I traveled through time and space as a little girl, and the emperor appointed me as the great master

After buying the pork fat, Kong Xiaoxiao remembered that there was only a small broken pot at home.

She is usually OK at cooking, but she can’t make lard. No, she has to buy an iron pan.

"Brother Erwa, I still need to go to the blacksmith shop to buy a pot. Why don't you go back first?"

"No, let's go together. Isn't it just the blacksmith shop? I know where it is. I'll take you there. Let's go."

Fang Erwa led the way with a backpack on his back, and Kong Xiaoxiao had no choice but to follow. The two of them walked with such a gait that they didn't recognize anyone.

"Little sister, this is it." Fang Erwa raised his hand and pointed to a very narrow shop in front.

As soon as Kong Xiaoxiao walked into the door, she felt a burst of heat rushing out. It was indeed worthy of being a blacksmith shop.

So Kong Xiaoxiao shouted to the boss at the door: "Boss!"

"Coming" a hoarse voice came from inside.

After a while, Kong Xiaoxiao saw a middle-aged man with bare chest, showing signs of aging, walking out.

He asked directly: "Little girl, are you going to hit something?"

"Boss, do you have a big iron pot ready?"

The boss didn't think that she wanted to buy an iron pot. He was stunned for a moment and then quickly nodded. After all, he had never met a little girl who came to buy an iron pot.

Because a big iron pot is not cheap, and Kong Xiaoxiao's clothes make her look like an ordinary person, but her family actually trusts her with such an important matter.

"Yes, it depends on how big you want." Then he took Kong Xiaoxiao to the inner room to have a look.

Fang Erwa was worried, so he followed him in.

As soon as Kong Xiaoxiao entered the room, she saw iron tools hanging everywhere on the walls.

There is also a large table in the middle of the room, on which are placed iron pots, iron nets, etc. This blacksmith shop has quite a wide variety of products.

Kong Xiaoxiao walked to the table piled with iron pots and started picking them carefully. While picking, she also recalled the size of the stove at home in her mind.

Then he stretched out his hand and used his palm to roughly gesture the pot he liked. After some gestures, he pointed to a pot with a diameter of about 40cm.

"Uncle, how much is this pot?"

"Give me 800 coins for that one. It was originally 850 coins. If you're serious about buying it, I'll give you a discount."

When the boss saw that Kong Xiaoxiao had clear eyes and looked well-behaved, he was reminded of his own daughter, so he was happy to give her some discounts.

Kong Xiaoxiao was satisfied when she heard that the price was about what she expected, and she paid immediately.

"Thank you, boss. I will come to take care of your business next time I have the chance."

Kong Xiaoxiao smiled happily. After all, the boss gave her a discount of 50 cents, which was enough to buy two sets of linen clothes.

The two men walked out of the blacksmith shop and headed straight back to the village.

"Brother Erwa, please let me hold the pot."

Kong Xiaoxiao felt bad when she saw Fang Erwa carrying a backpack and holding a big pot in his hands.

After all, I am empty-handed.

I didn’t expect Fang Erwa to have the image of a warm-hearted man.

Fang Erwa shook his head and grabbed the iron pot tightly, fearing that Kong Xiaoxiao would try to snatch it away: "It's not heavy, don't worry about it."

Kong Xiaoxiao sighed. It must be very depressing to be spoiled by most people in the village!

All the way, Kong Xiaoxiao was thinking about how to give back to the village. It is impossible to give money every time she makes money. What if this way, some people become ungrateful or lose their ambition?

My mind was racing, thinking about the livelihood I had in my previous life but no longer had at this moment.

Handbag? Backpack?

No, these are easily imitated.

Moreover, the villagers’ craftsmanship is definitely not as good as that of the professional embroiderers in the town, so this can only be a short-term livelihood.

Soap? She didn't know how to make it, she just knew she needed lard.

How about tofu? She only saw soybeans but no tofu, which proved that no one knew how to make tofu. Could she give it a try?

Xiao Fu felt the host's entanglement and couldn't help but say, "Host, tofu is OK. This business is easy and no one can imitate it. After all, tofu has many extension products, such as stinky tofu, dried tofu, bean curd skin, etc."

Kong Xiaoxiao also nodded and said, "Well, I've thought of it. Let's start with tofu, and then slowly develop the extended products. Don't release them all at once, or everyone will get tired of them sooner or later."

The best thing is to release a new product every once in a while, so that customer stickiness is strong.”

