Chief Wu Ting said happily: "Everyone who has made money from you has gone to the county to buy wheat seeds. As long as God rewards us this year, our lives will be much easier."

It has been more than a month since I settled in Dongsheng Town. The most common grain here is sorghum. At this time, people call it red grain and it is people’s staple food. The texture in your mouth is really rough and rough. There are almost no such grains in modern times.

When people eat it, it is used as livestock food.

Ji Rongjin feels rough when she thinks about it. For more than a month, she has been eating millet. Millet is small in quantity and tastes better than sorghum. It is very expensive. It is rare for ordinary people to eat it. She has no choice but to rest on her laurels now.

Hearing Mr. Wu Ting talk about planting wheat, I was very happy. He even reminded me, "Buy some more rice seeds, and you can eat rice in the fall."

With rice and noodles, wouldn’t Wo Dong’s little life be a happy one?

"What?" Wu Tingzhang didn't seem to understand what she said.

"Rice!" Northeastern rice is famous all over the world, they don't know it!

It was not until many days later that Ji Rongjin learned that there was no rice growing at all in the Yidong area at this time. Even if there was rice, it was upland rice. The locals called it Jingzi, and the milled rice was called japonica rice. It could only be planted on dry land, and the plant height was not high.

If it exceeds one meter, the growth period is relatively short and the yield is very low, but the japonica rice processed from this kind of japonica is very delicious.

But at this time, the common people did not even have enough to eat, so they dared to indulge their appetites. Only landlords and wealthy families were willing to grow this kind of low-yielding upland rice for their own consumption.

Ji Rongjin learned that the main crop at this time was red grain (sorghum), followed by millet. If the year was good, planting a field of wheat would be the best situation.

"But I see that every household has a lot of soybeans. Isn't it a staple food?"

"That's right!" Chief Wu Ting said nonchalantly, "Every household will find a lot of wild land and forests to plant in order to prepare for disasters or to feed their livestock."

"Don't you use it to make tofu?"

"Alas!" When talking about this, Chief Wu Ting became sad. "Our town once funded people to go to the south to learn how to make tofu. Unexpectedly, Kuai San didn't come back to the county after learning the craft, leaving our town with no tofu."

I can’t even eat it.”

Ji Rongjin then remembered that the proliferation of knowledge on the modern Internet was simply a bible that was beyond the reach of the ancients.

"I will do it." After thinking about it, she said.

"..." Chang Wu Ting, who was so drunk, seemed to suddenly wake up, "Really?"

Ji Rongjin nodded, "However, if there is one thing, I can't make it without it."

"What is it?" Wu Tingchang stopped drinking and stared at the little lady who looked like a fairy with his two bright eyes.

"Put some tofu in brine, and one thing will be reduced. Have you never heard of it?"

Wu Tingchang shook his head.

"Gypsum will work too."

The tofu ordered with brine is relatively older than the tofu ordered with plaster. It is what we usually call old tofu and tender tofu. However, relatively speaking, the tofu ordered with brine has more bean flavor and is closer to the true taste.

"Gypsum is medicine, I know, but can it be used to make tofu?" Wu Tingchang felt incredible.

No, wait a minute, there seems to be a distinction between raw and cooked plaster. "Tofu makers should use plaster of paris."

"Okay, okay, if it's cooked, it's cooked." Wu Tingzhang didn't even drink the wine and stood up quickly, "I'll go to the county town to buy plaster of paris tomorrow morning." As he said that, he walked out the door without forgetting to look back, "

After you buy it, you can make a pot for us."

"..." Ji Rongjin blinked. Her original intention was to buy some beans to make dried tofu skin. This thing is cheap, affordable and easy to store. It is more suitable for the people here. Why did it change to tofu?

To her, tofu is too common. Besides, it is difficult to store and transport. It is not conducive to scale. Without scale, how can you make money?

Wheat had to be planted and tofu was also arranged. Ji Rongjin refused to refuse anyone who came. She pawned her gold bracelet to buy several acres of land to grow wheat and upland rice. She also used her tofu skills to buy people who would help her farm.

Because of this, Mai Xiaoji was still angry with her, saying that he wanted to plant the fields and save money.

Why would Ji Rongjin let him do it? She trained him as a steward, and she was still waiting for him to run errands and lead people to make a lot of money!

May has passed amidst the busy schedule, and the wheat seedlings in the fields are sucking the rain and growing upward.

The lean season has arrived, and people haven't finished their meal. The mountains are now lush and green, and they are full of things. But not many people dare to go up the mountain. There are many wild beasts inside. Ji Rongjin saw wild boars running down the mountain with his own eyes.

If it weren't for the arrow in Mai Xiaoji's hand, a child would almost be bitten to death.

Only then did Ji Rongjin get scared. It was a miracle that he didn't encounter a wild beast when he climbed from the snow-covered mountain in March.

The wild boar running down the mountain encountered Mai Xiaoji, who had a bow and arrow. It was considered unlucky. After being shot to death, Ji Rongjin asked Wu Tingzhang to find a butcher to kill it. Half of it was given to the people in the town, and the other half was taken by her and Mai Xiaoji.

Go to the county town to sell money.

Linchun County is quite far away from Dongsheng Town, more than a hundred miles away. Whether on foot or by oxcart, one has to start before dawn and arrive at six or seven o'clock in the evening. Generally, one has to spend the night outside the city and wait for the next day.

We can only enter the city early in the morning.

Linchun County is more prosperous than Dongsheng Town. There are two main streets and several small streets. Although the shops and houses on the streets are dusty and old, they are tall and have some charm.

Ji Rongjin and his party brought half a wild boar over, and of course they took a bullock cart from the town. As soon as they arrived in the county town, Mr. Situ set up a stall at the street corner, and even said that he would come here every now and then to make money to support himself.

This is the responsibility that an adult should take. Ji Rongjin had nothing to say for a while. It wasn't until she took a few steps that she realized, "I want to hire Mr. Accountant?" She turned back and stood in front of his stall.

Situ sat on a small stool and raised his head: "Then Situ will wait until Miss Ji's business is completed."

"..." In the end, Ji Rongjin really couldn't speak. Well, let's wait until the business is done.

After walking around Linchun County and getting to know the basic situation, Ji Rongjin paid five cents to set up a stall at the food market entrance.

To modern people, wild pork must be snatched up, but to ancient people, domestic livestock are equally delicious, and they even don't like to eat wild animals because of their strong smell.

Ji Rongjin overheard this when the residents of Dongsheng Town whispered, so when she came to the county town by bullock cart, she brought a set of utensils. She braised pig faces and tails at the street corner, and braised the trotters in another pot.

, the fragrance is wafting, attracting people to watch, three floors inside and three floors outside.

"Don't miss it if you pass by it. Dear fellow villagers, take a look and pay for it."

Everyone was drooling at the hawking voice of the little lady with yellow skin but a pretty face.

"How to sell it?" Some people couldn't help it.
