Chapter 178 New business opportunities, new opportunities
Zhan Zhan noticed that there was light in Su Jian's eyes, but it was just an ordinary stone. By the way, Su Jian said that it was not a stone: "If you like it, I will help you find some more."
"Okay." Su Jian agreed decisively. Seeing that Zhan Zhan really started to look for mussels by the river, she turned to the village and said, "Uncle Li Zheng, to be honest, I came here to rent land.
In order to cultivate crayfish, I have discovered this again, which is really an unexpected surprise. It would be better if I could also raise some."
"I don't dare to call you that, but you are just raising stones?" The villagers were wondering what crayfish were, and suddenly they heard that Su Jian was raising stones.
"This is not a stone, it is a river clam." Su Jian explained with a smile: "It is edible."
The villagers were looking at Su Jian in surprise. Can stones be eaten? He had never heard of it.
Su Jian smiled and was not prepared to explain directly. Didn't Xingzhi Village believe in traveling thousands of miles to learn knowledge? Then she would do it and let them see with their own eyes that in fact, learning and mastering things does not necessarily require traveling thousands of miles.
There are many things around you that you can learn from.
But she can't say that what they pursue is wrong. As Su Qin said before, she wants to respect their choices. And whether her behavior can affect them is just a test. As for whether the test is successful or not, it is not something she can do.
It's under control.
"Brother, do you have a dagger on you?"
Su Qin took out a dagger from his boots. In fact, he had never used a dagger, but Su Jian always asked him to bring it with him. For no other reason than having a weapon with him when he went out would increase his safety.
Assure.
Su Jian took the dagger from Su Qin's hand, and carefully used the dagger to cut open the mussel from the middle along the back. The mussel, which was originally closed and sewn together, opened its mouth, and the white flesh was instantly displayed in front of everyone.
The village was surprised. The stone was white when opened. The stone could be opened by just touching it with a knife. The general's wife was as powerful and brave as the general! For a time, he respected Su Jian more and more.
"Brother, can you help light the fire?"
Su Qin paused, he should be able to do things like light a fire.
Su Jian saw that Su Qin was busy, and she looked at Zhan Zhan. She saw that Zhan Zhan had found several more river clams, and she dealt with them one by one.
"Brother, is the fire ready?"
Su Qin coughed a few times and felt a little embarrassed. Could he say that he hadn't found good firewood yet?
Zhan Zhan was surprised at Su Jian's proficiency in handling river mussels. He heard Su Jian's inquiry and saw Su Qin's embarrassment. After he got up and found hay and firewood, he built a simple stove using stones by the river and cooked it in it.
fire.
If there is a pot, the clams cooked will naturally be delicious, but the conditions outside are simple. If you want to let the villagers taste mussel meat as soon as possible, they can only roast it over fire, but... it can't stand it.
Live things that burn...
Su Jian looked around and finally decided to roast the mussel meat on the dagger.
The dancing sparks reflected the mussel meat on the dagger more beautifully. There was a crackling sound and the mussel meat began to curl up. Su Jian felt that it was almost done, so she took out the seasoning packet from her small pocket.
The so-called seasoning bag is actually dry chili noodles mixed with some salt and peppercorns. Because Su Jian has a strong taste, she will always bring some to prevent it from being tasteless when eating out.
Unexpectedly, it came in handy today.
"I still remember a book I read before that said that if you drink a bowl of clam soup in spring, you will not get prickly heat or sores. But in fact, the clams in April and May are the most delicious, and the mussel meat is rich in nutrients.
, Eating some in moderation is good for the body. However, those with weak spleen and stomach should eat as little as possible." There are also mussel shells, which are said to have medicinal value, but what are the specific uses? Maybe you can take some back for Qi Mo to study.
.
Su Jian took the lead and handed the roasted mussel meat to Cun Zheng: "Uncle Li Zheng, eat the first one. I didn't put any seasoning for you." As an elderly person, it is better not to eat too spicy: "Try it first.
If you feel uncomfortable with its original taste, you can try the second one, I only added a little seasoning."
The villagers didn't dare to eat and only looked at Zhan Zhan.
Su Jian noticed the gaze of Cunli Zheng and handed the mussel meat on the dagger to Zhan Zhan: "General, try one too."
Zhan Zhan met Su Jian's gaze and felt Su Jian's easy-going attitude at the moment. He picked up a piece of mussel meat.
Su Jian looked at Zhan Zhan more. He took the mussel meat and didn't eat it quickly. He kept it in his hand. He was not afraid of burning it. Su Jian didn't think about it anymore and handed the mussel meat to the village official again.
When Zhan Zhan saw that Su Jian was no longer looking at him, he put the mussel meat into his mouth. If he didn't eat it, the villagers probably wouldn't eat it either.
Sure enough, Zhan Zhan was seen eating mussel meat in the village, and he ate too.
Zhan Zhan chewed mussel meat. It was different from the crayfish meat he had eaten before. The meat was softer and chewier, but the taste was still delicious.
The villagers were eating mussel meat. They thought it was stones, but it turned out to be meat! His eyes narrowed. He had not eaten meat for a long time. This meat tasted so fresh and fragrant! He must eat mussel meat.
Tell the villagers what you can eat and let them taste the meat.
"There is a small river here. It is very good to store water to raise crayfish. If the village is willing, we can sell or rent it. The price is negotiable."
The villagers nodded: "To be honest, considering the safety of the villagers in the village, it is not possible for others to sell or rent land. But you are the general's wife, so we are naturally relieved. How much land does the wife want?
We can rent it to you."
Su Jian nodded, as long as the village agreed. It seemed that bringing Zhan Zhan today was a mistake. At that time, Su Jian had completely forgotten that it was Zhan Zhan who brought her here.
"I like these river mussels very much. If you are willing, I would like to collect them. The big ones cost five cents, the ordinary ones three cents, and the small ones cost one cent each."
The villagers were looking at each other, and their cloudy eyes suddenly became bright: "Ma'am, are you kidding me?"
"I'm not kidding."
"Okay, okay." The villager said several times in a row.
"Be sure to pay attention to safety when picking up river mussels."
"Hey, eh, eh."
"Since I want to cultivate crayfish here, I naturally want to hire a few helpers. If it is feasible, the village is looking forward to making arrangements together."
"It's feasible, it's feasible." The villagers were nodding their heads.
"Okay, then I will arrange for someone to come over tomorrow to discuss specific matters with the village chief. It's time to go back today." Su Jian said, preparing to go home while the village chief nodded and saluted, but as she walked, she realized that she seemed to have forgotten
What.
It wasn't until Su Jian arrived at the entrance of the village and looked at the big horse in front of her and the carriage not far away that she remembered what she had forgotten.
It's Su Qin.
"Where's my eldest brother?"
When Su Jian was patrolling around, Zhan Zhan discovered what Su Jian was looking for: "Isn't he behind us?"
"..." There was no one behind her, Su Jian cursed in her heart. It seemed that both she and Zhan Zhan had forgotten Su Qin at the same time.
