The Lu family bought the tofu recipe, obviously not for a little profit, but for more schemes.

Specifically, April can't think of it, and she doesn't care.

She said: "Making tofu is very simple, just send someone to learn it." ”

She had long expected that tofu would be popular in the local area, and sooner or later it would attract the covetousness of big households, and she was also prepared.

"It's just that I hope Lu Shi doesn't sell tofu locally. It is not easy for the villagers to have an income. ”

Once Lu Shi is inserted into the local tofu market, the villagers will be helpless.

Lu Lin looked at April, "Is this the original intention of Miss Yuan to only teach people in her village to learn how to make tofu?" Lu admires! Miss Yuan can rest assured that the Lu family did not buy the tofu recipe for local sales, and I can guarantee that.

In addition, the Lu family not only wanted to learn how to make tofu, but also how to make brine. Miss Yuan doesn't have to worry, the method of making brine is only for the use of the Lu family, and will never be sold to the outside world. At least not in Yunyang County. I, Lu Lin, can guarantee this. ”

The reputation of the eldest son of the Lu family is still very valuable.

April took a sip of his tea bowl.

Her face was calm, and she knew that sooner or later someone would make a secret recipe for brine, and it was inevitable. The Lu family is a big local family, and the Hu family in Shanghe Village is a nouveau riche in front of the Lu family.

The Lu family came forward to buy the brine, and other big families would definitely not come to her idea again.

She can take this opportunity to cut off the follow-up troubles.

"If Lu's keeps his promise, the brine formula is not impossible to sell. I don't know how much money Lu Gongzi is willing to pay? ”

Lu Lin immediately said: "Three thousand dollars!" ”

April shook his head.

Lu Lin raised her eyebrows slightly, the little girl had a lot of appetite, "Miss Yuan might as well make a price, everything is negotiable." ”

"Ten thousand dollars. Don't worry, Mr. Lu, I can not only hand over the brine formula. Soybeans, tofu, in fact, there are many ways to make it. I don't know if Lu Gongzi has heard of fermented bean curd, but has he ever heard of tempeh? ”

"No, I didn't."

"I'll do all of that. Sufu and tempeh, made in winter, can be stored until March of the following year. ”

"Oh?" Lu Lin's mind turned, "Can it really be stored for half a year?" ”

"Yes! However, whether it is fermented bean curd or tempeh, it is not easy to make, and spices are also needed. Spices are expensive ......"

"It's okay!" Lu Lin immediately decided, "Ten thousand dollars to make a deal." In a month or two, the weather will cool down, and then I want to see with my own eyes how the bean curd and tempeh are, and whether they are as good as Miss Yuan said. ”

The implication is that if it weren't so good, the Lu family's money wouldn't be so easy to get.

April readily agreed.

The two sides made a contract to stay with Lu Lin's mother-in-law and a long-term follower, and the two of them would follow April to learn how to make tofu and brine.

Before leaving, Lu Lin was very curious and asked more, "As far as I know, Miss Yuan has never left Yunyang County." I would venture to ask, where did Miss Yuan's craftsmanship come from? ”

April smiled indifferently, "Forgive me Gongzi Lu, I want to keep a little secret." ”

Lu Lin was stunned for a moment, and then laughed, "Thank you Miss Yuan for being so honest." If you make up some false words to deceive me, I will despise you. ”

He is a big man, his appearance is excellent, and the confidence he exudes all over his body makes people unable to take their eyes off him, attracting frequent snooping and looking in the village.

April didn't look at him more.

She has also seen people who look better than Lu Lin.

"Lu Gongzi walks slowly."

……

Seeing off Lu Gongzi, Yuan Li hurriedly pulled April into the room to speak.

"Do you really want to sell the brine recipe to the Lu family? What do we do in the future? Your father and brother are gone, the tofu business is gone, and now you can't even do the brine business, do you really want to sit and eat empty? ”

"Mother, rest assured, the Lu family will not sell brine in Yunyang County."

"Do you believe in the Lu family?"

