In the court hall, the booklet sent by King Yang caused another disturbance. Liu Shangshu took the documents that the emperor had read with trembling hands, and carefully read the data again and again. The yield of the top-grade good fields is 380 jin; the yield of the middle-grade fields is 330 jin; !
Liu Shangshu burst into tears: "Your Majesty, the old minister is incompetent! Huangzhuang is all high-quality fertile land, and the yield per mu is only about 190 catties!! This Yu family is really talented, Your Majesty!"
Zhu Junfan looked at Du Yushi Yang Chengrui, and asked with a half-smile: "Yang Yushi, what do you want to say?"
In the face of facts and data, Yang Yushi naturally had no reason to stop the emperor from rewarding the Yu family. He thought for a moment, and said: "If this statement is true, I will be convinced."
What he said, it seemed that the King of Yang County deliberately falsely reported the data in order to create momentum for the Yu family. All the civil and military officials in the court shook their heads secretly. This Yang Yushi's character is indeed not good, and he is still looking for a way for himself at this time.
Don't even think about it, the Yu family is the king of Yangjun? Can you make that cold-hearted black-faced county king willing to risk the crime of deceiving the king to cover up? Besides, even if the Yu family got the reward, they were only seventh-rank officials, and they were still small peasant officials belonging to the household department. What's bothering you, Yang Yushi? As for biting like a leech and not letting go
The Secretary of the Ministry of Industry came out to talk to each other again: "Perhaps the difference in yield is caused by the different varieties of seeds. I think that if you want to achieve a fair and just result, you should use the same seeds and the same fields..."
Officials who knew the situation all gave a tacit look - the granddaughter of the Minister of the Ministry of Industry was discussing marriage with the grandson of Yang Yushi's family, no wonder she would speak for him.
At this time, the military commander reported that the northwest border was not stable, and the remnants of the Yuan Dynasty were divided into two tribes, the Eastern Liao and the Western Liao, and they were ready to move at the border. There were occasional wars, and they asked to send more people... About the Yu family , was exposed again.
On the outskirts of Tang Ancient Town, the Yu family's Zhuangzi was busy at the moment. After the soybeans were brought back, the tenant farmers were busy plowing and fertilizing the fields, preparing to plant wheat.
Standing tall and tall, Zhu Junyang stood on the land of Yu's Zhuangzi, and said to Yu Xiaocao who distributed wheat seeds to the tenant farmers: "Now that we are planting winter wheat, we will not be able to grow corn in spring, right? Let me remind you, the emperor is very concerned about corn. It is very important, and it is planned to popularize the planting of high-yield crops such as corn in the north... "
Yu Xiaocao smiled at him and said: "I know that if we want to popularize corn planting, seeds are definitely not enough, we should do it step by step! We have grown corn, so naturally we have to take on the important task of cultivating corn seeds! But, This is not in conflict with planting winter wheat!"
Zhu Junyang's eyes were surprised, and he was full of doubts: "Why don't you conflict? I have asked your tenant farmers. We have planted winter wheat, and it will be harvested in early summer next year. Where can we get the fields to grow corn in spring?"
Yu Xiaocao raised his eyebrows at him, and smiled triumphantly: "Who did you hear that corn must be planted in spring? After the winter wheat is harvested, another crop of corn will be planted, and the harvest will be harvested in autumn. After the corn is harvested, plant winter wheat again. It just happens to catch up. If winter wheat is not planted now, the fields will be idle for at least four or five months, isn’t it a waste of resources?”
Zhu Junyang thought about it for a while and found it quite reasonable. Yu Xiaocao said that after the popularization of corn, it can be regarded as coarse grains at most. One season of corn and one season of winter wheat, coarse grains and fine grains are available, and the lives of ordinary people will be better. He also handed over his 800 mu of land to her, and asked her to help pick the seeds. He compiled a memorial overnight and sent it to the capital. Soon, Huangzhuang on the outskirts of Beijing also started planting winter wheat.
At this time, wheat planting technology has been relatively perfect. Yu Xiaocao was only responsible for making the small butian stone release aura on the wheat seeds, and the other matters were done by the tenant farmers. At this time, the father and daughter were busy dealing with the villagers who came here to buy beans.
The news that Zhuangzi of the Yu family had a bumper harvest of soybeans, with an output of four hundred catties, had spread quietly in Tanggu. Word of mouth, and later it became known that the seeds of the Yujia soybeans are new high-yield varieties brought back from the West by King Yangjun.
At this time, the pressing process of soybean oil has been gradually perfected. Tofu, bean sprouts and some bean products have also quietly climbed onto the tables of ordinary people. Bean cakes squeezed from soybean oil and bean noodles made from beans are all food for poor people to survive. The doubling of soybean production can improve the lives of many people, and the temptation is not small.
The soybeans harvested from the fields of King Yangjun were to be transported to the capital. Yu Hai's father and daughter sold all the output from Yu's village at a low price, except for saving enough seeds for next year. What is parity sales? It was sold to those poor people at the price of good seeds on the market without an extra penny, and the Yu family won a good reputation in several nearby villages.
