Nongmen Fu girl group’s daily favorites

At this time, Bai Kou came in with a pot of steamed sweet potatoes.

"This is a steamed sweet potato. You only need to tear off the skin of the sweet potato to eat. Everyone has a try."

Xiao Yichen and others followed Shen Jia's example and tore off the sweet potato skins and ate them.

“It tastes good, soft, glutinous and sweet.”

"Yeah, it's quite delicious."

"Sweet potatoes taste better when roasted. You can also add rice to make porridge, make sweet potato vermicelli, or make dried sweet potatoes. Dried sweet potatoes are fragrant, glutinous, sweet, chewy, and especially delicious." Shen Jia said with a smile.

"Can sweet potatoes also be made into vermicelli?" Liao Chuyao asked.

"Yes, just like rice can be made into rice noodles, sweet potatoes can be made into sweet potato vermicelli. You can make them when there are more sweet potatoes in the future."

"I see!"

Shen An, the snack foodie, said vaguely: "Sister, the sweet potatoes are delicious, sweet, I like them, are there any more?"

Shen Jia smiled and said: "No more. There is only one for each person."

"Oh! There's only a little bit of delicious food every time. I haven't eaten enough yet!" Shen An said helplessly, her shoulders slumped.

"Wait a minute, there will be your favorite ribs and corn soup, and your favorite pumpkin." Shen Jia said with a smile.

"Really?" Shen Yun also came over and asked.

"real."

"Yeah!" The three little ones clapped their hands together.

Everyone couldn't help but smile when they looked at them.

The lunch meal of the Shen family is particularly rich.

Chicken, duck, and fish were indispensable. Shen Jia also fried a bunch of peanuts and brought out all the rice wine, twist wine, and jujube wine at home to entertain them.

Everyone tried corn and pumpkin first, and found that these two foods were also very delicious. They then tried peanuts last. Not surprisingly, several grown men fell in love with the taste instantly.

"Tender and delicious white-cut chicken, spicy and fragrant fish head with chopped pepper, fresh and refreshing lemon duck, sweet and sour sweet and sour pork loin, mellow-flavored pan-fried tofu, sweet and delicious corn rib soup, crispy peanuts , soft and mellow rice wine. I have lived for more than fifty years. This is the first time I have eaten such fragrant dishes and drank such pure wine, especially the peanuts, which are fragrant and crisp..." Su Hao's face turned red after drinking. , a little drunk.

Shen Zhuoyun quickly asked his servants to help him down to rest.

Shen Jia smiled and said: "When the peanut oil is squeezed out next year, the dishes will be even more delicious."

"Can peanuts be used to extract oil?"

"Of course, I will build an oil pressing mill next year. The oil pressing from peanuts is amazing. It is truly fragrant."

"Miss Shen, don't forget to give us some peanut seeds!"

"Don't worry! I won't miss you."

After the meal, everyone else went to rest. Shen Jia and Xiao Yichen took Wei Yuming, Chu Xingyu, and Cheng Guangyuan to the study.

"This is the plan I wrote. Can you three take a look?" Shen Jia wrote out everything she could think of during this period, and then discussed it with Xiao Yichen, Shen Zhuoyun, and Shen Hao, and finally finalized the plan. Plan.

The three of them picked up the plan and read it carefully.

Two quarters of an hour later, Chu Xingyu looked troubled: "Girl, it says that every boy and girl over seven years old must go to school. It's a bit overwhelming."

"I understand this. Some families in my village can't do it. Let's build a free school in the county first and vigorously promote the benefits of reading to children. Every child can attend small classes for free for one year and can also eat for free at noon. , good students with family difficulties can also apply to attend middle school for free. As for girls, I will send people to promote it..."

In my previous life, in the 1980s, there were so many people who did not go to school, let alone the Great Zhou Dynasty. She just wanted to help them. The opportunity was given, and it was up to them whether they would seize it or not.

"Can you really help us sell the dried fruits mentioned above?" Chu Xingyu asked.

"Yes. There are many varieties of unique fruits in Lingnan, and the transportation is not developed. If the fresh fruits are transported to the north, they will no longer be fresh, and it will consume a lot of manpower and material resources. It will be different if we dry them into dried fruits, such as dried longan, Dried fruits such as dried lychees, dried mangoes, and persimmons last a long time and taste good..."

"Where do you plan to build this winery? How will you arrange the management staff inside?" Wei Yuming asked.

“I plan to build a large winery at the intersection of the county seat and Beili Village. We will brew high-purity white wine first, and then we can make fruit wine during the fruit ripening season, such as plum wine, yellow-pipe wine, grape wine, and jujube wine.

To make fruit wine, you can also purchase fruits from the two neighboring counties, which can also increase people's income and encourage people to wholesale the wine and sell it. I will give 10% of the profits to the workers in the winery, so I have to be more strict when recruiting workers..."

“What is wholesale?”

"Wholesale means selling the whole batch at a low price. For example, our cost is one tael of silver for a bottle of wine, and we can wholesale it to them for one tael or five taels. They can sell it for no more than three taels of silver. If they exceed the price we set, , then we have the right not to sell to them. Of course, if the place where they sell is too far away, we can relax it as appropriate. We can also wholesale dried fruits to them."

Xiao Yichen quietly looked at the girl chatting next to him, his eyes were as tender as water, and he could not hide the doting on his face.

"What does it mean to encourage business? Scholars, farmers, industry and commerce, businessmen have a low status, and few people are willing to do business." Cheng Guangyuan frowned.

"Wen can stabilize the country, military power can stabilize the country, and the economy can enrich the country. We encourage business to stimulate the economy. If a country wants to be strong, population, military, economy, and agriculture are all indispensable. It is not enough to just rely on knowledgeable people to manage the country. of.

If the military is not strong, foreign enemies will invade; if agriculture is not strong, people will be hungry and the population will decrease; if there are no merchants, where will the basic necessities of life come from? It is difficult for a clever woman to make a meal without rice, so how can a country be strengthened? Therefore, I think as long as businessmen pay taxes, they are people who have contributed to this country, except for profiteers of course. "

Xiao Yichen chewed Shen Jia's words carefully: Wen can stabilize the country, force can stabilize the country, and economy can enrich the country. Population, military, economy, and agriculture are all indispensable.

The more he thought about it, the more excited he became, and a dazzling light burst out from his eyes, as if the door to a new world had opened.

Since ancient times, among the "scholars, farmers, industry and merchants", merchants have been ranked last and have the lowest status. Although some businessmen are rich and powerful, they can only gain social status by making friends with officials or spending money to buy officials. The money is usually eaten by local officials. Lost.

How to let businessmen drive the economy, keep everyone fed and clothed, and educate every child is a question worth pondering.

There is also the fact that the civil and military officials in the court have never dealt with them. The military attachés look down on the civilian officials and think that the civilian officials can only talk nonsense.

For thousands of years, in order to govern the world, emphasis has been placed on literature over military affairs, and in troubled times, military affairs have been valued over literature. The battle between civil and military forces is a major theme in the political arena, and it seems wrong now.

Several people discussed in the study room for nearly two hours before coming out.

Xiao Yichen immediately returned to his room and wrote the sweet potato harvest and what Shen Jia said to Emperor Jingwen.
