Chapter 30: The Staff of Audoo
The development of canned food is only a small matter for Zhang De, and of course for the rulers, strengthening the depth and breadth of the army's operations is a necessity. The industrial chain doesn't have to worry about not being able to return to its original cost, the only thing to worry about is how many gluttons can be brought in to eat together in the whole process, and then it will not be handed over by Li Dongyin.
Fan Yang Lu's bloody lesson.
In the summer of the age of 16, Lao Zhang was busy in the fields of Cangzhou, guiding the local poor people to increase their children's protein intake.
"the father, this bamboo cage can still catch long fish?"
An old farmer wearing a hat stands barefoot with an iron nail rake in his hand. The old farmer is not a native of Cangzhou, but from Huainan Province, and his accent is very heavy, because there was something wrong with Huaishui, and he fled to Henan. As a result, a lot of Hebei people who fled last year came to Henan, so there was no way, and it happened that the Zheng and Bai clans of China Resources were recruiting farmers, so they went to Hebei.
The long fish he said is the common fish in Hebei, and there are also those who say Luo Yu Luo Eel, which is actually the yellow eel.
"Old man, just look at it."
Zhang De was also half-naked, revealing his strong muscles, the bee waist and ape's back were bronze, and those young peasant women who were doing some bits and pieces on the ridges of the fields suddenly chuckled and peeked, and their eyes were hot.
On the newly repaired official road, there was a carriage parked, and the carriage was covered with a curtain, but it was not stuffy inside, and it was really comfortable to bring out an ice urn.
Bai Jie was still embroidered in the car, and asked curiously: "Sister, how can Ah Lang still have such skills?" ”
"I don't know where I know, I even have the ability to roll in the mud."
Zheng Wan pressed the edge of a dough fan, and after the copper fan bone was compared, she put down the guy in her hand. whispered, "I heard a few days ago." There is a highness from the capital who asks Ah Lang for you and me. Fortunately, Ah Lang is not powerless. returned to His Highness, otherwise, I am afraid that I will end up in the tiger's den and wolf's den. ”
"Those princes like to travel the most, and when they are in Luoyang, they can't bear to be disturbed."
Bai Jie responded to the peace, and then heard an exclamation from the side of the irrigation canal, and the two ladies suddenly lifted a little curtain and looked over.
I saw Zhang De's fingers pinching a huge yellow eel the thickness of a baby's arm. Triumphantly picked it up and showed it around, and the sturdy farmers were all amazed.
"it, this ...... That's a huge thing. ”
"It's thick and long, so big!"
"It's so big, it's so big, it's so thick!"
Zhang De was very happy, this thick and long yellow eel was estimated to be able to have a catty of two or three taels. Definitely a huge thing.
"How about you wait and see? This bamboo cage only needs a few crickets, and the cage is released at night and gets up early to get out of the water. There is always some. Not only are ditches and rivers, but also ponds in front of houses and behind houses in the fields, and there are also eels. Then Zhang De said again. Although the eel is an ugly thing, most of the people in Zhumen don't like to eat it. But it's not a bad thing. ”
"It's a nourishing brute."
Lao Zhang smiled and stuffed the yellow eel into the cage, and then said. "There is a bamboo forest here, and there are hundreds of cages, but the food is not enough, and there is almost meat, and this eel is more exquisite than the cattle and sheep."
Because of disease prevention and epidemic prevention, China Resources and the farmers of various farms and farms know that parasites are very difficult to deal with, so those fishermen who love to eat yusheng do not eat it now, and they all eat cooked food.
There are a lot of parasites in yellow eels, and the eels that haunt this month are mostly leeches adsorbed on them, and there must be various small and slender parasites in the intestines. When slaughtering, you should also be careful.
However, the yellow eel supplement is not fake, the so-called "small summer yellow eel race ginseng" is a good thing to nourish for weak women and growing children. It's not as good as the rich, but it's also a way.
In order to improve the population quality of the workers' and peasants' families on his books, Lao Zhang not only gave subsidies, but also let them master the methods of enriching the dining table.
Today, the 500 acres of land where the eels are captured are served by the farmers in Gonggao, which is newly renovated and has poultry and livestock raised intensively. Most of the villagers are Huainan people, they come to escape from the mountains and rivers, and they are not familiar with the place, so they naturally dare not steal chickens and dogs like the locals, which is also the reason for employing people.
