56. Chapter 56
She had to get up early tomorrow. After Jinhua and her son left, Ruixue fetched water, washed her face and feet, and then went to sleep on the kang. She said nothing all night.
After breakfast the next morning, Ruixue went to the field to check. Li Da and others were very efficient and had dug out two pieces of land. Ruixue asked Li Da to stop and go to her house to get the pepper seeds into the field.
, "Uncle Li, this bag of pepper seeds covers twenty acres, so I'll leave it to you. You will lead people to plant it in a while, and I will tell you how to plant it... In this way, do you understand?"
"I understand." Because of the extremely low yield of peppers, people here rarely grow such precious things as peppers. Although Ruixue asked Li Da to plant them in a different way than he usually does, he has rich farming experience.
So I quickly grasped the essence of it.
Seeing that Li Da had planted well, Ruixue nodded, "Give me these twenty acres of peppers to plant today. I have something to do today and I have to go to the city again. I will try to come back earlier. If I can't come back early today,
, then it’s better to leave it alone and I’ll tell you how to deal with it tomorrow.”
"OK."
Knowing that her daughter was going to the city again and worried that she would not come back after dark like yesterday, Qiao Zi was determined to go with her daughter. Seeing her firm face, Ruixue had no choice but to nod, "Okay."
In order to enter the city faster, Ruixue hitched up the carriage and kept urging the horses, causing the horses to gallop and bump along the way. When they arrived at the Juxian Tower, Qiao Zi felt a little dizzy and said, "Xue'er, you are driving so fast.
What to do?"
"Mom, we're here." Ruixue got out of the carriage and tied the horse, then turned back to help Qiao Zi, who was fainting.
"Miss Qiao, you're here, and hello, Mrs. Qiao." The Juxian Building was closed for three days, and even the door was closed. The waiter heard the sound of the carriage inside, opened the door and saw Ruixue coming, and quickly said enthusiastically
Welcomed out.
Ruixue took a look at Longfeng Restaurant. Although it was not a restaurant at this time, there were already some bored people running over to drink tea and chat. She nodded, pulled Qiao Zi and followed the waiter into the Juxian Building.
Qiao Zi already knew the general situation of Juxian Tower yesterday. Seeing the waiter's attitude towards her daughter, she vaguely felt that there was something about her daughter that she had not explained clearly to her.
"Miss Qiao, the shopkeeper is in the kitchen. He said you can go directly to the kitchen when you arrive."
"Okay." Ruixue nodded and looked back at Qiao Zi, "Mom, you can do it yourself. I'll go to the kitchen first."
"I have nothing to do anyway, so I'll stay with you."
"Okay." Ruixue came today, mainly to make seasonings. Yesterday she taught Niu Er how to cook the bottom of a pot. By the way, she also made some lists with some needed things on them for the shopkeeper to get. He moved very quickly.
She got everything she needed in the evening.
Because Niu Er was promoted to chef, the shopkeeper hired a few more workers. The whole day, the sound of knives chopping was heard in the kitchen, and occasionally there was a strange fragrance. Ruixue didn't memorize the ingredients when she was making the condiments.
As a person who lives in Juxian Tower, she has many recipes in her mind. As long as the shopkeeper is not stupid, she should know that she is more valuable than a portion of condiments, and she also believes that the shopkeeper is not a fool.
There is no difference between Longfeng Store and Juxianlou to her. The only difference is that she first came into contact with Juxianlou. The shopkeeper and waiter here have good service attitude, so she went directly to Juxianlou.
Then, by chance, we encountered trouble in Juxian Tower. It was the right time, the right place, and the right people.
Lunch at noon was of course hot pot. Ruixue used the newly prepared ingredients. Everyone thought it was more delicious than yesterday, but it wasn’t right. Yesterday, the ingredients were not all available and she just messed around with it. But now, she has not finished it.
Once the seasoning is done, it will definitely be even more delicious than it is now.
In order to avoid getting dark again when returning to the village, Ruixue left early today. When she woke up early the next morning, she went to the fields to check the seeds planted yesterday. Li Da did not cut corners and strictly followed the instructions.
According to her request, Ruixue planted the seeds. Yes, it was peppers yesterday and soybeans today. After teaching Li Da how to plant the seeds, Ruixue went to the city. Before going to the city, she asked Li to cook the pumpkins she brought back.
Come and eat, take out the inside and let her dry it.
Three days passed by and Juxian Tower reopened. With the promotion from the three previous diners and the notice outside the gate of Juxian Tower, everyone was looking forward to the new hot pot. So as soon as the door opened in the morning, the waiter discovered
There were quite a few people standing outside the door, some of whom didn't even eat breakfast but came over to wait for a taste of the hot pot.
Because the notice said that hot pot must be eaten together to be delicious, many people came in groups. Seeing the jealous eyes of the owner of the Longfeng restaurant opposite, the waiter and shopkeeper Yuan were very happy, and they hurriedly welcomed everyone in.
Started a day of business.
Ruixue had already taught Niu Er what to teach. How to ration and set the price was the business of shopkeeper Yuan. Ruixue only gave some advice. On the day Juxian Tower reopened, she did not go into the city. Niu Er had already completely
There is no problem, she has made plenty of condiments, and it will last for seven or eight days without any problem. When the condiments are used up, she will discuss the value of hot pot with Shopkeeper Yuan again.
When shopkeeper Yuan was laughing so hard that he couldn't even see his eyes, Ruixue had already planted ten acres of cabbage seeds, twenty acres of pepper seeds, and twenty acres of soybean seeds that he bought from the city, leaving fifty acres of wheat.
While clearing up wasteland, digging the ground, and planting seeds, Ruixue recruited a few more people to pour manure.
Yes, throw shit.
People here still don’t know that feces has extremely high nutritional value. No one has ever poured feces into the vegetable field. When they heard that Ruixue was going to throw feces into the vegetable field, everyone was very surprised. After Ruixue explained that there is actually some food in feces.
It has high nutritional value and is beneficial to the growth of vegetables. Although everyone doesn't quite understand or believe it, Ruixue is the boss, and everyone can do whatever she wants.
Sprinkling feces is not just random, it needs to be proportioned. A toilet only needs one-fifth of the feces in it, and the rest is water. This is considered a natural fertilizer. If the proportion is too high, her vegetables will be burned to death.
Yes, considering that this was the first time for the land to eat manure, Ruixue lowered the ratio a bit, to one-sixth of manure and five-sixths of clean water. When the vegetable seedlings grew up, two more splashes would be enough.
Fortunately, the proportion is relatively low, and throwing feces on the ground does not create a big impression on the people working nearby. Otherwise, the stench would be overwhelming, and everyone would probably complain.
In addition to pouring manure on the newly planted land, even the corn fields had to be poured. After a few days of drying her lime, the bugs in the field were almost dead. Everyone was surprised and at the same time also convinced of Ruixue, although her method
It's always strange, but she killed the bugs that no one could do anything about. Maybe this feces can really make crops grow better.