"The Lu family wants face, so I believe it."

April was loud.

Now the world is quite peaceful, the big families are still face-saving, and the food appearance is relatively elegant, and they will not go back on their word for a little profit.

In a few years, the world will be in chaos, and the tofu business will definitely not be able to continue. At that time, it doesn't matter whether the Lu family sells brine or not.

Yuan Li was worried, she didn't know what would happen in a few years, she only knew that the Lu family was a big family, and no one dared to grab the business that the Lu family wanted to do.

She sighed, "It's hard for you." Guarding this business, and not relying on it, since people came to the door to buy in person, they could only pinch their noses and agree. That's the Lu clan after all. ”

It's good that the Lu family spent money to buy, not rob.

She continued to do needlework. Only when she is busy with needlework can she forget her troubles outside.

Little four okra ran to April's side and looked at it with a blank eye, "Sister, will we still make tofu and sell it in the future?" ”

"Do it!"

"But everyone in the village has learned how to make tofu, so who else can we sell our tofu to? If only I had grown up a little more, I would be able to sell tofu. ”

"Little kid, don't worry about these things. Have you done your homework? ”

April has money and can afford pen and paper. The fourth and fifth children also said goodbye to the days of writing on the sand with branches.

Start with their respective names, then learn the names of villages, places, counties, and people......

April is also the first time to be a master, she has no experience, she just teaches according to her own understanding.

The little four okra studied very hard and finished her homework early every day.

After saying goodbye to hunger, Xiao Wu became a little naughty, but he still finished his homework on time.

April asked Xiao Wu, "Why don't you go to Li Fuzi's private school to study?" With Li Fuzi in charge, there will be growth. After you learn it, come back and teach Xiaosi and me. ”

There's no way around it.

She read a few books and learned some words. I have never systematically studied the articles of the sages, for fear that I will teach the wrong ones and delay the four and five children.

There was longing in the eyes of the little four okra, but she suppressed her longing. She is a girl, and Master Li does not accept female students. It's already very satisfying to be able to follow Xiao Wu to study.

Xiao Wu Manchu was reluctant to do so, "Isn't the third sister willing to teach me?" Is it because I'm too stupid? ”

"Of course not. It's because my level is limited, and continuing to teach will only delay you. Moreover, I also want to learn from Professor Li Fuzi's knowledge. Little Five, are you willing to help us? We can't be Li Fuzi's students, we can only rely on your help to 'steal' from Li Fuzi. ”

Xiao Wu suddenly felt that he had a great responsibility.

He patted his chest, like a little man, "Third sister and fourth sister, don't worry, this matter is on me." I must have squeezed all the ink out of Mr. Li's stomach. ”

Hahaha......

April burst out laughing. Immediately afterwards, the little four and five also laughed.

Xiao Si Okra said: "It's really unashamed, and I dare to squeeze the ink in Master Li's stomach." You should understand what Master Li said first. ”

Without Yuan Li's discussion, April made a decision alone and sent Xiao Wu to study at a private school.

After Yuan Li learned about this, she had no opinion, "Study well!" The family has money, and it is right to think of letting Xiao Wu go to school. If Xiao Wu can read the famous hall and get recommended, our family will be truly prosperous. ”

"Whether or not you can be recommended to work in the government is a matter of the future, and no one can say for sure. The key is that you can read sensibly and are not afraid of being coaxed. April said softly.

"Either way, reading is a good thing."

Yuan Li knew that there were many secrets about her daughter, but she never asked. She couldn't afford to support her family, so she tried not to make trouble for April.

For example, April was able to read and write, and she found it incredible when she found out. But she never showed any suspicions. The good days now are not easy to come by, and they are like castles in the air.

She was afraid that as soon as she said it, her current good days would be gone.

It's as if her daughter got the guidance of the gods in her dreams. That's what she's always reminded herself. Hinting again and again, she seemed to have believed all this in her heart.

The girl who got the guidance of the gods made a decision that must not be wrong.
