Because Shen Jingli hired a lot of people and paid a lot of money. After collecting 50 mu of peanuts in less than three days, he picked and dried the peanuts. It took more than ten days for the oil extraction workshop to begin.
Shen Jingli grows peanuts very well, with an output of 400 Jin per mu. Because it is the most native oil extractor, it only produces 3-6 taels of oil per kilogram of peanuts, and 50 mu of peanuts, with a total of more than 20000 Jin. Shen Jingli keeps 1000 kg of peanuts for planting, and 2000 kg is used for frying peanuts and drunkard peanuts, and the rest are all pressed into oil, which makes a total of more than seven Jin.
In those days, Shen Jingli went to the oil extraction workshop every day for fear that there was something wrong with this batch of peanut oil.
After learning the news, Yan Chengli also came to see it once or twice. He smelled the smell of peanut oil and was immediately attracted. He took 50 Jin of peanut oil back to his house on the same day, which made Shen Jingli's flesh ache.
This peanut oil is really delicious. It's much more fragrant than rapeseed oil. " Every time Jinyu comes to the factory with Shen Jingli, she is fascinated by peanut oil fans and sniffs.
Not only does it smell good, it tastes better. "
Xun'er was lying on Shen Jingli's back and looked around curiously. Sometimes when he saw something he was interested in, he would point to Shen Jingli and shout, "ah, am, am
" those are oil dregs. " Shen Jingli patiently explained to him that although he didn't necessarily understand it, he couldn't dampen his enthusiasm. "What are you going to do with these oily sludge?
Shen Jingli asked steward Wang that he didn't know much about the role of oil residue. However, he heard that it could be used to feed fish. It was estimated that he could raise pigs, chickens and ducks. It seemed that he could fatten the field.
"I don't know. It's the first time I've seen peanut oil." Wang Guanshi tells the truth. He has no experience in making things for the first time.
But the oil residue is also very fragrant. It's a pity to throw it away like this. " Wang Guanshi was not originally from Beijing. When he was a child, his family suffered from a drought. His family ate bark and Guanyin soil and wandered to the capital. Therefore, he cherished food.
It must not be wasted. Even if it can't be eaten by people, it can also be used to feed poultry and livestock. It's a pity that so much oil residue has been thrown away.
After hearing this, steward Wang was invigorated and said to Shen Jingli, "madam, the old lady has a piece of land in chenjiacun. There is a pond there. If the oil residue can really feed the fish, why don't you buy some fry and duck fry to raise it?"
The old lady mentioned by Wang Guanshi refers to Mrs. Yang. He has been in the Yang family for more than ten years. He is loyal to the Yang family. Knowing that the old man has no land, he has always been distressed. But the old lady thinks that the land can't grow anything, and the pond can't grow fish, so she doesn't pay any attention to his opinions.
Shen Jingli thought it over and thought that this idea was very good. The land was wasteful. It was better to raise some aquatic products. Fish and shrimp are good things, and ducks and geese can also be raised. Then a roast duck shop can be opened in Beijing.
I'll think it over. "Shen Jingli didn't make a decision. He had to send someone to investigate the market demand. Otherwise, he would be upset if he raised a large number of fish and could not sell them.
In his opinion, as long as Shen Jingli is willing to consider it, it will be half of the success. Shen Jingli looked around the factory again. He was sure that there was no problem before he returned home.
When she got off the carriage, Mammy Jin ran to Shen Jingli and said in a low voice, "madam, someone is coming from the palace.
Is this something to be happy about? Shen Jingli didn't understand these ancient people's ideas. When he saw people coming from the palace, his first reaction was to be upset. After all, he didn't want anyone to disturb his peaceful life.
"Who is it?" When he got down from the pedal stool, Shen Jingli patted the dust on his clothes and asked casually.
Mother Jin frowned when she saw that Shen Jingli didn't care. It was a big deal for someone from the palace. How could the master not care so much about it? If you neglect the dignitaries from the palace, it will be wonderful.
"Ma'am, that's a noble person from the palace. I can't offend you." Mother Jin stepped forward to help Shen Jingli. Her face and eyes were filled with worry.
With such a master who regarded power as a cloud, she was often scared to death.
"Did he say what he was here for?" Well done. What do you want to do if you send someone from the palace? Shen Jingli thought for a moment. He hasn't done any meritorious service recently, and he hasn't offended anyone?
I didn't say that. I didn't listen to him. It seems to have something to do with peanut oil. "
Before his peanut oil came into the market, the news spread to the palace? Shen Jingli had some doubts, but he didn't care.
First he went back to his room and changed his clothes. Then he went to the hall to see the father-in-law from the palace.
"Yes, sir." Mr. Li was drinking tea. As soon as he saw Shen Jingli come out, he immediately stood up, smiling and flattering.
Shen Jingli saw that the wrinkles on his smiling face were falling off. He knew that this was not a bad thing. Otherwise, how could this father-in-law be so enthusiastic about him?
