Chapter 1322: Snow Maiden and Strawberries

The sour smell radiating from Zhang Yanping's body almost filled the entire kitchen, and accompanied by his resentment, Lu Chuan's first batch of test products failed.

Grandpa Qi was also quite interested in desserts. At this moment, he stood by and pointed: "After mixing this mugwort juice with flour, the effect after coming out of the oven isn't good... that bitterness is too heavy."

"Mm." Lu Chuan also stared at the failed light olive-green puff shell and shook his head: "This color isn't good-looking, Qiao Qiao definitely won't like it. I'll change to another one to make."

Only Zhang Yanping was happy: "Oh my! How come the dessert failed? What a pity! Otherwise, you go help carry bamboo shoots, let's drink milk tea, it's quite good."

Hmph, call you biased!

Lu Chuan was expressionless: "It doesn't matter, there will be a failure rate for trial-making new products—by the way, I bought two sets of homestay management systems. If you are so free, Brother Yanping, why don't I return one."

"Manual management isn't difficult."

For their small homestay, the price of the management system customized on demand was also very cheap, but no matter how cheap, it wasn't something the brothers who were poor and clinking could take out.

So Zhang Yanping knelt down quickly: "What is the master saying! I'm afraid your materials aren't enough. What else do you need? I'll go prepare it right away!"

Grandpa Qi laughed "pfft": "Tsk! Zhang Yanping, you really grew such a tall and strong body in vain."

Zhang Yanping wasn't wrong!

Jiao Shanyun's eyes widened. Looking like he wasn't going to pick strawberries, but instead was helping with the fire: "Do you know how much they treasure their strawberries?"

This kind of seasonal, open-air grown strawberry tasted better than greenhouse strawberries. Plus, they used seedlings cultivated by Jiao Shan. They tasted the first batch that matured, and the taste was incredibly good!

This kind of good thing, the first batch had to be sent out for inspection, then left in batches for seeds, then in the nearby Tian Tian's house, using vines to propagate and seed germination, and then observe for 3~5 years to see if their traits and advantages were stable after leaving the Song family's feng shui treasure land...

The day before yesterday, they specifically picked 10 to let everyone taste—it wasn't stingy, but it wasn't the season yet, and not many were ripe.

Really angry, not only having no status in the Song family, but also having no status in front of these hired personnel?!

However, by the time the steamer was set up, Zhang Yanping, who went to pick strawberries, hadn't returned.

"Not bad, looks much better than the burnt shell just now—this needs to be steamed, right?"

Qi Lin and Tang Xiaodong closed their notebooks—"Coming!"

Relying on these, their graduate students couldn't be stable, but whether they were masters or doctors in three or five years depended on these!

And on the mountain, Lu Chuan had already stirred the dark green mugwort juice into the low-gluten flour and glutinous rice flour, and then carefully weighed the cornstarch and milk, white sugar...

What old tea, what old tea, the law didn't stipulate that green tea couldn't be put into the second year! In short, Song Tan had already quickly summoned two classmates:

"How is it? Can it work? If it can, hurry down and pick!"

"Yeah, it won't work either. Don't try to pretend to be cute. You really aren't suitable for that look."

Lu Chuan was puzzled: "Just a small basket, fifty or sixty is enough, haven't you finished picking yet?"

Just talking and laughing, Lu Chuan remembered the new product again, so he asked: "I remember in Song Tan's experimental field on the mountain, the strawberries should be a little ripe. If you have time, can you help me get a small basket?"

"I guarded this strawberry like a child until it bore fruit. It's not easy. Make desserts with something else!"

When he handed out the huge basket in front of him, Jiao Shan's eyes seemed to be spraying fire:

Strawberries were precious, but they had a whole field. The ones that matured later were endless. And the status of tea leaves, based on their salary, they couldn't bear to buy them. If they wanted to possess them, they could only get a little during the holidays.

After all, strawberries were good, but they couldn't compare to tea leaves!

He went out freely and found a large basket in the courtyard to go up the mountain!

The tea leaves were bought from Yanran last year, but they weren't finished. Now that he wanted to take someone's love, he naturally had to pay a price.

Looking like he was majestic and didn't dare to provoke, who would have thought he was an embroidered pillow?

Zhang Yanping laughed proudly and stretched out two fingers.

Hey!

He went for a walk up the mountain every day and could see the scattered red fruits exposed in the fenced strawberry field. Not to mention Song Tan and the others were excited, posting tracking records on Moments every day...

Zhang Yanping was anxious: "I'm talking business with you, why are you attacking my appearance?! I'm asking you if you want to trade for two taels of tea leaves!"

It was like Tian Tian and the others when they transplanted strawberries for scientific management. Every strawberry was numbered! Now, opening his mouth for a small basket, Song Tan and the others definitely wouldn't refuse, but he, Zhang Yanping, was afraid he would be nagged for a day!

After the dough was stirred evenly, the color presented a beautiful light green. Grandpa Qi leaned over to look, only then nodded:

Although it was a bit worse than what Yanran planted last winter, it could be said to be the leader in the current strawberry market!

"Two taels of tea leaves for a basket of strawberries, the three of us average 33 grams each, the extra 1 gram belongs to me—after all, I'm the first to talk business!"

And Song Tan blinked, instantly smiling like a mountain flower: "Look, Manager Zhang, you are really too polite. Strawberries are meant for everyone to taste, why be so polite? Is it really two taels of tea leaves? From Boss Song's house?"

Zhang Yanping sneered, seeing through this hypocritical world. Contemporary young people were really too sensible.

"Mm," Lu Chuan nodded: "After steaming, you have to knead the butter in, so the taste will be smooth and fragrant, and the special bitterness of mugwort won't be so stimulating."

In short!

Jiao Shan: "..."

It was just that extra gram, sigh, heart hurts! Is Song Tan unable to negotiate the price? Should have asked for two more grams.

A moment later, she hesitated and replied: "Yeah!"

"No, no! If you want to eat, pick 10 for you, no more!"

Quite a large piece of land, picking back and forth, only picked a few.

It had been a few days, should be able to have more, right?

Lu Chuan was also helpless: "There's no fruit at home now. I'm preparing to make a Snow Maiden. The taste of strawberries and cream will be better... especially the strawberries we planted aren't bad—I have two taels of old tea there, can you help me ask if they want to trade?"

Zhang Yanping was able to bend and stretch: "Grandpa Qi, you don't understand, we contemporary young people are very sensible."

Good guy!

Zhang Yanping instantly straightened his chest: "If you have tea leaves, say it earlier! Rest assured, it's solid."

But thinking that Lu Chuan was still waiting down the mountain, he said "Mm": "It's our family's tea leaves, but it's not last year's old tea. Two taels for a basket, if you want to trade, help me pick it."

In short, this business isn't a loss! ===== CHAPTER 1323 =====
