Dressed as the heroine of the farming novel and the best relative

Xiang Xi happily held up his hands and thanked her, "Then I'll thank you madam first for my brother and the others."

"You're welcome. If there is a chance in the future, let the children interact with that boy Moriquan more and discuss their studies. If Moriquan can take the exam on his own, his father and I will be satisfied."

Xiang Xi felt a little sad when he heard this. They are all parents who hope that their children will become successful.

She took Mrs. Lin and talked for a long time about studying and going to school.

The two chatted happily.

Goldman Sachs was drinking tea next to him, but he didn't feel uncomfortable at all.

Before Xiang Xi left, he gave the new menu to the shopkeeper and Mrs. Lin. It was not all the main dishes, but also some snacks, sugar water, etc.

Mrs. Lin was a little surprised when she saw the sugar water, "I didn't expect there are so many ways to eat it."

"It's just a pity that saccharin is expensive and there is not so much white sugar to make it."

When Xiang Xi heard this, she immediately became energetic and asked curiously, "Madam, you must have been to many places in the past, and you must be well-informed."

"I wonder if you have ever seen a crop that looks like radish, but it tastes sweet?" Xiang Xi asked about beets, which are perfect for making sugar. Although most of them are grown in the north, the climate in Yunshan County, It may not be impossible to grow, but at best the yield is not that high, but it is also a good cash crop.

"Raishits, are they sweet to eat? Isn't it because radishes in the north are sweeter than those in the south?" Mrs. Lin wondered.

Xiang Xi was confused and responded, "Huh?"

"Is that right?"

"My natal family is from Yuzhou in the north. They send me some hometown dishes every year, including pickled radish. Xiaoxi takes some back to eat."

"Dried radishes are also available, but fresh radishes are available here, so naturally they are not sent here."

Xiang Xi nodded and expressed her gratitude. She hesitated for a moment, but agreed, "Thank you madam. I have been reading miscellaneous books recently and I always see some fresh ingredients, so I am interested in them. I heard that there is Plant a crop called beets, which look similar to radishes but are used to extract sugar.”

After hearing this explanation, Mrs. Lin suddenly understood, and she said that Xiang Xi would not ask random questions about irrelevant things, so it was normal.

"By the way, madam, have you seen this thing?" Xiang Xi took out the dried chili pepper and showed it to Madam Lin.

Mrs. Lin looked at it for a few times and found it unexpectedly familiar. She stared at it and thought about it for a while, then said hesitantly, "I seem to have seen this thing before."

"But I'm not sure if it's the same as this."

Xiang Xi's eyes lit up instantly and she quickly asked, "Where have you seen Madam?"

"I should have seen it at some house. I can't remember the specific house. Why don't you leave this thing to me, Xiaoxi, and I will arrange for someone to inquire about it."

Xiang Xi smiled from ear to ear, as if she had seen a lot of pepper seeds running towards her. She smiled and said to Mrs. Lin, "Madam, this thing is called pepper, and it is a seasoning for cooking. If there are many, Just find it."

"The seeds inside are seeds, and both the seeds and the outer skin are very important."

"If we can find more next year, we can open a restaurant dedicated to selling this food, and the business will definitely be booming."

"Is this true?" Mrs. Lin firmly believed in Xiang Xi's words. She didn't actually doubt it at the moment, she was just curious.

Xiang Xi smiled as brightly as a flower, "Of course it is, I don't dare to deceive Madam."

"The most important thing is that if it is grown here, it can be transported to a more prosperous city for sale. At least in the past few years, we in Yunshan County can take advantage of this opportunity to make a fortune. These peppers can grow on slopes. , and there will be no delay in growing food." Yunshan County mainly grows rice, but there is also wheat, but very little, so Xiang Xi said this.

Mrs. Lin instantly understood the implications of Xiang Xi's words. When she returned home that day, during lunch, she asked her servants to invite the county magistrate to come back and tell her about the matter.

The county magistrate took two steps behind his back with his hands behind his back, and then said cautiously, "Madam, I leave the matter of finding these pepper seeds to you."

"Don't worry, it will be done and kept confidential."

"Well, actually it doesn't matter if we don't keep it a secret. After all, even if we tell people that this thing is not for viewing, but for eating, no one will believe it. Instead, they will make fun of us for not knowing how to appreciate it."

The county magistrate thinks it is a waste when he thinks of good ingredients for ornamental purposes, but what he hates even more is the merchants who deliberately fry the peppers into ornamental items in order to sell them at a high price.

"Businessmen pursue profits. We are lucky to meet someone who does not value profits. I hope the Gao family will never let me down." The county magistrate murmured.

Mrs. Lin knew that her husband had great ambitions. She smiled slightly when she heard this and said, "Don't worry, husband, you don't doubt the people you employ and the others you don't use. Except for the one who was separated, the rest of the Gao family will not have any problems in at least the next ten years." "

"If they change in the end, husband, the most you can do is part ways with them and live in peace. After all, friends are rare. Now that you can meet them, it is best to cherish them."

"What the lady said is very true."

Here.

Before Xiang Xi and Goldman went home, they also went to a bookstore. Xiang Xi picked out some essays, local chronicles, etc. The more outrageous they were, the more she bought them.

Not only that, she asked the bookstore manager, "Shopkeeper, do you have any laws for sale?"

Xiang Xi feels that in order to ensure the safety of his own family, it is necessary to be familiar with Dalu.

"What the madam said is Da Chu Law?" The shopkeeper was a little surprised, as if he didn't expect a woman to ask. He still took the initiative to bend down and find a thick Da Chu law from a rarely touched book shelf. Put it in front of Xiang Xi and said, "This is the law of Dachu. A book costs five taels of silver, but it cannot be damaged when you buy it home. You must also go to the Yamen to register it."

Xiang Xi heard the price and asked curiously, "How many people bought this book?"

"...Not much." The shopkeeper didn't have the nerve to lie. In fact, this was all common sense.

"It's no wonder it's so expensive." Xiang Xi thought that in future generations, only law students would be familiar with relevant laws and regulations. Ordinary students would not pay much attention to them. In ancient times when there were very few scholars, the law was not taken seriously by ordinary people. It's perfectly normal to care.

She didn't say much nonsense and bought it directly. Goldman Sachs had just picked out the paper, ink, pen and inkstone to buy for Gao Yun.

This cost a total of seven or eight taels of silver.

Fortunately, the family now has income every day, and neither Xiang Xi nor Goldman Sachs cares about money.

On the way home, Xiang Xi read the law and read it to Goldman Sachs.

Goldman Sachs knew that the purpose of familiarizing himself with the law was to avoid making mistakes accidentally and to be able to use them to protect himself at critical moments, so he listened very carefully.

However, there are too many laws, so Xiang Xi plans to read them with Goldman Sachs while practicing calligraphy every day. Over time, he can finish them all.

Arrive at the academy in town.

Gao Yun was called out.

Xiang Xi handed the things to him, "There are books given by Mr. Lin inside. Third brother, please take them back and read them. You can share them with your classmates."
