Farming and teaching across different worlds

Right.

Seeing that Shi Jingchen returned to normal, Ji Xiuran felt relieved.After reacting, I felt that this person's clumsy flattery was very heartwarming.

After Ji Xiuran tidied himself up, he went to tidy up the stall left over from yesterday, and he also went to send off those guests who stayed overnight drunk yesterday.

Moreover, both my husband and my wife stayed here yesterday, and today he will treat me well.

When Ji Xiuran came to the upper room, the teacher's wife was sitting there chatting with Ji's mother. Although their knowledge, family background and experience were different, they unexpectedly matched each other, and the conversation was quite congenial.

Ji Xiuran stepped forward to salute his wife, but his wife stopped him and said, "Xiuran, there is no need to be too polite, just relax at your own home."

Mother Ji said next to her: "You are his teacher's wife, he should salute you, don't stop him." Teacher's wife smiled and nodded.

Ji Xiuran still saluted before sitting down and said, "Why didn't I see Teacher."

"After your teacher got up, he went out for a walk. He liked the scenery of your village very much. He should go to school now." The teacher's wife explained Mr. Xi's whereabouts.

Ji Xiuran got up and said: "The student will leave first, and go to the teacher to listen to his teachings." When he heard that his husband was going to visit the school, he wanted to see what his husband thought of his school, so he hurriedly left.

"You go." The teacher's wife nodded, signaling Ji Xiuran to leave, while she and Ji's mother continued to chat about family affairs.

Ji Xiuran found Mr., listened to Mr.'s opinion, and then Mr. proposed to go back. He and Shi Jingchen put the man in the carriage and personally escorted him back.

For the other guests who are leaving today, he will leave it to Brother Ji and Second Brother Ji to make arrangements. As for the old gentleman who came uninvited, he only heard about it after seeing him off, and that person is Zeng Junhui's father.

It turned out that since old man Zeng drank the wine that Ji Xiuran gave Zeng Junhui that day, he couldn't forget it, and wanted to ask Zeng Junhui to help him get some more wine back. Unfortunately, Zeng Junhui was busy expanding his business during this time, and he didn't go home during the Mid-Autumn Festival.The old man had no choice but to find the shopkeeper of Piaoxiang Building.

The shopkeeper also didn't have Ji Xiuran's home address, usually Ji Xiuran would come to the door on his own initiative, or Zeng Junhui would contact him himself, he had never left Ji Xiuran's address before.In the end, it was the former mistress who remembered the invitation, and that's how the old man came to the wine tasting party uninvited.

After the old man came by himself, he drove back his family and the car. In the end, he drank too much on the mountain and lived in the room he had prepared before.

The next day, before Ji Xiuran was fully awake, people from the Zeng residence had already come to him.It turned out that after Mr. Zeng drove his carriage and servants back, the old lady of the Zeng family became anxious when she didn't see her old man coming home at night.Usually, the old man would go out to eat, drink and take a walk, but he must come back for dinner every day.

This time, no one was seen at dinner time, so the Zeng family became anxious. When the old lady of the Zeng family summoned the eldest and second young masters of the Zeng family home, it was already late at night. After finding out where the old master of the Zeng family went, It was already dark, and after knowing that the old man of the Zeng family was going to the reception, the Zeng family was not in a hurry.

Come to Qingshan Village to find the old man at dawn.When the Zeng family found him, the old man was still sound asleep in the courtyard.

Chapter 51

When Zeng Junhui came back and heard about the embarrassing things his father had done, he immediately came to Qingshan Village to find Ji Xiuran to apologize. "Xiuran, I'm really sorry. My old man is a bit self-willed when he is old. Please forgive me." Ji Xiuran didn't care much, shook his head with a smile and said, "It's okay, the old man wants the wine I brew, I'm too happy to be happy Well, when you leave, take the two altars back, it is considered as a filial piety for the old man by the younger generation."

"Hey, it's a good relationship. Before I came, the old man was clamoring for me to get him some more jars of wine. Hey, I said, don't forget my share." Zeng Junhui didn't come back to attend the wine tasting, Feeling panicked for a long time, I also want to get some new wine from Ji Xiuran to go back and taste it this time.He had been looking forward to it for more than half a year.

"I can't do without you." Ji Xiuran was not stingy with the two jars of wine.In the later stage of sales, we have to rely more on Zeng Junhui, so it's okay to give him some. "You went to Yongcheng this time, how do you feel? Did it go well?"

"Our products have already gained a reputation in Yongcheng. This time it is a matter of course. The store has just opened, and the business is booming. The reason why I was there for so long this time is mainly because I didn't find a suitable one. Shopkeeper, I just finished it a few days ago, and I came back without stopping."

After finishing speaking, he sighed and continued, "It's a pity that I still couldn't catch up with your wine tasting."

