Crossing the Qinghe Landlord gl

There is still more than half a month before the winter solstice, but Xia Ji Niang prepared some festival gifts for the hired workers in advance, hoping that they will have a good festival.In addition to a pot of homemade wine, the prepared gifts include a few catties of preserved wax and ten catties of rice noodles. The rice noodles are ground by black donkeys. After several complicated processes, Xia Jiniang made strips and dried them. Liu Dashan's family of five ate two meals.

Liu Dashan and his wife went to get it with three other hired workers, and everyone was overjoyed that these gifts were actually held in their hands.Liu Dashan and his wife had been helping for a long time, so Xia Jiniang gave an extra jug of wine and two catties of preserved meat.Although the other three are greedy, they also understand that the longer they work here, the more benefits they will get.

After receiving their wages and gifts, they worked harder when collecting potatoes.Seeing that there were not many bamboo baskets left in the Zhang family, Mrs. Song helped Zhang He weave a few. When they packed the potatoes, they filled more than a dozen baskets full, and this was only a quarter of it!

Xia Jiniang was also frightened by so many potatoes. These 20 baskets had already taken up the rest of the warehouse space, so where could the remaining three-quarters be placed?

Zhang He said: "The family is so big, and there are so many vacant houses, so let's put it there for now!" She calculated, and two mu of land has more than 3000 kilograms. Because the fertilizer can't keep up, it can't produce two or three mu of land as the future generations. As much as a thousand kilograms.

Nearly [-] kilograms were collected and put into the system warehouse, and at least two-thirds of the remaining will be reserved for spring potato seeds, and Zhang He still needs to find a way to use the remaining one-third.

First, she asked Ma Bingshan, the hired worker, to send five baskets to Mrs. Liu, along with the planting instructions she had copied. These five baskets were enough for Mrs. Liu to plant two acres.And she didn't forget the appointment with Tong Liyu, she planned to send it there in person, but Tong Liyu sent someone here, and this person happened to be his brother-in-law Sun Ning.

Although Zhang He had been to Sun Ning's main store a few times, he had never seen the owner, after all he rarely appeared in Sun Ning's main store.But Tong Liyu asked him to come, which was beyond Zhang He's expectation.

Sun Ning was more low-key than Zhang He imagined. When he came, he just drove an ordinary carriage, and there was only one servant driving the carriage beside him. He was dressed like Tsing Yi when he was traveling.However, judging from the way he runs Sun Ning Zhengdian, it is not low-key at all.

Sun Ning said with a smile: "The officials wanted to send Zaoli from the yamen, but they thought it would be too conspicuous, so they entrusted me to do this."

Tong Liyu's meeting with Zhang He and Liu Canjun was a secret, if he suddenly sent someone to look for Zhang He, people would be suspicious.Therefore, it is most appropriate to let Sun Ning come. After all, the silver eggplants in Sun Ning's main store were supplied by Zhang He, so he can use the excuse of doing business this time.

Tong Liyu did this because she didn't want Zhang He to be involved in the conspiracy of the officialdom. After all, apart from being Zhang Tingxuan's nephew, she was just an ordinary person.

It happened that Sun Ning was also very interested in hearing about potatoes, so he came here in a low-key manner.When he saw potatoes for the first time, he thought it was a novelty, so he asked, "How to eat this?"

"It can be steamed, fried or fried..." Zhang He told her about the many ways to eat potatoes that she knew. Sun Ning's eyes lit up when he heard it, and he thought of how to attract new customers to his main store. !

"How does it taste?" He couldn't wait to try the taste. If the taste was good, he would make a big deal with Zhang He anyway.

Zhang He smiled and said, "It just so happens that potatoes are eaten at home today. If Mr. Sun doesn't mind, you can have a drink with me." She thought to herself that if Sun Ning had tasted potatoes, he would decide to serve them as a dish It is also a good thing to let more people know.

Just as Sun Ning had this intention, he began to look forward to it.Xia Jiniang made several potato dishes, including fried potato shreds, braised potato slices, potato roast meat, and egg potato pancakes.Most of these are the eating methods in Zhang He's memory, but now Xia Jiniang and Zhang Xian are used to it, but it is still very new to Sun Ning.

Sun Ning was a little moved. He didn't expect Zhang He to value him so much that he asked Xia Jiniang to prepare six dishes including four potato dishes.When Xia Jiniang heard this, she was also embarrassed to say that she didn't want to make so many potatoes, but there were too many potatoes at home, and she was worried that if she didn't eat them, they would grow sprouts, and she couldn't eat them anymore!

