I just want to build a city

Not long after the little priest of the Inari Headquarters left, Tottori entered the midsummer.And the batch of saltpeter brought back before the end of spring finally came in handy.

Qingshu himself naturally has no shortage of ice in the midsummer weather, because the ice cubes stored in the small ice cellar under the manor are enough for him to survive the hot summer.

However, Qingshu is not satisfied with this, he also wants to be able to have a snack and an ice cream in this season like in his previous life.Most of the ice stored in the ice cellar can only be used to keep fruits and vegetables cold, so that he has a little more appetite for lunch.Really want to add to the diet, to be honest, not very clean.After all, when storing ice cubes in winter, it is impossible for the water in each ice cube to be boiled well, right? Just cut the frozen water in the reservoir and drag it into the ice cellar.The water may have been left for several days, waiting for the frost to come, so it is not very clean and fresh.

Now with saltpeter, you can get a small basin of clean ice cubes by separating them with large and small wooden basins. The outer layer of ice that chemically reacts between saltpeter and water can also be placed indoors to cool down, which is very good.

Speaking of ice products, since Qingshu discovered that fish gelatin can be used to make jelly pudding, he handed fish gelatin to the cook. However, there is a problem. The handmade fish gelatin here in Japan is not sold well. The types of fish gelatin are far inferior to those of Tang and Song Dynasties. The isinglass produced today has a faint fishy smell that cannot be removed.

This fishy taste, which may not be obvious in the pork bone soup, adds a delicious taste to it, but once it is made into dessert, this taste is hard to see directly.

At the beginning, the cook made the steamed egg pudding according to Qingshu's method. Unexpectedly, it looked very good, but the taste...

You can't imagine what it's like to eat a faint fishy smell among sweets. Probably, it's a bit similar to the dark cuisine that is widely spread in modern times, looking up at the star pie.

In this way, Qingshu asked the cook to discuss with the family that made the isinglass, how to maintain the thickening properties of the isinglass and remove the fishy smell.

After spending such a long time, the cook and the family finally developed isinglass that has almost no fishy smell. Qingshu-kun doesn't know the reason. However, during lunch today, I ate such a cold , iced sweet pudding, is indeed a very good thing.

Sweet pudding, yes, only sweetness.The body in this life has never tasted the taste of pudding, so I feel that this is already very good.However, Qingshu-kun's consciousness knew that this pudding was missing something, what was missing, milk.

Milk is a problem that is both difficult and easy to solve.To say that the most common livestock in the Heian period was cows, so it was not difficult to get milk.But, the only few cows in the manor are all bulls, because bulls need to be stronger to drive carts.

Livestock, in this era, are not allowed to be sold privately, at least below the clan.Therefore, if you want to buy a cow, you must either go to a department that specializes in raising cattle, or you can only buy it from the clan.

Qingshu-kun thought about it, and let Nakata-kun handle this matter. After all, buying a cow is not too much. Even if Nakata-kun uses the wrong method, it is not impossible to fool him.Moreover, when Fujiwara Michicho was growing up, maybe he had one or two rumors that seemed arbitrary and weird, maybe it could reduce his sense of existence.

After Nakata-kun took the order to leave, Qingshu was not sitting in the porch reading a book with a cup of hot tea in his hands, but was in a room with an ice basin, looking at the buildings on the pixel map of Cairo.

The faint cold air, coupled with the cool plum blossom scented pills, made the whole body and mind feel much more comfortable.

Qingshu-kun's consciousness clicked on the map, and just clicked on the interface of the weapon shop. After looking at it like this, he stopped the movement of playing with the small stone in his hand.

what did he seeHas the third requirement of upgrading the weapon shop, forging a famous sword, been completed?

Sanjo Zongjin is really worthy of forging a national treasure, a famous swordsmith in history, he was already prepared, and he had to wait a year to get a famous sword.

Just when Qingshu-kun was wondering what kind of famous sword Yu Sanjo-kun had forged, a servant from outside came to report.The Santiao family came to the manor with a sword to see if he was allowed to enter with a sword.

When meeting Qingshu-kun, naturally you can't bring swords and other utensils inside. However, Qingshu-kun thought of the information he just saw on the weapon shop interface, and immediately understood that the knife brought by Sanjo Zongjin was probably the one It must be a famous forged sword. If so, why is it missing?

"Let him come in with a knife." Qingshu turned her head and said to Xing.

Xing nodded in response, expressing his understanding, and walked out on his knees. He told the attendant who came to inform him to let the waiter of the Santiao family come in. By the way, he asked him to bring a few attendants to obey orders in the courtyard.

