Wear to the Ming Dynasty to farm

Huang Yuntian slowly approached Qiao Jiwei.Qiao Jiwei himself took the lead, "What do you want to stay in Luoyang forever?"

Huang Yuntian smiled coolly when he heard the words, "My lord is already in the capital, he sent me here to tell you to prepare well, and send someone to welcome you to the capital in two days."

"Prince?" Qiao Jiwei's face was full of confusion, he thought Huang Yuntian's crazy words were really bizarre, "You said Dayong is the prince?"

"Well," Huang Yuntian nodded, "to be precise, it is King Wu. The old King Wu died half a month ago, and the emperor just appointed him."

Qiao Jiwei was astonished, "How is this possible? Dayong was born in this village, why is he now a royal relative?" The expression on Qiao Jiwei's face became serious when he said this, "You don't think you will cooperate with that old master Zhu to plot Us? If so, then we will accompany you to the end."

"What I said is absolutely true, and there is no falsehood. That old master Zhu is the old King Wu, and he is a brother of the same mother as the late emperor. The emperor has relied on him for assistance these years."

"Ah!" Qiao Jiwei thought to himself that Huang Yuntian and the others really had no motive to plot against the Qian family, his explanation was really reasonable.More than [-] years later, the royal family found their son who was left behind among the people. What a legendary and bloody plot.Originally, Qiao Jiwei could only watch this kind of story in the drama, but he didn't expect this to happen to him.At this moment, Qiao Jiwei was overwhelmed with panic.

But there is still a problem that Qiao Jiwei doesn't understand, "Then who are you?"

Huang Yuntian answered honestly, "Jin Yiwei."

Hearing these three words, Qiao Jiwei was not as surprised as Huang Yuntian imagined, but just nodded.According to Huang Yuntian's recent performance, either the imperial court committed crimes, or he was directly under the emperor's rule.Judging by Huang Yuntian's physique and appearance, he must not be a eunuch.

"Okay, you go home and prepare. When you get there, you can enjoy the riches and honors. Why do you make fish tofu?" After finishing speaking, he walked to Yuan Qi's house.

Qiao Jiwei couldn't believe what Huang Yuntian said.

He hurried home and saw that Qian's mother was running like a rabbit, only dissatisfied in her heart. "Why did you come back again? Did you miss something?"

Qiao Jiwei rushed in front of Qian's mother, panting, and after his breath calmed down, Fang asked: "Ma'am, tell me the truth, was Dayong born and raised by you?"

Hearing Qiao Jiwei's question, Qian's mother felt as if a secret had been poked into her heart. She hurriedly turned away from Qiao Jiwei's gaze, "How did you know this? Was it told to you by some talkative bitch in Murakami?"

"Huang Yuntian told me that he said Brother Dayong is a relative of the emperor."

"Huang Qin? I just remember that I picked him up outside the village more than 20 years ago, and he was still wrapped in a bright yellow cloth. What do you mean by Huang Qin? Could it be that his surname is also Huang, the brother of Yuan Qi's man? ?”

Qiao Jiwei moved his head closer, "He is the cousin of the current Holy Majesty."

Mother Qian was so frightened that she fell off the chair she was sitting on and didn't recover from it all day.When Fei Cui heard the news, she was also shocked.

After returning to normal, Mother Qian took out the bright yellow cloth and showed it to Qiao Jiwei. Although it has been more than 20 years, the surface is still shining.This kind of quality and handwork is by no means owned by ordinary people, and Qian Dayong's life experience is really not simple.

Qiao Jiwei looked at the bright yellow cloth again and again, thinking that what Huang Yuntian said was true.Such a sudden incident made Qiao Jiwei really uncomfortable.After being taken to the capital, Qiao Jiwei's mission to travel here must be adjusted.That being the case, it can only wait and see.

Weighing this matter every day, Qiao Jiwei forgot about the red pepper brought by the caravan.

He went into the storage room and looked at the peppers in the sack, and found that these dried red peppers were much smaller than they were in modern times, only two or three centimeters long.And the surface is quite wrinkled.Qiao Jiwei picked up one and took a sip, and the spicy taste permeated his tongue instantly. Qiao Jiwei ran out to find water in a hurry, took a sip of water from the tank, but it felt even hotter on his tongue.

Qiao Jiwei ran all over the yard, Fei Cui went out and saw Qiao Jiwei's embarrassment, and didn't know what was going on, "Master, what's wrong with you?"

"hot."

Fei Cui thought he ate peppercorns, so she said, "Go inside and have a drink of soy sauce."

Upon hearing this, Qiao Jiwei hurried into the main room, poured a little soy sauce into his mouth from a bowl, and the spicy taste in his mouth finally stopped.

Compared with modern chili, the chili at this time is really hot.I heard Mr. Huo say that southerners only regard chili as an ornamental plant and have never eaten it.Since chili has not yet become a vegetable trend, it can be used to open up a blank market.

It's just that Qiao Jiwei can't stand the spicy taste, let alone the people here.We have to find a way to remove most of the spicy taste of chili, so that people at this time can accept this kind of food from the bottom of their hearts. In the end, people's resistance to spicy food is getting higher and higher, and chili peppers will naturally become popular in the end.In this process, Qiao Jiwei can also get some benefits.

To make northerners accept the taste of chili, it is definitely not acceptable to directly fry red chili. This may make people feel shadowed, and they will never eat this chili again in this life.

