Xiao Lang asked anxiously, “How is it? Sister, is it good?”
The cream was made by him from the green and yellow cheese, so it was naturally related to its taste.
Jian Qingqing also dug out some for him to eat and asked expectantly, “How is it? Is it good?”
Xiao Lang swallowed it in one gulp. The cream was extremely soft and melted in his mouth. He exclaimed, “Sister, it’s really good! I want to eat more!”
Jian Qingqing put the cream away and pushed him out. She said casually, “We’ll eat later. Let’s go eat first.”
Xiao Lang could only follow her out in disappointment.
Mother Jian asked curiously, “Big sister, have you made the food?”
Jian Qingqing smiled and nodded. “It’s almost done. You can eat it later. I guarantee that it’s more delicious than anything you’ve ever eaten before!”

Xiao Lang shouted, “Mother! That cream is delicious! I made it!”
Mother Jian smiled and said, “Then I’ll have to look forward to it.”
Everyone ate the meal extremely quickly, especially the three little ones. They were all fighting to finish the meal quickly before going to eat the double-skin cream and cream.
Especially Xiao Hu and Xiao Ye. They had never eaten anything before. When they heard that the cream was especially delicious from Xiao Lang, so they could not wait to eat the cream.
Jian Qingqing had not even eaten half a bowl of rice when they were already done eating. They asked expectantly, “Sister, can we eat the double-skin milk and cream now?”
Jian Qingqing gave an evil smile and said, “No, we can only eat it after Father, Mother, and Grandfather finish eating.”
The three of them were instantly disappointed. They looked at Old Man Jian, Father Jian, and Mother Jian one after another and urged, “Grandpa, hurry up and finish eating!”
The three of them were also looking forward to Jian Qingqing’s delicious food, so they could not help but speed up their eating.
After they finished eating, Jian Qingqing went to fetch cream and double-skin milk. The double-skin milk was already cold and condensed into a thick double-skin milk.

She scooped a bowl for each of them and said, “Everyone, try it. It’s guaranteed to be delicious!”
It was the first time that Old Man Jian and the others had seen such a white and tender thing. They had not eaten it yet, so they felt that it tasted good at first glance.
Therefore, they could not wait to scoop a spoonful into their mouths.
Instantly, their eyes lit up. The three young ones were all at the age of delicious, so they did not have time to say anything. They immediately wolfed down a bowl of double-skin milk quickly.
After eating, the three of them asked expectantly, “Sister, can we eat it again?”
Jian Qingqing looked at their slightly protruding bellies and asked, “Can you still eat it?”
The three of them nodded crazily. Jian Qingqing waved her hand and said, “Eat!”
Unlike the three children who wolfed down their food, the three of them chewed and swallowed slowly, savoring the food carefully.
Old Man Jian said, “I really didn’t expect the food made from milk to be so delicious! Why didn’t anyone notice it before? It’s fragrant and sweet. Even an old man like me with missing teeth can eat it.”
Father Jian did not know what to say to praise her. He just kept saying, “Not bad! Delicious, delicious! Our Big Sister knows how to cook everything! and she can cook everything delicious!” Nôv(el)B\\jnn
Mother Jian was very careful with her compliments. From the taste to the texture, she said, “It’s very fragrant and sweet. The taste is smooth and delicate. If I can eat a bowl of it on a hot day, my mood will be much better!”
Jian Qingqing smiled. As expected, no woman could escape from such a delicious thing as double-skin milk! If Mother Jian had tasted milk tea, she probably would not be able to quit it for the rest of her life.
She suddenly had an idea. “Mother, why don’t you open a shop and sell desserts?”

“Ah?” Mother Jian looked at Jian Qingqing in a daze, not realizing what was going on.
Jian Qingqing repeated, “Mother, you can open a shop and sell double-skin milk, milk tea, cakes, and desserts. It will definitely sell well!”
Mother Jian finally realized what was going on. She quickly waved her hand and said in a panic, “No! How can I make such a thing? It would be bad if I lose money!”
Jian Qingqing did not try to persuade her anymore. Instead, she started to talk about other things.
!!
“Father, Mother, Grandfather, try this cream again.”

