After rebirth, I went from a peasant girl to the richest man
Chapter 18 The Secret Recipe of Magical Tofu
To be on the safe side, Manager Li also prescribed some nourishing medicine for Bai's father to help Bai Qingyun regulate his body.
Bai Qingyun knew that his family was poor, his nutrition was insufficient, and his body was in poor condition. Now that his family's conditions had improved, even if he didn't take these medicines, his body would slowly get better. But in order to reassure his family, he could only let his father get the medicine. He just hoped that the medicine would not be too bitter!
After getting the medicine, Father Bai was about to pay when Manager Li stopped him and said, "Brother Bai, there's no need to do that. The herbalist has already weighed the antlers. If you're not sure, you can weigh them again yourself!"
Father Bai naturally had no intention of reclaiming his title. The reputation of Jishidiang was trustworthy. Manager Li handed the silver to Father Bai while joking. It was not known whether it was because Manager Li begged Father Bai to find Ganoderma lucidum, the silver was heavier than expected.
(Important reminder: This is necessary for the plot. It is illegal to buy and sell deer antlers privately in my country. If the deer antlers are artificially raised, it is legal to buy and sell them after obtaining relevant procedures. If you are facing difficulties or need help, you can seek legal and compliant channels, such as consulting professionals or relevant institutions for help and support.)
Bai Qingyun didn't know the weight of silver in ancient times. At this moment, he just wanted the snack shop in the town not to close too early. He coquettishly told his father to buy the jujube paste yam cake from last time.
Even if Bai Qingyun didn't act like a spoiled child, Bai's father would not mistreat his daughter. But seeing his daughter's cheerful look, he would still raise the corners of his mouth unconsciously.
Not only that, he also bought some cakes that are popular among children, such as butterfly cakes and osmanthus cakes… The weather was too hot and the cakes could not be kept for a long time, but Bai's father still bought some more for Bai Qingyun to put in the space so that she could take them out and eat them at any time.
It was still late, and the father and daughter were eating cakes and drinking tea at a tea stand opposite the school, waiting for the three brothers to finish school.
……
When they returned home, they saw the village chief sitting in front of the hall smoking a pipe with Grandpa Bai. The village chief of Dayang Village was called Yang Fuhai. It was he who took Grandpa Bai in and settled down in Dayang Village. He has taken good care of the Bai family in recent years.
Regarding Bai Qingyun's secret recipe, Grandpa Bai took the initiative to tell the truth to Village Chief Yang, saying that it was the gods who blessed Bai Qingyun during her illness and gave Bai Qingyun a chance of good fortune. Village Chief Yang hesitated a little after hearing this, but soon figured it out. After all, the daughter of the Bai family had been ill for many years, and suddenly got better. There was really no better reason than to explain that it was the gods' good fortune.
This is how the ancients were. They would quickly believe what the gods said.
At this moment, Village Chief Yang was talking to Grandpa Bai with a frown on his face. When he saw Bai Qingyun coming back, his frown immediately relaxed and he smiled. The wrinkles on his forehead made him look even more friendly: "Little Bai is back, come to Grandpa!"
Bai Qingyun was a little slower in his movements, but it was Bai's father who took the lead in greeting him: "Uncle Yang, how come you have time to come and sit down today? It just so happens that I just ordered some wine today. I'll go cook a few more dishes, so that I can drink a few more glasses with you tonight!"
Village Chief Yang glanced at Bai's father and said, "Boy, didn't your father come to me and tell me that Bai girl had a recipe for food? I've tasted the tofu and it tastes really good, but this is Bai girl's creation after all. How can you give it away so easily? Your family has been poor for many years, so it's good to have the recipe to start a business!"
Bai Qingyun reacted and greeted the elders first, then said, "Don't worry, Grandpa Yang. My family has other businesses. I heard from my grandparents that the grandparents and uncles and aunts in the village often helped our family, but many families in the village are not well off. It would be better to take out this recipe so that the villagers can have more income."
"You kid, the wild boar meat your family distributed to everyone last time was not enough. The recipes for this kind of food are all inherited from our ancestors, so how can we pass it on easily?"
Bai Qingyun spent a lot of effort to persuade Village Chief Yang, and Bai's mother came over to greet everyone to prepare for dinner. Grandma Bai knew that there were guests for dinner today, so she didn't need Bai's father to greet them, so she cooked a few new specialties. During the meal, they talked about the fairy tofu, but didn't drink much.
But the secret recipe of the magic tofu was finally determined. Village chief Yang decided to charge one or two taels of silver per household for the secret recipe. The money collected was given to the Bai family as the money for Bai Qingyun to sell the secret recipe. The villagers were led by the village chief and the elders of Dayang Village acted as guarantors. Every household who learned the secret recipe had to sign a confidentiality agreement. Once the secret recipe was leaked, they would be expelled from Dayang Village.
Being expelled from the village in that era was already a severe punishment. Besides, since this was their livelihood, people would not easily leak the secret.
Bai Qingyun wanted to quickly bring the magic tofu to the market during the summer, so he provided Village Chief Yang with a quick marketing and distribution method.
First, they used the village's strong community base to organize people to hawk the tofu in the streets, and set a unified price in the market to ensure that everyone, whether rich or ordinary, could afford a bowl of Shenxian tofu. When everyone knew how delicious Shenxian tofu was, they could sell it in different regions, with Dayang Village as the production base of Shenxian tofu.
In fact, Bai Qingyun had this idea because he had seen milk tea shops in the streets and alleys in the modern plane. There were probably two such shops in a shopping mall, just Mixue Ice City. What was even more terrifying was that there were quite a few people in each shop. Fortunately, he only ordered a glass of lemonade, which was made quickly. Otherwise, he would have almost missed the opening of the movie because of a glass of milk tea.
Village chief Yang was smart and knew that Bai Qingyun's recipe would quickly allow the villagers to earn some income as long as they could unite the villagers.
In order to cooperate with Bai Qingyun's regional sales, Village Chief Yang gathered the people in charge of the family early the next morning and told them about the magical tofu. He told them, "This is the good fortune that the girl from the Bai family has earned for our Yang Village. If you have any opinions, you can raise them now. If something goes wrong later because of the leak, don't blame me for being cruel!"
Village Chief Yang still has prestige in Dayang Village, and everyone agreed after hearing this. "Don't worry, Uncle Yang. Although we can't read a single word, we still understand the basics. The Bai family is willing to help us out of our kindness, and we can't let them down."
Seeing that the deterrent effect was achieved, Village Chief Yang continued, "The Bai family said that they will not participate in the business of making magical tofu, but they will organize everyone to learn how to make it in the early stage. During this period, let the women in your family go to the Bai family to learn well, and the men who have been to the mountains should follow the Bai family boy to find the magical tree. There is only one tree of this thing in the Bai family yard. In the future, there will be a lot of magical tofu in the village, and one tree is not enough!"
In fact, Father Bai had discussed with the village chief last night that the magical tree in the backyard could be transplanted to the village to make it convenient for everyone to pick it. However, Village Chief Yang refused. The recipe had already been given to him, so how could he take away the tree that had been dug down from the mountain with great effort? If there was one tree on the mountain, there would be two, three... There were so many trees in Dayang Village, it was only a matter of time to find a few trees!
After hearing this, Bai Qingyun also expressed his willingness to go to the mountain with his father to look for the tree. This tree was originally discovered by Bai Qingyun, so if they went together, it would be faster.
It just so happened that Father Bai agreed to Jishidiang's mission to find Ganoderma lucidum, so he followed everyone else to "pretend" to look for Ganoderma lucidum, but actually to look for the magical tree.
