Small peasant girl

Over time

The taste of fine white powder is different from that of wheat flour.

And the price is much higher.

Ordinary people usually don't buy it to eat.

But what is going on with Liu's coming to him with fine white powder?
Su Zhishan was a little puzzled.

Liu didn't care if Su Zhishan didn't understand, seeing him looking at her suspiciously.

Liu said, "This isn't fine white powder, it's starch, cornstarch."

The third girl said that this thing can't be called fine white powder in the future, the name is too ugly.

Hearing what she said, Mrs. Liu didn't care about the name.

"Corn starch?" Hearing what Liu said, Su Zhishan still frowned slightly, "Is this made of corn?"

This thing, he knows.

It has always been made of flour, but Liu said it was made of corn.

Su Zhishan was even more surprised.

Listening to Su Zhishan's question, Mrs. Liu nodded, and continued, "What does the village chief think of this starch?"

Her mission today is to seek cooperation from the village head.

So Liu stopped talking and went straight to the topic.

"Very good," Su Zhishan nodded when he heard Liu's words, but he just nodded halfway, he thought of something, and looked up at Liu in surprise, "This...was made by your family?"

Hearing Liu's tone, Su Zhishan's heart twisted.

Thinking of this starch, cornstarch, he guessed and asked.

Seeing that the village chief was so surprised, Liu's face was calm.

He just nodded slightly, and said, "This starch is made by my family. Today, Sanya and I also came to find the village head for business cooperation."

"Looking for me to do business?"

Hearing that Mrs. Liu admitted that the starch was made by her family, Su Zhishan hadn't realized it before hearing Mrs. Liu said that she would do business with him.

Su Zhishan was even more puzzled, his pair of slightly cloudy old eyes kept staring at Liu's face.

Seeing Su Zhishan staring at her like this, Mrs. Liu felt quite uncomfortable.

But thinking about what Sanya explained to her at home, Liu Shi did not dare to slack off.

Nodding his head, he replied, "I plan to build a starch workshop, which will be as big as twenty or thirty acres of land."

"The workshop needs land. I saw a piece of wasteland in the south of the village, so I came to the village chief to see if it could be approved."

There is indeed a wasteland of more than [-] mu at the south end of the village.

There is a lot of gravel on the wasteland, and the soil is not fertile. Someone once planted food and vegetables on it, but they couldn't even recover the cost.

Over time, that piece of land was completely abandoned.

It is not good for growing crops, but it is a good place to build factories.

"After the workshop is built, the village head can let the people in the village go to the workshop to work. At that time, [-]% of the profits from the workshop will be distributed to the villagers every year."

These are Sanya's plans, Liu Shi just stated truthfully.

Mrs. Liu said only a few words, but Su Zhishan froze in place after listening to it, and didn't recall it for a long time.

"This……"

Building a workshop in the village is a good thing. Su Zhishan is not stupid, so he naturally understands this truth.

But he still has a lot of doubts in his heart.

"It's... It's not impossible to set up a workshop, but does your family have the money to build a workshop now?"

A workshop of [-] to [-] mu of land, with such a large area, is impossible to build without more than a hundred taels.

Su Zhishan asked.

Su Zhishan asked this, but Liu Shi didn't speak, but glanced at Sanya.

Seeing this from Liu Shi, Su Jinxia nodded and said to the village chief, "Grandpa village chief, it's June, and this weather is just right for starch production."
