Chapter 332 Classroom Rewards!

"Uncle," Xiao Ran greeted Cheng Yaojin.

Cheng Yaojin patted Xiao Ran on the shoulder and said, "You've finally arrived. Yesterday, someone asked me what we were eating and whether it was available in supermarkets, so I came to ask you today."

Xiao Ran shook his head. "Uncle, I've discussed the hot pot restaurant with His Majesty before. Opening a restaurant is unlikely. But I was just thinking that we could sell hot pot base."

Cheng Yaojin asked, "Is it the spicy one we put in the pot yesterday?"

Xiao Ran nodded. "Yes, actually, there isn't much difference between hot pot and modern hot pot. The only difference is the broth and the ingredients. With a good broth, you can still have plenty of ingredients."

Cheng Yaojin certainly didn't care about the specifics; he was just asking for the results. Hearing Xiao Ran say this, he replied, "In that case, I'll go and tell them."

Xiao Ran also said, "Okay, then I'll go and discuss this matter with Chang Le and the others."

After saying that, Xiao Ran walked towards the kindergarten.

It was break time, and when Xiao Ran went over, he saw the little princess sliding down the slide, her joyful laughter echoing throughout the playground.

Li Lizhi was watching them from the side to prevent the children from getting hurt.

“Young master?” Li Lizhi looked up and saw Xiao Ran.

Xiao Ran walked over and asked, "How was today? Was Sizi obedient?"

Li Lizhi looked at the little princess with eyes full of tenderness.

"Sizi has always been obedient, and now that she feels she is the class monitor, she should take on responsibilities, so she seems more composed than usual."

The voice just fell.

"Little Princess~" The little princess saw Xiao Ran and ran over, which was completely different from the composed person Li Lizhi had described.

Xiao Ran bent down and touched the little princess's forehead, finding that she wasn't sweating much, and then he felt relieved.

The little princess hugged Xiao Ran's legs and looked at Li Lizhi, "Little Nangjun is mine~"

Li Lizhi chuckled, "Okay, it's yours."

The little princess cheered up and pulled Xiao Ran into the kindergarten.

"Little Nangjun, let's play on this duck~" the little princess said, pointing to the slide.

That's a children's slide; Xiao Ran definitely can't play on it.

He followed the little princess's lead and walked forward. When they reached the slide, Xiao Ran said, "Sizi, go play. I'll watch you from here, okay?"

The little princess nodded, took her short legs and slowly climbed the stairs. Once she reached the platform of the slide, she let out a breath, sat down, and slid straight down.

"Duck~ So much fun~" The little princess laughed until her eyes narrowed.

Xiao Ran smiled, then looked at Li Lizhi and said, "Didn't we have hot pot yesterday? Many people have asked if we could add hot pot base to supermarkets?"

"This is a consumable item," Li Lizhi nodded. "I think it's a good idea. I think there should be quite a few people who want to buy it."

Moreover, hot pot base isn't just for hot pot; it can also be used for stir-fries and other dishes.

That's how the decision was made.

Soon, the bell rang for class.

The little princess hugged Xiao Ran tightly, reluctant to part.

Xiao Ran comforted her, "Si Zi will be able to see me when we eat later."

The little princess held up her pinky finger.

"We're all done eating!"

Xiao Ran smiled and made a pinky promise with her, "Okay, we've got it."

The little princess skipped and hopped back to the classroom.

At lunchtime, Xiao Ran kept his promise and ate lunch with the little princess, and even watched her take a nap.

"Little Princess~" The little princess, who had just been woken up, was still not fully awake and reached out her hands to Xiao Ran in a daze.

Xiao Ran picked up the little princess, took the wet handkerchief from Hongxiu, and wiped the little princess's face.

The little princess closed her eyes and let Xiao Ran rub her face.

"Alright, Sizi, let's go out and share the fruit." Looking at the sleepy little princess, Xiao Ran suppressed a laugh and woke her up.

"Guoguo~" The little princess opened her eyes, and couldn't help but look forward to what fruit would be available today.

The other children have also woken up and are being helped to wash their faces or go to the toilet.

After everyone had tidied up, they returned to the classroom, sat in rows, and distributed the fruit.

"It's a strawberry duck~"

The little princess was holding a large strawberry in both hands, with a carton of yogurt next to her.

"Do you want to eat the rhinoceros now?" Xiao Ran asked.

The little princess was practically drooling, and when she heard Xiao Ran ask that, she quickly nodded.

