Chapter 357 A strong nation is built on strong youth
Ji Hongguang saw the person standing behind her and wanted to speak up to remind her, but he felt it was inappropriate. When he was considering what to do, he heard Wen Zhenyi speak.
"Uncle is interested in the account book."
"I'm just interested in the way you keep your accounts."
Wen Zhenyi handed him the account book in his hand: "Would you like to see it?"
Feng Hanhe did not refuse. He took the account book and started to look through it. There was a look of surprise on his face as he looked through it, but when he saw her counting the store income, he fell into deep thought again.
Wen Zhenyi didn't care, but he saw that Ji Hongguang was a little nervous. After all, it was not a good thing for them to show the account book to an outsider.
"Boss."
She waved her hand to indicate that he was fine, and then walked towards the kitchen, asking Zhu Tao to prepare small portions of each item and not too much.
Zhu Tao didn't ask any more questions and prepared food for them as she said.
Feng Hanhe looked at the food on the table and asked, "Are these all made in your shop?"
"This is just a portion. I don't know if it suits your taste, so I gave you some of each."
Feng Hanhe picked up the chopsticks.
A Yu reminded, "Master."
Feng Hanhe waved his hand, telling him not to talk any more, and started eating the food on the table: "It tastes really good."
The customer across from me smiled and said, "Everything in Miss Wen's shop is delicious. We come here every day and never get enough."
Feng Hanhe started chatting with the guests at the table: "Won't you get tired of eating it every day?"
"Don't all the stores sell the same things? If they change every fifteen days, how can you get tired of them? You'll just feel that fifteen days is too short."
"Isn't that all?" Feng Hanhe looked at the food in front of him.
"Well, there are many varieties. Occasionally you can even eat bread and cakes, but you have to be lucky, otherwise you won't be able to buy them."
Feng Hanhe has eaten everything, but this dining experience has given him a new understanding of cooking.
Wen Zhenyi let him eat by himself while she went to take care of some chores in the store. By the time she was done, Feng Hanhe had already finished eating: "Uncle, are you full?"
Feng Hanhe looked at the empty plate. This might be the most he had ever eaten: "I'm full."
"I'll take you around to help you digest your food."
"Okay." Feng Hanhe really wanted to take a walk around. You know, County Magistrate Lei had reported a lot of changes in Wenxia Town recently.
He also saw the shop opened by the Cheng family in the county town, and even experienced the convenience of food delivery and mailing services.
Wen Zhenyi took him to the market. As soon as he entered the market, he could feel the coolness, as if it was isolated from the heat outside.
Many vendors greeted Wen Zhenyi enthusiastically: "Miss Wen, come and buy some vegetables!"
Wen Zhenyi replied one by one with a smile.
Feng Hanhe saw some things here that he had never seen before, such as the yellow tofu skin on the tofu stall, the lobsters waving their big claws in the seafood area, and so on.
After he asked A Yu to inquire, the result shocked him even more. It turned out that all these things were made by the little girl in front of him.
Yunhai caught a few large lobsters today and has sold almost all of them, with only one left. "Miss Wen."
"Village Chief Yunhai, are you here to sell things today?"
"We were lucky today and caught a few big ones." He pointed to the lobsters in the basin waving their big claws.
Wen Zhenyi grabbed the lobster and examined it: "This head is quite big."
"It's the biggest one today."
"I want this. How much is it?"
"I can still charge you money, you can take it back and eat it."
"That won't do. Let's keep things separate."
Wen Zhenyi took out some money and stuffed it into his hand, then picked up the lobster and bought some other seafood.
Feng Hanhe looked at Ah Xiang, who was carrying a lot of things in his hands. "Are you eating this today?"
"You should eat less of these, and none of them taste good."
"That's the truth." Feng Hanhe did not refute.
After Feng Hanhe's tour, he found that the life of the people here was the best he had ever experienced. He asked A Yu to send someone to inquire about the situation, and he followed Wen Zhenyi back to the village.
When he arrived at the village entrance, he saw people queuing up to buy braised meat: "Is this also your shop?"
"I built all the houses in this area. Now this is the only shop that's open every day. The dim sum shop is short of ingredients, so its opening hours are irregular."
Feng Hanhe pointed to another group of low houses and asked, "What's that place?"
"That's the pig farm I built. Do you want to go and see it?"
"good."
Wen Zhenyi asked Axiang to send all the ingredients back home, and asked her to take Qin Yue to prepare the ingredients for cooking later.
Axiang nodded, picked up his things and left.
Feng Hanhe also asked A Yu to leave with him and parked the carriage in the Wen family's stable.
Wen Zhenyi took him to the pig farm and happened to meet the children from the private school taking classes there.
Shi Hui was telling them how to take care of the piglets and what they needed to pay attention to.
Feng Hanhe looked at everything in front of him in surprise: "What are you doing?"
"These are children who go to school."
"Why do you teach them these things if you don't let them study hard and learn to read and write?" Feng Hanhe was a little annoyed.
Wen Zhenyi turned to look at him: "Uncle, do you want them all to pass the imperial examinations?"
"Isn't the purpose of studying to gain academic honors and contribute to the country?"
“How many people can pass the imperial examination?”
Feng Hanhe opened his mouth to retort, but found that he didn't know how to answer.
Wen Zhenyi continued, "I never thought of letting the children in the private school pass the imperial examinations."
Feng Hanhe frowned: "Then what is your private school used for?"
"I hope they can read and write, distinguish right from wrong, pass on the wisdom of their predecessors, and create more possibilities based on their achievements."
Wen Zhenyi looked at the children who were listening attentively to the class and said, "I hope they can acquire a skill and use it to support themselves and their families in the future. A country is not just about scholars and military commanders; it also has 365 professions."
Feng Hanhe's heart was shocked. Looking at the girl in front of him who was emitting dazzling light, he suddenly realized that he had lived for most of his life, but he was not as far-sighted and insightful as her.
"So the private school does more than just teach them how to read?"
Wen Zhenyi smiled and nodded: "Yes, there are all kinds of interesting things in the private school. If you are interested, you can go and have a look."
Feng Hanhe is now very curious about what the private school she was talking about is like.
"Uncle, children are the future of this country. A strong youth means a strong country."
Feng Hanhe was once again shocked by these words and was speechless. He carefully savored the meaning of these words.
Wen Zhenyi didn't say anything else, but took him to see the little pig in flowery clothes, and told him about the pig disease that occurred in An County that year.
The piglets that are the result of crossbreeding between wild boars and domestic pigs can improve their disease resistance.