If these peppers are used as chili sauce, and some pork is added to it, the spicy taste will be largely removed during the production process, and the aroma will become stronger, which may open up the market for chili peppers.

After thinking about the idea, Qiao Jiwei immediately started to do it.He stewed chili peppers in the yard all day long, added some seasonings such as peanuts and salt when the frying was halfway done, and cut several catties of pork for experiments. Mother Qian was choked and complained constantly: "All day long. What kind of moths are you doing in this yard?"

The neighbors around could also smell the spicy smell. They had never smelled such a choking smell since they were born, and they all gathered in the yard of the Qian family to see what happened.

Wang Wu tried to get closer to the pot, and when he reached the pot, he quickly backed away, sneezing again and again, "Ji Wei, why is this thing more pungent than peppercorns, it smells so damn good."

Qiao Jiwei smiled, "If you eat it raw, I'm afraid you will suffer even more. In that case, let's call this thing chili." The previous common sense is used directly.

Because the origin of chili is in the Americas, it seems that in ancient times, there was no such thing as spicy, and most people's diets were light.And Qiao Jiwei is about to develop the blank market of chili food, and adding the spicy taste to famous Chinese food is also a merit.

After two days of exploration, Qiao Jiwei finally formulated the best ratio for making hot sauce.Even this little hot sauce was not enough to sell, so Qiao Jiwei kept half of it for himself.The other half was distributed to several families with good relations in the village.

This hot sauce looks oily, and several ingredients are mixed together, but it is hard to tell what the ingredients are.They still have lingering fears about the taste of the chili stir-frying, so they dare not try it.Some boldly picked up the chopsticks and took a sip. After tasting it once, they realized the wonderful taste and couldn't put the chopsticks down again.

But in Qian's house, the two female family members did not dare to try the hot sauce. Seeing Qiao Jiwei eating with gusto, they all looked at him strangely.

Qiao Jiwei sensed that something was wrong, looked up at the two of them, pursed his lips and smiled, and pointed at the hot sauce on the table with his chopsticks, "Eat it together too, this hot sauce has been fried so many times, there is not much spicy left. "

Fei Cui picked up the chopsticks, put a little bit of chili sauce into her mouth, and quickly took a mouthful of steamed buns. The aroma immediately filled her lips and teeth, and the spiciness was within acceptable limits.Fei Cui nodded frequently, "Well, it's quite fragrant. Young master, you are really amazing."

Qian's mother resisted this hot sauce in her heart, after all, she had never seen chili for decades, and she didn't know if it was poisonous.But seeing the master and servant taking a bite of chili sauce, they also thought about it and put their chopsticks into the bowl of chili sauce.

Qiao Jiwei originally planned to recruit people to make hot sauce immediately after eating, but he couldn't do it after careful consideration.At this time, when it was time to plan potatoes, I had to dye the sackcloth that shopkeeper Guo sent someone to bring from the county, and if I wanted to make hot sauce, I would be at my wits end.

Qiao Jiwei was worrying, but he didn't expect Zhao Ji, the poor landlord, to find him.Qiao Jiwei saw him coming and quickly let him into the yard.

Zhao Ji didn't hesitate, and asked, "Can I sell you another few dozen acres of my land?"

After speaking, he didn't dare to meet Qiao Jiwei's eyes, and lowered his head.Thinking about it, Zhao Ji gambled all his money again at this time.

Qiao Jiwei remembered that he seemed to be in charge of collecting iron at Blacksmith Zhu's side in the county, so he asked, "Aren't you at Blacksmith Zhu's side?"

"Almost all the wells in the county town have been drilled, and those who drilled wells have gone to other places, so there are fewer iron pumps made by Blacksmith Zhu now."

Seeing Zhao Ji's frown here, Qiao Jiweneri suddenly came up with an idea. "You don't have to sell the land, just help me with some work here, and I will pay you some money, how about it?"

Zhao Ji hesitated, "What work? I don't like dirty words that are too tiring."

Qiao Jiwei's face immediately darkened, "If you don't want to do it, then go. You think about money falling from the sky all day long, so why don't you go begging?"

Zhao Ji blushed a little from the training, and quickly said: "Okay, I will do it, I will do it."

This morning, Qiao Jiwei passed on the recipe of Zhao Ji's hot sauce, and first demonstrated the action of stir-frying peppers in the pot several times.Let Zhao Ji follow suit.

But Zhao Ji alone couldn't do anything, so Qiao Jiwei recruited more than a dozen people from other villages to help Zhao Ji.

Thinking that the pigs raised in his pigpen were already quite strong, Qiao Jiwei asked Xiang'er's family to operate on the four pigs first.

The first time Qiao Jiwei killed a pig, Brother Xiang'er killed the pig like a tiger, first put the pig into a basin, and then removed the pig's bones.

Qiao Jiwei saw that Brother Xianger was covered in blood, so he hurriedly asked Brother Xianger to wash with hot water.The Qian family didn't need these pigs, and the marriage of the daughter of Xiang'er's family did not improve her living conditions, and she was less oily, so Qiao Jiwei gave all the pig intestines, liver and other things to Brother Xiang'er, and even took a good piece of the pig. The meat was also cut off.

Brother Xiang'er hastily declined: "How embarrassing, your family managed to raise a pig."

Qiao Jiwei pushed the basin into Brother Xiang'er's hand: "Just accept it, I'll be annoyed if you don't listen."

Brother Xiang'er had no choice but to accept it.
