Dressed as a top-notch girl, leading the whole village to become rich
Chapter 87 Letters
Ali didn't take the medicinal herbs home, but sent them directly to the cave.
In order to prevent the medicinal materials from getting damp and moldy, he also purchased a lot of oil paper and oil cloth this time, wrapped the medicinal materials in three layers inside and three layers outside, and then placed them in the innermost corner.
My aunt said that this is called preparing for a rainy day. I always feel that Daqing is going to go to war. He asked several times about the specific reasons, but my aunt just told him to observe more.
Ye Li himself expressed confusion, but this incident indirectly made him study harder.
The people selling soybean oil here all go back to the village together. There is no other intention, but they are mainly afraid of meeting bad people on the road.
The village head had discussed this with the elders before he came. After selling the oil, he also bought ox carts, a total of 7 ox carts, enough for everyone to sit on, and one was left for Ye Li.
The men in the family were the ones who went to sell oil. When baskets of copper coins were carried into the ancestral hall, the women who were watching shouted louder and louder.
Ye Guo could hear it even across half the village.
"Aunt, this recipe for oil extraction is yours, why don't you come over?" Xiaowan was very puzzled. The two of them were digging in the vegetable garden.
"It's mainly because I don't have enough time and energy. Otherwise I could go and join in the fun."
"I heard that the village head bought half a pig and wanted to give the meat to every family."
"So, if you want to protect your ears, it's better to stay away."
Ye Guo put the sprouted pepper seeds wrapped in cloth in the basket and placed them in a small hole.
Small holes were connected to each other, and soon a small bowl of seeds was planted in the ground.
Ye Wan expressed her confusion. Just this chili pepper? Is it more important than selling oil in the village?
Although there are chili peppers in Daqing, almost no one ate them before. It was not until Xiaowan made chili sauce that people in the village gradually tried to use chili peppers as a garnish for dishes.
However, there have not yet been people like Ye Guo who fry peppers and eat them directly in modern times.
Chili is the soul of Hunan cuisine.
If this thing can be popularized, that would be a real way to make a fortune.
After his trip to Lingnan, Ye Guo's mentality did not remain completely unchanged.
For example, she has already planned to follow the mainstream of Daqing and make it her ideal goal to live in the imperial city as soon as possible.
The reason was simple: everything that Daqing had, should also be available in the Imperial City. Just for this reason, she had to go to the Imperial City.
"But if you don't go, how are you going to split the money?"
"Dad and big brother are gone. At worst, there are still the elders. The most important thing now is the chili pepper."
"Chili peppers have a strong vitality and are useful for more things than you know."
"Let me give you an example. Villagers sell soybean oil, but if you add chili peppers, you can sell chili oil."
Ye Wan's eyes lit up when she heard this, "Aunt, you are so smart, why didn't I think of it?"
Ye Guo just smiled and said nothing. The reason, of course, was that he was well-informed.
After sowing the peppers, I went to the yard and turned over the other vegetable seeds to be planted in the fall to prevent them from over-sunning.
The land of poor families is always busy from the beginning of the year to the end of the year. Even if weeds grow in the land, they may be able to eat two crops.
In order to harvest early, seedling cultivation is the most direct method.
After finishing all this, it was already noon. After lunch, Ye Guo should have taken a rest.
But she couldn't sleep because she was thinking about the letter that Ali brought back, so she thought about diverting her attention and made some snacks for the two little ones.
All the children in the village went to join in the fun, and the two younger ones were not left out, so they are not at home now.
Ye Guo walked around the house, the yard, and the kitchen for a few times, and finally went to the vegetable garden to pick pumpkins.
In fact, sweet potato chips are the best, but there are the most pumpkins in the garden this year.
There was another reason. She wanted to eat melon seeds. Pumpkin seeds are very good. Eating them raw can kill insects. For Daqing, which has no reliable insecticides, pumpkin seeds are very friendly.
If you want to do it, just do it. Ye Guo asked Xiaowan to set up two or three bamboo poles in the yard.
Let him start peeling the pumpkin, take out the pumpkin core and put it in a basket on the side, then cut it into thick circles and string them on a bamboo pole like a wreath.
"I guess this will require four or five days of continuous sunshine. If it rains, we'll have to eat pumpkin soup instead." Ye Guo said as he changed into dry clothes and stood under the eaves.
"There are so many pumpkins this year that we can afford to waste them. But, aunt, what are we going to do with these six or seven big pumpkins left?"
“Steamed, then mashed and re-made into pumpkin slices.”
After receiving the instructions, Ye Wan went to the kitchen to get busy.
Ye Guo was left alone, falling asleep on a recliner in the yard.
Half asleep and half awake, she heard someone shouting, so she opened her eyes and saw Ali's happy face.
The two of them greeted Ye Wan and went to Ye Guo's room.
After opening the bag, Ye Li counted and found that there were six letters in total. Then, some letters, when opened, only had two or three sheets of paper, or even less.
"Uncle Sun is very generous. Unlike my father, every letter he writes is full of words." Ye Li Hengqiu complained in a mature manner.
After I finished speaking, I heard no reply. I looked up and saw my aunt, who was reading the letters one after another at a glance.
Ye Guo's previous arrangement was that he would look after his father's, and she would look after Uncle Sun's first.
Now she was about to come to his desk to get the letter, and he was so scared that he quickly lowered his head to read.
It doesn't matter if you just look at it, but after seeing it, everyone is dumbfounded.
What do you mean? His health has improved a lot. He set up a workshop there and split the profits with Uncle Sun in a 30:70 ratio. In just half a month, he has made a lot of money.
There was a reason why the letters were thick. They contained silver notes, one for one hundred taels each. Except for the first letter, every other letter had one.
What Sun Qian talked about was mainly about Ye Laoer's health, from taking medicine to eating, from taking walks to sleeping... no matter how big or small the matter was, Ye Guo felt that Uncle Sun had the hidden attribute of being a nanny.
The rest of what he talked about was all business matters. Only one of his ships went to the Imperial City, and it was expected that he would be able to return home in a month and a half.
The salt permits had already been sold and he had made a lot of money, so he planned to bring back a batch of goods from Lingnan. It was said that there would be a lot of gold, silver and jewelry brought from foreign countries on the sea.
Ye Guo: The Eight-Nation Alliance is definitely our eternal enemy. I really want to know how Daqing's coastal defense is now?
Sun Qian also said that he had finally succeeded in persuading Ah Cheng to study, and with luck, he might become a scholar.
Ye Guo smiled and said nothing.
Asking others to do things that you cannot do yourself will only add to your troubles. Just let everything be as it is.
If they failed the imperial examination, Ye Guo had even thought of a way out for them. They had to thank Ye Xuan for this. According to him, Daqing could actually donate money to become an official.
The serious kind, the kind that you buy with money.
Therefore, making more money is the key.
