Chapter 56: For the Pancakes (Part 1)
More than 1,000 special carts were gone, and Zhang De had no choice but to grit his teeth and let his feet push the wheelbarrow to transport grain. Now the price of grain is very cheap, as soon as he heard that Huaiyuan was wronged, the rich man of Guanluo immediately sold it out like chicken blood.
There are a number of gangsters who have something to do with the Gangsters, and they also patted their chests and told the director of the China Resources that as long as you buy all the grain, you will be given a winery.
That's all there is to the Hetao, it's okay for you to close a wine shop, and you don't have to be arrested by the imperial court, it's above board.
But in Chang'an, it's different, you have to close a wine shop, don't talk about the way, just encounter one or two emperor's whim prohibition, die.
In general, doing something that cannot be done in the Central Plains in the Hetao is purely stained with the light of barbarianism.
In short, the grassland produces Datang manufacturing.
In short, exports turn to domestic sales.
You can do this thing of winemaking, the Hetao wine utensils are also complete, and the grade of wine and medicine is not bad. There are seventeen or eighteen kinds of liquor alone, and the intensity varies from high to low.
The copper stills are all owned by the government, and after the closure of the brewery, this wine vessel is also rented.
However, Zhang De is not interested in this, instead of making soju, it is better to engage in alcohol directly. At least there are many places where industrial production is used, and there is also medical disinfection.
It's just that special glassware is still very troublesome to make, and Zhang De doesn't have a strong will.
Before deciding to extract something strange, or need to use nitro compounds, Lao Zhang didn't plan to get a set of alcohol purification equipment.
Therefore, in the days without Li Simo, Zhang De not only taught the bear children four arithmetic, but also started the daily work of engineering dogs.
He wanted to eat pancakes......
In the Tang Dynasty, it was not easy to eat pancakes and fruits. First of all, it is necessary to make an iron plate for spreading pancakes, and it is not impossible to cast iron. But if you want to make an iron plate that is thin and durable, it will be a bit of a test of ironmaking and mold level. So to save some effort. Zhang De used a hydraulic forging machine to make an iron plate for spreading pancakes, which was basically ...... Can be used as plate armor.
If you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your tools, which is just a solution to the production tools, and you also need to use a stove to spread pancakes, and a heat source that does not change drastically.
This requires a sturdy furnace and a screening of anthracite with uniform particle size.
However, at this time, it is still difficult for a good woman to cook without rice, because you don't have good flour. Especially mung bean noodles.
Although there are a lot of soya beans in Hetao, there are not many mung beans, and Zhang De guesses that red beans may be more festive than mung beans. Moreover, the tax reduction of red beans per acre of land is one bucket more than that of mung beans.
Bean grinding flour relies on ordinary stone grinding, and there is no way to make fine flour. At this time, we had to use a water-powered mill to grind day and night to get fine flour.
The same is true for wheat flour, after mixing the two things according to the proportion, you want the taste. Get some more soil alkali...... Of course, Lao Zhang didn't pursue the taste, so he didn't add it.
At this stage, it is only the process of making pancakes. There is also a large head is the fruit, which can be thin and crispy. It can be a fritter, but whether it is a crunchy or fritters, vegetable oil needs to be used.
It's not that animal oil can't. Rather, it is fried fritters and fruits in animal oil, which Zhang De does not like to eat.
So. In order to eat the perfect pancake fruit in his mind, Lao Zhang had to build another set of oil presses. Of course, it's still hydraulic. When the oil is precipitated, it is very troublesome to filter the dregs, and if the impurities are not cleared, it is easy to produce a burnt bitter taste in the frying process.
But in order to eat, these are not problems, and the strainer made of silk is still very good. As for whether these silks seem to have been rewarded by the emperor or the crown prince, don't care about these details......
In fact, Zhang De quite likes shrimp skin, so in order to be delicious, he made shrimp pots in the Han Canal, and after scavenging a few small freshwater shrimp, they were fried into dry shrimp and then slightly crushed.