Zhang He didn't tell Xia Jiniang that the potatoes could be stored longer in winter, and that she could replace some of the potatoes that had been left unused for a long time with the ones in the system warehouse, so that they could be stored for another half of the time.

The potatoes were made by Xia Jiniang. Although the taste lacks some modern ingredients, it is no problem for today's people.Zhang He is also used to the days without chili and soy sauce, because even if there is no soy sauce, the sauce used in today's cooking is very delicious in terms of seasoning.

When the potatoes entered Sun Ning's mouth, he seemed to have opened a new door. Although the sauce was rich in taste, it did not prevent him from tasting a strange but soft taste.He praised Zhang He: "Ling Hu is good at cooking!"

Xia Jiniang heard him praise herself, and said modestly: "It's just some home-cooked dishes, it's hard to be elegant."

"Mistress Xia is too modest." Sun Ning said, took a few bites as soon as he spoke, and then put down his chopsticks in satisfaction.

After Sun Ning put down the chopsticks, Zhang He and Xia Jiniang put down the chopsticks.In fact, their appetites are relatively small, but it is impolite for them to put down their chopsticks before the guests have finished eating, so they are always by the side.

After tasting the potatoes, Sun Ning asked Xia Jiniang how to cook some potatoes, but he had never cooked and couldn't remember, so he had the cheek to ask Xia Jiniang to teach their cooks at Sun Ning Zhengdian.Right now, Zhang He and Xia Jiniang have no airs, and he can still please him. He is afraid that Xia Jiniang will think that this is a self-deprecation in the future.

But he didn't let Xia Jiniang teach for nothing, the price was that he had to buy a lot of potatoes from Zhang He at a price that was higher than what Zhang He thought.

For him, these potatoes are only beneficial and have no disadvantages, not to mention that he, who is picky, finds them delicious after tasting them. Even if he can't sell them, he can plant them for Tong Liyu.And the money given to Zhang He was nothing at all.

In this way, 300-[-]% of Zhang He's potatoes were settled, and he also got money from Liu Shi, Tong Liyu, Sun Ning and others.For the remaining [-] kilograms, she generously distributed a few kilograms to the hired workers, and sold some to Zhang Baozhang and others.

Zhang He didn't have to give it to the Li family, because Li Qingshi and her planted it at the same time, and they dug them out not long ago, and there was no place to store those potatoes at home.Li Qingshi was delighted and had mixed feelings. He had persuaded Zhang He that he didn't need to spend his time on this aspect, but now he was embarrassing himself.

Aunt Li didn't know his mood, and said cheerfully: "Brother Lu is also an educated man, he has seen a lot and is knowledgeable, it is always right to learn from him!"

Li Qingshi sighed, it turns out that his mother's vision is better than his!

For the first time, Sun Ning brought back a basket of potatoes from Zhang He, and asked the cook to let them try to cook with potatoes first.However, these cooks have never seen this thing before, and they don't know how to extract its flavor without reservation, so they encountered difficulties all at once.

Some people suggested cooking it in the way of taro. After Sun Ning tasted it, although the taste was good, it was not the effect he wanted.In the end, he really couldn't stand it anymore, so he asked someone to invite Zhang He and Xia Jiniang over.

After Zhang He pondered the steering device of the carriage for more than a month, he finally let her complete the preliminary splicing with the carriage, and the next step was to sit on it and try the effect.But at first she didn't dare to try it with a horse, and used a black donkey that was neither fast nor slow.

She got the black donkey out of the system, and it is very docile and obedient almost without her training, so she guessed it might be because of the system.For this reason, she deliberately bought an inferior horse with a coat color similar to the horses in the system, in order to be able to unknowingly sell the inferior horse and replace it with a system horse.

The front wheels need to be steered, so they need to be smaller than the rear wheels. At the same time, in order to adapt to the carriage with the front wheels, Zhang He even slightly adjusted the shaft, which made her car look longer.

She first took the black donkey for a few laps, deliberately picking the corners to check if there was any problem with the steering device.However, she has tried many times before this, and she has improved everything that can be improved. At the current slow speed, turning is not a problem.

She boarded the cart again, on which a shock-absorbing bed board had been added, and she could still feel a bit of elasticity after sitting on it.

"Drive!" Zhang He swung his bridle, and the black donkey ran away.

Although there is no difference from usual in a straight line, Zhang He can feel that his balance has improved when turning, and he will not feel vaguely about to be thrown out of the car.