The three of them looked at the cream. After taking a bite, they all praised it. They really could not imagine how that ordinary milk could make something so edible, it also looked very different from the water-like milk.
“How is it? Isn’t it delicious?”
Everyone said in unison, “Delicious!”
Jian Qingqing asked Mother Jian, “Mother, what do you think?”
Mother Jian smiled gently and said, “I can’t tell what it feels like. I just feel that it’s very sweet and soft to eat. I’ve never tasted something like this before.”
Jian Qingqing smiled and asked, “Then do you think you can sell it this time? I’ll teach you how to make it. It’s very simple. I guarantee that you can learn it!”
Mother Jian was still a little hesitant. “Big Sister, why don’t you open the shop? I’ll help you do it. I can’t do it alone.”
Jian Qingqing felt that Mother Jian was always around her family and rarely went out to interact with others. She already lacked confidence and did not dare to show her face in public to do business. This was also a common trait of women in this era.

She encouraged, “Mother, it’s alright. Don’t worry and do it boldly. Your daughter has earned so much money that she can’t spend it all. She’s not afraid that you’ll lose money. If you lose money, I’ll earn it back. It doesn’t matter. Besides, I think you’re great! You’re careful and patient. You’ll definitely do better than me. When that time comes, you’ll earn money to support me!”
Mother Jian chuckled, she said angrily, “How can there be money that can’t be spent? I’ll think about it again. I’ll tell you when I think about it. Also, what if I open a shop and work at home? Are you counting on your father? He can’t even see life in his eyes.”
This was a problem. Jian Qingqing glared at Father Jian and said, “Father, did you hear that? Mother said you don’t work! It’s not that I’m scolding you, but you’re mother’s husband. Husband and wife are one. Why do you only let mother work?”
Father Jian said aggrievedly, “I didn’t just let her work. I helped her too, okay? I even burned the fire when she cooked.”
“You only know how to start the fire. The ground is so dirty and you didn’t even help when the broom fell.”
“How is the ground dirty? It’s clean.”
Jian Qingqing glared at him and said, “Father, what’s the duty of a husband?”
It was the first time Jian Dalang heard this. He asked in confusion, “What are they?”
Jian Qingqing brought out the ‘Three follows and four virtues’ that were used to train her boyfriend in modern times. She said, “Three follows mean that the husband has to follow the wife’s orders when she goes out, when she’s angry, and when she says you’re wrong. The four virtues mean that the husband has to wait for the wife to dress up, and he has to be willing to spend money on her, endure her temper, and remember her birthday. Do you remember it?” n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
Being ridiculed so blatantly by her daughter, Mother Jian gave her a slap in the face. “What nonsense are you spouting? A lady is not shy at all, stop talking.”
Jian Qingqing retorted, “What nonsense am I spouting? It’s all the truth! It’s all in the books. Not only are there three followers and four virtues of men, but there are also three followers and four virtues of women. If you don’t believe me, I’ll show you!”

Mother Jian had never read a book before. She smiled and patted her daughter, saying, “I don’t know how to read. How would I know what’s written on it?” n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
However, when she heard that it was written in a book, she believed it 70-80% . She felt a little embarrassed. Why was everything written in this book? Those hot words sounded a little embarrassing.
However, the three kids had read books before. They were a little puzzled and asked, “Is that so?”
Why hadn’t they heard of it before? They had only heard of the three follows and four virtues of women.
Jian Qingqing glared at them and said with certainty, “Of course it’s true! You guys haven’t learned it yet. You have to do the same in the future. Otherwise, you won’t be able to get a wife.”
The three of them said in unison, “Got it, Sister.”
They did not doubt her and trusted Jian Qingqing’s words.

Jian Qingqing nodded with satisfaction and announced, “This will be our family’s rules from now on. Everyone has to abide by it. If you don’t, you won’t be a part of our family anymore. Let’s start with Father. Grandfather, what do you think?”
Old Man Jian nodded happily. “This relationship is good. The men of our Jian family have to listen to the wife’s words. Only then can we get along well.”
When Old Man Jian was young, his relationship with Grandma Jian was very good. He listened to her in everything and would rather not eat to feed Grandma Jian. It was a pity that he left early. When he thought of his wife, he felt a little sad.
The relationship between brother Jian and mother Jian was also very good. He nodded foolishly. “I understand.”
Jian Qingqing nodded in satisfaction and said, “So in the future, you can not refute what Mother says. Also, you have to help Mother do whatever she does every day.”
Father Jian still smiled foolishly and looked at Mother Jian. “You can do whatever you want to do. In the future, I will be around when it comes to family matters. If I don’t understand, you can teach me. I will do it.”
Mother Jian looked at Jian Dalang affectionately and lowered her head shyly. Her voice was like fine lines as she said, “Mhmm.”
The matter was resolved proudly, Jian Qingqing said cheerfully, “Alright, Mother, follow me. I will teach you how to make double-skin milk and cream, as well as all kinds of delicious things. I guarantee that you will be able to learn it very quickly. You will earn a lot of money. You can buy whatever you want and pay for it yourself!”

