Space Farming: Traveling through Ancient Times to Do Business

"Wang, why are you looking for me instead of going to cook?" Jiang Chen looked at Jiang Wang with displeasure.

Jiang Wang looked at her mother-in-law timidly. After struggling for a long time, she finally mustered up the courage to say, "Mother, Sanniu wants two eggs and says she wants to make a dish..."

When Jiang Chen heard this, her brows immediately frowned.

She glared at Jiang Wangshi and said unhappily, "Eggs are for selling, not for cooking! Tell her there are no eggs!"

Jiang Wang was frightened by her mother-in-law's words. She didn't dare to disobey her mother-in-law's order, but her daughter asked, so she could only bite the bullet and continue asking.

"Mom, this dish requires two eggs. Can you give me two eggs?" Jiang Wang asked Old Lady Jiang cautiously.

When Mrs. Jiang heard this, she flew into a rage and yelled, "What? Two eggs? Wang, are you crazy or did I hear you wrong? Two more? Why don't you go and grab them!"

In her opinion, eggs are a precious commodity in the home. She usually doesn’t want to eat them, let alone use three eggs at a time to cook.

Seeing Jiang Wang go out, Jiang Xue felt that Jiang Chen would definitely not agree easily, so she had to think of a way. So she hurriedly chased after her and came up with a plan.

"Grandma, just take three eggs, and we'll try to make the dish in the book. If it succeeds, we'll set up a stall at the dock some other day. The food tastes good and it's filling, and it's a way to make money! By then, let alone three eggs, I can even take out thirty or three hundred." Jiang Xue said as she observed Jiang Chen's expression.

When Jiang Chen heard Jiang Xue's words, she was stunned for a moment, and then her brows gradually relaxed.

She thought that if this dish could really make money, it would be worth using three eggs.

Besides, Jiang Xue has always been very smart and sensible, so maybe she can really succeed this time.

So she took a deep breath, nodded and said, "Okay, I'll trust you this time. But if you can't cook delicious food, I'll show you how I'll deal with you!"

Jiang Xue was delighted when she heard this, she knew that she had successfully persuaded Jiang Chen.

After hearing Jiang Xue's words, Jiang Chen's doubts gradually dissipated, and she felt more and more that this idea was feasible.

The new grain tastes so delicious that if it is sold in the market, it will definitely attract many people to buy it.

After hesitating for a while, Jiang Chen returned to the room, took out two eggs from the unlocked cabinet, handed them to Jiang Xue who was standing at the door, and glared at Jiang Wang.

"Wang, don't waste my eggs. If I find out you waste them, I will peel you off." Jiang Chen warned seriously.

"Thank you, grandma." Jiang Xue took the eggs and walked quickly to the kitchen. She knew that these two eggs were the key to making delicious dishes.

Jiang Chen looked at Jiang Xue's departing back, thought for a while, and stopped Jiang Wang who was about to leave.

"Wang, wait a moment." Jiang Chen said.

Jiang Wang stopped and looked at Jiang Chen with some confusion.

Jiang Chen returned to the room, took out the key and reopened the cabinet.

In the cupboard was the meat that Jiang Tiao had brought back some time ago. When he brought it back, he had cut the meat into several pieces and wrapped it in oil paper.

Jiang Chen picked out the smallest piece of meat, weighing about three taels, and handed it to Jiang Wang.

"Take this meat and cook it together. Remember, don't waste it." Jiang Chenshi reminded.

Jiang Wang took the piece of meat, feeling both grateful and surprised.

For the first time ever, Jiang Chen actually took out pork, which surprised Jiang Wang very much.

She quickly took the piece of meat and walked quickly to the kitchen, fearing that Jiang Chen would go back on her word.

Jiang Xue, who was cutting white radish, saw the pork in her mother's hand and her eyes sparkled.

Since she came here, she has never eaten meat.

According to her memory, she could only see meat during festivals or weddings at home, and she was satisfied just by eating a few slices.

Jiang Xue never dreamed that the fat meat that she once despised in the 21st century would make her so greedy in this place.

Braised pork, twice-cooked pork, stir-fried pork...all the delicacies she could think of appeared in her mind in an instant.

"Mom, where does this pork come from?" Jiang Xue asked curiously.

Jiang Wang took the meat and walked towards Jiang Xue, saying, "Sanniu, go to the backyard and pick two cabbages. We are going to stew the cabbages today."

At the thought of having meat to eat, Jiang Xue immediately put down the knife in her hand and rushed to the backyard excitedly.

The backyard is about two or three acres in size. Although there are not many vegetables planted there, the more than ten cabbages among them are left over from the winter's frugal life.

Having just survived the winter and experienced the ravages of wind and frost, the outer layer of these cabbages is covered with a layer of rotten yellow leaves damaged by frost.

However, when you peel off these rotten yellow leaves, the leaves inside are tender yellow and very fresh and delicious.

Jiang Xue walked forward, carefully selected two cabbages that looked relatively large, and then quickly walked back to the kitchen.

"Mom, here, some cabbage." Jiang Xue handed the cabbage to Jiang Wang.

Jiang Wang took the cabbage, walked to the wooden basin in front of the water tank, scooped a few buckets of water, and then broke off the cabbage leaves one by one, washing them repeatedly. Then, she took the leaves and overlapped them, cut them in half, and filled a large basin with them.

Then she brought the chopped cabbage to the pot.

At this time, small pieces of meat cut into thumb-sized pieces had been placed beside the pot. Jiang Wang cleaned the pot quickly and looked at Jiang Xue.

"Sanniu, add some firewood to the stove. Mother is going to stir-fry the meat."

Hearing the order, Jiang Xue gathered the firewood at her feet and picked up a few larger pieces and put them into the stove.

The fire suddenly grew bigger and started to crackle.

Jiang Wang used her hand from a distance of several centimeters to feel the temperature of the pot and felt that the temperature was enough to put in the small pieces of meat.

After Jiang Wang put the small pieces of meat down, she quickly stir-fried the meat in the pan, making a sizzling sound.

As the temperature rises, the aroma of the meat gradually emanates, making people salivate.

When the meat was fried until a lot of oil was released, Jiang Wang picked up the prepared small jar and began to pour the excess oil into the jar.

Jiang Xue was anxious when she saw her mother put most of the oil into the small jar. She was worried that if all the oil was taken away, there would not be much oil left in the big pot of cabbage and the taste would be greatly reduced.

"Mom, you packed all the oil. There are so many cabbages and no oil at all. How can we eat them?" Jiang Xue couldn't help but say.

Jiang Wang, who was filling the pot with oil, was stunned for a moment, then turned around and looked at Jiang Xue, smiling and said, "Sanniu, look, there is still a lot of oil in the pot!"

After saying that, Jiang Wang turned around and scooped a few scoops of water into the pot.

Then she said to Jiang Xue, "Sanniu, when the water boils, remember to pour all the cabbage into the pot. I'll go check on your grandfather and the others."

Jiang Xue nodded and replied, "Mom, go ahead! I'm here."

Before long, the water in the pot began to boil.

Jiang Xue picked up the salt beside her, added two spoonfuls of it, and then poured a large pot of cabbage into the pot.

With the addition of cabbage, the aroma in the pot becomes more intense, fragrant and mouth-watering.

She swallowed and turned her eyes to another pot in the kitchen. Jiang Xue picked up the wooden bucket and filled the pot with hot water, then brought the shredded radish and the egg mixture to the pot.
