The peasant girl has a private space, and her husband is handsome.

The Ministry of Personnel's appointment letter was delivered to Qinghe County.

Dong Zhu was promoted to a minor official position, which made Qin Changfeng and several other sons of high-ranking officials extremely envious.

The most enviable person is Su Bing, who rose from a junior officer to a senior officer.

She didn't have to do anything; just because she gave birth to a wonderful daughter, she became a true winner in life.

The people of Qinghe County all envied Su Bing, and no one said that girls were a waste of money anymore.

A string of firecrackers, stretching over ten meters long, was set off in front of Gu's restaurant, creating a lively and exciting atmosphere.

The villagers all came forward to congratulate Su Bing.

"Congratulations, Mr. Su! Congratulations, Mr. Su!"

"Wishing General Su continued success and advancement!"

……

Su Bing was an honest and simple man, not very good at talking, and just kept thanking him with a blush on his face.

Gu Shi was just as honest and simple, standing beside him, her face flushed, unable to utter a word.

Fortunately, the second daughter-in-law of the Su family was very eloquent and spoke with great enthusiasm, unable to stop.

"...When my daughter Qian was born, a Taoist priest told her fate. That priest had an otherworldly air about him, and he looked like a highly accomplished person. He said that Qian was a person with great fortune, and whoever came into contact with her would be blessed..."

The villagers in the surrounding area all agreed with what the second son's wife said.

That's right. Back in the countryside, they couldn't even get enough to eat. Thanks to Miss Su, they were able to move into the county town, drink the free porridge provided by Gu's, and even earn money working in the lard and soap workshop.

Now every household has some spare money, all thanks to Miss Su.

Fang Cheng's mother, Madam Sun, hid in the crowd, her heart filled with intense jealousy.

Unexpectedly, Su Bing was promoted to captain not long after becoming a junior officer. At this rate of promotion, he will soon become a general.

If my son hadn't broken off his engagement with Su Yatou, he might have become an official without having to take the imperial examinations.

My son is only a Xiucai (a scholar who passed the lowest level of the imperial examinations) now. He will need a lot of money to take the provincial and imperial examinations in the future. I don't know where he will get that money. It's really worrying me to death.

Right now, even food and rent are becoming problems, sigh!

Fang Yingxue tugged at Sun's sleeve and said pitifully, "Mom, could you buy me some skin cream? My hands are all cracked from the cold."

Mrs. Sun looked annoyed. "Go away, go away. If you want to buy skincare cream, go earn the money yourself."

Look at how capable other people's daughters are, and then look at your own daughter, and suddenly you don't like her anymore.

The old patriarch of the Zhang family stood outside the gate of Gu's Restaurant and also heard what his second daughter-in-law said. He especially believed in the saying about great fortune.

Because the second son's wife is General Su's aunt, she must have been present when General Su was born, so what she says must be true.

As it turns out, General Su was indeed very lucky.

The Zhang family has already benefited from General Su's good fortune. His eldest grandnephew is now General Su's strategist. Thanks to General Su's good fortune, he has already risen to the rank of a seventh-grade officer.

Since the Zhang clan members followed General Su, the old clan chief developed the habit of summoning the clan members for speeches, and he did so very frequently.

That evening, he gathered the outstanding young people of the clan together and gave them a speech.

"General Su is a man of great fortune. You must follow General Su closely in battle and strive to earn more merit for the Zhang family."

"My Zhang family will surely produce many officials in the future, and will definitely enjoy great prosperity for thousands of years to come."

The future of the Zhang family depends on General Su!

After the young members of the clan left, the old clan chief offered incense to the ancestral tablets and prayed devoutly, "Ancestors, please bless General Su! As long as General Su is alive, the future of our Zhang clan is secure."

Su Qianqian returned to Gu's Restaurant from the military camp for lunch and found a customer sitting in the corner drinking and crying. The grown man was crying so miserably.

"Oh, what a pity. I spent all my money and transported ten truckloads of brown sugar back, hoping to make a fortune during the New Year. But I was cheated. Half of the brown sugar I bought was mixed with dirt."

