I'm working on infrastructure in the wizarding world

Chapter 30

The working people were really beaming, and pulled out complete pots, pots and bowls from a pile of ashes.This is the fifth time they have fired, and the failures of the previous few times did not make them discouraged, because each time they will experiment with the fired pottery, and then gradually replace it with suitable soil and suitable kneading methods according to Amaru's records. Drying time and kiln firing time.

Besides, there are occasional pointers from their respected majesty, otherwise, how could the successful pottery be fired so quickly?This is something that nobles can only create with magic!

Norman also picked up a clay bowl and looked at it in his hand.Although the pottery bowl is a bit rough to the touch, it is already a serious bowl. As long as they master the firing method, they will probably be able to burn exquisite pottery soon.

Orcs also like pottery. They often use their own cattle and sheep to exchange for cloth, pottery, and various condiments from humans to enrich their lives.After so many years, I never thought that these things can be fired, and there is no need for alchemists to use magic crystals.

Kang Nan is obviously different from those nobles with upturned nostrils. He is too smart and fully aware of his position. He can not only put down his figure, but also distinguish the attitudes of the people around him.Don't overstep the rules, don't try to be aggressive, and maintain a perfect social distance in a friendly manner.

Norman felt that he had never failed to seduce people for so many years, but in the end he had a big fall on the child who he didn't pay attention to at the beginning.He must face this matter squarely now, and face it with a cooperative attitude, or try to truly enter the position of a friend.

Or...

He can also compete for a certain position.

Kang Nan was in a daze upstairs for a moment, then shook his head amusedly.What did it matter to him what Charl said to Landis and Norman?He is just a poverty alleviation cadre, and his goal now is to be self-sufficient.No matter how hard others try to get on him, he has to be willing to do it himself.

But now this situation is completely like a chicken talking to a duck, and the three views are not in harmony. If they want to work hard, it depends on whether they are willing to accept it.No matter what vows the old Lehman made in the past, it seems that the initiative is still in his own hands.

The ancestors didn't cheat their own descendants, so they are the founding kings, so it's still reliable.

Kang Nan figured it out, so he felt relieved and went to look at the mill with his hands shaken.

The mills at this time were very simple, and the shelling and grinding of noodles basically relied on water.According to what Old Andy said, this mill is just a rough processing mill. If you want to eat finer wheat flour, you need magic to remove impurities in the wheat flour.This kind of wheat flour is eaten by the nobles, and the baked bread is more fragrant.

Kang Nan thought about the bad croissants he had eaten, and shed tears of sympathy for the nobles of this era.He has no interest in that kind of rough and sour bread, besides, what's wrong with such good flour?Noodles, pancakes, steamed buns.Why waste butter to make bread, eat too much and get angry!

In fact, the most important thing is to remove the outer layer of bran. If the bran is not removed cleanly, the surface will be rough.However, it is difficult to remove the bran with ancient techniques, so if you want to eat whiter and finer flour, you can only rely on magic.

Kang Nan taught them to use the second grinding method to grind the wheat grains on one side first, then sieve them finely with a sieve, and then grind the remaining wheat cores again.Although it is not as good as magic purification, it can already get very fine flour.It is not impossible to want to be more delicate, just grind and sieve again and again, and use the middle wheat core to grind the flour.

But he was not so pretentious. Although the flour with bran tasted rough, it was more nutritious.And at this time, I don't pay attention to those who have or don't have it. Since the test can indeed get better flour, that's enough.

"Let's eat noodles tonight," Connan said to Emily, who became the kitchen manager, as he entered the kitchen with bags of flour.

There were originally four maids left, Aisha, Emily, Cary and Ali.Now Aisha has been promoted to the maid supervisor, and Emily has also been promoted to the kitchen supervisor because she cooks well.As for the newly appointed maid, Leia, became Old Ford's special maid, responsible for the trivial life and personal safety of the only doctor in Olanka.

"Noodles?" Emily had never heard of such a food. "Baked bread into sticks?"

"No, no, let me tell you how to do it." Connan gestured and asked Emily to move a half-meter-high large noodle tank, as well as their freshly squeezed rapeseed oil.

Yes, the rapeseed harvest is already in full swing.The sun-dried rapeseeds are fried, then packed into lumps with wide leaves and reed stalks and stuffed into the middle of the oil tank prepared in advance, and a lot of rapeseed oil is obtained by backlogging and beating, one jar after another All sealed up and put in the basement.

The food and vegetables collected now are divided into five and five according to what Kangnan said before, but because the slaves and civilians do not have warehouses, they weighed them and put them in the warehouses in the castle. They still eat big pots of rice every day, but the food they eat is all It is the food grown by oneself.

