The husband is the future chief [infrastructure]

Lin Zhao thought over and over again, and decided to listen to Jiang Ziyan's words and go to the town to study.If he is successful in his studies, he will be able to protect him a little bit if he enters the officialdom in the future.Moreover, he is very confident in his reading, and he can't let him down.

The matter of studying cannot be delayed. The small courtyard in the town has not been repaired yet. Jiang Ziyan bought some new tables, chairs and benches, and some other things. Most importantly, Jiang Ziyan drew a blueprint for him and asked someone to remodel it bathroom.

Wait a few days for the yard to be repaired and let Lin Zhao go to study.

The carambola picked a few days ago was stuffy in the jar. He followed the steps in the encyclopedia to make fruit wine, but he didn't know if it would work.

In addition to making wine, he also made some canned carambola.

Qingshan squatted aside to watch him put the processed carambola pulp into a small jar. He was very curious. During this period of time, he often ran to Jiang Ziyan. , isn’t this a wild fruit from the mountain, it’s sour and astringent, it’s not tasty at all, so what’s the use of picking it?”

"This is called canned carambola. You will know it in a few days. Not only is it not sour, but it also tastes delicious."

Qingshan has a dubious expression on his face, but Mr. Xiao Lang really knows a lot, maybe he is really sweet!

"Xiao Langjun is really amazing, I feel like you can do everything!" Qingshan praised from the bottom of his heart, Xiao Langjun is the smartest person he has ever met.

Sure enough, after a few days, the canned carambola was opened. It tasted sweet and sour, and the taste was very good. Jiang Ziyan sent a can to Qingshan.

"Qingshan, please ask me if there is anyone in the village who is willing to help pick carambola. I will pay the wages by the catty, two cents per catty."

"Alright sir, I'll go right away!"

In the village, except for some craftsmen who can earn some money, the other well-connected people basically work outside, and the rest of the poorly-connected people do farm work at home, earning very little money throughout the year.And I heard that taxes have increased in recent years, and the lives of ordinary people have become more difficult.

Since Jiang Ziyan bought eggs, many people in the village have gained another source of income, but the eggs are not always available in large quantities. This time he said that he bought carambola, which undoubtedly caused an uproar in the village.

After Qingshan got the words, he went to the east of the village to find Lizheng with joy on his face. Few people believed what he said, so it was not as credible as what Lizheng said.

Although Li Zheng is old, he is very prestigious, and he couldn't hide his joy when he heard this. This is to lead the whole village to become rich!

"Hurry up, hurry up, go and call everyone, and just say that I have something to announce!"

"okay!"

Qingshan was busy calling people from door to door, and in a short while, a large group of people surrounded the house.

Seeing that almost everyone had arrived, Li Zheng said, "I called everyone here today because I have a very good thing to say."

The onlookers couldn't wait to ask: "Li Zheng, tell me quickly, what a great thing! Could it be that the imperial court wants to reduce or exempt taxes?"

"There is no tax reduction or exemption, but this is a great thing!" The people in the village looked very happy on the surface, and began to guess what a good thing it was.

"Lizheng, hurry up and say, don't be a fool, my baby is still waiting to go back to breastfeed!"

The people around urged him, seeing this, Li Zheng didn't hold back any more, and told about Jiang Ziyan's purchase of carambola, "Mr. Jiang Xiaolang from our village said that in the future he will not only buy eggs, but also a fruit that grows on the back mountain. It's two cents a catty, everyone picks it up and takes it to the Lin family to settle the settlement."

Before Li Zheng finished speaking, the surroundings seemed to be exploding. Everyone was talking about it, and couldn't believe it was true. "Li Zheng, are you sure it's true and you didn't lie to us?"

"Of course it's true. If you don't believe me, ask Qingshan. Qingshan works for Mr. Jiang Xiaolang. He knows this matter best."

Seeing that everyone had doubts, Qing Shan hurriedly said: "Folks, this is all true. Just now, Mr. Lang asked me to inform you. Mr. Mr. said that the fruit on the mountain is called carambola, and it is this kind." Qing Shan conceived He took out a carambola and showed it, "Look, everyone, this is it."

Someone nearby recognized it immediately, "Isn't this from the fruit forest in the back mountain? I picked a few before, but it was sour and astringent. It really didn't taste good. Why does Mr. Jiang Xiaolang want it?"

Qingshan smiled, "As for what my lord wants it to do, you don't have to worry about it, I have already brought it, if you want to pick it up, if I were you, I would take it up the mountain now."

Qingshan does not regard himself as an outsider at all, as if he already feels that he is Jiang Ziyan's right-hand man, and now he has begun to call Jiang Ziyan my husband.

When the onlookers heard Qingshan's words, they immediately reacted, and hurried home to get their things up the mountain. The originally huge crowd dispersed quickly.

Everyone wants to go up the mountain to pick the fruit. This carambola is not like an egg. It costs almost nothing, as long as you pick it yourself, you can sell it for money. Isn’t it free?Everyone understands such a simple truth.

It's just that there are only so many fruits on the mountain, and some are picked less, so we must seize the opportunity to seize the opportunity.

Jiang Ziyan didn't know that the news that he said he wanted to buy carambola caused a frenzy in the village to hunt carambola. At this moment, he had just packed two cans of food and a pot of newly brewed wine, and was going to visit Master Shen's house. Last time he promised I'll ask him to taste it when it's brewed.

