Chapter 22 Chapter 22 Building a Chicken Coop
After eating and drinking, Jiang Heng received another large order!
Amway from Song Ming.
The mushrooms were successfully promoted and were widely recognized by her former colleagues. Many people wanted to purchase them on her behalf, so Jiang Heng didn't have to worry about it. Song Ming directly reported the total amount needed. Because the quantity was too large, she couldn't help dry them, so she could only order dried mushrooms directly.
Black fir mushroom, fir tree mushroom and tea tree mushroom are all three pounds, porcini mushroom and chicken mushroom are both two pounds, and woodland mushrooms are ten pounds.
The quantity is so large because many people have placed orders.
It is said that her friend was having lunch in a restaurant at noon, and the food she cooked was almost snatched away, so everyone decided to share the bill. Since everyone had a good relationship, these few people shared the bill, and others also joined in the fun, buying half a pound or a pound of food each, and the total amount was this much.
The price of dried mushrooms is eight times higher than that of fresh mushrooms, which means that the net income from this order is 16,080 yuan!
Of course, the goods had not arrived yet and the money had not arrived, but Jiang Heng felt that the income was already in her bank card after rounding it off.
I put down my phone happily and went to feed the puppy.
Jiang Heng didn't eat meat today, and the dishes were a bit salty, so she thawed a piece of pork from the refrigerator and cooked it for the puppy. The puppy, who had just eaten a small piece of tomato, looked at the pork with disgust, reluctantly ate half of it to fill its stomach, and kept the rest.
Picky eater!
Too picky an eater!
But Jiang Heng understood, as she felt the same way. Otherwise, the meat wouldn't have been left until now. The puppy wouldn't eat it, and it wouldn't be good to leave it until night. So she simply took it out and put it outside the yard so that any cats and dogs in the village who passed by could have a piece of it.
After taking care of your stomach, it’s time to take care of your income.
He quickly carried the bucket and net bag to the big pond on the other side of the mountain.
Going down from the paved stone slab and approaching the water surface, Jiang Heng skillfully made a Spirit Rain Technique. A small amount of spiritual rain began to fall again, creating layers of ripples on the water surface. Soon, the creatures in the water caught it and rushed over, wanting to devour the good stuff that fell.
The area is experiencing violent fluctuations that can be seen with the naked eye.
Jiang Heng took advantage of this opportunity and directly grabbed the net bag and went over from bottom to top.
There was a "splash" sound of water.
The net bag was heavy with a bunch of fish and shrimp.
Eh?!
This time we caught not only fish, but also a lot of crayfish!
I almost forgot that this is the season for eating crayfish, and this attracted all the crayfish.
They were all huge lobsters waving black and red claws.
The net bag was full, and if it weren't for Jiang Heng's amazing arm strength, he wouldn't have been able to hold it all.
The first thing he did was to transfer the fish and shrimps into a bucket, and then put some water in it to give them some space to move around. Then Jiang Heng picked out the smaller ones, rolled them up with the water flow and threw them back into the pond, leaving only a dozen big fish and not the crayfish.
This kind of crayfish with black and red shells is hard and not easy to chew. When she has time, she will use a ground trap to get more edible ones.
The creatures in the pond here are richer than you might imagine.
More than ten fish were taken back and placed in separate basins. A little more spiritual water was added to the basin. They were kept until five o'clock, just in time for delivery. After finishing the preparations, Jiang Heng was about to get up when he saw the caramel pudding dog playing nearby, which seemed to have smelled something delicious and came over stealthily.
Then, before she could react, she "gulped" and licked a big mouthful of the fish water.
“Ouch!”
The two dogs' faces showed obvious surprise.
Then he buried it directly and licked the water frantically.
Jiang Heng: “…”
He quickly scooped up one with one hand, ignoring the eight little fat legs struggling, and closed the door to the backyard. Amid the two miserable whimpers, he added some spiritual water to the disposable bowls separately: "Alright, I'll give it to you to drink."
