Abandoned daughter takes charge of the family, so rich that even the best people can't envy

County Magistrate Wang also saw this girl at first, and he secretly complained:

Whose child is this? She is not watching the fun on the side of the road, but standing in such a conspicuous position. She is a country girl and doesn't know etiquette.

My daughter is sensible. When adults are talking about serious matters, the child will definitely not go out of the house.

But today he came with the main purpose of being close to the people.

The soybean oil business was booming, so of course he also tried the fried dough sticks and meatballs. They were delicious.

He secretly visited the county town for two days and found that soybean oil had unlimited business opportunities.

If he does it well, he will not only gain fame and fortune, but he can also get promoted.

You know, he has been a county magistrate for ten years. He was transferred from one county to another at the same time.

When Song Jinxiu saw the old monk greeting her, she could only put her hands together and said, "Amitabha, hello, Master."

The village head quickly introduced with a smile: "This is our acting clan leader."

The village head said to Song Jinxiu, "Jinxiu, come here and let me introduce you. This is our father and mother official, County Magistrate Wang."

Song Jinxiu smiled faintly, neither arrogant nor humble, and saluted County Magistrate Wang with a fist clasped. "Jinxiu, the Acting Clan Leader of Song Village, greets County Magistrate Wang."

Since the village head has said that she is the acting clan leader, she has to take over his honor and support him.

County Magistrate Wang looked at the legal advisor beside him: Is this the patriarch of Songjia Village?

The lawyer blinked. "Don't you know? This Song Village is so unknown, there's not even a scholar. Who would care about who will be the clan leader?"

County Magistrate Wang was stunned for a moment, then he laughed out loud, "Ahahaha, the young clan leader is young and promising, a woman is as capable as a man."

In reality, he was thinking: Isn't this Song Village just a mess? A little girl is the clan leader. Is this playing tricks on the whole clan? Or is she deliberately making fun of him?

But thinking about the purpose of his visit today, he concealed the annoyance in his eyes.

The village head formally led Song Jinxiu to meet the officials one by one. Everyone was secretly complaining: Is there no one left in Songjia Village? A little girl being the head of the clan is unheard of.

The old patriarch was very satisfied with his son's performance today.

Yes, that’s right. The little girl appeared before the county magistrate as the clan leader, and she could no longer shirk her responsibilities as the clan leader.

He looked at the officials with different expressions and laughed in his heart: I'm not afraid that you will look down on me now, but when you see the girl's ability later, you will have no choice but to admire her.

When the old monk was introduced, Song Jinxiu learned that there was a position called the Sangha Association in the county. It was usually held by monks, who were in charge of all the monks in the county.

The young Taoist priest was not young anymore, he was twenty-four or twenty-five years old, and he was the director of the Taoist Association, in charge of all Taoist priests in the county, issuing certificates of ordination and other matters.

Did County Magistrate Wang move the entire county government office here?

Everyone bowed and greeted each other. County Magistrate Wang got straight to the point, "Recently, the soybean oil from your village has become all the rage throughout Lunshan County. Is this soybean oil really made from soybeans?"

He looked at the soybeans over and over again, steamed them, and boiled them, but no matter what he did, they would not turn into yellow soybean oil.

So, he came today to check it out in person.

The lawyer quickly explained, "The county magistrate is concerned about the people's livelihood. This soybean oil is a new product, so it must be personally inspected by the magistrate to ensure peace of mind, right?"

The county magistrate also said, "Our county magistrate is very concerned about the people's livelihood. Your soybean oil is new and edible. How can he be assured if he hasn't personally inspected it?"

The Dianshi cleared his throat and said, "Lizheng Song, let me be frank with you. If this soybean oil of yours is harmful to your health, as the Dianshi, I will show no mercy!"

Song Jinxiu raised her eyebrows and glanced at County Magistrate Wang. He seemed not to have heard what his officials said and was chatting with a few elders.

Is this a way to show off their power first, so they can negotiate terms later?

The head of the village smiled and said, "Don't worry, Mr. Dianshi. We have tried this soybean oil for a few months. Just like rapeseed oil and sesame oil, it can be used for cooking, frying, and stir-frying. Think about it, our ancestors have been eating soybeans for generations, and this soybean oil is made from soybeans. Don't worry, it's very safe."

County Magistrate Wang then smiled and said, "I've also taken some time off to come here. Let's not waste time. Song Lizheng, please lead the way. Let's first see how this soybean oil is made."

The village head said quickly, "It's a rare occasion for such a distinguished official to visit us, and it's already this late. Let's eat first. We've specially prepared a soybean oil feast to welcome you all."

Soybean oil feast?

Everyone was indeed curious.

Minister of War Zhou Kunran may have eaten vegetable oil, and other high-ranking officials and nobles may have eaten it, but these officials in Lunshan County, including County Magistrate Wang, had never eaten it before.

So everyone moved to the head of the village's house. The second grandmother and the aunts and ladies in the village had been busy in the kitchen for a long time.

In addition to a few home-cooked dishes, the main dish is fried food.

Because Song Jinxiu said, everything can be blown up.

The first thing served was fried soybeans and various flowers.

Fried hibiscus flowers, fried pumpkin flowers, fried dried locust flowers...

Wash the flowers, coat them in egg liquid and deep-fry them until golden brown. They are crispy and have a floral aroma.

Then there are fried leaves, fried mulberry leaves, fried pepper leaves, fried perilla leaves, fried coriander...

Then fried chicken wings, fried chicken legs, fried chicken nuggets, fried crispy pork, fried meatballs, fried vegetarian meatballs, fried dough sticks, fried pancakes...

I have eaten fried meatballs, but I didn’t expect that flower leaves could also be fried. It’s so novel.

The officials ate until their mouths were full of oil. After eating and drinking bitter melon tea, County Magistrate Wang could no longer sit still and was even more eager to see the oil press workshop.

These fried foods were delicious, and soybean oil was economical and affordable. County Magistrate Wang could sense that soybean oil would soon become a household commodity.

Then the soybean oil business will have a bright future.

As the chief official of Lunshan County, he must report to the court such a good thing that happened within his jurisdiction and was related to the people's livelihood. This is a political achievement.

He glanced at Song Lizheng and Song Jinxiu. They were both ignorant fools and probably had no idea of the importance of soybean oil to the people's livelihood in Cangwu.

That's even better, we don't have to share the credit. It's better to benefit ourselves than to benefit others.

So he couldn't wait to visit the oil pressing workshop.

Once he understood everything, he would have his own people open an oil press workshop, and then write a memorial to the court, saying that this soybean oil was invented by his family. Then he would gain both fame and fortune...

When the village head heard this, he knew he couldn't escape it, but this matter was all arranged by Song Jinxiu.

So he said, "This soybean oil workshop is our clan's property. Our young clan leader is in charge of this matter. If you want to ask about the workshop, she will explain it to you."

"What? Such a big business, and you let a little girl be in charge?"

The village head said, "This oil press was invented by our young clan leader. Without her, we wouldn't have known that soybeans could produce oil in addition to tofu."

Everyone immediately looked at Song Jinxiu, and their initial disdain turned into inquiry.

County Magistrate Wang showed a sincere smile on his face.

Little girls are good, and little girls are easier to fool.
