A time-travelling peasant girl becomes a wealthy woman

Yu Zhenzhou confiscated it.

"I should be the one to thank your boy. If he hadn't discovered something and found a way to inform me, I wouldn't have known that there was a traitor in the camp who let people in."

"Why us?"

This is something Tang Jide has never been able to figure out.

"There have been many droughts in recent years, and the daily necessities in Matan have become increasingly scarce. Soldiers are not getting enough food, and horses are not well taken care of. They are becoming increasingly weak in fighting, so someone came up with a shady plan and wanted to start with merchants."

"Kidnap a wealthy businessman and exchange his property for his people."

Tang Jide couldn't believe it: "How can they be sure that the supplies can be transported from the city to the outside?"

"There are people in the camp who will pick us up and find a way to get us out."

Yu Zhenzhou wanted to hang up the traitor and beat him up, but unfortunately he no longer had the chance.

It's all caused by greed for money.

Yu Zhenzhou invited them to have dinner, and then kicked them out with their gifts.

The father and son had no choice but to hire an escort agency to escort them back.

The Tang family and Yu Zhenzhou can be said to have formed a good relationship.

After listening to the report from the general manager, Yu Zhenzhou remembered what happened at the border and asked him to bring the person to the study.

The chief steward received the order and went to the gate to invite someone.

Soon, Tang Jide came to Yu Zhenzhou's study, and the chief steward closed the door and left.

"Tang Jide has met the Duke."

Bow properly.

"No need to be polite."

After so many years, the boy who was once half-grown can now stand on his own.

"You came to see me for something?"

"I want to confirm the cooperation of fermented bean curd recipe."

"Fermented bean curd recipe? What is that?"

Tang Jide looked up at Yu Zhenzhou in surprise, as if he didn't expect that he didn't know about this.

Yu Zhenzhou was also a little confused. What kind of weird question was this kid asking all of a sudden?

"You... don't know about fermented bean curd?"

"do not know."

Tang Jide took a deep breath and recalled Tang Qian's report. After making sure that there was nothing missing, he asked again carefully.

"Is the Duke's seal black, with the word 'Zhen' on it?"

"Yes."

At this moment, Yu Zhenzhou also felt something was wrong.

He sat up straight and waited for Tang Jide to make his words clear.

Tang Jide explained to Tang Qian how he had discovered fermented bean curd in Linhai Town, how "someone" was protecting him, and how the two sides had signed a cooperation contract and were already building a workshop to start trading.

The more Yu Zhenzhou listened, the brighter his eyes became. Tang Jide, who was being stared at, felt a little creepy.

"Is Tang Qian sure?"

he asks.

"Although my second brother has been in Linhai Town for more than ten years, he has always been cautious in doing things. Moreover, it was a highly skilled secret guard who gave him the note and showed him the seal, so we believe it is true."

Tang Jide answered carefully.

Yu Zhenzhou's eyes at this moment were so fiery that they could melt him.

Suddenly I felt a little scared.

Neither of them spoke for a while.

“Who makes fermented bean curd?”

Tang Jide told Yu Zhenzhou about the situation of Huang Mulin's family, detail by detail.

"What did the note say?"

"Huang Mulin is mine."

"Huang Mulin?"

"She is the youngest daughter of the Huang family. She is five years old this year." Tang Jide thought for a moment and added, "She is very beautiful and very smart."

Yu Zhenzhou's expression suddenly became very excited, but he suppressed it.

"I understand. You go back first. Please stay in the capital for a few more days. I will go to take care of some things. I will go to Linhai Town with you in a few days."

Tang Jide obediently withdrew as he was told. When he reached the gate, he told the steward where he was staying. If Yu Zhenzhou was looking for him, he would send someone to inform him.

The chief steward agreed and politely escorted Tang Jide out of the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion.

After Tang Jide left, Yu Zhenzhou changed his clothes and entered the palace.

He came back towards evening, and immediately asked the chief steward to find some good things in the storehouse, and arranged for his personal guards to clean up. He went back to his bedroom and did something unknown. The oil lamp in the room did not go out all night.

Three days later, a convoy of ordinary-looking horse-drawn carriages drove out of the capital.

After leaving the city gate, three fast horses left five carriages behind and ran away quickly.

Tang Jidra pulled up the curtain of the carriage and looked at the figures going away. He seemed to be envious and sighing, but he was relieved in the end.

Not fake.

After Lao Tian's craftsmen had arranged their household affairs, they came to Linhai Town one after another. Huang Mulin's new home had to undergo preliminary preparations for construction according to local customs.

Huang Mulin had no experience with this, so he just watched his elders handle it quietly.

Choose an auspicious day first.

Second, prepare sacrificial items, such as pig heads, chickens, ducks, fish, meat, wine, rice, fruits, sugar cakes, etc. At the same time, you also need to prepare some incense, candles, paper money, etc.

Third, prepare the altar. Put up an altar with sacrificial items and offerings on it. You can decorate the altar with red paper or red cloth to express auspiciousness and joy.

Fourth, perform sacrificial ceremonies. Perform sacrificial ceremonies on the selected auspicious day and time.

Fifth, during the sacrificial ceremony, some blessing scriptures or prayers are read to express respect and prayers to the gods. At the same time, wine is poured on the ground to offer to the gods, and cakes and candies can be scattered around to show blessings.

Sixth, pray for the gods’ blessing. During the sacrificial ceremony, people pray to the gods for smooth house construction, safety and health of the family, and prosperity of the business.

Seventh, at the end of the sacrificial ceremony, paper money is burned to show respect to the gods. Then, the offerings on the altar are neatly put away and the altar is removed.

Finally, construction began.

After finishing all this, Huang Bo informed Lao Tian to take the craftsmen to Xiushan Village.

A batch of nanmu trees have been delivered. They are large in diameter and thick enough and are piled behind the adobe house where Huang Mulin lives. We have to wait for the rest. It is impossible to buy too much of such good wood at one time.

Old Tian was very excited to see such good nanmu. Among the large houses he had built in the provincial capital and the county town, no one had been able to come up with so much such good nanmu. The Huang family was indeed a hidden talent.

The several adobe houses that were originally occupied had to be demolished, and a row of adobe houses would be temporarily built closer to the village entrance for the builders to live in.

A large kitchen was also needed to be built, so Huang Bo hired a few middle-aged women who had free time to cook for the craftsmen at noon and in the evening. He brought the ingredients back from the town every morning.

The adobe house was demolished, and Huang Mulin's family had to temporarily live in the backyard of a shop in the town.

While waiting for the craftsmen, Lao Tian had already found someone in the town to inquire about the price for tiles, bluestone bricks and other items, and ordered enough goods, which would be delivered in batches.

This was something Huang Mulin and Lao Tian had agreed upon early on. He would be responsible for purchasing the materials, and he would just give her the list and settle the expenses.

The construction of the new house was in full swing, and the shops in the town had been renovated a few days ago. Huang Mulin and his family put their packed bags on the carriage, along with the fermented or unfermented fermented bean curd. Huang Bo stayed behind, and the others got on Old Wang's carriage and returned to the shops in the town.
