After wearing the book, I farmed and raised children and became the emperor

Seeing that Shao Qingyi's mood that had been depressed for a long time finally rose again, the smile on He Changji's face deepened a little.

He suggested: "You can go to the Gao family to customize the soldering iron, and the Cai family can make the seal. Since you want to do this Ping An grocery store for a long time, the seal must be indispensable. In addition, if you want to make Tangram and Huarong Road in large quantities, you can go to Look for Mr. Zheng, although he has no descendants, he has adopted two apprentices and needs carpentry work."

"Okay!" Shao Qingyi became even more excited when she heard the words. He is sitting on the treasure house of Shuiwan Village, and he can find craftsmen for everything he wants. Compared with other people, he already has too strong resources!

Shao Qingyi immediately decided to go to Mr. Zheng to discuss the matter of Huarong Dao and Tangram in the afternoon, and then go to Zhan's family to order food boxes.

By the way, I will go to the Chen family again to see if the Chen family's anger has subsided, or to see if the Chen family man can ignore the past and take over his business...

All of a sudden, Shao Qingyi made a full schedule for the afternoon.

The two children continued to play Huarong Road again, and He Changji also accompanied them and gave them advice.

Seeing this, Shao Qingyi brought out another plate of five-spice dried tofu as a snack for the three of them, while she started busying herself with other things.

He was going to take advantage of this gap to marinate the salted duck eggs.

Shao Qingyi first boiled a pot of water, added salt to the water and kept stirring until the salt could no longer dissolve and reached saturation.

After that, he took out the duck eggs he bought, scrubbed the shell surface of the duck eggs, wiped off the water, and put them aside.Then wash the terracotta jar, and also dry the inner surface with a cloth.

Then, he gently put the washed duck eggs into a clay jar one by one, poured high-concentration wine, and then poured in the cooled concentrated brine until the egg surface was covered.

Next is the sealing process.

He took out a few pieces of white gauze, covered the mouth of the altar, and then sealed it with yellow mud.

In this way, put this clay jar for another [-] days, and the salted duck eggs that are soft and oily will be ready.

After finishing the work, it was time for lunch.

After thinking about it, Shao Qingyi was going to make curry rice.

The amount of curry powder he bought was not large enough to be sold as a commodity, so he might as well just feed it to his family.

Common curry rice is served with potato cubes, chicken breast, carrots and onions, but Shao Qingyi doesn't have any of these ingredients.

So he had to find another way and make a vegetarian pork chop curry rice.

The first is to make vegetarian pork chops.

The vegetarian meat used in many vegetarian dishes is soy products, but this one Shao Qingyi is going to make is noodle products.

When eating gluten as a child, Shao Qingyi always thought it was a soy product with "noodles" in its name. It wasn't until he helped a restaurant in the kitchen and began to study various foods that he realized that gluten was really a flour product.

Like soy products, gluten is also elastic because it contains vegetable protein, but the vegetable protein of the two is different.

And the vegetarian pork chop Shao Qingyi is going to make today is also using the vegetable protein in the flour.

He took out a basin, added flour, starch, and water to it, and kneaded it into a smooth dough.

After the dough was formed, Shao Qingyi added a lot of water to the basin, and then began to wash the dough.

Washing dough is somewhat similar to washing clothes.

After slow and gentle kneading, the originally clear water turned into a cloudy batter, and the basin was left with smooth and elastic gluten.

This batter is the raw material used to make Liangpi, while gluten is the raw material used to make vegetarian meat.

Shao Qingyi boiled a pot of water, then took out a smaller wooden basin, scooped some batter into the wooden basin with a ladle, then placed the wooden basin on the boiled water, and covered the pot.

In this way, the steamed batter will become Liangpi.

At the same time, Shao Qingyi fished out the gluten that had sunk to the bottom, added salt, black pepper, and sugar, and kneaded it like kneading dough, stretching and closing repeatedly, stretching and closing again, and stretching it about ten times in this way, simulating The texture of the meat.

