Since Gong Jian started hunting more than a year ago and sent the prey he hunted to the grocery store in the town to sell, his family's life has been improving step by step. Later, more hares were caught, and with the careful care of the second brother, the number of hares in the family has grown from a few to dozens and now to hundreds.

Now Gong Jian basically doesn't have to go into the mountains to hunt, as long as he sells the rabbits that he has grown up in the back yard directly.

So even later, the villagers knew that Gong Jian was hunting in the back mountains. There are also many people who follow the trend and go up the back mountain like them. But often those prey that are caught do not add up to Gong Jian, and there are more prey raised in the backyard.

However, what really made their family rich was that Gong Jian encountered a small incident in the town one day.

After Ken sold his prey in the town, he wandered aimlessly around the town. The family is now basically on the right track, but Gong Jian still always has a faint sense of urgency. He always felt that if he didn't have any money to spare, he couldn't deal with any unexpected events. This always makes him feel uneasy.

Nowadays, there are many people who go hunting in the back mountains. Gong Jian can't guarantee that he can hit prey every time he enters the mountain. And in the depths of the real mountain, the family told him not to go. So the family's income turned to the backyard farming industry.

Gong Jian felt that he should consider a new source of income. So after he sold the hare that day, he did not rush back to the village in a hurry, but looked for ideas to make money in the town.

Before he knew it, Gong Jian had turned to the small pier in the town. He saw that there was a merchant ship on the dock, and several cargo carriers rushed up, surrounding a person who looked like a steward, asking if he needed to carry the goods.

This scene reminded Gong Jian that a year ago, when he woke up from his bed at home and was in severe pain, it is said that it was because he fainted from exhaustion while carrying goods on the dock. Unconsciously, his feet went in that direction.

Before he could get to the vicinity of the merchant ship, Gong Jian saw two well-dressed foreign businessmen walking towards him. As they walked past him, the two of them were still complaining. "There's just one restaurant in this town. I'm tired of eating. ”

"Not really, let's talk of those of us running outside. Not to mention sleeping in the open air, it is to catch up with a town, that is, there is a place where you can sleep well, but this food is always the same. ”

Hearing the words of the two, Gong Jian's feet paused. These merchants who come and go from the south to the north, they run a lot of places, and it is said that they should know a lot of special food. Why are these two complaining about the single menu?

From that day on, he began to pay attention. Gong Jian inquired from many channels, and he learned that although there are many ingredients now, the chef's cooking technique is very simple, and the seasoning is basically single.

Gong Jian didn't know why, he had some memories of dishes in his mind. And most importantly, he found that the dishes in his head were very simple to make. Materials are even more common.

He wrote them down when he made sure that no one else knew about them. Through the Tin Kee grocery store, these recipes are sold to the restaurants they run.

At that time, Gong Jian and Tian Shopkeeper already had a certain friendship. That is, because of his connection, the general manager of Tian Kee Restaurant came to the town to meet Gong Jian once.

When they met and discussed, Gong Jian asked Gong Yue to make those dishes in advance. He took those dishes with him and consulted with the steward.

said a thousand things and ten thousand, but I didn't let the chief steward taste the taste of the food with his own mouth, and it was more direct. So when the steward tasted all the dishes, he immediately made a decision. With five hundred taels, I bought all the recipes of Gong Jian.

Since he had the huge sum of five hundred taels of silver, Gong Jian first spent a lot of money to invite a famous doctor from the state to treat his father.

After the diagnosis and treatment of that famous doctor, Gong Jian's father's condition finally improved. Although it was so long that it was so long that it was impossible to get out of bed and walk because of the injury in his leg. But after being treated by a famous doctor, he no longer had to endure the almost insane pain. So his spirit is obviously much better than before.

After improving physically and mentally, Gong Jian's father is now able to do some light work at home. The main thing is that he is no longer as depressed and depressed as before.

Gong Jian gave his mother another 100 taels of silver tickets as the family's usual expenses. His mother had never seen such a thing as a silver ticket, let alone a hundred taels. If you don't say a year, you can't earn a hundred taels in ten years.

The main value of the one hundred taels that Gong Jian gave her mother was not in using its purchasing power, but in appeasing her mother's tense heart all these years.

Sure enough, since then, Gong Jian's mother will no longer cut back on food and clothing because she is worried about her livelihood. She also slowly accepted the brainwashing that Gong Jian often gave them: money is not saved, but earned.

Gong Jian originally wanted to send his second brother to a private school, but the scale of their town was too small, and the old gentleman who had barely taught in the private school before had withdrawn the private school this year because of his age. Now the children in the town have no books to read.

So Gong Jian's desire to put his second brother in a private school to study could only be put on hold temporarily. He could only plan in his heart, and after earning more money, he would move his family to the county, so that one step would be in place. In that way, not only will their family life be more convenient, but his younger brother will also be able to go to a better private school.

As for the little sister Gong Yue, Gong Jian feels that she is the one who owes the most at home. But even if he has money now, he can't think of how to compensate her except to make more new clothes and buy more jewelry for his little sister. He can only be better to his little sister usually.

Every month, Gong Jian now has to give his younger siblings some pocket money, but both of them are very sensible and rarely spend money to buy anything for themselves. Such a considerate younger brother and sister, Gong Jian felt very distressed when he thought about it. He needs to earn more money so that his younger siblings no longer have to worry about the future.

So when winter came and the heavy snow fell one after another, Gong Jian, who had been thinking about ways to make money, thought of it in a flash of inspiration, and the memory of somewhere, there was a kind of most suitable dish to eat in winter - hot pot.

He carefully flipped through his memories and found that the hot pot had never appeared in his original memory.