"Stop complaining about yourself. What's the matter? Anyway, there will be opportunities in the future, and I promised to refill the wine you drank this time. Enough is enough." Ji Xiuran couldn't resist his resentful eyes.

"By the way, this is what I brought back. See if it's what you're looking for." Zeng Junhui pushed the box on his side down in front of Ji Xiuran, opened it, took out some transparent sheets inside, and showed him.Ji Xiuran took it over and took a closer look. The transparent jelly-like substance had a slight fishy smell, but it couldn't be felt if you didn't smell it carefully.

After breaking it, it was very tough and not easy to break. I put it in my mouth and tasted it, but it didn't taste much.Is it something you want? Try it out.Ji Xiuran and Shi Jingchen went to the kitchen, boiled water, and heated it through water. After melting, it became a viscous paste. He heated the syrup and jam, stirred them evenly, let them cool, and then cut them open.

Ji Xiuran picked up a piece of ready-made candy and ate it.Although it is not as chewy as the fruit jelly that I have eaten before, it is indeed a new product in the jelly category.Zeng Junhui watched Ji Xiuran turn this tasteless transparent substance into a delicious candy, his eyes widened, feeling so incredible.

When Ji Xiuran sent a message to him to find this kind of thing, he had high expectations at first, but he was very disappointed when he found it. He didn't know how to make such a tasteless and tasteless thing delicious.But now he really admires it.Chewing the fruit jelly in his mouth, he felt a lot of money flying into his pocket.

Ji Xiuran has been wanting to develop a new candy for a long time, and there has been a lack of materials. Zeng Junhui was asked to find a substitute for agar. This kind of transparent substance with a slight fishy smell should be obtained from some kind of aquatic product. It is barely usable without agar, and the slight fishy smell is completely removed after adding lemon.Doesn't affect the taste at all.

A year is about to pass, and since he developed three new candies for Zeng Junhui during the Chinese New Year last year, no new products have been produced.At the end of the year, if he doesn't come up with some results, he will have a bad year.It just so happened that Zeng Junhui found this kind of transparent jelly this time, and this year's new product is custom-made this kind of fruit jelly.Judging by the reactions of the children and women at home, we can see how popular this new product will be.

Ever since he got the new sugar recipe from Ji Xiuran last year, Zeng Junhui changed his cooperation method with Ji Xiuran to a sharing model.Now Ji Xiuran accounts for [-]% of the candy sold in his shop.The cooperation of sweet potato flour is a contract signed with Qingshan Village Flour Mill, not directly involved with Ji Xiuran.Drinks are paid for by Antan.

Although Ji Xiuran and Zeng Junhui's business is deeply involved now, it's easy to say, the bulk is still the drinks.The main source of Ji Xiuran's current income is from Zeng Junhui. He is also worth a little now, so he can support the consumption in the laboratory, and he can afford the paper workshop, which has been consuming without making a profit.

After Zeng Junhui finished talking about the latest sugar recipes and wine purchases, he talked about this year's vegetable supply. "Xiu Ran, this year you need to grow some greenhouses. You missed it last year. Do you know how much money you missed? Anyway, I don't care. No matter how much you plant this year, you can't lose my share."

"I know. I originally wanted to expand production this year, so your share is naturally indispensable. Maybe I have to rely on you to find me a market."

"Why? The amount planted this year is not small?" Zeng Junhui knew from his tone that he wanted to play a big game this year. "I want to hand over the technology to the villagers, and then sell the vegetables grown to you." Zeng Junhui gave Ji Xiuran a thumbs up and said, "I really admire you. I didn't expect such a good opportunity to make money. Willing to let go."

"The people in the village are kind to me. Besides, this kind of greenhouse technology is very simple. Even if I don't tell them, they can learn it by looking at it. Besides, even if every family grows greenhouses, the number of planted greenhouses is limited. There will be a lot of food and no one will buy it." Even though the technology is simple, the money consumed is still huge, and ordinary people are not willing to spend so much money.

The other one is that the farmers are distressed, fearing that after building a greenhouse, the land will be hurt, and there will not be more than ten families who are really willing to spend money on the land.The fact is true, after Ji Xiuran spread the greenhouse planting technology to the public, the ones who finally decided to plant were the ones he had a good relationship with before, plus Aunt Wu and Aunt Li who made some money from setting up stalls in the Qiaotou market. family.Always ten.

After talking about these, Zeng Junhui wants to go to the handmade biscuits before, which are different from handmade candies. After they are made, the sales of this kind of handmade biscuits are better than candy, but now he has limited manpower, and the finished products he can make are limited. There are sales in the old store in the county seat, "Xiu Ran, the handmade biscuits you gave me before are also selling well, and I am also selling them this time."
