Traveling through ancient times, the spy princess had everything going smoothly

After returning home, Uncle Dashan and Uncle Dazhu were waiting for her at home. They said that all the materials for building the house were ready and they could start construction tomorrow. After they settled the relevant matters, they went back and she only needed to come tomorrow.

I cooked the braised meat for Aunt Chen and told her to prepare the braised meat ordered from Yuelai Restaurant starting tomorrow, and save the extra braised meat for the workers who were building the house. When Aunt Chen heard that she was going to use the braised meat that cost two taels of silver per plate in the restaurant to entertain the workers, she admired Qinghe even more, thinking that he was so generous and kind. In this way, the head of the family could also eat some meat, and she was even more grateful to Qinghe.

The next morning, after a string of firecrackers were set off, the construction of the new house of Chu Laoer's family began. Qinghe went to Linglong Pavilion to deliver the cloth as agreed. After looking at the clothes tailored by the embroiderers, she was very satisfied. They were indeed professionals, and their work was comparable to that of modern machines, with high standards and speed.

After saying goodbye to Cui Linglong, she brought the goods of Yuelai Restaurant and the corn prepared from the space to Yuelai Restaurant. This time she did not go to the third floor because Baili Ye was waiting for her on the first floor.

Seeing Qing He coming in, he immediately went forward to greet her. "Xiao He, you're here." He took the backpack from Qing He's hand.

The shopkeeper was about to go up to greet him, but when he saw that his master not only came to greet him personally, but also sent the things to him without the help of others, he couldn't help but feel confused and puzzled. He looked at Bai Yi Er with a puzzled look in his eyes: "Bai Yi, what's going on? Is there something happening that I don't know about?"

"What do you think?" An expression that said that's exactly what you saw.

At that time, the shopkeeper suddenly realized that Miss Chu had won the favor of the master and caught the master's eye. People said that the master was cold-hearted and had no love between men and women. What's more, some people talked about that the God of War Prince advocated homosexuality, so there had been no women around him for many years, not even a female mosquito. Although the God of War looked mighty, he actually didn't like women.

Now seeing the master's eyes glued to Miss Chu, there really is not a trace of Nanfeng at all. It really proves the saying that steel can be turned into soft silk after being tempered a hundred times. In the future, I must hold Miss Chu's thigh tightly and never treat her badly.

While Chu Qinghe was in a daze, she said to Baili Ye, "Yesterday I said I would make you something to eat. I brought it today and will let you taste it later. Please help me bring the basket to the kitchen."

Everyone was curious about what delicious food Miss Chu brought, and followed her into the kitchen. The chef in the kitchen greeted her with a smile when he saw her come in. Thanks to Miss Chu, the restaurant's business has been booming recently. They work non-stop every day and have no time to rest. Even so, they are very happy, because the shopkeeper has doubled their monthly commission. Now it is two taels of silver per month. No matter how tired or busy they are, they are happy.

After entering the kitchen and greeting everyone, Chu Qinghe took out the cornmeal to prepare for cooking. He took out some cornmeal and put it in a basin, added old flour and sugar, and set it aside.

Take out some cornmeal, put it in a bowl, add salt and five-spice flour, blanch it with boiling water, stir it into dough with chopsticks, and set it aside.

Put corn grits in another bowl, add red dates, wolfberries and water to wash, then pour into the pot, add water to light a fire and start cooking porridge. Put a grate on top of the iron pot, cover it with a cage cloth, and start making cornmeal steamed buns. After making half of it, add the freshly chopped wild vegetables to the rest, mix well and make wild vegetable steamed buns. When all is done, the grate is full.

At this time, the cornmeal has also been fermented. Put another grate there, press and knead the dough to release air and divide it into several dough pieces. Knead them well, put them on the grate, continue to ferment for a quarter of an hour, put them in the pot, and start steaming.

Then take out the pheasant mushrooms from the backpack, tear the mushrooms and soak them in water for later use, clean the pheasant and chop it, heat the oil in a pan, add the chopped pheasant when the oil is hot, stir-fry repeatedly, then add onion, ginger, star anise, pepper, cinnamon, and soybean paste to continue to stir-fry, add water and stew. As the water boils, the fragrance of the pheasant begins to spread. When the pheasant is cooked, add mushrooms to continue to collect the sauce and taste. Next, Chu Qinghe made dry-fried beans, flavored eggplant, vinegar cabbage, stir-fried large intestine and egg drop corn soup. When all the dishes were served, everyone was stunned by the table of delicacies. The golden corn steamed buns and steamed corn bread looked delicious, the wild vegetable steamed buns were yellow and green, beautiful and delicious, the egg drop corn soup was golden and dotted with white egg flowers, making people drool at the sight, and even the corn grits porridge exuded the fragrance of grain, making people unable to stop.

During the meal, Baili Ye kept picking up dishes to taste, nodding his head, and saying that the meal was delicious, completely breaking the rule of not talking while eating or sleeping. Bai Yier and Shi, the shopkeeper, stood by, drooling and swallowing their saliva, hoping that the prince would remember them and reward them with a meal. Unfortunately, their prince had no mercy at all and didn't even think of them at all.

After Baili Ye finished eating, he touched his stomach and said to Chu Qinghe with a look of unsatisfied desire: "Xiaohe, this corn rice is really delicious. Let's plant the corn quickly so that people all over the world can eat this delicious food."

"Okay, I'll start doing this when I get home today."

After returning home, Qing He went to the place where she had reclaimed wasteland to take a look. In just a few days, she had reclaimed a large area. When the village head saw her coming, he smiled and said, "He girl, we have reclaimed 30 acres of wasteland in the past few days. At this rate, we can reclaim 80 to 90 acres this month."

"Grandpa Lizheng, the work will go faster if you supervise me. I want to plant crops on the land I've reclaimed. Can you find some people to do the planting? The wages are the same as for reclaiming land, and the recruitment conditions are the same as for reclaiming land. They need to be hardworking and reliable, and work seriously. Two people are needed in a team, and each person must bring his own shoulder pole and bucket."

"He girl, the rice has been planted now, what crops do you want to grow?"

"Grandpa Lizheng, I bought some corn seeds at the seed store in town and plan to try planting them tomorrow."

"Corn seeds? What do they look like? We've never grown them here before."

"This is an imported product. It is said that it can produce 1,000 kilograms per mu. It is not picky about the soil and can produce a good harvest even in dry land. I plan to plant corn on all these fields."

"What? A thousand catties per mu? Are you serious, girl? If so, that would be great!" When the head of the village heard this, he was shocked as if he had been hit hard. If the yield per mu was really a thousand catties, then the problem of food would be solved. You know, now the rice yield per mu is only more than 300 catties, and there is not much left after paying the grain tax. People can only exchange it for coarse grains to make a living, and during the slack season, they have to eat wild vegetables for two meals a day to survive.

Qinghe knew how important food was and how much the village head wanted everyone to have enough food. She also hoped that everyone would have enough food to eat.

"Grandpa Lizheng, I don't know if it's true or not. I'll plant it first and see. It's just wasteland, and there's no tax on it when it's just grown. I'll know if it's true when it's ripe. But you can come to my house tonight to try the food made from corn, and then you can see how this thing tastes."