Thinking of that scene, Mother Jian also yearned it. She said expectantly, “Can I really learn it?”
“You’ll know when you learn from me!”
Jian Qingqing used the remaining bucket of milk to teach Mother Jian how to make double-skin milk and cream. In a few days, she planned to teach her how to make bread, cakes, cakes, tarts, and various kinds of milk tea. When that time came, she would open a dessert shop. However, there might not be enough milk. She thought about finding a few cows that could bear milk to raise.
This time, Old Man Jian, Xiao Hu, and the others were all standing around the stove to watch Jian Qingqing make cream. When they saw that she could make soft cream just by beating it, everyone cried out in surprise.
This time, it was Xiao Lang who was doing it. Seeing that so many people were staring at him, he smiled proudly. “I’m awesome, right?”
Old Man Jian laughed, “Good, good!”
Xiao Hu was not convinced. He felt that he was older than Xiao Lang and definitely better than him, so he said, “Sister, I’ll do it too. I’m sure I can do it well too!”
Jian Qingqing glanced at him and divided the other cheese into three portions for Jian Dalang, Mother Jian, and Xiao Hu to beat.
“Mother, you try it too, but I think it’s more tiring to beat the cream. If you don’t want to beat it yourself, you can ask someone to do it.”
Mother Jian looked at her with a reproachful look. “You have a lot of money, don’t you? What’s so difficult about beating the cream? Is it more tiring than farming?”
Jian Qingqing rubbed her head cheerfully. That was true. She knew that farming was tiring. Although Mother Jian looked delicate and weak, she could carry more than 100 kilograms of rice. She had already trained her strength to do farm work, it should be easy to beat cream.

Beating cream was easy for Father Jian and Mother Jian, but Xiao Hu was getting more and more tired.
After a while, his hands started to ache.
Seeing this, Xiao Lang laughed at him, “Hahahaha, didn’t you say you’re better than me? Why are you so useless? hahaha!”
Being laughed at by his younger brother, who was a few years younger than him, Xiao Hu said angrily, “I’m definitely better than you! It’s just that I haven’t used my strength yet!”
!!
As he said that, he beat the cream crazily, and his chopsticks quickly hit the wall of the bowl, making a cracking sound.
Xiao Lang was not willing to be outdone. One beat faster than the other, and the whole family looked at them happily.
The cream was quickly finished. Jian Qingqing found two more eggs, took out the yolk, and let them hold the egg white and beat it like cream.

Everyone was puzzled. could the egg white also be beaten like that?
Jian Qingqing just smiled. “You’ll know after you beat it.”
Mother Jian and the others were skeptical. They used chopsticks to beat the egg white like before.
After a while, the egg white turned into sticky bubbles. Mother Jian asked, “Big sister, is this okay?”
Jian Qingqing shook her head and said, “Don’t stop. We have to continue beating.”
Mother Jian obediently continued beating. Gradually, the sticky bubbles turned into a white gelatinous liquid. If they continued beating, they would turn into a cream-like paste. Jian Qingqing saw that she could already stand her chopsticks on the top, so she told them to stop.
This time, Old Man Jian and the others were even more shocked than when they saw the cream. They had never drunk milk before, but they often ate eggs, they had never found that beating them like this could turn them into another form.
Seeing that they were so shocked that their mouths could fit eggs, Jian Qingqing said, “It’s nothing, Grandpa. I’ll make you another delicious thing!”
She beat the yolk, then put in the flour and stirred it evenly. Then, she mixed the beaten egg white into it. She poured it all into a wooden basin, and put it into the oven to bake.