Qingshu-kun is at ease with Sanjo and the others, but Xing is not very at ease.Although Sanjo-kun is not a samurai, he is also a very strong swordsmith. If something happens, she will stand in front of Qingshu-kun. The time is enough for the outside attendants to hear the movement and rush over.

This time, only one member of Santiao Zongjin came from the Santiao family. He placed the sword mentioned by the attendant on a long wooden tray and held it up.He didn't hand over the tray to the following attendants, he didn't hand over the wooden tray to Xing who came to greet him until he entered the room.

"My lord." Santiao Zongjin bowed next.

Qingshu pointed to the lower head, where Xing had just placed the table and futon, and said: "There is no need to be bound by so many etiquettes, Sanjo-kun, please sit down."

Of course, Sanjo-kun would not really listen to Qingshu-kun. For a staid old man like him, Qingshu-kun's trust is one thing, but etiquette is another.Therefore, when Mr. Qingshu gave him to sit down, he still bowed to express his gratitude.

"Why did Sanjo-kun come here suddenly today, and he brought a sword with him." The folding fan in Qingshu's hand pointed to the tray in Xing's hand.On the tray, Haruki-kun confirmed that he had never seen this sword in the museum.

However, not most of the famous swords have been passed down to modern times safely, and many of them were lost on the battlefield, or were taken as generals and lords, and then were cut off by the local government to shock the army.Although Sanjo Zongjin forged famous knives, the only one he knew and had seen was Mikazuki Zongjin, but it can't be said that Sanjo Zongjin didn't forge other famous knives, right?

"The lord gave me enough iron ore to forge a good sword to equip the patrol soldiers without restraint. However, the sword forged two days ago is an elaborate work I made during this period. I know from General Fujido that the lord is already learning swordsmanship, so before you have a formal saber, I hope this sword can assist you."

Sanjo Zong looked at the sword on the tray in Xing's hand with pride in his eyes. "This knife, I named it Butterfly Ball."

"Choimaru? What a beautiful name." Qingshu said.

When Qingshu put down the fan in his hand and looked at the sword named "Choi Wan", Xing very clearly sent the tray to the table in front of Qingshu, asking him to take a good look, this sword Before owning an official saber, it must be the sword he used.

The butterfly pill was made by Sanjo Zongjin two days ago, and a suitable scabbard was created for it in these two days.Chomaru is a straight sword that is customary now. Judging by the length, it belongs to the sword of the tachi sword.

Qingshu slowly pulled out the blade of Chomaru, and the cold light reflected by the sword was projected on Qingshu's eyes, causing him to squint slightly uncomfortably.This was the first time he had come into contact with such a cold weapon as a sword at such close range.In the past, it was either held in the hands of the guarding warriors or placed there far away.Those who came to meet him were not allowed to enter with weapons, let alone take a look at their swords.

However, before this, Haruki-kun, a casual gamer, really had no interest in swords.

When I was in school, I followed the school team and went to the museum to meet Mikazuki Zongjin. To be honest, there was a thick glass cover on Mikazuki Zongjin across the red isolation zone. big touch.Until now, touching the cold blade of "Choi Wan" and looking at the blade patterns it shows under the cold light reflected in the sun, the blade patterns are staggered, like the patterns of butterfly wings and feather wings, it is no wonder that Sanjo Zongjin will be so happy It is named "Diewan".

"The sword really has a wonderful charm." Qingshu-kun slowly retracted Chomaru into the scabbard. The sword with the pattern of a butterfly wing also restrained its sharpness as he moved, and the cold light was caught convergence.

Hearing Qingshu-kun say this, Sanjo Zongjin's face that had always been stern showed a smile for the first time. Obviously, he agreed with Qingshu's words very much.

"Yes, the sword, whether it is forged without a fixed shape or after it is formed, is extremely attractive. I am very glad that the lord can understand the beauty of the sword I forged. Butterfly Maru should also be very happy."

In Sanjo Muneki's heart, each of his swords, whether named or unnamed, is his child, a unique existence.Regardless of the knife he forged, he hasn't seen it again for several years, as long as he gets started, he can tell when the knife was made, and it is a very serious craftsman.

"I should thank Sanjo-kun for sending me Chomaru. I will cherish this sword."

In fact, Qingshu-kun felt a little sorry for the good sword in his hand, because a famous sword like Choe Maru was destined to be of little use in the hands of this nerd.There is a wooden sword for practicing, and a samurai for going out, unless one day he meets someone who is lurking and wants to kill him, maybe Choi Wan can be used.

Thinking of this possibility, Qingshu couldn't help laughing, and it's better not to have a crow's mouth.
