Plant peppers to the whole village

Su Hang opened the door and saw Aqiao watering the jasmine flowers and Niu Niu holding a small ladle and watering the peppers.

As soon as she saw her father coming back, Niu Niu immediately released the ladle and stumbled towards Su Hang.

Su Hang was frightened, and he immediately ran over and hugged his daughter.

Aqiao turned around and said, "Mr. sir, you are back. Look, the jasmine flowers are blooming. You can pick them in the afternoon and dry them with dry tea. These days are good. In a few days, you will be able to drink jasmine flowers."

It’s tea.”

"Well, Aqiao is so smart." Su Hang kissed her.

Ah Qiao's eyes curled up after hearing this, and she stepped forward and hugged Su Hang's waist. Recently, she fell in love with growing flowers, and then brewed tea for Su Hang to drink.

Because the scented tea on the market is too expensive, costing dozens of pennies per kilogram, and I don’t know how they make it.

So she started to grow her own crops. Anyway, she was idle at home. She couldn't make any money, so she thought of saving a little bit for her husband.

Su Hang also knew what she was thinking, so he let her go, and even praised her from time to time.

"Ms. sir, I plan to make tofu, do you know? When I was in the Feng family, my three younger brothers didn't want to do the tofu making work at home, so I did it all. I want to make tofu and sell it in your shop.

Make some money for you."

"No, you are pregnant now. It is too dangerous to do those jobs anymore. Ah Qiao, I know you want to help me, but you are safe now, and then the mother and baby are safe during the birth. This is the greatest help to me.

." Su Hang took her hand.

Feng Aqiao touched her slightly bulging belly and felt that what her husband said made sense. The most important thing right now was her and her husband's child.

"Madam, you should listen to the officials. See how much they love you!" the nanny advised.

Feng Aqiao raised the corner of her mouth. It would be difficult to find another person as good as her husband in Daqing.

After lunch, Su Hang will drive his carriage back to the countryside to find something to do with Mr. Su Qi.

When passing the county government office, Suhang prepared wine, bamboo leaf wine and pepper for the concierge.

"Uncle, I heard that the county magistrate was ill. I was very worried. I specially prepared some small gifts for the county magistrate. I hope the county magistrate will recover soon." Su Hang said respectfully.

The concierge took it and thanked him.

Magistrate Qiu was fishing by the lake, and the concierge brought gifts from Suhang.

Magistrate Qiu looked at the wine, bamboo leaf wine and a package of crooked red things, which made Magistrate Qiu very curious.

I saw a piece of paper that said "Pepper, you can put it in small amounts in meals." Magistrate Qiu looked at it carefully and murmured: "Pepper, what is chili?"

When County Magistrate Qiu asked his wife to put a small amount of the chili pepper into the food, when he took the first bite, Magistrate Qiu suddenly paused, then laughed, and his wife looked at him with an incomprehensible expression.

"It's okay, I'm okay, madam." Magistrate Qiu took another sip of wine and thought happily, this Suhang is really a wonderful person!

Su Hang is currently at Su Qiye's home, planning to start with Su Qiye and gradually promote the cultivation of peppers in Sujia Village.

"Master Qi, I respect you and thank you for recommending the masons to me. I think the house they built is quite good." Su Hang poured a glass of wine for Master Su Qi.

Su Qiye happily took it and touched it with Su Hang.

The masons recommended by Su Qiye were all related to Su Qiye, and Su Hang knew this very well.

Su Hang didn't think there was anything wrong with this. After all, hiring craftsmen from the grass market to build a house would be much more expensive than what Su Qiye recommended, and the masons recommended by Su Qiye also knew Su Qiye well.

The point is to give Su Qiye a favor.

"Seventh Master, Third Uncle, and Uncle, you all have a try at the spicy and sour fish I made. It's delicious." Su Hang poured wine for them.

Everyone looked at the fish and it was covered with red things, so no one dared to eat it, because no one had seen what those red things were, and who would dare to eat something that they had never seen before?

Eat with your mouth.

Su Hang saw everyone's hesitation and couldn't help but smile. He stretched out his chopsticks to pull away all the red pepper on the fish and inserted it into the belly of the fish. He easily caught a piece of fish meat. The fish meat was plump and the spicy taste was hidden.

The smell of fish is overcome, and the taste is smooth and especially delicious.

Everyone at the dinner table looked at Su Hang in surprise and started talking about it.

"Hang'er, can you tell Master Qi that the meat soaked in this red thing can be eaten?"

Su Hang finished chewing and said with a smile: "Can you eat it? Don't you all watch me eat it? I want to know what it tastes like. You still need to taste it yourself."

Li Zheng first took out his chopsticks and gently moved towards the fish, picked up a piece of meat and put it into his mouth to chew.

The rest of the people looked at Li Zheng curiously. Li Zheng squinted his eyes and looked like an old god. He suddenly said "Wow": "Oh my god, this is really delicious. It's because of the addition of these red colors."

Something?"

After listening to what Li Zheng said, the others picked up their chopsticks and went towards the fish.

Seeing how everyone was devouring the food, Suhang knew that this first wave of publicity activities had been successfully completed.

So Suhang took out a glass bottle of chili powder and put it on the table.

"To be honest, this thing is called chili pepper. I discovered it accidentally when I was doing business with my boss. I discovered that this thing is actually edible and will not kill anyone. It can be ground into powder or eaten whole.

Cook it with the food and let its spiciness penetrate into the food, making our original bland taste more flavorful." Suhang introduced to everyone in detail.

Everyone picked up the bottle of chili powder curiously, looked at it carefully, opened the bottle, smelled it, and passed it around in turns.

"So, I want to help you make some money. If you also come to plant these peppers, I believe you will definitely make money." Su Hang said.

As soon as Su Hang finished speaking, everyone looked at each other in shock, but no one said a word.

After all, they are too poor. They have made a living by farming all their lives. They still have to pay endless exorbitant taxes and miscellaneous taxes. They work hard every year but have little money left. So when they heard Suhang asked them to plant these peppers, they did not say anything.

But not saying anything means that they don't agree with it.

No matter how flavorful the pepper is, it makes the food delicious, but it cannot be eaten after all. It is a problem for the villagers to solve the problem of food and clothing. Where can they grow such "luxury" peppers? They thought at this time

The problem is how to have a full meal rather than a good meal.

A person's cognitive level is closely related to the environment in which he lives. Suhang can also understand the hesitation of these villagers at this moment. After all, they have been farming all their lives, and they only know how to work hard.

Understand the lives of people in the county.

When the villagers heard that Suhang asked them to plant chili peppers, their first reaction was that they did not need the rice to taste delicious and could not use the precious land to grow anything other than food. They never thought that they could use the chili peppers.

Go to the county to do business.

"Everyone is silent. In fact, I know that your family situation is not very good, so I will plant peppers for you to see first." Su Hang cleared his throat and said.

Hearing this, everyone nodded.

"But my family has too little land, so I can only grow a little. How about I rent your land to grow peppers? One acre per year is 800 cents, how about that?"

"Suhang, you are crazy. You bought so much land just to grow this thing called pepper you mentioned! No matter how rich you are, you can't waste it like this!" Uncle Suhang said.

"I'm not crazy, I just want to rent your land to grow peppers. I don't want to rent more for each family. Let's rent six acres of land for each family. How about that?"

Everyone looked at Li Zheng, who confirmed to Su Hang: "You really want to rent, it's still too late to regret it now."

"I don't regret it."
