Across Ranch Story: Friends of Mineral Town

Chapter 190 Learning to Manage the Household

At this time, Sister Juan had already selected the number and style of tents needed, and Huo An quickly drafted a contract. After both parties signed and stamped, the deal was officially concluded.

Afterwards, Lin Xia recommended to Sister Juan the exotic clothing sets that Huo An had exhibited last time. They were all very interested and immediately began to choose with great interest. Huo An then brought out the display model and dressed them on the spot.

In addition, there are a wide range of accessories for people to choose from. These accessories are of different styles and originality: some are simple and generous, showing elegant temperament; some are gorgeous and complicated, exuding noble atmosphere; some are full of personality and creativity, which makes people shine. They are either inlaid with dazzling gems or made with meticulous craftsmanship. Each piece can be called a work of art. Whether it is matched with daily wear or used for special occasions, these accessories can add unique charm and style to the overall look.

This time, Huo An gave a realistic and fair price for the goods selected by the few people, and did not charge more, which showed that he really regarded them as friends and only charged them the cost price.

Although Lin Xia expressed doubts about the cost price mentioned by Huo An, the price this time was undoubtedly appropriate, and Lin Xia also appreciated Huo An's kindness.

"Thank you Miss Juanjuan for your support. Please feel free to contact me if you need anything in the future!" Huo An said enthusiastically.

"Okay, Mr. Huo, I look forward to our next cooperation." Sister Juan also responded with a smile. After everyone exchanged greetings for a while, they finally left the beachside cottage.

After seeing off Sister Juan and her group, Huo An rubbed his hands excitedly. "I really made a lot of money this time!" He said to himself. He thought to himself that this time, thanks to Lin Xia, not only did she bring in business, but she also helped him discover new business opportunities. He had to treat this little guy well in the future.

The four people who left the beach were also very happy. This trip to the beach was undoubtedly fruitful. It was already past 4 o'clock in the afternoon. Lin Xia took a few people to visit Carter's church and ran into Carter in the confessional.

Lin Xia immediately encouraged several people to go in and confess, and experience the charm of the priest in Mineral Town.

The three of them had never experienced this kind of church confession before, and they entered one by one with great curiosity.

The result was just as Lin Xia had expected. After the three people came out, some were happy - like Sister Juan, who must have "received God's forgiveness"; some had sad faces, or their faces were blue and red - like Lili and Shasha, who must have thought "God will not forgive you"!

Sister Juan was very curious and asked about it. When she learned that the two were worried because they had not been forgiven by God, she was about to comfort them, but she found Lin Xia grinning strangely beside them. She immediately realized that there might be something fishy.

Under the threat of the three men, he immediately laughed and said to them, "Don't worry too much. The priest in our town helps people confess in the confessional, and the prayers he gives are random. Even if he says that you will not be forgiven by God, you will not have any bad effects at all, don't worry!"

Seeing that they didn't quite believe it, Lin Xia had to tell everyone about her own personal experience, which completely dispelled their doubts.

Then, Lin Xia took a few people to visit the Gulp House. They had originally wanted to visit Muchi’s cattle and sheep ranch, but today was Monday, which was the day Muchi went to take a hot spring bath, so they had to give up.

However, the various chickens and Angora rabbits in the Clucking House are also loved by everyone. There are many more chickens and rabbits here than in Lin Xia's home.

The furry little chicks, with their small and exquisite bodies, some are covered with golden fluff, some are covered with snow-white fluff, just as cute as little balls of wool; there are also those round and chubby Angora rabbits, covered with soft and delicate long hair, some are snow-white, some are pink, as if they came out of a fairy tale.

These little guys are either playing and fighting, or chasing and pecking, bringing endless vitality and energy to the whole scene. All girls can never escape these cute little things.

They stayed in the Giggle Hut until about 5 o'clock, and then they left reluctantly. They kept saying that they wanted to buy a rabbit to keep as a pet. Lin Xia said that she could provide them with free feed, but they often had to go out for work. Was it convenient to raise a rabbit?

After frowning and thinking, a few people said that if it really didn't work, they could just leave the pet at a pet shop when they were on a business trip!

Seeing their determination to raise pets, Lin Xia said, "We have a pet dealer coming here on the 15th of every month. He has pet bags that can be used to carry pets without interrupting their lives. If you need one, you can consider buying one."

"That's great, Xia Xia~" Sister Juan said happily, "Please buy one for us and send it to us when the time comes!"

"no problem!"

They returned to the ranch chatting and laughing. Lin Xia asked them to rest for a while and go to the bathroom to take a shower. After all, they had been running all day and had been in the sea. The bathroom could restore strength and reduce fatigue. While they were bathing and resting, she also prepared some food for the evening.

Lili asked Sister Juan and Sasha to wash first while she helped Lin Xia prepare dinner. She also guided Lin Xia on how to make some seasonings that she was not very good at, especially some seasoning packets used to marinate meat or make braised food. Lili had many secret recipes in this regard.

Because Lin Xia came from a place where food was scarce, when he suddenly became rich, he was so wealthy that he stockpiled a lot of food ingredients, especially wheat flour, cooking oil, and various spices and seasonings.

Lili was completely speechless when she saw the 1000 bags of wheat flour and 1000 barrels of cooking oil that Lin Xia had bought. She didn't know that Lin Xia had a deep sense of insecurity about the lack of food, and she just thought that it was a little girl who didn't know how to manage the household. "Fortunately, your refrigerator and space are both equipped with fresh-keeping functions. If they weren't, with so much food, how long would it take you to eat them all by yourself?"

"Isn't this a one-time solution? I don't have to buy it every now and then~" Seeing Lili's disapproving look, he said stubbornly, "My appetite now is equivalent to that of four or five people, so I don't need to eat forever. Besides, sometimes when I run out of energy, cooking can quickly replenish my energy~"

What else could Lili say? She could only say, "Although that's the case, you really don't need to buy so much at once. Although this town is small, I think shopping is still very convenient and fast. If you need anything, you can buy it a few days in advance! You should have a plan for your life. You must have spent a lot of money to buy so much at once~"

This time Lin Xia kept silent. She did spend hundreds of thousands of dollars at that time. Alas, she should not always be immersed in the fear of food shortage. Lin Xia promised Lili that it would never happen again in the future.

"But I'm glad you didn't buy a lot of rice. These few dozen kilograms of rice are a suitable amount!"

"Yeah~" Lin Xia nodded repeatedly but didn't dare to say anything. At that time, she considered that she would grow rice next year and she had already bought a lot of wheat flour, so she only bought 300 kilograms of rice. Now there are only a few dozen kilograms left.

While helping Lin Xia to combine the large amount of spices she had stored into seasoning packets suitable for various dishes, Lili also taught Lin Xia what other pastries the flour was suitable for making besides the regular steamed buns, steamed buns and noodles, and that even steamed buns could be made with a variety of different fillings.

Lin Xia listened carefully and nodded from time to time. She followed Lili's instructions and put different spices into small bags and marked their uses.

At the same time, I also recorded the spice recipes that Lili told me in a notebook, so that when these spice packets are used up in the future, I can also mix them myself according to the recipes.

With the help of the smart kitchen, Lili simply made samples of her specialty pasta dishes and entered them into the kitchen menu system. This way, whenever Lin Xia wants to eat the same dish in the future, she can just choose it and provide the raw materials. It can be said to be quite convenient.

Lin Xia's gratitude to Lili is like an endless torrent of water.

Lili covered her mouth and giggled non-stop. Sister Juan came out of the shower and knew what was going on. She poked Lin Xia's head with a smile and said what everyone was thinking: "You little flatterer!"