"Sigh, who would want to eat brown sugar that's half-mixed with soil? It's a pity we have to throw it away."

"I've worked hard in business for over ten years, and all the money I earned has been lost on brown sugar. I deserve to die."

Master Zhu, who was sitting at the same table as Zhang Daliang, comforted him, saying, "Don't be so pessimistic. As long as you're alive, there's hope for a turnaround. Just consider it a lesson learned, and be sure to keep your eyes open next time you buy goods."

Su Qianqian: Sugar? Sugar was very expensive in this era, so losing ten cartloads of brown sugar would indeed be a huge loss.

She walked over and said, "Sir, I can help you separate the sugar from the soil."

As a time traveler, Su Qianqian knew that the mud adsorption method could be used to make white sugar from brown sugar, and that mixing soil into the sugar would not affect its quality at all.

The merchant was overjoyed and quickly stood up to introduce himself, "General Su, my name is Zhang Daliang, and I am a distant cousin of Military Advisor Zhang."

Master Zhu, who was sitting at the same table, advised Zhang Daliang: "Don't listen to that girl. Soil and brown sugar are almost the same color. No matter how many people you use, you can't separate them. Zhang Daliang, don't let yourself be scammed again."

To claim that they can separate soil and brown sugar is simply delusional!

Even if a young girl is good at fighting, she can't be good at everything, especially separating brown sugar and soil, which is harder than climbing to heaven.

Master Zhu and Zhang Daliang are in the same business, and have been in the brown sugar business for many years. If they were easily separated, how could he not know that! This young girl is too good at talking big.

Zhang Daliang said, "I believe her because she is the omnipotent General Su."

Besides, the brown sugar is already ruined. Let General Su try it; even if he fails, there will be no loss.

A day later, Su Qianqian showed the white sugar she had made to Zhang Daliang, who was completely dumbfounded.

Because what General Su showed him was white sugar.

In the Great Qi Dynasty, white sugar was four times the price of brown sugar because the secret recipe for making white sugar was held by the royal merchant family. As a result, white sugar was monopolized by the royal merchant family, and the price was set entirely by the royal family.

Zhang Daliang knelt down excitedly, "General Su, thank you so much, you are my second parents."

When he got home last night, his whole family scolded him for being stupid.

He had originally planned to end his life if General Su failed to separate the brown sugar from the soil.

Ten years of hard-earned money, all gone in one day—no one could bear that.

But he never expected that General Su would be so capable, saving his ten cartloads of sugar.

General Su is indeed a god-like being!

"General Su, this is equivalent to selling it for four times the price. How about this, I'll only keep a quarter of the sugar, and the rest can be considered as a reward for your hard work, General Su."

Su Qianqian was a very straightforward person and never wasted words. "Zhang Daliang, you don't need to take a quarter. How about this, we'll each take half of the sugar we make."

Su Qianqian suddenly had so much candy, so she decided to make some rice candy to give to her employees as a holiday bonus.

In the eyes of the people of Daqi, eating sweets during the New Year is very auspicious, meaning that the whole year will be sweet. Unfortunately, sweets are too expensive and many families cannot afford them.

So giving the employees candy will definitely make them very happy.

Having traveled to this place, she hopes to do her best to send a token of her support to the people who cherish her.

There is no shortage of rice in the city; all you need to do is make an old-fashioned popcorn machine to pop rice.

By boiling sugar into a syrup, you can bind the rice puffs together, and then cut them into pieces to make rice puff candy.

Su Qianqian went to the blacksmith's shop and handed the blueprints to the shop assistant.

The shop assistants were overjoyed to see that the guest who came in was General Su.

"General Su, rest assured, we will definitely make this popcorn pot as soon as possible."

The blueprints provided by General Su are incredibly clear, clearer than any blueprints provided by any other guest before.

The workers took the blueprints and worked incredibly hard, making two popcorn pots overnight. Once finished, they were immediately delivered to Gu's Restaurant.

"General Su, how do you think this pot is made?"

Su Qianqian carefully examined it inside and out. "Not bad, it should work. I'll try it out and see. If it doesn't work, I'll ask you to improve it."
