"That's right, it's probably going to be announced this autumn. I only found out about it because I had some information. If not, why would this family of old and young be eating!"

"Has there been a prohibition before?" This was the first time she had heard of the Prohibition of Wine. If wine was banned throughout the country, how could the brewer survive?

Old Liao thought for a moment and said, "It was issued a dozen years ago as well. The prohibition on drinking was five years old. I remember clearly how many of my peers have changed."

For some reason, the lady thought of the ship that had just sailed past Qingyuan County. What was the wine made of? Grain … liquor requires a lot of food, which is why wine costs a lot. Why then would wine be banned? Isn't it all because of the need to store food? And what was it for? Other than War Girl, she couldn't think of any other reason.

Unless war broke out in the next few years, what was the purpose of the imperial government's large-scale cantonment?

In a moment of panic, the little girl became even more anxious as she thought of the blueprints she had yet to deploy. War meant displacement, who could guarantee their absolute safety?

"Lady, Lady?" "What happened to you today? Are you alright? "

Only then did the little girl realize that she had lost her composure, "I'm fine. Continue talking. Where did you end up?"

Seeing Uncle Liao's awkward expression, the lady answered, "Oh, so Uncle Liao doesn't want to brew wine and instead wants to make tofu to sell tofu, right?"

He didn't know why, but he had heard a lot of thoughts from Qiao Ke. He had always felt that the lovely lady should be an old woman, but today, when he met her, she had frightened him, and he could not help but feel that the future was different, each wave was stronger than the previous.

After all, the market in the county is very large, but the supply is very little. If you can sell tofu in the county, you will definitely earn more than in the village. If we work together, how do you think we should split the money? Or maybe you want to buy the recipe and give it to me for how much? "

All of a sudden, Qizong didn't like the girl anymore. They had been chatting very well just now, but when it came to business, it was all money. She was truly a philistine person.

The lady pretended not to see his dissatisfaction and looked fixedly at Old Liao. It seemed that business was going to be talked about soon. No one could guarantee that there would be no more regrets in the future.

"Mm …" If you want me to, I still have several workers in my winery. If I make tofu on a large scale, I can definitely make a lot of them and if I sell it I can definitely make a lot of money. But I asked Little Ke to come here and ask you about this recipe.

The little girl declined to comment. The price was neither high nor low, "Then what if you want to cooperate with us?"

"Shouldn't I ask you that? If you think the three of us can work together, then we are discussing something else. "

Old Liao was not stupid at all. It was obvious that the lady had other ideas, so he changed the topic.

The cute girl smiled and admitted it without any hesitation, "I do have this idea for cooperation. Do you know how many ways to eat tofu?"

"Tofu can be mixed with Red Braised Soup Dumplings …" The moment Qizong heard 'eat', he automatically started counting.

Only after he finished counting patiently did the cute girl shake her head, "This isn't the way to eat. Tofu can be made into tofu milk, dried tofu, stinky tofu, skin, soy milk, soy milk …" In other words, if you make tofu, I can turn that tofu into something else. "

As soon as he said that, Qiao Ke smelled the scent of the new product. "Then what are tofu milk and stinky tofu?"

"Most importantly, we can also use soybeans as soy sauce, which means if we work together, we can completely create a dragon in the soybean industry, from growing to processing to selling, this market that no one involves belongs entirely to us, and if we exaggerate a bit more, in the future, our products will be able to leave, and the entire country's market will be ours."

Old Liao was so shocked that he couldn't move his body. Just how big of an estate was spread all over the country? The imperial merchants were only worth this much.

"Right now, this is only my idea. If you want to join, this idea will become reality sooner or later. I'll give you two days to consider whether or not you want to put your entire fortune into this idea."

After Qiao Ke and Old Liao left, Huang Yi looked at his daughter in disbelief, "Do you know who you looked like when you said those words?"

The cute girl raised an eyebrow, "Who do you look like?"

"Like a lunatic."

Old Liao led his son out of the Qiao family restaurant. He was still in a daze and could not help but ask his son, "Do you think her words are reliable?"

"Father, are you having a fever?" How can you believe such nonsense? "Isn't she just a short-sighted woman who has even read books? You really can believe what you say." Qizong was a little disdainful. Luckily, he came with them today. If he didn't, perhaps his foolish father would have believed him.

The lady knew that her words would not convince anyone, so she brought Old Liao and Qiao Ke to the Lin Village to take a look at the cement road that was only ten meters long.

Although it was just a short ten meters, the thoughts they had were definitely beyond the imagination of the people of this era. Old Liao and Qiao Ke stood on the flat concrete road and exclaimed incessantly, even Qizong could not be bothered to clean it as he placed his hands on the ground and touched the concrete road, "What is this made of?!" How can there be such a flat road! "

If she had known earlier that cement roads could not be paved so easily, she would have spent a lot of effort on how to make the cement roads take shape. Previously, she had seen people building cement roads by using steel bars to first build foundations, then pouring cement into them, and then pressing them with a road roller so that the cement roads would be firm. However, in this era, using steel bars to construct a foundation wasn't very likely. Ye Xuan had no choice but to send people over overnight to use the sword wood as a foundation. Afterwards, he even asked the group of people to build a pigsty for Jiao's family.

Before the true cement road was built, there were still nearly ten meters of roads that had to be broken down and rebuilt. Only after repeated experiments were successful.

In the past few days, the construction team had been repairing the road at the entrance of the village. The villagers had personally witnessed the birth of a white, flat road, one or two or even more honorable, and later, the village head had personally sent people to guard the road to prevent those who came to buy tofu from trampling on the cement road out of curiosity.

It had to be said that at this time, the people's attitude was simple and honest. They knew that the lady had planned to build a road to get to the county, so they didn't want to take any more wages, not to mention the other villages.

"Take out some money to repair the road for us to use. If we don't pay for it, we can at least put in some effort, right? If we still need your money, wouldn't we be worse than beasts? " As he said this, the villagers felt a little embarrassed. They felt that they had taken advantage of the situation, not to mention that they had treated their little girl like that before. They could not help but blush.

Originally, she did not intend to require help. After all, the road from the village to the county city was direct. Even if they were determined not to put in any effort, the lady did not have any words to say.

"Are you trying to get the road to the county town?" Qiao Ke was the first to understand. If there was such a road connecting them to the county, people would rush to the market much faster. If there were more people in the county, wouldn't there be more people buying things?

Just like a restaurant had to be opened in a crowded place, people meant money to these businesses, and people meant money to others. Not to mention whether the lady was right or wrong, for the sake of this road, Qiao Ke was willing to believe in her for once.

At this time, there was actually a good road, but those roads were called the official roads, which were specially opened up for the imperial government. Ordinary citizens could not walk on them, not to mention that the official roads were not everywhere, they were all paved with gravel, and although they were better than the dirt road, they were still covered in dust. Looking at the road that Charming Niang had created, Old Liao felt that it was cleaner than his own home, and wished he could lie down and enjoy himself.