Shao Qingyi put the kneaded gluten aside and allowed it to ferment naturally, while concentrating on making Liangpi.

After finishing all the Liangpi, Shao Qingyi put them aside to cool.

Then start to steam some gluten that has expanded.

After steaming, the vegetarian pork chops are finally half done.

Shao Qingyi took out an egg, stirred it into egg liquid, and took out a steamed bun that had been dried out as a spare food, cut it and crushed it into steamed bun powder.

After that, the vegetarian meat is cut into slices of appropriate thickness, coated with a layer of egg liquid and then coated with a layer of steamed bun powder.

Finally, put the battered vegetarian pork chops in the oil pan and fry them.

While Shao Qingyi was frying vegetarian pork chops, she suddenly heard Cheng Ping's excited voice.

"Father Mu, we rescued Cao Cao!" Cheng Ping happily rushed into the kitchen with the escaped "Cao Cao" chess piece, followed by Cheng An, who was a step behind but equally excited.

"So powerful?" Shao Qingyi was taken aback, he thought it would take at least one day for them to solve this game!

"Hee hee hee, because we are smart!" Cheng Ping tilted his nose proudly.

Cheng An on the other side exposed him: "Obviously Dad is smart."

"We are Father's children, and if Father is smart, we are smart!" Cheng Ping said plausibly.

Shao Qingyi couldn't help laughing, this child...

In this way, He Changji was the biggest contributor to their ability to pass the level.Didn't expect that he is not only proficient in various life skills, but also good at games?

This thought flashed through Shao Qingyi's mind, and then he told the two children: "Okay, we've finished playing, put away the things on the table, and we can eat later."

"Okay~" The two children responded obediently, and then went to tidy up the things on the dining table.

Shao Qingyi took out the fried vegetarian pork chops to drain the oil, and then began to cook rice and curry.

Without any suitable ingredients, Shao Qingyi simply added curry powder directly with water and cooked it into a viscous curry sauce.

After the rice was cooked, Shao Qingyi took out a bowl, filled the bowl with rice, pressed it tightly, and then put it upside down on the empty plate, then placed a piece of vegetarian pork chop cut into strips, and poured thick curry sauce on it , the vegetarian pork chop curry rice is ready.

"Wow, what is this?" Seeing this novel shape, the two children all exclaimed in admiration, "It smells so good, it smells so good!"

"This is pork chop curry rice." Shao Qingyi said with a smile, "Eat it while it's hot."

"Yeah!" The two children nodded repeatedly.

"Pork chops? Where did you get fresh pork at home?" He Changji asked suspiciously, "Did you use bacon?"

"No, this pork chop is a vegetarian pork chop." Shao Qingyi replied.

Cheng Ping, who had already quickly swallowed a mouthful of pork chops, was admiring the crispy shell and delicious meat flavor in his heart, when he suddenly heard his father say that this pork chop was a vegetarian pork chop, he couldn't help but widen his eyes: "This, isn't it real meat? But When I ate it, it felt exactly like real meat!"

Cheng An, who took a small bite of the vegetarian pork chop to taste, also looked at Mu's father suspiciously: "Isn't this meat?"

Seeing the appearance of the two children, Shao Qingyi couldn't help laughing loudly: "Haha, this is really not pork, it's made of noodles."

"Noodles?" Cheng Ping was even more surprised when he heard the words. He picked up a piece of pork chop and tasted it again, then pouted and said, "Father Mu is lying, how could this be noodles?"

Cheng An also had some disbelief.

Shao Qingyi didn't expect that she was so good at making fakes out of real ones that the two children didn't believe it.

"If you don't believe me, Father Mu will buy it for you again tonight, and then you will watch from the side, how about it?" Shao Qingyi asked.

"Okay!" The two children responded in unison. It seems that if they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, they would not have believed that this pork chop was made of noodles anyway.

He Changji watched the rivalry between the father and son, and couldn't help feeling a little funny and curious: "Does this vegetarian pork chop really taste like pork chop? I'll try it too."

As he spoke, he picked up a piece of vegetarian pork chop and tasted it.