She had built the oven when she used it to make roast duck. Later, when she opened a shop in the county town, she built another one in the county town. The one at home had not been used for a long time, she had thought that she would use it to bake cookies and desserts, but she did not have the time to do it. Now, she could use it to bake the cake.
She heated the oven and put out the fire. Then, she put the cake in, covered the lid, and used the remaining heat of the oven to bake the cake.
Jian Qingqing waited for about 25 minutes, and when she saw that it was almost time, she took the cake out. At this time, the surface of the cake had turned golden, and it was crisp and soft, emitting a faint fragrance.
Xiao Hu and the others let out a ‘wow’ sound one after another.
Jian Qingqing spread all the cream on it, and in a short while, a simple cake was ready.
She cut the cake into small pieces and gave them to her family to eat.
After the family ate the cake, their eyes lit up. The cream was too greasy, and it matched the cake perfectly.
“Big Sister, how did your brain grow? You can always find these strange methods, and they’re all quite delicious!”
Jian Qingqing giggled and said, “It’s all from my parents! Eat more if it’s delicious!”
Although the family had just had dinner and had eaten double-skin milk and a bowl of cream, they still could not refuse this fragrant and soft cake. Everyone ate a big piece.
Father Jian said with some regret, “It’s delicious, but it’s a little expensive. Those eggs, sugar, and flour are so expensive, so we can’t eat them often. If we sell them, no one will buy them, right?” n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Hearing Father Jian’s words, Mother Jian was also a little shaken. “Yes, Big Sister, wouldn’t it be a waste if we can’t sell them? They can’t be eaten as rice, so not many people will buy them, right?”

Jian Qingqing smiled and said, “That won’t be the case, Mother. We sell it to rich people, to those old country gentlemen’s houses. Therefore, by setting the price higher, not only will we not lose money, but we will also earn quite a bit.”
Mother Jian was still a little doubtful. “But the old country gentlemen’s houses all have a cook who specializes in making pastries, so why would they buy our food?”
“That’s why we need to advertise. Those country gentlemen and ladies like to eat in big restaurants. We can sell the pastries to those restaurants. After the old men and ladies eat them, they will feel that they are delicious. We will say that these pastries and desserts are sold in our shop, and they will definitely buy them.”
Although Mother Jian did not know what advertising was, she felt that it was a good idea. She said, “Big Sister is really smart! Then I will do as you say, okay?”

Jian Qingqing nodded. “There’s no rush. You should learn how to do it first. After you learn it well, I’ll give you money to buy a shop and open a shop.”
“Ah?” Mother Jian looked at her in a daze. “You can buy the shop. I won’t buy it. If you don’t buy it well, wouldn’t it be a waste of money?”
Jian Qingqing encouraged her, “Mother, you have to believe in yourself! You’re great! You haven’t done it yet, so don’t expect such bad results. If the shop does well, and the opening is very smooth, and you earn a lot of money, then you’ll be able to earn your own money in the future! You’ll be the only aunt in the village that earns her own money! This is much better than those old masters’ wives!”
Mother Jian was moved by her daughter’s words. She really wanted to earn money on her own, but she did not dare to go.
Father Jian said from the side, “Darling, you can do it! I’ll support you! When the time comes, I’ll go buy it for you!”
Father Jian was also tempted. Although his daughter had given them a lot of money every month after earning money, he had yet to earn big money himself. He rarely went out to buy things in the village every day.

Jian Qingqing glanced at her father and said, “Father, I asked Mother to do this. What are you doing here? If you want to buy a shop, you can do it yourself.”
“Oh,” said Jian Dalang, a little upset. He was a little bitter and jealous. He felt that his daughter was closer to her mother than to him.
Jian Qingqing did not know what her father was thinking, at this moment, she kept encouraging her mother, “Mother, you can go and try! If you win, it’s on you. If you lose, it’s on me. Moreover, I won’t let you do it alone. I will also help you by the side.”
Old Man Jian also said in a deep voice, “Mother Jian, you can go and do it. You don’t have to worry about things at home. I can still do it.”
Xiao Hu and Xiao Lang also advised, “Mother, just go and open a shop! When you open a shop, won’t we be able to eat whatever we want? Sister is too busy. If we wait for her to cook, we’ll have to wait for a long time.” n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Mother Jian hit the two of them. “Why are you both thinking about eating? Even if I open a shop, I won’t let you guys eat. It’s used to earn money. How much money will we lose if you guys eat everything?”
However, Mother Jian was getting more and more tempted by her words. She looked at Jian Qingqing’s sincere gaze, gritted her teeth, and replied, “Alright! I’ll open a shop!”
She also wanted to earn money like her daughter. This year, her daughter had been earning money for them to spend, but they had never done anything for her. They owed her too much. When she could earn money, her daughter would be able to relax a little.
Jian Qingqing said happily, “Sure! Mother, I’ll start teaching you how to make desserts tomorrow! Once you learn how to make desserts, you can open a shop!”

