The first half of what He Xinyin said after snowflakes fell from the gloomy sky was finally fulfilled.

Auspicious snow indicates a good harvest.

This was not a heavy snow that lasted for a long time and eventually caused disasters. The snow only accumulated a thin layer on the roof and in the fields, meeting people's demand for snow during the New Year, but did not cause much damage at all. Except for some poor people whose roofs were too dilapidated, they deeply felt the helplessness of the snow falling into water and leaking after the snow turned into water, the rest was harmless. Wang Fulin spent more than a month in Xiyuan. After this heavy snow day, the first thing he did was to beg for alms at various families, including the Xu family on Doushan Street, and then took out a sum of money and put it together. Starting from the 23rd of the 12th lunar month, he set up a shed and dumplings.

The reason for dumplings, not porridge, was inspired by the source of dumplings. According to legend, dumplings were added by Zhang Zhongjing in the late Han Dynasty and various cold-removing medicinal materials to the dough, making them into Jiaoer and donations to people to prevent frostbite, but gradually evolved into a food that everyone likes to eat. Northerners will make dumplings every Chinese New Year, but not in the south, especially ordinary poor people, which is not so easy to eat mutton dumplings during the Chinese New Year. Therefore, even if there are only two dumplings per person, there are still a long queue, and there are even many of them who are still from a poor family but are greedy for small profits.

However, from the first day, people who were happy to eat mutton dumplings on the spot found that this was really the sweet-eared one used by Zhang Zhongjing to relieve the cold, and it was definitely not the dumplings they usually ate!

Because it's so spicy, let alone after eating two, I started sweating on my forehead after half of it. After eating two, I felt sweating all over my body!

So, at first, it was just the poor and those who were greedy for cheapness to line up to get two dumplings, but one spread to ten thousand. Some people said that ginseng was added to the dumplings, some said that deer antler was added to the dumplings, and some mysteriously said that the dumplings were added to the dumplings to promote certain functions... For a moment, the long queue in front of the dumpling stall increased by more than 100%! Even though Wang Fulin personally stood up to refute the rumors and told everyone that in addition to peppercorns and a few Chinese herbal medicines to remove cold, a chili pepper was added to drive away cold and dampness. There was no rumor, and it was still impossible to avoid someone coming to try it out.

After all, although Huizhou in later generations is not as good as Sichuan, Hunan, and Hubei, it is quite spicy. Just as peppercorns can be found in local rice shops and many mountain goods shops, people's curiosity about peppers in this cold weather is naturally in the cold weather. Therefore, when Wang Fulin had no choice but to announce that mutton dumplings were not available, if you want to taste the taste of chili, you can choose the same free mutton soup. The people who were queuing up finally got some of them. The villagers who were temporarily hired by Wang Fulin from Songming Mountain Village to do things and were sweating profusely.

Even doing good deeds can make a sensation, and he is worthy of being a little official Wang!

Because of the past few months, one thing after another. And he also took the annual exam. Even Cheng Naixuan remembers the dishes that Wang Fulin cooked himself and said that he wanted to open a restaurant. But he was too busy to get busy? So, when he heard that Wang Fulin had turned into mutton soup this time, and increased the publicity of peppers, he was shocked and learned that Wang Fulin had returned to Wang's house on the back street of the county. He ran over and asked directly: "Hey. You are giving it to others for free with such a big hand. How can that basket of peppers withstand such failure? Don't worry about eating up all the food and leaving the stock!"

"It's better to have fun alone than to have fun. If Brother Wang Qi had not planted it on Songmingshan, would you think I would give people something to eat like this?" Wang Fulin asked with a smile, and then said, "I have to come to my house more during the Chinese New Year. My sister-in-law of the Liu family is now better than blue and will make a lot of good dishes. Since she knows how to plant it, she can be supplied continuously. In order to make everyone familiar, what is the food for a few days? This is the same as when I bought a walnut before... It's a pity that the peppers are not the kind of wild mountain pepper this time, otherwise the wild mountain pepper would be fried with shredded beef..."

Seeing Wang Fulin talking, he was fascinated, Cheng Naixuan almost didn't let out the water, and finally he interrupted indignantly: "Hey, don't get my greed. The problem is that you arouse everyone's hot food, what should I do next? Let me calculate for you. Lin Muxuan wants people, Yidian wants people, Xiyuan Yashe and Luye Bookstore are still being renovated, and they are not going to need people soon, but the gap will be huge in the future. You are making people curious, if you want to open a restaurant, where can you find people? I don't have talents in this industry at home."

"It's not that you have to go through everything yourself, you can cooperate with me." Wang Fulin smiled and looked at the agitated Master Cheng, and said slowly, "You forgot that boss of the Zhuangyuan Building, Hong Renwu,? He had only charged us how much money did he charge for our She County Celebrity Conference? This time he rewarded him and asked him to carry a load. Let's take some money to invest in his Zhuangyuan Building and let him launch a brand new dish. Isn't that great? The chefs there are famous in the entire Huizhou. Not to mention anything else, the stinky mandarin fish is the most famous in the Zhuangyuan Building. If you add a handful of chili..."