The first impression of the entrance is the aroma. The unique aroma of curry mixed with various seasonings makes He Changji's eyes shine.Then came the crispy, fried golden-yellow batter that crunched as soon as it went down.No matter how tender it is, the vegetarian meat, which tastes very similar to meat, is tender, juicy, and chewy. This taste is really novel and wonderful.

"Father, tell me, is this real meat?" Cheng Ping really wanted to get approval from his father, seeing that his father also ate it, he hurriedly asked.

He Changji chewed and ate the pork chop slowly, and then replied: "Although the taste is really similar to meat, there is still a slight difference in taste from real meat. In short, You can’t tell it’s pasta, but you can be sure it’s not real meat.”

Although He Changji said so, Cheng Ping still couldn't believe it: "I want to watch my father do it tonight!"

Shao Qingyi smiled and said: "You are really stubborn, okay, then you have to take care of it tonight, don't say that Father Mu took a piece of meat to make up for it while you were not paying attention."

"No, no!" Cheng Ping shook his head, "I'm just curious."

Seeing Chengping's appearance, Shao Qingyi suddenly had an idea, otherwise, let's have a vegetarian banquet at night, just to let Chengping, a little carnivore, feel the charm of vegetarianism.

Thinking of Cheng Ping who wanted to eat meat but could only eat vegetables, Shao Qingyi showed a sly smile.

After lunch, Shao Qingyi didn't go out directly, but asked He Changji to help draw up a few agreements.

After the children woke up from their nap and finished washing, Shao Qingyi took the two children out together.

Their first stop was Mr. Zheng's house.

Mr. Zheng is over 80 this year, and he is the oldest person in Shuiwan Village. When he was young, he was unmarried and had children. When he was old, he adopted two and a half children as apprentices to pass on his family's craftsmanship.

It is also a rare and rare thing in this era for craftsmen to pass on their craftsmanship to outsiders who have no blood relationship.

Mr. Zheng lives in the west of the village. His house is very big. The whole house is made of wood tenon and tenon, which is very distinctive.

The door of Zheng's house was open, and Shao Qingyi walked in with the children, and saw that it was dark inside, with all kinds of wood everywhere, and no one was there.

"Father Mu, this place is so scary..." the children said timidly while grabbing the corner of Father Mu's clothes.

"Don't be afraid, Father Mu is here." Even though she said so, Shao Qingyi was actually a little apprehensive.

This looks, why does it look like a coffin shop?

As Shao Qingyi continued to walk in, she shouted loudly, "Is anyone there?"

As a result, the house was too empty, Shao Qingyi heard her own echo as soon as she finished speaking, which made the already gloomy environment look even more frightening, and the two children also approached Mu's father closely.

"Who is it?" There was finally a response from the room, but the old and hoarse voice sounded even more creepy!

Prosperous, democratic, civilized and harmonious... Shao Qingyi silently carried the core values ​​of socialism in her heart, while explaining her intentions: "Mr. Zheng? We are from the He family, and we are here to discuss something with you!"

"Squeak--" the sound of the door being opened, Shao Qingyi noticed that there was a wooden door in an inconspicuous corner, and an old man on crutches came out tremblingly, he squinted his eyes to identify the appearance of the visitor, After seeing clearly that it was Mrs. He's husband, he asked slowly, "It's Xiao Shao. I don't have any extra combs and dressing boxes here. You can come back another day."

"Mr. Zheng, I'm here today to ask you to make two things." As she spoke, Shao Qingyi took out the jigsaw puzzle and Hua Rongdao she made.

Mr. Zheng saw that this was not made of wood. He replied tremblingly: "The old man is a carpenter and only knows how to do carpentry. You should find someone else to do this."

Shao Qingyi knew that Mr. Zheng had misunderstood, and he quickly explained: "This is to be made of wood, but I don't know how to carpentry, so I first made a model with cloth and paper."

Hearing this, Mr. Zheng took the two things in Shao Qingyi's hands and looked them over carefully, then asked, "What are you using this for?"

