Chapter 915 Making canned food
Chen Feng didn't have to hide this trick from Ye Shishi. Anyway, he also planned to use Ye Shishi's labor force to work for himself. Chen Feng said: "We are going to the sea soon. Maybe it will take several months to come back. When we get to the sea, there is nothing good to eat, and eating fish all day is too monotonous. If our fruits are brought directly to the boat, they will all rot in less than a month. So I came up with a way to seal them into our jar and take them to the boat, which can be kept for one or two years."
There is also such a way? When Chen Feng said this, Ye Shishi was delighted. Sanlang and the others were on the sea. In fact, life was so boring that there was no fresh fruit to eat. If it could be preserved, it would be a good idea.
I really have to study hard.
"Wash the fruits, cut them into pieces, and put them in this jar." Chen Feng said.
Ye Shishi did not resist at all this time, and did it immediately as Chen Feng said.
Holding a kitchen knife in her hand, Ye Shishi hadn't done such a thing for a long time. She cut the fruits and put them into the jar piece by piece.
Wash the fruit, cut it, and then put it in. Ye Shishi made it very seriously. In one stick of incense, the can of apples were cut all the cans.
At this time, Chen Feng was sitting on a chair, eating one or two pieces of fruit cut by Ye Shishi from time to time, and supervising Ye Shishi's work. This time seemed to pass quickly.
One jar, another jar, Ye Shishi packed four jars.
At this time, on the other side, Xiaochan boiled the water.
"Put these four jars onto a large pot and steam them for half an hour." Chen Feng said.
"Your Majesty, won't these fruits be ripe by steaming? This taste..." Ye Shishi asked.
"Shishi, do you know why this fruit turns bad when we get to the sea?" Chen Feng asked back.
Ye Shishi shook her head, how could she know?
"Because there are actually small insects that we cannot see in this fruit. We use boiled water to steam the fruit to kill the insects inside." Chen Feng said.
In fact, it is bacteria, but in this era, if Chen Feng spoke about bacteria, no one would know.
Therefore, Chen Feng used insects instead.
There are bugs? Don’t you eat all the bugs in your stomach when you eat fruits? The prince is really good at joking! Ye Shishi absolutely doesn’t believe it. Of course, although she doesn’t believe it in her heart, she can’t show it in her mouth.
"After steaming, plug it tightly with a wooden plug and then seal it with this wax." Chen Feng said.
Chen Feng said it very simply. All this is done by Ye Shishi, especially when it was steamed, the jar was very hot. In this case, the lid was immediately stuffed and sealed, and it was done at high temperature.
Chen Feng would not feel sorry for Ye Shishi when he burned it and even broke his appearance. This woman was an accomplice of the Japanese pirates and an island woman. She had been acting with her all the time.
Ye Shishi still knows how to protect herself. Moreover, with Xiaochan here, most of the work was rushed to do by Xiaochan.
When it was dark, four cans of canned food that appeared for the first time in the history of the Central Plains were finally ready.
Ye Shishi was sweating profusely. The amount of exercise today was far greater than the previous month or even the amount of labor in a year. Her slender fingers were used to play the pipa in the past, but they were not as good as they are now. They had to carry bamboo baskets, cut fruits and make this can.
Ye Shishi didn't know that this was just the beginning of her miserable life until she went to sea.
Seeing the four cans made by Ye Shishi, Chen Feng praised them vigorously, and then gave new instructions to Ye Shishi that he would make at least one hundred such cans before going to sea.
Moreover, this new method of preserving fruit is a top secret matter and cannot be disclosed, so it can only be done by Ye Shishi and Xiaochan.
Chen Feng instructed that if he succeeded, he would start to make such things in large quantities when he came back this time, and Ye Shishi was the person in charge of his new product.
Since many of Chen Feng's wives and concubines are his business assistants, such as Xue Wanyu and others, who are managing the business for Chen Feng, so Chen Feng said this completely fits the situation.
Ye Shishi was very dissatisfied. Who would like to manage this business for you? One hundred cans, I’m afraid I can’t finish it even if I’m busy from morning to night!
However, the prince's words cannot be denied, and the prince generously did not bother her that night because she needed to make these things overnight.
Ye Shishi's delicate hands finally became rough.
Chen Feng came out of the kitchen in the backyard and sent someone to stare at Ye Shishi. The rest was to check Ye Shishi's progress once a day.
This canned food is indeed a secret, and it will be handed over to my mother to make it in the future.