“Ah~~~”
The voice immediately became soft and cute.
As soon as they were put down, they waved their chubby legs and rushed over to drink water.
Jiang Heng watched for a while and went upstairs to practice.
It's still early, so I'll practice for two hours and then go downstairs at three o'clock to work with them. I'll finish early. Tomorrow I'll have to sow grass seeds on the remaining two acres of land and receive the ordered bricks, tiles, cement, and wood. The day after tomorrow the master will be there to start repairing the chicken coop, sheep pen, and pigpen.
After these are repaired, we will go buy chickens, ducklings, lambs and piglets.
Just wait until the grass is half grown, then she can secretly water it with some spiritual rain, and then she will be able to take care of these young livestock and poultry.
——
But Chen Aying and the others were much more diligent than she expected.
At three o'clock, when Jiang Heng showed up on time wearing a straw hat, a group of people had been working in the rice field for quite some time. Only one-third of the work was left to be completed, and now they had finished another half.
Jiang Peng held his aching waist and complained to her in a low voice: "My mom and the others can't sit still. They can't wait to come out at two o'clock. I tried to stop them, but at half past two, they ran out..."
Jiang Heng patted her shoulder and said, "Thank you for your hard work."
Jiang Peng:o(╥﹏╥)o
So Jiang Heng kindly took her to the wheat field and said, "This isn't tiring. You spread the seeds and I'll bury them."
Jiang Peng: "Sure!"
Working together as a team makes work less tiring.
The ground had been deeply plowed and the soil was loose. First, dig a long hole, sow the seeds, and then cover it with a rake.
Jiang Heng was strong enough that the farm tools, which were originally quite heavy, became as light as balloon toys in her hands. She hardly used any strength in her arms and buried the seeds skillfully while chatting.
It was easier for Jiang Peng to sow the seeds. The two of them chatted and laughed, and before they knew it, they had done a lot.
After all the rice seedlings were planted in the rice fields, Chen Aying and others came over and saw that more than half of the half acre of land here was already dry.
It was exactly five o'clock, and Jiang Heng was going to deliver the goods, so the rest was left to them.
There are so many of them, this job can be done in half an hour at most.
Therefore, Chen Aying specifically asked her for grass seeds, and after the work was done, she directly spread the grass seeds on the remaining two acres of land.
The two acres of land were simply plowed over. Originally, the grass growing there was some grass that pigs and sheep didn't like to eat, so it had to be plowed over and replanted. Jiang Heng bought ryegrass and Mexican corn grass, both of which can be eaten by pigs and sheep, and they grow very fast, making them very suitable for livestock.
Jiang Heng was ashamed of the diligence of his elders.
She planned to finish these tasks in two days.
Finally, it was finished in one day.
——
Of course, Jiang Heng, who was busy delivering goods, was also very diligent.
There is no need to set up a stall, and the delivery speed is still very fast.
Fruit shop, noodle shop, fast food restaurant... the money was paid in advance, she could just drop off her things and leave.
When Jiang Heng delivered the mushrooms to the fast food restaurant, she was surprised. The fast food restaurant mainly sells mushrooms at a low price and fast speed, so why would they buy her mushrooms?
This price doesn't make sense.
But when I went in, I found that the store also had special stir-fried dishes.
Moreover, there is a free soup at the fast food restaurant. The soup has the familiar delicious flavor. Although it is much lighter, it does contain mushrooms.
There were quite a few customers inside at this time.
When Jiang Heng walked over, the boss was busy and sweating, but his smile was particularly bright. Seeing her coming, he quickly waved: "Boss Jiang, you can just leave it at the door. Sorry, I'm too busy to greet you."
Jiang Heng found a secluded place at the door to put it down and said with a smile, "It's okay, no need to greet me, just go ahead and do your thing, I'll take it to the next one."
