Exiled, the Medical Concubine emptied the warehouse and escaped from the famine
Chapter 60 Barbecue with Ice Noodles
Xie Ling continued, "If you want to do business with me, just put your fingerprint on this piece of paper and we'll make it a joint-stock company."
Xie Ling explained for a long time what shares meant.
Even though she knew that these four families were honest and decent, Xie Ling still had to explain the rules clearly to avoid any disputes later.
Everyone nodded hurriedly.
Of course I followed suit! How could I not do it?
Xie Ling nodded, "Okay, I'll show you the prices of the fragrant soaps that I asked Qiuyue to investigate in the market yesterday."
Xie Ling took out an account book and read: "There are not many shops selling scented pancakes in Jincheng. Low-quality scented pancakes are 500 coins each, medium-quality scented pancakes are 1 tael each, and high-quality scented pancakes are 2 taels of silver each. This was the previous price.
As for now, even the lowest-quality soap has risen to two taels of silver each, and they have all been snapped up. I plan to set the price in the middle, do you think it’s okay?”
Everyone nodded.
Whatever Xie Ling says goes!
After briefly talking about the business strategy, it’s time to start production.
Every household contributed a portion of their capital to purchase raw materials.
Shi Shaowen, Qiuyue and Wu Zhengqing went to the street to buy pig pancreas and alkali powder.
The group visited all the pig slaughtering shops in Jincheng and bought ten pig pancreases.
Under Xie Ling's guidance, everyone rolled up their sleeves and got to work.
There were not enough people, so more people came from each household.
To make fragrant pancreas, you must first crush the pig pancreas. This step is the most difficult and labor-intensive.
Under the big tree, the only sound that could be heard was the crackling of wooden sticks.
The men crushed pig pancreas and the women fried lye powder, and everything went on in an orderly manner.
Xie Ling took people to the mountains to pick peach blossoms, plum blossoms, and peach blossoms to make spices and dyes.
When she came back, Xie Ling saw Gu Wei from afar.
He sat beside the stone table and joined the queue, rolling up his sleeves to reveal a strong forearm with a focused expression.
Wu Daqiang was also pounding it, with such force that it looked like he was not pounding a pig's pancreas, but rather hitting the enemy's head.
When Wu Daqiang's wife saw this, she slapped him on the head and cursed, "If you break the stone table later, let's see what you can do!"
Wu Daqiang reduced his strength awkwardly.
"Everyone, you must be tired. We made some food. Don't hesitate to eat it."
Pei and Yu Niang each carried a basket and gave each person a piece of cake.
Qiuyue also learned how to make sour plum soup from Xie Ling. She made a big bucket full of it and placed it under a tree. Anyone who was thirsty could scoop some up for themselves.
As soon as Xie Ling, Gao Wanhua and a group of other young ladies walked over, Qiuyue brought over several bowls of sour plum soup.
Xie Ling felt hot after walking all the way, so she drank the whole drink in one gulp.
The sour soup is icy and refreshing, it’s so comfortable.
"Miss, how about this sour plum soup I made?"
Xie Ling gave a thumbs up, "It tastes good. How did you make it so cold?"
Qiuyue pointed to the well not far away and said, "I'll hang the wooden barrel down and put it in the well to keep it cool."
Xie Ling praised: "Smart."
Gao Wanhua brought over a dustpan, and the young ladies picked the petals from the basket and spread them out.
Pear blossoms are pear blossoms, peach blossoms are peach blossoms. Looking at them, they are colorful and very beautiful.
It is estimated that these petals will not be dried until tomorrow, so Xie Ling plans to take out the spices from the space to use.
There were spices in this dynasty, but they were ridiculously expensive. After some consideration, everyone decided to make them themselves.
The pig pancreas was also pounded. Xie Ling took a piece to demonstrate, "Add alkali powder to the pounded pig pancreas, knead it while adding, until it becomes this sticky paste. The inferior fragrant pancreas will be just like this, and for the better ones, we can add various spices and dyes."
As he spoke, he took out seven or eight molds from the house. They were the most common round molds with tiny patterns around them, which were very delicate.
Not to mention those lotus-shaped, moon-shaped, mountain- and river-shaped ones, with intricate and vivid patterns, so beautiful.
This is the mooncake mold that Xie Ling collected during the zero-yuan shopping event at the end of the world. She didn't expect it to come in handy today.
She gave one to every household.
After a while, the sun set and all the soaps were made.
One pig pancreas can make about ten pieces of fragrant pancreas, and the final product is about a hundred pieces.
Spread them all out in the yard, dry them in the shade overnight, and you can take them to the morning market to sell them tomorrow morning.
The round mold used to make the lowest-grade fragrant soap has no other dyes or fragrances added and is pure white.
Medium and high-quality scented soaps are made with beautiful molds with delicate and vivid patterns. When you smell them carefully, you can smell a faint fragrance that is dazzling.
Before being exiled, each family was a large family and had naturally used scented soaps before, but no one had ever seen one so beautiful and exquisite!
I feel more accomplished when I think that I made such a beautiful soap myself.
Ru Jieer pointed at a piece of fragrant soap and said proudly, "Sister-in-law, this is what my brother and I made!"
Xie Ling looked at the piece of soap. There was a little bit of it missing from the edge, but fortunately it was of the lowest quality, so it was not a big deal.
It was estimated that the top-notch ones, Pei Shi did not dare to let them play, and said with a smile: "Ru Ru is great, Li Ge'er is also great!"
