I farmed and raised cubs in ancient times

Chapter 72
But when thinking of the big box that came with Jiang Zhiniang's family, and Jiang Yu's status as a businessman who has been doing business outside the country all year round, one knows that Jiang Zhi has such a family's protection, no matter how poor she is, she will never be poor, and everyone is at ease. have eaten.

In fact, Jiang Yu is not a merchant, he is just a private household who lives outside.

Jiang Ling'an refused to allow Jiang Yu to become a merchant, so Jiang Yukong's ability to do business was limited everywhere.It's not as beautiful as it seems on the surface.

Jiang Zhi took Ye Heng and sat at the children's table. She had been cooking since before dawn, and now she had no other thoughts about food except to drink some tea.Seeing Ye Heng eating seriously, and the other children at the table scrambling to eat, Jiang Zhi regretted sitting at the children's table.

The children here don’t eat a few mouthfuls and leave the table. Every household in the village can’t eat meat a few times a year. Now there is so much meat on the table, they are all struggling to die.

Jiang Zhi watched them gorging on food, and didn't want to rob them.After Ye Heng was full, Jiang Zhi handed him over to Ye Xiaomei to take care of him, and cleaned up in the kitchen by herself, and added food for the big guys by the way.

After the meal, a few free women helped Jiang Zhi clean up. Today, the food on the table was almost wiped out. Jiang Zhi even added a stir-fried vegetable, which was enough. It was the first time she invited someone to dinner, and she underestimated it. Fortunately, a large pot of rice and steamed buns was steamed for the appetite of this group of people, and the staple food was enough.

If it is placed in later generations, the owner will lose face if there is not enough food on the table.

But here, they don't seem to care at all.

It may also be that there are plenty of meat dishes today, just like the pickled meat dish with preserved vegetables, the meat was sold out as soon as it was served.

A total of two catties of pork belly was made, and five bowls were made, but there were actually not many slices in each bowl.

This is Jiang Zhi's first time cooking a dish that is not available in this world. Apart from being delicious, it didn't cause any other sensations, which is very good.

In the future, I can try to make Dongpo elbow, fried crispy pork, pepper chicken, etc. She knows how to do all these, but she has never done it.

"Sister-in-law Qiu, take an inventory of your bowls, chopsticks and benches to see if there are any missing?" Jiang Zhi cleared out the dishes and chopsticks from the second room and put them into the frame. figure it out.

It's just that there was an accident today, one of Zhou's bowls was broken and had to be taken to the town to repair.

Bowls are also precious objects. If someone breaks a bowl, the first consideration is not to throw it away, but to pick it up and put it away. Find a tinker to see if it can be repaired and continue to be used. Generally, a tinker can curb the bowl.

Jiang Zhi put five cents in the bowl basket sent by Zhou's family to pay for the broken bowl, but she didn't tell Zhou's sister-in-law that if she knew, she would definitely not accept it.

Qiu Shi counted and said: "That's right, these are the ones, not one of them is missing." Then Daniel picked them all back, and Er Mao carried the table.

After collecting all the remnants of the kitchen, Qiu went to the Zhou family's sister-in-law's house to have a chat, leaving all the space for the Jiang family.

Jiang Yu and Jiang Ling'an carried the brown sugar box into the door together, and Jiang Ling'an took Ye Heng out to play at the entrance of the village.

"Little sister, I bought 160 catties of brown sugar from various places along the way, all at a lower price than Xin'an County, 32 Wen per catty, [-] guan in total."

"It does cut costs, but brother, brown sugar is sugar after all. If you want to cut costs to the greatest extent, it is better to use sugar cane. Sugar cane can be squeezed and boiled to make brown sugar." Jiang Zhi said.

Jiang Yu nodded in agreement: "Indeed, the cost of sugarcane seedlings for your two acres of land is only four pennies. I asked sugarcane merchants in Qiongzhou and Baiyue sugar merchants, and one mu of land can produce 430 catties of sugarcane, and [-] catties of sugarcane To produce a catty of brown sugar, roughly calculate, the sugarcane of this mu of land can produce at least [-] catties of brown sugar."

"The cost is low, so the selling price of white sugar doesn't have to be set too high. You have to keep these accounts in mind. After the first batch of sugarcane comes out and is made into sugar and sold, we will settle the cost. My little girl, I'm penniless now, and my family can afford it." The operation depends entirely on the help of the eldest brother and sister-in-law."

"Hahaha, although our family is not rich, we can still support you, so don't worry about it." Jiang Yu looked at An's beside him, and then at Jiang Zhi.

"That can't be done, brothers have to settle accounts clearly. Big brother, you are the eldest son of the Jiang family, and I am already the wife of the Ye family. The Ye family is not only my child, but also Erlang and the younger sister. This property is between me and the big brother." Yes, we must not get involved with the family behind us."

She had already thought about it, the cooperation with Jiang Yu was a unilateral cooperation between her and Jiang Yu, and the interests of the two families must not be too tight, otherwise a slight conflict in the future would lead to the collapse of the cooperation.

Jiang Zhi didn't want this kind of thing that the family would do anything for the sake of profit to happen to her.Maybe her generation and the next generation won't, so what about the next generation?

"A Yu, I think what my little sister said is right, don't be confused about the things in the ledger." An said from the side.

"Well, let's make an account book for each of us. When the sugar cane is mature and everything is on the right track, we will reconcile the account book and re-do the sugar account. All the costs of these months will not be paid until the first batch of sugar cane white sugar is produced. Deduct from it. Two hundred catties of brown sugar is probably enough for the little girl to use until the sugar cane is mature."

"Okay, brother is more thoughtful." Jiang Zhi said with a smile.

Jiang Yu said again: "I heard that you sent Erlang to a village school, but you didn't send him to our father's private school, it wasted money. If our father finds out, he will have to peel you off."

"I have my own considerations about this matter. After all, the eldest brother Erlang is from the Ye family. If I were sent to my father's private school, I would be embarrassed to accept all the expenses. Erlang is sensitive and has a strong self-esteem. How could he accept it? What's more, the town is too far to go back and forth, and Erlang has never been enlightened, so Dad must not be used to teaching it."

It's not that she has not considered sending her to a private school in the town. Village school is relatively convenient for Erlang's enlightenment. After Erlang has laid the foundation, he can be sent to study in the town or county. In fact, it depends on Erlang's own wishes.

Jiang Yu asked again: "Hey, what about Brother Heng?"

"Brother Heng is still young, I want to stay for another year or two, and it won't be too late to hand it over to Dad." Jiang Zhi didn't want Ye Heng to read those Confucian sage books now.From three to five years old, happy to learn Braille and arithmetic.

Jiang Zhi was born in science, and she can't teach Ye Heng anything in the Confucian classics, but she can definitely beat everyone in this era in mathematics.She went to university at the age of 14, completed three years of undergraduate credits, and graduated ahead of schedule.

She studied biology for her undergraduate degree and chemistry for both her master's and Ph.D.

It's a pity that she died and traveled to ancient times. Those advanced knowledge are no longer useful, but some practical chemistry is still applicable.