But regarding the tofu issue, she was still a little hesitant.

Because she was afraid that the villagers would not be able to hold on. After all, their village had no support. Once the tofu was released, even if it was not a big hit, at least it would help the villagers get out of poverty, so there would always be people who would be interested.

But then she thought again that the business she was doing now might not be able to become their backing in the future. When she became famous and had a high status, those powerful people would still give her face.

After all, no matter who you offend, it is best not to offend a Taoist priest who knows mysterious arts.

After thinking it over, Kong Xiaoxiao made the final decision.

"Okay, tofu then."

Soon they arrived at the village.

"Hey, Xiaoxiao, why did you come back with this brat?"

Grandma Liu happened to be at the door of her house. Seeing this, she walked up and pulled Xiaoxiao to her side.

"Grandma Liu, just tell me what you mean? Are you afraid that I will lead my little sister astray?"

Fang Erwa felt as if Grandma Liu was stabbing him in the heart and looked at her with a wronged expression.

Kong Xiaoxiao wanted to laugh when she saw Fang Erwa acting funny, so she came to the rescue.

"Grandma Liu, I'm doing business in town now, and Uncle Fang was afraid that I would be bullied, so he asked Brother Erwa to protect me."

When Grandma Liu heard this, the look of disgust on her face became even more obvious: "He protects you? No, he's not reliable. How about letting my eldest grandson protect you?"

The more Grandma Liu looked at Fang Erwa, the more he seemed unreliable. He was always fighting and his sloppy image was no match for Xiaoxiao.

Her eldest grandson Kong Ci is 15 years old. He is steady and works as a waiter in the town, so he can also take care of Xiaoxiao. Otherwise, her second grandson Kong Xiaofang can also do it. He is 13 years old.

"Grandma Liu, my dear grandma, please don't do that. Brother Ci is making money in town. If you ask him to look after me, it would be a waste of his talent.

Besides, if you don't believe me, you should believe Grandpa De. He knows all this. Not only can I make money now, but I can also protect myself. If you don't believe me, wait a few days and you will know what I said. "

Kong Xiaoxiao calculated that the Zhang family would come to the village with generous gifts to thank her in two days. By then, everyone in the village would know her abilities and would no longer worry about her.

She is over 40 years old in both her previous and current life, and it feels very awkward for her to be protected by a group of little brats.

And they are all child laborers, which is unacceptable!

Seeing that Xiaoxiao was getting stubborn, Grandma Liu had no choice but to give up.

Kong Xiaoxiao asked Fang Erwa to bring some food back, but Fang Erwa ran as if a dog was chasing him and disappeared.

Kong Xiaoxiao had to cook for herself.

Put the lean meat I bought away separately for now. This will be tomorrow's dish.

Let’s eat white radish stewed with bones tonight.

Take out the big bones, wash them and blanch them in water, then stew them first.

I also put a bowl of rice on the soup. When the soup is ready, the rice will be ready as well. It’s very convenient.

Then I went to the backyard, pulled out a big radish, cut it up, and poured the radish in when the bones were almost healed.

Finally, take out the iron pot you bought and wash it clean, and then use it to boil the lard.

In her previous life, her family boiled lard by adding water, which made it white and fragrant. So today she must have boiled it by adding water according to the method of her previous life.

After cutting the purchased lard into blocks, add water to the pot, turn on the fire, pour all the cut lard into the pot, and wait for it to simmer slowly.

Slowly the oil came out and the fragrance was everywhere. I used my small hole to absorb the oil smell, it was really fragrant.

After waiting for a while and seeing that the oil is almost out, pour the oil in the pot into the oil can. Then use a spatula to press down the oil in the pot to let as much oil as possible come out. This way, the remaining oil cakes are not only not greasy, but also crispy. They are very delicious when sprinkled with salt.

After the oil is boiled and the bone soup is almost ready, pour the chopped radish into the pot.

You can start eating after waiting for a while.

Perhaps the smell of oil drifted away, and Kong Xiaoxiao heard the voice of Mrs. Kong Zhu making indirect accusations.

"Eat, eat, eat. You are a family of money-losing people. Even if I ask you to cook, you will burn the rice. Don't even think about eating today."

"You bastard, you vixen, why doesn't God come and take you away?"

"You are destined to be a star of misfortune, but you are still giving me the power to show off."

……

Kong Xiaoxiao shook her head and ignored him. She was going to start eating.

This day is pretty good.
