Chen Xi actually didn't know much about what this thing was, but Chen Xi knew that the stem of this thing had a sweet taste, which was actually enough. When I didn¡¯t come to Jiaozhou before, I didn¡¯t know much about the environment here. After I came here, I found that this kind of thing grows all over the mountains and plains. What else can I say? The free sugary straw is of course used to make wine. Even if I don't know what the heck this thing is or what it's called, as long as it's edible and has a sweet taste, it can be used to make wine. Even if it can't be used to make sugar, it can be used to make wine. It¡¯s not a loss, these days, alcohol is also a component of people¡¯s happiness. As for whether the brew tastes good or not, it doesn't matter. The sweet wine can be used as a flavoring if it doesn't work. As for the price, the grass in Jiaozhou costs a hell of a lot of money. Just cut it. It's all over the mountains and plains. What you get back is just a small amount of money. "Can this thing make wine?" Liu Bei looked at the two-meter-high pole in front of him with a strange look and was a little thicker than his thumb. He casually broke one off, and then naturally smelled a smell of plant juice from the stem. It had a refreshing fragrance, then I wiped it with my hands and stuffed it directly into my mouth. After chewing it for two times, I felt that the taste was okay, and then I spit out a bunch of dregs. "It's okay. It's easier to chew than sugar cane, but there is too much dregs, not much juice, and the taste is not very sweet." Liu Bei spat out a mouthful of dregs and then said to Chen Xi. "That's enough. If you can taste the sweetness, that's great." Chen Xi smiled, accustomed to Liu Bei's down-to-earth behavior. "Actually, this thing is sweeter than many northern fruits." Liu Bei suddenly commented, this is not nonsense, this thing is actually quite good. Chen Xi scratched his head, how should he explain that this thing is sucrose, while the mainstream fruit in the north is glucose. The sweetness of the two is different. In terms of sugar content, they are two different things. "In short, this thing can make wine. In fact, I have always felt that sugary things can make wine. It just depends on how you make it." Chen Xi said with a smile, "As for the degree, we will consider it later. If it doesn't work, you can press it down." The dregs of the juice are used as fire starters, and then distilled. The plant ash can also be used as fertilizer, which is quite good." Liu Bei nodded silently. This is indeed Chen Xi's habit of not letting go of the dregs, but it's quite cool when he thinks about it. Not bad. "Go back and send a letter to Chang'an and ask them to send a group of professional brewers over there. They have brewed a lot of things over the years. Come here to study and study. When we get Jiaozhou, they should also make the wine. Come out." Chen Xi said calmly. He originally planned to process coarse grains and fisheries, but now that there are better options, he might as well move the processing of coarse grains and fisheries to other places. After all, these days, these things have to be calculated. "You didn't bring such a person with you." Liu Bei Shao said with some doubts. "I told you that I originally planned to engage in grain processing or fishery processing. I never thought there was such a thing here. I only saw it after I came here." Chen Xi rolled his eyes and said, "No need to fertilize, no need." Irrigate, sow a handful of seeds and leave. When the time comes to harvest, you can squeeze the juice and use it to make wine. In this case, why do anything else. "This kind of thing has lower investment cost than the previous two, requires lower technology, and can withstand more manpower. Of course I choose this one." Chen Xi said with a smile, "Adapting measures to local conditions is the most suitable. Although Jiaozhou It's a bit like destiny and geographical location. " "Destiny and geographical location?" Liu Bei looked at Chen Xi in confusion. "We won't discuss this anymore. Just remember that this place will develop rapidly." Chen Xi waved his hand and said, there is no way, Sun Ce and Zhou Yu have completely occupied Southeast Asia. With the geographical advantage of Jiaozhou, what else is there to talk about? Even a pig can be blown away! "Yeah." Liu Bei didn't ask any more questions. Chen Xi would handle this kind of thing very well. At the same time, several other carriages are happily eating various Jiaozhou-specific snacks. If the coconut snacks, coconut cakes, coconut cakes and so on in other places are full of sincerity, then these here Things, they all want you to be unable to see their true form. There is no way there is the only super-large coconut processing factory in Han Dynasty here, which mainly produces various coconut processed products, such as coconut paste, shredded coconut, coconut milk, coconut sugar, coconut milk, and all the sugary things that Chen Xi often gets confused. You can drink coconut wine, and of course there are strange things like buttons and charcoal, but charcoal is only used by locals for barbecues, and Bingzhou anthracite is used in the north. Therefore, the dim sum made here, with the coconut and shredded coconut sprinkled on it, seems to be free of charge. In fact, if you really want to say it, it does not cost much. "Jiaozhou is actually quite good. The food is very good."