Da Tang: Three days later, I was frantically collecting supplies

Chapter 207

Chapter 207 Paving the asphalt road, crashing popcorn.

The location of the oil field is far away, and it is good to go back and forth with a car and gasoline.

Since the Turkic regions have been taken into the country, naturally they cannot continue the former place names.

However, the land is relatively desolate, either mountains or grass, located north of Chang’an, Li Shimin called that land Anbei. Since oil fields spew out a lot of oil every day, a large site is needed for storage.

At present, there is basically nothing to consume oil, so on the one hand, Li ordered people to build tractors and consume diesel. On the other hand, let Zhang Rang study the structure of the car, the structure of the engine.

At the same time, Li Kei also made oil drums on a large scale to store the oil after fractionation. Diesel, gasoline, kerosene, lubricating oil and much more.

Moreover, the residue left over from fractionation is bitumen.

So much asphalt, shipped every day, no need and nowhere to put it.

In order to avoid Luo Die Wang Yurou going to the broken road again, Li Kei used asphalt and stones to mix and began to lay a wide asphalt road, and half a month passed in the blink of an eye.

The corn harvest is again abundant.

The entire Datang 23 was immersed in the busyness of the harvest.

Liaoshun is even more hot, and many tractors come in handy. The people began transporting corn on tractors.

Although there was more food, the people were still sullen. Because the grain is all corn, and I am tired of eating it.

It’s not hungry, but every day I nest corn porridge, this is especially unbearable.

So the people calculated to sell food, but found that there were too many grains to sell, and it was not easy to sell for takeaway. Switching to rice or wheat, the price is ten times worse.

A few days later, Li discovered that the momentum was not good.

“Brother, it’s not good, this year’s corn planting, the yield is quite large, but people have eaten enough.” Now corn is a penny, and no one has bought it yet. Rice and wheat have risen to 10 cents a bucket. ”

Li Kei had already guessed and realized that this situation would occur.

They don’t know that corn is extremely nutritious in fact.

There is a lot of crude fiber, and although the taste is poor, it is still very good for the body.

As a staple food, it is still far less delicious than the delicate grains such as rice and wheat. Just like Li Shimin said, they are all fed and supported.

“Okay, allocate a sum of money to go out and collect all the corn.”

Li was stunned.

“Brother, we are all corn in Liaoshun, how much do we have to harvest?”

“As much as you collect, the price rises to 3 cents and stop buying.”

“Okay, got it!”

“Wait, it’s time for you to start a few farms. If you don’t like corn, you can always eat meat. ”

Li Yu nodded: “Well, yes, I also thought so, I still think it’s a pity that this good grain is used as feed, but since corn can fall to this price, it’s no pity.” ”

“I will immediately arrange for people to build farms and strive to build one in one state.”

“Okay, let’s go! In addition, private farming is also encouraged. ”

For farms, Li has rich experience.

As a result, Li Su built larger granaries, large granaries in various states. Dozens of vehicles are sent out every day to buy corn kernels and build farms. When the people saw that King Liang began to collect grain, they all shot out the corn in their hands.

A few days later, the corn Li Yu received actually reached a terrifying million stones.

The granaries are full, but the corn on the market seems to be in unlimited supply, and there is no end to harvesting. The people saw more corn, and King Liang began to build farms again, and they all followed suit. Keep some chickens and ducks at home and feed corn.

After a while, you can still eat eggs and duck eggs every day, and at the end of the year, you can still eat meat when you kill chickens. Feeding livestock without enough food is a way to think of.

After all, for so many years, I have not been troubled by too much food. Most of them are because there is not enough food to eat, and they are hungry and cold.

Li Kei flipped through the information and looked for a way to make industrial alcohol and starch. In modern times, corn is the main raw material for alcohol.

Unfortunately, this waste gas that needs to be cracked into oil is through high concentration ethylene and very complex industrial technology. At the current level, it cannot be done.

However, Li Kei thought of another way, that is, to make corn into food. For example, popcorn.

Another example is foods made from corn.

At the same time, potatoes are not easy to store and can also be made into dried potatoes.

……

On this day, Li Kei found Zhang Rang, who was intoxicated with the study of gasoline engines.

So Li Kei found a few skilled workers and made a batch of models for popcorn.

At present, cooking oil is relatively scarce, and it is a bit unrealistic to make corn popcorn in the modern way. Therefore, Li Kei retreated and made popcorn equipment.

At the same time, tasteless popcorn will definitely not work.

Several daughters-in-law in the family have nothing to do all day long, and they are either looking for nothing or asking for nothing all day. Li Kei originally arranged the work, and he was on the recliner at home and went to the ground again.

As a result, it was not Luo Die who pounced on him and wanted to tell himself a story and coax himself to sleep.

It was like a picture to pinch his shoulders, massage it, and unconsciously lie on himself. Li Ke’s thought of Wang Yurou and Rouge suddenly fainted.

It is quite comfortable to pay 570 a day or two, but after a long time, the body can’t stand it! It really responds to the saying: drought that dies, waterlogging that dies…

So Li Kei taught them the sugar production method, so that they were all busy. Of course, not only maltose, but also rock sugar, sugar production process. A few people had something to do, and finally got busy.

A dozen days later, Li Kei made the machine for popcorn. In fact, it is a closed furnace that can be calcined.

Put some corn on the cob under it, light it, clean the corn, pour some sugar, and grill it on the fire. Turn while roasting.

Until the pressure reaches a certain level, a long marijuana bag is put on the popcorn machine. Dig open the valve.

Just listen

“Bang!”

With a loud bang, a pot of popcorn was baked. The people in the family were surprised.

I didn’t expect this corn to be able to play like this, it’s just so interesting. Li Kei put the popcorn on the plate, and several people tentatively ate one.

“Hmm! It’s delicious! It’s so sweet! ”

Several people ate one after another.

Only Rouge is not very interested in eating, but especially interested in the stove.

“Husband, you get out of the way, let me break a pot of popcorn!”