After finishing the work in Zhuangzi, Yu Xiaocao started to pack the money and headed for Fucheng. There is less than a month left before the hospital examination, and several pens of pigs in the family have reached 200 catties and are ready for slaughter. In other words, preparations for the lo-mei shop in Fucheng should start!
This time, Yu Hai and Liu Hu were also going to Fucheng with her. Preparing to open a shop is naturally not that simple. The renovation of the shop, the purchase of materials, and the purchase of kitchen utensils... all require manpower.
The reason why my aunt and uncle were asked to follow was because the shop was really short of manpower for the preliminary work, and the second was because the lo-mei shop had to cooperate with the Liu family. The Yu family contributes money for the prescription, the Liu family contributes, and the profit is divided into 20-80, the Liu family's two and Yu's family's eighth!
Yu Caifeng had seen the hot sale of stewed pig heads at the wharf, so she had no doubts about Yu's stewed vegetables skills. They just put in a little effort, and they can get 20% of the profit, which is a huge advantage. After several refusals, under Yu Hai's persuasion, he finally accepted the kindness of his younger brother's family.
Coming to Tanggu from the northeast penniless, my younger brother not only cured her man's illness, but also helped them from time to time. Among other things, in the past two years, they have helped my brother sell watermelons, and after they built a house and sent little Fang Ping to school, they still have more than a hundred taels left. This was a huge sum of money for them who had no more than five taels of savings in their hands before. Now, when my younger brother's family opened a shop in Fucheng, they were the first thing that came to my mind, and they gave me a generous share. How could this not make her grateful
Before leaving, Yu Caifeng called her family together, and said to the children: "We can live a life without worrying about food and clothing now, all because of your uncle. From now on, you should honor you as much as you honor me and your father." Uncle and aunt."
Liu Junping, a half-grown young man, has kept the Yu family's kindness towards them in his eyes and in his heart for the past two years. He nodded solemnly and said, "Uncle is our family's great benefactor, and we will always remember it in our hearts!"
Yu Caifeng thought for a while, and then said: "If the shop develops in Fucheng in the future, your father and I will definitely bring you to Fucheng. If our stewed vegetables sell well, we will face many people who come to Fucheng. Those who inquire about Fangzi, you must remember that the kitchen is an important place. Don’t let other people in!! Not to mention, for the sake of profit, leak the recipes we live on. If you let me know your idea of making prescriptions, don’t It’s my fault for not recognizing you!!”
Little Fang Ping was frightened by his mother's tone and expression, and nodded repeatedly. Liu Yan'er hurriedly said: "Mother, don't worry, my brother and I will never be white-eyed wolf! Besides, there are members of our family in the shop, who would do such a thing?"
After beating their own children, Yu Caifeng and his wife followed their younger brother and niece to Fucheng. In the courtyard of Fucheng, only an old man nearby was invited to watch the gate, and the courtyard was cleaned every day. There were not many people living in it for half a year, and the four of them were busy washing and brushing all day before tidying up.
There are five shops in a row in front, separated from the middle, half of which are three shops for stewed vegetables, and the other half are two shops for pickles. Yu Xiaocao has a lot of recipes for making pickles, and Yu Caifeng has a good skill in making miso. It is indeed a waste of such a large store to do braised vegetables.
Yu Hai and Liu Hu were busy with the renovation of the store in the front, while Yu Caifeng and Yu Xiaocao, aunt and nephew, supervised the completion of the kitchen renovation in the back. The kitchen is quite big, and the two stoves in it must be more than enough for a family to use, but if it is braised vegetables, it is a bit stretched. So, first of all, double the size of the stove.
Then, according to Xiaocao's intention, an oven was repaired in the corner of the kitchen. The oven is built with blue bricks, and the surrounding walls are similar to the fire walls used by powerful people for heating. There is an open fire underneath for heating, and a secret prepared duck is hung in the middle. The heat is reflected on the duck through the wall, and the duck is roasted. The duck roasted in this way has crispy skin, tender meat, bright color and fragrant smell.
The shopkeeper of Zhenxiu Restaurant, who works in Fucheng, knew that the Yu family was going to open a braised meat shop in Fucheng, so he also took time to visit. After seeing the oven in the back kitchen, the big shopkeeper said with a smile: "Miss Yu, you are fighting Zhenxiulou! With your endless new dishes, our Zhenxiulou is no match!"
Yu Xiaocao smiled and said: "How can I! I am a part of your fruit wood roast duck. I can do things like fighting with myself? The roast duck I cook has a slightly different taste from the fruit wood roast duck, and we Only selling ten roast ducks per day will not affect the business of Zhenxiu Restaurant!"
The shopkeeper stroked his long beard under his chin and said, "What about the price? How will Ms. Yu plan to set the price?"
"Don't worry, the price is only one tael lower than Zhenxiu Restaurant. We will not set the price arbitrarily and disrupt the market!" Why is it a tael lower than Zhenxiu Restaurant? A small stewed vegetable shop is much taller. You set a price with others, do you still want to sell it
The price is so low, and there is no malicious competition to lower the price deliberately, coupled with the gimmick of limited sales... From the vision of the big shopkeeper, one can predict the popularity of the stewed vegetable shop after it opens.