A customer happened to pass by and smelled the fragrance of the mushrooms. He was surprised and said, "Boss, you bought mushrooms too! These mushrooms are so valuable. I only bought a few for my children to taste."
The fast food restaurant owner said, "It's expensive, but don't you all say it tastes good? Let's go buy some. Look, this soup is made with mushrooms, it's really delicious. I even had two big bowls today."
"Wow, this is mushroom soup. I'll have a bowl too." The customer immediately went over to get it.
The other guests who hadn't noticed the soup also rushed over to serve themselves, praising it as they drank, "It tastes really good!"
"It's a pity I'm already full. I'll come back tomorrow to drink more. This soup is really good."
The boss listened and smiled.
Didn't he just buy some to try after seeing everyone around him being attracted by mushrooms? Yesterday, he bought a few dozen and cooked a soup. Business was pretty good that night. Not to mention, the soup, even though it looked light and refreshing with mushrooms in it, had a really appealing aroma.
Unfortunately, he was reluctant to put too much, so he had to add more water, which diluted the taste a lot.
But it’s also very good, and all the customers who have tried it like it.
Isn't it free? Why do you need a bike?
Anyway, he made back his money last night and even earned a lot more.
Therefore, today he specially ordered a meal worth 500 yuan and also arranged for cooking.
*
Jiang Heng didn't pay much attention to the bustling atmosphere in the store. After delivering the goods, he immediately went to the next store.
The noodle shop, on the other hand, had very few customers at the moment. The boss and his wife were smiling brightly, saying that all the noodles were sold out this morning and they were just waiting for her chicken mushrooms to arrive. They would make some chicken mushroom oil and then go back to rest.
Jiang Heng was also very happy, everyone made money together!
There are six delivery companies in total.
After delivering all the goods, he returned to the stall. He had already sent a message to Gao Xiuling in advance, asking her to come and pick up the fish. He also delivered Song Ming's two fish and the mushrooms she bought. Today, Song Ming bought mushrooms worth seven hundred yuan, and once again bought all the ones that she had picked out because they were of poor quality.
As well as a carp and a grass carp. Mainly because she heard that the fried fish nuggets Jiang Heng ate were particularly delicious, she also wanted to eat them.
Grass carps are big, especially the one she wanted, which is almost four pounds. Part of it can be used to make fish balls and the other part can be used to make fried fish, giving her two meals a day.
This reminded Jiang Heng again.
I’ll make fish balls tomorrow!
She also had two big grass carps that no one wanted before. They were kept in spiritual water for the past two days, with some vegetable leaves thrown in from time to time. They didn't lose much weight, but she wasn't sure what they would be like in a couple of days, so she ate them first.
Seeing that there were only two fish left in her basket, Song Ming asked curiously, "Will you come to set up a stall tomorrow?"
Jiang Heng: "Not sure, we'll see when the time comes."
Song Ming envied: "You really do whatever you want."
Jiang Heng smiled: "Setting up a stall is all about being free to do whatever you want, right?"
Song Ming choked. Is that so?
So what does it mean that she's diligent and works almost every day unless it rains? Is it because she's used to the life of a slave?
After Jiang Heng finished speaking, he was also stunned for a moment.
A few days ago, she was thinking that if she could find someone to take over the stall, she could free up her time to do other things. But now, this casual remark made her have a different idea. Setting up a stall is quite fun.
Jiang Heng has never been a warm-hearted person, especially before she traveled through time. In order to pay off her debts, she was even more depressed. She didn't have many good friends and had a weak relationship with everyone. Maintaining relationships requires money, and it happened that she was most in need of money. Some people don't care about the feeling of being in debt, but some people find it unbearable to sleep and eat. Jiang Heng happened to be the latter, so she worked hard just to pay off her debts in advance.
Even though Jiang Peng has a pretty good relationship with her now, when she was working in Beijing, they were just acquaintances who liked each other's posts on WeChat Moments.
