Chapter 010: Mastery Through Daily Practice

However, even if money is needed, it must wait until after the harvest on the farm to be discussed

The livelihood of the old scholar in the private school primarily relies on the tuition fees from students, so it is evident that the errand boy, Jia Quan, is certainly not valued by the private school teacher

The next generation is represented by characters with the "grass" radical, such as Jia Lan, Jia Rong, Jia Qiang, Jia Qin, and Jia Yun

Moreover, from the name alone, it is evident that Jia Quan, even if he is truly a member of the Jia family, is undoubtedly a side branch of the side branch of the Jia family; otherwise, his father would not have given him the character 'Quan'.

Instead, the 17 or 18 pounds of wheat harvested yesterday, along with the remaining seeds after sowing, were crushed together in the space, resulting in whole wheat flour with a somewhat grayish-black color

After finishing two fist-sized steamed buns in just a few bites, Quan Ge's impression of Shi Zhongkui immediately rose several notches.

Gifting 3 or 5 pounds to friends and relatives can still be justified if one is fortunate enough to acquire it

If one were to be of the same generation as Jia Baoyu, their name would undoubtedly include the character "Wang" on the side, such as Jia Zhu and Jia Lian

A good stack of silver may weigh a few taels, while a poor one may only be worth a few dozen wen per bundle, yet the effectiveness will still be so lacking that it makes one question the meaning of life

He reached out to pull Brother Quan in, and Shi Zhongkui asked him to sit for a moment

After taking a clean bite, the fragrance lingers on the lips and teeth

In comparison, during this era without fertilizers and scientific seed cultivation, a peach weighing at most 2 or 3 taels produced by the farm is undoubtedly of the highest quality.

Unfortunately, the more vibrant it is, the harder it is to take out in winter

Moreover, it is surprising that although the peach tree is only 2 meters tall and about two fingers in thickness, it has still produced 20 peaches of similar size, varying in color from green to red.

Shi Zhongkui immediately thought of planting tea leaves, spices, or commonly used medicinal herbs that are only found in the south

Finally, plant the 19 peach pits in the farm

Even with a lifetime of reading under the guidance of the ethnology teacher Jia Dairu, he is still merely a scholar

Jia Quan is indeed a relative of the Jia family, residing in the back street of Rongguo Mansion, but his father must have passed away quite early, and the family has been living in poor conditions

After sending Brother Quan away, he sat by the stone table in the courtyard and began to ponder.

Merely a Ma Daopo almost cursed Jia Baoyu and Wang Xifeng to death; if she were to spend half a year or a year cultivating, her methods would surely be stronger than those of Ma Daopo

Whether it is cultivating the Tao or studying for the imperial examination, money is indispensable

Without answering questions, one is completely unaware of having been led into revealing quite a bit of information.

Since the Xue family has all appeared, Lin Daiyu must have also entered the Rongguo Mansion

Therefore, his mother has a very poor impression of the Jia family.

The situation of the second Lin Daiyu is unknown, but the Xue family has already arrived in the capital, as this fellow's reputation for being a big spender and his reckless behavior have made quite a name for him among the Jia family members

One hammers at home with a stone hammer, cooking a mixture of wheat bran and partially crushed wheat grains in a pot to eat

However, since the old scholar has disregarded his own reputation, it implies that if he is not given some benefits, there is a possibility that he truly has a familial relationship with the county magistrate

Upon seeing Shi Zhongkui enter with 4 steamed buns, Brother Quan could not help but swallow his saliva

After the sun had moved to the west, Shi Zhongkui first harvested all the wheat, yielding 190 jin of wheat

Otherwise, the rice transported from the south to the capital would not be several times more expensive, or even one to two times more expensive.

Brother Quan probably hasn't had breakfast yet. Why not have a bite here? It can also be a way to thank you for coming over early to inform me about the reporting matter.

