A Lucky Wife Born Again From a Farm Family

Chapter 2299 Ending

 Du Neijian frowned: "Tapioca scrapes the intestines and stomach?"

Gu Jinli nodded: "Well, although cassava is good, it requires more oil than rice and wheat to feed people."

Qi Yi said: "This is nothing. Soybean oil has been popularized in Dachu. Ordinary families in the south can afford it. The northwest is relatively poor, but one meal of soybean oil in two days is still enough."

 As I said before, cassava must be promoted throughout Dachu!

He also assured Gu Jinli and his wife: "Don't worry, I will send a trustworthy person to deliver the recipe for cassava flour directly to the palace and it will not be leaked out."

Gu Jinli would wait until Qi Yi arrived before teaching Du Neijian how to make cassava flour. He was afraid that the craftsmanship of cassava flour would leak out and Xu You's people would take advantage. After hearing this, she felt relieved: "We can trust Uncle Qi." .”

He added: "This is a place where insects are raised. No one will come. Uncle Qi and Du Neijian can safely try making cassava flour here."

After Du Nei listened, his body shook unsatisfactorily.

Seeing this, Gu Jinli grinned and said, "Don't be afraid, Mr. Du Neijian. The poisonous insects are kept in pottery jars. They are well sealed and will not escape."

 Hehe, a stiff smile appeared on Du Neijian's face: "Mrs. Qin said that, I feel relieved."

“Hey, you guys do it slowly, we’re leaving first.” Gu Jinli pulled Qin Sanlang away.

Qi Yi shook his head and said to Supervisor Du Nei: "This girl has been lively and tempered since she was a child. Don't be surprised by Supervisor Du Nei."

 Du Neijian: "Master Qi's words are serious, Mrs. Qin's temper is very good."

Although he may be fierce, he understands right and wrong. He is willing to follow his husband to the northwest to endure hardships, and he is also willing to hand over the craftsmanship of cassava flour. He is a rare person.

However: "Mrs. Qin's temper is very different from Gu Tanhua's."

Gu Tanhua Wen Ya was also able to bear it ... His Majesty was moody, and he was in front of his eyes. He was equivalent to punishment.

If Gu Jinli were here, he would definitely snicker. It seems that you don’t understand my brother. He is just a white man and a black man.

 In the next four days, Qi Yi and Du Naijian made cassava flour in this room. There was a fire pit inside and they roasted the cassava flour. The cassava flour dried quickly.

I also made a meal of bread using the cassava flour I made, which was very delicious.

And they ate food made from cassava every day, which made their stomachs feel lighter. They used six more spoons of soybean oil than usual. Although it was insufficient, it was still a good food that was beneficial to the country.

On the afternoon of the fourth day, people from Linjiapo, Gujia Village, Xiejiaping, Dujia Village, and Wuting Village all came. They hurried here after receiving Chang Liang Wei’s letter.

Xiejiaping is the village where the husband and wife of Gu Fuya, the biological daughter of the third grandfather and the third grandmother, have returned. Gu Jinli sent people to the village to ask for news about Gu Fuya's family. All they got was: "I haven't seen him yet. I should." Did he go to the Northeast, or sold himself to some noble person as a slave?"

Although they were not found, the people in Xiejiaping were pretty good, so Gu Jinli reached out to take care of them. If something good happened, he would think of them.

Dujiacun is the village of Dr. Du and his family, and Wuting Village is the natal village of the third grandma.

Gu Jinli had already told Qi Yi that several villages wanted to try cassava, so after learning that they were coming, Qi Yi met with them in person and explained the pros and cons of trying cassava.

"Cassava is not something that suddenly appeared. It is a ghost potato from the northwest. It is poisonous, but it can be eaten after the toxins are removed. It can feed people. If you try to eat it, you will have to sign a life and death certificate. If something happens, the government will The government will give you medicine, funeral money, and pension money, but if you survive, I will ask for credit for you and let your village name go down in history."