Apart from the big age gap, we didn't grow up together at all. Also, she was dull and we lived far away. She was fine in college, but she never returned to the village after graduation, so naturally we had no contact.
But after the time travel, Jiang Heng's personality became much more cheerful. After setting up the stall, she smiled at everyone. Most of the customers took the initiative to talk to her, and she would reply with a few words, talking much more than usual.
I can also chat with Jiang Peng.
Moreover, the main point of setting up a stall is that you can do whatever you want and be your own boss. You can come when you want to, and rest at home when you don’t want to.
There's no need to set rules for yourself.
It’s also a good entertainment.
especially--
"Boss!" A surprised shout came from a distance.
Jiang Heng looked over when he heard the voice and saw a familiar customer coming over with a look of surprise: "Boss, I thought you weren't coming today!"
Jiang Heng: “…”
Guilty conscience.
But I still feel happy to be thought of like this.
Her eyes drifted for a moment. "I wasn't planning on coming. I didn't have much work to do around the house, so I came here to deliver the goods." She pulled out her phone and asked, "Would you like to add me on WeChat? If there's a chance, we can make an appointment and have it delivered to your door."
The customer was just disappointed to find that there seemed to be no goods in the basket, but he immediately changed his mind after hearing this. He took out his phone and said, "Okay, okay, let me add one more person. Boss, do you have a group? Then we can add more people and make management easier."
Jiang Heng's heart moved slightly: "Not yet, I will make one when the time comes."
The customer added me on WeChat but didn’t stay long. He wasn’t there to buy groceries anyway, so he just said something and left.
As soon as she left, Gao Xiuling came over happily with a bright smile: "Oh, the boss is really here, thank you very much! I was still worried this morning, regretting that I shouldn't have drunk that fish soup yesterday. If I had known, I would have saved it for my daughter. It's a good thing you asked me specifically."
Jiang Heng couldn't help laughing at what he said: "No, I'm doing business."
She handed over the two fish that Gao Xiuling wanted. The fish were covered with two layers of plastic bags, half of which were filled with water. The bags were heavy. The two crucian carps rolled over from time to time, slapping the bags and making popping sounds, still full of energy.
Jiang Heng reminded them, "The fish are here. If you don't eat them directly, don't pour out the water. Just use this water to feed them. They should be able to survive for two days."
Gao Xiuling nodded repeatedly: "Okay, boss, this is very thoughtful."
She understood that this should be the water originally used for raising fish, so the fish could live two more days. But no wonder the fish was sold so expensively, the water for raising fish was so clear!
After expressing his gratitude several times, he happily hung the bag on the electric bike and drove back carefully.
Jiang Heng sighed.
Look at the emotional value.
Setting up a stall allows you to see these feedbacks face to face.
fine.
Since she sets up the stall as she pleases, it doesn't matter whether she hires people or not. She won't set up the stall when she's busy, and will sell when she has time. Anyway, she sells whatever she has.
Thinking of this, I felt clear all over.
——
Jiang Heng said hello to Song Ming and left happily.
Before leaving the county, I went to the bank to withdraw money. To pay Shen Li and the others, cash was the most convenient way.
When I get home, the first thing I do is calculate today’s income.
Ye Sui's payment has not been fulfilled yet, so not counting it, the total income from today's six guests who made reservations plus the orders from Song Ming and Gao Xiuling is 5,550 yuan, and today's expenditure is 1,000 yuan in labor costs, so Jiang Peng's payment will not be given.
It was obvious that she only came to help out because of their sisterly relationship and the personal connections between them, so it would be inappropriate to charge her for it.
When the time comes, bring her some more mushrooms, mulberries and the remaining fish so that she doesn't suffer any loss.
That means a net income of four thousand five hundred!
It's really pleasing to look at.
After calculating the final number, Jiang Heng sighed and went to the field with the money.
It is almost half past six now, and the grass seeds on the two acres of land have been almost sown.
