Siheyuan: The strongest point adding system is bound at the beginning

"How was your business trip? Did you buy any food?" Chen Xueru asked after Liu Ping'an returned to the house and sat down.

Liu Ping'an was also convinced. Why did everyone ask him how much food he had brought back from this business trip? But he changed his mind and realized that it was indeed his own problem. A full man does not know the hunger of a hungry man. He was in charge of the farm, so he was not worried. But everyone was busy trying to fill their stomachs.

"From what you said, it's definitely not a complete failure. I did buy some, but I don't know the exact amount. I went to the Northeast for other missions this time."

Liu Ping'an has decided not to get involved in this grain issue. Everything was fine when he went there, but when he came back, he didn't expect that times had changed and someone actually dared to covet this batch of grain.

Yes, if there is a 50% profit, some people will take the risk; if there is a 100% profit, they will dare to trample on all human laws; if there is a 300% profit, some people will dare to take the risk of going to the gallows.

Liu Ping'an had no idea how much food was worth on the black market. Although he had more food than he could eat, he had never thought of selling it on the black market. Although this could help many people who had no food to eat, he forgot that there was only one disease in the world that could not be cured, and that was poverty.

There is no way, society has developed to this point, and this is not something that can be decided by one person. But this is the world created by all of us, and we still have a long way to go.

Liu Ping'an has always believed that no matter how technology develops, its ultimate purpose is to serve the people, the majority of the people, rather than those vested interests, otherwise the next cycle will begin over time.

"Is it cold in the Northeast? Is there really so much food there that we can't eat it all?" Then Chen Xueru, like a curious baby, kept asking Liu Ping'an about what was happening outside.

Nowadays, people who have been out of the province are considered to have seen the world. The knowledge gained from traveling thousands of miles is not exaggerated. If you teach something, you will learn it once. If people teach people, they will never be able to learn. Otherwise, there would not be so few college students every year.

Many people never step out of their own circle throughout their entire lives. If Wen San were to go on a business trip, he would probably brag about it for a long time.

However, the problem he had to face at this moment was still his wife's series of problems. In the end, Liu Ping'an had no choice but to say, "I'll take you with me when I have the chance in the future."

There is no other way. I chose this wife myself, so I have to deal with her no matter how difficult it is. Besides, she is pregnant now.

The sun quietly went down as the three of them chatted. When Liu Ping'an went out again, the sky had gradually darkened. Smoke had already risen from many houses, and they had started their dinner.

In fact, one of the reasons why the rural families are still united is firewood. The family eats from the same pot, and only one or two people need to go to the kitchen. Everyone has more time to work hard on their own farmland, which is more efficient.

But when it comes to the final division of the family, there are so many melodramatic plots, not much worse than Aunt Qiong Yao's novels. To sum up, it is often biased towards the eldest or the youngest.

Cooking in the city has become even more of a problem now. Not to mention firewood, everyone buys it. As early as the Zhu family of the Ming Dynasty, the city had already started burning coal from the Western Hills. It is still the same now, but most of it is brought in by train.

How to cook is a problem. Liu Ping'an's family is relatively wealthy, and each of his three houses has a separate stove. But for people who live in one house, the cooking tools are simple, just a stove, or a simple iron rack on which they can put a pot to cook.

But things are better now. The baton of firewood for households in the old city has been passed to honeycomb briquettes. Until the later popularization of gas stoves, this small honeycomb briquettes have been responsible for the firewood burning in every household.

One piece of honeycomb coal is enough for almost every meal, which is very affordable and convenient. However, not every family can afford it. Most people still use fire pits. Honeycomb coal did not officially occupy the fuel market in urban kitchens until the reform and opening up.

Liu Pingan set up a honeycomb coal stove in the living room outside his and Chen Xueru's room, and stewed all the food in it. Liu Pingan prepared the seasoning packets himself, which he would not tell his wife about, and could only pass on to his son in the future.

Even if this kid is not very ambitious, he can still live a comfortable life with this seasoning package, and it can be passed down from generation to generation. The truly stable business is always the four major businesses of food, clothing, housing and transportation. The most stable one is the "food" business, but the most difficult to expand and strengthen is the "eating" business.

Otherwise, Xu Huizhen would not have agreed to take care of her best friend for so long just because of Liu Ping'an's wine recipe. They are all adults and can't just do it for free.

Thinking of this, Liu Pingan also felt a little hungry, so he turned around and headed towards the honeycomb coal stove. However, after turning around for a long time, he still didn't see the stove or the pot of stew, and he didn't smell the aroma of the stew at all.

Liu Pingan frowned, thinking that the two of them had moved the stove to the kitchen. Then he scanned with his mental power and found the honeycomb coal stove in the kitchen, but it was already cold, and the pot of braised meat was washed clean and placed aside.

Seeing this, Liu Ping'an was immediately furious. The longer the braised pork soup is used, the better. This pot of braised pork soup that he had had for more than three years was not worth any money if it were kept until now.

I was careless. I didn't expect that I would miss so many things in just half a month of business trip. It really proves that God doesn't follow one's wishes. Not everyone can be chased by God and fed. Obviously, I am not the one who is chased by God and fed.

Alas, thousands of words are reduced to this one word. Life is indeed not just a casual talk. Even Tao Yuanming often bowed his head for five pecks of rice. Otherwise, you should just live in seclusion and not become an official! In the Hongwu Emperor period, you would be buried.

There is no other way. Even if I choose a wife, she cannot cook. I still have to live my life from now on. I just don't know when this life will end. I didn't come through time to be a slave.
