aquatic?

Shen Zhiyao suddenly thought of the first time she went back to Lihua Village to collect crayfish and snails, Patriarch Shen introduced Shuisheng's name.

Then he asked Shuisheng to come to the county with Huzi to give her crayfish and snails.

Isn't the clan leader planning this from the beginning?

Shen Zhiyao guessed and asked.

Chief Shen nodded. Shui Sheng was the only orphan in the clan. Now that he was young, his clan members could not take care of him all the time, so it would be better to find a reliable job for Shui Sheng.

Shen Zhiyao thought about Shen Shuisheng's performance during this period and came to give her crayfish and snails. When he was at her house, he could see that there was something in his eyes and he worked quickly.

However, it was not appropriate for a half-year-old child of his to be a servant and pick up and drop off Shen Baiqiu.

But there is a shortage of people in her village, so Shui Sheng can follow her.

Shen Zhiyao expressed his thoughts.

Then he said: "Clan leader, I still have to ask Shui Sheng if he is willing."

So, they called Shen Shuisheng over directly.

After hearing this, Shen Shuisheng was naturally willing to work with Shen Zhiyao.

In this way, Shen Shuisheng stayed, and Aunt Chen and the others said goodbye and returned to Lihua Village the next day.

After Aunt Chen and the others left, Shen Zhiyao took Shen Shuisheng to the dental shop.

Wu Miao learned that she wanted to buy servants, so she brought over all the existing servants in Yaxing.

A dozen skinny people, old and young, stood in a row, letting her choose.

"Can you farm?"

After looking around at the dozen or so people, she asked.

Three people stood up, a middle-aged couple and a woman in her twenties.

After Shen Zhiyao learned about their origins, why they were sold, and whether their net worth was innocent, she sold these three people.

Then, she picked a man of seventeen or eighteen years old who could drive a carriage, a woman who could cook, and a maid of seventeen or eighteen years old.

Six people spent a total of fifty-five taels.

After selecting the good people, Shen Zhiyao and Yaxing went to the Yamen to go through the formalities, and soon they got the deeds of sale of these six people.

The first step to buying good people is to know their names.

The middle-aged couple, the man is called Zheng Er, the woman is Zheng Ersao, and the other woman who knows how to farm is named Jiang Tao.

The man who can drive a carriage is Wan Fang. His mother-in-law is called Sun, and everyone calls her Grandma Sun.

The maid asked Shen Zhiyao to name her directly.

Shen Zhiyao thought for a while and named her Butterfly Orchid.

After buying a good person, Shen Zhiyao went to the car dealer again and bought a carriage from the man in the car dealer.

Afterwards, Wan Fang was responsible for driving the carriage. Shen Zhiyao, Die Lan and Granny Sun got into the carriage. Shen Shuisheng sat in the front room of the carriage and gave Wan Fang directions.

Zheng Er, his wife and Jiang Tao drove the donkey cart that Shen Zhiyao came with and followed behind the carriage.

When they arrived at Zhuangzi, Shen Zhiyao arranged a place for them to live, and then led everyone to start clearing the empty land on Zhuangzi. She wanted to plant vegetables.

If they don't know how, let them follow the example of Zheng Er, his wife and Jiang Tao, and dig out the ground first.

After the explanation, Shen Zhiyao took Shen Shuisheng to her pond and started to lay fish fry.

night.

After Shen Baiqiu came back from private school and Shen Yueya came back with Chen Cuihua, Shen Zhiyao introduced Shen Baiqiu and Shen Yueya and Chen Cuihua to the people who bought them today.

Afterwards, she arranged for Wan Fang to transport the three of them to the city every day, and to collect crayfish and snails from various places during the rest of the time.

Shen Zhiyao added spiritual spring water to the vegetables she planted on Zhuangzi, and she also added spiritual spring water to the pond.

Just when she was busy growing vegetables and raising fish, and it was already mid-September, she received her first month's dividend from Yuelailou.

There are fourteen thousand and twenty taels.

The bulk is in the cake, and the cake alone is worth more than 10,000 taels.

Shen Zhiyao happily put the silver into the space and continued busy with her business.

While she was busy in her village, the wives of some wealthy gentry in Tongfang County got together recently, and the indispensable topic was the effect of drinking Qiuli ointment.

The ladies all said that after drinking Qiuli ointment, they felt as if a few wrinkles were burned.

So, everyone asked Mrs. Pei to help buy Qiuli paste.

When Mrs. Pei found Shen Zhiyao, Shen Zhiyao said that she could take up to twenty bottles in her hand.

Mrs. Pei bought them all.

After giving the money, Mrs. Pei suggested that she open a workshop for making Qiuli paste.

Shen Zhiyao said that she would not consider it for the time being, as she could not spare any time to do this at the moment.

In October, the tomatoes she had planted in the Qinglian Lane yard were ripe. She took a few baskets to the yard and picked all the ripe tomatoes without anyone else.

Also took some out of the space.

Anyway, only she knows how much tomatoes are harvested in the yard.

Of course, she didn't go too far and only took out three baskets from the space.

Shen Zhiyao did not get these tomatoes from Shen and sold them all.

She first gave some to several families she often dealt with. After she had a good meal at home, she thought of something and sent half a basket to Magistrate Gan.

She also told Magistrate Gan where tomatoes came from, how she grew them, and how tomatoes can be used in cooking.

After Magistrate Gan ate a few, he immediately donated the remaining tomatoes to the capital as quickly as possible.

After Emperor Zhaoxing received the tomatoes and saw the memorial from Gan Lixin, he ordered the imperial kitchen to make a plate of scrambled eggs with tomatoes.

After tasting the delicious tomato scrambled eggs, Emperor Zhaoxing told the court the good news of the new crop and took out the tomatoes for all the ministers to see.

All the ministers began to flatter him, boasting that the country was prospering and that Emperor Zhaoxing was favored by God.

After a rainbow fart, it's time to reward.

Both Gan Lixin, who donated tomatoes, and Shen Zhiyao, who discovered that tomatoes were edible and planted them, will be rewarded.

Just like last time, Emperor Zhaoxing still did not promote Gan Lixin, but only gave him some seemingly generous but not practical rewards.

As for Shen Zhiyao, Emperor Zhaoxing originally wanted to give her some money.

At this time, someone with a good memory suggested that she was the one who made the windmill before.

Emperor Zhaoxing's idea of ​​only giving some money stopped there.

With a stroke of his pen, he wrote an imperial plaque for Shen Zhiyao.

Then he rewarded a few of the tomatoes that were taken out to the Minister of Humerus, and gave the rest to the Secretary of Agriculture, asking them to arrange for people to plant the tomatoes.

When Emperor Zhaoxing sent people to deliver plaques and rewards, Shen Zhiyao could already receive relatively few crayfish from Tongfang County.

At this time, she launched a new dish - Malatang directly at Shen's Shiguang.

The weather is getting cold, it’s time to do something warm.

Before selling Malatang, Shen Zhiyao took Shen Baiqiu and Shen Yueya back to Lihua Village to have Chen Zhu's wedding banquet.

After the banquet, Shen Zhiyao reached a cooperation with Shen Lizheng and asked Lihua Village to supply her with yuba.

Shen Lizheng also informed her that the yuba from Lihua Village had been sold to the county.

Nowadays, dealers come to Lihua Village every day to pick up yuba.

Then, he took Shen Zhiyao to see several fields in the village where crayfish were raised.
