Zhao Zhan heaved a sigh of relief.

The workshops were now managed by Zhao Zhan, and each workshop had a manager. Other than the seasoning workshop, which was personally managed by Zhao Zhan, the other three workshops were managed by Yang Dashan, Gu Xiaoyu, and Yang Maozhong.

As for Yang Lizheng, Zhao Zhan gave him a monthly salary and asked him to build a good relationship with the surrounding village chiefs.

In this way, if they were going to promote two seasons of planting or recruiting people from the outside, things would be much easier with Yang Lizheng as the contact in the middle.

Winning over the village chief was equivalent to having a certain influence in that village.

As for Yang Dashan, he and Yang Maozhong had arranged for two people to keep watch every day. In addition, Li Miao often got up at night from nausea. He must have stayed up all night with her, so he couldn’t hold on.

Zhao Zhan had just reflected on it and decided to give him and Yang Maozhong separate breaks in the future to ensure that they could have adequate rest.

“You’re not going back?”

Zhao Zhan was taken aback when he heard Doctor Sun speak. “I’ll go back and take a look at the situation. I’ll tell Jiaojiao about what happened here when I’m back. Otherwise, I’m afraid she’ll be worried.”

“Alright, then we’ll go back together.”

Zhao Zhan and Doctor Sun returned home together, just in time for Madam Qin to finish preparing lunch.

“Zhao Zhan, is that you?” Yue Jiaojiao’s eyes brightened. “I was just about to get the lunchbox and pack the food with Madam Qin to bring to you and Doctor Sun.”

“Wagler and the others have left. The workshop is fine now.”

Zhao Zhan first went to wash his hands and face, then came back to hold Yue Jiaojiao’s hand. “You’ve worked hard today.”

His lover was the smartest person in the world. She knew everything, but she was willing to stay behind him.

It was all thanks to his lover that he was where he was today.

“It wasn’t that hard. I didn’t expect the things I’ve read before to actually be useful,” Yue Jiaojiao said with a smile. “I’ve found that book and put it in the study. You can learn it when you’re free in the future.”

“In this case, if you deal with westerners in the future, they won’t dare to scold you in their language in front of you.”

His lover’s face was full of smiles, and Zhao Zhan’s heart warmed.

Madam Qin just happened to serve the last dish on the table when she overheard the conversation. “What do those people look like? Yang Lizheng didn’t explain clearly when he came. If I had known that they were foreigners, I would have gone over to take a look.”

“They’ll be back in ten days. I’ll let you know when, so you can go and take a look.”

“That’s good. My lady, please teach me a few words to say in the next two days. We can’t let those barbarians laugh at us.”

“Of course.” Yue Jiaojiao nodded in agreement. “I’ll teach you and Doctor Sun too.”

Doctor Sun, who had buried his head in the meal, snorted when he heard this. The corners of his lips, which were covered by the bowl, curled up slightly, but he did not say anything about not wanting to learn.

After the meal, Zhao Zhan brought up the matter of Wagler wanting to buy some brine.

“It’s pretty good.”

Zhao Zhan was sitting on the recliner, and Yue Jiaojiao was lying lazily in his arms with her eyes closed. “He wants to do something for his hometown. We should support him.”

“But…” Yue Jiaojiao pulled on the clothes on Zhao Zhan’s chest and rubbed her face against it, finding a more comfortable position. “But we can’t sell the recipe we have. It’s not like they can replicate it and only give them brine without tofu.”

Zhao Zhan followed his lover’s train of thought and thought carefully.

“So you’re saying…”

His lover had told him three or four kinds of tofu recipes before, but he had been busy during this time and hadn’t thought of this.

“That’s right, we can use the one with vinegar instead.” Yue Jiaojiao nodded like a cat in his arms. “The recipe for making vinegar is in my head. Vinegar is both a seasoning and a preservative, and it can preserve tofu for a long time. Wagler won’t lose out on it.”

As for the recipe for the brine, who knew if that old fox, Shang, would also know about it if they sold it to Wagler? They weren’t as rich as Shang, so it wasn’t time for them to fight head-on.

“I’ll write you the recipe for making vinegar by tonight. You can study it.”

Yue Jiaojiao’s head started to dip, and Zhao Zhan hurriedly held her chin to help her sleep more soundly.

His lover was in a daze and tried not to fall asleep.

“Zhao Zhan, did you know that westerners love to eat barbecue? You can improve the seasoning recipe you usually give me to roast pig trotters.

“We’ll wait for Wagler to come back in ten days. At that time, get a lamb and have Lizheng find a spacious place in the village to light a bonfire. We’ll treat Wagler to a whole roast lamb, and he’ll definitely be more courteous.”

Even Yue Jiaojiao herself was a little greedy with this business proposal.

“Alright, I’ll listen to you.”

After he finished speaking, he didn’t hear his lover’s reply for a long time. Zhao Zhan lowered his head again and realized that Yue Jiaojiao had already fallen asleep.

He pulled the thick blanket beside the recliner over Yue Jiaojiao’s body and closed his eyes.

It wasn’t necessary for him to work in the workshops right now, so he might as well take advantage of this time to accompany his lover to sleep for a while.

Madam Qin had just arrived at the door and heard that there was no sound in the room. After thinking for a while, she didn’t enter and directly closed the door. Then, she quietly returned to her room.

When Yue Jiaojiao woke up, she realized that Zhao Zhan was still under her.

She had been in the same position the whole time, and her hands and feet were a little numb from her sleep. The moment she moved, she felt the person under her suddenly move.

“Oh…”

Zhao Zhan’s voice still sounded a little tired, and his eyes were still half-open when he pulled Yue Jiaojiao, who was about to get up, back into his arms. “Are you cold?”

His body was burning hot, but he still pulled the blanket and covered Yue Jiaojiao’s body stubbornly.

“I’m not cold, I’m hot.” Yue Jiaojiao was helpless, but her face was full of smiles. “Zhao Zhan, open your eyes.”

Zhao Zhan suddenly opened his eyes. When he saw Yue Jiaojiao’s mischievous expression, he stood up and carried her to the bed beside him.

The blanket was cold.

Before Yue Jiaojiao could say anything, Zhao Zhan had already made her lie on his body.

...

He grabbed the blanket and wrapped it tightly around them. “You won’t be able to escape now.”

Seeing that he was really sleepy and his eyes were bloodshot, Yue Jiaojiao couldn’t bear to disturb him anymore and just lay in his arms obediently.

She felt that she had a luxurious life with Zhao Zhan every day, and her life seemed to be only left with three things — eating, reading, and sleeping.

As if he had heard Yue Jiaojiao’s inner thoughts, Zhao Zhan turned around and pulled her into his arms. “Jiaojiao, I can’t sleep if you don’t lie down with me.”

He had already gotten used to his lover’s presence by his side.

It had never been Yue Jiaojiao who couldn’t leave the warmth of his embrace.

It was because her existence had long been as important to him as breathing.

In his drowsy state, Zhao Zhan felt that he had forgotten to mention something important.
