After her husband died in battle, she relied on the villain cub to make a comeback.

Seeing that his sister-in-law and cousin were calmed down for the time being, Ye Zhizhi took Wuya to buy some snacks while they were setting up a stall. He originally wanted to go shopping at Baichuan Restaurant and then go home. I once thought that before I took two steps, I saw Zhou Shuhe, whose face was red from the sun, and his entourage walking in.

"Little lady!" Zhou Shuhe was very happy to see her, and hurriedly snatched the barrel from the attendant's hand, "I don't know if you have a dog at home. If we keep the herring, we will throw it away. You might as well take it back and feed it to the dog. "

Ye Zhizhi, "?"

Ye Zhizhi took a look into the wooden barrels and saw that there were herrings of all sizes, big and small, in two or three barrels, a total of forty or fifty in total!

"You want to feed dogs before humans eat them? You rich kids are too extravagant, aren't you?"

"Herring is a cheap thing, fishy and smelly. You can buy one for three cents. How can a man of our status eat such unpalatable food?" The boy next to Zhou Shuhe frowned.

You know, except in the lean years, no serious person would eat something like fish. The fishy smell is unbearable. Apart from grilling it, it is just okay, but what is cooked in the pot is not delicious.

He remembered that when he was a child and lived a hard life with his parents, his mother was boiling water in a pot to cook fish. It was so fishy that he could vomit out the rice the night before, causing him to follow his husband. Although he was quite capable, he was not so good with fish. I also resist planting things.

Of course, this all depends on the big restaurants in the capital, and the herring they cook is too ordinary. Anyway, he has never eaten herring that tastes good.

"It tastes bad, that's because you don't know how to cook it!"

Ye Zhizhi saw the business opportunity in it at a glance, "This way, Zhou Shuhe, you give me forty fish, and I will be responsible for taking them out. The profit will be divided between the two of us [-]-[-], do you think it will work?"

If someone else was selling herring to make money, Zhou Shuhe would definitely not believe it. After all, this fish has a stronger earthy smell than ordinary river fish. But he recognized Ye Zhizhi's cooking skills and nodded immediately: "I will give you all the money you earn." You, with so many fish, can you sell them all?"

"You can question my appearance, but you can't underestimate my cooking skills!

Yaya, go and shout at the door of the restaurant. The new dish is Spicy Pickled Fish. Today's special price is one or two per piece. It's first come, first served. If it's late, it'll be sold out. "

"Spicy pickled fish?" Zhou Shuhe frowned.

"Yes, it's spicy, sour and refreshing. I guarantee you'll want to take another bite after one bite."

Just go ahead and marinate the herring with ginger, scallion and liquor to remove the fishy smell. Heat the oil in a pot and ask Zhao Zhongxiang to help him while teaching him how to make this dish.

Ye Zhizhi cooks very quickly.

Zhao Zhongxiang and Zhou Shuhe tasted it first. They all clapped their hands and praised it. The spicy taste burst into juice in their mouths. It was sour and spicy, soft and delicious.

Just the sauerkraut mixed rice makes people want to eat it!

"This herring fillet is really amazing, tender and juicy. I have never eaten anything so fragrant in my life. If I could eat it every day, I would die without regrets!" Zhao Zhongxiang sighed.

"You don't have to think about eating it every day." Ye Zhizhi knew a lot of fish cooking. He washed his hands and said heartily, "Our state is in such a drought, water sources are scarce, and the land in the countryside is cracked. Where can you get the water to raise fish?" Eat it every day.”

"Don't you know, little lady? You guys are short of everything, except fish! There is a canal in Qinghe County, which is used as a dock. Many people work there to catch fish."

"What?"

Ye Zhizhi was shocked, "Since there is water, why not dig canals to divert water to irrigate crops?"

As soon as these words were spoken, except for Zhao Zhongxiang, Zhou Shuhe and his subordinates looked at each other and saw shock in each other's eyes.

"What do you mean by digging canals to divert water? How to irrigate crops? Can you tell me in detail?"

The surprise and excitement on Zhou Shuhe's face did not seem to be fake. He tried to grab Ye Zhizhi's arm, but Ye Zhizhi ran and jumped away.

"Just say what you say, don't hold back on touching a widow!"

While complaining, Ye Zhizhi vaguely remembered that Emperor Sui Yang of the Tang Dynasty dug the Grand Canal. During the Qin Dynasty, the people did not know what digging canals to divert water meant. They relied on the sky for food. If the weather was good, the people would have enough to eat. Rice, if God turns against you, there will be mourning all over the place.

Ye Zhizhi thought of the people in the village and the children who had no food to eat, so she said a few words, "The cofferdam at the mouth of the canal is used to drain the water. First, main the main canal, then break the main canal weir, and then branch the canal..."

I was afraid that the other party wouldn't understand, so I simply made a drawing and talked about it while drawing.

The more he listened, the brighter Zhou Shuhe's eyes became. He simply clapped his hands and said, "It's amazing that a stone from another mountain can attack jade. How wonderful! Your brain is really worth your time. Why didn't I think of digging a ditch?"

"It's not just my brain that makes me talk. I stand on the shoulders of giants so I can talk endlessly."

Her country is the only big country with 5000 years of uninterrupted civilization. With nine years of compulsory education and the state paying for it, she has the opportunity to see the splendid and wise lives of her ancestors in the history books!

"You can help me take this fish to the inn! You can accept the one tael of silver. I have to go to the county seat and report to Your Majesty!"

Zhou Shuhe's fingers were trembling a little, but in the end he was dragged to the corner by Ye Zhizhi, and blurted out, "If this is successful, the success will last forever, and it will leave a name in history!"

What does it mean that there is no idle land in the world, farmers are starving to death, and they are digging in the fields for food? Paying taxes, resisting natural disasters, neighboring countries are at war, and it is difficult for the people to have enough to eat!

And digging canals, among other things, is a piece of cake when it comes to resisting natural drought!

But how many people to dig and how to dig is not decided by him or a small county magistrate. His Majesty needs to discuss it with the important ministers who can go to the Jinluan Palace in the morning and during the court, and then recruit tens of thousands of people. Maybe we can still save the food in the fields this year!

"What does that have to do with me?" History books can praise a woman so much, but do they think she is a three-year-old child?

Besides, "The digging of canals to divert water has nothing to do with me. I also heard what a senior said, you go write the memorial and this matter can be finalized as soon as possible."

Zhou Shuhe took a deep look at her. The woman's features were delicate and her movements were free and easy.

I still remember the first time we met. The woman’s round face and greed for money were not annoying. Instead, she gave people the impression that she had read poetry and books.

His heart beat two beats too fast for no reason. He quickly lowered his head and ran out, "I understand."

Ye Zhizhi, "..."

No, you know it if you know it, why are you blushing!

She sighed and continued cooking the fish.

Outside the restaurant, Wu Ya had a coincidence. Some gods descended to earth to cook, and the kitchen god entrusted her mother with a dream to develop this spicy pickled fish. It was so popular that it was popular in the sky and on the earth, and made the diners look curious, especially... The regular diners in the store all ordered one to try.

Although there were not many fish, there were forty fish, and everyone who had eaten said they were good, so people in the viewing areas rushed to grab them, and in less than an hour, they were all sold out.
