Chapter 154: Work hard, young man
After receiving another reward, Ye Tang looked at the gold notes in the space and suddenly felt like a millionaire. She had never been so rich before.
Moreover, she also has a golden medal for immunity from death and a golden medal for immunity from kneeling, both of which are good things!
Emperor Yuanwu was quite open-minded.
It was worth her hard work to grow these things.
"Husband, our lives are getting better and better. Anyway, we are not short of money now. I will not care about business matters anymore. I will leave it to you, my father and Ping An. I want to concentrate on planting."
There were too many things that were in short supply in the Yuan Dynasty, and even silver could not buy them. Since she could not buy them, she grew her own crops, and sold what her family could not finish.
Ye Tang was full of energy and began to plan to adjust the planting progress.
She has already handed over good things such as sugar and high-yield grain that are related to the country's economic lifeline to the court. Next, she just needs to wait for the court to improve the planting. She doesn't need to send anything else. She can just concentrate on improving her own and her family's abilities and grow what she likes.
Although the servants she bought were all good at planting, the things she wanted to plant were almost all rare products not found in this world. The servants had never come into contact with them, and even with her guidance, it was very difficult to plant them.
Every half a month, Ye Tang would ask all managers to come to Qingquan Village for a meeting and pass on the planting knowledge he knew to them.
Now Ye Tang has six managers under him, one manager is in charge of one area. Except Yan Xiao, the other five managers have signed death contracts.
These stewards who had signed the death contract thought that they would be tortured to the point of being unrecognizable by their masters when they came to the countryside, but they never expected that their masters were very tolerant and never abused them. Although farm work was tiring, they could eat, drink, dress, sleep well every day, and receive a salary of 600 coins every month...
Although they were still slaves in essence, they had some freedom and lived a life that only ordinary people could enjoy.
Time passed slowly, the weather became colder, the managers learned more and more, and Baiwei Fresh's business became better and better. Almost everyone in the entire county knew about the existence of Baiwei Fresh.
The things there are inexpensive and there are many varieties. Not only ordinary people come to Baiwei Fresh to buy things, but restaurants in the county town also come to Baiwei Fresh to get goods.
Among them, Tianyu Restaurant has the most frequent transactions with Baiwei Fresh Food. Almost all the ingredients of Tianyu Restaurant are now sourced from Baiwei Fresh Food.
Tianyu Restaurant’s business is so popular that it has surpassed Tingxuan Restaurant and has become the most popular restaurant in the county.
Logically speaking, Tingxuan Restaurant should have been panicking, but it did not make any move at all and still maintained its previous business model without any changes, as if to indicate that it disdained to compete with Tianyu Restaurant.
"Sister, who do you think is the owner behind this Tingxuan Restaurant? All their customers have been snatched away by Tianyu Restaurant, so how can they still be so calm?" Ye Ping'an pulled a red radish from the vegetable garden, peeled it with a knife, and took a bite: "Hmm? Sister, this radish is so sweet."
Baiwei Fresh Food's business is getting better and better. Almost all the restaurants and hotels in the county come to Baiwei Fresh Food to purchase, except Tingxuan Restaurant. Not to mention the restaurant owner, even the waiters and the shopkeeper, no one has ever come to Baiwei Fresh Food.
Ye Tang picked some rotten leaves and threw them into the backpack: "It's possible that the owner of Tingxuan Restaurant is not short of money and doesn't like our things."
"Our products are so good, why doesn't Tingxuan Restaurant like them?" Ye Ping'an has a mysterious confidence in his own products. Nothing his sister makes can't be sold.
Ye Tang carried the basket on his back and walked out of the vegetable garden: "Not everyone thinks our food is good. Well, don't dwell on this. Who opened the Tingxuan Restaurant has nothing to do with us. As long as that person doesn't come to mess with us, that's fine."
Ye Tang came to the outside of the chicken coop and poured all the vegetable leaves in. A group of chickens immediately ran over, grabbing the leaves and cackling non-stop.
Ye Tang threw the backpack to Ye Ping'an, who caught it and put it away: "I'm just curious. I always feel that the person behind Tingxuan Restaurant is not simple."
"If you are really curious, just go to Tingxuan Restaurant and pretend to be a guest. Just be sure to pay attention to safety." Ye Tang went to the kitchen where the servants were preparing lunch.
For lunch we had bacon, beans and rice hotpot.
Since the beginning of winter, they have been lighting the iron stove and have been eating hot pot almost every day at home.
Pork trotter hotpot, spicy chicken hotpot, dried tofu hotpot, spicy hotpot... whatever Ye Tang could think of, she made and ate.
Lunch was ready, Xiao Jingxuan, Ye Peng, Liu An, and Hong Longfei came back on time, washed up, and sat down in the dining room, taking a deep breath, each of them looking fascinated.
Ye Tang looked at him with great disdain: "This isn't your first time eating this, is there any need to be so exaggerated?"
Liu An smiled: "It's not an exaggeration, eating has to be this particular."
Ye Tang: "It should be done with a sense of ceremony."
Liu An stroked his beard and said, "Sense of ritual? This word is good. Okay, let's call it a sense of ritual from now on."
After a hearty lunch, Ye Pingan pulled Ye Tang aside to chat: "Sister, it's almost New Year's Day, why hasn't Grandfather come to pick us up yet? He has been back in Beijing for a long time."
Ye Tang shook his head: "I don't know, maybe something delayed him."
Ye Ping'an guessed, "Maybe he didn't believe what his father said and didn't punish Ye Qianlan."
Ye Tang: "If he doesn't believe in Dad, then we can also do without him as a grandfather."
Ye Ping'an nodded vigorously: "In my heart, grandpa will never be as important as dad. If grandpa doesn't avenge grandma, we will do it ourselves and give grandpa a lesson as well."
Ye Tang patted his shoulder and said, "Grandfather is very strong. If you want to deal with him, you must be strong enough. Try your best, young man."
The next day, Ye Ping'an's training was doubled.
Ye Tang looked at him with a smile: "Brother, you need to exercise more in winter. Do you want to try winter swimming?"
Ye Ping'an was horrified: "I will freeze to death."
Jamel Xiao held the silver needle in his hand and said, “As long as I’m here, you won’t die. Even if you die, I can still revive you.”
Ye Peng laughed with glee at the sidelines.
Ye Tang looked over and said, "Dad, you come too."
Ye Peng couldn't laugh anymore.
There has been no news about the Duke of Protectorate returning to Beijing for such a long time, and Ye Peng felt both expectant and disappointed. Now that he has started his hellish training, he has no time to think about it.
In a blink of an eye it was New Year's Eve.
Ye Tang has been waiting for this New Year for a long time.
When she was in China, she also had parents. The year she was admitted to university, her parents died in a plane crash, and she has been alone ever since.
Every Chinese New Year, she had great cooking skills but no one would taste the food.
This year, she finally has her family to celebrate the New Year with her!
"Happy New Year!"
