Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

After processing the people’s prayers, Zhou Ying collected all the sweet potatoes from her grassland and planted some taro and more potatoes.

Lastly, she hunted a few fat wild ducks and baked them into beer-roasted bucks in her oven.

The next day, Zhou Ying collected the remaining chili in the morning. It was almost noon when the couple brought two roast ducks to the manor.

“Looks like 1’11 get to improve my lunch today.” Zhou Huaiming smiled as he smelled the aroma of the roast duck.

“You’re lucky. We caught no fish by the river a few nights ago but finally caught two ducks last night.” Gu Chengrui replied with a smile.

“That’s so lucky. I’m sure the flock of wild ducks that flew over earlier has almost all been caught by now.” Manager Liu agreed.

“You guys continue chatting; I’m going to cook.” Zhou Ying then took the ducks and went to the kitchen.

It just so happened they butchered a cow in the manor yesterday, so she stewed a small pot of beef, some cured meat stewed with beans, and then made three vegetable dishes.

At the same time, Gu Chengrui called Chang Shun, Uncle Nian, and Sun Hongliang over; they all ate together.

Sun Hongliang looked at Zhou Ying after the meal, who was already sitting at the side drinking tea, and asked, “Mistress, there are many cattle and sheep in the village ready for butchering.

“In addition, the situation in various places has stabilized. Should we reopen our restaurant?”

Zhou Ying paused for a moment and shook her head. “Although it has stabilized, I’m afraid that only a few people are willing to eat at a restaurant. So, I don’t think there’s a need to open it for now.

“If there are a lot of cattle and sheep, we can slaughter them and sell them as meat.”

“That’s possible. Now that every family is short on oil and meat, we can sell the meat for a high price.

“It’s a pity that there’s no pork; otherwise, we could have made a fortune.” Manager Liu nodded in agreement.

After that, he looked at Sun Hongliang and said, “It’s not too late to open the restaurant when the dock’s business is running. Otherwise, the peanuts we earn are insufficient to pay you your monthly salary. It’s not worth it.”

“I know, Uncle.”

“If you plan to sell meat, you can sell mutton soup, beef soup, and their offals. It’s cheap and has plenty of fat, so it should sell well. The key is that it saves labor.” Uncle Nian spoke up at this moment.

“Brother Sun, you can try selling them outside the restaurant for two days and judge the public’s reaction. If it can be sold, then we’ll continue. If not, then wait.

“However, you must be careful being on the streets. Don’t leave too early and return too late.”

“I understand. You guys continue chatting, and we’ll take our leave.” After Sun Hongliang finished speaking, he stood up and said goodbye to Zhou Huaiming and Gu Chengrui before leaving.

Then, Chang Shun and Uncle Nian also took their leave. At the same time, they also brought their plates, bowls, chopsticks, and other things into the kitchen.

After chatting for a while, Zhou Huaiming brought up the topic of wild rose tea.

Gu Chengrui got up and brought him and Manager Liu to Xin’an village. When Zhou Ying saw this, she also went out for a walk. After seeing that the sweet potatoes were growing well, she gave Sun Hongliang a few more words of advice and went back to the village.

When she returned at night, Zhou Ying learned that Gu Chengrui had taken 20 pounds of wild roses, and Zhou Huaiming wanted to sell the rest in the capital.

The following day, Zhou Huaiming brought her a large piece of beef and requested it be made into beef jerky. He had a free lunch in the afternoon and left the village with the beef jerky and wild roses.

In the blink of an eye, nearly two months had passed, and the first batch of white sweet potatoes had been harvested.

Beef and mutton were constantly being sold, but not in large quantities. Including the county and town, half a cow or two sheep were sold on average each day.

On the other hand, the mutton and beef soup was gone quickly every day. Every afternoon, it would be sold out in less than two hours once the stall was opened..
