After rebirth, I went from a peasant girl to the richest man

The family listened to Mr. Bai's description and were very satisfied with his careful arrangements. The family had extra money from selling the Ganoderma lucidum and could support three children in the family. However, if they wanted to support them for a long time, they had to have a stable livelihood. Relying on the two acres of good farmland at home, it would be difficult for them to support the scholar, let alone the family.

Bai Qingyun knew the family's concerns and said, "Grandma, I have many recipes for cooking fish. If I make these delicacies, will many people want to eat them?"

Bai Qingyun's words reminded Grandma Bai: "Yes, in the past, people were afraid of the fishy smell, so when they were hungry, they rarely ate fish, even if they ate wild vegetables. Now there is a way to get rid of the fishy smell, and ordinary people who can't afford to buy fish can go to the creek and catch a few!"

"We catch a lot of fish during the day, so I'll teach grandma how to cook a few fish dishes at night. Once she learns, we'll go to town and see if we can sell the recipes!"

Grandma Bai couldn't help but wonder, "Little one, since we have learned the recipes ourselves, why don't we set up a stall or rent a shop to open a small restaurant, so that our family can have a more stable income?"

"Grandma, if we cook this dish, it will definitely be famous in the town, but after all, there is more than one restaurant. If we have more people, there will be fewer people from other places. We will end up offending some noble people and the loss will outweigh the gain. After all, our family is weak and it is difficult to keep this recipe. It is better to sell it directly and accumulate some connections. I have many more recipes in my mind, and I don't mind just one or two. When my brothers have achieved fame and the family has accumulated some money, it won't be too late to open a bigger restaurant." Bai Qingyun simply told his family about his plan in detail so that his family would understand his actions in the future.

Grandpa Bai was also well-informed when he was young. After listening to his granddaughter's statement, he nodded in agreement: "Youngest, you are right. Our town is not big. Although there are many small restaurants, the largest restaurants are only Hongyunlou and Zhiweixuan. I heard that the latter one is owned by the wife of the county magistrate, and the other one is owned by a wealthy family. I heard that the wealthy family is a distant relative of an official in the capital. No matter which family it is, we can't afford to offend them."

Father Bai nodded in agreement and said, "Not bad, the youngest one is the most thoughtful!" The three brothers of the Bai family looked at each other, and there was determination in their eyes. They knew in their hearts that only if they studied hard and passed the imperial examinations, would the family have real support.

Bai's mother also agreed, but her mother-in-law wanted to open a restaurant out of her own interest and wanted to contribute to the family. Now she had to put it on hold. Bai's mother also comforted her considerately: "It's a good opportunity for mother to learn a few more dishes from the youngest son. We can enjoy the food first and be mother's first batch of customers."

Grandma Bai knew the reason and said, "Okay, then let's have a fish feast tonight~"

Bai Qinghai is a lively person, so he has no problem livening up the atmosphere: "Then I'll go catch a few more fish for the fish feast tonight!"

The family arranged their afternoon work. Father Bai and Bai Qingshan were strong, so they went into the mountains to cut bamboo. Grandpa Bai took the brothers Bai Qinghu and Bai Qinghai to weave bamboo baskets at home. They would weave more in the afternoon before dark, put them in the river at night, and pick them up at dawn the next day.

Bai Qingyun took Grandma Bai and Mother Bai to the foot of the mountain to dig some more wild ginger. There happened to be some pig offal at home that had not been processed. However, the pig offal had a strong smell, and ginger alone was far from enough to remove the fishy smell, so they had to find some spices.

The last time I went into the mountains, I saw a lot of spices in the mountains, but ordinary people didn’t know them and couldn’t use them to fill their stomachs. There were a lot of these in the mountains, and they could be seen almost everywhere.

When Bai Qingyun brought Grandma Bai and Mother Bai to the place where wild ginger grew, he saw several pepper trees nearby. It was the season when peppercorns were ripe. A large pepper tree had green and red fruits that cracked with a light pinch. There were also several small pepper trees nearby, all growing well.

Bai Qingyun dug out the two smallest pepper trees without having to avoid the two people present. After all, the two people present knew the secret of the space. He put them directly into the space and told the system to plant one of them in an open space. Bai Qingyun planned to plant the other one in the backyard of his home. The backyard of his home had a large space, and peppercorns were also a frequently used condiment. If they were planted in the backyard, he could pick them directly when needed.

After doing all this, Grandma Bai and her mother had already dug out the wild ginger in this area and filled a whole bamboo basket. Grandma Bai and her mother were the ones who often cooked at home, so Bai Qingyun took them to the edge of the mountain to learn about some medicinal herbs and spices while picking them.

Along the way, he picked a lot of peppercorns, bay leaves, star anise and other spices, which were just right for making stewed food. Even more fortunately, when Bai Qingyun was about to go down the mountain, he found a fairy tree and a bunch of mint, which were good things to relieve the heat in summer. Bai Qingyun happily picked up the shovel and started digging.

While digging, he said, "Grandma, Mom, this is mint. Mint not only has the effect of repelling insects, but mint leaves can also relieve summer heat when used to soak in water. Let's dig these up and plant them around our yard. It can also repel mosquitoes in the summer."

When the two heard this, they also picked up shovels and started digging. After all, they had both been bitten by mosquitoes. It was okay for men, but if women were bitten by mosquitoes, not only would they feel uncomfortable, but their appearance would also be easily ruined. Now that they heard that it could prevent mosquitoes, they wanted to bring all the mint from the mountain back home and plant it in the yard.

When the three of them finished digging the mint in this area, they saw Father Bai carrying a hoe and going up the mountain to look for someone. "I said I was just digging some yellow bumps, why haven't you come back in so long? So you're digging these green leaves here!"

"Dad, you came just in time. This is called the Fairy Tree. I found it just outside the mountain. We can use the leaves of this tree to make fairy tofu. It is refreshing and thirst-quenching in summer. The method is also simple. We can make it and sell it for money. We can just dig it up and take it home, which will make it more convenient to pick next time." Bai Qingyun said, pointing to the fairy tree not far away.

Father Bai always obeyed his daughter's request. After listening, he picked up the tools and started digging along the tree roots. The tree was not small. Seeing that the mint had been dug almost, the others also picked up tools to help. Bai Qingyun carried the wild ginger and mint he dug down the mountain and asked the three brothers of the Bai family to help carry the tree. If it was usually transported by space, it would be nothing, but a big tree suddenly appeared in the house. It was difficult to explain to the three brothers of the Bai family and the neighbors who came to visit, so he had to make an extra trip.

Fortunately, the leaves were not particularly large, and the Bai family had many male members, all of whom were farmers, so they quickly dug up the magical tree and brought it home in a short time.
