Imperial Study

    Three sealed black jars neatly placed on the bookcase.

    Emperor Yuwen Yuwen Longyan looked at the three jars in confusion.

     Secretly said, "Could it be that these three jars are wine? Is it the red wine Jiang Aiqing said?"

    Thinking, he wanted to open one of the jars.

     Eunuch Zhang, who was standing beside him, was so frightened that he hurriedly shouted in horror, "Your Majesty, can't you?"

      Sorry.

    After Eunuch Zhang exclaimed, the emperor's hand did not stop and continued to unpack.

     Eunuch Zhang stepped forward quickly and said, "Your Majesty, let the old slave come to dismantle it?"

    Speaking, he stretched his hand forward, making a gesture to grab the jar from the emperor's hand and stop the emperor's movements.

    But the emperor seemed very relieved about the contents of the black jar, he said, "Eunuch Zhang, don't worry, I will be fine."

    As soon as he spoke, the sealed black jar was opened.

    The emperor looked inside, it was a yellowish-brown liquid, and then sniffed it with his nose, but what he smelled was not the smell of wine, but a refreshing fragrance. Smell, he had never smelled it.

    The emperor was even more puzzled.

    Red wine, red wine, as the name suggests, is red wine; wine, wine, no matter what kind of wine, there should be a smell of wine.

    But the things in the jar, neither of them occupy.

    He looked at Eunuch Zhang and said, "Eunuch Zhang, come and smell it, is there any alcohol? Why can't I smell alcohol? Could it be that there is something wrong with my nose?"

     Eunuch Zhang listened, carefully leaned over, shrank his nose, sniffed the smell of the contents of the jar, and then said, "Go back to your majesty, the old slave only smells a cool smell in the jar. Fragrance, not a trace of alcohol."

    Afterwards, he looked at the altar again and asked with the same doubt, "Your Majesty, what exactly is in this altar?"

    The emperor shook his head, immediately thought of something, and then found a letter from the desk.

    He opened the letter impatiently.

    After reading the letter, the emperor's eyes suddenly lit up, and his expression was also very vivid. Then, with excitement and excitement, he said to Eunuch Zhang, "Eunuch Zhang, take this jar to the The imperial kitchen, let the imperial chef use this thing to cook and eat, I will eat the food made from this thing tonight!"

    When the emperor finished speaking, Eunuch Zhang was extremely surprised.

    His face was full of panic and said, "No, Your Majesty! Who knows what is in this jar, this thing is cooking, in case..." What if he died of poisoning do it?

    The emperor took the letter and looked at it again, and said, "Eunuch Zhang, don't worry, this is cooking oil! It can be eaten and cooked."

     Eunuch Zhang was taken aback, "Oil?" What oil? Is it lard? But lard is used for cooking every day?

    The emperor did not explain, but said, "Eunuch Zhang, what are you doing, and you don't carry your things to the imperial kitchen!"

    "Yes, Your Majesty!" Eunuch Zhang respectfully and fearfully carried a black jar of oil into the imperial kitchen.

    As for whether this oil will eat dead people, the people in the imperial kitchen will identify it.

    After Eunuch Zhang went down, the emperor took the letter and said quietly, "Peanut oil? That Lin Yuelan is indeed a very smart woman."

    No one ever thought that peanuts could make oil, but she could, and even made an oil press.

    The emperor was very puzzled, "Lin Yuelan, who are you? Why do you seem to know everything?"

    The emperor let Lin Yuelan go to develop, because this country is still very backward compared to other countries. .

    So, he is eager to change the status quo, to make the people rich, the country strong, the country strong and the people rich, in order to dominate the world, this is the ambition of every emperor.

    He did too.

    Although he is in his 60s, his ambition to dominate the world has never stopped.

    So, after seeing Jiang Zhennan's military talents, he will focus on cultivating him, and because of Jiang Zhennan's character, will he trust Jiang Zhennan.

    Of course, those in positions of authority will have doubts, especially Yuwen Longyan, who has completely entered the old age, and the suspicion is even heavier.

    If Lin Yuelan would be her peasant daughter and develop her own agriculture, he would not object to her marrying Jiang Zhennan, but if Lin Yuelan could threaten him a little, then he would never Be kind and gentle.

    Only now, he needs someone like Lin Yuelan.

     Eunuch Zhang heard that the black jar was oil. When he carried the things into the imperial kitchen, he immediately asked the imperial chef to see what the oil was made of?

    The royal chef was more careful. Listening to Eunuch Zhang's words, the sage said that this thing was oil, and that he had to use oil for cooking, so he immediately asked someone to lead a dog over.

    Mix a large piece of meat with this oil and let the dog eat it.

    After about a quarter of an hour, the dog is still alive and well and in better spirits, and looking at the dog's tongue, sniff, and nose actions, you know that it is still looking for something just now.

    The royal chef said, "Eunuch Zhang, it seems that this oil is not poisonous!"

