The Story of a Young Man Who Traveled Through Time and Space to Farm

Chapter 19

After eating, they began to pack frozen tofu, water tofu, tofu puffs, and tofu skin into the baskets and sacks they brought.

After packing the things, Zhang Wuliang sent them to the door and said, "If you can't get back at noon, go to a food store with Ergou to eat something hot. Don't freeze yourself in this cold weather. It's not worth it if you catch a cold."

He didn't say much about how to sell the things. I believe Zhang Zhenwen knows it himself.

"I know," Zhang Zhenwen said as he put the shoulder pole on his shoulder, "Then we'll go first."

"Well, go ahead, be careful on the road." Zhang Wuliang watched them leave, then turned and entered the yard.

In the yard, Zhang Zhenzong was rolling up sacks of soybeans. Seeing him coming, he hurriedly said, "Some families in Xiahe Village didn't collect yesterday. I'll go again today and should be able to come back before lunch to help you."

Zhang Wuliang nodded: "Okay, be careful."

In the morning, Zhang Wuliang was grinding beans and making tofu by himself.

Although the efficiency was a bit low, he still did some work. At noon, Zhang Zhenzong came back. The family had a meal together, rested for a while, and continued to work.

The days in winter are short. When it was a little dark in the evening, Zhang Zhenwen and Zhang Ergou came back with excitement.

As soon as the two entered the door, they saw Zhang Zhenzong grinding tofu in the yard. "Brother! Brother!" The two shouted excitedly.

Zhang Zhenzong looked up when he heard the voice: "Huh? Why did you come back just now?"

Then seeing them empty-handed and full of joy, he couldn't help but ask: "Have you sold all the tofu?"

Zhang Zhenwen's joy was beyond words: "Yes, and we brought back some good news." Zhang Ergou nodded wildly on the side.

Zhang Zhenzong was infected by their mood and raised his mouth and asked: "What good news?"

Zhang Zhenwen looked around and didn't see anyone else, so he said: "Let's go in and talk!"

"Okay" Zhang Zhenzong thought about it and let go of the putter in his hand and went into the kitchen with them.

The four people in the kitchen heard their conversation early. When they saw someone coming in, Zhang Zhenyong hurriedly asked: "Second brother, what is the good news?"

Zhang Zhenwen smiled and said: "This is a long story..."

Zhang Zhenzong's face darkened: "Short it." There was still a pile of beans outside that hadn't been ground, so he didn't have time to waste with him.

"Ahem, okay." Zhang Zhenwen put away the lewd smile on his face and began to talk seriously about what happened before.

It turned out that Zhang Zhenwen and Zhang Ergou, carrying tofu, entered the town and found the place where they usually sold baskets.

He laid out the things one by one and started to shout: "Tofu for sale, fresh tofu, fresh tofu, frozen tofu, tofu skin, tofu puff, many varieties, come and buy!"

When the people passing by heard him, they were very curious about the tofu puff and tofu puff, so they came over and asked: "What are these tofu puff and tofu skin? They sound like they are made of tofu?"

When Zhang Ergou heard someone asking, he quickly said: "This aunt is really amazing. She can tell it right away. Isn't it made of tofu?"

After that, he pointed to the tofu skin in front of him and introduced: "Look, this is tofu skin. This tofu skin looks like paper, white and tough, and chewier than ordinary tofu. You can buy it and eat it in strips or slices, or tie it into a knot and cook it with meat. The taste is simply amazing."
