Chapter 142 - 142: The Perfect Plan



Qiao Xiaomai owned this much land for the first time and was currently interested in being a small landowner.

She also had crops like chilli and corn in her space.

Chilli was just a vegetable, non-essential.

But corn was different; corn was a staple food.

Before sweet potatoes were introduced to Daqi, the common people there led a difficult life. Despite the emperor’s light taxes, the land was barren, there was no fertilizer, and all labor had to be done manually leading to low efficiency.

Furthermore, there were continuous disasters, with floods in the east and locust plagues in the west.

Anyway, before the introduction of sweet potatoes, ordinary people were struggling to sustain basic living.

These days she had been indulging a bit, Qiao Changshun would often reminisce about the harsh old days, like when they would eat wild vegetables for most of the year, steam buns made from ground tree bark mixed with flour, and so on. It was a hard time.

However, after the introduction of sweet potatoes, the situation improved greatly, at the very least, no one was starving anymore.

But, sweet potatoes could not replace wheat or rice after all, eating too much of it was not good either.

Therefore, the importance of corn to Daqi goes without saying.

Like sweet potatoes, corn was easy to grow, had high yield, and was delicious too. If it could be promoted on a large scale, the quality of life of the people of Daqi could be improved even further.

Qiao Xiaomai had already planned her development for the next few years: plant chillies to earn money.

Plant corn and dedicate it to Emperor Yongan.

As the emperor was the ultimate authority in ancient times, currying favor with the emperor was very necessary.

Under the protection of the emperor, she could comfortably farm, earn money and enjoy food.

This plan was perfect.

As for getting married, when the time comes, she’ll be the head of the Qiao family. Whether she finds a man or not, who could force her?

Heh.

After revising her plans once more, Qiao Xiaomai washed a batch of soybeans, ready to grow bean sprouts.

When she finished this, her day was almost over.

They had something light for dinner, made Xiaomi porridge, and after the family of three had finished their meal and casually chatted for a bit, they retired to their respective rooms to sleep.

The next day, after breakfast, Qiao Changshun saddled the donkey cart and took Qiao Xiaomai and Qiao Dami with him. The family of three headed towards town.

Today was the day to collect the chicken feet, and Qiao Changshun was really thinking of buying a cow or a sheep.

On reaching the town, they first went to Zuixian Building.

As soon as the shopkeeper of Zuixian Building saw them, he happily greeted them, “Ah, you’ve finally come!”

The chicken feet sold very well!

The chicken feet that Qiao Xiaomai had sent over were sold out the same day.

He alone had gnawed on more than a dozen!

“Miss Qiao, I’ve prepared more than five hundred for you over these few days. Take them back quickly. Once you’ve prepared them, deliver them tomorrow. Many customers have been asking about them.”

Qiao Xiaomai was not surprised at all.

There were definitely many people like her who loved to gnaw on chicken feet and duck necks. Just looking at the number of duck neck shops in later generations would tell you.

After loading the chicken feet onto the donkey cart, Shopkeeper Zhou looked at her hesitantly, “Miss Qiao, are you really not going to sell this recipe? Zuixian Building is willing to offer a high price and will definitely not let you suffer a loss.”

This kind of delicious food should be eaten every day and should be available at every branch of Zuixian Building.

Appearing only in Bailu Town, and only able to eat it once every few days, it was too distressing.

Upon hearing this, Qiao Xiaomai smiled and shook her head.

She sold the recipes of cold jelly noodles, tofu and bean curd for a loss, and unless necessary, she wasn’t going to do this kind of shooting oneself in the foot again.

“Shopkeeper, not just the chicken feet, but also duck necks, duck wings, duck intestines, chicken wings, you can keep all of these. 1 can prepare them all.” She said before leaving.

Relying solely on chicken feet was a bit monotonous, and she wanted to eat these other things as well.

Farm her land and make some sideline deals like this one. Perfect..
