Chapter 160 Another money-making tool(1/2)
This transaction is completely different from the last transaction, because in the last transaction, the people of the China Alliance did not get anything substantial. They just knew that they had been dating with the royal family and felt a little excited!
In this transaction, Li Qi brought them a lot of supplies.
This greatly boosted morale and also led the Huaxia Alliance to embark on the road of rapid development, and this path was formulated by Li Qi personally for the Huaxia Alliance.
Of course, Li Qi had to take advantage of this wave of morale to complete the first step in building the China Alliance.
In the kitchen!
"Don't let it go like this, go up a little more, so that it can illuminate more places. When you do things, you should also use your brain more. I can't stare at you every day."
Li Qi stood in the kitchen and directed.
I saw a few young men sweating profusely, carefully fixing the round and shiny stones in a wooden basin and then hanging them on the roof.
The chief personally supervised them, and they were still very stressed. Of course, this is a good thing. Even if Li Qi was furious in the past, they would not feel any pressure.
"Chief, these stones can really be seen by us at night."
An elementary apprentice asked Li Qi excitedly.
Li Qi smiled and said, "Can you be able to speak with facts. When we wait until night, we will find out!"
The one hanging on it is actually fluorite. In dark places, the fluorite will shine. However, in Kingdom fluorite is usually used in some special occasions, and the royal family still prefers firelight because the firelight makes them feel more natural, just like their houses, you always have to turn a corner when you get started.
But Li Qi doesn't like to place a torch next to him every day. He cherishes his hair and skin, so he bought some fluorite, but not a lot, because this fluorite is not cheap either. First of all, this fluorite needs to be polished. After polishing, the fluorite will shine and will slowly weather, and the light will become weaker and weaker. It is not that it can be used all the time.
Since there are not many, of course it has to be used on the blade, so the first place to hang fluorite is the kitchen.
Now the kitchen is the heart of the China Alliance, and it is the kitchen that promotes everything development. The busiest one is also the kitchen, followed by the Elders' Home. The former Elders' Home was under the big tree in front of the cave. Because the light inside the cave was too dark and it was inconvenient for work. Now with fluorite, Li Qi has made a small hole for the elders to work at night. Now there are a lot of things now, and sometimes they have to work at night, and they still have to work outside during the day. They don’t like to stay in the cave during the day.
The night comes very quickly, so the kitchen lights up almost instantly.
A burst of cheers suddenly rang out.
"It's bright! It's bright! It's really bright!"
The old general trembled with excitement.
"Wow! So beautiful!"
He raised his little head, and his big eyes looked brighter under the light of fluorite, like two black gems. He turned slightly, and habitually held Li Qi's thighs with one hand, raised his head and asked, "Li Qi, are these really traded with wine?"
Li Qi touched his little head and nodded with a smile.
All of this also changes the way humans think.
In the past, no matter how hard they tried, their income was very limited. They didn’t even think that hard work had anything to do with harvest. If you didn’t find prey, no matter how hard you worked, you wouldn’t have any harvest. They didn’t know how to plant it at the beginning.
Now they have seen so many treasures and gradually understood this truth. As long as they work hard, they can get a lot. So under the stimulation of materials, the entire China Alliance is rushing upwards, and everyone is full of energy.
......
"Qiaoma! Do you think it looks so good?"
Han stood in front of a large mirror under a small shed, fiddling with her braids, and asked Qiaoma next to her.
Qiaoma said very perfunctorily: "It looks good, it looks good. We have to go to work quickly. Now we have a lot to do."
As she said, she pulled Han towards the textile area. Of course, she also liked to buy it, but she was brought by Li Qi and had a strong sense of responsibility.
He shook his eyes and said, "But the chief said that appearance is also very important."
"Yes, yes, go quickly." Qiaoma said in a daze.
Li Qi bought a large mirror and hung it right in front of the residential area. He also asked them to look in the mirror every day to get up and organize their hair and clothes. Although they are definitely dirty after finishing their work, Li Qi hopes to develop their awareness of love for beauty.
This is very important. In the future, the Huaxia Alliance will often communicate with other races. It is originally a third-class race, and it is not clumsy and dirty. Then we cannot blame other races for discriminating against humanity. Moreover, Luolong has not come back yet, and Li Qi's expansion plan is still continuing. Li Qi also hopes that those tribes who come to join will immediately feel that they are high-end, elegant and upscale, and they are convinced to join the Huaxia Alliance, not just because of fear.
The textile department of Qiaoma Tube has become one of the busiest departments today. They not only have to sew the flag of the Huaxia Alliance, but also everyone's clothes, but their efficiency has also been greatly improved, because the 未分类 has designed a hand-crank sewing machine based on Li Qi's design drawings, which is very good at, because the parts of the sewing machine are very small.
There is another department that is as busy as the textile department. This department is the newly established planning department. Li Qi just plans to ask Li Li Bun and others to build factories, but Li Qi still plans to build the houses they live in. Not only because of money, but also because Li Qi does not want races to enter the areas where humans live.
At the beginning, he just told them how to build an extremely simple thatched hut, because there were no tools and insufficient manpower at that time, so the thatched hut was just allowed to move it out of the hole.
Now Li Qi has purchased a lot of tools, including planes, saws, and other construction tools, and the population has increased tenfold. More importantly, large-scale construction can also promote the integration of various tribes, which means that people can move their mouths, rather than staying in one place every day. If they do not communicate with each other, it will be unfavorable to unity. Everyone will soon become familiar with each other when working together.