Jiang Changhai noticed her arrival immediately and said happily, "It's sold out so quickly?"
Jiang Heng didn't explain that he was just delivering a shipment today. He smiled and nodded, "Yes, you guys are so fast. It's almost done."
Jiang Changhai: "Haha, it's okay, it's just that we were delayed for a while at noon. Oh, Xiaoheng, can you connect the water pipe? We can help you water the plants."
"Yes, do you have a water pump at home?" Jiang Guoxia also asked: "If not, I'll go home and get it for you."
Jiang Heng quickly said, "No, no, the weather forecast says it will rain in the next two days, so let's wait for the rain. If it's not enough, the water pump I bought will arrive tomorrow."
"Oh, what a coincidence?" Shen Li was surprised. She wiped her hands and took out her cell phone to look.
"No?" Jiang Peng saw it first and was a little confused: "It said it would be cloudy, but it didn't say it would rain."
Jiang Heng affirmed, "I did, but you know the weather forecast changes from time to time now, and it might have changed again now. If there is rain, we should wait for it. If it doesn't rain by tomorrow evening, we can fill it ourselves with a hose."
She has a point.
Rainwater is better for plants.
A few people nodded. After working for a whole day, they were indeed tired, so they didn't insist.
As they were talking, the last bit of grass seeds was spilled. They checked carefully again and added the remaining grass seeds. After confirming that the seeds were evenly distributed in every area, they clapped their hands and called it a day.
Jiang Heng waited for them to finish their work before going over to pay their salaries.
So strange.
Pay wages to elders.
The few people probably felt it was strange and felt a little awkward when they took it. Chen Aying didn't want it yet, but only accepted it after Jiang Heng persuaded her. After getting the money, the attitudes of these people were very similar. They touched it like a treasure, then rolled it up and put it in their pocket.
Jiang Heng held Jiang Peng's hand and said, "Sister, you don't have any, but we have other things. Do you want mushrooms? And fish, everything is ready!"
"Yes! How could I not want it?! Then I'll get the advantage!" Jiang Peng also nodded happily.
On the way back, Jiang Heng pulled her into the house and handed over the prepared mushrooms, fish, and mulberries. He also gave each of the three families a fish and a pound of mulberries. On the surface, the busy day was over!
In fact, after dark, around eleven o'clock, Jiang Heng got up and launched a large-scale rainfall.
It's all ordinary rainwater, and doesn't require much spiritual power.
Before, she could only cover an area of 200 meters at most, but now that she has reached the second level of Qi Refining, she can cover an area of one kilometer. The rain also lasted for half an hour, soaking the land that had just been planted during the day, and the seeds buried in the soil were also soaked by the rain.
Afterwards, he resumed his meditation and practiced for one cycle. After that, his Dantian was filled with spiritual energy again. He then sent down spiritual rain for 30 seconds on his five acres and five mu of land.
You don't need too much spiritual energy, otherwise your growth rate will be exposed.
But that was all. The next morning, when Jiang Heng set out to pick mushrooms, he glanced at his own fields and saw that the grass seeds had sprouted about two centimeters long. In the rice fields, the seedlings planted yesterday seemed to have taken root today. They looked much more energetic and had grown a little bigger than yesterday.
Not to mention the wheat that had already sprouted early. In just one night, most of the wheat seeds struggled to emerge from the soil with small green tips.
There is also the two acres of vegetable field that she has been planting for more than ten days.
There are not many varieties of vegetables in the vegetable garden. Among them, the half acre of lettuce looks half-grown now and can be picked and eaten. It is the best time to eat it. Each leaf is crisp and tender. Just looking at it, you can imagine the crisp, tender and sweet taste in your mouth.
Jiang Heng was so greedy that she decided to pick a lettuce and eat grilled fish at noon.
The fish is grilled directly and eaten without soup.
After looking at her family's fields again with a sense of unsatisfied interest, Jiang Heng went straight up the mountain.
