Chapter 265: Taking Guests to Visit the Workshop
Everyone wanted to follow suit. Many of them had never eaten this sweet potato, but they didn't dare to.
Although Zhao Qinghai now lives in their Daliushu Village, he is still an official after all. He and his other two sons also seem to be of high status.
Liu Daping arrived a little late, but he had already heard the result and was running out of breath.
Seeing that the people on the ground had not yet dispersed, he immediately shouted a few words:
"Shen Yuan's family planted the land early, so it matured early. I know everyone has had a hard time recently, and many families are running out of food, but now the wild vegetables on the mountain are growing."
"Everyone should overcome the difficulties on their own. If all else fails, we can borrow some food from other families. The autumn harvest will be here soon. We also grow sweet potatoes. With such a high yield, we can sell them for a lot of money and buy a lot of food."
"So, don't do anything shameful just for the sake of food. No one should even think about taking these sweet potatoes. As you can see, Lord Zhao treasures them so much that he is reluctant to dig even one."
"If the people from the Agriculture Department find out that you dare to steal sweet potatoes, I, Liu Daping, can't protect you!"
Although Liu Daping trusted the people in the village, there was no guarantee that some people would not be able to control themselves and have other thoughts.
After all, one sweet potato can be eaten for several meals.
"Don't worry, we know what's going on."
"Yes, we also grow sweet potatoes ourselves. Even if we run out of food, we can go to the mountains more often."
"Uncle Lizheng, my family is out of food. Can I borrow some from you? I'll return it after the autumn harvest."
.......
Someone actually borrowed food.
Liu Daping readily agreed. He had said before when he was fishing that if anyone wanted to borrow food, he would lend it to them as long as they had it at home.
As the head of the village, he would help as much as he could as long as the person was not dishonest.
Shen Yuan and the others naturally didn't know that Li Zheng had warned everyone like this. He and Wan Wan were not afraid of others coming to steal, after all, the place where the Agriculture Bureau built the Agriculture Office was not far from the sandy land.
At that time, there were only a few villagers and yamen runners sent by the county who were building the house. When they were building the house, they could see the sweet potato field from afar.
He couldn't think of anyone else who might have stolen the sweet potatoes except He Erzhu.
As for He Erzhu, we are not afraid of him stealing, we are just afraid that he will not steal.
A group of people were walking on the ridge of a field. They saw a field of plants in the distance that seemed different from corn. Although they also had green stalks, they were not as tall as corn.
Some are low, as if they are lying on the ground.
Su Wanwan explained one by one, one piece was rapeseed and the other piece was peanuts.
But they didn't know what it was either.
Su Wanwan decided to go back and fry a plate of peanuts for them, saying that they were left over from the seeds that had not been planted.
It’s better not to use rapeseed oil for now as it’s too eye-catching. Wait until the rapeseed is harvested and the oil is extracted, then use it openly.
"We won't know what to do with this rapeseed until it's grown, but I think it will be very useful to you, so allow me to keep it a secret for a while."
Restaurants are not the places that use the most oil.
Then let my second uncle's family supply rapeseed oil and peanut oil to Bai's Restaurant. That will be a big customer.
"Also, this rapeseed will be very beautiful when it blooms. If you two are interested, you can come and have a look in a month."
Such a large field of yellow rapeseed flowers is beautiful just by thinking about it.
"That's great, I'll definitely come."
Zhao Qinghai also squinted his eyes and looked at the rapeseed. Mrs. Shen was still playing a mystery. She didn't tell him what the rapeseed was used for.
It’s not a grain, but the tender tips can be used to cook dishes and they are quite delicious.
Since it is a vegetable, why do we need to plant so much?
Su Wanwan picked a handful of rapeseed tips. They were tender and delicious.
Zhao Qinghai still felt it was a pity, but since it was not food, it was a vegetable, so he should just eat it. There were so many fields, so there would be plenty even if he saved some for seeds.
What's more, he also wanted to eat it. The tender sprouts were really fragrant.
Su Wanwan went back to cook and asked Shen Yuan to take Bai Shao to check on the workshop again. The workshop was almost finished and the two planned to start work after the autumn harvest.
Looking at such a large workshop, which was something he had never seen before, Bai Shao also became interested in bean curd sheets.
I heard that it was the skin on the surface of soy milk. He had eaten it and it was soft, but who would have thought of making any dish with it?
Before work started, Shen Yuan and Bai Shao had already negotiated a cooperation agreement, which was that the first batch of bean curd sheets produced by the workshop would be supplied to Bai's Restaurant, and they would also teach a few recipes.
Lin Wenyue was not interested in these, but the Daliushu Village was still quite beautiful, with picturesque mountains and clear waters.
She thought of the Wanggang Village that Sister Ye bought. Those villagers became Sister Ye’s long-term workers, but they were really difficult to manage.
Those villagers are not as kind as those in Daliushu Village. They are all cunning and deceitful. Fortunately, Sister Ye is free, so she can slowly manage them.
I heard that several people were driven out of the village these days.
She really admired Sister Ye's thundering methods, but she didn't understand why Sister Ye had to travel so far to buy a farm.
Even if you want to escape from the capital, why not just find a place to buy land in the suburbs of Beijing?
Lin Wenyue was walking along the river, her thoughts drifting away. At this moment, a girl in yellow came from a distance.
Zhao Yuanyuan had seen Lin Wenyue when she was watching the fun in the sweet potato field. She had a deep memory of this young man.
Unfortunately, he was entangled by He Xiliang and couldn't get away. He finally sent He Xiliang away and searched around before finally finding the young master.
She immediately smiled, walked over, and bowed, thinking she was being very polite.
"Mr. Lin, nice to meet you again."
Lin Wenyue no longer recognized this girl. He frowned and seemed to be thinking.
"Mr. Lin, you must not recognize me. I am a girl working in Mr. Shen's workshop. My name is Zhao Yuanyuan."
Zhao Yuanyuan immediately introduced herself.
Not far away, Xiao Yunyi saw this scene, his eyes widened, and then rolled around a few times.
Although his father didn't let him pay attention to Zhao Yuanyuan anymore, he had already formed a habit and always felt that this woman was not a good woman.
Although he didn't understand, it was unheard of for an unmarried girl in the village to talk to a man alone.
But he had seen this woman many times!
Isn’t she about to get married to Uncle Xiliang from the He family?
Why do you want to talk to another man alone?
Xiao Yunyi turned his head again and saw He Xiliang walking in another direction with two eggs in his hand.
He ran over immediately.
"Uncle Liang, Uncle Liang, come quickly and help me, my hat fell into the river."
He Xiliang was anxious to find Zhao Yuanyuan. Yuanyuan said that the food in the workshop was too bad in the past two days and she was very hungry, so he went home and stole two boiled eggs.
I looked around but couldn't find it.
However, when he heard that little Yunyi's hat had fallen into the river, he decided to follow Yunyi to the river to take a look.