In order to catch the yellow eel, Zhang De had people dig irrigation ditches for the fields, and also set up water gates and pumps, so that when there is a shortage of water, water can be pumped directly from the river. Once the Yellow River floods, the water gate can still be drained to the outside after the gate is closed, which is very helpful for improving the living environment of the yellow eel.
Of course, by the way, it can also ensure the harvest of the farmland.
In addition to these, in order to make bamboo yellow eel cages, Zhang De planted a lot of bamboo in the farm. These bamboos can barely survive the winter, so there are many kinds of bamboo, and some are special varieties brought from Hedong, plus three kinds of bamboo in the south of the Yangtze River, and the five kinds of bamboo can ensure uninterrupted output every year because of the different forest growth speeds.
Bamboo has a wide range of uses, and after the construction of water conservancy in Cangzhou, ordinary people's bamboo rafts on the river can also travel to and from various counties. In addition, bamboo strips can be used to make daily necessities such as mats, bamboo collapses, bamboo charcoal, bamboo baskets, bamboo baskets, etc., which can be said to greatly reduce the cost of living.
The most important point is that because of the centralized breeding of poultry and livestock, a large number of chicken coops and pig houses are needed, and it is really a waste to make large wood, and bamboo is inexpensive and easy to process, which is the most suitable for Zhang De.
And according to Lao Zhang's own plan, this year's mulberry silkworm breeding in Hebei Province will be rolled out, and a large amount of bamboo will soon be used in the greenhouse for winter.
Because of the objective large demand in the aquaculture industry, there is no hope for farmers to enjoy the bamboo shoots this year and next year.
After showing the farmers how to capture yellow eels to enrich the table culture, Lao Zhang showed his latest equipment for capturing yellow eels.
This is a new product of Jizhou Shicheng Iron and Steel Plant, it is first of all, a steel wire......
Yellow eel fishing is very fun, but the tools for fishing yellow eel need to be constantly rubbed, after a series of failures, in order to find a qualified product from countless waste products, and then through a simple fitter process, processed into a yellow eel hook.
To make a steel wire in Zhenguan year, Zhang De first has to solve the longitudinal cutting of steel, of course, this is not too difficult. Then there is phosphorus, if you can, of course Lao Zhang wants to choose high-pressure water flushing, obviously this is not scientific, so Zhang De chose a soil method, he used bamboo willow branches to quickly spread on the hot steel, and then burst to remove the shell.
Of course, what is the effect, in fact, he can only see the clues from the finished product, how to control the quantity, which requires time to rub.
To solve these problems, it is a stretch, to stretch while the steel is hot and can still be stretched, from thick steel bars to thin steel bars.
In this process alone, Zhang De had to use high-quality tenons and winks. And the winch has to be as uniform as possible, so the current choice is human or animal power.
Finally, there may be a large number of waste products in the fine steel bar, some may be brittle, some may be wrought iron, and some may have a lot of holes......
After thousands of selections, a steel wire hook after the work of heat treatment pliers was born. Then string a suitable earthworm, use this yellow eel hook with a diameter of two or three millimeters, stuff it into the yellow eel hole to draw water, to grasp the essentials, the first time to fish for the yellow eel, the hook tip downward, so that the yellow eel out of the hole a mouth, can be hooked jaw.
If the tip of the hook is upward, the tip of the hook hooks the upper jaw, which is easy to get off the hook, and novices will often be hit by the confidence of the yellow eel because of the escape, and then lose the courage to catch the yellow eel.
Of course, for the old driver, the hook tip does not need to go down, squared, the moment the yellow eel opens its mouth to bite the hook, the hook is loosened in the mouth of the yellow eel, and then rotates ninety degrees, the whole process is completed in one go, quickly hooked the jaw of the yellow eel, and then a fresh yellow eel, hooked out like this.
"it, it's amazing!"
"It's thick and long, it's so big......"
"It's a lot bigger than it."
"It's a huge thing."
Zhang De looked down and smiled with satisfaction, this thick and big thing was still twisting his body, his head was unyielding, and he was full of fighting spirit.
It's another huge thing, Lao Zhang estimates that he also has a catty of five or six taels, such a huge thing is really rare.
In order to catch this big yellow eel, although thousands of labor, a large amount of scrap steel, a large amount of fuel consumption, and a large amount of waste water discharge, but seeing this thick yellow eel comparable to the staff of Auduz, Lao Zhang smiled very relieved.
It's all worth it. (To be continued.) )