     Dogs are more sensitive than humans to poison.

    If it is really poisonous, after the dog eats it, it will not look for it again.

    Eunuch Zhang asked, "Liu Yuchu, are you sure? Your Majesty said this is oil and can be used for cooking. Can you spot what kind of oil it is?"

    The royal chef took a closer look, sniffed, shook his head and said, "Eunuch Zhang, I don't know what kind of oil this is. But the sage said that this thing can be used for cooking, I believe Your Majesty is very concerned about this thing. There are numbers."

    Otherwise, the food you need to eat, even if you don't even have it checked, will be sent to the imperial kitchen.

    So, it can only be said that His Majesty is very clear about the origin of this thing, and it is very clear who sent this thing, and it will not be manipulated in the middle.

    Eunuch Zhang heard what the royal chef said, and immediately reacted, but he was still not at ease, "Even so, we have to be careful. If something happens to your majesty, we will Everyone must fall to the ground!"

    Liu Yuchu thought about it and said, "Eunuch Zhang, I can save it."

    Zhang Gong said, "Well, the miscellaneous family will retire!"

    "Eunuch Zhang please!" The royal chef said respectfully.

     

    "Yes!"

     

    How to do the imperial dining room, there is no need for the emperor to worry about it.

    Looking at the letter, he suddenly had the urge to go to Taoyuan Village to take a look.

    It's just that he is the emperor after all, so he can't export at will, so he must carefully consider and arrange the matter of going to Taoyuan Village.

    …

    Lin Yuelan and Jiang Zhennan didn't care how the emperor reacted to the peanut oil.

    Anyway, this peanut oil passed through his secret guards, and they didn't care whether to eat it or not.

    However, what I didn't expect was that just because of the three jars of peanut oil, His Majesty the emperor had plans to go to Taoyuan Village.

    Because the oil press was made successfully, and the oil was successfully squeezed out.

    Therefore, Lin Yuelan immediately let her subordinates do the rest of the peanuts.

    The oil that was squeezed out, Lin Yuelan asked special personnel to quickly deliver it to various restaurants and managers of major industries.

    For her subordinates, especially her right-hand man, she never hesitates to share good things with them.

    Then she asked the people in the wood workshop to make a few more oil presses!

    There is only one oil press, and it will be too busy to use it when the peanut harvest season.

    The cooperation with Liu Yichen, as long as Liu Yichen receives enough peanuts, can cooperate at any time, both parties benefit.

    As for Liu Yichen's arrangement, and how the peanut oil squeezed out is sold, Lin Yuelan will not ask at all.

    After the oil press was finished, Lin Yuelan wanted to make a machine for making vermicelli.

    Rice noodles, sweet potato noodles, potato noodles, etc. When she thought of all kinds of noodles, Lin Yuelan suddenly missed her very much and wanted to eat it even more.

    It's just by chance that she saw the design and manufacturing process of the horizontal wedge oil press, which can be used as a vermicelli machine, but she has never seen it.

    If you just make vermicelli by hand, it is very simple.

    For example, sweet potato flour, mainly mash the sweet potatoes, then add water, filter, filter the sweet potato residue, and leave the turbid water, when the turbid liquid settles down, it becomes sweet potato starch .

    Pour off the water, then use a fine gauze to pack the starch, hang it up and drop the water, when it feels that there is no water at all, then open the gauze, mash the starch inside and take out Go out in the sun.

    After the starch is completely dried, you can make a paste.

    The so-called paste is sweet potato flour mixed with a certain proportion of water, usually a pound of starch mixed with 2.5 to 3 pounds of cold water, and placed in a basin.

    Put the pot into the pot and boil, stirring constantly, until the maturity reaches 80 to 90%.

    After making a paste, put it into the dry starch, which can be mixed with 20kg of starch noodles

    Finally, there are leaks.

     

    Before leaking, you must also check whether the dough is suitable.

    If the leaked vermicelli is not thick or thin, it is appropriate to continue.

    If the strip is too fast or too slow, you must add dry or wet powder.

    There is also a colander to prepare a colander, 48 holes, and two pots and two cold water tanks.

     

    When the starch ball is out of hand, grab a ball and let it fall down naturally.

    When the wire leaks, prepare a pot of boiling water, and the wire will leak only when the water in the pot is boiling.

    When the silk strips emerge from the bottom of the pot, they can be out of the pot, and then go through a cold water tank to cool down, and thread them into a bundle by hand to the wooden stick, and pass another cold water tank without cooling. , keep swinging until the vermicelli is loose.

    Finally, the silk drying. Take the vermicelli to dry in the leeward sun.

    Lin Yuelan knows these traditional ways of making sweet potato vermicelli, all thanks to a capable grandmother.

    For Lin Yuelan, her grandmother is almost omnipotent.

    Because she wanted to eat sweet potato vermicelli once when she was a child, her grandmother made very authentic and pure red vermicelli for her to eat.

