The princess relies on the cat to ascend the throne

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince who had never experienced such "humiliation" raised his hind feet and left three bright red stripes on Le Ning's forearm, unintentionally fulfilling her childhood dream of becoming a Young Pioneer Captain.

Le Ning let it slip away without noticing for a while, looking at the red marks on his hands, there was a happy smile on his face.

Several senior brothers laughed and said that this raccoon slave is wild and told her to be more careful. Le Ning nodded, but there was a villain in his heart roaring happily:

ah--!Such a soft belly!

She didn't think about it at all, she just thought that the kitten hadn't given her trust to herself, and she planned to ask the master to advance some money in a few days to buy some small whitebait and make some small dried fish for it.

Another corner of the courtyard.

Lu Wanzhen felt as if the whole cat was about to be steamed, the heat shot up from the top of the head to the soles of the feet, accompanied by a tingling sensation that went deep into the soul, if it wasn't for the soft fur covering the face, it would be so hot at this moment I'm afraid that her flushed tender face has been exposed.

A bold and diabolical slave who is so frivolous and lonely. When he regains his human body, he will order someone to capture this little diabolical slave...

catch...

Lu Wanzhen got stuck, paced for a long time, decided to cool down his anger first, found Le Ning's room familiarly, went to his own small water basin, leaned over proudly and licked most of the basin, this Only then did the heat drop.

As for the strange numbness and sourness, she has retreated a lot now, and she is determined to ignore it.

It is absolutely impossible for her to admit that when she was touched by that or something, she felt a sense of pleasure rushing straight to the top of the sky, never!

……

Half a day later.

Zou Dequan agreed to a few disciples' "roasting meat" plan at the Qiqiao Lantern Festival, but meat is often used for cooking oil, because it is difficult to find a suitable way to produce oil from plants, and secondly, due to the limited technology level, the oil yield of plants is also low .

If this "roasted meat" is sold wantonly at Qiqiao and other meetings, the cost of meat oil and meat alone will be very high. If the problem of oil usage cannot be solved, two situations are likely to occur at the lantern festival: or use meat oil to roast meat. Meat, the price of a string of meat is as high as tens of pennies, so that no one dares to buy it;

Undoubtedly, neither of these two situations is in line with the original intentions of the brothers and sisters.

Le Ning was determined to use roasted meat to enrich the lives of the people of Dali, so he asked Zou Dequan carefully what new things there were in the courtyard. After all, corn and peppers had been discovered, what if peanuts were also brought over?

When Le Ning was studying in the past, he was lucky to read some "miscellaneous books" in the library. He happened to remember that when he was flipping through "Qi Min Yao Shu" for nothing, he saw this description of "extracting oil from ancient methods". Oily crops.

Sesame is the most suitable for the moment. With proper pressing technology, the oil yield can reach 45%. The other is peanut, and the oil yield may reach 50%.

Since soybeans are mostly used to extract oil in modern times, and soy products are also common in people's lives, and soybeans originated in China, she wondered why the ancients did not use soybeans to extract oil?

After searching for information, she discovered that there is an oily naan in soybeans, and the oil yield rate by pressing is very low, only about 10%. Soybeans are more suitable for "leaching" oil extraction. This method needs to be combined with special oil chemical reagents. This Dali level can be reached.

The system released the task about the ancient method of oil extraction in time, and Le Ning really found peanuts in Zou Dequan's courtyard, so for more than half a month, he tried the ancient method based on the contents of his memory in the oil workshop of an old friend of Zou Dequan. French oil.

The process is simple to say, but after crushing sesame and peanuts, steaming and frying, then wrapping them with straw, hooping an iron rod, and pressing them with a stone trough——

But in the end it took more than half a month to succeed.

On the day the oil came out, the steward of the oil workshop trembled when he heard the answer from the apprentice newspaper:

"How much, how much?"

He absolutely couldn't believe that Zou Dequan's apprentice, who was only nine years old, dared to use flax to extract oil, and he succeeded!

"Guard Liang, this stone of flax has already obtained 39 catties of oil."

"However, this thing called 'peanut' is even more amazing. One stone can get 43 catties of oil!"

When Guanshi Liang heard this, his hands were shaking, and he looked at Le Ning in shock.

This way...

If this method is bought by the oil factory, why worry about bad business in the future?

Some thoughts flashed through him, but they disappeared completely under the gaze of the young man's transparent eyes.

Le Ning bowed his hands to him as a greeting, and when the steward asked about it, he said that this method was taught by his master, and if it can be accomplished, it will be dedicated to the saint.

When Manager Liang heard this, he immediately calmed down——

That's right, Mr. Zou is immersed in this way of food every day, and it's normal to come up with such a method. How could he get dizzy and think it's from this child?