"These are two kinds of toys." Shao Qingyi said, and described the play of these two kinds of toys to the old man.

"I'm going to make these two things and sell them, so I hope they can be made more exquisite and beautiful. It's best to coat them with wax, and ordinary pine wood will do." Shao Qingyi said.

"This thing is not difficult to make." Mr. Zheng slowly returned the things in his hand to Shao Qingyi, then coughed, and asked with squinted eyes, "It's just the wages, how are you going to pay?"

Shao Qingyi had already asked He Changji about the wages before, and he replied well prepared: "We calculate the wages according to the quantity. A finished product with qualified quality costs three Wen. What do you think?"

Upon hearing this, Mr. Zheng stroked his beard and nodded in satisfaction, "Three Wen is just the right amount including the waxing materials and labor costs. How many of these two things do you need to make, and when will you want them?"

"Make [-] pieces each first." Shao Qingyi said, and took out a piece of paper from her arms, "This is the supply agreement that has been drawn up, which stipulates the responsibilities and delivery time of both of us. Please read it first. Look, if there is no problem, we will sign the agreement and I will give you the deposit. The samples can be started in a few days."

"Hey, it's quite formal." Mr. Zheng took the purchase agreement, squinted his eyes to look at it, and found that he was too old, and his old eyes were dim, so he couldn't read the words clearly.

"Feiyang, Feiyu, come here!" Mr. Zheng shouted loudly to the other direction of the room.

"Come here!" Soon, two handsome boys of fifteen or sixteen ran out.

The two of them were covered with sawdust, obviously they were called over after half the work.

"Master, what are your orders?" The two young men bowed to Mr. Zheng very respectfully and asked.

"Help master read this." Mr. Zheng handed over the agreement in his hand to the two apprentices.

"Supply agreement?" It was the first time for the two apprentices to see this kind of thing. They were a little puzzled and curious, but they obediently read all the contents of the purchase agreement.

After listening to the purchase agreement read by the apprentice, Mr. Zheng laughed and said, "Isn't this written by Mr. He?"

Shao Qingyi was a little surprised when she heard the words, how could Mr. Zheng guess it right away?

But he still smiled and nodded, "That's right."

"This kid is very mean-spirited, and you have taken advantage of this agreement." Although Mr. Zheng is old, his brain is still very shrewd, and he immediately heard that this agreement restricts them more.

Shao Qingyi also saw this agreement, and he replied with a smile: "Mr. Zheng, this agreement seems to have higher requirements on you on the surface, but in fact, you only need to guarantee the quality of the products produced and the delivery date." It is enough to meet our needs. Even if our goods cannot be sold, you can still get the corresponding wages. And every time we place an order, we will give you half of the money as a deposit. As long as we get the goods, we will Pay the remaining half of the money, and you don't need to worry about us being in debt."

Seeing that Mr. Zheng was silent, Shao Qingyi continued: "Actually, I have another agreement here. If Mr. Zheng is interested, you can also sign this one."

"Oh?" Mr. Zheng raised his eyebrows, "Then let's take a look together."

Shao Qingyi also took out another agreement that she had prepared, but this one was no longer a supply agreement, but an agreement on production and sales cooperation.

Mr. Zheng gave the agreement to his disciples as usual, and asked them to read the above words for him.

After listening to the content of the agreement, Mr. Zheng's eyes widened slightly cloudy: "You mean, you sell the things we produce, and we get fifty-five cents of the silver taels we sell?"

"That's right." Shao Qingyi smiled.

After receiving an affirmative reply, Mr. Zheng's expression gradually returned to normal.

He calmed down.

Although this agreement moved him more than the previous one, the old Zheng, who was already an octogenarian, would naturally consider more realistic factors.

He asked tremblingly, "Then what if it can't be sold?"

Shao Qingyi knew that Mr. Zheng would definitely struggle with this, so he didn't guarantee it, but said: "It is definitely possible that we can't sell it. These two agreements are two options. One option is to earn a processing fee, whether we sell it or not. If you sell more and less, you can only earn wages, but you don’t need to take risks; the other kind is to share the risks with us. If you sell well, your income will definitely be higher, and it will be higher than the single wage. a piece."

