Traveling through time and space to become a child, supporting the family by catching fish and shrim

Lu Ting was a little confused and said, "Scholar, what do you mean by this way of making money?"

Chen Lang said: "Literally."

Lu Ting pushed Ping An, who had just stood up, back down and said, "Hurry up, keep kowtowing."

Chen Lang didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and pulled Ping An up again: "One kowtow is enough."

"Xiao Qi, bring the things here."

Xiao Qi came over holding two jars.

Chen Lang said, "Village Chief, please bring two basins, one large and one small, and fill them with water."

After Lu Ting brought the basin over, Chen Lang threw a small piece of saltpeter into the basin.

After a while, the water in the small basin began to freeze.

Ping'an's eyes widened, and he tugged at his grandfather's sleeve, shouting, "Grandpa, ice! Ice!"

Lu Ting reached out and touched it, confirming that there was indeed ice in the small basin. Then he looked at Chen Lang with admiration in his eyes.

It's that kind of worship of God!

Chen Lang didn't explain much, because even if he did, Lu Ting wouldn't understand.

In addition, Chen Lang himself had forgotten the principle of making ice with saltpeter and only knew the method.

It would take some time for the ice to freeze completely, so Chen Lang brought everyone to the kitchen. After asking Xiao Qi to light the stove, he grabbed a handful of soybeans and put them into the pot and stir-fried them.

After frying, remove the skin, put it into a mortar and pound it into powder, mix it with water, and pinch it into soybean flour balls.

At this time, the ice outside had completely frozen. Chen Lang asked Xiao Qi to chop off a piece with an axe, chop it as much as possible, and then sprinkle the soybean flour balls on the smoothie.

Chen Lang picked up the bowl and said, "This is called Bingxue Lengyuanzi. It's an excellent cold drink to beat the heat."

"When the weather gets warmer, you can take this stuff to the county town and sell it. It won't be a problem to sell it for more than 20 coins each."

"If you want to sell it at a higher price, you can add some honey or some fruit to the soybean powder, and the price can go up another seven or eight cents."

Lu Ting was in tears. In his mind, he had already equated Chen Lang with an immortal. Chen Lang was using his immortal magic to help their entire village.

"Mr. Xiucai, you are the great benefactor of our Qingniu Village. I will have every household offer you a tablet and burn three sticks of incense every morning and evening to thank you for your great kindness."

Lu Ting said while wiping away tears.

Chen Lang's mouth twitched, and he said, "Village Chief, there's no need for a tablet."

"I still have to go to Qinzhou Prefecture to take the exam, so I can't stay long. I'll take my leave now."

"If I have the chance someday, I will come back to visit you all."

After saying that, he pulled Xiaoqi and walked out quickly.

Lu Ting said a few words in Ping An's ear, Ping An nodded, and ran away over the wall.

When Chen Lang's carriage arrived at the village entrance, he found that the village entrance had been blocked by the villagers of Qingniu Village.

Like a magic trick, Lu Ting walked out from the back of the crowd and shouted, "Kneel!"

The villagers knelt down in unison and said, "Thank you, Immortal."

Xiao Qi was startled and said, "Master, they are calling you an immortal."

Chen Lang got out of the car and patted Xiao Qi: "Don't join in the fun."

Then he jumped out of the car, walked quickly to the villagers, and said anxiously: "Fellow villagers, there is no need to do this. Please get up quickly."

Lu Ting said: "Great grace from the Immortal..."

Chen Lang said with a stern face, "Village Chief, if you really think I'm a god, then tell the villagers to get up immediately, or I'll take back your money-making method."

Only then did Lu Ting signal the villagers to stand up.

Chen Lang said, "Live a good life in the future. When you make money, invite the teacher to come to the village to give lessons. Children still need to learn some cultural knowledge."

"If you encounter any difficulties in the future, you can send someone to Nanhe County to find me. My name is Chen Lang, remember?"

Lu Ting nodded: "I will never forget the name of the Immortal even until I die."

Chen Lang didn't want to correct their address, so he waved his hand and said, "I really have to leave, otherwise I will be late for the exam."

"Please make way."

Lu Ting waved his hand, and the villagers took the initiative to move to both sides, making way for a passage.

Chen Lang was about to get on the carriage when he suddenly remembered something. He walked back to Lu Ting and asked in a low voice, "Village Chief, I have a question for you. Do you remember the charity cemetery not far from the village?"

Lu Ting said: "I have an impression, what's wrong?"

"Is there anyone living there?" Chen Lang asked.

Lu Ting sighed and said, "Have you seen that person?"

Chen Lang shook his head, "I didn't see it, I just heard the sound."

Lu Ting said, "That was a poor woman. Her husband and child committed suicide one after another because of vitiligo, and she went crazy."

"We had no other choice but to arrange for her to live in that abandoned charity home. We would visit her every once in a while and bring her some food."

Chen Lang felt relieved. It seemed that it was this crazy woman who scared Xu Mengru half to death that night.

Not a ghost, nor a bandit.

Chen Lang bowed and said, "Goodbye."

Lu Ting said: "I wish you success in high school!"

……

Chen Lang returned to the inn in the county town and briefly told Xu Mengru about the situation in the village, especially explaining the incident in the charity cemetery to her so that this girl would not think about it all day long.

Although it was still early, Chen Lang decided to stay in the inn for one more night.

The reason is simple, he wants to take a shower.

It rained for two days straight and my hair became tangled.

After leaving this county town, the next few days will be spent surviving in the wilderness. If I don’t take this opportunity to take a shower and wash my hair, the next few days will definitely be miserable.

After taking a comfortable hot bath and sleeping soundly on the soft bed of the inn, the convoy continued its journey early the next morning after enjoying a hot breakfast at the inn.

There were no other troubles on the rest of the journey.

Chen Lang and his party successfully arrived at Qinzhou Prefecture, the capital of Qinzhou Road.

After showing the ivory cards, road books, etc. to the soldiers guarding the city, Chen Lang successfully entered Qinzhou Prefecture.

Qinzhou Prefecture and Guangling Prefecture look similar, or in other words, large cities in ancient times like this all looked similar.

Chen Lang had already seen Guangling Prefecture, so after taking a few glances at the streets, he lost interest in continuing to observe.

Xiao Qi, on the other hand, was very excited. He looked left and right, wishing he had a few more pairs of eyes.

At a fork in the road, Xu Mengru opened the car window and said to Chen Lang, "Mr. Chen, let's part ways here."

"I wish you all the best in your upcoming exams."

Chen Lang returned the greeting with a smile, saying, "With Miss Xu's good wishes, I also hope that you can handle your family affairs peacefully and without complications."

Afterwards, the two carriages headed to different streets.

Chen Lang learned the exact location of the examination hall from a street vendor. Just as he was about to leave, the vendor suddenly said, "Sir, are you here to take the exam? The inns near the examination hall are full now. There are no vacancies."

"I have a good inn to recommend. If you're interested, I can take you there and give you a 20% discount on food and accommodation."

Chen Lang shook his head and refused, signaling Xiao Qi to leave quickly.

Xiao Qi was puzzled. The food and accommodation were so cheap, why didn't the young master even want to take a look?

After asking this question, Chen Lang said calmly, "As a stranger in a new place, the most trustworthy places are the big inns and restaurants. They may be a bit expensive, but they are safe and guaranteed."

"Ninety-nine percent of the things recommended by street vendors are shady shops."
