The little girl from a farm family has a big wish to make a fortune by farming and picking mushrooms

Chapter 238 Lianglin Roast Duck

"Girl, is this a new product you developed?"

"I guess so. Actually, the highlight is the roast duck. We need to wait a little longer. This is the small roast skewers in the hanging oven. You can roast whatever you want."

"Haha, not bad, delicious, and your wine is very refreshing."

"Thank you for the compliment, magistrate. I think there should be more at home. I'll go take a look."

Two jars of wine were not enough for this group of men to drink. Zhou Mingshu picked up the empty jar and went to the storage room to see if he could get another jar.

But she was disappointed as there was not much beer left in the brewing tank.

Fortunately, there are plenty of them in the system, so she can just redeem them with points.

One jar is for everyone to drink, and the other small jar is more exquisite and will be left for the county magistrate to enjoy alone.

When everyone saw the little girl bringing over two more jars of wine, they quickly stood up to greet her.

I have to say that this beer tastes really good and is very refreshing to drink. Everyone likes to drink it.

Even the young men in the yamen who couldn't drink could have a couple of drinks.

"That's all I have. You guys drink it first. I'll make more later so you can drink to your heart's content."

When the yamen runners heard what Zhou Mingshu said, they were as happy as children.

Turning around, I saw Mrs. Zhou and others coming over with food.

"Okay, eat quickly."

There was another bowl of white rice, a few dishes of stir-fried dishes, and a few plates of pickles and mushroom sauce on the table.

"Sanya, go check if the roast duck is ready?"

"It should be almost done."

Zhou Mingshu and Old Mrs. Zhou took a tray and turned on the hanging stove, and the aroma from inside wafted into the air.

The aroma of the four roast ducks immediately filled the yard.

The people who were eating rice all stretched their necks to look.

"Hurry up, hurry up, they can't wait." Old Mrs. Zhou smiled. She believed that the roast duck at home would be loved by everyone.

After Zhou Mingshu removed the bamboo strips, he cut the duck into small pieces and sprinkled the dipping sauce on it.

"Hurry, eat it while it's hot, it's the most delicious when it's hot!"

Old Mrs. Zhou greeted everyone warmly and couldn't wait to hear everyone's praise.

"Oh, it smells so good!"

"I'm so greedy, my mouth is watering just from smelling it."

"Greedy boy, don't your parents make delicious food for you?"

"I've roasted duck before, but it never smelled this good. I must have roasted it the wrong way. I'll try another way next time."

"You talk too much. If you keep talking, the duck will be gone."

The four roast ducks were snatched away in no time, except for the one in front of County Magistrate Niu, which no one dared to touch.

"Sister-in-law, you have been busy for a long time. You should sit down and eat something."

"No, no, you guys eat. We've all eaten. We have a stove at home. We can roast whatever we want anytime. But it's not easy for you guys to come here from such a long distance. Eat more. If you're short of anything, I'll prepare it for you."

"That's enough, that's enough. We don't need anything."

Zhou Mingshu picked so much garlic because he wanted them to eat it with the duck meat, but he didn't expect that they didn't have time to wrap it.

In the end, there was no duck bone left, but there was a lot of garlic left in the basket.

The food on the plate was swept away, not even the pickles were left.

"Are you guys full? If not, I'll cook two more dishes. These are all ready-made dishes."

"I'm full, I'm full. Auntie, you don't have to work any more. I'm full."

"Auntie, you should just take a rest. It's mainly because your cooking skills are so good that we can't control our appetites, so we eat so much."

"Hahaha, it's okay as long as you're full, it's okay as long as you're full."

The two talkative yamen runners made Old Mrs. Zhou very happy, and she brought more tea to refill their cups.

After everyone had eaten and drunk their fill and rested for a while, they decided to go back.

The journey will take at least two hours, and it will be dark by the time we get back to the county.

“Girl, your roast duck is really unique. Have you given it a name?” County Magistrate Niu felt itchy again.

"Not yet. We haven't started selling yet."

"Haha, okay, how about calling it 'Lianglin Roast Duck'?"

"Good, let's call it that."

"Okay, I'll have someone send the words to you after I finish writing them. I heard you run other businesses, it seems to be called 'Lianglin Xiangfang'"?

Zhou Mingshu didn't expect the county magistrate to know this. "Hehe, that's right. How did the county magistrate know this?"

"Haha, didn't you give a gift to the people in the county government? They didn't know how to use it, so everyone in the county government knew about it. Well, we'll go back now. You must be tired from running around, so take a rest early."

Magistrate Niu recalled what happened that day and was overjoyed.

They thought it was some kind of pastry, so they took two bites and discovered that foam formed in their mouths as they chewed it.

The master looked at the instructions on it and realized that this thing was used for washing clothes and was called soap.

It’s just a pity that those two idiots took a long time to rinse their mouths.

The people of Old Zhou's family breathed a sigh of relief after seeing off the county magistrate and his entourage.

Even though the county magistrate was very kind, they were still nervous.

Zhou Laoda and his two brothers sympathized with the fact that the family was tired after spending most of the day, so they cleaned the dining table and the yard.

"San Ya, didn't you say that this duck feather is useful? Why did you keep it?"

Zhou Laosan held a big broom, not sure whether to sweep away the duck feathers.

"Wait a minute, I'll get my things and clean it up."

These duck feathers will be of great use if we keep them!

Zhou Mingshu called Zhou Mingqi to help collect all the duck down to make duck down quilts.

Don't bother with the remaining large feathers.

After cleaning the house, no one had the energy to do anything else and everyone was very tired.

"San Ya, we collected nearly 30 ducks in the village today. Each duck costs about 20 wen. A smaller duck costs 18 wen, which is still within 20 wen. How much should we sell this roast duck for?"

"Let's sell a duck for twenty-four cents. If someone buys half a duck, that's twelve cents. We'll separate the duck's head, wings, feet, and neck into stewed dishes. We'll also make duck viscera, duck liver, and so on, all of which we'll make into stewed dishes. The profit from a duck is about eight cents. In addition, we have duck down to use."

"Okay, then let's do as you say. Let's set the price like this. It's not good to make too much money."

"By the way, what were you doing with the county magistrate and the others? Why didn't I hear you tell me about it?"

"Grandma, don't be curious. The county magistrate didn't let me tell you. He just asked me to lead the way. He just told me that he has given our roast duck a name, 'Lianglin Roast Duck'. He will send the name to us in a few days. By then, our roast duck will be famous."

"Oh, that's great! Our roast duck will definitely be a big hit."

Before he could finish his words, a new neighbor appeared in the yard. It was Uncle Liu Qing, who lived not far away.