After the noodles are kneaded, wake up for a while, roll them into long strips and put them in a large pottery basin, brush each layer with oil, cover them with a clean sackcloth and continue to proof, when to eat and when to pull them directly into the water Just cook it.With noodles, it is natural to make stew. Now that there is enough rapeseed oil, there are still a lot of "compensation" meat left over, which are made into bacon and hung in the ventilated basement. Now take it out, wash it, cut it into cubes, and serve with various Stir-fry the vegetables together, add water and salt, and stew, it is a pot of fragrant marinade.

When the teaching was over, Kang Nan came out of the kitchen sweating tiredly, shaking his arms, and when he looked up, he saw Char came back with Landis.He couldn't help but took half a step back, and his head started to hurt again.

Charle smiled at Kang Nan and said, "I am causing trouble to Your Majesty."

Kang Nan laughed dryly, glanced at Landis who was looking around, and said, "Didn't you mean to go back to Dragon Island? Why are you back again?"

Landis's face fell down, and he looked at Kang Nan silently but didn't speak.

Kang Nan was found to have goosebumps all over his body. Landis was really good-looking. As long as he was staring at him, he would feel guilty for no reason.

forget it……

"By the way, where's the jar you took away from me?" Kang Nan suddenly looked at Char, "Where's the jar?"

Char looked at his empty hands, "Uh..."

"Hey, didn't you leave?" Norman came back from the pottery workshop, and saw Landis standing on the square at a glance.

Before Landis could refute, Kang Nan asked in surprise, "Eh? Why are you still here?"

Norman: ...

After all, Norman is a rare diplomat among orcs in a hundred years. He smiled and said, "I didn't leave. I just went to the pottery workshop. I think His Majesty really created a miracle."

Kang Nan was immediately distracted, and the word "miracle" made him blushed, and quickly waved his hands: "Oh, it's not me, it's the power and wisdom of the people that made it."

"What's for dinner then?" Norman continued, "I've slept for too long, I'm really hungry."

Kang Nan said: "The mill has ground new wheat flour, and we eat stewed noodles at night."

Norman immediately complimented: "It sounds delicious."

Landis tilted his head and asked his own question, "What is braised noodles? Why do you want to beat them?"

Connan: ...

Char didn't want to participate in this kind of unnutritious conversation, so he greeted Conan and ran out to find the jar.Landis also seemed to know that he was completely inferior to Norman in terms of speaking, so he simply closed his mouth and began to think hard about how to break the deadlock between himself and Connan as naturally as Norman did.

"Is it convenient to store pumpkin and sweet potato after drying? Wow, Your Majesty, you are really smart. It is also convenient to store potato and sweet potato into powder? I have never seen anyone change these two foods into this way. Your Majesty You are really amazing."

Kang Nan was almost blown away by Norman's rainbow fart, he was at a loss, his toes were so embarrassed that he almost scratched out a three-room living room: "Hey, it's really nothing, it's everyone's idea, the result of everyone's hard work, Ha ha."

"I saw the farmland and planted new crops? There is another kind I have never seen before, that is, those planted in the water. What are they?" Norman felt that when he woke up, the whole of Olanka was a little bit It's different.

"Oh, that's a new kind of grain I discovered. The seeds produced are somewhat similar to wheat, so some people harvested some, picked the fullest seeds and planted them. I don't know if they will grow." When Kang Nan thought of those rice seeds improved with gold coins, he felt extremely happy, "Because it was found by the water, it seems that it can grow better in water, so I call it rice."

"Your Majesty is so smart!" Norman's eyes were full of smiles.Then he pointed to the big rock in the middle of the playground and asked, "Then this is the sundial His Majesty once said, right?"

Connan was even happier when he saw the sundial, "Yes, the sundial is divided into twelve grids, and the shadow cast by the stone pillar in the middle will fall in different grids with time, just look at it When it arrives, it is very convenient."

"Your Majesty is great!"

Kang Nan rubbed his face in embarrassment, "Yes, that's it..."

Landis was completely speechless. He looked at Norman for the first time and found that this orc was really powerful.This little mouth babbled without stopping, and it was obvious that although Kang Nan was a little embarrassed, he was still very happy on the whole.

He pursed his lips and said, "Why should your Majesty be humble? Since you can do so many things, it proves your ability. Being too humble will make people think you are hypocritical."

Norman: ...

Connan: ...

Charle who just came back after finding the jar: ...

Landis frowned slightly, "What? Did I say something wrong again?"

Why is this little king's mind so difficult to guess? ? ?