Lin Houde took the lead and said: "Master Prefect, we know the benefits and risks, and are willing to give it a try. Please let us sign a life and death certificate!"

 Lin Houde's family really suffered a lot after escaping from famine, and his family had been defeated beyond hope. Only by taking a risk could it be possible to revitalize the Lin family.

People in other villages also said: "Sir, we are not afraid of death and are willing to eat!"

Supervisor Du Nei said: "It's not that serious. I ate it for half a month and I'm still alive and well." I just feel a little greedy.

"Now that you have thought it through, I will sign a life and death certificate for you." Qi Yi took out several written life and death certificates and slowly read them to them. After reading, he asked: "Do you understand? ? If you don’t understand something, just ask and I will answer it for you.”

　　　“Your Excellency spoke in plain language, and we all understood it.”

Qi Yi said: "Okay, let's sign and fingerprint."

 For those who can’t write, Qi Yi will do it for you, but you have to do your fingerprints yourself.

After finishing it, Qi Yi said: "The records of life and death will be kept in the government office, you can rest assured. These are ten taels of silver, you can keep them. Every village that tastes cassava grain has them."

 “Hey, thank you sir!” The big guy happily accepted the money.

In addition, villages that try out cassava grains will also receive preferential treatment. If you have anything to do, you can go straight to the prefectural city to see him. If you get sick, no matter what the disease is, the prefectural government will send a doctor to see a doctor, and the medicine and consultation fees will be free of charge.

Since the imperial court was poor, Qi Yi paid for these benefits.

"It's done, you come with me, I will take you to learn how to remove toxins from cassava and how to plant cassava." Qi Yi did it himself and took them to Uncle Mutong to learn how to handle cassava.

Many wealthy families also started to move. Sheng Rui came to the guardhouse in person and said that Zhuangzi of the Sheng family was willing to grow cassava and eat cassava.

Uncle He of the Zhong family also came. All the villagers and tenant farmers of the Zhong family were willing to grow and eat cassava.

There are also Zhuangzi from the Shi family, Zhuangzi from the Lei family caravan, Zhuangzi from the Fengjia **** agency, Zhuangzi from the Fang family, the Zheng family, and the Shangguan family, all of whom are happy to grow and eat cassava.

After General Dai of the third line of defense heard about it, he sent Butler Dai to come and said: "Our Dai family is willing to try cassava, the tenant farmers under my command are also willing to eat it, and my aunt's natal village is also willing to try cassava."

General Dai is not good at fighting, but he is happy to do something that can earn him credit. It is not him who eats cassava anyway, so there is no need to be afraid.

The Dai family is also very wealthy and has sent dozens of carts of things, including charcoal, medicinal materials, meat and grain, etc., as if they were afraid that Chang Liangwei would not agree to let them try cassava.

Qi Yi agreed, but explained: "The cassava is now in the trial stage, and the guard station is an important place for guarding the border and resisting the army. It is best not to let the third line of defense guard station try to eat cassava."

Butler Dai said: "Don't worry, sir, our general is a coward. He doesn't dare to risk the guardhouse."

General Dai is most afraid of death, but he does not dare to let his guards try to eat cassava.

Qi Yi: "Come here and sign the life and death certificates."

 “Hey.” Every household signed a life and death certificate one after another.

 After a few more days of busy work, at the end of November, Xu You, Lord Xin, Jiang Wangang, Uncle Cao, Mr. Qianshan and others came to Changliang Wei again.

The Xu family didn't get the credit, so Xu You didn't want to come, but the new food was a big deal, so he could only come here once.

 Fortunately, it was just a formality, a witness, a stamp, it was all done in one day, and the endurance was over.

"Master Xu, Mr. Xin, and General Jiang, these are the life and death certificates signed by each village and prefecture. Please take a look." Qi Yi laid out a stack of life and death certificates, and then put Sheng Rui, Dai Guanjia, and each The village chief called to see Xu You.