?The entrance is a bit strange, but once you get used to it, it¡¯s a pleasure. "Si Niang happily ate plates of snacks in the carriage. "There are so many shredded coconuts in the Central Plains that they should be worth five baht each. "Liu Tong said with emotion, "People here feel like they are living off this, and there are strange things like coconut cakes. I can't taste the rice in it, I can only taste the sweetness of coconut, and Why do people here have so much oil? " "Because it is coconut oil, a new product produced by a large processing factory here, but the output is only enough for Jiaozhou itself. Chen Hou is really, really admirable. "Shi Xie's youngest daughter, Shi Wan, who was shipped over, said to Liu Tong with eyes shining brightly. "To be honest, Liu Tong knew from the moment the girl got on the bus to act as their guide that this girl had bad intentions and wanted to take advantage of Chen Xi. Zhen Mi just smiled gently, come on, try it, if you can impress my husband, I will give you the title of the second most beautiful woman in the world for free. "Okay, can this thing still extract oil?" "Liu Tong looked at Shi Wan in confusion and asked. Shi Wan nodded repeatedly, then looked around and found a jar of local specialties packaged for Liu Tong and others, which contained the so-called coconut oil. "Anyway We in Jiaozhou can survive on coconuts. "Shi Wan said excitedly, "The people in Jiuzhen County and Rinan County are now very obedient and planting coconuts. They used to always make trouble, and even raised troops to besiege the county town, but they were all stopped by my brother. Repelled. " "Well, the environment here was really bad before, but now it seems to be okay. "Liu Tong didn't delve into the meaning of the previous rebellion. This guy's attitude was very clear. If any of you are unhappy with what happened ten or twenty years ago, go find my father underground. Don't come to me. I don't know. , I¡¯m just a princess, princess, do you understand? ¡°Yeah, yeah, we are also building roads now. Although there are always some idiots who say that our road construction destroys their feng shui, or sacrifices, etc., but we We have knocked them down one by one. We have knocked down many of these idiots in the past few years. Now every county in Jiaozhou has opened roads. Shi Wan said very proudly. In her opinion, her father did a really good job. Although Shi Wan did not understand what her father meant by bringing her here as a guide, this did not prevent Shi Wan from seeing her as a guide. Her father worshiped her. When my father came here, Jiaozhou was in chaos. Even the local people didn¡¯t know that they were people of the Han Dynasty. Now they are all registered, proud of the people of the Han Dynasty, and working hard to build Han culture. Come closer. "Knock it over?" "Wu Yuan, who was lying at the window of the carriage, looked out. Well, she already understood what the so-called knocking over meant. The traces on the road showed that when Shi Xie strangled the local chief, it was also a bloody method. "It's fine now. There are a lot more, and there are fewer people who rob the road. I have encountered them before, but now there are some villages down there that are a bit out of control. "Shi Wan tilted his head and said in a confused tone. This kid really lacks Shi Xie's brains. With his political acumen, he doesn't even know that he is being played to death. "What happened in the village down there? Liu Tong said with a smile, reaching out to push the tea tray in front of him to Si Niang, his expression still so gentle. "Some local tribes always steal things from our processing factory. The most extreme one last time was in In Ninan County, the coconut processing factory we built for them was vacated by them, and then we built another one on their tribe's side, but then we stopped their coconut supply, and then they returned the processing factory to them. We are. "Shi Wan pressed her finger on her chin and explained with a somewhat reminiscence look. Wu Yuan and Zhen Mi looked at each other, with the corners of their mouths twitching vaguely. They both knew why Chen Xi wanted to drag Liu Bei over. Okay, don't look at a processing plant. It seems that Chen Xi can place it casually, but in fact, a processing plant that can house thousands of people is worth over 100 million in the eyes of Wu Yuan and others. Money. Is it true that the poor people are so cruel? "In fact, there were cases of people stealing coconut products in the early days, but later Chen Hou found out about it and distributed enough to the people every month. A large amount of coconut processed products, which is why there are so many of them on the market. "Shi Wan said with a smile. "Chen Xi also had a headache at the time, which is why Shi Xie later consciously reduced his salary. Since you have taken the product and I will send you the product, let's just lower the salary. " Plus Chen Xi Because the channels were blocked, it didn¡¯t make much sense for the people of Jiaozhou to sell them sporadically. After the management was finally strengthened, stealing was solved because it couldn¡¯t be sold for money. It is true that the price in Jiaozhou has increased significantly, but you don¡¯t have the ability to transport it out. , we can only make some cakes and the like. As a result, Jiaozhou coconut snacks have an extremely wide variety, because tens of thousands of people get them from the factory every month.??That coconut processed product.