He shook his head, with a smile on his face, and said to Le Ning, the results will be reported to the workshop owner immediately, and he will visit him in a few days.

Le Ning also smiled at him, and then left from the oil workshop.

Standing in the sun outside the oil workshop, she would often exhale and start thinking about how to explain this method to Zou Dequan——

Ok……

It's better to say that it was taught by a fairy when I was a child.

Anyway, this is ancient times, and people are generally in awe of ghosts and gods, and this excuse is absolutely foolproof.

……

Sure enough, Zou Dequan didn't have the slightest doubt after hearing this, he even stroked her head and said with a smile:

"It's strange that when I first saw you, I felt a special affinity for you. It turns out that you have been inspired by a god, and you have become so intelligent. Zou has been caressed by the patriarch a lot, and you will definitely burn a stick of incense in the future!"

Le Ning also smiled along with him, but a big question mark popped up in his heart:

Who is the grandfather of the cook?

Yi Yin?Peng Zu?Easy tooth?Or Lord Stove?

She didn't know, and she didn't dare to ask.

When both master and apprentice were in a good mood, they didn't see a gray and white ball on the window sill secretly watching.

Lu Wanzhen stared deeply at Le Ning's back with a cat face - she hadn't seen that this kid had a fairy fate before.

Since this kid has seen an immortal, does that immortal know Zhennanzi?

Maybe it's possible to undo the fairy magic on him.

Lu Wanzhen was really fed up with being a cat. If she hadn't drank more water a few days ago, the discomfort in her stomach might have killed her.

Lu Wanzhen, who was going to continue to search for clues to the southwest, is now determined to stay by this kid's side and find a way to restore himself to his human body as soon as possible.

Le Ning had no idea that she had achieved the achievement of "owning a cat" unintentionally, and after discussing with Zou Dequan about dedicating the oil method and spicy peppers to the palace, she returned to the yard.

In the past few days, the brothers are worried that the method of "roasting meat" cannot be implemented, and are racking their brains for the second solution of "cold dishes".

As soon as Le Ning passed by, before he could tell the news, he was attracted by a dish on several cases——

Sliced ​​green cucumbers are lying on a plate, topped with chili rings and minced ginger and garlic. Isn’t this cucumber salad?

She felt kind for a moment, said hello to her seniors, stepped forward and took her pair of chopsticks, picked up a piece and wanted to put it in her mouth, the edge of the cucumber soaked in the dark sauce was dyed a dark color, The scent of vinegar penetrates into the nose first.

As soon as the cucumber entered her mouth, her eyes widened in surprise, the cold taste!It must have been the town of well water!

In the scorching summer, the heat from the journey from Youfang all the way to Zou's house just now melted a lot when the fragrant cucumber juice splashed in the mouth.

It can be said to be crunchy with a single bite. The seasoning of ginger, garlic and chili can't hide the coolness of the cucumber itself. With the seasoning of sour vinegar, once it enters the throat, the appetite will open up, even the original hot Spicy, when I met this iced cucumber, the spicy taste also brought a coolness, like a flame wrapped in ice.

The stomach that was bored by the heat made a "goo" sound for a long time, and Le Ning took several mouthfuls before stopping.

"Silang, you have been away for half a month, how is the oil extraction method?" Second senior brother Wang Hu is always impatient.

The other seniors also had anxiety on their faces, but Su Hanzhang spoke to reassure him: "The matter of oil extraction is very important, and it is natural for Shiro to have no eyebrows for a while. I am afraid it will be uncomfortable to stay in that oil workshop all day long. What do you want to eat?" , big brother will do it for you."

Le Ning smiled when he heard that, tilted his head and said, "Thank you, big brother, the oil extraction method is done."

When the third senior brother heard this, he immediately asked: "How much is the oil?"

Le Ning blinked, and under the expectant eyes of everyone, he slowly said: "The flax is nearly [-]%... As for the 'peanut', it is about [-]%."

She spoke lightly, and the words fell into the ears of several people, but she was not afraid of thunder!

The senior brothers were stunned for a while, and then began to cheer on the spot!

Le Ning laughed along with them, just seeing Lu Wanzhen who was passing by and looking at him, he pushed her down when she was still young, and raised his hand to rub her soft belly before she could react.

"Sesame! Long time no see, have you ever missed me?"

The sun shone brightly on the yard, and even the fence seemed to be dyed golden. The people who looked at it against the light looked exquisite, as if they were sweating with happiness, which made Lu Wanzhen, who had never seen such a happy scene, stunned. .

Maybe it was because this person was too close, for a moment, Lu Wanzhen felt that this kid looked like...

Very, very pleasing to the eye.
