Since Jiang Nian and his family were in a hurry to get home, we'll keep it brief.
Jiang Yue explained her plan: she wanted to mobilize the entire Wujia Village to cultivate medicinal herbs and make Wujia Village the most famous medicinal herb village in Tianyao within three years!
The batch of medicinal herbs in the backyard was her first harvest, and it was also proof to the village that what she said was true!
Her husband's family has already used half of their land to grow medicinal herbs. In another three months, the medicinal herbs from the old house will be harvested and sold!
As for sales channels, although it is currently a small Huichuntang, she believes that through word of mouth and through channels, the medicinal materials from Wujia Village will definitely be sold to other cities in Tianyao!
"......."
Jiang Nian was dumbfounded. Was the woman in front of him, who was talking so eloquently, really his sister?
Upon hearing this, Madam Liu felt immense admiration for her sister-in-law. If her sister-in-law could actually achieve what she had said, it would be truly miraculous!
She turned to look at her husband, who was staring blankly at her, so she had no choice but to reach out and close his chin.
Looking at my own children, they were all gazing at their sister-in-law with starry eyes.
At that moment, a bold idea popped into her mind, but she didn't know whether she should say it or not.
Jiang Yue noticed her sister-in-law's hesitation, so she asked her directly:
"Sister-in-law, do you believe me?"
Without hesitation, Liu nodded. If she hadn't come, she certainly wouldn't have believed it, but she had witnessed the changes in her sister-in-law, the changes in her sister-in-law's family, the changes in the children, and her sister-in-law's candid revelation of how the family made money!
How could she not believe it?
"I trust you, sister. You're so amazing, can you show your sister-in-law some directions?"
Liu wanted to make money to save up for Lei Zi and his siblings to build houses, get married, and receive a generous dowry!
"Ahem, don't make things difficult for the girl."
If Jiang Nian hadn't started a family, he would have been the elder brother first. But now that he's married, he's the husband first, then the father, and only lastly the elder brother. There are just too many things to consider.
"Brother, you and your wife are family, why are you being so polite with me? You brought a cartload of grain, enough for our family to eat for half a year."
Sisters, I'll return the favor and show you the right path.
"My parents' home is also my home. If you're doing well, then if my family members turn out badly, I can go back to my parents' home and freeload without feeling guilty."
Jiang Yue finished peeling the eggs. Each child received one egg, and she ate the extra one without hesitation.
The Qingshan brothers all knew their mother's temperament, so they didn't interrupt and silently cleared the dishes and wiped the table.
The Jiang brothers wanted to help but couldn't, so they simply stared intently at their aunt, hoping she would explain the way.
That's simple. Jiang Yue pointed out two clear paths: one is to follow her and plant medicinal herbs, and the other is to revitalize the pond, raise fish and shrimp, and plant lotus roots. Unfortunately, it's too late now, so we can only start raising them next year when it's more appropriate. But we can raise ducks now!
In my memory, there weren't many things around Jiangjia Village, but there were lots of ducks!
The reason why no one gets rich overnight is because most people's duck meat has a strong gamey smell!
This has resulted in very few people wanting to buy duck meat to eat!
But Jiangjia Village is quite strange; the ducks have an exceptionally high survival rate. And although they don't taste good, they are still a meat dish, so every household raises them!
Jiang Yue, a modern person, watched a lot of food blogger videos before she transmigrated!
Roast duck, fruitwood charcoal, sauces—these are all readily available!
At worst, she could just use her points from the system space to redeem a Peking duck recipe book!
Jiang Nian and his wife were muttering to themselves that the people in their Jiangjia Village were not united, and they didn't have a good impression of the villagers, so they didn't want to encourage the whole village to grow medicinal herbs.
Let's revitalize the pond! Listen to the girl, let's raise ducks first, and then raise fish and shrimp and plant lotus roots next year!
"Auntie, duck meat doesn't taste good, and not many people buy it. Do you have any other way to sell ducks?"
Jiang Nian was quick-witted and, after a moment's thought, he realized the issue of sales channels.
"It doesn't taste good because many people don't know how to cook it. When your ducks are fully grown, come find your aunt, and I'll teach you how to cook ducks to sell."
Jiang Yue said confidently, but she was also determined that after seeing her brother and sister-in-law off, she would find a way to build an oven in the kitchen and try it out herself first!
"Oh, and don't forget to plant scallions and cucumbers! Those two things will be very useful later!"
Jiang Lei listened carefully to everything his aunt said, especially when she said the duck meat was at its most tender.
So, duck meat is at its fattest between one and a half and two months of age!
Jiang Yu frowned, racking her brains but unable to come up with a solution.
She could only tug at her aunt's sleeve and ask:
"Auntie, ducks eat a lot, what should we do if we don't have enough food at home?"
Jiang Yue patted her little niece's head and answered with a smile:
"Who says ducks need to eat grain? You can dig up earthworms, river clams, wild vegetables, and rice bran to feed them."
Heaven knows, this little traditional Chinese medicine practitioner, besides researching medicinal herbs, also enjoys watching videos on a certain website!
Just a friendly reminder: master your main job, and have a side hustle too!
If someone like her were to time-travel, they wouldn't be completely helpless.
"I'll remember, thank you, Auntie!"
Jiang Yu, that clever little devil, doesn't talk much, but when she does, she always gets to the point.
After discussing the matter to the last detail, everyone took their leave.
Jiang Yue added a watermelon and several bamboo tubes of cooled boiled water to the dry rations her mother-in-law had brought, and placed them on the oxcart, instructing her:
“This is dry food that my mother-in-law brought. You can eat it on the way. Next time you come, don’t bring big bags of food. We have everything we need.”
"Okay, little sister. Seeing that you're doing well makes your brother and me feel much more at ease. Let's keep in touch and come home to visit when you have time."
Liu was also reluctant to part, speaking to her sister-in-law with lingering affection.
The children, being related by blood and of similar age, quickly became acquainted.
"I'm getting married at the end of September, cousin, remember to come to the wedding banquet!"
"You little rascal, you got married before me! Well done! I'll definitely drink you under the table when the wedding comes!"
Aoyama extended his fist and met his cousin's fist, which was considered an agreement.
"Second cousin, it's a deal. Next time you come, bring your precious stone to play. Let's see who's quicker."
"Okay, don't forget the slingshot you promised me."
"Cousin, here's half of my candy for you. Next time you come to my brother's wedding, I'll save the other half for you."
"Thanks, cousin! I'll bring you something delicious next time!"
The younger generation was all reluctant to part, but Qingyun stood alone in a corner.
He hesitated, repeatedly trying to speak but stopping himself, and then pulling back the steps he had taken.
"Third cousin, next time your cousin will bring you a wood carving."
"Cousin, next time your cousin will give you a rabbit too."
"What nonsense! My third cousin is a scholar, not a little girl. Why would he send a rabbit?"
"Brother, I was giving the rabbit to my cousin, not to you, so why are you yelling?"
"Ugh, my fist just wants to punch you!"
"Cousin, help me!"
...
Qingyun smiled, reached out to protect his second cousin, and begged his eldest cousin for forgiveness.