Immediately, a sense of pride welled up in her heart, she ran for a while with the donkey cart, and then went home to find Xia Jiniang, letting her feel it too.Originally, she was worried about any accidents, so she took a test drive by herself first. After confirming that there was no problem, she naturally let Xia Jiniang experience her modified donkey cart with confidence!

It just so happened that it was another date to make an appointment with Sun Ning, Xia Jiniang said, "Then how about going to Mount Efeng like this?"

"Okay, Niang Ji, go back and prepare first, I'll replace it with a horse!"

Xia Jiniang had nothing to prepare, she had seen Zhang He thinking about the carriage.At that time, Zhang He seemed to be immersed in another world, focused and serious, which made her discover a new side of Zhang He, and at the same time, she was even more attracted to her.

Zhang He noticed that Xia Jiniang was staring at him, and he was terrified: "What, what's wrong?"

"It's nothing, I just feel that Erlang is here, it's good."

Zhang He was pleased by her thoughtless praise, but he was also a little ashamed.Just as she fixed the carriage, she reached out and pulled her over, changed the subject, and said, "I tried this bed board, and it's quite comfortable."

Xia Jiniang had already tried this bed board when she first made it, but she didn't know if it could play a good shock absorption effect.Sitting beside Zhang He, she watched the carriage gradually pick up speed, and Zhang He's skillful driving skills made the carriage drive steadily on the official road.

Although I can still feel the shock, it is less than one-fifth of what it used to be. Xia Jiniang said: "This is the most comfortable car I have ever ridden in."

Zhang He proudly said: "Although I have spent so much time in these aspects, it is known as ingenious skills, but if it can relieve our pain when riding in a car, then it is worth it for me to do so."

"I don't think it's a trick, and I support what Erlang did!"

"You support what I do?" Zhang He asked, before Xia Jiniang answered, Zhang He leaned over and kissed her.Xia Jiniang froze for a moment, then looked at her funny and helpless, just now she was thinking how she could be so honest after hearing him praise her, it turned out that she had plotted a long time ago.

The two came to Sun Ning's main store leisurely, but in order to prevent others from mistaking Xia Jiniang for a domestic prostitute in the main store, Sun Ning personally took them to the kitchen in the back hall.

They noticed that Sun Ning placed some potatoes in a conspicuous place in the main store, which aroused many people's curiosity, but when people asked the shop assistants what it was, they refused to answer, and people couldn't help but ask around. The origin of the thing.

After Sun Ning whetted their appetites, he told them that this is a dish, but it is very rare, and I am afraid that no one has tasted this dish.

When everyone heard this, they were even more unconvinced, and they didn't believe that no one in the world had seen or eaten this thing, so they ran around the city to tell the story, so many people came to Sun Ning's main store to watch the potatoes every day.They expressed their conjectures one after another, but Sun Ning, who was very clear about this matter, denied them one by one.

When they became famous enough, Sun Ning informed them that this dish will be served in a few days, and then they will be the first guests to taste this rare dish.

Naturally, they didn't know where this was the first batch of guests to taste. Zhang He and others were already tired of eating.And Sun Ning didn't really treat these guests fairly. There were many rich and famous people who were also very interested, so Sun Ning asked Sun Ning to send them in advance for them to taste, so Sun Ning needed Xia Jiniang to come and teach the cooks more dishes. .

As long as you master the essence, how to reflect the original taste of potatoes and how to season them are all things that can be figured out by those cooks.Xia Jiniang's cooking skills are not much better than theirs, but because she knows how to cook potatoes, she can stand here and teach them.

After teaching a few dishes, Xia Jiniang was a little tired, Sun Ning hurriedly asked them to take them to an elegant room to rest, and even called musicians to play.Although Xia Jiniang is a woman, this is not a place where women from good families can't come to. On weekdays, there are still some women who come down from Mount Efeng to come here to rest.As for the sexual pleasure between men and women, it is after the night.

Zhang He was a little anxious, seeing that Xia Jiniang had finally rested, he went to the latrine first.Sitting alone in the elegant room, Xia Jiniang heard the door open and thought it was Zhang He who came back, but it was a musician arranged by Sun Ning who came in.

Xia Jiniang saw that the maid next to one of the musicians looked familiar, and after thinking about it for a while, she remembered, isn't that the girl who delivered the message for Jiang Nu?She shifted her gaze to the woman next to her: Could it be that this is Jiang Nu?
