Chapter 10 Biogas Pool Is Just a By-Product

Li Yi said at this time that he was addicted and finally had an audience.

So he continued.

"Plantago, also known as plantain, quietly pops up when everything comes to life in spring."

"It looks like a wheel, and it appears in front of the wheel. When its buds show their tips, the wheel always crushes them mercilessly."

"But this does not make it lose its life. It is still growing tenaciously, and the greenery has not weakened by half."

"At the same time, it is a delicacy. Just pick it gently and you will see that the yellow and green parts are so attractive."

"Boil a pot of boiling water, throw the crispy and tender plantains into it and tumble, only for a moment, then scoop it up."

"Dip a little hot sauce and put it gently in your mouth. People will feel the breath of life and unique feelings from ancient times..."

When Li Yi said this, everyone involuntarily stretched out their chopsticks to pick up the plantains next to them.

Then I stuffed the dipping sauce into my mouth and felt that my soul was really lifted.

Li Yi didn't eat. He ate meat quickly. He was still young and growing up. What is there to eat about wormwood?

"Brother Yi!" Li Longji ate two chopsticks of coriander, reacted, and clasped his fists.

At this moment, he expressed his conviction. How could a wild vegetable, a wild vegetable that could be found everywhere, be different when it came out of Li Yi's mouth?

Li Chengqi followed and looked at Li Yi in surprise. It feels so evil.

"Brother, third brother, eat fried meat with green onions. There is fat in the meat. It won't taste good when it's cold."

Li Yi thought nothing had happened and persuaded his two brothers.

Everyone tasted and ate slowly, and it was dark after eating.

Normal people obviously can't go back to the city.

Li Longji and Li Chengqi also stayed at Zhuangzi that night as if they could not go back.

Li Yi knew the purpose of the two cheap brothers at a glance.

So he mixed the mutton tendons and stewed the mutton tail in the pot, waiting to be heated.

Then he took out the wine, which cost more than a thousand cents per catty, and bought five catties in total.

The wine, to be honest, is not very good.

This is the most expensive wine. What you drink is not the taste, but the brand.

It is a 'strong' wine that has been cellared for a long time and has an alcohol content between 20 and 25 degrees.

The price is fixed, one thousand coins per catty.

He also made mutton skewers and dried tofu rolled with shredded green onions and coriander, ready to be grilled.

This dried tofu, also known as Qianzhang, is not available yet.

No one thought to put the soy milk used to make tofu on the cloth layer by layer, and then uncover the dried tofu.

But he made it easily, and he had plenty of silk.

Sure enough, it was seven o'clock in the evening, and everyone else... didn't have any rest.

Yes, everyone in Zhuangzi is full of energy.

There are biogas lamps.

Those who do manual work, those who write for adults, and those who read, all are reluctant to sleep.

Including the four new people in the palace, they don't want to sleep when they light up the biogas lamps.

Li Longji and Li Chengqi, who had rested for a while, also lit biogas lamps in their rooms.

Just looking at it, my eyes were filled with stars.

"Sure enough, it's brighter than a candle." Li Longji commented.

"It's bright, there's no need to cut the core." Li Chengqi followed.

The candle has a wick, but other parts of it are burned out. The wick is too long and wastes wax, so it needs to be cut.

If you use an oil lamp, you have to remove the wick.

I don't need this one now. I think it's too bright. Turn the valve on the copper pipe. Less air will come out and it will naturally become darker.

Candles cannot be adjusted so easily. If they are not adjusted well, they will burn out.

After looking at the biogas lamp for a while, Li Longji and the two came out again and went to the house where the students were.

The boards were blocked, but there were gaps.

The room is bright and you can't see outside, but it's easy to see inside from the outside.

Two people looked at it. The small room was not big, and the students were flipping through books there.

From time to time, I write down my thoughts on the paper next to me.

Seeing this, Li Longji was in a good mood. Today, the Tang Dynasty is hungry for talents.

But after reading a few places, he felt bad again.

Because the room is too bright, why are biogas lamps so useful?

