County Magistrate Du Xin stood near the shelling machine and watched. The shell and the kernel were separated, and sometimes the shell entered the kernel.

He squatted down and picked up an acorn kernel, licked it with his tongue, and the corners of his mouth were bitter and bitter.

This is the case with pure wild ones. Soaking in water for a long time can soak out the tannin.

Every family has a lot of acorns, and they are afraid that there will not be enough food, so they are delicious.

Before Du Xin came to be the county magistrate, more than 90% of the local people had a lot of time to eat acorn noodles every year.

It tastes bitter, and there is no time to soak it. In addition, it is difficult to peel the shell with a pestle, which delays the work time.

"If you want to quickly remove the bitterness inside, it is best to throw it into the river with a basket woven with bamboo and branches. In winter... the river here is not frozen, so try to be safe."

Li Yi pulled Princess Yongmu over to watch together.

If you use a large pool to soak the kernels, take them out, the tannin concentration in the pool water will be high, and then soak the shells.

The dumbest method is also the most economical and labor-saving.

"Now it is mainly used for tanning leather, which is produced locally and sold in Chang'an City.

The newspapers in Lijia Village can advertise for us in small places for free, which is considered poverty alleviation.

As for the price, you can consider it yourself and think it is cost-effective.

Another use is to dig wells, which are turning around and around. It is easier to use tannin extract."

When Li Yi said the word poverty alleviation, he suddenly thought that Luonan was once a poor county.

The transportation at that time was hundreds of times stronger than it is now, but it was still poor. You can imagine how difficult life was for the people at that time.

"Master Li, we don't know the price. You tell us what to do, we listen to you, and then sell it to you."

Some people took over Li Yi's words and pushed the problem to Li Yi.

"Shi Datou, are you crazy? You are asking Master Li for money. No, we sell it ourselves." Some people immediately stopped and blamed the person who spoke.

"That's right. If Li Dongzhu gives too much, he will have to pay for it. If he gives too little, will we think that all the money is made by Li Dongzhu?"

"Li Dongzhu, give us a rough price and we will adjust it up or down accordingly."

"Don't make it difficult for Li Dongzhu. Isn't the benefit given by Li Dongzhu enough?"

The people next to him spoke with conscience, not wanting Li Yi to bear the loss.

Li Yi smiled and nodded: "Okay! I can buy it, I can still make money. The purchase price and the sales price are different. When you see that the sales price is high, you can sell it yourself."

Li Yi was also not clear about the market. Others have other methods to make leather, and the price of tannin extract is difficult to determine.

He needs to see the cost of local people making tannin extract, mainly the difficulty of obtaining raw materials and the time cost.

Then calculate the efficiency of leather tanning using tannin extract and the efficiency of leather making by other methods, and draw a comparison.

In this way, we can know how much is reasonable to sell, and there is also leather tanning in our own village.

Another thing is drilling, to see whether the drilling platform after adding tannin extract saves man-hours.

There is another one, which is used to purify water. If the water is not clean, sprinkle some tannin extract into it, and the dirt in the water will form flocs with the tannin extract.

In the 1990s, when tap water was polluted, tannin extract would be extracted and wrapped in paper for residents to use.

"Purify water... seawater? Tannin? Sailing!" Li Yi suddenly knew how to sell tannin extract at a high price.

Use tannin to purify seawater and add it to the boiler, and use solar energy to evaporate and make water for people to drink.

"The use of tannin extract..." Li Yi began to speak, like giving a report.

The eunuchs and palace maids took notes with their pens regardless of the cold weather.

As soon as they heard what the use was, they immediately understood that it was a technology.

The people stopped talking as if they had a telepathic connection and listened to Li Yi. No matter whether they understood it or not, they just listened.

They felt that Li Yi was very knowledgeable. Li Yi once threw out a lot of plagiarized poems, and the people in the county could still recite a few of them.

"Just because the sea is blue and wide, there will be more rubber people in the future." Li Yi sighed after speaking about the application.

"Brother Yi, can tannin extract be used to turn seawater into drinkable water?" Li Chengqi is in charge of the ocean, and he attaches the most importance to this.

"Anyway, it is much better than drinking seawater directly. Drinking it directly will kill you. There is not only salt in seawater, but also other things.

In the future, people who go out to sea will be sold tannin extract to them. Now...

Starting today, boil hot water to soak acorn shells, then extract and dry them according to the method, and buy them at a high price."

Li Yi said, shouting to the people around him, hurry up and work.

He thought of the Guangzhou Maritime Customs, where people from his village served as officials, including the Yulin Flying Cavalry.

"Families willing to make tannin extract will be given five strings of silver first, and then the amount will be settled based on the quantity."

Li Yi took another look at the people wearing hemp clothes stuffed with grass, and decided to pay first.

He wanted to send tannin extract to Guangzhou to sell to foreign merchants, and tell them that this thing can turn undrinkable seawater into drinkable water at a critical moment.

"Master Li, please tell everyone the truth. Five strings of silver is too much money. How much do you want?" Du Xin stood up to ask for his people.

"One pound of processed flour, fifty coins." Li Yi quoted.

One hundred pounds is five coins, he turned around and could sell it for one pound and five coins, no, fifty coins, to see if anyone would buy it?

When he first sold it, he had to say the price was higher, one pound for one hundred coins, a life-saving thing when there was no fresh water at sea.

"Okay, let's do it, after dinner, go back and look for acorns, if there are no shelled ones, use your hands, make money, Li Dongzhu will pay."

Shi Laoliu shouted loudly, and the other people clenched their fists, wishing they could keep Li Yi in the county.

Children were the happiest, and when adults were happy, they felt that the whole world was beautiful.

The sun is so bright, and the weather is not cold all day.

Li Yi went back and sat down to eat. Li Chengqi asked: "Did you tell Bi Gou?"

"Pay taxes. You must pay taxes when you go through customs. Thirty percent. No extra money will be given to Lao Bi." Li Yi was willing to do so and never took the initiative to evade taxes.

He told Bi Gou and Li Longji that he would collect taxes. If he tried to evade taxes himself, would his life be deducted?

After Wu Jieyu knew the situation, she looked annoyed: "It can't be kept secret, otherwise you should make it yourself, and plant a lot in the future, and it will be spread out."

Queen Wang looked at the happy people: "The people have benefited, and we are here to help the people. Uncle can say that tannin extract can make money by treating seawater today, and there will be other ways to make big money tomorrow."

"Yes!" Liu Jieyu agreed. She had a good impression of her son-in-law. Her son-in-law had many ideas. How many good ideas did he come up with after taking a walk?

"No matter how much, as long as the foreign merchants can't learn it, when we export it, the Maritime Customs will block it, and we can make money.

And it has a wide range of uses. It cannot be kept secret for export. It should help the people improve their living standards in the Tang Dynasty."

Li Yi didn't think of doing it secretly and then exchanging it for money.

Oak trees are widely distributed in the Tang Dynasty. People eat them with them, which is the most convenient way to make jelly.

Wang Wei came over at this time and glanced at Li Longji and others. Seeing that the other party did not show disgust, he stood behind Li Yi.

"Does Li Dongzhu know that there are many acorn worms here? Is there a way to deal with it?" Wang Wei wanted to confirm Li Yi's magic again.

"Wen Tian, ​​what should I do if there are many worms?" Li Yi did not answer Wang Wei's words, but turned his head to ask Princess Yongmu.

"Can it be eaten?" Princess Yongmu asked back.
