Chapter 131: Qin's new product

  Chapter 131 Qin Family New Product

  Pingkangfang, Yiguo Gongfu.

  The big house with more than 200 acres of land has many houses.

  Qin Lang brought more than 300 disaster victims back to the mansion. Yuxiao was shocked. When Qin Lang said that he wanted to take in and rescue these disaster victims, he was stunned and expressed his support after the meeting. Her family was ruined, and she was reduced to a teaching workshop from the daughter of an official, so she is very clear about the situation of these people now.

   Ask A Huang to greet the cooks and cooks in Fuchu's back kitchen to start cooking.

   "Fortunately, we just got a few hundred stone grains from Sili." Ah Huang said.

The last time Qin Lang distributed the Fusi small treasury, he distributed 300 shi of food to himself, and then sent 100 shi to the Duke of Qi's mansion, and kept 200 shi for himself. In addition to what was stored in the mansion before, the food is not enough now. lack.

  Looking at the filthy and smelly disaster victims, Qin Lang sighed.

"Cooking over there, don't be idle here, boil more water, and then give them all a bath, remember to wash their hair, and it's best to cook their clothes that they took off. "

In autumn and August, the weather turned cooler, but it was still quite hot at noon. These people had been sleeping outside for a while, and they were already filthy and even smelly. Qin Lang also saw many people scratching their heads and scratching their heads. Sao, it looks like there are fleas and lice growing on his body.

   This thing is very common in this era, but Qin Lang felt his scalp tingle when he looked at it. These small things are actually the most susceptible to diseases.

  The disaster victims looked at the luxurious Duke Yi's mansion and listened to Qin Lang's arrangements, and at this moment they finally believed that this young prince is a great kind person.

  Separate men and women and place each in a courtyard, then set up pots, bring vats, and start bathing them.

   Some men said that in this weather, there is no need to waste firewood time, just dig a well and wash it with water. Qin Lang refused. He didn't want to save this little hot water. Not only that, he also specially asked people to shovel a lot of ashes from the kitchen stove.

  These stove ashes are plant ash, which has a good effect on washing hair and bathing, and can remove oil and stains.

   "Ah Huang, ask the old gentleman in our house to prescribe some insecticide, and you will send someone to catch it immediately."

  Qin Lang invited an old gentleman in his residence, he was a doctor with good medical skills, he was regarded as the personal doctor of guest of honor, Qin Lang thought of him at this moment.

In the courtyard, Qin Lang saw that the large tanks that were originally used for water storage and firefighting were all filled with hot water, and men and boys sat in the water with their buttocks naked, their hot skin turned red, and their teeth bared. He grinned, but felt warm in his heart.

  Doing good deeds always makes people happy.

  The insecticide powder prepared by the family doctor was sprinkled into the water tank, and loofahs were thrown to them.

   "Wash, wash cleanly, loosen the hair, two groups, rub each other, don't get up if it is not clean."

   A large tank of water was already dirty in a short while, with a thick layer of grease floating on it.

Seeing that their hair was not clean after washing and washing, Qin Lang wanted them to cut their hair, but some people refused, so he had no choice but to let them wash it with plant ash for a few more times, and then apply insecticide to continue. Scrub.

  The water was changed twice, and then flushed with well water.

   After nearly half an hour of tossing, it was finally clean.

  The original clothes of these people were too dirty and torn, and Qin Lang directly ordered them to be thrown into the fire and burned. It wasn't that he disliked the dirty and torn clothes, but that there were too many parasites on them, so they simply burned them.

  The disaster victims washed clean and finally put on the clothes of the servants and maidservants of Duke Yi's mansion. Although they were coarse cloth clothes, they were clean and tidy, much better than their original clothes.

  My body is dry and clean, there are no lice crawling on my head, no fleas crawling around on my body, and even the mud under my nails has been washed clean.

  The disaster victims who lined up to accept Qin Lang's review sang songs with their stomachs gurgling.

   "Ah Huang, is the meal ready?"

   "Back to Saburo, it's ready. According to Saburo's instructions, these people have been hungry for a long time, so they didn't prepare meaty and hard food. I was afraid that they would not be able to digest it. I prepared gruel and egg drop soup."

Qin Lang nodded in satisfaction, "Line up in line, go to eat, remember, here, you have to follow my rules, you have to line up for meals, you have to pay attention to hygiene, you have to wash your hands before and after meals, it's hot now, every day You have to take a bath and wipe your body, wash your hair once every three days, and change your underwear every day!"

  Yu Xiao brought Lu Zhu and waited for a few people around her to come over, and was very surprised to see that everyone was completely new, and the queue was orderly.

   "It feels like they've been reborn."

   "Everyone was originally a good man, but suffered from disaster and starved for a long time. After washing up, they will return to their original appearance."

   Ah Huang was there to direct.

  The disaster victims line up and go to get everyone's bowls and chopsticks first. These bowls and chopsticks are for personal use. After meals, they must wash them by themselves and keep them well.

  Each person also issued a number, which is their code name in the Duke Yi's mansion.

   Line up and get a bowl of vegetable porridge and a bowl of egg drop soup for each person.

   "Can you give me more?" a man asked.

   "Eat first, and you can queue up to call after you finish eating."

  Yu Xiao looked at the large group of people and asked Qin Lang, "How does Sanlang plan to arrange them?"

  Qinlang has 20,000 mu of land, of which 6,000 mu is near Gyeonggi, 3,000 mu is at the foot of Zhongnan Mountain, and 3,000 mu is beside the Baiqu in Weibei. But now that the Turkic invasion is about to approach the city of Chang'an, all the country manors outside the city are not safe.