The same size room can't get enough light even if four candles are lit.

So Li Longji got angry and knocked on a student's door.

The student who had the door knocked on was also very angry. What were he doing? I'm reading a book and you disturb me.

But considering that he was a powerful friend of the proprietor, the student forced a smile and said, "You two brothers haven't slept together, either?"

"I ask you, why don't you turn down the lights and consume so much biogas? What will happen if the biogas runs out?" Li Longji asked directly.

The student was stunned for a moment, then laughed and said: "My dear proprietor, I don't allow it. He said that dim light will cause eye diseases and make it difficult to see things from a distance. Therefore, the lamp should be put aside to refract the light and make it bright, which is conducive to learning."

Li Longji listened and took a look. Sure enough, the biogas lamp was not facing the students, but placed beside it.

Then the room lights up, and the students find an angle that does not block the shadows to read and write.

"Is that so?" Li Chengqi felt that he couldn't see things in the distance very clearly now.

But why was it still clear last night? Is it blurry now?

Li Longji felt the same and wondered.

Both of them had forgotten that they had been staring at the lamp and their eyes were filled with stars.

Anyone who sees it that way is confused now.

"Eldest brother and third brother, I'm looking for you two. How about we three brothers having a drink tonight? I've prepared food."

Li Yi's voice suddenly sounded at the door of the house.

It's not who he is staring at, but the people in Zhuangzi who have agreed among themselves to take turns to keep watch.

When he saw two people running around, he went to talk to Li Yi.

Li Yi was afraid that his two brothers would affect his students' studies, so he went here.

Li Longji and Li Longji suddenly blushed, as if they had been caught doing something bad.

"My dear proprietor," the student greeted.

Li Yi walked over and looked at the paper on the table. The paper was written on both sides.

This kind of paper can be written on both sides, and the transparency is amazing.

He looked at the ink ingots placed on the inkstone and said, "Write Brother Xuanyan's pen."

"Yes, proprietor." There was a sudden voice outside.

"Cuckoo, Cuckoo" came another bird's voice.

Not long after, someone from the village brought ink and paper to the student, then turned and left.

"Brother Xuanyan is very talented in writing. After I write the poems in ink, I will definitely send them to my brother."

Li Yi said to the students and led Li Longji out.

The three of them were speechless along the way, waiting to return to Li Yi's courtyard.

Li Longji asked: "That person has no money for paper or ink? I think his article is acceptable."

"Yes, the article is good, so I spread the ink on his paper and polished the pen." Li Yidao.

Li Yi emphasized the word "even", indicating that this was not charity.

Li Longji raised his hand and touched Li Yi's head, and sighed: "There are so many people in the world like Yi's brother Hui, so how can he spread his sad writings across all the states?"

Li Yi didn't want to talk about these things, and he couldn't change them now.

He lit the biogas lamp in the room, added charcoal to the grill, and set up an extra small stove next to it to light the charcoal.

Boil the braised lamb tail, serve it out, and scald it with wine.

"Brother, third brother, do you want to know about biogas lamps?" Li Yi asked while grilling meat and bean rolls.

"Brother Yi, is this thing worth it?" Li Chengqi did not deny it, but asked if ordinary people would gain more or lose more if they followed the instructions.

"It's not worth it in the city. There is no land to build biogas digesters in every village in the city. It's not worth it for ordinary people outside the city."

"The first one is that there is a lot of excrement in the biogas tank; the second one is that there is space; the third one is that it consumes a lot of firewood every day."

"Building a biogas digester costs a lot of money. It cannot use its full potential. The builder is wasting his family's resources."

"Only families and large villages can use it, especially those with many livestock."

"I built a multi-functional kiln just for firing bricks, ceramics and cement."

"The biogas digester depends on whether the cement label is up to standard, and we can also try to see if the biogas fertilizer works well."

Li Yi explained the advantages and disadvantages of biogas digesters, and told his two brothers that biogas digesters are a by-product.

The cement that can be used in biogas digesters can be used in other areas with better results, such as building roads and river embankments.

