Send me to the countryside? Turn around and make you homeless!

With this collision, the bowl of tofu in Tan Yuan's hand was almost knocked over. She finally managed to steady her steps and apologized to Secretary Zhou apologetically.

Secretary Zhou waved at Tan Yuan, indicating that he was fine, and then turned his gaze to the tofu in her hand.

"Is this tofu made by Yuhua, the daughter-in-law of the Zhao family?"

The full name of Old Zhao's daughter-in-law is Wu Yuhua. Early this morning, she carried two large loads of tofu and went around the village to exchange them for money.

The news that the sixth son of the Zhao family was sick had spread throughout the village. Everyone who heard about it would say it was pitiful. But it was just pitiful. Every family had a lot of adults and children. When they got sick, they would go to the village clinic to get some medicine. If they couldn't be cured, they could only rely on themselves to get through it. If they really couldn't get through it, they could only say that they had bad luck and hoped to be born into a good life in the next life.

It was rare for Xiao Liuzi to be sent to the county hospital for treatment in the village. One reason was that the distance was too far, and the other was that the village was too poor.

However, the newly arrived educated youth was willing to send it off and even paid for the medical expenses with his own money. We couldn't really spend the money that belonged to the educated youth, so we had to find a way to pay it back.

So when Wu Yuhua and her husband carried tofu around the village to exchange for money, most people in the village would buy two pieces, and Secretary Zhou's family was no exception.

No matter how poor you are, you can still help with some effort.

When Secretary Zhou saw the tofu in Tan Yuan's hand, he didn't think much about it. He just thought that the Zhao family had reserved a portion for her out of gratitude.

Thinking that Tan Yuan had also saved the children in the village, there was more kindness in his eyes when he looked at Tan Yuan.

Tan Yuan's mind is now spinning wildly, stimulating the crazy secretion of dopamine in her brain. She is extremely excited now.

After apologizing, she stretched her neck to look inside the brigade headquarters, wanting to explain in detail to the captain the solution she had come up with.

If this method works, the brigade won't develop much better in the future, but at least it will have more ways to make money, right?

Secretary Zhou saw what she was thinking and took the initiative to explain to her.

The team leader is not here, he has gone up the mountain. After a few days of hard work, the sweet potatoes have been almost transported up the mountain. It is estimated that in the next two days, the team will use the loudspeaker to ask the members and the educated youth to go to the warehouse and line up according to the number of people to receive the sweet potatoes.

Once he goes up the mountain, he won't be back until the sun sets at the earliest.

The captain was not there, but the real leader of the Huaiyin Brigade was standing right in front of him.

The inspiration was fleeting, and Tan Yuan looked at Secretary Zhou embarrassedly.

"Secretary, could you please listen to me and explain what I said? If there's anything I said that's wrong, could you please help me clarify it?"

Tan Yuan was so excited that she didn't care whether Secretary Zhou agreed or not. She pulled Secretary Zhou into the accounting office. Accountant Zhou was still sitting in the room, writing and drawing with a pen and paper in his hand, calculating how to divide the sweet potatoes.

Seeing Tan Yuan pulling Secretary Zhou in with such disrespectful behavior, he frowned unhappily. Just as he was about to scold Tan Yuan, Tan Yuan counterattacked him.

"Uncle Zhang, it's a good thing you're here. Please help me remember what I'm going to say later."

She was afraid that as soon as she finished speaking, her thoughts would become confused again.

A good memory is not as good as a bad pen. It is better to write down the general direction and then slowly discuss the details.

Accountant Zhang was stunned by the word "uncle". It seemed that he and this new educated youth were not that familiar with each other.

But he was already calling her uncle, and it was so natural. Wouldn't it be awkward if he didn't accept?

"Old Zhang, please remember this."

Secretary Zhou was old and thought he would no longer react to these things. However, he was now infected by Tan Yuan's eager excitement and really wanted to sit down and listen carefully to find out what was so good about the person Lin Guoan was so optimistic about and whether he had the real talent.

The boss had spoken, so Accountant Zhang, regardless of whether he wanted to or not, took out his notebook and began to prepare to listen to what kind of ivory Tan Yuan could spit out!

Tan Yuan placed the tofu in the middle of the table with a confident look on her face. She pointed with her finger and everyone's eyes were fixed on the white and tender piece of tofu!

"Secretary, Uncle Zhang, let's talk about tofu today!"

In her previous life, Tan Yuan had experience in running a factory, but the factory she opened was a garment factory.

When she went to the countryside, she had to follow the routine. She had to do whatever the team told her to do. In addition, there was a family of vampires like the Zhao family. She worked herself to death all day just to get full work points. She had no time to understand other things.

The idea of ​​making tofu came from her love of snacks made from soy products in her previous life. Once, she went on a business trip to a small county in Shu and even ate at a braised tofu restaurant. The queue there was so long that it was scary.

I asked the boss and found out that his family originally ran a restaurant. Unexpectedly, the dried tofu became so popular that they could make several thousand yuan a day just by selling this dried tofu at one yuan a piece.

Even a small piece of dried tofu is divided into three types according to taste, namely one-dried, two-dried, and three-dried. There is a lot of knowledge behind it.

"Secretary, I've been thinking that our Huaiyin Brigade has no money and no resources. But during these days in the countryside, I've seen that every household in our brigade has more or less planted soybeans in their private plots. Some people have also sown soybean seeds on the ridges and in the mountains..."

Soybeans can be made into tofu, like the tender tofu she placed on the table in front of her. It is not easy to preserve and can only be eaten on the same day it is made. It is definitely impossible for them to rely on this tender tofu to develop the brigade's economy.

However, after filtering the soybeans into soy milk and heating them, you can peel off the bean skins. After the bean skins are dried, they are much easier to preserve. You can just soak them in water when eating, whether you want to stir-fry them, cook them in a hot pot, or serve them cold.

Of course, tofu skin is not her target. Her real target is dried tofu, which can be divided into white dried tofu, fragrant dried tofu, vegetable dried tofu, soy sauce dried tofu, smoked dried tofu, and fermented moldy dried tofu.

They can now make white dried tofu. After making the white dried tofu, they add it into the brine made from medicinal herbs and spices and soak it. This is the five-spice dried tofu. People in Shu love to eat chili peppers, so they can add chili peppers to make it spicy.

The spicy flavor can be further divided into adding chili oil or pickled chilies in a jar. These are all acceptable.

"We'll use those small bags to package them, just like scallion biscuits, and cut them into small pieces. You can buy them individually or by weight. This way, people will definitely buy them!"

This is convenient and doesn't cost much. You just need to buy the marinade, but nothing else. Also, when the weather gets cold, you can make moldy tofu by adding chili powder and soaking it in oil. It is a great dish whether you eat noodles or with rice. You can even use it as a dipping sauce for hot pot. She doesn't believe that the people of Shu who love spicy food won't be tempted!