On the way, she received a call from the brick, tile and cement boss, who reconfirmed the delivery time and said that everything she wanted would be delivered on time this afternoon.
Her breeding business will start soon!
——
In the morning, we picked and dried mushrooms as usual.
Jiang Heng planned to take a rest today and process an order for dried mushrooms from other places. So she made three trips back and forth, and the mushrooms she picked successfully filled the cement floor of the yard. She asked Chen Aying to come over and clean the mushrooms with a soft brush and help dry them.
When Jiang Heng came back for the third time, carrying two more sacks of mushrooms, Chen Aying was stunned: "Oh my God, are you going to restock?!"
Why are people so different from each other?
She also went to the foot of the mountain to look for mushrooms from time to time. Not to mention those expensive mushrooms, even the ordinary mushrooms she found were good.
When it came to Jiang Heng's turn, she never failed.
This morning, I brought back two bags of mushrooms each time, a total of thirty or forty kilograms. So far, there are more than one hundred kilograms of mushrooms in the yard!
Jiang Heng smiled and said, "Maybe I'm lucky. Every time I find a piece of land, there are a lot of mushrooms. These mushrooms grow too fast."
In fact, she can use spiritual energy to promote growth. One kilogram of mushrooms can be grown into two kilograms by her. Relatively speaking, she can naturally find more good mushrooms.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk..." Chen Aying was extremely envious, but her thoughts were quickly diverted by her next words. She nodded, "Mushrooms really do grow fast. A place that didn't have any mushrooms before might have a lot of them in just one night."
She just can't touch it!
Seeing that the yard was full of mushrooms, Jiang Heng stopped picking mushrooms.
She had already bought a lot of bamboo drying racks and winnowing baskets online yesterday, and paid extra to have them sent by expedited express. They should be delivered this afternoon, so she can dry more clothes tomorrow.
After disassembling a toothbrush, Jiang Heng took a small stool and helped with the cleaning.
As soon as she sat down, Caramel and Pudding came over and started to whine and act cute to her, rubbing against her so much that she couldn't do her work properly.
Chen Aying was amused: "These two dogs are really attached to you."
Jiang Heng smiled with her eyes curved: "I am their bread and butter~"
The smooth fur in my hands slid from their heads to their backs. After eating spiritual food for the past two days, their fur has become smoother and feels good, but... they feel a little thinner.
They were obviously quite full. They made fish balls yesterday. They killed a few grass carps that they had saved and asked Chen Aying to help them make six pounds of fish balls. They removed the bones of the remaining fish meat and chopped it into meat paste. When cooking, they steamed a large ball of it and mixed it with rice. From time to time, they would eat two pieces of vegetable leaves and nibble on half a tomato. Every time, the two dogs ate until their stomachs were full.
There was often some left over, and Jiang Heng would put it outside the yard for the big dogs passing by to eat.
The result is still a little thinner than when I first got home.
I don’t know if it’s because I didn’t drink milk and lost the milk fat, or maybe it’s because I didn’t gain weight from eating fish?
After rubbing them twice, Jiang Heng pushed them and coaxed them, "Okay, go play by yourselves!"
“Ouch!”
The two were still somewhat reluctant, but perhaps because they had absorbed more spiritual energy and become a little smarter, they understood what she meant. Seeing that Jiang Heng did not let go, they hummed and gave way, and the two sisters chased and played with each other.
Chen Aying exclaimed in amazement: "Oh, they are really obedient!"
"They are very smart. If I talk more, they will really understand a little." Jiang Heng said naturally.
These two dogs are really smart. They never touch the mushrooms she puts in the yard.
You have to know that these mushrooms are all spiritual and very attractive to them. If there were no formation, many of them would have been taken away by the birds flying in the sky.
Chen Aying felt a little regretful now: "I should have kept one earlier."
Jiang Heng said with a grin, "It's too late, they're all mine!"