As for the Turks, they imitated making shrimp pots to catch fish, and it was about birds......
Fortunately, the sauce in the Tang Dynasty was not bad, at least there were dead eunuchs in the inner mansion who specialized in making sauces.
As for coriander...... He is going to strongly condemn Zhang Qian, the head of the Han Dynasty. You said that if you go to the Western Regions, you will go to the Western Regions, and you have nothing to do with it, what are you doing when you bring coriander, an anti-human plant, back to China?
Then Lao Zhang felt that the layering of the taste was still poor, but unfortunately there was no mustard, but Zhang De wittily used the cabbage sum to pickle, which was better than the taste of mustard, tender and crispy, and refreshing.
For a set of pancake fruits, Lao Zhang paid a lot of sweat, but it was all worth it.
Holding the pancakes and taking a bite of the fruit, looking at the Taotao Yellow River, Lao Zhang sighed with emotion: "The Sprinkle family is worth it in this life." ”
I'm so busy that I can't make my own pancakes and fruits every day. Besides, if he is seen making pancakes, the people of the Ministry of Rites will start working again, he is a nobleman!
There was no way, Lao Zhang had to find a good boy from Tongren Medical Hall who was diligent and studious but couldn't learn anything, and Pang Quan, who met the number three and had a 90% probability of answering nine, dropped out of the school with honor.
"Mountain chief, the pancake fruit is ready."
"Well, put it down, and get out."
"Oh."
I took a bite, and it was still spicy......
It's crispy and fragrant, and that feeling is like first love.
The school opened for lunch break, and the children at the entrance of the canteen lined up in an orderly manner, and the front was in full swing, Pang Que spread a spoonful of batter on the iron plate with lightning speed, and then spread it quickly, and the batter exuded an attractive fragrance.
"Brother Pang, I want two chickens, I want two!"
"Shallot or?"
"Yes!"
"Shallot or?"
"Yes!"
"Shopee or?"
"Yes! Want! Want! Both! ”
"Take it and be careful."
"Brother Xie Pang."
"Stepslave, you also eat pancake fruit?"
"Da Lang's craftsmanship is good, I eat something else, and now it is very tasteless. Da Lang, can you spare me a chicken? ”
"Nope."
"Spare me."
"Do you want more?"
"Yes, yes......"
Soon, another set of pancake fruits came out. Inside and outside the cafeteria, there was a cheerful atmosphere, and the teenagers were full of motivation, feeling that the afternoon class was completely out of the question.
"Anu'anu, where's it?"
Outside the school, Ashina Yinchu pulled Xue Zhaonu, and the bun face was still holding half a pancake fruit in his hand.
"Whoa."
Anu broke free of Yin Chu's hand and pointed to the canteen in line.
"Oops! You Han Chinese are so interesting! ”
Yin Chu spicy brewing, suddenly made a group of bear children ashamed of themselves, and couldn't help but lower their heads. The proud princess walked up to Pang Que very sassily, smiled like a crescent moon, and said cheerfully: "Hurry up and make one for me." ”
The people in line took the initiative to get out of the way, but they saw Pang Que expressionless: "Line up." ”
"Huh?"
Yin Chu was stunned.
"Queuing and cutting in line violates the discipline of the school."
"I'm a princess!"
Pearl Hong suddenly puffed his waist, "Even your mountain chief has to spoil me, I am your mountain chief's wife, do I have to line up?" ”
"Hmm."
Pang Que nodded very seriously: "The mountain chief has instructed that a good boy should be disciplined. ”
“……”
Xue Zhaonu silently nibbled on the pancake fruit, and then silently turned around and left. Because she knew that the spicy Turkic princess would come out soon.
Sitting at the door and just finished nibbling on the last piece of pancake fruit, Yin Chu whimpered and rushed out of the door: "Zhang Caozhi, you negative man, you won't even give me a pancake-" (To be continued.) )
PS: Coriander is a biochemical weapon, and I don't accept it.
