Chapter 14: Is Thick Enough?
Jiang Ying is a pure science student.
She has been working hard to study and do scientific research since she was a child, and she actually lacks a lot of common sense in life.
Even after the death of her parents, she did not worry much about life.
Her parents left her enough property to live on, plus her academic performance has always been very good, and the school also attaches great importance to her, she is the darling of the teachers, and the teachers are naturally reluctant to let her be affected by the trivial things in life.
So much so that Jiang Ying did not think about many things as comprehensively as Tan Qi.
Jiang Ying sat on the bed, hanging his head slightly, with a little sorrow in his eyes.
This made Tan Qi feel a little pity in his heart.
He reached out and wanted to touch Jiang Ying's head, but thinking of Jiang Ying's disgust for him, he could only clench his fists and try to restrain this impulse.
"Do you know today's productivity?"
Talk about Qi and ask Jiang Ying.
Jiang Ying blinked and shook his head.
She didn't do much research on history, and she didn't know how the ancients lived.
Tan Qi sighed: "In this era, ordinary people have tried their best to have a full meal, most of them in order to survive, unless they eat some dry food when the farm is busy, most of the time they drink thin, thin porridge with wild vegetables is the most common thing they eat, in this case, who will have the luxury of going out to buy food?" ”
"What about the rich?"
Jiang Ying is very scientific research, she doesn't understand and asks, and she won't feel embarrassed or anything.
"Rich families have special cooks, and they will ask people to cook what they want to eat, and there are very few cases of eating in restaurants, especially female dependents, who almost don't go out much, and those men come out to socialize...... Well, a lot of the time it's about drinking flower wine. ”
Jiang Ying understands that it is very difficult to open a snack bar here, and it is not good, let alone making money, I am afraid that I will have to lose money.
"The most important thing is that I cook delicious because I am willing to put spices, at that time the usual spices were sky-high here, and many spices were more expensive than gold, you see, can our family afford spices?"
Talking about Qi's question by question: "There is another point, we have no power and no power, the snack bar can't make much money, and opening a big hotel will inevitably be difficult for those powerful people, how you want to pay and income is not proportional, some are not cost-effective." ”
"Then it's not open." Jiang Ying is not unspeakable, what Tan Qi said is very reasonable, and she doesn't have to do this business.
"You put the ingredients away first." Tan Qi smiled and pushed the fabric to Jiang Ying's side: "I'll think about it another day and see if I can find a profitable business." ”
"Okay." Jiang Ying put the fabric in the cabinet and locked it, then took out two pieces of dim sum from the cabinet and handed them to Tan Qi.
After receiving the snack, Tan Qi was ecstatic.
He felt that today was his lucky day, not only did Jiang Ying not give him a face, but he even remembered whether he would be hungry.
Bowing his head, Tan Qi took a bite of the snack.
To be honest, the dim sum is quite hard, and it chokes on dry.
But for Tan Qi, it is supremely delicious.
After eating a piece of dim sum, Tan Qi talked to Jiang Ying about the thoughts in his heart: "Now this world pays attention to the agriculture and industry of the world, the scholar refers to those families, we can't climb up, and the status of industry and commerce is low, once you enter this industry, you will inevitably have to hug your thighs, it is better to be a farmer, we both have wood abilities now, planting is not a difficult thing for us, I think about planting first, and then slowly think about something else." ”
Speaking of wood-based abilities, Jiang Ying thought of the sudden changes in her and Tan Qi.
Jiang Ying used to be a strong person in the water system, while Tan Qi was a strong person in the space system.
But now both of them have become three-line ability powerhouses.
Both of them have more psychic and wood-based abilities.
If you talk about it in general, Jiang Ying still has a little bit of a spatial ability, but her spatial system is based on the fact that Tan Qi has space, and she has some connection with Tan Qi's space, strictly speaking, this is not her ability.
Jiang Ying didn't understand how she and Tan Qi's wood-based abilities came about, and she always had a bad premonition.
"Farming with wood?"
Tan Qi snorted: "If you don't farm, I can't think of anything else for the time being." ”
He said his plan in detail: "Farm the land first, and then study hard when it is stable, and strive to come back with a reputation in a few years. ”
When it came to reading, Jiang Ying stopped talking.
She found that the books she had been reading for more than twenty years were not very useful here.
Her knowledge is no better than making a good poem.
And Tan Qi, a liberal arts student, can be like a fish in water here.
This sense of disparity made Jiang Ying very uncomfortable for a while.
However, she has never been a person who drills the horns of the bull, and she quickly put her mentality right.
"I farm, you read."
She said what she thought: "I still have some money here, you can take it and buy books." ”
"Okay."
Tan Qi agreed with a smile.
After determining the direction of future efforts, the two of them did not talk much more, and as usual, soon turned off the lights and went to sleep.
The next morning, Jiang Ying got dressed and went to the main room for dinner.
By the time she passed, breakfast had already been made.
A table was set up in the main room, and the family was sitting around preparing to eat.
Seeing Jiang Ying coming, Tan Qi smiled and beckoned her to sit down: "I left you a meal, you hurry over and eat." ”
The morning meal was not very good, it was just a foolish porridge, and there was not even a little dry food.
Jiang Ying sat down, looked at the bowl of black and green porridge and twitched the corners of his mouth.
She felt a little overwhelmed.
But everyone else has eaten it, and she can't make that exception.
Picking up the bowl, Jiang Ying quickly drank a bowl of porridge.
After drinking, she felt hungrier than if she hadn't drunk at all.
Tan Qi tugged at her sleeve and glanced at her, which meant that he didn't make trouble yet, he tried to get something delicious.
Jiang Ying bowed his head and remained silent.
At this time, Tan Sang coughed and began to speak: "The third child's age is not too young, it's time to look at others, in order to marry a daughter-in-law for the third child, we have to be frugal." ”
Everyone nodded, especially Tan Jiao, with a happy face.
Then, Tan Sang took out two pieces of pork skin.
"Others say that our family is picky, and we don't want to be in-laws with our family, when the second child looks at each other, people dislike it, and when it comes to the third child, we can't do it anymore, I want to think about it, I have to let people know that our family is rich, we are willing to eat, and from now on, no matter who goes out, I have to wipe my mouth with pigskin, so that others know that our family can afford to eat meat."
After speaking, Tan Sang first took a piece of pigskin and wiped his mouth, and then handed it to Tan Bi.
And Wang also picked up another piece of pigskin to wipe his mouth like Tan Sang, wiped it and handed it to Zhou.
Belch?
Jiang Ying's hands were trembling.
How many people share a piece of pigskin to wipe their mouths?
This kind of thing can only be done by talking about family members.
Wang and Zhou can share a piece of pigskin without any psychological burden, but Jiang Ying can't do this kind of thing.
She wants a face, and she has a bit of cleanliness, and she will never share a piece of pigskin with others.
Well, that's wrong, she can't just wipe her mouth with a piece of pigskin.
