Chapter 177
After returning to the household, Huang Zhixing, who was confused, angrily showed Tangning the approval document. It was in triplicate. Tangning could take one copy with her signature.

During the period, Huang Zhixing also told her Du Bailiang's words, "Since ancient times, scholars in agriculture, industry and commerce have the last business records. You don't want to abandon agriculture and go to business!"

Tangning's good mood was ruined by these words. Fortunately, she was not impulsive, but she said flatly, "As long as the adults plan a few acres of land for us, we will definitely go to the fields!"

Huang Zhixing choked, and shook his head guiltily, "I'm not capable of this!"

Tang Ning shrugged, "That's it! It's not that we don't want to go to the land, it's that the actual conditions don't allow it! My lord can't indiscriminately classify us as merchants! Besides, the imperial court stipulates that the people can open up wasteland by themselves, and the first three years are exempted." Taxation, this land reclamation is naturally reclaiming wasteland, there is no wasteland in our area, even if food is really grown, then there is no need to pay taxes, right! "

"What the hell!" Huang Zhixing was dumbfounded, thinking he was hallucinating.

"Isn't it?" Tangning asked while tilting her head.

Huang Zhixing was speechless for a while, but the facts seemed to be true. Fenggu Village was a wasteland in the center, and the magistrate would not allow it to open up wasteland. What if they went to other places to grow food?But apart from the fields and wasteland, where else can we grow food?in the water?
Huang Zhixing shook his head, rejecting all guesses.

Before he could figure it out, Tangning had already completed all the documents and left gracefully.

Having these materials is equivalent to having a business license, and their shop can finally open.

Because of the customs of the people here, they had previously set up an earth temple outside the stockade, and this time they spent a lot of money to build a temple for the God of Wealth next to the earth temple.

When the God of Wealth Temple came together, the incense in their place immediately flourished, and everyone's business gradually became prosperous.

Needless to say, Tang Laosi's sausage business, as long as it smells like this, most people can't resist buying it. The same goes for the marinade, which is cheap and durable, and it's a good thing to drink with.

Snacks like mahua are the favorites of women and children, syrup is a necessity, and seafood, tofu nao is exclusive to Chaozhou. With these things, and beside the official road, their place has become the second largest place. Jiji, the name of Fengguzhai was also spread.

Fenggu Village is so famous that even Du Bailiang and Master Chen have heard about it. The two originally wanted to test the Tang family, but they didn't expect them to make such a big noise.

But Huang Zhixing began to doubt life, the place is obviously like deep mountains and old forests, how could it be possible?
Because of doubts, Huang Zhixing finally planned to take a look by himself. After reporting to Du Bailiang, Du Bailiang actually wanted to go and have a look together.

In this way, the two left the city with a group of entourage in casual clothes. When they arrived at the boundary of Fenggu Village, they found that there were many people squatting on the side of the road waiting to barter. Most of them were from surrounding villages, and some came from far away Those who came here were very lively.

A group of people entered the tofu shop and ordered several bowls of tofu nao, both salty and sweet.

Du Bailiang only took a bite of sweet tofu and his eyes lit up, "What is this syrup made of?"

Huang Jun, who served the food, shook his head, pointed to the sugar shop next door and said, "If you want to know, you have to go over there. There is a shop that sells sugar."

"There's also a candy seller!" Du Bailiang was in high spirits, and after eating tofu nao and paying the copper coins, he really went there.

When I arrived at the sugar shop, I realized that it really sells sugar here, such as syrup, sugar cubes, powdered sugar, caramel, halva, brown sugar, brown sugar, etc. There are various varieties and grades. Even the poor can pick the right sugar when they enter the door. .

Du Bailiang and Tang Zhong asked: "Shopkeeper, you made all the candy here?"

Tang Zhong nodded slightly, looked them around, and asked, "Buy candy?"

"Buy!" Du Bailiang said decisively.

When Tang Zhong introduced it, he couldn't help asking: "What are these candies made of?"

Tang Zhong didn't answer this time, he just said: "It's hard to say that it's a unique skill."

Huang Zhixing was about to say something.

Du Bailiang stopped immediately, smiled with Tang Zhong, and said, "Since that's the case, we really don't want to ask more questions. Let us pack some sugar and take it away."

After leaving the sugar shop they went to the sausage shop and the marinade shop, and bought some of them all.

Seven seven eight eight, even bought a bunch of them, and Qiu Jingming didn't recognize them until he was at the grocery store, "Isn't this Mr. Huang?"

Speaking of Qiu Jingming, his peripheral vision drifted towards Du Bailiang, the person who could be treated with such respect by Huang Zhixing, the identity of this person was ready to be revealed, but the other party was wearing a veiled hat, so he couldn't see his true face clearly at all.

Huang Zhixing took off his veiled hat speechlessly, and asked angrily, "How do you know I'm covered up like this?"

Qiu Jingming didn't answer, but his gaze said everything.

Huang Zhixing took a closer look at his attire and found that there was nothing wrong with it.

Du Bailiang couldn't stand it anymore, he patted Huang Zhixing's big belly, shook his head, walked straight in, and looked at the things in the shop.

All the shops in Fengguzhai had the same layout. At the beginning, they didn't know what business they were going to do. Tang Ning asked Tang Junsheng and the others to build up the shop. It was a waste to use such a big shop to open a grocery store.

Qiu Jingming simply divided the shop into two, selling women's rouge, gouache, accessories and fabrics, and selling daily necessities, such as firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, tea, and all kinds of gadgets from the Four Treasures of the Study. What? What.

Du Bailiang walked around inside carefully, and found that there were seasonings that he had never seen before, and he immediately became interested, "What is this?"

"My lord, this is soy sauce. When cooking, sprinkle some on it, it can replace salt." Qiu Jingming replied respectfully.

Salt is an extremely sensitive thing. As soon as Qiu Jingming said it, everyone fell silent and looked at him in surprise.

Du Bailiang narrowed his eyes even more, and his voice sank a bit, "Do you know what you're talking about?"

Qiu Jingming replied respectfully: "Caomin knows, but this soy sauce itself is salty, and it can indeed replace salt."

While speaking, Master Chen already had sharp eyesight and quick hands. After dipping a little soy sauce into his mouth and tasting it carefully, he said to Du Bailiang in shock: "My lord, it is really salty, and there is no trace of salt."

The corners of Qiu Jingming's mouth twitched fiercely. The soy sauce was pitch black, not to mention the shadow of salt, even if gravel was poured into it, it would be difficult to detect, okay?
"What is this thing made of?" Du Bailiang asked seriously.

Qiu Jingming also knew that the situation would not allow him to lie, so he replied truthfully: "The main raw materials are beans and salt. After complicated processes, it is finally made into sauce."