The next day, Jian Qingqing went to the county town and bought all the milk, flour, eggs, and so on. She began to teach her mother how to make various desserts, egg tarts, bread, and so on, as well as all kinds of milk tea.
She could no bear to use the box of tea that Ming Zhiyan had given her, so she randomly bought a box of medium-priced milk tea.
To make milk tea and drink desserts, all kinds of fruits and jam were needed. Generally, there were not many people selling fruits in the county town. Jian Qingqing called the children of the village to go up the mountain to pick fruits, and as long as they could eat, she would want them all. Then, she would choose to exchange them for money or sweets.
Ads by Pubfuture
Almost all of the children were used to exchange for snacks, because it would not be long before the money was in their hands and would soon be taken away by the adults. Moreover, there was no place to buy snacks in the village, so it was not worth it to exchange them for money. Jian Qingqing agreed readily.
Although there were many kinds of wild fruits in the mountains, there were also many ferocious beasts. However, the officers and soldiers had gone up to hunt once before, and now those large ferocious beasts were hiding deep in the mountains and did not dare to come out.
Therefore, the adults were quite at ease when the children picked the fruits at the periphery of the mountains. Even if they did not exchange them for food, they would often secretly pick them. It was better to pick them to exchange for some snacks.
After the fruits were brought back, Jian Qingqing made all the jam she could out of the fruits. Those that could not be used to put on the cake or put into milk tea. n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
Mother Jian was very talented at making desserts. Basically, she could learn every single one of them after learning a few times. Moreover, she made them very beautiful. In short, they were much better than Jian Qingqing’s weird-looking ones, however, she still could not control the temperature and baking time well, so she ruined a lot of bread and cake.
Ads by Pubfuture
Mother Jian looked at the ruined bread with some heartache. She could not eat much at home, and she could not keep them for too long. She asked doubtfully, “Big Sister, is it not suitable for me to make these? Why don’t you open the shop yourself? I won’t do it. It’s such a waste.”
Seeing the confidence that mother Jian had built up with great difficulty being destroyed again, how could Jian Qingqing be willing to do so? She said, “Who said that? Mother, you’re doing much better than me! Look at how beautiful your cooking is. Look at mine. It’s so ugly that no one would be willing to buy it even if I were to make it. If you practice more, you’ll definitely be able to make it well. Moreover, this bread isn’t completely ruined and can still be eaten. How about we give it to the officials to eat? It’s been hard on them to help us clear the land every day.”
Mother Jian thought about it and felt that it was a good idea. She suddenly felt enlightened. “Alright, then we’ll give it to them to eat.”
It was not a waste to give food to the officials. Although the officials were helping their families develop the land, they were living in the county office and did not want their wages. They felt embarrassed.
These days, the officials had given them a few hundred acres of barren land. The barren land had been planted with food. Lord Ming had promised that this batch of food would be given to the officials after it bore yield, but the land would be left to them. In this way, their family had a few hundred acres of land, and the officials were still in the process of clearing the wasteland. So, it was hard to say how much they would be able to produce in the end.
Now that the abandoned desserts had a place to go, Mother Jian no longer felt sorry for the ingredients. Instead, she began to bake vigorously. After a few days of continuous baking, Mother Jian was already very familiar with the heat and timing, and the baked bread and desserts were getting better and better.
Seeing that Mother Jian was ready to finish her apprenticeship, Jian Qingqing gave her 2,000 taels of silver to let her do whatever she wanted.
With so much money in her hands, Mother Jian was both excited and nervous. She vowed to open the shop and make a lot of money.

After Mother Jian went out to investigate, Jian Qingqing continued to wander around the village, recording the data of those crops.
There were already many sweet potatoes and corn that had sprouted. Perhaps the soil in this era was relatively barren, and there was no modern fertilizer to serve them. These crops were generally listless, and they still looked relatively thin and small at the moment.
The seeds of this batch of crops were all left behind after Jian Qingqing had planted them once or twice. Simply put, they had already lived in this era for two generations and were gradually adapting to the conditions of this era. The yield might decrease year by year, it was just that she did not know how much it would decrease.
Looking at the barren soil, Jian Qingqing thought of a way. She suggested that the villagers cut some grass on the mountain before planting the land and burn it into ash. They would first sprinkle it in the ground for a few days before planting the crops.
The villagers usually used their own farm manure to fertilize the soil. They would also sprinkle the ash from cooking. Most of the time, they would burn the grass they cut while clearing the land and sprinkle it on the ground. However, there were almost no people who used to cut grass to burn ash, this was too tiring.

