The daily life of a talented young husband who travels through a book and suffers from cruelty

Chapter 173 Citron
Li Xiaodao silently put the herbal tea he brought on the table, then bowed to Boss Wan and Kelina respectively.

"Miss Li is here, sit down quickly," Wan Yushan pointed to the seat beside him.The beautiful woman who made the tea understood, poured another cup of tea and put it on the spot.

Li Xiaodao nodded and sat down.

Kelina looked depressed, but still greeted Li Xiaodao with a smile: 【"Good afternoon, Ms. Li."】

"Kelina doesn't seem very happy today. A ship in their fleet should have docked a long time ago, but it hasn't arrived yet. I can't tell him clearly. I can only hear that something seems to be wrong. Help me Ask him." Wan Yushan looked at Kelina again, and then said to Li Xiaodao.

Li Xiaodao communicated with Kelina in ancient Western language, and realized that their ship may encounter a hurricane at sea and detour a long way, and they don't know when they will arrive.

She translated it to Wan Yushan, and Wan Yushan sighed: "So that's the case. There is nothing to do in the event of a hurricane. As long as the people and the boat are safe, it doesn't matter if it is late."

Li Xiaodao nodded, and then translated to Ke Lina.

Kelina shook his head and sighed: ["Our captain and sailors are veterans. I don't worry about whether they can avoid the hurricane, but whether they have enough food; , the crew will get a fever spot disease, many people will die, I am very worried about them."]

After hearing this, Li Xiaodao understood that what Kelina said would cause a fever and spots on his body after a long time at sea should be sepsis.

She thought, if the progress of this world is similar to the world before time travel, then there are at least a few hundred years before James Lind discovered that sepsis was related to fresh fruit in 1753.

However, the provincial capital is about a month away from the departure point of the Kelina fleet. Even if the detour adds half a month, as long as there is enough food and water on board, the crew will suffer from lack of fresh fruit. Sepsis is less likely.

Li Xiaodao comforted Kelina and said: ["Don't worry, sailors usually get this disease only on long-distance ships without supplies for a long time, and the journey of dozens of days should not be. As long as they can avoid the hurricane, the food If you have enough water and water, you should be fine, just wait for the news."]

Kelina smiled wryly and raised her eyebrows: 【"How does Ms. Li know that she won't...I'm still very worried."】

Li Xiaodao was stunned by this question, she couldn't explain that this is something that everyone in the 21st century knows.

She cleared her throat and made up: ["Because my family is from a family of Chinese medicine... My father told me! And there is a good way to solve this disease."]

Kelina was surprised and said: 【"What way? Please tell me quickly!"】

Li Xiaodao thought for a while, when Xianggong came home to make lemon tea for him, he called lemons "citron". There are still some differences, and it may be that the modern varieties of lemons are hybrids of citrons and other fruits.

But what about vitamins?

Li Xiaodao replied: ["There is a kind of fruit called citron, which is easy to preserve and contains a lot of... a healthy thing. If this fruit is often prepared on board, the crew can avoid this kind of scurvy with a high probability. .”]

Kelina wanted to see what kind of fruit it was, so Li Xiaodao explained it to Wan Yushan.

"I didn't know Miss Li had such abilities." Wan Yushan smiled and told the woman pouring tea, "Go find someone and bring some citrons."

The woman owed her body and went out.

"So as long as their ship can escape the typhoon and return to the route smoothly, it shouldn't be a big problem," Li Xiaodao said to Wan Yushan.

Wan Yushan breathed a sigh of relief, but it was hard to say whether he could escape the hurricane.

"Tell Kelina, I can give Citron some when the other ships in their fleet go back this time, and bring them on board for preparation, so that he won't worry about the future," Wan Yushan said to Li Xiaodao.

Li Xiaodao nodded and translated the original words to Kelina.

Kelina smiled and said: ["This is great! I'll let everyone go back and tell everyone that this fruit can cure bad blood, and prepare it on the voyage and return! I will also publicize it to other fleets, and let everyone come to Wanwan Boss buys citron!"]

Li Xiaodao hurriedly said: ["Wait, wait...don't you verify it? You believe everything I say?"]

Kelina smiled and shook her head: ["Ms. Li never lies, I believe in you, and to be honest, we have no other way, it's better to have a way than nothing."]

Never lie... Li Xiaodao's forehead was a little sweaty, it must be because of the heat.

Li Xiaodao smiled and said: ["That's true. In addition, this fruit will be very delicious when cooked, and it can also beautify the skin and make the body healthy. It is a very good thing."]

While waiting, Li Xiaodao let Kelina and Wan Yushan taste the herbal tea he brought.

"This herbal tea is a recipe developed by Xianggong, because I don't like herbal tea taste bad, he tried for a long time to make it like this, I brought some today for you to try", Li Xiaodao put the bamboo tubes one by one in Wanyu Mountain and Kelina in front of.

Seeing the herbal tea Wan Yushan was pleasantly surprised, Kelina was full of bitterness.

"Okay! I'll try it!"

【"No! Thank you! I don't need it!"】

The two said at the same time.

Li Xiaodao laughed loudly and said: "Don't be afraid, it's really not bitter, very sweet, and has no strange smell, just try it."]

After they both tasted it, they were full of praise.

After chatting for a while, someone outside took three citrons and put them on the table.

As soon as Kelina saw this fruit, he picked it up and smelled it, and said, "I've seen this in my hometown, and they were raised for ornamental purposes, or sprinkled on chicken. It's very sour, so I can't eat it directly." 】

Li Xiaodao nodded: ["It's really sour, because the healthy things contained in it are very sour. It can be used to make drinks, or squeeze the juice on food. Keeping it on board can greatly reduce the risk of infection. The probability of hyperemia.”]

Then Li Xiaodao explained that citrons should not be boiled in boiling water, and should be made with cold boiled water. Adding some sugar is sweet and sour, so it tastes delicious. Ke Lina took some citrons and said that he would try it when he went back. .

After communicating with Boss Wan, Kelina bid farewell to Wan Yushan.

After Kelina left, Li Xiaodao was not in a hurry to get off work, she whispered to Wan Yushan: "Boss Wan, to be honest, I have some private matters to ask you today."

Wan Yushan waved his hand to let the person serving tea and water go out first, closed the door, and then said to Li Xiaodao: "What's wrong with Miss Li? But it's okay, as long as I can help, I will help you."

Li Xiaodao said to Wan Yushan: "There are two months left before the township examination. I want to find some skilled people to escort him on the way to and from the Gongyuan during the exam. I don't know where such skilled people are. Can it be hired? And if you still want to find someone to take care of his safety in the Gongyuan, is there any way to do this? I met Gao Zongbing by chance before, and I wanted to ask him for help, but I wrote to him, the messenger But he came back and said that Mr. Gao had just left Anzhou and went to another place." Li Xiaodao sighed and said, "I really have no choice. Boss Wan, please show me the way!"