    Her grandmother was worried that the sweet potato vermicelli sold outside was not clean, so she was willing to do it herself for the sake of her precious granddaughter.

    Lin Yuelan remembers that since her grandmother made sweet potato vermicelli, she has become obsessed with eating vermicelli, whether it is for meals or cooking, every meal must have vermicelli.

    This manual vermicelli making is really simple and simple. To say it is complicated is that this thing is too time-consuming and labor-intensive.

    If she just cooks and eats herself, there is no doubt that Lin Yuelan will choose to make it by hand.

    However, if you want to sell to the outside world, it is only labor, and it is simply too busy.

    So, Lin Yuelan thought to see if she could make a machine for making vermicelli.

    "Ah..." In the room, two people, one big and one small, were doing exactly the same movements, leaning their chins on the table, their eyes confused, and sighing at the same time.

    Jiang Zhennan looked at the two of them, his eyes faintly showing a gentle and petite light, and then he smiled and said, "Okay, you two don't sigh here. I thought for a while. If you don't come out, don't think about it, let's go out and play!"

    Jiang Zhennan's so-called play is actually going to Daaoshan.

    Xiaolu listened, her eyes lit up, and she immediately echoed happily, "Okay, okay, sister, let's go to Dabiao to play. I haven't looked for Xiaobai for a long time, and I don't know about it. how have you been?"

    After turning from Xiaolu to a human being, according to Lin Yuelan's request, Xiaolu did not call her master, but called her sister directly.

    Lin Yuelan looked at the excited little green, nodded and replied, "Alright then. Let's go to Daaoshan to play!"

    For others, Daaoshan is a dangerous and unfathomable mountain, but for Lin Yuelan and Xiaolu, it is a paradise.

    Because when they get there, they don't have to hide themselves at all, they can play whatever they want.

    Little Green's favorite is to play with the animals and plants in the deep mountains, jumping happily, and outsiders will not know.

    After the three of them made up their minds, they quickly set off for Daaoshan.

    When you arrive at Daao Mountain, Lin Yuelan, let Xiaolu play freely.

    Lin Yuelan and Jiang Zhennan just smiled and watched Xiaolu jump up and down, as if they were a very happy and peaceful family of three.

    Jiang Zhennan looked at Xiaolu who was very happy, and said to Lin Yuelan with a smile, "Your Majesty said that Xiaolu is my son, and the three of us come out like a family of three!"

    Lin Yuelan blushed and said with a bit of coquettish anger, "Xiaolu is a son, then I am your daughter? Is it possible that you want to marry your daughter?"

    Jiang Zhennan laughed and said, "If Yue'er is willing, why not?"

    Lin Yuelan smiled and said, "Jiang Zhennan, you want to be beautiful!"

     

    Jiang Zhennan smiled again and said, "I prefer to be Yueer's husband instead of Yueer's father!"

    "Hmph, I really want to be beautiful!" Lin Yuelan said again with anger, and ran away.

    Jiang Zhennan immediately chased after him and said, "Yue'er, how can this be considered beautiful? You and I are already fiancées who have met their parents. If you don't marry me, marry me. For whom?"

     "Hmph, a beauty like me, anyone can marry if I want!"

    "Humph, except Jiang Zhennan, I see who dares to marry you! Whoever marries me will be abolished!"

    "You are so overbearing!"

    "Hey, you can't be overbearing!"

    The two played in the forest for a while, and when they were tired, they cuddled next to a small stream in the forest.

    Looking at the clear bottom of the creek and listening to the sound of clear running water, the two felt very peaceful inside.

     Neither of the two made a sound, enjoying this quiet moment.

    I don't know how long it took, Xiaolu came over.

    "Sister, brother-in-law!"

    There was something wrong with this voice, and the two of them immediately looked over, but saw his panicked expression.

    Lin Yuelan immediately asked, "Little Green, what's wrong?"

    According to Little Green's instinct, he rarely has such a panicked expression. I couldn't help but groan in my heart, and I had a bad premonition.

    But all of a sudden he smiled and shook his head again, and said, "Nothing! I just want to tease you!"

    Lin Yuelan immediately smiled and said, "Well, you little green, you have become a human, and you have become bad! You have also learned to scare your sister!"

    As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and gestured to hit the little green.

    Little Green immediately ran behind Jiang Zhennan, stretched out her head and said, "Sister, you can't hit me, you can't hit me!"

    Lin Yuelan immediately smiled and scolded, "Hmph, who said I couldn't hit you!"

    After finishing speaking, people also ran to Jiang Zhennan and wanted to go south, but Jiang Zhennan seemed to be protecting Xiaolu, and immediately turned around, Lin Yuelan fluttered.

    "Good you Jiang Zhennan, you even joined Xiaolu to bully me!"

    "No, no, Xiaolu's hands are too strong, I can't fight, Yue'er, you have to believe me!"

    "I don't believe it."

    A game of eagle catching chickens, played in the deep forest.