Jian Qingqing said, “Now that you have served the land well, the soil is fertilized so that the food will grow better. Do you want to eat your fill? If the land is not fertilized, you can’t grow anything.”
After hearing this, everyone looked at each other and hesitated to go up the mountain to cut the grass.
The grass on the mountain was tall and dense, and there were snakes and insects in it. It was very difficult to cut it down. Usually, they only needed to cut enough to cook their own food. If they were to burn it to fertilize it, then they would have to cut more. It was really tiring work. However, thinking about the grain that would grow well during the harvest, it was still worth it.
After recording the latest batch of data, Jian Qingqing sent the records to the county town to inform Ming Zhiyan.
Only when she arrived there did she know that Lin Zhiqing had already left. She asked in surprise, “Has he recovered so quickly?” n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Ming Zhiyan nodded. “It’s almost done.”

As he said that, he took out a letter and handed it to Jian Qingqing. “This is the letter he left for you. Take a look.”
Jian Qingqing opened the letter and there were some words of farewell and gratitude written in it. He said that Wei Wusheng said that Granny Lin’s illness was very difficult to treat and that there were not many years left. She did not want to stay in Shifeng County either, hence, he brought Granny Lin and Li Baode on a trip. He went to look for doctors from all over the world to see if they could treat Granny Lin’s illness.
At the same time, he also went to the place where he had stayed all these years to take a look, if there was anything that needed his help, he could write a letter to ask him to come back.
Jian Qingqing thought about it and felt that it was quite good. Shifeng County should be Granny Lin’s sad place. She had always been unwilling to stay here. In the last days of her life, she would be able to be together with her son, it should be the best ending for her.
However, her good friend had left. In ancient times, transportation was inconvenient and communication was difficult. She did not know if she would be able to see him again after he left. Jian Qingqing was still a little melancholic.
Ming Zhiyan comforted her, “There is no banquet that does not end. If we are fated, we will meet again one day.”
Jian Qingqing exhaled and smiled. “I am not sad. On the contrary, I am quite happy for him. However, it is still a little sad for a friend to go to a faraway place.”
Ming Zhiyan replied with a grunt. He wanted to ask if she would be sad if he left. However, he still held it in and said, “What are you here for today?”
Jian Qingqing took out her notebook and showed it to him. “This is the growth of the crops I recorded yesterday. They are smaller than the ones I planted last year. It may be because the land is not fertile.”

Ming Zhiyan was not very knowledgeable about farming, but he knew that if the fertility could not keep up with the later harvest, the harvest might be very bad.
He frowned and asked, “Then, in Miss Jian’s opinion, do you have any good methods? Do you want to buy fertilizer or do something else? As long as Miss Jian says it, I will definitely do my best. The high yield of grain is related to the future of Great Wei and must not suffer any losses.”
Jian Qingqing muttered, “Buying fertilizer is not a good idea. First, we have planted too much land, so we don’t have that much fertilizer. Second, we don’t only need fertilizer this time. After the crops are bigger, we have to add more fertilizer from time to time. So, I am thinking of a better way to provide fertilizer continuously.”
Ming Zhiyan pondered for a while before saying, “Miss Jian, are you saying that you want to raise your own livestock?”

Jian Qingiqng nodded. “Yes, we can set up a farm in Jian Family Village. It doesn’t matter if we raise pigs, chickens, or ducks. As long as we can use an endless supply of fertilizer, and we can also earn some extra money, we can kill two birds with one stone. However, if the farm is too small, there won’t be enough fertilizer. If it’s too big, it’ll be a problem to sell it.” Nôv(el)B\\jnn
Ming Zhiyan said in a deep voice, “The market isn’t a problem. If Shifeng County can’t buy it all, we can transport it to Cairo City. Even if Cairo City can’t take them all, we can transport it to the border. The soldiers at the border still can’t eat their fill. Raising more meat is also a good thing for them.”
Jian Qingqing’s eyes lit up. This was not a bad idea, but in turn, she felt that it was not very feasible. This era was not like the present. An 800-mile journey was only a matter of a few hours. At this time, 800 miles might take many days if one were to walk. Putting aside whether the chickens, ducks, and pigs could survive the long journey, there was not so much manpower and material resources to transport all of them. If they died, there was no freezing technology here, so it would smell bad before they had traveled even one-tenth of the way.
“If they were transported to the border, how would they be transported? The nearest border from here would also take more than ten days to walk. If they were to use a car to pull it over, it would be too much manpower and material resources.”