"Stop talking!"

Cheng Naixuan made a quick decision and could not listen to Wang Fulin's words. He turned around and left the house without saying a word. Before leaving, he left the only sentence: "I'll go find Hong Renwu!"

So, before the 28th day of the 11th lunar month, Cheng Naixuan and Cheng discussed his last business of the year with Wang Fulin. He invested in the 11th lunar month for 2,000 silver, and the unlimited supply of fresh peppers, and ate 40% of the shares of the 11th lunar month. The reason why 40% is not 21th lunar month is not that Hong Renwu is reluctant to let his family business, but that Wang Cheng and both felt that they should not be too much. When this business was announced on the 29th day of the 11th lunar month, Wang Fulin's reputation as the God of Wealth overshadowed the disaster star for the first time.

Although the Cheng family in Huangjiawu, Ye County Zun, and even Mrs. Fang, the old man Xu of Doushan Street, invited him to spend New Year's Eve together, think about his own population, and for this big holiday, Wang Fulin did not even stay in the two-and-a-half-entered courtyard of the county back street lent him by Wang Daoguan. Instead, he chose to go back to Songming Mountain one day earlier, on the 29th of the twelfth lunar month. Of course, he was also unlucky to invite Mr. Ke, but Mr. Ke and Mr. Fang did not stop during the New Year. He was asked to debate by several leading figures of the New Ancient Society. He had already left, so he was happy to live by himself.

As for the old soldiers of Qi Liang and Qi's army, because many of them brought their families over, a large group of people were enjoying themselves in the spacious old house that Wang Fulin lent to them.

Although Wang Fulin has not been back recently, he had sent a message saying that he would go back to his hometown for the New Year. The tenant servants said that he had not said that he had sent all kinds of holiday food, from all kinds of cakes to wax New Year goods, to fresh vegetables, and later Wang Qi had to go out on behalf of the owner to tell everyone that they could not eat it for a month or two, and they had just stopped. When Wang Fulin and others came back, they saw the New Year stuff piled up in the yard like a hill. The same was true when they came back to live two times, but now it is the New Year, everyone's hearts are naturally particularly warm. Wang Fulin rubbed his horse riding on the road and said with a smile.

"Fortunately, we brought a lot of things from the city, otherwise how could we repay the favor from the villagers?"

The house is still an old house and has not yet been renovated. It is even more cramped than before in the city. People who eat are not as busy and crowded as before in the city, but even Wang Fulin thinks that Songming Mountain is the root. When he followed the Wang clans to worship their ancestors in the ancestral hall, he deeply experienced this. In the cold wind on New Year's Eve, the Wang clan's ancestral hall was opened in Songming Mountain. The clan leader Wang Daohan took the lead. The clan members carried various tributes in, kowtowed to worship their ancestors, and then dispersed to have a reunion dinner. Each family returned to their own family. It was time to officially visit relatives on the morning of the first day of the lunar month.

Wang Fulin had no psychological burden at all when he had no parents' New Year's Eve dinner. It was definitely not that he was unfilial, he had never seen him before, and he didn't even have the chance to cultivate his relationship. When he suddenly appeared, he didn't know how to deal with the two elders... Although both of them were not yet forty, they were not old at all. Wang Qishao tried his best to cook the dishes on the table, which not only satisfied Wang Fulin who was not happy, but also took care of the tastes of others. Even Jinbao and Wang Fulin gave him a small glass of wine, and Qiu Feng was drunk. As for Wang Fulin himself, after the rice wine he brewed went down a large pot, he even knocked on his bowl of "Congratulations".

After watching the New Year overnight, firecrackers were bursting. Wang Wujing even set off fireworks on behalf of Wang Daokun. When the bright fireworks bloomed in the night sky, the children who came out to watch after the New Year's Eve dinner were cheering. Xixinan Village opposite Fengle River also set off fireworks on the empty fields. The two places looked across the river, and it was a nighttime sky where everyone laughed.

The lively New Year atmosphere lasted until the Lantern Festival approached, and it came to an end. However, most of the people who had the conditions were preparing to go to the city to watch the lanterns. For the Lantern Festival, Ye Junyao, who had been in office for almost a year, personally visited wealthy families everywhere. In order to beg for the lanterns, the county towns of the city were all decorated with lanterns, which was even more grand than in previous years. Wang Fulin, who had been comfortable in the countryside for a comfortable New Year, had to take his whole family back to the city. First, it was rare to have a curfew during the Lantern Festival. He had to take a bunch of children in his family to stroll around, and second,... he had not yet celebrated the New Year... so many families in the city.

So, when the New Year of the fifth year of Longqing was over, Wang Fulin, who had had enough rest and had spared enough, was finally taken to Ye Junyao again.

Although it was the twelfth lunar month and the Chinese New Year, the autumn grain discount this year has been 80% of the silver. In previous years, this was naturally a good achievement, but after all, the summer tax was collected this year. Ye Junyao certainly hoped to hand over an excellent tax report in the first year of his tenure. Now, the deadline for autumn grain is approaching, so he certainly has to play the most important card.