As for the structure of the house, Li Qi chose the wood structure he was more familiar with, that is, the mortise and tenon structure. These are the knowledge he learned in the Northern Song Dynasty. As for reinforced concrete, he has detailed information and will definitely make it. He really thinks that the steam engine has come out. After the industrialization is perfected, it is necessary to build a solid house to be more efficient.
Li Qi himself is mainly responsible for the kitchen!
"Do you know what this is?"
Li Qi handed a small bottle to Hanying.
Han Ying did not reach out to take it, Gao Ting's nose slightly shaking, and said, "It's Gan Ting's name!"
It is worthy of being a demon, and his nose is really spiritual. Li Qi shrugged his hand and asked again: "Have you tasted it?"
Han Ying said simply and bluntly: "It's very bitter, I don't like it."
"It's not necessarily!" Li Qi smiled slightly.
Han Ying handed over two puzzled gazes.
Li Qi poured the sweet powder inside on a piece of silk as big as a palm, tied it up with a rattan rope, put it in a jade cup, and then poured in hot water.
Han Ying said: "It is said that only the Great Wilderness clan likes to drink this way, but my demon clan doesn't like it."
"Not necessarily, maybe you will fall in love with it soon." Li Qi said confidently.
"I won't like it."
Han Ying really doesn't have the habit of giving Li Qi face.
Li Qi laughed and said, "Then let's wait and see!"
Han Ying thinks this person is crazy. I like it or not. It’s not your final word. It’s really a blind eye to be a bodyguard for such a person.
After a while, Li Qi took out the small silk bag and handed the jade cup to Hanying.
This jade cup with coffee is really awkward no matter how you look at it.
Han Ying really didn't believe in this evil, so she took the cup.
Li Qi said: "Drink slowly and be careful of hot!"
Hanying glanced at Li Qi lightly, then took a sip, shook her head and said, "The taste is indeed a little different, but I still don't like it."
"Add to the conclusion later!"
Li Qi picked up a milky white, square-shaped crystal from a jar and threw it into the cup. After stirring it gently, he said, "Try it again."
Hanying took a sip, and suddenly she frowned, a look of surprise flashed through her colorful pupils, and she took another sip.
Li Qi smiled and said, "You won't lie."
Han Ying's cold and beautiful face was a little flushed, which made her look even more sexy and charming, and said, "I like this... this taste more." As she said, she asked curiously, "Why is there a milky smell after you add sugar?"
"Because it is my special milk candy, of course it will have a milky flavor, but I don't like adding sugar." Li Qi smiled slightly. This milk candy is made of deer milk. Oh, it is the milk of deer beasts, not the amazing Sanlu milk.
He brewed himself another cup, took a sip, and savored it carefully. The moment he just put it in, it felt like black coffee, the taste was very mellow, but it was more delicate than black coffee, as if it was mixed with chocolate, but only a touch of chocolate, the two flavors were just right, which is why with milk candy, the taste immediately became very mellow, and even Hanying liked it very much, because milk candy can be perfectly matched with coffee and chocolate. I secretly praised it in my heart, the best, this sweet ingredient is really a top ingredient, which can be made into chocolate after drying, but if roasted, the taste of coffee will become very strong.
His previous plan was to focus on food, because food could be sold throughout the continent and would not have direct conflicts with the royal family, because the food produced by Li Qi was not in the kingdom, and the kingdom had only some raw materials, which could make a lot of money. As for the dishes, they were limited and could only be placed in the guild halls. If the guild halls were opened one by one, the speed would be too slow and would have direct conflicts with the royal family, which was not in line with Li Qi's interests. Therefore, Li Qi was willing to cooperate with the guild halls.
Han Ying couldn't help but take another sip.
Li Qi said, "Do you feel like you more and more?"
Han Ying looked at Li Qi's arrogant look and felt a little unhappy, but she really didn't have the habit of lying and nodded reluctantly.
......
Under the big tree, the old general was leading the elders to revise the roster. Although they were all white-haired, they not only did not feel tired at all, but they felt very excited. They wrote quickly on the paper with their brushes, and couldn't stop at all. Every time they finished writing one, they had to smell the fragrance of the paper and ink, and a group of addicts gathered together.
"Thank you all, elders, have some rest!"
Li Qi walked over with a pot.
"Great Chief!"
Lao Tong quickly got up, and the other elders followed suit and stood up. As soon as Taba left, Lao Tong immediately took office. Therefore, the other elders were exploring the tricks inside and gradually discovered why Lao Tong was deeply trusted by the chief.
"Sit down!"
Li Qi was very leader-like and then smiled and said, "Try the coffee I just invented."
He still tries to name food in human language as much as possible. Other races use transliteration. When various races hear it, they know that humans invent it, and it is also a propaganda.
The two apprentices behind him immediately came forward with cups.
Li Qi poured them a cup alone.
When the elders saw that the coffee was black, they suddenly felt a bad feeling, and they still liked brightly colored juices.
Li Qi said: "Try it and see!"
The old general looked at Li Qi and said, "There was no choice but to disobey the command of the chief, and he picked up a cup with a smile on his face.
After seeing this, the other elders quickly picked up a cup.
Li Qi also held a cup and said, "You have to taste this coffee slowly before you can taste the fragrance."
He demonstrated it himself.
