Aunt Geng was praised so much that her eyes were bright and she was so arrogant. She and Gu Nanxi sat in the kitchen and demonstrated it on the spot.
Everything was done down to the smallest detail, including how much water to put in and how much heat to use, without any secrets.
The preparation of this canned fruit is actually very simple.
Just wash the clay pot, put the fruits and water in it, steam it with water, and cover it with the lid after steaming.
The most critical step is that the clay pot must be clean!
In later generations, many families would also can can yellow peaches like this, but they all used glass jars, which have a particularly good sealing effect.
There is no such condition now, so we can only strengthen the closure from other aspects.
Gu Nanxi inspected it and felt that this thing could work, so she immediately handed over the preparation of the cannery to Su Yunyan and Aunt Geng!
Su Yunyan received A Niang’s mission and took action immediately.
After all, Fuming Town is a military fortress and there is no suitable place to set up a factory, so Su Yunyan set up the cannery in Rouxuan Town.
Then she approached Wen Yu and wanted to publish an advertisement for purchasing fruits in the fourth issue of "Yunzhou Weekly"!
This is the first time "Yunzhou Weekly" has received an advertisement, which opened the door to a new world for Wen Yu.
The price of "Yunzhou Weekly" is very cheap, only one penny. But in this case, we can only barely maintain a balance of payments.
Wen Yu was worried that relying on funding from the governor's office was not a long-term solution. Su Yunyan's arrival made her realize that "Yunzhou Weekly" could use an extra page for advertising!
For a time, the entire Yunzhou started to move again!
Outside Fuming Town, at the market, next to the purchasing stall where wool was originally purchased, another purchasing point was opened.
"Collecting fruits? There are small red fruits on the grassland, do you collect them too?" The speaker held a handful of small fruits in his hand. They were red and tasted sweet and sour, with a hint of astringency. taste.
“Grunge cherry? Where did you find it?” The person at the purchasing point recognized what this fruit was at a glance.
Tooth cherries are generally distributed in mountains, hills and grasslands. Children on the grassland don't have much sweets, so they like to find this kind of cherry to sweeten their mouths.
“There is a hairy cherry tree in the area where our tribe grazes, and I picked it casually.” The speaker generously handed a handful of hairy cherries to the person in charge of the purchasing point.
The market in Fuming Town has been open for more than a year, and its reputation is very good among the tribes in the grassland.
Here, as long as you abide by the rules of Fuming Town, you will not be forced to buy or sell, nor will you encounter price reduction or customer rip-off.
The reputation of the market spreads further and further, and many grassland tribes far away from Yunzhou want to come here to do transactions.
The grassland people who have come to the market several times have become familiar with the people at the purchasing point, and they can occasionally chat with each other.
"Collect it!"
"You want to collect this too? There are so many of them on the grassland, what do you collect them for?" It was just a casual question at first, but I didn't expect that Yunzhou actually harvested plum cherries!
“We want to set up a canning factory in Yunzhou. Now we want not only the hairy cherries, but also the grapes from Huaishuo Town and the sea buckthorn fruits from the mountains!”
“Are we going to set up a factory again? !”
When the people around heard this, they were filled with envy.
“It’s better for you in Yunzhou. You live in a comfortable and warm house with a warm fire, and you don’t have to worry about life!”
"Your general is so kind to you! He is trying his best to make you money!"
"Oh, your life is much better now than it was a few years ago!"
This The words sound a bit sour, and the acquisition points are negative. The person in charge said with a smile: "Aren't you having a better time? I heard that last winter, your tribe gave birth to several babies. From now on, they will all be warriors of your tribe!" The winter in the grassland is very difficult, but it doesn't freeze in the tribe. Dead people, it would be good if they don’t starve to death.
It is a great joy to be able to give birth to a few babies in winter, which proves that this tribe has abundant materials and a prosperous life.
Thinking of the warm winter they had this year, the originally sour prairie man grinned: "Yes! The leader has already said that this year we will keep all our wool and sell it to the general! In addition to wooly cherries, other fruits, right? Want it too?”
"What do you have there?"
"Thick plums. Black ones, don't worry, I'll pick the ones that have been frosted for you. That way they won't be astringent and will be particularly sweet."
"Okay!"
……
"Grandma! Look, I picked a lot of fruits today!" A seven or eight-year-old boy carried a dusty linen bag, got into the tent, and happily showed his grandma today's harvest.
While boiling the goat's milk, the woman took a look and praised: "Our Gerang is really amazing! Tomorrow, you can take these fruits to the market and sell them!"
Gerlang carefully put the fruit into the basket, which was already half full of small red fruits.
Their tribe found a fertile pasture not far from Yunzhou.
The leader said that he would spend this winter here and not change anywhere else.
This is Geerang's first time coming to Yunzhou. Last year, his father brought his team to trade here. He said that Yunzhou is a very good place and the market is so big that you can't even see the end of it. .
Although the general of Yunzhou is the Jade-faced King of Hell, she never embarrasses the people on the grassland. When the people of Yunzhou mention her, they always give her a thumbs up and praise her.
Many small tribes are willing to station near Yunzhou.
Compared to the greedy Khan tribe, they believe in the Jade Faced King of Hell more.
Because it was safe, the family gave Geerang the job of herding the sheep.
When Geerlang was grazing, he would pick small fruits and put them in the linen bag he carried with him.
Only in this way, the small fruits will not be easily crushed. If they are put into a bamboo basket, they will be easily crushed, which will affect the purchase price.
"Mom, the younger brother of the Lu family said that he is going to school." Gelang was counting his fruits and chatting.
The younger brother of the Lu family was a Han friend he knew. He said that he originally had three brothers and one sister, but none of them were raised. Three died of starvation in the winter and one died of illness. .
When Grand went to the market to trade, the Lu family's brother was helping his father pick yellow mud.
"Go to school? Is their family rich?" The woman was surprised. Even she knew that going to school in Dazhou cost a lot of money.
Gerlang's tone was full of envy: "It doesn't cost anything. The Lu family's brother said that he went to an elementary school run by the governor's office and it didn't cost anything. If he does well in the exam, he will be rewarded. Money! He said that he must be the first in his grade, take the imperial examination, and work for the general!"
The woman paused for a long time before saying softly: " Yunzhou is really a good place.”
Gel Lang was also envious: “Yes. The Lu family brother said that the general himself can’t afford a few new clothes a year. , but it’s so nice to the people! Auntie, how wonderful it would be if we were also from Yunzhou. I also want to go to school.” (End of Chapter)
