After dying early, I traveled to ancient times and became a boy

Ye Xunqing didn't have time to lament other people's sorrows. He had to hurry up to make the mushroom and meat sauce. At the next big market, he had to take out more mushroom and meat sauce for the housekeeper.

But he can't keep making mushroom meat sauce. Once something comes out, there will definitely be people who will imitate it. Even if the recipe is not completely correct, it's okay to imitate it more or less.

The place where he lived was not very wealthy, and most people could not afford expensive things, so he had to make more food that everyone could afford, focusing on small profits but quick turnover.

When they got home, Ye Laosi and his friends hadn't come back yet. They must have gone to the mountains to look for mushrooms. In fact, Ye Xunqing didn't lie to them. Ancient people lived off the mountains and water. They didn't have the ability to grow mushrooms, so the mushrooms they ate were all wild, and the price of such mushrooms would not be cheap.

Shiitake mushrooms have a unique taste, and there are many wealthy families willing to buy them. As long as you pick them and sell them, there will be people who buy them, and you can make money once you sell them.

Ye Xunqing needs to make some money first, and then spread the method of stir-frying mushrooms and meat sauce. Meat, mushrooms and oil for stir-frying sauce are rare. Even if ordinary people know how to make it, they will not easily try it.

Moreover, Ye Xunqing understood the principle that a man may be innocent but possess a treasure. If he kept his money-making methods secret, there would be many people who would envy him. He and Xiaobai were brothers, and without the power to protect themselves, accidents were very likely to happen.

"Damn it, it hasn't rained since we planted the seedlings. The weather is dry and there are not many mushrooms growing. I don't know why so many people come to pick mushrooms. I can't even get a few." Ye Xunqing heard that Ye Laosi and the others had returned, and he thought the harvest must be bad.

Chen Jinhua said, "Didn't Qing'er pick a lot of fragrant mushrooms a while ago? I saw him drying them in the yard."

Ye Lao Si said, "You're right. He hasn't married yet, and everything he has now belongs to our family. I get angry when I think about this. Damn that little bastard. I've provided him with food and drink for so many years, and now he earns money, but he doesn't give me a penny. Instead, he sends it all to the Feng family."

"How stupid!" Chen Jinhua cursed. "If he gives all the money to the Feng family and Feng Lao Er treats him badly in the future, I think he won't even have anywhere to cry."

Ye Xunqing thought to himself: People who don’t know would think you are so nice to Ye Xunqing. If you were really nice to him, he wouldn’t have jumped into the river to commit suicide.

After thinking about it, Ye Xunqing locked up the remaining mushrooms. These were his money-making treasures. If they were snatched away and sold by Ye Laosi and others, he would lose a lot of money.

Ye Zongkuan was busy with Ye Zongchun's affairs and did not plan to slaughter pigs to sell at the market, so Ye Xunqing asked Feng Jingheng, who worked in the town, to buy two pounds of meat. This time he planned to make meat sauce at home and called Feng Jingheng over as well.

"Oh, this is meat!" Chen Jinhua was very surprised to see her future son-in-law bringing over a bunch of meat. "Since you are here, why are you bringing meat?" As she said that, she was about to take the meat.

Feng Jingheng moved his hand back and said, "Qing Ge'er asked me to buy this."

Chen Jinhua thought that what Ye Xunqing asked him to buy was for their family, so she said, "Just give it to me, and I'll cook it for them in the evening." It was mainly for her two sons.

"I'm coming." Ye Xunqing came out of the room, "Take the meat to the kitchen first, I'll go get the mushrooms."

"Oh." Feng Jingheng did as he asked.

Chen Jinhua rolled her eyes, then smiled again, "What are you having for dinner, Qing'er? Meat?"

"Who said this meat is for eating?" Ye Xunqing said, "It's for selling."

Chen Jinhua asked doubtfully, "Who are you selling it to?"

"Sell it to those who can afford meat." Ye Xunqing smiled.

Feng Jingheng kept watching the hanging meat to prevent it from being stolen.

Ye Xunqing came in carrying a basket of mushrooms, then put the mushrooms in a basin and soaked them in warm water. The mushrooms were not very dry, so they just needed to be soaked for a while.

"Xiaobai, you will pull out all the roots of the fragrant mushrooms later." Ye Xunqing arranged.

Ye Xunbai said: "Brother, the roots of the fragrant mushroom can also be eaten."

"It won't taste good." Ye Xunqing insisted on pulling out the roots of the mushrooms. He made mushroom meat sauce and sold it. What if it didn't taste good and people refused to accept it?

If it were fresh mushrooms, it would be fine, but the roots of dried mushrooms are indeed very old, and putting them in would affect the taste.

"Listen to your brother." Feng Jingheng said, "If there are not enough mushrooms, I will go to the mountains to find them."

Ye Xunqing said, "Don't go looking for it. It's been dry these past few days, and mushrooms love water. There aren't that many mushrooms on the mountain. Plus, there are too many people looking for mushrooms on the mountain these days, so they've probably already found all of them."

Feng Jingheng was a little anxious, "What about you making the sauce?"

"I'm not doing it anymore." Ye Xunqing didn't hide it from him. "It's enough to make a little money by selling it once or twice. If I keep using this to make money, people will get jealous. Besides, I invited Aunt Qiumei over, and I can't just sell this mushroom and meat sauce. I plan to hand over the recipe."

Feng Jingheng respected Ye Xunqing's choice and said, "Okay, I'll listen to you."

Chen Jinhua was talking to Ye Laosi in the main hall. "Qing'er said he wanted to make some mushroom and meat sauce. Have you heard about it?"

Ye Lao Si said: "I haven't heard of it."

Chen Jinhua asked in confusion, "Why would Qingge'er do this? Could it be that he really met a god in heaven?"

Ye Laosi thought of the boy who could read and said, "Who knows? Maybe that damned Yang Shu appeared in his dream."

Chen Jinhua shuddered when she heard this, "Is... is that so?"

As they were talking, Wang Qiumei came over with four or five other women and their husbands. Each of them was holding food in their hands, some of which were vegetables, and some of which were fruits.

"Jinhua, Jinhua..." Wang Qiumei called out as she entered the house, "We've come to your house to learn from you."

Chen Jinhua was confused. "Sister Qiumei, what are you doing here at my house?"

Ye Xunqing came out of the kitchen and said, "Auntie, are all the people here? If they are, we should start frying the sauce."

Wang Qiumei didn't exchange pleasantries with Chen Jinhua and led her people to the kitchen. "Qing'er, these are all aunts from our family. Just call them aunt."

The aunt at home meant that these people were Wang Qiumei's sisters-in-law. Wang Qiumei was not as selfless as Ye Xunqing. The people she called were all those she got along well with. This was a good way to make money. Even if she didn't make money, she could eat happily at home. Who would tell others about it?

"Okay." Ye Xunqing didn't care about that. "Wash your hands and come over to cut the mushrooms and meat."

Wang Qiumei called out, "Hurry up, hurry up, be quick, don't let Qingge'er work alone."

The people who came were all experts in the kitchen, and with their help, Ye Xunqing could feel a lot more relaxed.