Ming Zhiyan was puzzled. “What’s the point of that? In war, we also need to bring meat with us. If we can’t bring some, we’ll bring it after we process and marinate it. Don’t worry, there are officials who specialize in transporting this type of meat.”
Jian Qingqing was shocked. She did not know that in this era, there was a need to bring meat to war. She thought that they would only bring rice and vegetables. At most, they would bring some processed meat. She did not expect that they would still be able to make it.
“Can the living survive a long journey? Won’t they die when they get there?”
“If they die halfway, then we’ll marinate the meat. There will always be places to bring them.”
She was afraid that less than ten percent of the livestock would still survive after they were brought to the place. However, it was too unhealthy to marinate them after they died. It was better to kill them all and marinate them before bringing them.
“Then why didn’t you kill and marinate them before bringing them? Wouldn’t it be more troublesome to marinate them after they died on the road?”
Ming Zhiyan did not know why Jian Qingqing was suddenly interested in this. However, he still explained carefully, “It’s too far to marinate them in advance. I’m afraid that they would already be rotten by the time we reach there.”
Jian Qingqing did not know what the technology of marinating meat was like in this era. It would still stink after being processed?
However, she suddenly had an idea. Perhaps she could do an integrated project. In short, she could raise the animals well and then set up a meat processing factory, mainly to process the animals she raised herself. Then, she could transport the finished products to the border. This way, she would not need to spend so much effort and the soldiers would be able to eat better.

With this thought in mind, she said, “Why don’t we open a meat processing factory at that time? It specializes in processing this meat and then sells it elsewhere. This way, it won’t be limited by the distance and time.”
“Meat processing factory?” Even though Ming Zhiyan did not know what a meat processing factory meant, he could understand it based on the context. He asked in puzzlement, “Why do we need to go through all this trouble to process it first?”
Jian Qingqing explained, “I’ve thought about it. According to your method of transporting livestock, the consumption is too high and it’s not healthy for the soldiers to eat it. The pickling or marinating method is crude, and if the method is not correct, it will lead to easy corruption. If we can make a meat processing factory and use a better method to process the meat, the journey will not be a problem, and the soldiers will eat more healthily.”
Ming Zhiyan knew that Jian Qingqing would definitely bring it up, so he said, “Is there anything that needs to be prepared? I’ll do it.”

Jian Qingqing thought for a moment, “There’s no rush to open the factory. I want to raise 200 pigs and 3,000 chickens for the time being. I don’t know where I can buy so many animals. Also, feeding so many pigs and chickens is also a problem. I might have to go back and make some plans before I can proceed.”
Ming Zhiyan said in a deep voice, “Tell me when you’re done. These aren’t problems. Some large families will have many livestock in their farms. When the time comes, you can buy from them. If you feed them, you can also buy food to feed them. Money isn’t a problem.”
Jian Qingqing looked at him and sighed. This was some young master who did not know the suffering of the human world. If he fed the livestock food, he might not be able to make a profit. He could not possibly do business at a loss just for some fertilizer, right?
Ming Zhiyan knew that there was something wrong with her eyes, so he said directly, “Miss Jian, the most important thing now is to grow a good high-yield grain. The rest can be put aside first. This bit of money is nothing compared to a high-yield grain. If Miss Jian is willing, all the expenses can be paid by me.”
Jian Qingqing frowned and said, “It’s not that I’m unwilling to spend this money, but it’s not worth it. Lord Ming, don’t worry. I’ll find a better method. At the latest, in three days, I’ll give you a plan.”
She planned to go back and prepare her own feed and mix it with other things to ensure nutrition without spending so much money. That would kill two birds with one stone, right?

