Crossing the Unknown Country

Chapter 198: The preserved eggs made by Su He are welcomed by Wang Xiaohu

Wang Xiaohu thought this was too easy. Many of his brothers were injured and disabled and lived in the border town. They lived in poverty and relied on their help. Although they were given a sum of money, most of them sent it back home because they didn't have a home. He was disabled and didn't want to go back and burden his family, so he could only endure in the border town. At least the general wouldn't watch them starve to death.

Wang Xiaohu smiled and asked, "I do know some people like this, but some of them are disabled. Do you mind? If you don't mind, I can find a few more for you, as long as you make sure they live a good life in the future."

Su He and the others understood that they were asked to take care of him until he was old, which was nothing. In this era, a teacher is a father for life. If he became their master, there would be no problem in supporting him. It would just be a matter of having one more mouth to feed. Besides, as long as he had the ability, they didn't mind these things.

They agreed with Wang Xiaohu to bring two people over next time, so that they can protect their family. As the money at home gradually increased, it would be good to have two martial arts experts at home.

Wang Xiaohu came here to catch up with the spring planting. He wandered around the village and saw composting in every household. He asked carefully and found out that this was also the method learned from the Su family. He went back to ask the Su family, and the girl of the Su family simply wrote him a recipe with all the steps clearly written down. Wang Xiaohu decided to take it back and let the villagers near the border town try it. He heard that it would help with grain production.

Also, this village produces lime, and we can buy it from here in the future. It is affordable and their army needs a lot of it. This is used for painting brick walls, and it is also very important for preventing diseases.

The houses in Suhe Village are all painted white, clean and tidy. The roads in the village are also paved with stone slabs in their spare time. This is because the village chief listened to the Su family's suggestion and each family took charge of a small section, divided it up and repaired it in their spare time. Now the roads in the village are well-known for being easy to walk on, and very convenient on rainy days.

The village chief has many opportunities to work. If a family does not obey, they will be disqualified and will not be given a good place to build a house. With this control, the villagers are very obedient. The Su family still sells eggs in their own shop, and the villagers can put them there to sell on their behalf. The villagers also save the cost of setting up a stall. The village chief also said that if anyone does not obey, they don’t have to go there to sell eggs. This can control many people. Now, if anyone does not have some eggs, they all want to make some pocket money from this.

Su He also taught his aunt how to cook tea eggs. It is said that the young students in the academy love it. Su He also experimented with Songhua eggs at home. Those who like this Songhua egg will never forget it, and those who don't like it can't taste it. Su He likes it. He adds some soy sauce and minced ginger, and it tastes so good.

This is not difficult. The ingredients are quicklime, wood ash, salt, and alkaline noodles. One pound of lime is three ounces of alkaline noodles, two and a half ounces of alkaline noodles in summer, and three ounces of alkaline noodles for other ingredients. However, the eggs cannot be cracked, and they cannot be fresh eggs. They must be left for seven or eight days before non-stick eggshells can be used. Add ash and water to make a paste, coat the eggs with a layer of paste, then coat the wood ash with dry powder, and place them in a cool and ventilated place. After seven or eight days, they can be eaten.

She succeeded the first time she made it, because she had learned it in modern times and made it by filming a video. She made dozens of them at first, and her parents said they were delicious, but her grandparents said they were just average. This is how some people like it, and some don't.

Su He did not take it to his uncle's shop. It is better not to sell new things at home. This is the usual style of Su He's family. They plan to take it to Fu Man Lou to try next time. There are more eggs in the village and there is no shortage of raw materials. Su He decided to make it and make it into preserved eggs for easy transportation.

It would be a bit of a waste to make salted eggs, the cost of salt is too high, and it doesn't taste very good. It's really not cost-effective to make this at this time.

Wang Xiaohu and his friends ate preserved eggs at the Su family's house. They really liked them. Eggs can be cooked like this. Wang Xiaohu told the Su family to take some away so that his family could have a taste. He was told to take more away next time because he liked them anyway.

Su He thought of a recipe, preserved egg and lean meat porridge and preserved egg, seaweed and tofu soup, which he could give to Fu Man Lou next time. Especially the preserved egg and lean meat porridge, this delicacy is irresistible to many people, and Su He likes it very much.
