Chapter 135 Dehydrated Vegetables
Er... this is embarrassing.

Jiang Wan covered her face with her hands, feeling helpless in her heart.

However, Jiang Wan soon thought of another way.She took out the essay she had just written and read it to Mrs. Liang.

Two days ago, Jiang Wan received another letter from her elder brother.Tell the family that they have arrived in the northwest and have been incorporated into the local garrison.

It's just that he separated from his second and fourth uncles.Only the third uncle is with him now.

After being incorporated into the current army, they are training every day.He also went to the front line once, but he didn't fight against the people from West Desert.

They were at the rear of the team at that time, and before they could enter the field, the enemy was beaten away by the brave Dongshang soldiers.

The letter roughly wrote about his recent situation, to reassure the family.But how exactly, no one knows.

Mrs. Liang knew about this, and Mrs. Zheng went to find Mrs. Liang on the day she received the letter.Ask her to help find someone to reply to!

Mrs. Zheng was illiterate, so she had to ask Mrs. Liang for help if she wanted to reply.After all, there are many literate people in the Jiang family.Therefore, as long as Jiang Chengyi writes back, Mrs. Zheng will come to Mrs. Liang.

Jiang Wan wrote the reply letter yesterday, and she took Liang's words.What the other two younger brothers wanted to say was written in the letter.

Finally, I briefly talked about what happened at home recently.

Originally, Jiang Wan planned to read it to her mother after dinner, but now her mother is in a bad mood.Just take it out and read it, change the subject, let mother forget about the unhappy things before.

Sure enough, Mrs. Liang heard that Jiang Wan had written a reply.He hurriedly asked Jiang Wan to read it to her, and quickly forgot what happened just now.

After listening to this, Mrs. Liang nodded and said, "Yes! I have written everything that needs to be written, very good!"

After hearing this, Jiang Wan folded the letter and put it away. After dinner, she went to the post station in the town to post the letter.

Just when Jiang Wan was about to leave, Mrs. Liang suddenly stopped Jiang Wan and said, "I don't know how your brother's food is in the northwest?
I heard that it is close to the Western Desert, there is a lot of wind and sand, and there is not much food to eat.Shall we send some vegetables to Rong Gan? "

"Send vegetables? Mother, it takes more than two months, almost three months, to travel by horse-drawn carriage from our place to the northwest. Let alone those vegetables in the northwest, they probably will all be rotten on the way."

"That's right! It's my mother who didn't think carefully." Liang patted his head and said.

Jiang Wan turned around to comfort Liang and said, "Mother, you don't have to worry about elder brother. The court will consider matters in the army, and the soldiers will not be hungry."

"Understood, you go back first! Don't forget to post the letter when you're done." Liang said, waving at Jiang Wan.

Jiang Wan bowed to Mrs. Liang, exited Mrs. Liang's room and went back to her room.

She suddenly thought of a good idea, the vegetables Mr. Liang mentioned just now.

It is not easy to grow vegetables in the northwest, and the people there who want to eat vegetables are transported from other cities.And it is not easy to preserve, so vegetables in the northwest are more expensive than meat.

Jiang Wan came from later generations, and later generations can eat all kinds of vegetables all year round, no matter how far the distance is.

Because later generations have refrigerators and refrigerators for storage.No matter how bad it is, it can be made into dehydrated vegetables and shipped over.

Jiang Wan doesn't make refrigerators and freezers.

But it should not be difficult to make dehydrated vegetables, as long as the water in the vegetables is dried.If you have a ready-made baking room at home, just get some vegetables and experiment.

As long as the water is taken off the inside of the vegetables, the vegetables can be kept for a long time.Never worry about breaking it on the road again.

Moreover, these vegetables are also convenient to eat.Just add some water to it, and you can eat it, as nutritious as fresh vegetables.

Thinking of this, Jiang Wan sent someone to pull some vegetables from the field and came back.After washing, cut into small pieces and send them to the baking room for baking.

At the beginning, the heat was not well controlled, either it was too dry, or the water was not completely removed.

Too dry and the vegetables are brittle and crumble when touched.If the moisture is not removed, it is easy to deteriorate.The preservation time will be shortened, and the long-term preservation effect of dehydrated vegetables cannot be achieved.

It took a few tries before I was able to dehydrate the vegetables without crunching them.

In the evening, Jiang Wan tried to cook a meal with these dishes.It is found that the taste is not much different from that of fresh vegetables, and the taste is just as delicious.

Seeing that the effect was good, Jiang Wan tried to make other vegetables into dehydrated vegetables.Such as: onion, garlic, ginger, radish, pumpkin, spinach, cabbage, wax gourd or something.

As long as there are some at home, after trying it, the taste is good, and Jiang Wan dehydrates it.

Jiang Wan stores a large part of these dehydrated vegetables in the space, and the other small part in the cellar at home.

She didn't know if the cellar could store these, if not, they would all be moved to the space.

After finishing all this work, another month has passed.Now it's summer, and the cuckoo has come back from Wubuya.

The soap processing factory at Chuyan's side has been officially put into operation, and the first batch of products has been listed in Qingyuan City.

Because the price is not high, ordinary people.As long as the family has spare money, they can basically afford it, so the market response is very good.

The first batch of goods were sold out within two or three days after they went on the market, and merchants in the city rushed to replenish them the next day.

Xiao Congran, who is in charge of the soap business, was overjoyed to see such a booming business.He praised Chu Yan from the inside out, and he became more confident in the soap business in the future.

What satisfies him most is that this soap business is unique.As long as the output can keep up, there is no need to worry about sales and profits.

With this soap business, Xiao Congran no longer has to worry about money.This is simply a chicken that can lay golden eggs. With this chicken that lays golden eggs, is it afraid that there will be no money to recruit troops?

Therefore, Xiao Congran is very concerned about the soap business.He moved all his salutes down the mountain and lived with the villagers.

And this remote mountain village also got rich because of the soap business.

Now every family in their village raises pigs, and the pigs are raised and sold to processing workshops for money.

In addition, many people in the village work in the processing workshops.There is a monthly money of one tael of silver every month.

Plus the grain and vegetables they harvested from their own fields.Adding these together, there is an income of about half a tael a month.

In this calculation, each of them can save one or two silver deposits every month.There are 12 taels a year, and frugal families may have more than this amount of silver.

At first he and the others didn't believe in such a good thing, but later when they got the money, they believed it was true.

After all, the money in his hand is real.

Now, the people in the village are very kind to the people on Wubuya.It's not like seeing the people above it like seeing a ghost.

No, I heard that Young Master Xiao on the mountain wants to live at the foot of the mountain.

They vacated the best house in the village overnight and cleaned it up, just to make Xiao Congran live more comfortably.He also sent someone to wash and cook for him.

Seeing that the soap was selling well, Xiao Congran added more manpower to expand production.

The business was good and the output could keep up, so Chu Yan opened another branch in Linyuan Mansion.In case everyone is crowded together, let's take care of Linyuan Mansion by the way.
