Quick Wear: I always have strange tricks to pass levels

Hu Li thought about it, of course he thought about it, he only had that little salary to use, and the prices in Heyuzhou were relatively low. If it was placed in the prosperous capital, he would have starved to death with that little money.

"Brother Jiang, do you have any ideas?"

Jiang Yu nodded and made up a random excuse: "On the way to escape the famine this time, I had the experience of talking to others. I heard that some wealthy businessmen like to eat things like fish and shrimp. These things are relatively rare and usually very expensive."

Hu Li had considered this idea, but it was aborted for various reasons. "Brother Jiang, what you said makes sense, but it takes time to ship our fish and shrimp out, and by the time we get there, most of them will be dead. It's okay in winter, but in summer, they'll emit a sour and foul smell."

Jiang Yu: "I read in a book that there is a method to freeze the fish in ice. This way, the fish can be preserved for a longer time."

Hu Li looked embarrassed: "But ice is also expensive."

Jiang Yu shook his finger and said, "This is easy. We just need to sell the fish at a higher price."

Hu Li's eyes lit up. His brother Jiang was still the smartest one. If he had this kind of brains, he wouldn't be afraid of not getting rich.

He did what he said. Even if Wei Hu was not in Heyuzhou, Hu Li would be the boss of Heyuzhou!

The plan was complete, but they encountered a new problem. They had fish and shrimp, and manpower, but where was the ice?

Whenever they were in doubt, they would ask Jiang Yu. In their eyes, Jiang Yu had become an encyclopedia. Jiang Yu did not disappoint them and took out saltpeter with a mysterious look on his face.

Hu Li looked at the small gray stone in Jiang Yu's hand and asked, "Brother Jiang, what is this?"

Jiang Yu didn't say anything. He walked to the table and threw saltpeter into the tea. The tea that was just emitting hot steam turned into ice in a short while.

Seeing such a magical sight, everyone was so amazed that they couldn't close their mouths. Hu Li came to the teacup, looked at it carefully, and even touched it with his hand.

"Brother Jiang, what is this?"

Jiang Yu was extremely proud. Is this what it felt like to conduct an experiment in front of an illiterate person? Meeting the admiring eyes of others was truly exhilarating!

"This is saltpeter. When it dissolves in water, it absorbs heat, and the water around it turns to ice."

Hu Li nodded. Although he didn't understand, Jiang Yu's explanation was so profound that he just nodded.

Jiang Yu took out another piece and said, "Just look for it according to this. Take as many as you can. We will need it in the future."

With a goal in mind, they were full of energy and couldn't wait to sell the fish and shrimp from Heyuzhou.

……

Wei Hu returned to Jiangjia Village after the house was built. After returning, he lay on the bed and fell into a deep sleep, snoring loudly.

"It seems that we won't be able to wait for the general to wake up today. We will come back tomorrow."

Hu Li shook his fan. No one knew where he learned it from, but he insisted that all elegant gentlemen did so.

Jiang Yu shook his head. It might be the aftereffect of going out to discuss business during this period.

Their fish and shrimp business is booming. Heyuzhou used to be a place that people were afraid of, but now vendors from other places have come here, and many new shops have appeared on the streets of Heyuzhou.

At Jiang Yu's suggestion, the place where Jiangjiacun used to live will be turned into an ancient version of a homestay after they leave. If you choose to live in the homestay, you can also grill fish with the locals in the yard.

Apart from anything else, the people who were born and raised in Heyuzhou are really good at grilling fish. Coupled with the seasonings sponsored by Jiang Yu, the reputation of Heyuzhou grilled fish has spread.

Even Wei Hu, who had no idea about it on the way, was asked several questions by others when he came back.

However, seeing Wei Hu's confused expression, they all thought that Wei Hu didn't want to pass on the secret recipe.

After Wei Hu woke up, he went to find Jiang Yu with a smile: "Brother Jiang, good news, the emperor knows that the bricks and cement are all made by you, and he wants you to be an official in the Ministry of Works in the capital."

Jiang Yu was horrified. Even though he had never seen an emperor in the ancient world, he had heard the saying "To serve the emperor is like serving a tiger". Moreover, killing people was not against the law in ancient times. If he got involved in any power struggle, his life might be lost in a minute.

He waved his hands repeatedly: "No, no, my parents are here. We have finally settled down here. I can't..."

Wei Hu laughed heartily. "Jiang Yu, I guessed you didn't want to go, and I've already turned it down for you." He pulled out a gold medal from his arms. "This is the death-free medal I got for you. You will be the county magistrate of Heyu Prefecture from now on."

Speaking of this, Wei Hu was very happy. Who said he was not smart? He had already expected that Jiang Yu didn't want to go to the capital. If this is not smart, then what is smart?

Those who went to the capital with Wei Hu had a lot to say. The general was happy, but they felt sorry for these irrelevant people.

Thunder, rain, and dew are all your grace.

Wei Hu was a straightforward man. When he refused, he didn't notice the emperor's ugly expression, but the people around him saw it. Only Wei Hu was still happy.

In other words, the current emperor was familiar with Wei Hu's temper and knew that he had no bad intentions, so he impatiently drove him away.

Before leaving, Wei Hu asked the emperor for a golden medal of immunity from death, and everyone else had to kneel down.

So General, you only care about Jiang Yu and don’t care about our life or death, right?

However, Jiang Yu didn't know all these things. He treasured the golden medal of immunity from death. It was a good thing whether it could be used or not. He had heard that the golden medal of immunity from death in the Tang Dynasty saved people in the Ming Dynasty.

……

Wei Hu walked onto the street. He didn't understand why Heyuzhou had become like this when he had only been away for less than two months. It felt like it could be compared to the water towns in the south of the Yangtze River.

He had never been so grateful for his original decision. Hu Li told him that He Yuzhou could have such a big change thanks to Jiang Yu.

If it continues to develop like this, Heyuzhou might even become a "small capital".

God knows how he was ridiculed by the hateful civil servants every time he went to the capital. Just because Heyuzhou was poor, no one wanted to be the county magistrate of Heyuzhou, which made Wei Hu very angry.

But they have no chance even if they want to. With the most suitable Jiang Yu here, the others should just stand aside.

He calculated the time and his eyes darkened. Usually at this time there would always be some ignorant minions coming over, but he couldn't let them ruin Jiang Yu's efforts of so many days.

Other people in Heyuzhou also thought so. They were very satisfied with the current Heyuzhou and could not let others destroy it. In the past, they disdained to participate in such things.

Although they also hated the Japanese pirates, those pirates were too weak and were usually used as training for new recruits.