Children should be praised!
Praise is more lovely and healthier!
Looking at the sky filled with rosy clouds, Xie Ling suggested, "How about we have a barbecue?"
Everyone knows that Xie Ling’s food is delicious. Even though they don’t know what barbecue is, they will nod their approval as they can eat for free in a legitimate way.
But he didn't take advantage of me, as he just brought all the ingredients from his own home.
Xie Ling instructed Gu Wei to go to the bamboo forest and cut a bamboo to make a stick.
Gu Wei received the order and turned around and left.
Xie Ling led everyone to prepare the ingredients.
Cut beef, pork and lamb into thin slices and marinate them first.
Wash various vegetables and set aside.
During this dynasty, various modern vegetables were not introduced, such as corn, potatoes, and sweet potatoes.
Xie Ling happened to have some seeds and planned to try planting them when she got to Lingnan.
She pretended to go into the house to get something, but actually took out ham, chicken wings, potatoes and other ingredients from the space.
As a foodie, Xie Ling stockpiled hundreds of billions of supplies before the end of the world and was not afraid of running out of them.
Seeing the novel ingredients in Xie Ling's arms, everyone's eyes lit up.
Xie Ling used her uncle who was far away in Beijing as a shield.
"My uncle is a businessman. I think he bought it while doing business in the Western Regions."
Everyone no longer had any doubts and secretly sighed that Xie Ling had a good family.
Gu Wei just happened to come back dragging some bamboo, and Xie Ling asked the men to help shave the bamboo into long, thin sticks.
While waiting for the skewers to be made, Xie Ling took the female family members to make some cool drinks.
There happened to be half a bag of ice jelly powder left from making ice jelly the day before, and Xie Ling planned to make ice jelly.
Stir the ice powder with hot water, and cut it into small square pieces after it solidifies.
Then pour a spoonful of brown sugar juice and add various small ingredients such as red beans, chopped sesame seeds, hawthorn slices, etc.
It looks crystal clear, with small materials of various colors piled up into small hills.
The reddish-brown sugar juice spreads between the gaps in the ice jelly, and it looks sweet and rich.
Wu Zhengqing brought up a bucket of iced water from the well and shouted, "Water is coming!"
Add a spoonful of chilled water and a bowl of ice jelly is ready.
Before the barbecue was ready, some people couldn't help but finish eating the ice jelly.
But there is still a lot of ice jelly, enough for you to eat.
The bamboo sticks over there have also been sharpened.
Gu Wei's knife skills are the best; the bamboo sticks are smooth and slender, without a single stray hair.
He handed it to Xie Ling like offering a treasure.
Every household started to string the ingredients according to what Xie Ling said.
The meat should be skewered with alternating pieces of fat and lean, and the vegetables should be skewered in uniform patterns.
The charcoal was burning red in the stoves.
Xie Ling put the iron rack on and started roasting.
Everyone sprinkled various seasonings and brushed on oil according to what Xie Ling said.
As the skewers were heated, smoke gradually emerged and soon the fragrance spread.
Everyone swallowed their saliva.
The skewers were grilled until shiny, golden brown on both sides, and generously coated with chili powder, looking very delicious.
After it's baked, everyone rushed to pick it up, not caring whether it's hot or hot, and put it in their mouths first.
The best food is the meat skewers.
The skin is slightly crispy, tender and juicy. After the fat bursts out, the rich aroma of oil immediately spreads in the mouth.
It’s spicy and fragrant, fresh and hot, and you can’t stop eating it.
The evening breeze is cool, the setting sun is all over the sky, and taking a bite of the sweet and delicious ice jelly is so refreshing.
A group of people were eating and chatting, and the atmosphere was very cheerful.
After eating, the women from each family rushed to clean up and did not let the Gu family help.
Xie Ling added ingredients to them, made ice jelly, and brought out seasonings. Although they also provided ingredients, it was not much different from eating for free.
Of course, you should work as much as you can. People have to learn to be grateful.
No one threw away the sticks. They were washed and put away for use next time.
After cleaning up the mess, Wu Jia Sanlang volunteered to keep watch at night and guard the soap to prevent it from being stolen.
Although they made the soap in the backyard, some people in the exile team saw it.
The Gao family also had a son.
The two men rolled up their bedding and decided that one would guard the first half of the night and the other the second half.
After everything was done and they washed up, Xie Ling and Gu Wei returned to their room.
Gu Wei fell asleep in a short while, and Xie Ling quietly turned over and got out of bed.
After Xie Ling left, Gu Wei suddenly opened his clear eyes.
He used a mantra to call out Shu Jian from the dark.
"Have you found out the identity of the man the lady is dating?"
Shujian nodded and told the story of Yu Yichou's life.
"Just a poor scholar living in Wutong Alley?"
Gu Wei touched his chin, looking doubtful.
Xie Ling has a quiet personality and doesn't like to show off. She would definitely not propose to be a goddess herself. It must have been the man who said that.
How can an ordinary scholar think so complicatedly?
Gu Wei didn't suspect that Xie Ling and Yu Yichou were having an affair. He was afraid that Yu Yichou was a complicated person and Xie Ling would be deceived.
He tapped the table with his slender knuckles and said calmly, "Use the spies and personnel of Listening Snow Tower to continue the investigation."
Xie Ling left the inn, changed into a curtain, and used his special powers to go straight to the prefectural gate.