Seeing that she was really unwilling, Ming Zhiyan acknowledged and did not force her. “Leave it to me when you’re ready. I’ll go do it.”
As he said that, he took out an envelope and handed it to Jian Qingqing.
Jian Qingqing looked at it in surprise. “Who gave this to me?”
This envelope was much better looking than the dark yellow envelope she had seen before. There were exquisite paintings on it, and she could faintly smell a pleasant fragrance. This fragrance was a little familiar.
Ming Zhiyan said in a concise manner, “His Majesty ordered someone to send it over.”
Jian Qingqing almost knelt down. Her mouth was wide open as she asked in shock, “You, you, you, who did you say gave it to me?!”
Ming Zhiyan did not expect her reaction to be so big. He pursed his lips and smiled. He said, “The last time I sent the method to make fine salt, His Majesty was delighted and specially wrote a letter to Miss Jian.”
“Ah?” Jian Qingqing looked at him in a daze. “Didn’t I ask you to say that it was Brother Lin who invented the method? How could it be me?”
Ming Zhiyan looked at her seriously, “Miss Jian, do you know what kind of crime it will be if this matter is exposed? The crime of deceiving the Emperor, not only you, but even I and Young Master Lin, who helped you to hide it, will be exterminated. Reporting this to the Emperor is not something that can be done so simply.”n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

Jian Qingqing did not know that the situation would be so serious. She did not think too much before and only wanted to save Lin Zhiqing. In her opinion, as long as she did not say anything, even Ming Zhiyan would not say anything, Lin Zhiqing would not say anything either. This matter would not be known by anyone else.
Now Ming Zhiyan had pointed it out, she finally realized that she was afraid. There was no wall in the world that could not be exposed. If one day she was discovered, she would not be able to escape the crime of deceiving the Emperor. The feudal society was the Emperor’s word, no matter how great the credit was, as long as the Emperor was displeased with you, you will die.
It was because she did not pay enough attention to the position of the feudal ruler in this era. If something happened, it would really implicate her family and friends.
Ming Zhiyan did not expect her to be so frightened. He quickly comforted her, “It’s okay. His Majesty is not that kind of person. No one else will know about this matter.”
Jian Qingqing wiped the cold sweat from her forehead and forced a smile. “Thank you. Otherwise, I really don’t know what else I can do if I implicate others.”
Ming Zhiyan replied with an ‘okay’. He felt a little guilty. This matter was actually not that big. He should not have scared her. In order to divert her attention, he handed the envelope to her again and said, “Open it and see.”

Jian Qingqing rubbed her hands by her side and received it solemnly.
“How should I open it? Just open it directly?”
Ming Zhiyan raised his eyebrows. “How else do you want to open it?”
Jian Qingqing, “…”
She felt that her question was silly.
After this interruption, the fear in her heart dissipated a lot. She carefully tore the seal off. This was a letter personally written by the Emperor. If she could keep it forever, it would become a family heirloom.
After the envelope was opened, there was a thin piece of paper inside. It was the same as what she had seen at Ming Zhiyan’s inkstone.

Jian Qingqing read it carefully. Although there were only a few lines, she read it for a long time.
The letter expressed her admiration for her, her gratitude for discovering high-yield grain and inventing the fine salt method, and her contribution to Great Wei. Of course, the Emperor would not openly express his gratitude. This was what she realized.
She was still very excited to receive the thank-you letter from a big shot at the top of the country’s pyramid. She read the letter again and again, not knowing if there was any good way to preserve this letter. This way, it could be passed down to her descendants as a family heirloom.
Ming Zhiyan looked at her bright smile and understood the excitement and happiness in her heart. He also smiled and said, “Alright, put it away first. There will be plenty of time to read it later.”
Jian Qingging folded it carefully and carefully put it back into the envelope. It was exactly the same as before.
After she put it away, Ming Zhiyan took out another envelope. This envelope was much thicker than the previous one. It was bulging.
Jian Qingqing looked at it in surprise and said in disbelief, “This, could it be…”
Ming Zhiyan smiled and nodded, confirming her thoughts. “That’s right, open it and take a look.”
Jian Qingqing immediately took it and impatiently opened it. She skimmed through the contents of the letter.
That’s right, this letter was the paper recipe of this era. She had only said that last time, but she did not expect Ming Zhiyan to really find it for her. She guessed that Ming Zhiyan’s identity must not be simple, it was impossible for him to get the recipe without the Emperor’s consent. Ordinary ministers would not dare to make such a bold request for her and the Emperor.
