Born into a farm family, I became rich by pressuring my parents.

Chapter 2 Bring your own cheats

Huangtian Village is located under Guangxin County and is a large village with a history of a hundred years.The village has a large population, including aborigines who have lived here for generations and victims who were separated by the government during famine years.

The distance from the county seat is not close, but a branch of the Qishui River flows through the end of the village.

Although life in the village cannot be compared with that of several villages around the county, it can still be said to be easy.

The small river at the end of the village had no name at first. Because it was exceptionally clear, the villagers of Huangtian Village called it Qingshui, Qingshui. Later, the name Qingshui River came into being.

There are people living on both sides of the Qingshui River. On the opposite bank of Huangtian Village is Qinjiazhuang. The two villages often communicate with each other by boat.

Jiang Mingshun took his clothes and walked towards the river, stopping next to a few thatched houses.

The house is dozens of meters away from the river bank and is on a gentle slope. If there are no surrounding trees blocking it, you can see the center of the river at a glance down from here.

Jiang Mingshun looked around and did not continue walking towards the river. Instead, he took Jiang Jinyu into a larger thatched house nearby.

Huangtian Village is located in a hilly area. There are no deep mountains, and naturally there are no dangerous animals such as wild wolves and wild boars.

In recent years, the population in the village has increased, and there are fewer and fewer good places. When building houses, villagers can only choose their own places, and they rarely get together in one place in the east or in the west.

This thatched house is a typical example. Because no one has been near it for a long time, the house is surrounded by camphor trees and bamboos, and the weeds on the ground are no bigger than an adult's calf.

After removing the wooden door panel, unlike the desolate scene outside, you can still see some smoke and fire in the house.

I saw several bamboo plaques neatly placed on the Tukang, and each bamboo plaque was covered with fine cotton cloth.

On the other side, there is a small stove in the corner, and there are even several piles of dry firewood stacked next to it.

To talk about the origin of the whole thing, we have to start with Jiang Jinyu.

In the five years he has lived in this life, Jiang Jinyu has not always carried the memories of his previous life.

At least for the first four months after she was born, she was really a normal baby who didn't know anything.

However, according to her parents, she has been unusual since she was a child.

At least they had never heard of any children nearby who were born with pieces of paper in their hands.

The paper couldn't be thrown away, nor could it be burned. It frightened the couple who had only had a child six or seven years after they got married.

Really having no choice, Jiang Mingshun gritted his teeth and finally decided to put the paper away properly.

Sure enough, nothing strange happened after that, and the couple gradually put the incident behind them.

It wasn't until three years later that Jiang Yongsheng suddenly suffered from a cough. After taking the medicine prescribed by the village doctor for a month or two, he didn't feel better. So he took a boat to the county drugstore. When he came back, he not only brought several pairs of medicines, but also bought A small jar of maltose is said to clear away heat and relieve dryness.

Half a month later, Jiang Yongsheng was indeed feeling better. Compared to the miserable medicinal soup, the sweet maltose was naturally more popular.

Since he was already well, he asked Yang to give maltose to the children to try.

So, the other children in the family, regardless of gender, all got a few spoons of sugar, but Jiang Jinyu was the only one drooling in the air.

It's not that she was just greedy for candy. In fact, as a modern person who is well aware of all kinds of delicious sweets, she has not tasted sweetness in three years. When she saw maltose, drooling was a natural physiological reaction. .

It happened early the next morning. After waking up, Jiang Jinyu, who was still recalling the smell of maltose in his dream, turned around and saw a piece of paper next to his pillow. The top line read "Method of making maltose" in large characters, and the bottom was densely packed. Full of detailed steps.

She must have been too greedy. Jiang Jinyu was so stunned that she sleepwalked in the middle of the night and didn't know how to make maltose?

When Bai came back to wake Jiang Jinyu up after washing, she was suddenly frightened when she saw the paper. She didn't dare to move without permission, so she hurriedly told Jiang Jinyu not to move and ran out of the house. Soon after, she pulled Jiang Mingshun, who had just returned from carrying water. Come in.Jiang Mingshun didn't look very good. He closed the door carefully, pointed at the piece of paper, and asked in a very low voice: "Mother Fish, did you dig this out yourself?"

Jiang Jinyu was affected by the tense atmosphere in the room and did not dare to move. He only replied in a low voice: "No, I saw it when I woke up."

After being speechless for a moment, Jiang Mingshun's expression became even worse, and Bai also showed a worried look.

"Did dad write the words on this paper?" Seeing no one speaking, Jiang Jinyu picked up the paper and asked tentatively.

Jiang Mingshun was surprised: "Where are the words?"

When I saw it a few years ago, it was clearly a blank piece of paper.

"This is how to make maltose!" Jiang Jinyu raised his hand and walked forward.

This time Jiang Mingshun could see clearly, but what he saw was a few lines of paintings on it like earthworms, with a strange look on his face: "Is this a word?"

Although Bai was illiterate and couldn't see clearly what was written on the paper, she was a very careful mother, so she couldn't help but wonder, "Yu Niang, when did you know how to write?"

Jiang Jinyu was speechless. How could she explain that she learned to read in her previous life?

Fortunately, before Jiang Jinyu racked his brains to think of a reason, Jiang Mingshun had already figured it out on his own.

The paper was brought by him after his daughter was born. When the daughter wanted to eat sweets, he also brought the candy recipes. Even his illiterate, only three-year-old daughter could learn things that he didn't know how to do without a teacher. Know the "word"!
Therefore, Jiang Mingshun believed very characteristically of the times that his daughter was the reincarnation of a boy from heaven and she brought her own blessings!

After hearing her husband's explanation, Mrs. Bai agreed with deep understanding.

She touched Jiang Jinyu's little fleshy face lovingly: "Since you know the words above, tell mother how to do it, and mother will make sweets for you."

Jiang Jinyu: "..."

As long as she is not asked to explain the problem of literacy, it is not impossible.

As a result, the family of three happily accepted the strange setting of "the reincarnation of a boy in heaven".

The raw materials of maltose are very common, they are nothing more than wheat and glutinous rice, and the production method is not difficult. However, in this world, the ability to disseminate information is extremely poor, and people have few means to make a living. Anyone who has some skills is passed down from father to son. , passed down from generation to generation, so maltose is not common.

Other things were fine, even the place for making sweets was ready. The thatched house left by Jiang Mingshun's parents was not exactly deserted and remote.

It's just that you always need an iron pot to boil sugar. Jiang Ming bought a small iron pot with the money he saved from doing odd jobs in the county during slack seasons.

The pot is really small, and I only made one pound of maltose the first time.

Although the quantity was small, Jiang Jinyu’s “sugar freedom” was finally realized.

After another busy farming day, Jiang Mingshun followed his usual routine and prepared to go to the city to find work.

He was about to go to the river to take a boat. When he was passing down the slope, his brain suddenly got hot and he accidentally brought a can of maltose that he had just made.

After entering the city, he was not in a hurry to go to the dock to find work. Jiang Mingshun took the jar and entered the largest drug store in the county. When he came out, his face looked like a dream.

He didn't dare to hang around outside, so he went back to the room and poured all the money on the kang.

Bai, who was still worried about why the man came back so early, was so shocked by the large amount of money that she almost screamed.

Jiang Jinyu, who had already had the idea of ​​making money, was surprised for a moment and asked in a happy mood: "Dad, did you sell the maltose?"
