The couple in the last days traveled to ancient times, farming and storing grain and meat in the war

Xiao Yan originally planned to ride a horse to the provincial capital to take part in the provincial examination, but considering that Xu Ji and Xie Jing also wanted to take the exam, neither of them had a horse at home.

Xiao Yan simply stopped riding the horse and let his servant Xiao Jia drive the carriage. He sat in the carriage and then took Xu Ji and Xie Jing to the examination hall in the provincial capital on the way to the town.

In the past two days, Xiao Jia and Jiang Yi have learned how to drive a horse-drawn carriage.

The next day, because the city was quite far away, Jiang Ningning and the others only sent Xiao Yan to the village entrance.

It was delivered to the village entrance early in the morning.

All the members of the Xiao family also came early to see them off.

Xiao Yan had clearly said that they didn't need to ask the tribe members to send it off, but Xiao Fuhua and the other tribe members still said happily, "We haven't sent it off before, so let us do it this time."

They had wanted to send it before, but they didn’t know whether Xiao Yan would take it or not. Unlike this time, they all knew that he wanted to take it.

Even the village head came before dawn.

The village chief naturally came too.

Xiao Yan looked at his wife with some helplessness. With so many people coming to see him off, he would feel sorry for them if he failed the exam.

Jiang Ningning used her eyes to tell her husband: "At least you can keep a normal mind, don't be afraid."

Indeed, we have all seen the big storms and waves in the end of the world, so why should we be afraid of these small storms and waves?

Xiao Yan burst out laughing.

Xu Ji and Xie Jing were still waiting in the town, so Xiao Yan didn't delay any longer and got on the carriage and left.

The servant Xiao Jia immediately drove the carriage to take their young master to take the exam.

When they arrived in the town, Xu Ji and Xie Jing were already waiting there with their things. Their families were also there, so Xiao Yan hurriedly got off the carriage.

As they were in a hurry to enter the examination hall, they didn't have time to exchange pleasantries. After just a few words, Xiao Yan, Xu Ji and Xie Jing hurriedly got on the carriage and headed for the provincial capital.

It took more than two hours to reach the provincial capital.

Many people have already entered the examination hall. Fortunately, considering that the provincial examination is held in the provincial capital and some people have a long way to go, the government stipulates that anyone can enter the examination hall before dusk on that day.

Thinking that they could not come out after entering the examination room and would have to wait until the exam was over, Xiao Yan and the others simply had lunch outside before entering the examination room.

Only after seeing his son enter the examination room did Xiao Jia drive his carriage back.

He will come to pick her up on the day his son finishes his exams.

When Xiao Jia returned to Zaoshu Village, it was completely dark.

Jiang Ningning had nothing to worry about her husband. It was Tian and the others who were completely relieved when they heard that Xiao Yan had entered the examination room safely.

After all, they had heard that some people might not be able to get in even if they arrived at the examination room on time for one reason or another.

Old Lady Sun stayed at Jiang Ningning's house for another two days and began to miss home. Coincidentally, Sun Wansong saw that his mother had stayed there for so many days and had not returned yet, so he came to see her.

It was also to pick up Old Lady Sun.

Jiang Ningning and the others were unable to keep them, so they could only send their servant Jiang Yi to drive the carriage to take Old Lady Sun and the others back.

On the seventh day of August, the weather became a little cooler.

Seeing that the temperature was suitable for growing white fungus, Jiang Ningning hurriedly hired some people from the village to come to Wufang to grow white fungus.

After all, so many rooms in the house are used to grow white fungus, and she and her family are simply too busy to handle it.

The core technology that white fungus must be inoculated with a companion fungus, the ash fungus, is naturally in the hands of Jiang Ningning and the others, and they have not told anyone else.

In addition, in order to expand the planting, even if they are not told, the hired people will know.

Because many people were hired and various raw materials such as pottery jars and racks were prepared in advance, it only took three days to fill all the rooms in the workshop with white fungus.

As the weather got cooler, ice jelly was not selling as well, so naturally we stopped selling it.

In the two shops, the barbecue business naturally picked up again during the day.

Because the weather was cooler, Jiang Ningning finally took out her two small jars of fermented tofu to show the Xiao family and wanted to teach them how to make fermented tofu.

“That’s it. I told you a long time ago that I also made a soy product. I just hadn’t finished it yet, and I didn’t know if it was successful or not.

"Even though it was successful, I still didn't rush to tell you because it was too hot. The tofu would have spoiled easily if it was placed in the straw, so it wouldn't have been possible to make it the way it is. That's why I waited until now to tell you." Jiang Ningning said to Xiao Fuhua and the others in the soy product workshop.

Xiao Fuhua and the others naturally knew that Jiang Ningning had said this a long time ago, but since Jiang Ningning never mentioned it again, they thought that she had not succeeded and did not care.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Ningning suddenly brought two small jars and said that they had succeeded. Naturally, they were all very surprised.

Many of them couldn't help but rub their hands together, unable to conceal their excitement.

Everything that Ning Yatou figures out is good stuff. This must be a good thing and will sell well!

Xiao Fuhua and the others naturally didn't rush to say anything, and they were waiting eagerly for Jiang Ningning to finish her words.

"I made this on May 13th. After sealing the jar, I tasted it every two weeks. I found that after the tofu is made like this, the longer it is kept, the more fragrant it becomes." Having said this, Jiang Ningning let everyone taste it.

He also said, "This goes really well with rice, so I think we can sell it as a side dish."

"Oh, oh, oh." Xiao Fuhua and the others nodded continuously before quickly trying it. It was delicious, and it went really well with rice, making them want to slurp up two mouthfuls of rice.

But some people with a more sensitive sense of taste and smell immediately discovered that this thing used wine.

Jiang Ningning nodded: "Yes, wine was used. It was high-proof liquor. The jar that didn't have wine in it had already gone bad and was thrown away by me. Only the two small jars that were used with high-proof liquor are becoming more fragrant as they age.

And it has been almost three months, and there is no sign of spoilage.

Apparently it will last a long time.

So I think the white wine not only enhances the flavor, but also allows the fermented tofu to last longer."

Xiao Fuhua and the others nodded their heads.

"But if we use strong liquor," Jiang Ningning added, "the cost will definitely be much higher.

Moreover, due to natural disasters in the north, the imperial court no longer allows the production of wine as before, which has caused the prices of those wines to rise a lot. Now, fermented tofu is only sold as a side dish. Even if we have the money to make it, people are reluctant to spend so much money on it.

After all, if the capital goes up, the selling price will naturally be high. Otherwise, you won’t make any money, so it’s better not to do this business.

What I mean is that I should teach you how to make this first, and then when the court allows wine making and the price of wine drops, you can make this fermented tofu and sell it.

When the time comes, we can sell it as a meal. A small jar can last for a long time and it is not expensive, so I am sure many people will buy it.

What do you think?

Xiao Fuhua and the others hurriedly said, "We don't need to look at it, we don't need to look at it. Fortunately, you have thought of this for us, otherwise we would have foolishly gone out to buy wine and sell it.

Okay, okay, let’s learn how to make this first, and then when the price of wine drops, we can make this fermented tofu and sell it.

I'm sorry to bother you teaching us again."