It can be affirmed that there indeed exists a family of the Jia clan in the capital, which boasts two dukes and marquises

However, these are not the main points

Private schools also require a certain level of reputation; when encountering a studious student, most teachers will regard them with special attention

After running to six or seven places in a row, not only am I exhausted, but the little food I ate in the morning has long been digested

Of course, it is also possible that the concubine does not have the qualifications, or that someone is unwilling to allow it and cannot afford the payment

Unbeknownst to the passage of time, it is now half past afternoon, and the 19 fields of wheat are on the verge of ripening.

In ancient times, items such as steamed buns, stuffed buns, and flatbreads were all referred to as "mianbing" (flour cakes), and many impoverished families, in order to save money, even omitted the process of grinding the flour

Continue to practice the art of swift movement, I feel that I can definitely complete 100 meters in under 8 seconds. After having lunch, I will use the cultivation of spiritual energy instead of taking a nap.

One must also take the county examination in Daxing County, and the old man is unable to fulfill the promise of passing the county examination, but the likelihood of adverse outcomes is significantly high

If the Jia family members do not go to the clan school to study, why is that

As he slowly finished the two somewhat difficult-to-swallow steamed buns, Shi Zhongkui had basically asked all the questions he wanted to.

While waiting for the steamed buns to cook, Shi Zhongkui suddenly had a thought.

Then collect another 20 peaches weighing between 4 and 6 taels

Upon thinking of this, Shi Zhongkui couldn't help but smile and shake his head. Moreover, even if Brother Quan were truly a member of the Jia family, it would still be difficult to determine who is scheming against whom.

Moreover, the degree of crushing is not high, almost similar to the coarse grain cakes I remember eating in my childhood, and then it is made into round flatbreads the size of a fist

With a single thought, 20 peaches, which are considered quite large in this era, gradually lost more than half of their moisture and transformed into dried fruit

When thinking about transplanting to his future forest or inferior fields, Shi Zhongkui instinctively thought that he should at least keep the first peach tree in the space farm

In other words, regardless of what is planted, it is highly likely to yield a harvest every day, with a single output of 10 jin.

This statement is likely something the old scholar intentionally said to himself, perhaps to deceive himself out of his money or those twenty fans

However, selling dried fruits is not as troublesome.

Moreover, it seems that his academic performance is not impressive either

Adding a half-grown child will kill me; children in this age group are always hungry.

Upon hearing that there was food, Jia Quan could not help but hesitate

What Shi Zhongkui is most concerned about now is the rumor that the county magistrate of Daxing County is actually related to the old scholar of the private school

Moreover, the Jia family studies also require the payment of a tuition fee

Suddenly, he felt that it should not be the case

Professional supplies such as talismans vary greatly in terms of price and quality

Even merely going to Suzhou and Hangzhou to purchase silk, bringing it back in space, can yield a profit of 20 to 30 percent

Since this fellow is named Jia Quan, could he possibly be a member of the Jia family from the capital's Eight Directions?

Twenty taels a year, compared to the six taels that the old scholar earns in a year, there is no need to consider it at all; it is certain that one will go to the private school outside to study

The products from the south, just the shipping costs alone, are enough to make them considerably more expensive than those from the north

Merely considering the talismans, good vermilion is not inexpensive

In the future, it is possible that it will grow into a celestial tree resembling a true pan peach.

... ...

Commonly used implies high sales, and it is unlikely that anyone will pay attention

Then, during the appropriate seasonal period, a portion of the peaches mixed with those produced in the real world will be sold

However, if one intends to sell in large quantities, one must at least wait until they have purchased the land and hills in reality, and attempt to plant the peach trees grown in the space farm in the mountains

This took out the remaining peach, which was at least 6 taels in weight and larger than his own fist

Plump and juicy, yet crisp and refreshing, it is surprisingly more delicious than modern peaches that have been cultivated through selective breeding

Early in the morning, I went to the private school, but because my tuition was the least among more than a dozen children, I was sent by the teacher to notify students similar to Shi Zhongkui.

Shi Zhongkui observed that although he was slightly sweating on his forehead, his attire was thin, indicating that he was not living well

Went to the kitchen by oneself, yet did not use any white flour
