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

Chapter 96: Hidden Wealth in the Mountains

"Grandma, you need soybeans to make tofu, and I don't think we have any at home!"

I have to sigh that there are really rich edible things in this world. Bai Qingyun has planted many kinds of things in his space.

Just taking the staple foods as an example, there are rice, brown rice, glutinous rice, black rice, millet, etc., not to mention the variety of vegetables. Although introduced vegetables such as tomatoes and peppers have not yet been promoted, there are still many kinds of vegetables available.

With so many species, there will always be some that slip through the net.

Soybean is one of them.

Xie Shuer didn't know the secret of Bai Qingyun's space, so naturally she couldn't understand the implication of Bai Qingyun's words.

But the others present knew it clearly.

Bai's mother pointed to a bag at the bottom of the car and said to Bai Qingyun: "We don't have it at home, but we have already bought it."

After saying that, he added meaningfully, "We didn't have room to grow this stuff in previous years, so we bought a little more this year and will try to grow some next year! We don't need to grow too much, just enough for the family to eat!"

Bai Qingyun naturally understood what his mother said. He knew that there was nothing in your space, so your family had already bought them. Not only that, they also bought some more as seeds. If you want to plant them in the space, you can do so.

Bai Qingyun has a different opinion on whether this kind of thing should be more or less.

As the old saying goes, soybeans are full of treasures. Take the process of making tofu as an example. Just grinding the soy milk can become a classic drink on the breakfast table.

After heating the filtered soy milk, a thick film will form on the surface. This is the yuba that we usually eat. However, in the era of pure manual production, the craft of yuba was difficult to develop on a large scale, and only people who sold tofu would have a little bit at home.

It seems that no one has studied how to eat this thing. After removing the membrane, it will not be dried, but fed to chickens and ducks together with the filtered tofu dregs.

After the soy milk is fully boiled, add the brine and let it sit for a while. A bowl of fresh tofu pudding is ready. If you like sweet tofu pudding, simply add some sugar and you can enjoy a bowl of fresh tofu pudding.

After the tofu pudding has been left to stand for a while, it is pressed into shape with a heavy object to drain out the moisture inside, and the tofu is now formed.

Not only can soybeans be eaten in a variety of ways, but they are also very nutritious. The high-quality protein in them has become one of the main sources of protein for vegetarians.

With such good food, the more the better!

There is no need to worry about these things piling up in the warehouse. With the chef robot, Bai Qingyun can directly set the program and input various cooking methods of soybeans into the program. No matter what he wants to eat in the future, he can just set it with one click and it will be quickly prepared for Bai Qingyun.

When you want to eat yuba, it is a good choice to enrich the dishes for your family in this way.

"Dad, winter is coming soon. Should we store more firewood at home?"

Whether it is making tofu, fried meatballs or steamed glutinous rice, a large amount of firewood is needed on a large stove. The firewood at home has been almost used up when making autumn pear paste, and this is still the firewood that the villagers come to help buy from time to time.

Before, the family’s firewood was all chopped by Bai’s father on the mountain by himself, and Grandpa Bai often went to the bamboo forest to pick up some dry bamboo. Calculating the time, it seems that the family hasn’t been up the mountain for a long time.

In winter, not only does cooking require firewood, but even heating the kang requires a lot of firewood. It's okay during the day, because the stove and the kang are connected, so the kang will be warm after cooking. But it's different at night, because you have to add some firewood to heat the kang, so that it can last longer.

If there are many people in the family, you can just burn firewood in one room during the day, but when you go back to your room to sleep at night, even if you want to save firewood and squeeze several people into one room, you still need some.

When heavy snow blocks the mountain roads, it will be inconvenient to go up the mountain.

Therefore, in addition to stocking up on New Year's goods, the most important task for the people at this time is to go up the mountain to chop firewood to prepare for a warmer winter.

Manual firewood cutting also requires selection. Those thick trees cannot be cut down by oneself unless several people work together.

Therefore, when people go into the mountains to chop firewood, they usually chop small trees, or branches that have fallen from large trees due to age. Ordinary children or women who are not strong enough would pick up branches on the road and take them back to burn.

This is easy for people living in the villages, but for those living in towns or counties, every resource of life needs to be purchased with gold and silver.

Some idle laborers at home would choose to go to the distant mountains and forests to collect some firewood for daily use, but such cases are rare after all, and the efficiency is not high and cannot meet the family's living needs.

This gave rise to a distinctive profession, that of firewood seller or charcoal seller.

Generally, people engaged in this industry are elderly people. The income from this profession is low and it requires a lot of hard work, which cannot meet the needs of young people to support their families. Only some old farmers who work at home will choose to use this method to increase their income during the slack season.

But whether it is firewood or charcoal, neither is Bai Qingyun's best choice.

Coal, as a resource with simple mixing ratio, low cost and higher combustion performance, was quite favored by Bai Qingyun at this time.

In a place backed by mountains, the resources in the mountains cannot be simply seen with the naked eye, just like the gold mine discovered after going up the mountain last time, there are far more things hidden underground than what we know.

The technology of that era was limited, and even if mineral deposits were discovered in the mountains, they had to be dug manually.

But this also shows that the backward excavation technology has allowed those mountains to contain primitive treasures. In Bai Qingyun's eyes, the entire mountain is a treasure mountain standing here.

It is invisible to the naked eye, so Bai Qingyun needs a machine to help him.

If I remember correctly, the trading plaza of the Plane Mall is about to open.

On that day, plane merchants from all over the world could come to the square regardless of the plane barriers. There were many ways to trade, including bartering, using plane coins, or giving directly to the right person.

Bai Qingyun has no research on this type of machine. Many things in the research institute in the space are used for space production, and there is indeed nothing that can be used to discover mineral deposits.

When your knowledge is limited, you need to broaden your horizons.

The Plane Trading Square is a good opportunity.

It's not just about looking for such a machine, it would also be nice to take a look at other planes. Moreover, this is the first time I have participated in such a large-scale event since I got the plane trading system.

It is equivalent to the important days of the Chinese New Year and other festivals.
