Qingyang stood aside, smelled the aroma of the food, and swallowed his saliva. Hearing Jiang Lizheng's words, he did not forget to speak for Yun Miaomiao.

"Of course. Our wife's cooking skills are very good. You are in luck. She may not be able to cook in the future. You must cherish this opportunity."

After saying that, Qingyang carried the fish into the small courtyard with a smile. Jiang Lizheng and the others felt even more itchy after hearing this.

It wasn't that they had never eaten seafood before, but this was the first time they smelled so fragrant.

They didn't know how it was made, so one or two of them wanted to see how it was done. As soon as they entered the small courtyard, they put down the fish in their hands and walked into the kitchen.

Yun Miaomiao actually doesn't cook any difficult dishes. The stoves in the small courtyard are all big stoves with very strong fire. The water in the pot will boil in a short while. It is most suitable for boiled fish and it will be cooked in no time.

There are two large wooden basins, so you don't need to expend much effort at all.

"Holly, go and ask someone to move the vegetables out. The food is ready. It's ready to be served."

Yun Miaomiao packed the last shovel and shouted to prepare for the meal.

Dongqing's stomach was already growling, especially because the food cooked by Yun Miaomiao was so delicious that he couldn't hold it any longer.

Just as he was about to get up and go out to call someone, he found that Jiang Lizheng and his party had already walked in.

"No need to call, no need to call, we will come."

When Yun Miaomiao saw Jiang Li coming in with a smile, he said, "You guys came just in time. The steamed yellow croaker in the basket is ready. It's almost ready. The bowls and chopsticks are all in the basket. I'm afraid those aunts outside are...

I'm also starving, please let everyone wash their hands and eat."

Yun Miaomiao's voice was not loud, but everyone heard clearly. Aunt Wang, Aunt Yang and their group outside were all greeting people to take bowls and eat.

After all the dishes were brought out, Yun Miaomiao started cooking. She had already cut up the squid and stir-fried peppers, and the green vegetables with garlic. Yun Miaomiao could only stir-fry such a large amount of vegetables. As for whether it tasted good to her,

I really can't guarantee it.

"This steamed fish tastes so fresh and sweet." Jiang Lizheng took a bite and his eyes were full of surprise.

When Yun Miaomiao came out, everyone was eating with their heads down, and there were fewer people talking. As soon as she sat down, Dongqing gave her a bowl filled with boiled fish and half a yellow croaker.

, and squid.

"So many?" Yun Miaomiao looked at the mountains of bowls, dumbfounded.

Dongqing took a few mouthfuls of rice into her mouth and said, "Madam, eat quickly. Those people are all hungry wolves. Fortunately, I have quick hands and helped you pick up a little bit. Otherwise, you might not even have a share of the pelvic floor."

"Can't..." Come on!

Just when Yun Miaomiao was about to say so many dishes, she was just a little late. She looked up and saw that the wooden basin was already empty, with no roots or leaves left.

She remembered that when Jiang Lizheng and the others were returning, they had already eaten steamed buns. These dishes were calculated according to the portions of a village. This was too exaggerated.

Holly devoured the rice in her hand, "Madam, the food you cooked is so delicious, I can even eat five bowls of rice. Let alone them, they are all like starving ghosts."

"Dongqing, what you said doesn't sound right. Why don't we just eat a few more mouthfuls than usual? Why don't we not be allowed to eat even this little bit of food?" Aunt Yang said in a sour tone.

She hasn't eaten enough yet, this food is really delicious.

Dongqing snorted, "When you two came over, didn't you all say that you had eaten? I didn't know who it was just now, and I didn't know how many times I poked my head into the kitchen. I was embarrassed to say that I had two more mouthfuls of rice.

."

"Hey, you kid~"

"Okay, Xiaoyun's cooking is delicious, just admit it. You have all seen this seafood at some point, and several people have taken it home and cooked it, but I haven't seen you say it is delicious. I go to pick up seafood every day.

, come back and cook it, but both of them dislike it because there are many fish bones and it smells very fishy, ​​so they are not willing to cook it."

Aunt Wang directly refuted Aunt Yang's words. She knew which family had eaten and which had not. They all coveted Yun Miaomiao's food as if they had never seen it.

Yun Miaomiao didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Thank you for your hard work tonight. Just think it tastes good. But Jiang Lizheng is right. We were able to come back so quickly this time because we were lucky. The next time we go to sea, we don't know how many days it will take."

Well, the day after tomorrow, starting from the day after tomorrow, I will take you to the beach in the north to catch the sea. I will teach you the methods. I will collect the seafood I pick up at that time based on the quality. It is up to you to choose whether you want to exchange money or food.

"

"Can we still catch the sea on the beach?" Aunt Yang said with disbelief on her face.

Yun Miaomiao answered seriously, "Yes, time is very important on the beach, but there is danger in rushing to the sea. Although there are no sea beasts on the beach, there are waves. If you don't come back in time when the tide rises, you will be swept away by the waves.

Then you can't be saved, so you must listen to people's instructions and come back as soon as they are told. Otherwise, I will not take you to the sea. Otherwise, if anything happens to you, don't blame me. Accept your defeat. Understand.

?"

"This money is given to you to earn. Of course, I can also ask outsiders to do it. Who can give me the ability to pass through the sea beasts and prevent them from biting my boat? If you are willing to do it, go find Qing Qing.

If you don't like it, I won't force you to remember your name. It all depends on your choice."

Yun Miaomiao's words made everyone present look at each other. They all knew that they had taken advantage of this job. If Yun Miaomiao found someone from outside to work here, they would only be jealous.

