CHAPTER XVII
said that he would let Mingxiu try it himself, but Ming's father was not willing to give her the meat Huo Huo, and he was relieved to see that she was holding wild vegetables.
At the dinner table, Ming's father and mother looked at the plate of wild vegetables with a generous and righteous face, and they didn't use chopsticks, nor did they go down.
Mingxiu put a lot of oil in it, wouldn't it be a waste if he didn't eat it?
However, Xie Zhan didn't know the trick inside, and when he saw Mingxiu eating happily, he also tasted it.
"There's dogwood here?"
I can't see that the Ming family is willing to buy dogwood.
At this time, dogwood is a high price, one or two is worth more than a dozen yuan, although it is nothing to Xie Zhan, but this is more expensive than salt.
And dogwood is also an ingredient, so even if you don't eat it, it's nothing.
Only some well-off families are willing to buy dogwood.
Mingxiu shook his head, "It's not dogwood, it's the spice I found in the mountains, and my father said that eating it will make my mouth hurt." ”
"It's good, it tastes better than dogwood." Xie Zhan was noncommittal, although Ming's father said that it was poisonous, but he didn't see anything uncomfortable after eating it for so long, and his mouth hurt a little, but this is also the taste of this seasoning.
Isn't ginger and garlic a little spicy when eaten raw?
Seeing that the two of them were eating happily, Ming's father was also a little suspicious of the impression in his heart, so he held a small chopstick.
The entrance lit up.
"It turns out that this thing is not poisonous, it really needs to be cooked before it can be eaten."
Ming's mother didn't open her mouth to eat early, she liked this taste very much, it was really addictive.
"It's not poisonous to eat raw, it's just a little spicy that ordinary people can't accept, just like ordinary people don't eat ginger and garlic, right?"
There are indeed ruthless people who can eat ginger and garlic raw, but after all, they are a minority, just like Mingxiu herself, if it is used as a seasoning, it is okay to say, if she really wants to eat it, she also refuses.
"Does this thing have seeds? How to plant? ”
Compared with Father Ming, Xie Zhan obviously thought more.
This thing tastes better than dogwood, and it will also make the body hot, the desert country is north, and the northern border is really a country of ice and snow, if the military stationed there all the year round has this thing, life can be slightly better, at least not every year there will be a situation of freezing to death.
If it can be planted in large quantities, it will be a good thing for the country and the people.
Mingxiu glanced at him, "This is the seed." She pulled out the chili seeds and showed him, "It's not difficult to plant them, but everyone thinks it's poisonous, and I think it's a little difficult to promote it." ”
She can also see that Xie Zhan has an extraordinary background, but the down-and-out phoenix is not as good as a chicken, and now Xie Zhan is just borrowing her house, and everyone in the village treats him as a beggar, in this case, even if he finds something good, he can't do anything.
What's more, Mingxiu doesn't have the heart of serving the country and the people, for her, it is already very good to be able to make her family's life better, as for the righteousness of the family and the country, it is better to wait for her family to worry about food and clothing.
Seeing Mingxiu's thoughts, Xie Zhan raised his eyebrows, "I found this thing, what are you going to do with it?" ”
"How else can I make a fortune?" Mingxiu was dumbfounded, could it be that Xie Zhan thought that she would think about using these to benefit anyone?
With Mingxiu's mind, it would be good to be able to benefit himself if he had no spare strength.
"If this thing is carried forward, the profit is not small." Xie Zhan's eyes were heavy, "When the time comes, will your family really be able to hold on?" ”
"It's just a seasoning, where is it so powerful?"
Mingxiu didn't care, would those powerful people be moved by this little spice?
I don't think so.
"If it's just an ordinary seasoning, it's naturally not, but have you ever thought that the desert is in the north, and in winter, it is dominated by ice and snow, and how many people are frozen to death every year? If you have this thing, the number of people who are frozen to death can be greatly reduced, not to mention the soldiers in the north. ”
It's not just a seasoning, if it works well, it can even be a big thing.
Mingxiu was slightly stunned, she really didn't expect to go there.
"You think the powerful will turn a blind eye to this? There are a lot of people who have this vision, no matter how far away, let's talk about the near, as soon as this thing comes out, as long as the local county order is not stupid, it will not turn a blind eye, when the time comes, how will you stay? ”
If it's a good request from the county order, it's okay, but what if someone wants to rob it?
The emperor is far away, and Mingxiu can only bear it even if he is wronged!
I'm afraid that the county order wants to cut the grass and eradicate the roots, and take the credit on himself, and then the Ming family will just be fish on the chopping board!
Ming's father and mother were frightened, and they never thought that the spice that their daughter accidentally discovered would cause so many disputes and dangers.
“…… Xiu'er, our family can survive well by farming, so forget about this business. ”
Before it started, Ming's father and mother had the intention of retreating.
Mingxiu was a little unwilling, the poor people watched them leave without worrying about food and clothing, and she couldn't bear it in her heart.
"You guessed the end before it began? What if it's just your villain's heart? "The county order may not be moved by the little chili pepper, how can those powerful people take these to heart?
Wintering with chili peppers? It's just whimsical!
The most understanding of chili peppers is Mingxiu, this thing can indeed make people hot, but if you want to survive the winter, it is still too much, but it can only save emergencies, and it is not so useful......
"Even if it can only save the emergency, it will be a great achievement!" Seeing that she didn't believe it, Xie Zhan felt a little breathless in his heart, he wanted to stand by and watch, but he couldn't find a more suitable place to live in a short time, and if the Ming family was investigated, he wouldn't be able to escape.
The two sides are now counted as grasshoppers on a rope.
"If you really do it, it's hard to stop it."
Xie Zhan looked at her condescendingly, "If I were you, I would find a way to throw this hot potato out and give it to my own family in exchange for the benefits of enough food and clothing." ”
And now the Ming family wants money, isn't it?