"You're welcome, Mr. Li. Please have a seat." Shen Jingli sat on the throne and ordered Jinyu to add tea to him. "What's the matter with Duke Li coming today?"It's a good thing, a great good thing. " Father Li's voice was sharp and his smile was brilliant. He didn't know what good luck the king of Nanping County had done. He was just a country bumpkin. Once he entered the capital, he was granted the title of prefect. The Empress Dowager's birthday was in the limelight again. Now, this peanut oil has caught the eye of the Empress Dowager and the Emperor Duke Li couldn't stop admiring. "King Jing sent ten jin of peanut oil to empress dowager a few days ago. She tasted it well, so she gave some to empress dowager. The Empress Dowager has no appetite these days, so she can eat the peanut oil fried dishes..."
"Needless to say, it must be a big appetite," Shen Jingli chuckled and had another calculation. If the peanut oil could open the market directly from the royal family, then he would be able to monopolize the market. Even if someone followed suit in the future, he would not be able to steal his popularity.
"What does the Empress Dowager mean?
The Empress Dowager hopes that the county Lord can provide peanut oil to the palace all year round.
This was good for his business, and Shen Jingli naturally would not refuse. After nodding his head, he asked mammy Jin to give Mr. Li a big red envelope.
Mr. Li received the red envelope, naturally happy in his heart. The prince of the county not only did a good business, but also was generous. He did not waste his efforts to come here.
Don't think that he is a father-in-law. He will let anyone who calls to run errands. There is also competition in this. Generally, those rich and generous families always rush for it. Shen Jingli has been praised by the Empress Dowager several times and is a popular figure at present. The father-in-law in the palace doesn't expect to run to him.
"thank you for your kind words in front of the Empress Dowager A few words. " Shen Jingli respectfully sent Mr. Li away.
"Certainly." Father in law Li's small eyes disappeared with a red envelope from Shen Jingli in his hand. He almost couldn't find the north.
After seeing Mr. Li off, Shen Jingli breathed a sigh of relief, went back to have lunch, and then took a nap.
When I woke up, it was already three o'clock in the afternoon. I heard the noise of playing outside. I dressed myself and came out to have a look. It was Yang Ningxin and Yang ningtian playing shuttlecock. Xun'er was sitting on the baby carriage beside him, watching them play and clapping their hands.
Jin Yu came over with a plate of fruit. Seeing that Shen Jingli was awake, she quickly put down the fruit and ordered the servant girl to fetch warm water. Then she went up and said, "madam, why don't you call a maid when you wake up?
"It's no big deal. What are you told to do?" Shen Jingli waved his hand. The servant girl brought water to him. He washed his face with a washcloth and rinsed his mouth. Then he said, "is the master back?"
"Back." Jinyu asked people to carry the basin down and follow Shen Jingli to the pavilion. "Not long after I came back, I was talking to the general in my study."
When talking about Zhan tielan, Jinyu's eyes brightened. Zhan tielan, a legendary figure in the capital, was the only female official in the Dynasty and an idol in Jinyu's mind.
"Is general Zhan coming?" As soon as Shen Jingli sat down, he stood up again.
Yang Ningxin, who was playing, saw him and ran towards him. She hugged his arm and hung him on his body. She said, "sister-in-law, I haven't seen you for several days."
She sniffed, pretended to be sad, and looked at Shen Jingli with her eyes wide, as if she were accusing something.
Yang ningtian also came along, saw her hanging on Shen Jingli and made a face at her. Yang Ningxin snorted and fought back.
"Sister-in-law, I heard that you were in the limelight at the Empress Dowager's birthday party. The Empress Dowager and the emperor praised you, isn't it true?"
In recent days, things about Shen Jingli have been spread all over the world. What he said is like a legendary figure. He can do anything.
"Don't listen to all the nonsense.
"It's not bullshit. I've been so busy in spring that I can sell thousands of copies a day." There are a lot of rich people in the capital city, and there are also many businessmen. Many people come to her to order and sell in the next town. She has made a lot of money recently.
"Not good to buy?
"It's good to make money, but people ask you about it every day, and some people are passing on your life experience. They say that your mother can't give birth to a son for many years, so she goes to the temple to ask Guanyin to give her a son. As a result, seven colored auspicious clouds fell asleep that night and soon became pregnant. That's you who was born. Shen Jingli was stunned and said that you were born with auspicious omen Big ah, on Liu's virtue, can there be colorful auspicious clouds dream? I just laughed my teeth out.
"Yes, I've also heard that you and brother 14 are made by heaven. You were originally rich and rich, but you can be blocked by the bad luck of your original family. So when you marry the fourteenth brother, your life will get better immediately
This is quite in line with the status quo, Yang ningtian or some believe.
Shen Jingli laughed twice, and made no comment on these rumors. "OK, you can play for a while. I'll meet the guests.
Let Nianhua lead them to eat fruit. Shen Jingli takes Jinyu to the study.
