She always wanted to be my cash machine

Chapter 57

A few days later, accompanied by Duan Tianyu, Gu Yanchuan went to see the manor Mrs. Zhu mentioned.The manor is a few miles away from Sanqing Mansion, which is Yuegu Village, Baishi County.The manor is quite large, and it also has a hundred acres of fertile land and a large piece of wasteland, all of which have been leased to nearby tenant farmers who have no land.

Gu Yanchuan considered that he still wanted to develop the ancient liquor business, so having this manor was really convenient.Such a large piece of wasteland can be used to grow sweet potatoes, and it can also be used to cook sweet potatoes.In the end, Gu Yanchuan decided to buy the manor.In order to make up for the mother and daughter, Gu Yanchuan didn't deliberately bargain.The fertile land is calculated at 10 taels per mu, and the total is 1000 taels of silver, while the wasteland is calculated at 1 taels per mu, which is about 200 taels.The overall environment of the manor is very good, but because it is located in a marginal area, Gu Yanchuan gave 1000 taels of silver out of the meaning of taking care of it.

After spending all this money, Gu Yanchuan felt that he didn't have any savings, and the development of liquor would require a lot of capital investment. Sure enough, buying a house is the easiest way to make people poor, but it also makes people feel the most sense of belonging.Especially with the help of Du Yanbo, after all the formalities were completed, Gu Yanchuan held the contract in his hand, happily no different from a sunflower.

After another ten days or so, the former Zhu's Mansion was transformed into Gu's Mansion. Of course, this was all due to the fact that the house was originally furnished and decorated very well.The craftsmen just redecorated Yanchuan's bedroom according to his preferences.

Gu Yanchuan picked an auspicious day, officially moved out of Du's residence, and moved into a new house.Some friends sent moving gifts, and surprisingly, even Mrs. Du also sent gifts, probably for Du Yanbo's sake.Of course, the most expensive gift came from Du Yanbo, a rare Jade Guanyin, it is said that he got it from his friend Yin Guang, and consecrated it before the Buddha.

According to Du Yanbo, the man carries Guanyin and the woman carries Buddha, hoping that this Guanyin can eliminate difficulties and bring good luck to Gu.So when Gu Yanchuan opened the gift, his hands almost trembled in fright, and he dropped the gift on the ground, but fortunately he was steady.After crossing, Gu still believed in the theory of the gods and Buddhas in his heart, so he set up a special room to enshrine this Buddha statue.

The moving day was busy until late at night, after all the guests had left, Gu Yanchuan finally had time to lie on the bed and catch his breath.Thinking of the recent period when I spent money like running water, I called 001, wanting to know my financial situation.

"001, where?" Gu Yanchuan asked in his mind.

[Ding dong!Host, do you still remember that you have me as a cutie?How long has it been since you summoned me! 】001 used an extremely greasy voice, and almost sent Gu Yanchuan away.

Gu Yanchuan had a black line on his face, "Don't get tired of it! Answer me about how much money I still have now?"

【yes!Now the 2 taels invested in the host stock has risen to 850 taels.But according to my analysis, this stock has also reached its limit, and it will face the possibility of falling later.So it is suggested that the host can throw. ] 001 said a lot without taking a breath.

"Okay. Just follow what you said." Gu Yanchuan stretched his waist. The increase in this wealth management system is still different from the modern one. It's better to be a salted fish and leave the matter to 001.But something suddenly flashed through his mind, Gu Yanchuan rolled over like a carp, and rolled over from the bed, "001?"

[Yes, host.What else can I order? 】

"I remember that I still have one chance to draw the lottery!"

【Yes.Host, do you want to draw a lottery now? 】

Gu Yanchuan thought about it, if he moved to a new house today, he should be lucky, maybe he could get an elixir or something, wouldn't it be wonderful?At this time, Gu's state is already like the feeling of drawing the elixir of immortality, "Draw it."

It was still the familiar formula, a big box appeared in front of Gu Yanchuan, and there was a big hand on the mouth of the box, just shout "grab", and that hand would grab the prize out of the box.

Gu Yanchuan tapped his fingers on his leg, counted the seconds, and when he waited for 8 seconds, he said, "Catch."

[Congratulations to the host, you have obtained a copy of "Peerless Preserved Egg Recipe", please check it carefully. 】

"Hey, why didn't you get the elixir?" Gu Yanchuan muttered in a low voice, very annoyed.

[Host, every time you can get a formula book, you are already very lucky!According to gossip, some hosts often get rags and other things, that is really unlucky. 】

After listening to 001's analysis, Gu Yanchuan felt better, but suddenly realized a problem, "001, can you communicate with the customer service of your system regularly? How many systems like this are there?"

[Host, only the system is the only one on a plane.Between the system customer service, only similar planes can be contacted, and energy is also required. 】

"It's a pity." Gu Yanchuan originally wanted to get something from a higher plane, but now it seems hopeless. "001, since I have the preserved egg recipe, you can also help me buy the "Peerless Fermented Bean Curd Recipe". It happened to be researched and developed together. When we succeed, we, Gu Ji, will open a store in Sanqingfu."

【alright!Now buy "Peerless Fermented Bean Curd Formula" for the host, and deduct 3000 taels of silver from the host. 】

Hearing the number reported by 001, Gu Yanchuan couldn't help shaking his face, his flesh hurts! The 3000 taels of silver just disappeared, and the money really couldn't help being spent.

