Jiang Ling turned around and went to the village head's house. Although the village head didn't eat a few mouthfuls, his son and grandson ate it. When Jiang Ling came, the village head's wife had already washed Jiang Ling's bowl.

"Village Chief, how does it taste?" Jiang Ling asked, looking at the clean bowl.

"Oh, you made Jiang's?" Lu Chengcai, the eldest son of the village chief, came over and asked.

"Yes, brother Chengcai, what do you think of the taste?" Jiang Ling asked.

"It tastes so good. I've never eaten such a delicious thing! Jiang, how do you do this?" Lu Chengcai asked.

"I'm sorry, Brother Chengcai, I can't tell you this. This is our exclusive secret recipe!" Jiang Ling's words made Lu Chengcai look disappointed.

"Village chief, I'm here today to ask you something!" Jiang Ling said, looking at the village chief.

"If you have anything to do with Jiang Ling, just say it!" The village chief suddenly stopped smoking his pipe and looked at Jiang Ling.

"Village Chief, can you help me make a few wooden basins like this? There are also a few square wooden plates like this!" Jiang Ling said and took out the blueprints he had drawn before.

The village chief took the blueprint and squinted his eyes to look carefully, and soon the village chief's expression relaxed, he nodded and looked at Jiang Ling and said: "This is simple, and it can be done in one or two hours at most, how many do you need? ?”

"Well, let's make five wooden basins, and ten square plates now! A total of fifteen, how much money?" Jiang Ling said.

"Oh, what kind of money do you need? The wood can be cut from the back of the mountain. It just takes a little time. I just don't have anything to do recently! Forget it!" The village chief immediately refused when Jiang Ling asked for money.

"That can't be done, the village chief, you have to pay the labor, you have to give the money, you just say the amount, and I think I will make this wooden basin and square plate a few times! If the village chief is so polite, what do you want me to do later?" Open your mouth?" Jiang Ling said.

"Then...then it will be one copper coin!" The village chief hesitated for a moment and said.

Jiang Ling took out twenty copper coins from his pocket and put them in the village chief's hand. By the time the village chief realized it, Jiang Ling had already disappeared without a trace!

After returning home, Jiang Ling began to think about what vegetables to bring to Pingxi County for trial operation tomorrow.

The reason why I chose Pingxi County is because the positioning of Mala Tang is different this time. The population of Pingxi County is much larger than that of Changning Town, and there is a pier in Pingxi County.

There are many people working on the pier every day, and there are also many pedestrians coming and going. Many people will bring some food to ensure that they will not be hungry on the road, but those with better conditions will choose to buy some from small vendors. Take what you eat with you.

Thinking of this, Jiang Ling secretly opened the system mall and bought a bag of starch and a piece of lean meat from the mall.

She came to the kitchen and cut the meat into thin slices, then poured in starch and mixed well.

Jiang Ling asked Jiang Yaojie to go door-to-door to collect some vegetables. Jiang Ling spread out a few more omelettes and kneaded some buckwheat noodles at home without restriction.

After everything was ready, Jiang Ling went to Uncle Lu's house again, and asked Uncle Lu to pick her up early tomorrow morning, and told Uncle Lu not to pull other people in the ox cart, and to go to Pingxi County tomorrow.

Then he took out ten copper coins from his pocket and handed them to Uncle Lu.

After returning home, Jiang Ling found that Jiang Yaojie had taken back a lot of vegetables, most of which were vegetables grown in his own yard, as well as some white radishes.

Jiang Ling simply cleaned the recovered vegetables and put them in a cool place.

Just after finishing the work at hand, Jiang Zhishan also finished the children's lessons. During these days, Jiang Zhishan was very caring about the children in Lujia Village, and sometimes even taught them an extra hour or two every day.

Thinking of this, Jiang Ling walked to Jiang Zhishan's side and said with concern: "Zhishan, you seem to be very busy these days, so don't delay your studies! Although you live with me, you still have to rush for the exam!"

The corners of Jiang Zhishan's mouth raised and he nodded to Jiang Ling: "Eldest sister, don't worry! But, I...I have something to tell you!"

During this time, Jiang Zhishan seldom hesitated with Jiang Ling like this. Seeing Jiang Zhishan's cautious look, the matter was estimated to be not small.

"Say it!" Jiang Ling said.

"I... I have been out for a while, I want to visit our mother at the end of this month, eldest sister, I... I know what my mother's attitude is towards you, but..."

"Well, let's go back to live for a few days at the end of the month. This is for you. I want to buy a few feet of cloth to make some clothes for myself, and then buy some snacks to go back!" Jiang Ling took out [-] copper coins from his pocket and put them in Jiang Zhishan's hand superior.

"Eldest sister... you... you are?" Jiang Zhishan thought that the hot-tempered elder sister would scold him, but he never expected that she would give him money.

Jiang Zhishan quickly put the copper plate on the table, waved his hands and said, "It's impossible, the elder sister has paid too much for the family these years, how can I ask for the money from the elder sister!"

"My money is for you, not for her. Ever since she turned me away that time, I knew that my relationship with her would be broken. This money is considered as the maintenance fee for the three children. Now, take it and don't lose it!" Jiang Ling had a strong attitude when he said these words, although Jiang Zhishan wanted to refuse, but seeing Jiang Ling's attitude, he didn't dare to say anything, so he could only carefully put away the copper coin.

"Zhishan, come with me!" Jiang Ling glanced around and said to Jiang Zhishan in a low voice after confirming that there was no one.

Seeing Jiang Ling's serious expression, Jiang Zhishan couldn't help feeling a little nervous, and followed Jiang Ling with his head down.

Jiang Ling came to the bedroom and carefully took out two ingots of silver from the jar. She wrapped the silver in cloth and put it in front of Jiang Zhishan and said, "Here, take this for you!"

"Ah? What? What?" Jiang Zhishan had never seen so much money before. Two ingots of silver felt like they weighed ten thousand catties in his hand.

"Take it! Put it away and don't throw it away!" Jiang Ling reminded again, looking amused at Jiang Zhishan's appearance.

"Ah! No way! Big sister, what are you doing?" Jiang Zhishan threw the silver on the ground as if he was throwing something terrible.

Jiang Ling picked up the money calmly and said: "There are still a few months before the Chinese New Year, and you will go to the exam next year. You don't need money for basic necessities along the way!"

"But... elder sister, I can make money myself..." When he said this again, Jiang Zhishan seemed very unconfident, and his voice became smaller and smaller in the end.

"What kind of money can you make? Are you pointing at the bundle repair fee given to you by the villagers? How much money can you exchange for those rice and white noodles even if you go to the town?"

Although Jiang Ling's words were not pleasant, they were true. Jiang Zhishan also understood that although he was teaching in the village, most of the villagers only gave him their own crops, and no one gave him money.

Thinking of this, Jiang Zhishan completely shut his mouth, and he looked at Jiang Ling in embarrassment, not knowing what to say.