"Hahaha." Chen Aying was amused. "I'm just saying, it's really a hassle to raise one."
After chatting about dogs for a while, she remembered that Jiang Heng wanted to build a chicken coop and asked, "Have you arranged a time with the master? Your uncle will be back the day after tomorrow and will probably need to rest for a few days. You can help him with the master then."
Jiang Heng nodded. "I've made the arrangements. We'll be here early tomorrow morning to start work. But Uncle finally got home to rest, so don't let him work." Then he said, "I was just about to tell you, Auntie. There's a master and two apprentices. Can you help take care of their lunch? I'll settle the food expenses once a week. I'll give you 1,000 yuan first, and you can buy whatever you want."
Chen Aying immediately said, "Okay, but the food expenses are too much, right?"
Living in the village, you have to buy meat, eggs and milk, and one hundred yuan a day is a lot.
Jiang Heng said, "It's okay. Three meals a day, three people who do manual labor, their appetites must be quite large. And there might be more than three people at that time. You should try to make more so that they don't go hungry. Don't keep any leftovers, just give them to the cats and dogs in the village."
Chen Aying felt distressed just by hearing this, but she thought that since she had paid for a master, she should treat him well so that he would work more attentively. So she nodded and said, "I understand. Then I will buy more meat and eat vegetables from our own fields."
Jiang Heng: "Look at you, auntie. Anyway, make sure you use this thousand coins. If it's not enough, tell me."
By the way, they talked about salary. With the experience of yesterday, this time it was much easier. Chen Aying accepted it except for hesitating for a moment that 150 yuan a day was too much.
The main reason is that Jiang Guoxia, Jiang Changhai and others will come to help. By then, there will be more than three people eating. Cooking is not easy when there are so many people.
The matter was settled, and by eleven o'clock, the mushrooms had been processed. Jiang Heng wanted to keep her for dinner, but Chen Aying had leftovers from yesterday and insisted on going back to eat. Jiang Heng had no choice but to eat by herself. She found the largest and last grass carp and finished it in no time.
The caramel pudding takes care of the internal organs, and the remaining fish meat is deboned and cut into slices. This method of cutting is just right to remove the fish bones in advance. Put it in a pan with some oil and fry it until cooked. Sprinkle it with some chili powder, wrap it with crispy lettuce leaves, and put it in your mouth in one bite.
That taste is amazing!
First, there is the "crunch" sound of the cold, crisp lettuce leaves being bitten, followed by the hot, spicy and tender fish meat. While chewing, even with such a strong taste, the sweetness of the fish meat itself and the crisp sweetness of the lettuce can still be clearly tasted by the tip of the tongue.
The lettuce was just the right amount to relieve the greasiness, so Jiang Heng didn’t eat any rice and just ate a whole plate of it.
He didn't stop at just one lettuce, so he went to the vegetable garden to pick two more.
When Jiang Guoxia came to check on her vegetable patch, he saw her picking such tender vegetables, as if she was a prodigal son: "You just picked them like that?!"
Jiang Heng enthusiastically promoted it: "Lettuce is delicious at this time of year, would you like some, uncle?"
Jiang Guoxia waved his hands repeatedly: "No, no, eat less. Didn't you say you were going to sell it for money? Don't eat it all."
He just didn't feel at ease with the land that Jiang Heng was farming.
This child planted rice without applying chemical fertilizers in advance, and he probably didn't apply fertilizers to other fields either. No matter what they said, the child wouldn't listen. He said they were going to make some pure natural green food, and he didn't understand, so he just wanted to come and see if the seedlings could adapt.
Now it seems that the seedlings are all growing vigorously, thanks to the rain last night.
It seems that they are already taking root.
Could it be that Jiang Heng really had some luck with farming? She'd promised rain, and it had indeed come, as if it had been specially watering her fields.