Although Ye Shishi knew this secret, is there any chance she would spread it? When it was at sea, when all the pirates were killed by themselves, and when the Japanese pirates had become history, what was her ending?
At this time, Chen Feng had not completely killed him, just like Qingqing at the time. If Ye Shishi was willing to turn around, Chen Feng would be willing to give her a chance.
Entering the front yard, Chen Feng met Li Xue in a secret house, this time Minmin sent a female soldier to "protect" Ye Shishi.
"Prince, my subordinates have found out. There is indeed something strange and authentic under the pine tree that leads to the outside of the palace." Li Xue said.
Chen Feng found Ye Shishi talking to the pine tree the day before yesterday. He knew that there was definitely something wrong, but he did not pursue it.
Of course, secretly, Chen Feng immediately sent someone to investigate.
This investigation was indeed confirmed.
"In the past, Ye Shishi liked to play the pipa under the pine tree, which was one of the only areas where she could move. It seems that this pine tree has been around for a long time as a channel for her to contact the outside world. However, in the past, we were all monitoring each other, so it was absolutely impossible for Ye Shishi to talk to the people inside the pine tree. At most, she would just pick up a note quietly." Li Xue said.
Li Xue felt a little guilty when she said this. After all, she was so cautious and she still had such a big flaw. If Ye Shishi escaped, how could she explain to the prince?
Li Xue naturally knew the prince's attitude towards Ye Shishi, so she called Ye Shishi by name, but she didn't call her wife.
"This tunnel will be kept for the next few days and monitored closely. There will be no one in that tunnel at any time. Ye Shishi must be in contact with people outside regularly. It is best to take the letters she contacts first, so that we can learn about their actions in advance and then put them back. When I go to sea and walk for three days, I will completely destroy the tunnel, and at the same time, I will capture the Japanese pirates in Yangzhou together." Chen Feng said.
Since we discovered this strangeness, it is also beneficial. Ye Shishi contacted the outside world and determined where to take action and who would participate. This information is also very important to Chen Feng. This time, we took advantage of this authenticity and took it to take a look first.
After leaving, this tunnel will be useless. However, if it is destroyed immediately, it may be discovered by the Japanese pirates. Therefore, in three days, the Japanese pirates will definitely be ready to rob the Chen family's merchant ship. At this time, the Japanese pirates in Yangzhou City will be arrested.
Although Ye Shishi has left, this authentic person will definitely stay. No matter the orthodox Japanese pirates or the purchased Han people, they cannot be let go!
"Yes, Prince." Li Xue said.
Although this time, although it was said that there were no ships guarding the Taihu Navy, in fact, all warships were gathering secretly to prepare to encircle and suppress the Japanese pirates.
This time, Chen Feng used the Chen family's merchant ship as bait to hang the big fish of the Japanese pirates. Chen Feng spent a lot of money and did not believe that the Japanese pirates would not take the bait.
After explaining this, Chen Feng was relaxed and left the room, it was completely dark.
Having left a task for Ye Shishi, he could no longer to torture Ye Shishi. Chen Feng suddenly felt that he had nothing to do in Yangzhou City these days.
Originally, I was looking forward to seeing Wanyu, but when Chen Feng returned to Yangzhou, Wanyu went to Hangzhou because of business matters. This trip would not be back in more than ten days. By then, Chen Feng had already left on a boat.
Chen Feng felt very sorry. Xue Wanyu had made a lot of contributions to Chen Feng. Now, he is devoted to managing Chen Feng's business and the Chen family's business empire has their contributions.
Chen Feng walked back and forth. This courtyard carries many of Chen Feng's memories. At the time, when he was here, he was just a small illegitimate son, and was bullied. But now, he has become an important figure in the Ming Dynasty.
Chen Feng looked at the corridors, screens, rockery, flower ponds, everything was so familiar and so strange.
The big red lanterns were fluttering with the cold wind.
"Prince, you are so leisurely." Just as Chen Feng was walking casually, he heard a crisp sound coming from behind him.
Chen Feng's footsteps suddenly stopped. He had heard the footsteps for a long time. Originally, he thought he was an ordinary servant, but this sound evoked many memories of him.
Looking back, a capable woman appeared in front of him. A white coat wrapped her whole body in it. But the coat fits very well, showing the delicate curves of her body. The skin on her face was delicate and smooth, although it looked a little dark, and it showed a healthy color. On her face, her smile was stirring at this time. "Yu'er, why are you here?" Chen Feng couldn't help but ask.
