After separating from Li Niu and the others, Ji Liu walked into the breakfast shop, which was only open in the morning and closed in the afternoon.

In recent days, Dai Mengyun has been busy in the shop besides running the wine shop, seeing Ji Liu coming in from the backyard, he stopped talking with the shopkeeper and entertained Ji Liu.

The two entered the back kitchen in the backyard, where it was in full swing. Besides soy milk and tofu nao, there were also a group of people producing dried tofu.Put the granulated soybean milk that has been marinated into the mold, and compact it with a heavy object. After a period of time, after the water is drained, the mold is opened and it becomes dried tofu.

There are many derivatives of soybeans, in addition to the above three, there are soy sauce, fermented bean curd, stinky tofu, bean paste and tempeh.In the past, in addition to making livestock feed, the cooks in the military camps simply cooked soybeans and added salt to feed the soldiers.However, soybeans are not easy to digest and have a strong beany smell. Although the soldiers had no choice but complained a lot.

This year, thanks to Xiong Jinghai's policy, many people in Chizhou have planted soybeans. Not only can the leftover beans be used as a tax deduction, but also as a snack for the family. The effect of this policy is already very good, but Ji Liu's idea is far from that.

Dai Mengyun said, "Although this shop is making a lot of money every day, it may take more than ten years to sell all the remaining soybeans."

The amount of soybeans planted in the entire state capital is really considerable. Even if he can make soy sauce, fermented bean curd and other soybean products all by hand, he cannot consume all these soybeans.

Therefore, although Dai Mengyun was helping out in the shop quietly, he actually wanted to see what Ji Liu could do to turn these soybeans into something yellow and white.

"Brother Dai, restrain your eyes!"

After the two got close, Ji Liu treated him as his own and spoke more casually.

"Haha!" Dai Mengyun laughed, "It's so easy to talk to smart people, what does Young Madam want to do with the soybeans stored in the warehouse?"

"Want to know?" Ji Liu teased, blinking her peachy eyes, Dai Mengyun's relaxed appearance made Dai Mengyun even more curious.

He rarely replied honestly, "I want to know."

Ji Liu raised his foot to go out, "If you want to know, follow along, I'll show you."

After the two entered the store, Cheng Cheng went to find a carriage, and everyone boarded the carriage and went to the outer city together.

Along the way, the sound of the carriage rolling over the bluestone slab echoed in my ears, and the carriage was driving smoothly without any bumps.Dai Mengyun's expression was very relaxed, "In the past, I also wanted to change Yuzhou into this appearance, but in the end, it seemed that nothing could be done except for the people to cause chaos. Yuzhou has not changed, and it is still so poor."

Cheng Xing comforted him, "Master Dai, Yuzhou has a clean and honest official style. The officials are cautious in their words and deeds, and they are upright. They are upright and clean. This is all thanks to you and Brother Bai."

"However, this has not changed Yuzhou fundamentally. As long as Yuzhou is still poor, making it impossible for re-elected officials to get promoted, the corruption and bribery will never stop even if it does not exist now."

"So Yuzhou should develop like Chizhou." Lifting the curtain of the car, Ji Liu lifted the curtain with one hand to let him look out, and happened to pass by a small vendor's stall, "Brother Dai, look, this little What are you selling?"

"It's just hemp rope." Dai Mengyun glanced at it and said.

Nodding, Ji Liu said, "That's right, it is indeed hemp rope, so what is it in his hand?"

Dai Mengyun took a closer look, the guy who sold the hemp rope was knitting something fast in his hand, he was looking carefully at the corner of his booth, there were several rope baskets and small baskets.

"Baskets and baskets made of hemp rope?"

Sister Chun smiled, "Master Dai was born as a literati, so I don't understand these things. Our young master had someone count the types of hemp trees in Yuzhou before, and found that there are many kinds of hemp trees growing in Yuzhou. Some of the hemp trees are tall and tall. Strong, well-developed stems and leaves, wide stems and leaves, can be used as raw materials for making summer cattail fans after smoking and roasting, and the hemp tree paper strips are soft, full of toughness, and not easy to break. After dividing the hemp leaves according to the veins, the inside The tough silk is very strong and full of toughness. The items made of such hemp leaves are very durable, and the hemp leaves grown from hemp trees can also replace the writing paper of poor people. Use charcoal pens on the treated hemp leaves Writing can clearly leave traces, and for these, our young master has already left manpower in Yuzhou to carefully classify and process the hemp leaves."

Dai Mengyun's eyes glowed. His hometown is Yuzhou. Although Yuzhou is very poor, the status of Yuzhou in his heart is unmatched by any place.

"But the real thing?"

"Can I still fool you?" Ji Liu smiled. The hemp tree in Yuzhou is an important source of raw materials for many industries. Such important raw materials are all over the mountains and plains of Yuzhou, and they are inexhaustible. The development of Yuzhou is just around the corner. .

While the four of them were talking, the carriage had already arrived at the outer city, where workshops had sprung up one after another, covering a vast area. When designing the outer city, Ji Liu considered the use and future development of the workshops in the future, and deliberately reserved enough area.

