Just as he was about to start the meal, Wen Zhuqing took Jing Ming to bring him home chicken and mushroom stew.

"Have you eaten? If you haven't eaten it, let's eat some together. Xu Yourong took it and greeted warmly.

"No need aunt, the family is ready, let's go back." Wen Zhuqing replied with a smile.

The chicken was stewed softly, and with a gentle pull, the bones were separated, and seeing Mingzhu swallowing his saliva greedily, Jiang Zhimiao happily took a piece of chicken from the bowl and fed it.

"Don't don't, don't leave first, the braised pork was just made at home, you can bring some back to Aunt Wen and them to taste in a while." Jiang Zhimiao took out a bowl from the closet and dialed some into the large bowl full of braised pork.

"Here, it's better to be in time than to be in a hurry, it's just out of the pot, it's hot, hurry back and eat it while it's hot." She smiled and handed it over.

Wen Zhuqing took the meat she handed over, and when she looked at it, she saw that the meat was stewed crystal clear, and a lot of effort was wasted at first glance.

"Okay, thank you very much." He looked at her, smiled straight into his eyes, and said in a gentle tone.

After a few words of greeting, Jiang Zhimiao left Jingming to eat, and sent Wen Zhuqing out with a smile.

Wen Zhuqing walked outside the door alone, looking at the crystal clear and evenly sized braised pork in the bowl, and couldn't help but hook the corners of his mouth and laugh.

After being full of water and food, Jiang Zhimiao found a time and went to space, and after being questioned, she decided to use the consciousness body to enter as much as possible.

As soon as he saw the familiar figure, Moo Moo's excited nostrils were steaming, "Eyes! ”

Jiang Zhimiao reluctantly smoothed its fur, and then resigned herself to planting green pasture, in the moo cow and bleating sheep like a soul-like shout, she wiped her sweat, and hummed softly without looking back.

When Jiang Zhimiao came out of the space, Xu Yourong had already hung up all the bedding at home and dried it, and seeing that there were still a lot of them that had not been dried, she quickly got up and helped them dry together.

Seeing her come out, Xu Yourong hurriedly stopped: "Don't don't, this quilt is a little moldy if it hasn't been dried for too long, so don't come over." ”

Jiang Zhimiao was stopped by her as soon as she wanted to get started, she shook her head and lifted the quilt under her reluctant gaze.

Speaking of which, it's been a few months, but the quilt hasn't been dried a few times, mainly because it was either rain or snow some time ago, and the weather is cloudy and sunny, and you can't dry it if you want to.

Finally, the sky is good, but it is about to be the New Year, Jiang Zhimiao sighed in his heart, and increased the strength of slapping the futon.

Xu Yourong looked at the sun above his head, and saw that the sun was really good, and said while basking in the sun: "I didn't expect that this magic effort is going to be the New Year, and the days are really fast." ”

"Who's to say it isn't." Jiang Zhimiao patted the futon, and glanced at the three little ones who were scurrying around with warning, and said with emotion.

There was a knock on the door outside the courtyard, and Jiang Zhimiao's subordinates paused, and opened the door under Xu Yourong's puzzled gaze.

"Sister Miao, this is the remaining twenty yuan." Chun Tao looked up with a smiling face, took out twenty copper plates from his arms and handed them over.

Jiang Zhimiao took it with a smile, turned sideways, and greeted her into the door, "How is the family's business lately?" It's almost the New Year, so there should be a lot of people buying tofu. She said with a pleasantry.

Jiang Zhimiao found that since Chun Tao's family started the tofu business, she has become a lot more confident, and she no longer has the submissive appearance she used to have, exuding vitality from the inside out.

"What's wrong with you? How? Something happened at home? If there is something at home, you should keep the money for emergencies. Seeing that she exuded a sluggish aura all over her body, Jiang Zhimiao was stunned and pushed back the money she had just received.

Chun Tao sighed, lowered her eyes, and said in frustration: "There is nothing wrong at home, it's . . It's just that soybeans can't be bought recently, and the tofu business is afraid that it won't be able to sustain itself. ”

"It's getting warmer, so don't you go anywhere else? There is no Sweetwater Village, maybe other villages will have. Jiang Zhimiao groaned.

Not to mention that it's okay, as soon as she said that Chun Tao's head was almost buried in the ground, she held back the tears in her eyes, and choked up: "Someone in Kugen Village heard that tofu can make money, so they bought all the soybeans from several surrounding villages, and when I went, there was no bean." ”

Jiang Zhimiao was stunned for a moment, and comforted: "Don't be too sad about this, the road of the endless world, maybe you can buy it again in a few days?" I want to open some. She patted her on the shoulder and said in a slower tone.

Chun Tao half-lowered her eyelashes, nodded with a depressed expression, and said lightly: "I hope." She lowered her head and muttered, "If only my family could grow soybeans." ”

She sighed, raised her eyes to look at Jiang Zhimiao and asked, "Sister Miao, you said that my family won't grow wheat next year, how about planting soybeans instead?" ”

After thinking about the feasibility of planting soybeans, Jiang Zhimiao asked, "Did you ever require wheat to be planted in the field in previous years?" ”

Chun Tao shook her head and replied: "No, but the village requires us to pay taxes every season, it doesn't matter what we grow in the field, but the things we pay must be wheat, or it costs money." ”

Jiang Zhimiao stretched her chin and shook her head, she knew that she knew that Wu Changsheng had said this before, but he didn't say that he had to pay it every quarter, good guy, pay it every quarter, how much can you have left in your own hands? This tax is too heavy.

No wonder the people are crying, just this posture, no one is weird, Jiang Zhimiao thought indignantly.

But after all, His Majesty has not stepped down after all, and she still has to pay taxes according to the original standard step by step.

"Since you are determined to do the tofu business to the end, then you should still grow beans, and go to other people's houses to buy them, rather than that, it is better to grow them at home, and the cost can be less."

"Besides, if you make money, whether you go to other houses to buy wheat to deduct taxes or pay money, you can have beans, business can continue, and everything else is easy to say." She proposed.

She had thought about this before, the most important thing to make tofu is beans, once the beans are gone, even if you want to do business, you can't do it, and the extreme north is extremely cold, and it is not easy to go out to harvest beans in the cold winter.

Not to mention that there is another tofu seller in Kugen Village, and he has monopolized all the beans, looking at his posture, I am afraid that it will be a long-term business, and she will endure it for a year, or two years?

Rather than being constrained by others, it is better to achieve self-sufficiency fundamentally, Jiang Zhimiao pulled Chun Tao and said a lot of words, and analyzed all the pros and cons.

"I know, I'm going to talk to my dad." After the words fell, Chun Tao swept away the sluggish state and bent her lips.

"If you know, you are having a hard time now, you still keep the twenty yuan for the New Year, and it will not be too late to pay me back when you are rich." Jiang Zhimiao stuffed the copper plate back and said with a smile.