Aunt Yang was the first to jump out and disagree, "That won't work, this Qin Lanhe is our place, what's the point of calling outsiders here?"

Once someone started, others started to cheer, "Yes, this is our territory, how can we invite outsiders to come?"

"Yes, no, we can do it. We will listen to you and go back as soon as you say. We will never stay."

She originally wanted to give these people a warning, so that they should not think that she is a person who can be bullied at will and easy to talk to. If she is angered, she can also recycle the food on the island, and they will only eat seafood from now on.

If you want to eat food, living in peace is the last word.

"I know that everyone wants to earn food to live. Unless it is absolutely necessary, I will not use outsiders. Everyone knows that I am a businessman. The only way to make money is to make money with everyone. The emperor can send people to recover this place once. You

Don't think that just because you live here, you can occupy the land and become a king. If you still become a water bandit here as before, it is not impossible for the emperor to attack you again. You are all farmers, and you are not as good as those who are strong and healthy.

Water bandits, it will be very easy for the Emperor to deal with you. The whole world belongs to the Emperor. There is no such thing as your territory. We are the ones here to talk about this. If it reaches the ears of the Emperor, then the Emperor will send troops here. How can we

They all have to lose their heads."

Yun Miaomiao spoke calmly, directly ringing an alarm bell in the hearts of those who were clamoring for their territory just now.

The few people who were full of arrogance just now suddenly became like quails when they heard this. They lowered their heads and did not dare to look at Yun Miaomiao.

The atmosphere in the courtyard instantly cooled down. After all, Jiang Lizheng had been Li Zheng before. Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, he immediately came out to smooth things over.

"Okay, okay, Xiaoyun is taking us to earn food. It's a good thing. You all just talk about it and enjoy it. When the time comes, will you look like quails when you encounter trouble?"

"It's just that, everyone is a coward. When it comes to fighting water bandits, you are afraid?" Wang Tiezhu also agreed.

Yun Miaomiao shook his head, "I just want to remind you that this business will still depend on you in the future. I will bring you some cloth when I come back after the new year. As long as you work hard, the benefits will definitely be indispensable in the future."

Jiang Lizheng was convinced of this. Yun Miaomiao had promised to cook a meal for them before, but he didn't expect that he would eat it as soon as he got off the boat. He was even more confident that he would have an easier time following this girl Yun Miaomiao in the future.

.

The atmosphere relaxed a lot, and there were more people talking and joking. Everyone forgot about the unpleasant incident just now, and one or two started chatting.

After everyone had almost eaten, they started to process the remaining fish, and it was not until late at night that all the fish in the yard were killed.

I thought that everyone would be busy until late at night, but I didn't expect that they would finish the work in advance. Yun Miaomiao distributed food to everyone on the spot. They agreed on three kilograms of food for the whole night. Now they have finished the work before midnight. Yun Miaomiao still paid for it.

Three kilograms of grain were given to the child, and half a kilogram of grain was given to the child.

When receiving the food, both of them had smiles on their faces. When they saw Yun Miaomiao, they praised her several times before leaving.

The water tank in the yard has bottomed out. It used to be filled with sea salt, which she bought from the mall. She said it was dried by sea water. Dongqing and the others were working on weekdays and didn't pay much attention to her movements. Now,

After all the work was done and everyone stayed at home, it was hard for her to do anything.

At this moment, Yun Miaomiao caught a glimpse of Aunt Wang and her family who were about to leave, and her eyes lit up.

"Aunt Wang, wait a minute." Yun Miaomiao immediately stood up and called the person to stop, "Uncle Wang, Aunt Wang, wait a minute, I have something to tell you."

Although the matter of drying sea salt is not a big deal, the process is also very complicated. If sea salt can be refined, it can also be used as ordinary salt. But now she only needs the salt for pickling seafood, and the other things can be discussed later. People are still

You need to find someone reliable.

Aunt Wang was about to leave, but when she heard Yun Miaomiao calling her, she stopped and saw her walking over quickly, looking at her with confusion.

"Girl Yun, what's wrong?"

Wang Tiezhu didn't know what she was going to do when she stopped him, "But the grain calculation was wrong?"

Seeing the nervousness of the two of them, Yun Miaomiao shook her head in a funny way, "No, that's it. There's something I wouldn't worry about if I leave it to others, but I'll feel more at ease if I leave it to you two."

"What's the matter?" Aunt Wang looked at her nervously, "If it's very important, we are all rough people and we may not be able to do it."

"It's not a difficult thing. It's just that I collect a lot of seafood. Today's can be considered a quarter at most. If the seafood is not marinated with sea salt, it will go bad. Then I won't

A waste of effort?"

After a pause, Yun Miaomiao continued, "This sea salt is originally dried by sea water, and the process is a bit complicated. I think you are all honest people, so I thought of leaving the sea salt drying to you. What do you think?

"

"Sea salt drying?" Aunt Wang exclaimed, "There are other people drying sea salt in this sea salt village. The sea salt you used today doesn't look like sea salt. The salt drying made by those in the village is yellow and astringent. The pickled fish

It’s not delicious either. I took a bite of your sea salt and it’s not bitter. I thought you were using the salt you eat to pickle fish, but I didn’t expect it to be sea salt.”

"With your method, can you produce sea salt that is white and not bitter?" Wang Tiezhu asked, grabbing the point.

Yun Miaomiao nodded, "Although the taste and appearance are similar to what we eat, this is indeed sea salt and cannot be eaten. It can only be used to pickle fish. I trust you and leave this matter to you.

You and I can feel at ease, do you think it’s feasible?”

Wang Tiezhu and Aunt Wang looked at each other, still a little hesitant on their faces. After all, this was not a simple matter.

"this..."