   Most importantly, Qin Lang did not intend to buy these people.

  In his opinion, buying people as slaves now is no different from forcing a good man into prostitution. He, Qin Lang, is not a noble person, but in this situation, he doesn't want to take advantage of it.

  He can't be a beacon of the times like Wei Zheng's Confucian elites, but he is willing to work hard if he says that if you are poor, you will be alone, and if you are rich, you will benefit the world.

  The world is so big, I don’t care about places that are too far away, but since I see it around me, I have to help if I can. If in this world, everyone could show more kindness to those around them, wouldn't the world be a better place.

   "I plan to hire them for the time being, provide two meals a day, plus some wages." Qin Lang thought for a while.

"But our family doesn't need so many people to work now?" Yu Xiao said, there are more than 300 people, and there are old and weak women and children, and children account for a lot of them. It is said that they are hired to work, but in fact they are shelters and relief in disguise. up.

  Qin Lang thinks words like shelter and relief are not good, and it is better to hire. Relief represents charity, while employment represents a labor supply and demand relationship.

  In fact, if it is not a last resort, who is willing to accept alms? Accepting alms often means losing dignity. Therefore, the ancients once said that they would starve to death without eating the food that came.

   "I plan to organize everyone to make some dry food." Qin Lang thought for a while and said.

   "Do dry food?"

   This is not Qin Lang's whim, but just thinking about it all the time. After all, with so many hundreds of people at home, you can't just keep them like this. It's not that you can't afford it, it's just that this is not a healthy model.

  After much deliberation, Qin Lang came up with a plan, which was to organize everyone to make some dry food.

  Right now is a time of war, and dry food is very useful. It is easy to store and transport food processed into dry food, and some dry food has the effect of resisting hunger.

  In fact, the ancients had a lot of dry food, such as embarrassment, dried radish bricks, and steamed wheat rice, etc., but these dry food didn't feel very good to Qin Lang.

He thought of several kinds of dry food, such as fried noodles, dried meat floss, etc. For example, fried noodles were common dry food for frontier soldiers in the Ming Dynasty. Also, half a catty of almonds and fried noodles.

   Meat floss is a magic weapon for the Mongols to conquer Europe and Asia. It is said that all the meat floss made from a cow can be put into the urine of that cow, and then there is no need to bring food for a month or two.

   It is said that when New China resisted US aggression and aided Korea, the whole army was still allowed to carry fried noodles as dry food.

  However, there are various recipes for fried noodles. The core is actually to fry rice, wheat, beans and other ground flour with salt, so that you don’t need to light a fire when eating.

   Another advantage of such fried noodles is that after adding salt, there is no need to carry additional salt, which can well replenish the soldiers' physical strength.

Of course, if you want to make some seasonings that are convenient to carry, it is also possible. For example, in this era, salt has been processed into a salt chimney for easy portability, or fermented soybeans are mashed into mud, salted and dried to make cakes, which are as big as jujubes at a time. Eat one piece, it can be used as a pickle.

  Or soak coarse cloth in concentrated vinegar, dry it in the sun and then soak it, and finally you can get vinegar cloth, which is easy to carry. When you want to eat, just cut off a small piece and throw it into the pot to cook with the food, you can get the sour taste.

  Even if it is on the border, when there is a shortage of food, you can cook pine bark and rice together until it is extremely cooked, and you can satisfy your hunger.

  The fried noodles that Qin Lang likes are actually the same as the snack oil tea in later generations.

  If you want to make a luxurious version, you can add various nuts and seasonings, etc. The taste is naturally excellent. If it is a simple version, flour, millet, soybeans, and salt.

It’s even good to have an anti-hunger version. You can directly grind wheat, rice, millet, beans and other whole grains into powder without shelling, add salt, and stir-fry them to satisfy your hunger. You can even add some dried wild vegetables, grain bran, etc. Does not affect hunger.

  Anyway, this thing can be drunk as porridge after adding boiling water, and it can be stirred into porridge with a little water. It is easy to carry and easy to handle without making a fire.

  Yu Xiao was a little puzzled.

   "We have enough food in our house, why do we still have to make this fried noodles?"

  Qin Lang said his plan, "I'm going to study the recipe of this fried noodles carefully, and develop fried noodles with various recipes, which can be used as disaster relief food for the common people, and can also be used as dry food for my soldiers in the Tang Dynasty."

Qin Lang plans to make a regular version first. The raw materials are wheat, millet, rice, and beans, which are ground into powder, and then fried with salt and mutton oil. Of course, it would be best if you could add some fish powder, or grind some pine needle powder into it, which could also supplement trace elements and prevent night blindness.

  This recipe saves the most food.

  Qin Lang's mansion has hundreds of shi of rice and wheat. If these grains and chaff are added, it is estimated that thousands of shi of fried noodles can be made.

   Just happened to be dismissed from office because of the brawl in the hall, and I was thinking behind closed doors at home, so let's make fried noodles at home. If it succeeds, it can also become the new type of dry food for the Tang Dynasty. If it is popularized in the army, it can also contribute to the fight against the Turks.

  Qin Lang did as he said.

   While writing down the recipe himself, he arranged for Ah Huang and others to purchase some other raw materials, as well as some processing tools. On the same day, Qin Lang's Duke Yi's mansion had already set up a fried noodle production line.

   The milling of flour, the fried noodles of fried noodles, the packaging of packaging, the busy is in full swing!