In the next few days, Gu Yanchuan greeted Du Yanbo, saying that he was going to develop some new products and would go to the manor.Du Yanbo knew Gu Yanchuan's determination to carry forward Gu Ji, so he didn't try to dissuade him, he just said, "If you have difficulties, don't carry them alone."

In this way, Gu Yanchuan took Duan Tianyu and Huang Shanxing to Yuegu Village.At this time, Zhu's Manor has become Gu's Manor, which is about the size of a modern school, which shows that the old man is also quite powerful.

According to Gu Yanchuan's plan, he planned to use this manor as a research and development base and a winery.On the wasteland next to the manor, a winery can be built. In the rest of the wasteland, Gu Yanchuan plans to plant sweet potatoes, which can be used as food and as a material for making liquor.Of course, this is a follow-up matter. At this time, Gu Yanchuan is going to enrich the items in the grocery store and develop preserved eggs and fermented bean curd.

After reading the two peerless recipes, Gu Yanchuan felt that the production of preserved eggs might be more complicated, so he decided to study preserved eggs first.After the preserved egg is shelled, the protein is brown jelly, and the protein often has pine needle-like crystals or patterns, hence the name preserved egg.Egg yolk can be clearly divided into several layers of different colors, that is, dark green, khaki, gray green, orange yellow, etc., colorful and very pleasing to the eye, so it is also called preserved egg or multicolored preserved egg.

After reading the peerless recipe, Gu Yanchuan knew that high-quality fresh duck eggs must be used for processing preserved eggs, and the freshness of duck eggs is an important factor in determining the quality of preserved eggs.So after collecting hundreds of duck eggs, Gu followed the instructions in the book to conduct sensory evaluation of the duck eggs, illuminate the eggs, knock the eggs, and grade the duck eggs.

The next step is to boil the ingredients. According to the ingredients standard in the book, pour a certain amount of pure water, salt, black tea powder, pine and cypress branches, and clear water into the pot and heat to boil.Then there is the flushing material: prepare another empty tank, weigh the quicklime and put it in the tank, and then put the yellow dan powder and plant ash on the quicklime.

Then pour the above-mentioned boiled material water into the vat, when the quicklime encounters the juice, it will melt by itself, and at the same time, it will release heat and emit high temperature.And fish out the stones in the feed liquid with a net bag. In order to ensure the concentration of the feed liquid, quicklime must be supplemented according to the weight of the stones pulled out.

After the various materials in the tank are fully dissolved, the material liquid is allowed to cool and stand still for soup filling.After everything is ready, put the selected first duck eggs into clean tanks in grades.Of course, don’t forget to lay a layer of clean wheat straw on the bottom of the tank before lowering the tank, so as to prevent the duck eggs on the bottom layer from directly touching the bottom of the hard tank and being crushed by the pressure of many layers of duck eggs above.Egg placement is also particular, it needs to be laid flat layer by layer, and should not be erected upright, so as to prevent the egg yolk from being biased to one end.Fill it about 6-10 cm away from the mouth of the tank, add a bamboo grate cover, and press it down with a wooden stick to prevent the duck eggs from floating after filling the soup.

After everything is finished, stir the cooled material liquid to make it uniform in concentration, and slowly pour it into the tank from one side of the tank according to the required amount until the duck eggs are completely submerged in the material soup. Do not pour the soup violently. Avoid breaking eggs and wasting broth.After the soup is poured, let it stand until the duck eggs are pickled and matured in the soup.

The key to success lies in temperature control. The temperature of the soup varies with the seasons. In spring and autumn, the temperature of the soup should be controlled at about 15°C, and the lowest temperature in winter is 20°C.

All steps must be precisely controlled.But the last step is indeed the key to making a peerless preserved egg.That is to strictly control the temperature of the tank room.Generally, it is required to be between 21 and 24°C.But in the "clearing period", the contents of the egg begin to change, and the egg white first becomes thinner.After about 3 days, the protein gradually coagulates.At this time, the indoor temperature can be increased to 25-27°C to accelerate the penetration of lye and other ingredients into the eggs.After about 15 days, the indoor temperature can be lowered to 16-18°C, so that the ingredients can slowly enter the eggs.

After all the steps are completed, the next step is to wait patiently for 45 days before the preserved eggs can be baked.But we care about where the boss lives, 45 days is really too long, so when he found the instant preserved egg while browsing the recipe, he decided to use this thing to explore the way.The steps are similar to the previous ones, that is, duck eggs are replaced with eggs, but the storage time is shortened to eight or nine days.

While making instant preserved eggs, Gu Yanchuan started to develop fermented bean curd again.Fermented bean curd in modern times is a magical meal for every household. There are red fermented bean curd, white fermented bean curd, green fermented bean curd, etc., and different seasonings can be added to adjust the taste according to the tastes of different regions.

Gu Yanchuan decided to develop red fermented bean curd with distiller's grains and white fermented bean curd with sesame oil flavor according to the taste of the local people.The completion period of these fermented bean curds is relatively short, from the beginning of Gu Yanchuan's production to the completion, it took about ten days in total.

Ten days later, Gu Yanchuan's two major products will be released.After thinking about it, Gu Yanchuan decided to invite Du Yanbo to taste it. After all, he is also a person who has eaten all kinds of food from all over the world. If he is sure, he will naturally have no worries about sales.

Thinking of this, Gu Yanchuan brought two novelty items overnight and asked Duan Tianyu to drive back to Sanqing Mansion.
