Traveling through ancient times, I led my family to prosperity

After being busy for a while, Sheng Xuan came over. Several farmhands were still scooping water out.

"Dad, what's going on?" Xiao Lan and others hurried forward and asked.

"It should be fine." Sheng Xuan replied.

Xiao Lan was paying attention to Sheng Xuan's expression all the time. She felt relieved when she realized that he didn't say that on purpose to reassure them.

Several people walked home together.

"This is the kind of rain that can happen. It can't get any heavier. Our river embankment is strong and should be able to withstand it." Sheng Xuan explained to the children along the way.

Sheng Xuan has been talking to the old farmers in the village these days. Of course, he has also talked to the farmhands at home. After considering the opinions of both sides, he said these words.

As Sheng Xuan expected, the sky cleared up the next day and it was a sunny day.

Xiao Lan couldn't sit still and wanted to go to the fish pond, but was stopped by Sheng Xuan and Zhang. The reason was that a child playing by the river in the village drowned yesterday. Although Xiao Lan promised to just watch from the shore and resolutely not go into the water, she was still rejected by the couple.

"Just stay at home and don't go anywhere. You have enough chores to do at home. Why do you want to join in the fun by the river?" Zhang said.

The rice seedlings in the vegetable garden on the farm were blown all over the place by the wind and really needed someone to pick them up.

In the morning, she only felt the damp air. After noon, when the sun evaporated the moisture from the ground into the air, Xiao Lan immediately felt uncomfortable. She was sweating all over and didn't feel dry.

However, the work in the garden has not been finished yet. The melon vines have been blown by the wind and rain, and they are lying limp on the ground. They need to be supported by wooden sticks and tied to the sticks. Although the vines seem to be dying now, they will recover soon and will not be delayed in flowering and fruiting.

Xiao Lan was allowed to go out only when the water on the ground dried up. Now the water level of the river has dropped, the water is clear, and the lotus leaves in Xiao Lan's fish pond have regained their former vitality, a thriving scene.

The jerky workshop has been built, and today is the day He Mingyu comes to inspect the results.

The workshop is divided into four parts: one part is responsible for slaughtering rabbits, one part is responsible for selecting the tenderer rabbits to make rabbit meat cubes, one part is responsible for making the remaining rabbits into cured rabbit meat, and one part is responsible for nitreizing rabbit skins.

Xiao Lan picked up a piece of rabbit meat and took a bite. The meat cubes were very soft and could be easily bitten off. The rich meaty aroma spread in her mouth. Xiao Lan took a few bites and stretched out her hand to signal He Mingyu to try it. After she finished eating one piece, she picked up another piece and put it in her mouth, saying to He Mingyu, "This thing is good, isn't it."

"It's pretty good, but have you thought about how to preserve it?" He Mingyu said.

"Of course." Xiao Lan led He Ming to the warehouse and saw that there were already a lot of clay pots in the warehouse. "These are earthenware pots. The cost is very low. Seal the rabbit meat inside and open it after it is transported to the destination. It is guaranteed not to go bad. After these pots are opened, the jerky can be retailed or sold directly. It is feasible."

As Xiao Lan spoke, she led him to the other side of the warehouse, where there were exquisite porcelain jars. Xiao Lan picked one at random, opened the cap, poured out a piece of diced rabbit meat, and handed it to He Mingyu, "Taste it and see if it's any different from what you just had."

He Mingyu put it in his mouth, took a bite, chewed it for a while, and then said with a gleam in his eyes, "This meat is more fragrant and delicate than before."

Xiao Lan smiled and tried a piece, then turned to He Mingyu and said, "I specially asked someone to make this. This batch of rabbit meat is much better than the meat in the clay pot just now. When the time comes, the price of this rabbit meat will definitely be higher than that in the clay pot. After all, the porcelain pot also cost money."

He Mingyu picked up the porcelain jar, examined it carefully for a while, and asked, "The price of this batch of porcelain jars is not low, right?"

"Hahaha, that's right. Anyway, the price of the rabbit meat we sell is not low either, so the profit is still considerable." Xiao Lan said with a smile, "But the premise is that there is a market for this rabbit meat and it can be sold."

Although Xiao Lan was bragging about the exquisiteness of the porcelain, He Mingyu could tell at a glance that these porcelains could not be compared with the exquisite porcelains in the south. As for the cost, it would definitely not be too exaggerated.

"What is this?" He Mingyu pointed at a corner of the porcelain and asked. He hadn't paid much attention just now, but now that he paid a little more attention, he saw the Lan mark not only on the corner of the porcelain, but also on the earthenware jar.

Seeing that He Mingyu had discovered it, Xiao Lan admitted very frankly, "This is our family's label. Its purpose is to let people know that it is produced by our family as soon as they see it."

"Little God of Wealth, you are such an unfair person. We agreed that you and the general would share the profit from this rabbit meat. How can you only put your label on it?" He Mingyu said.

Xiao Lan rolled her eyes and said, "Even if you don't interfere, I can still handle this matter well. Don't be so ungrateful."

He Mingyu touched his nose and remained silent. The little girl was right. The idea of ​​making diced rabbit meat was from someone else. The land and the workshop were also from someone else. They were the ones who were shameless enough to get involved. As for whether to bid or not, he should respect the little girl's opinion and not really annoy her for such a small matter. He was still hoping to make money from her.

When He Mingyu left, he was carrying a few jars of rabbit meat, under the pretext of letting his general taste the diced rabbit meat produced in the workshop.

When Xiaolan left, she was not left without a few cans of rabbit meat.

It was the first time for the children in the family to eat this kind of diced rabbit meat, and they all thought it was very delicious. Even Shen and Zhang Shanfeng couldn't help but eat two more pieces.

The adults knew what was going on and were reluctant to eat too much of the delicious food, so they usually just tasted a little. But since it was the first time for the children to eat this rare thing, they inevitably ate too much.

"There are a lot of spices in this thing. It's summer now, and eating too much will cause a sore throat. We can each eat no more than three pieces a day." Xiao Lan said.

Xiaowen, Xiaohu and the others also knew that Xiaolan was doing this for their own good. Each of them picked up the last piece and put it in their mouths. While chewing with their cheeks puffed out, they said, "This is the last piece of today. After you eat this, we won't eat any more."

Zhang smiled and said, "Look at how bossy your second sister is. She even has to control you from eating a piece of rabbit meat."

"No, Second Sister is thinking about our health. Second Sister doesn't eat because she is in pain." When Xiao Wen heard Zhang say this, he quickly retorted.

The children in the family nodded in agreement with Xiaowen's statement.

"Hey, you little bastard, who am I fighting for food for? I'm working so hard but it's not worth it." Zhang said with a smile
