A lucky koi fish was found while escaping from famine, and the whole family became prosperous

Chapter 233 Beef Jerky

"Maoxuewang?"

Old Mrs. Jiang was curious, and so were the Jiang family members. Lord Shen and Xiao Yuanshan also looked at the pot of red stuff on the table with the same curiosity.

Jiang Yunjin did not keep anyone in suspense and quickly explained how to make it.

When everyone heard that this thing was boiled in water, they found it strange. Finally, as soon as the little girl finished speaking, they couldn't help but eat it with relish.

It was a pot of bright red stuff, and it tasted fresh, spicy, and not at all boiled. Even the dish was soaked in the soup.

After a short while, the whole pot of Maoxuewang was finished, but everyone still felt a little unsatisfied.

Jiang Yunjin did not eat the dish of Maoxuewang. It was not because she did not like it, but because she was too young to eat something so spicy.

After the meal, everyone praised the new dishes made by the little girl and even suggested selling them in the shop. However, as soon as they had the idea, the little girl rejected it.

"I'm afraid not. The ingredients are a little hard to find, but it's still okay to eat at home."

Most of the meat in Maoxuewang comes from cows, and these cows are not the tender cows that are commonly eaten in later generations, but cows that have died of old age.

The meat of these cows was difficult to chew, so she made it into beef jerky, which came in slightly spicy and medium spicy flavors.

Thinking of this, she turned and ran out, facing everyone's puzzled expressions, and ran straight into the kitchen.

After a while, he came out with two small plates and walked to the main hall.

"Try it quickly!"

As he spoke, he placed the two small plates in his hands on the table.

Everyone only knew that the little girl seemed to have prepared something new to eat, and as soon as the plate was put down, they couldn't help but taste it.

As soon as the beef jerky enters your mouth, the spicy taste wraps around the tip of your tongue. After chewing it a few times, the aroma of the jerky instantly fills your mouth, and the more you eat, the more you like it.

Jiang Yunjin ate several of them in a row, and only withdrew his little meat hand in disappointment when he saw that the dried meat on the plate was almost gone.

Not only was she unsatisfied, but everyone else was the same.

"Girl, what kind of meat jerky is this? How can it be so delicious!"

Boss Jiang ate the last piece of dried meat in his hand and couldn't help but ask.

Jiang Yunjin did not hide anything and simply described the dried meat, even saying that if it was well made, it could be preserved for a long time.

When he heard that it would be preserved for a long time, Xiao Yuanshan's eyes lit up.

The Jiang family, who were keen on making money, naturally did not notice Xiao Yuanshan's actions.

The Jiang family is only concerned about making money.

They didn't have any idea that it could be preserved for a long time, but they heard the little girl say that it would be fine if they could sell it occasionally in the future.

Afterwards, Jiang Yunjin was surrounded by his family members, all of whom asked him how to sell it.

After all, beef is not something that is often seen. Occasionally, when it is available, it will be fought over. However, it is very difficult to cook and few people can make it taste good.

"My girl, this is a good thing, but... beef is not easy to get! If it is made with pork, will it taste good too?"

Speaking of pork, Boss Jiang thought of his own barbecue stall and wondered if pork could be cooked this way.

It was a good idea, but Jiang Yunjin still shook his head at Boss Jiang after hearing it.

"They each have their own flavor. Pork can be made into pork jerky, which is also a snack."

But making pork jerky was a little troublesome, and she had to build a clay stove and make it into a simple oven. She was going to build the oven, but not now.

When Boss Jiang and his family heard what the little girl said, they gave up the idea of ​​using pork instead and discussed a solution.

We plan to sell beef jerky from time to time in the future at affordable prices as a way to give back to diners.

Once Jiang Yunjin made the proposal, it was agreed by his family and the matter was settled.

After lunch, Boss Jiang and his brothers went to work in the fields again. Lord Shen and Xiao Yuanshan did not follow them. Instead, they sneakily brought the little girl to the vegetable garden in the backyard.

"Xiao Yunjin, how do you make the beef jerky you just mentioned?"

When Xiao Yuanshan heard that beef jerky could be stored for a long time, an idea came to his mind. Before he could open his mouth to ask about it in detail, he saw the fair and tender little face in front of him suddenly become stern.

"Uncle, it's easy to do, but the only problem now is the shortage of beef!"

Here, some people raise poultry such as chickens, ducks and pigs on a large scale, but cattle... Although they are not raised on a large scale, almost every household raises cattle.

Jiang Yunjin understood what his uncle the emperor meant. He wanted to mass-produce dried meat so that the soldiers could use it as dry food.

If something bad really happens, at least the dried meat can fill my stomach.

But there is a problem right now, that is, there is no beef, unless...someone can raise cattle on a large scale and achieve beef freedom as soon as possible.

She had her own selfish motives when she came up with this idea.

If beef freedom is achieved one day, she can make hot pot base! She even wants to raise beef on a large scale.

But the choice is not hers.

After hearing this, Xiao Yuanshan frowned, as if he wanted to agree immediately, but he didn't know what he thought of, so he pursed his lips, hesitant.

a long time…

"Okay, I understand. I'll give you an answer in two days!"

After Xiao Yuanshan said this, he turned around and hurriedly left with Lord Shen.

Jiang Yunjin watched the two men leave until they could no longer see their figures, then turned around and went to weed in the vegetable garden.

I've been watering the plants more frequently these past two days, and as a result the weeds have grown too fast.

After clearing the weeds, she returned to the front yard. At that moment, Old Mrs. Jiang and several daughters-in-law were cooking sour plum soup.

"Grandma, let me help you light the fire!"

After Jiang Yunjin finished speaking, he trotted over and took the fire poker from the old lady's hand.

There were more than a hundred craftsmen who came to work, and although the Jiang family did not have to take care of their daily food, the old lady always felt bad about it. After all, building this waterwheel was time-consuming and labor-intensive, and they did not have to pay for their wages.

The old lady thought about it and finally decided to make a few pots of sour plum soup for the craftsmen, and add some ice to it so that the soup could cool down quickly.

In order to ensure that everyone can have a bowl of sour plum juice, not only the cook was busy making the fire and cooking the sour plum juice, but also several daughters-in-law of the Jiang family were busy cooking.

Even this was not enough for Old Lady Jiang, so she ordered the servant to go to Old Lady Qian's house next door to borrow the stove and start cooking together.

Only Old Lady Qian was at home next door. I heard that her son and daughter-in-law had gone out to make a living, leaving the old lady and the old man alone at home to take care of the children.

The last time I came to the Jiang family for dinner, Mr. Qian was not at home. I heard that he went to a wedding. When I came back, Mrs. Qian and others had also finished their meal and went home.

Ever since Mr. Qian learned that his family's means of livelihood was provided by the Jiang family, he has tried every possible way to repay the Jiang family's kindness, but was blocked by Mrs. Jiang.
