The general's mansion is down and out?It doesn't matter, madam will make a move

Chapter 178 New Business Opportunities, New Opportunities

Zhan Zhan noticed that there was light in Su Jian's eyes, but it was just an ordinary stone. By the way, Su Jian said that it was not a stone: "If you like it, I will help you find some more."

"Okay." Su Jian agreed decisively. Seeing that Zhan Zhan really started to look for mussels by the small river, she turned to the village and said, "Uncle Li Zheng, to be honest, I came here to rent the land. In order to breed crayfish, it is a surprise to find this again now, and it would be even better if I could raise a little more.”

"Don't dare to be called Madam, but raise stones?" The villager was just wondering what a crayfish was, when he suddenly heard that Su Jianjian raises stones.

"This is not a stone, but a clam." Su Jian explained with a smile, "It's edible."

The villager was looking at Su Jian in amazement, can stones be eaten?He had never heard of it.

Su Jian smiled, and was not going to explain directly, isn't Xingzhi Village adhering to travel thousands of miles to learn knowledge?Then she will do it and let them see for themselves. In fact, to learn and master something, you don't have to travel thousands of miles. Many things around you can also be learned.

But she couldn't say that what they were doing was wrong.As Su Qin said before, she must respect their choices.And whether her behavior can affect them is just a test.As for whether the temptation was successful or not, it was out of her control.

"Brother, do you have a dagger on you?"

Su Qin took out a dagger from his boots. In fact, he had never used a dagger, but Su Jian always asked him to take it with him. For no other reason, he had a little weapon with him when he went out, and his safety would be more important. Assure.

Su Jian took the dagger in Su Qin's hand, and carefully slashed along the back of the mussel with the dagger from the middle.The clam, which was originally tightly stitched, opened its mouth, and the white meat was instantly displayed in front of everyone.

The village is surprised, the stone is white when opened?Just lightly flicking with a knife can break open the stone, this general's wife is as mighty and brave as a general!For a while, he respected Su Jian even more.

"Brother, can you help light the fire?"

Su Qin paused, he should be able to do things like lighting a fire.

Seeing that Su Qin was busy, Su Jian looked at Zhan Zhan. Seeing that Zhan Zhan had found several more mussels, she dealt with them one by one.

"Brother, is the fire ready?"

Su Qin coughed a few times, a little embarrassed, can he say that he hasn't found firewood yet?
Zhan Zhan was surprised by Su Jian's proficiency in handling the mussels, heard Su Jian's inquiry, and saw Su Qin embarrassed.After he got up to find hay and firewood, he built a simple stove with stones by the river nearby and lit a fire inside.

If there is a pot, the mussels will naturally be delicious, but the conditions outside are poor. If they want to let the villagers taste the mussel meat as soon as possible, they can only roast it, but... they can't stand it live on fire...

Su Jian looked around and finally decided to roast the mussel meat on the dagger.

The jumping sparks reflected the clam meat on the dagger better. There was a crackling sound, and the clam meat began to curl up. Su Jian felt that it was almost ready, so she took out the seasoning packet from her small pocket.

The so-called seasoning package is actually dried chili noodles mixed with some salt and pepper noodles. Because Su Jian has a strong taste, he will always bring some with him in case he doesn't feel good when eating out.

Unexpectedly, it came in handy today.

"I still remember that in a book I read before, it was written that drinking a bowl of mussel soup in spring will prevent prickly heat and sores. But in fact, mussels are the most delicious in April and May, and mussel meat is rich in many nutrients , Eating some in moderation is very good for the body. However, those with weak spleen and stomach should eat as little as possible." There are also mussel shells, which are said to have medicinal value, but what is the specific use, maybe you can take some back for Qimo to study .

Su Jian took the lead in handing the grilled mussel meat to the villager Zheng: "Uncle Lizheng eats the first one, I didn't put any seasoning for you." Elderly people, it's better not to eat too spicy: "Taste it first. Its original taste, if you feel uncomfortable, you can try the second one, I only put a little seasoning."

The village is afraid to eat, but only looks at Zhan Zhan.

Su Jian noticed the villager's gaze, and then handed the mussel meat on the dagger to Zhan Zhan: "The general also tasted one."

Zhan Zhan met Su Jian's eyes and felt Su Jian's easy-going at the moment, he picked up a piece of mussel meat.

Su Jian looked at Zhan Zhan more, took the mussel meat and ate it quickly, kept it in his hand, wouldn't he be afraid of being scalded?Su Jian didn't think too much, and handed the mussel meat back to the front of the villager.

Seeing that Su Jian didn't look at him anymore, Zhan Zhan put the mussel meat into his mouth.If he doesn't eat it, the villagers probably won't eat it either.

Sure enough, the village saw that Zhan Zhan ate mussel meat, and he ate it too.

Zhan Zhan chewed the mussel meat, which was different from the crayfish meat he ate before. It was softer and more chewy, but the taste was the same.

The villagers were eating clam meat, and thought it was stones, but it turned out to be meat!His eyes narrowed. He hasn't eaten meat for a long time. This meat is so fresh and delicious!He must tell the villagers about the edible mussel meat and let them have a taste of the meat.

"There is a small river here, and it is very good to store water to raise crayfish. If the village is willing, it can be sold or rented. The price is negotiable."

The village is nodding: "To be honest, because considering the safety of the villagers in the village, it is not acceptable for others to sell or rent the land. But you are the general's wife, so we can rest assured. How much land does the lady want? We can rent it all to you."

Su Jian nodded, as long as the village is agreeing.It seems that bringing Zhan Zhan today is a mistake.At that time, Su Jian completely forgot that it was Zhan Zhan who brought her here.

"I like this mussel very much. If you are willing, I would like to collect mussels. The big ones cost five renminbi, the normal ones cost three renminbi, and the small ones cost a penny each."

The villager was hearing his eyes, and his cloudy eyes suddenly became bright: "Ma'am, aren't you joking?"

"I'm not kidding."

"Okay, okay." The villager Zheng said several good things in a row.

"When picking up mussels, you must pay attention to safety."

"Ehhh."

"Since I want to raise crayfish here, I naturally want to hire a few helpers. If it is feasible, the village is looking at making arrangements together."

"It's doable, it's doable." The villager was nodding his head like garlic.

"Okay, then I'll arrange someone to come over tomorrow to discuss specific matters with the village chief, and it's time to go back today." Su Jian said, preparing to go home while the village was nodding and saluting, but as she walked, she seemed to have forgotten What.

It wasn't until Su Jian came to the entrance of the village and looked at the big horse in front of her and the carriage not far away that she remembered what she had forgotten.

It's Su Qin.

"Where's my elder brother?"

Zhan Zhan found out what Su Jian was looking for when he walked around Su Jian: "Isn't he behind us?"

"..." There was no one behind her, Su Jian cursed in her heart.It seems that both she and Zhan Zhan have forgotten Su Qin at the same time.