Xiao Ran washed the strawberries again before handing them to the little princess.

The little princess squinted her eyes as she took a bite.

"Sweetie~ Good morning~"

After finishing a strawberry, the little princess was clearly still a bit hungry, but the school had given the strawberries to all the children, and it was impossible for everyone to have only one, so an exception was made for the little princess.

So Xiao Ran said, "How about we eat them after school? I'll buy a lot of strawberries for Si Zi."

The little princess nodded vigorously, "Okay~"

But that happened after I got home. Now there are no strawberries, but there's yogurt.

"Little Nang-kun~ have a drink~"

The little princess pointed at the yogurt and said.

Xiao Ran inserted the straw into the little princess's mouth, and the little princess held the yogurt and drank it obediently.

The other children were too eager and finished their food in just a few bites. Now they were watching the other children eat fruit and drink yogurt with longing eyes, while others were deliberately trying to tempt the children next to them.

In other words, most of these children are precocious. If they were in a modern kindergarten, some of them would probably be crying by now.

Seeing this, Li Lizhi stopped them, saying, "Everyone should eat their own food. You can't bully other children."

After eating fruit, Li Lizhi led a group of children to wash their hands, and then began the first class of the afternoon, which was Xiao Ruoying's craft class.

Today, Xiao Ruoying brought a bunch of pipe cleaners. Actually, although it was called a craft class, it was partly to help these children improve their finger dexterity and partly to let them play.

As for the finished products, Xiao Ruoying also set up an incentive plan.

"After everyone finishes their work, the other children can vote for their favorite. The one with the most votes will be awarded a little red flower by the teacher. Once you collect ten red flowers, you can exchange them for all sorts of delicious treats from the teacher."

The children present immediately became interested and each of them did it very seriously.

Soon it was time for get out of class to end, and the girl with the most votes was the little princess from Chengyang.

She made a flower out of pipe cleaners, and it was very well done.

Xiao Ruoying took out a sheet of stickers, all covered with little red flowers.

She picked one of them and said, "Then this little red flower belongs to our Fanyin."

At this moment, Xiao Ruoying took out a notebook from her textbook, which contained the names of the children in the class.

Xiao Ruoying put a small red flower after the name of the little princess of Chengyang.

After school, the three little princesses couldn't wait to go out and find Xiao Ran.

"Brother! Second Sister got a little red flower!" Princess Gaoyang shouted excitedly, as if she were the one who received the little red flower.

Princess Chengyang smiled shyly.

The little princess also said, "Second sister has a little fortune~" Xiao Ran first patted the little princess of Chengyang, "Fanyin is so great."

“Little Nangjun~” The little princess grabbed Xiao Ran’s hand, not to be outdone.

Xiao Ran understood and simply placed his hand on the little princess's head and patted it.

Princess Chengyang wasn't angry; instead, she smiled tolerantly.

Xiao Ran returned home with the three little princesses and, as usual, did his homework.

After finishing their homework, the three little princesses played with Rou Rou for a while before getting ready to eat. After dinner, they watched cartoons, and that's how their wonderful day came to an end.

The next day, Xiao Ran took a variety of hot pot bases to Datang Supermarket.

When Changsun Wuji learned that this was the hot pot base, he immediately offered to buy it all, while Cheng Yaojin glared at him.

"That's so unfair! No way! I want some too!"

The others saw this and thought, "This won't do. Everyone wants to try this new thing."

Seeing this, Xiao Ran quickly said, "Uncles, I brought a lot of hot pot base this time, and there are all kinds of flavors. Just buy some to try first, don't buy too much, there will be more tomorrow."

Cheng Yaojin waved his hand and said first, "Give me two packs of that spicy one from yesterday!"

Cheng Chumo jumped up and down behind him, shouting, "Grandpa! Four packs! Four packs!"

Cheng Yaojin immediately changed his mind, "Then four packs!"

Xiao Ran gave Cheng Yaojin four packets and instructed him, "Uncle, don't put too much in at once. Just put it in gradually, not all at once, or it will be too spicy."

Cheng Yaojin nodded, took the hot pot base and left, it's unclear whether he listened to Xiao Ran's words.

Xiao Ran lingered at the supermarket for a while, then handed the matter over to Cheng Chumo and Qin Huaiyu.

He was going to see Li Chengqian to discuss the construction of the cement plant.

By this time, the cement work was almost complete, and cement had begun to be laid in other parts of the university as well.

The area where the cement was first laid has long since dried.