Jiang Heng gave up with regret and only picked two for himself. In the middle, he also shared some with his two dogs. The vegetables were full of spirit, without any pesticides or anything like that. They were really natural and most importantly, they grew well without any insect holes. He also liked the caramel pudding and could occasionally get some fish meat. He was so happy that he ate so much that he was full. Before Jiang Heng finished eating, they had already fallen asleep while cuddling each other.
Jiang Heng was envious of this.
Puppies are just great. They eat, sleep, play, and then eat!
——
After being exposed to the sun for a whole morning, the mushrooms had shrunk a lot by the afternoon.
The mushrooms that were originally crowded together now have some free time, but they still need to be turned over from time to time.
Jiang Heng simply practiced martial arts in the living room while waiting for the delivery.
Turning them over is not difficult. She just sends a burst of spiritual power and all the mushrooms can be turned over.
It's just a bit trivial.
Fortunately, the sun has been shining brightly these days. At this rate, this batch can be dried in three days at most.
However, if you need to dry mushrooms frequently in the future, you will have to outsource this task.
At around two o'clock in the afternoon, bricks, tiles, cement and other things were delivered.
Jiang Guoxia and the others heard the noise and ran over to help sign for it.
They were all acquaintances, and after both parties checked and found no problems, Jiang Heng paid the money. The total cost of all materials was less than 10,000 yuan.
After receiving the goods, Jiang Heng went to the town to pick up the express delivery. There were toys and food bowls for the puppy, as well as some things she bought. The tricycle was full, and she couldn't even take them all back on her electric scooter.
When she came back, she passed by the village committee and went in to talk to the village director, or village chief, about contracting the pond. The price was cheaper than she had imagined, only 500 yuan a year, and the surrounding land could also be included, so she could build a small house there.
Of course, Jiang Heng was surprised at first.
Still want to build a house?
The village chief was even more surprised: "Aren't you afraid that when the fish grow up, others will sneak in and cast a few nets in the middle of the night?"
Jiang Heng: ...
She subconsciously thought that with the formation, others should not be able to do it. She was used to using formations for defense in the world of immortal cultivation.
But he soon thought that he should not be too presumptuous, otherwise people would notice the difference and make a big fuss, which would be difficult to deal with. It would be more convenient to ask someone to watch over him.
I'll ask my uncles and aunts when the time comes. By then, Caramel Pudding should be grown up and can take turns to keep watch.
The contract could not be signed immediately because the pond was collectively owned, and the consent of most villagers had to be sought, and the government had to be reported as well. She just had to draft the charter first, and she didn't have to worry about the rest. The village chief would take care of everything, and she would just have to wait until the time came to sign the contract and pay the money.
Early the next morning, the master we had arranged to meet arrived.
As Jiang Heng expected, Jiang Guoxia, Jiang Changhai, Chen Li, and two neighbors who had a good relationship with her parents and happened to be at home with some free time all came to help. They all specifically said that they didn't want any money, and that it was just a coincidence that their family was building a house and they came to help, so they just wanted to treat them to a meal.
Everyone was so enthusiastic that Jiang Heng couldn't refuse, so she turned around and added another 500 yuan to buy vegetables for her aunt.
This time, Chen Aying didn't mention that the money was too much. She smiled brightly with a hint of pride: "Everyone knows that you have made a living. They are all happy for your parents. You should treat them to something good."
Jiang Heng's heart softened and she said, "Then I'll trouble you, auntie."
"That's no trouble at all," Chen Aying said cheerfully, glancing at the people who had already started measuring the land. "I'll go buy some groceries first. What do you want to eat?"
Jiang Heng shook her head. "I don't have anything I want to eat. Oh, and how about buying a chicken and making some soup? I'll add some mushrooms and it'll definitely be delicious."
Chen Aying took note of it and went to ask everyone. Most of the workers were casual about food and had no requests. So she set off in a hurry on her electric scooter.
Jiang Heng went over and watched the master start laying the foundation and lent a hand.
On the first day, she still had to look after it to make sure the plans were what she wanted.