After getting out of the carriage and stepping on the fine gravel road, Ji Liu only felt that after all the workshops in the outer city were completed in the future, all the roads here would have to be replaced with bluestone roads. The city produces precious and fragile objects, and the objects are easily damaged when walking on such a road.

But the premise of these plans is money, and he has to work hard to make money.

Everyone passed through the workshop under construction, and came to a workshop with a prominent black door. A plaque was hung on the top of the door, and the word "Oil Workshop" was written on it.

When Dai Mengyun saw this, his eyes widened subconsciously, "Can soybeans be used to extract oil?"

Seeing his expression, Cheng and Chun covered their mouths and snickered, and Ji Liu also raised the corners of his mouth, and gave him a definite answer, "Soybeans can be used to extract oil."

Entering the workshop, there are already tons of soybeans waiting to be processed. In Ji Liu's eyes, the ancient method of oil extraction is a magical existence in Dai Mengyun's eyes.

A barrel of oil barrels full of refined oil was lined up in front of everyone, with a label on it saying Fuzhou oil, and a slender willow leaf label underneath.

"Although this oil has a stronger soybean taste, the price of soybeans is low, so soybean oil is cheaper than other types of oil. We target ordinary people, so the market is huge, so there is no need to worry about the sales of soybean oil. Moreover, large Adding chopped green onion or Chinese prickly ash to the soybean oil after heating it can effectively remove the soybean flavor of the soybean oil, and you only need to inform the seller of this when selling oil, and in the future, only soybeans will be the only item in Chezhou, which will definitely bring considerable income to the local people.”

"Young Madam, Dai admires it! It is a great fortune in life to have the honor to meet Young Madam!"

The soybean oil squeezed by the workers has a unique aroma in the air, and the golden soybean oil flows out from the oil tank. This is the beauty of the development of skills. Dai Mengyun only feels comfortable physically and mentally. He only feels that following Ji Liu is his creation. There is no one of the most correct decisions.

"Brother Dai is polite, and I will rely on Brother Dai a lot in the future."

Coming out of the oil workshop, Ji Liu is going to visit the rabbit farm. He has never been to the rabbit farm since he was pregnant and gave birth to a child. This little thing that was almost flooded in Jiangzhou is now continuously bringing him wealth. .

As soon as he entered the door, Ji Liu was amazed by the clean and tidy rabbit farm. No matter where it was, he only felt that the farm must be smelly, because there were a lot of animals living in a limited space, and the smell of excrement It's sure to turn heads.

But there is no place here, Dai Mengyun is obviously more familiar with this place than Ji Liu, the staff of the rabbit farm saw Dai Mengyun and saluted him skillfully.

Dai Mengyun took two quick steps to show Ji Liu, "I found a few experienced old farmers, and they said that the place where rabbits are raised must be clean and ventilated, otherwise the rabbits will get sick and die. Therefore, there are people excreting feces from rabbits here every day." They are cleaned specially, and the rabbit cages are also cleaned specially, and what they eat are dried hay and clean water.”

"These little things are so cute." Sister Chun stood in front of a cage, and the cage in front of her contained a pure white long-haired rabbit.This rabbit has no stray hairs on its body, with two red eyes, slightly shaking nose and mouth, which makes Sister Chun call it cute.

"Take it back if you like it, keep it and play with it, everything around here belongs to my wife."

"Brother Dai likes borrowing flowers to present Buddha so much." Ji Liu's peachy eyes were full of smiles, "Take it away if you like it."

"Master Xie, thank you Master Dai."

An old man came up from behind, opened the rabbit cage, and took the rabbit out, "Your nobleman, you must hold the rabbit by its ears, otherwise it will run away and ordinary people will not be able to catch it."

"You're welcome, I'm not a noble person." Sister Chun saluted lightly, "Thank you very much."

Sister Chun imitated the old man's technique and hugged the rabbit into her arms, her beautiful face was filled with excitement, "Master, look how cute it is!"

Cheng Cheng didn't speak behind his back. Although he also thought these rabbits were cute, when he thought of the two wolf cubs who were regarded as wolf dogs by the young master at home, he felt that these rabbits were not so cute anymore, and they would eventually turn into a pile when they were taken home. bones.

But obviously, Sister Chun didn't remember that there were two "dangerous animals" at home.

"You take it out and wait for us." Ji Liu said.

"Yes, master." Sister Chun walked out with the rabbit in her arms, her steps were brisk, and she looked extremely happy.

Dai Mengyun smiled and continued to lead Ji Liu to visit. In the processing plant outside the farm, he knew why Ji Liu asked Chun to wait outside. The rows of dried rabbit meat were vast.

"..." Cheng Cheng sighed, "If Sister Chun sees these rabbits, I don't know if she will think the rabbits are cute."

Ji Liu didn't care much, "It's good for you to know, you don't need to tell her."

These rabbits keep for a long time after drying and are very good food during the long and cold winter in Chizhou.Only with sufficient food and firewood can the people of Chizhou live until the next spring.