And in the future, Ah Zhao will probably take the way of the imperial examination, so as to gain some goodwill, it may be useful in the future.

After Jiang Ziyan made up his mind, he went out, leaving Lin Zhao at home to help collect carambola. Not only was he good at learning the Four Books and Five Classics, but he was also good at arithmetic. Jiang Ziyan was very relieved to hand over the family to him.

Qingshan drove the donkey cart for him and took him all the way to the town.

During this period of time, Aoyama has almost become his exclusive driver. Although he agreed to help him drive the car to deliver eggs, but later he needs to go to the town frequently. Aoyama is very enthusiastic to help him drive the car. After a long time, he also uses I got used to it, and the wages paid to Qingshan were much higher.

About half an hour later, the donkey cart arrived outside the gate of Shen's house, just in time for lunch.Jiang Ziyan sent Qingshan to eat at the market by himself, and then knocked on the door. After the door was opened, someone informed him, and after a while, someone came to welcome him in.

Master Shen seemed very happy to see him, and quickly greeted him to take his seat: "My little friend, why are you here, I have been looking forward to you for a long time!"

Immediately after Jiang Ziyan sat down, someone came over to add a pair of bowls and chopsticks. He half-jokingly said: "I think the old man is not looking forward to me, but to the dishes I cook!"

"Hahaha, my little friend who knows me!" Shen Zhou looked very happy today, he felt very good about this junior, which always gave him a kind feeling.

"How would you like today's stewed chicken?" Mr. Shen asked.

This yellow stewed chicken was one of the recipes he gave to the cook last time. He took a bite and tasted it. "The taste is a bit bland, and the stewing time is too short, which affects the taste."

It's far worse than what he ate in his previous life, okay?

"Little friend is really proficient in this way. Alas, I don't know when I will be lucky enough to eat the food made by my own hands again!"

Well, I want him to cook again, but today is too late, and the other dishes will be cold when he cooks them.

Jiang Ziyan took out the basket in his hand, opened the lid, and took out two small jars inside, "Last time I said I would make some fruit wine for you to try, no, I brought it for you as soon as I finished it today, you can try it taste?"

"Quickly pour quickly." Shen Zhou already smelled a sweet smell.

I don't know how Jiang Ziyan brewed it. The fruit wine in the glass has a sweet taste and a bit of spicy taste. It tastes very refreshing.

"This wine is really delicious!" Before he knew it, Shen Zhou had already finished three glasses.

Jiang Ziyan hurriedly stopped him from drinking the fourth cup, "Don't be greedy, old man. Drinking a little of this wine will help the stomach and intestines to digest it, but drinking too much will have the opposite effect. Why don't you try the canned food I made?"

He opened the lid of the carambola can, scooped out the can with a spoon, and handed it over to an empty bowl.

"Canned food? What's that?" Shen Zhou became even more interested. He tasted the canned food. It was soft, sweet and sour, and it tasted very delicious.

This little friend can bring him surprises every time he comes, like a treasure, you will never know what he will bring out next time.

Moreover, he is humble and polite, and he speaks generously. No matter how he looks, he doesn't look like he was raised in this poor village.

Shen Zhou really liked him more and more.

After the meal was over, Shen Zhou still didn't want to let him go, "Aside from cooking, do you do anything else?"

"Other?"

"Like playing chess?"

Jiang Ziyan said: "I have learned a little bit, but I am very bad at chess." In his previous life, he joined a Go club when he was in college, and learned a little bit from the president. He is really very good.

"Why don't you accompany me to the next game?"

"No, no, next time, old man, I have something to do at home, so I have to go back quickly." Jiang Ziyan resolutely refused. If he agrees, I don't know how long he will be able to go back. I can't tell that this old man is quite clingy.

Mr. Shen was not very happy, but there was nothing he could do about it, so he had to say that he would definitely come to compete next time.

In the end, Jiang Ziyan said that he would send them a few jars of fruit wine when he went back for a few days, and he became happy again.

Jiang Ziyan thought to himself, he couldn't tell that this old man turned out to be a naughty boy.

The servants of the Shen family sent Jiang Ziyan all the way out, and they were very respectful to him on the way, and said: "Young Lord is really powerful, our master is usually very good, and rarely sees guests, let alone being invited by him to eat at the same table At this age, Mr. Xiao Lang is still the first one!"

After answering a few words, Jiang Ziyan walked out of the gate of Shen's house, and Qingshan was already waiting outside.

On the way, Qingshan couldn't help but asked: "Mr. Lang, what kind of family is the Shen family? I think there are carriages from their family!"

Horse-drawn carriages are very rare in this small town, Aoyama was surprised.

Jiang Ziyan couldn't tell the identity of the Shen family, so he said: "It should just be that the family background is better, their master likes to eat the dishes I cook."

Speaking of this, Qingshan began to blow rainbow farts again. The key is that he really admires Jiang Ziyan, and he said it very sincerely, full of stars: "The dishes made by Lang Jun are the best meals that Qingshan has ever eaten. Moreover, the canned food made by Lang Jun is also delicious, and there are so many things that Lang Jun knows, and Lang Jun is really the smartest person I have ever met!"