Li Chengqi reached out and touched Li Yi's head: "Brother Yi is a great talent."

Li Longji stretched out his hand, but Li Yi dodged it. It's okay for the beauty to touch her head, but what if you two touch her like this and it makes you stupid?

Li Longji retracted his hand in embarrassment and tasted a bean roll and found it delicious.

Then he asked: "Brother Yi, what is this? Can it be promoted?"

Li Yi shook his head: "It's useless. Whether or not it has it doesn't have much impact on life. Many people can't afford it."

"Can I pay tribute?" Li Longji asked for another one.

"The emperor eats this? There should be a lot of delicacies in the palace, right? Oh, the food in the palace must be tasted by others first. For example, the Food Bureau of the Ministry of the Palace, which is prohibited when entering the imperial palace, tastes it first."

Li Yi revamped the New Book of Tang Dynasty yesterday, and his words became more literate.

It made my head confused, but I understood a lot of things.

"Can I pay tribute?" Li Longji didn't care about this province, that province, this bureau or that bureau, he only cared about whether he could eat it in the palace.

"Then I have to find someone to make it. It's quite laborious. It's not like tofu. It needs to be poured layer by layer and then peeled off layer by layer."

Li Yi doesn't want to do it. Dried tofu cannot increase his life span.

The key is that it's labor-intensive. If you don't peel it off properly, a piece of dried tofu will be ruined, and you can only make it into pieces, such as vegetarian chicken.

"How about Brother Yi cooks something every day and gives it to our brothers to eat?" Li Longji still didn't give up.

"Let me teach you how to do it." Li Yi was even more straightforward. This thing is not difficult and you can understand it at a glance.

"I'll learn it, brother Yi, I'll learn it, and we'll share the profit from the sale 50-50." Li Chengqi agreed.

The third brother is the emperor. If the emperor wants to eat, he can do it.

Li Longji nodded: "Yes, leave it to the elder brother."

"Okay, it doesn't matter whether you pay or not. Big brother will send someone here tomorrow and I will teach you how to make it and how to make some dried tofu dishes."

Li Yi has no pursuit in this area and can't make much money, so it's not as good as soy sauce.

"That's very good." Li Chengqi also ate a dry tofu roll dipped in hot sauce.

It's so refreshing, UU Reading www.uukanshu.net Especially the taste of green onion and coriander, as well as the slightly beany taste and texture mixed with dry tofu.

"Brother Yi, I will find you a job in the prince's palace. You..." Li Chengqi wanted to get Li Yi into his palace.

Before he could finish speaking, Li Longji came over with a glare: "Brother, no, asking the palace to do something will weaken your and my brother's backbone."

"Ah? Ah! Yes, I don't want the palace." Li Chengqi felt aggrieved.

What is the backbone? Can't I just leave it in my house?

It's obvious that if you don't agree, even if I, the eldest brother, want to be alone, you won't allow me.

Li Longji didn't feel guilty at all for not being able to help his eldest brother.

He thought to himself, this Li Yi is amazing.

There seems to be something new every day. Brother, what do you want him to do?

One day he comes up with something that can usurp power. Do you still want to be the emperor?

"I don't want to go to the palace, I want to be an official." Li Yi expressed his attitude.

He knew that the current princes had their rights restricted by the emperor.

There is no future in hanging around in the palace.

If you don't show your ability, then live.

If you show extraordinary abilities, will you be free of charge as the emperor's spy?

"What Brother Yi said is very good, but I don't know if we need manpower to harvest the wheat and pound the grain?"

Li Longji was happy and planned to lend Li Yi some people to process the millet after harvesting, peeling it and grinding it into flour.

"No, I have a good idea. Next to my house is Bashui. I can get a water tanker to process the wheat. Three or five people are enough."

Li Yi had already thought about this.

Li Longji and Li Chengqi stared, how could three or five people handle 800 acres of wheat?

Li Longji glared at his elder brother again, do you still want to get such a person to your Song Dynasty Palace?

Are you drifting off, or am I unable to lift the knife?