Mr. Zheng stroked his beard, thought for a moment, and then asked: "You just said that these two things are for playing?"

"Yes." Shao Qingyi smiled, "These are the two products we have just developed, and we will develop other products in the future."

"Since you decided to sell this, you must have already got some know-how?" Mr. Zheng said slowly, "How many pieces do you estimate you can sell in a year?"

"There must be some outlets. It hasn't started selling yet. I don't know how much there will be. But just say that Fucheng, which is the closest to our village, has a population of more than [-]. Even if only [-]% of the people buy it , there are a thousand copies." Shao Qingyi plans to start his own business in Fucheng first, so he has already learned about the basic information about the population of Fucheng, the situation of the major clans, etc., and has already made a preliminary estimate. .

"That is to say, as long as you can sell it successfully, even if we only earn processing fees, we can still earn 30 taels a year?" Mr. Zheng asked, stroking his beard.

"Yes." Shao Qingyi nodded, "If you choose the sales share, then the annual income will exceed this figure."

Mr. Zheng laughed when he heard the words: "Old man is getting old, from now on, whether it is Shuiwan Village or Fucheng, it will be your young people's world. How about this, Feiyang Feiyu, this business is up to you."

"Well, how can this work?" The two young apprentices wondered, "We have never..."

"Master is getting old, one more day to live is a day. You guys, sooner or later you have to learn to make decisions for yourself. Instead of waiting for the master to be buried and then forced to learn, it is better to learn in advance, so that the master can go with peace of mind." Already The octogenarian Mr. Zheng is already bearish on life and death. When he mentioned this topic, his expression was very calm, but the two young apprentices beside him felt sad when they heard it.

"Master..." The two little apprentices lowered their heads and lowered their voices.

Shao Qingyi secretly felt that although Mr. Zheng had no blood relationship with these two apprentices, he did have a heart for them.

"Okay, stop acting like a baby, make a decision quickly, and don't make Mrs. He Jiafu wait too long." Mr. Zheng urged.

"Then, let's discuss it first." Seeing that Mr. Zheng had made up his mind, the two young apprentices spoke and glanced at Shao Qingyi.

Shao Qingyi naturally smiled and nodded, "Okay."

Soon, the two apprentices whispered for a while, and finally made a decision: "We decided to sign this."

With that said, they took out the supply agreement.

"Oh? Why?" Shao Qingyi was a little curious.

"The two of us haven't mastered the craft yet, and we are very happy to receive the job. I don't want to worry about how to sell the finished products." The two young apprentices are taller and older. He explained, "And, if it sells well, the processing fee for one year is enough for us to spend. If it doesn't sell well, we only need to earn the processing fee."

Shao Qingyi nodded to express her understanding, and then confirmed to Mr. Zheng: "Then, are you sure you have to sign this?"

Mr. Zheng also nodded and confirmed: "Just listen to them."

"Okay, since you are sure you want to sign this one, then sign this one." Shao Qingyi said, and took out another copy, "This agreement is in duplicate, if you confirm that there is no problem, Mr. Zheng, please sign here. In addition, because these two products are made for the first time and are still in the trial production stage, we need to make five copies within these two days, and we can continue the cooperation after we confirm that the quality is qualified.”

"Aren't these things clearly stated in your agreement? Don't worry, we will strictly abide by it, including this non-disclosure agreement." Mr. Zheng promised, and then showed another agreement to the apprentices to confirm that it was the same as before. After the copy made no difference, he signed his name.

"Then there are three of you. This is a deposit of five copies. I will pick up the finished product the day after tomorrow." Shao Qingyi said, and gave the deposit of five samples to Mr. Zheng.

"No problem. It's not difficult for you to make these two things. Although my two apprentices are half-baked, it's still no problem to make this." Mr. Zheng received the money with a sincere smile on his face.