"Your Highness, these are the blueprints for the cement plant. You can have someone take a look at them."

Li Chengqian glanced at it but couldn't figure it out. Sure enough, professional matters should be left to professionals.

Xiao Ran discussed the matter with them and finally settled on a plan. Then, he went to conduct an on-site inspection, drew a boundary line, and prepared to start laying the foundation.

Seeing them busy and enthusiastic, Xiao Ran returned to the university.

But instead of going to the kindergarten, he went to the experimental field.

"Are they ripe?" Xiao Ran squatted down, looked at the strawberry bushes, and found that the strawberries inside had turned red.

The Minister of Agriculture, who was standing nearby, quickly came over.

"Xiao Langjun."

Xiao Ran nodded. "These strawberries look ripe to me."

Sinong said, "They are indeed ripe, but we are considering saving them for breeding. Speaking of which, we were going to bother the young master, but you happened to come, which saves us trouble."

Xiao Ran looked at the strawberries; they were growing quite well. "There's no rush to save seeds. I'll check on planting a different variety of strawberry tomorrow. It's still in the experimental stage, so there's no need to rush to save seeds."

Upon hearing this, the Minister of Agriculture nodded.

Afterwards, Xiao Ran had someone bring over a basin, picked out a basin full of large strawberries, had them washed clean, and then went to the Lizheng Hall.

"Your Highness." Xiao Ran entered carrying strawberries.

Li Chengqian looked up and smiled, "You've been coming quite often today."

Xiao Ran smiled, "This is just in time. I saw that the strawberries over there in the greenhouse were ripe, so I picked some. Would Your Highness like to try some?"

Li Chengqian had certainly eaten strawberries before, but these were strawberries grown in their own Tang Dynasty, so of course he had to try them.

"Hmm, these seem to be a bit more sour than the strawberries the young master brought," Li Chengqian said.

Xiao Ran also tried one, "Indeed, but the strawberry flavor is very strong."

Many strawberries these days are big and sweet, but they don't taste like real strawberries.

The strawberries here in the Tang Dynasty are smaller and have a sweet and sour taste, not just pure sweetness; they have a very strong strawberry flavor.

Besides strawberries, potatoes will be ripe soon too.

Li Chengqian was more excited about the ripening of potatoes than the ripening of strawberries.

"Young master, are the potatoes really ripe?"

Xiao Ran nodded, "That's right, it should be ready in about ten more days."

Li Chengqian paced back and forth in the room excitedly.

"This is so great!"

Seeing Li Chengqian's excited expression, Xiao Ran shook his head helplessly.

"Your Highness, I'm going to pick up Sizi now; she should be getting out of school soon."

Li Chengqian nodded, "Go ahead, go ahead."

Xiao Ran arrived at the kindergarten. The little princess had indeed finished school, but she didn't want to go straight back; she was waiting for Xiao Ran to come over.

Upon seeing Xiao Ran appear, the little princess quickly ran over.

"Little Nang-kun~ You're back~"

Xiao Ran hugged the little princess and saw a flower stuck to the back of her hand.

"What is this?" Xiao Ran asked, puzzled.

The little princess looked at the back of her hand with a proud expression.

"This is my little duckling~"

Princess Gaoyang also raised her hand.

"Brother! I have one too!"

After learning about the little red flower from Xiao Ruoying, Li Lizhi and Princess Yuzhang all thought it was a good idea and decided to adopt it as well.

Xiao Ran gently touched the little princess's face.

"Our Sizi is awesome!"

Then he patted Princess Gaoyang and Princess Chengyang, saying, "Seventeen and Fanyin are also great."

Princess Chengyang and Princess Gaoyang looked at Xiao Ran with smiles on their faces.

This time, Xiao Ran did not take the three little princesses home, but stopped at the Lizheng Hall.

Of course, Li Lizhi and Xiao Ruoying were also there.

"Brother," Li Lizhi greeted Li Chengqian.

Although Li Chengqian was no longer as excited, he couldn't help but say upon seeing Li Lizhi, "Sister, the potatoes are almost cooked!"

Li Lizhi has been busy researching the kindergarten lately and hasn't had time to pay attention to the experimental fields. Hearing Li Chengqian say this, Li Lizhi's eyes widened.

"really?"

Li Chengqian nodded and looked at Xiao Ran, "It was the young master who said it."

The two turned their heads and saw Xiao Ran holding the little princess and eating strawberries.

"Where did these strawberries come from?" Li Lizhi asked, puzzled.
