Beautiful Peasant Girl: The Young Marquis's Beloved

The next morning, Liu Donglai and Mu Lingxuan left with their men.

This time, the people who came back with them were still from Liujia Village, and of course there were also a few people from Mu Lingxuan.

However, only half of the people from Liujia Village returned. After all, they were now Liu Donglai's personal soldiers.

Although Liu Donglai and Mu Lingxuan had reported their departure from the team to Mu Jingfeng, they did so for personal reasons and it would not be good if the news got out, so Mancang and the others did not follow them back and stayed in the team to provide cover.

After they left, Liu Xu got busy. The Liu family specialty workshop was to be built. She drew the blueprints and it covered an area of ​​five mu. The location was chosen at the east end of the village, close to the water source.

It houses a slaughterhouse, office area, canteen and employee rest area.

The workshop is divided into two sections, one is the cured meat workshop and the other is the sauce making workshop.

The raw material processing room at the cured meat shop includes the raw material receiving area, cleaning area, cutting area, and pickling area; the pickling operation room includes the mixing area, static area, and quality inspection area; the drying and packaging room includes the drying area, air-drying area, and packaging area; and finally the storage room, which is divided into the finished product warehouse and the raw material warehouse.

The sauce factory also has a raw material processing room, which includes selection, washing, drying and cutting; there is a sauce frying room, which is responsible for frying the sauces; and then there is the packaging room, which is responsible for packaging and sealing the cooled sauces; the sauce factory also has a special storage room, not to mention the finished product warehouse.

The raw material warehouse needs special attention, as it is used to store soybean oil and spices used for frying. Some of these spices are prepared in the raw material processing room, and some are ground into powder by servants at home and then mixed according to the proportions. When using, just add them as required.

All warehouses are guarded every day. After all, one must be on guard against others.

After Liu Xu handed the blueprint to Zhu Jiacheng, she went to study her Tremella breeding. Before leaving, she asked He Lei to go to Zuiyunxuan in the town to send a letter to Chang Yifei. The recipes for mushroom cultivation and tofu making were to be sold, so of course she had to notify the largest buyer as soon as possible.

It would be great if the Chang family could take over everything.

In the mushroom room, the dead wood that Liu Xu had someone bring back had been sawed into pieces according to her requirements. Wu Sangui took good care of it, and in just a few days, the original small ears had grown a lot bigger.

Xing'er and Shuisheng had to go to school, so Liu Xu didn't go to call them, but tinkered at home. After all, there were many servants at home who could help.

"Miss, are you sure you want to pick these snow fungus? There are so many of them. Wouldn't it be a waste?" Qiao Yun felt a pang of pain in her heart.

"Cut it. You can't catch the wolf without sacrificing the lamb!" Liu Xu lowered his head and replied while cutting the white fungus into pieces.

Then he said to Han Duoduo, "Senior Sister, can you control your inner strength and help me break this piece of wood into pieces? Don't let it fly everywhere. Try to make it break in a more elegant way."

Han Duoduo: ...You've already cut it into pieces, why are you still arguing about being polite or not!

After working for a whole morning, Liu Xu finally put the mixed spores into a ceramic jar and placed it in the corner of the mushroom house, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

This thing is more troublesome than cultivating mushrooms, and I don’t know if it can succeed.

Afterwards, Zheng Li was asked to take people to Beilinpo to cut down a few old green oak trees. They came back and sawed them into sections, covered them with straw, and placed them where the sun couldn't reach.

I'm as fierce as a tiger, I hope I won't be an idiot.

After finishing all this, it was already approaching June.

That afternoon, Chang Yifei arrived exhausted, accompanied by a middle-aged man. This man was the trusted assistant assigned to Chang Yifei by the head of the Chang family.

When he arrived, he didn't say anything and just scolded Mu Lingxuan in front of Liu Xu.

Liu Xu's mouth twitched when she heard this, "Third brother, do you want me to enter the palace?"

"How is that possible!" Chang Yifei immediately retorted, you are kidding, entering the palace! Competing with a group of people in the harem for a man, Liu Xu is afraid that she will kill that man directly.

"That's it!" Liu Xu rolled her eyes at him.

"Tsk tsk, they haven't even gotten married yet, and they're already protecting each other. Girls are really shy!" Seeing that there was no surprise on her face when she mentioned the marriage, Chang Yifei stopped talking and started teasing Liu Xu instead.

"Tsk, you single guy don't understand!"

Chang Yifei: ... "Don't expose someone's shortcomings!"

"Are you stupid? If you don't expose the shortcomings, then what are you going to do?

Liu Xu didn't want to talk nonsense with him anymore, so she took the initiative to ask him if it was about mushrooms and tofu.

"Tell me what you think!"

As soon as the matter of business was discussed, our young master Chang immediately became normal.

Liu Xu didn't say much. She showed the planning proposal she wrote to Chang Yifei while she drank tea on the side.

"I also want the tofu making technology, you can give it to me too! You guys are too busy anyway, just sell it to me. I won't give you cash, all the tofu shops will share the profits between you two, how about that?"

Liu Xu glanced at him... "It's a good idea, but I won't sell them all to you."

"It doesn't matter who you sell it to! How can I cheat you?"

Liu Xu heard this and said helplessly, "So I can't cheat you!"

Seeing that he looked puzzled, Liu Xu briefly repeated her analysis.

"What you said makes sense. I'll have someone spread the news as soon as possible, and then I'll join in the fun."

Liu Xu did not refuse, she knew that Chang Yifei was doing it to support her.

"You can also have people grow the mushrooms in the store, so you don't have to worry about transportation issues."

"Ok, I know!"

The brother and sister chatted about Zhenxiu Pavilion for a while. Knowing that Chang Yifei had been running back and forth between other counties and the provincial capital these days, they couldn't help but sigh that compared to Chang Yifei, they were indeed a bit lazy.

When Xu Ruolan and her family came back and saw their godson (and grandson), they were very happy.

I hurriedly asked the kitchen to add more dishes in the evening and make a few of his favorite dishes.

"My godmother is still the best!"

"Flattery!"

"Godmother, my little sister called you a horse!"

"Want to fight?"

"No, I'm a man and I don't want to fight with women!"

Everyone in the room was delighted to see the brother and sister bickering.

When Ye Miaoyin and her daughter came in, they saw this happy scene.

"Aunt Ye, Sister Duoduo!" Chang Yifei saw the mother and daughter at a glance and hurriedly saluted.

Liu Xu was a little surprised by the respectful attitude.

"Hurry up, we are all family, don't be so weird!" Ye Miaoyin said with a smile.

"Yeah, a family!" Chang Yifei said, stealing a glance at Han Duoduo.

This glance of his happened to be seen by Liu Xu, who couldn't help but raise an eyebrow. Liu Xu then looked at his senior sister, as if thinking about something.

Third brother and senior sister! Don’t mention it, they are quite a match. I just don’t know what their current situation is.

So, at the following dinner table, Liu Xu observed secretly.

It turned out that during the meal, Chang Yifei looked at Han Duoduo more than ten times, but her senior sister was busy eating the whole time!

He looked at Chang Yifei with some sympathy. The revolution has not yet succeeded, comrades still need to work hard!
