Chapter 5 Believe Miracles Create Miracles

s the younger brother of Wang Gui, he might as well try to save him and see if he could be revived.Zhao Fu Gui, however, frowned slightly: "With injuries this severe, there's no hope of saving him, is...Through the cracks in the windowpane, they saw, under the moonlight, that frail figure struggling to roll a heavy millstone.

Sweat trickled down his cheeks, and he panted heavily.

Perhaps we should go help him!

"But aren't all these things he does useless"

"Let him go at it alone."

"Sister, what about you"

Someone looked at Li Yuhua.

The rest also looked at her.

"Me"

In the darkness, Li Yuyao quietly wiped away the tears from the corner of her eyes and stared straight out the window at that solitary figure. She shook her head.

"Neither do I believe he can create miracles."

But...

I want to help him.

Because there are some things, even if you know it's difficult, you have to try!

>Only by trying it will you know.

When she received the world from her father, how could she not understand that it would be difficult for a woman to become emperor.

But she still went ahead and did it.

At least, don't leave yourself with regrets.

Outside, Yang Lin was washing a grinding stone when he saw the door open and women come out of the house.

He smiled.

……

Early the next morning.

A wisp of smoke drifted in the air, and Yang Lin's courtyard was already bustling with activity.

Each woman had her own task: cooking, grinding beans, making soy milk…

As the saying goes, the three most difficult jobs in the world are rowing a boat, blacksmithing, and making tofu.

Six people took turns grinding the grain, the women still sweating profusely, panting heavily.

"What is Yang Lin's family doing"

"Let's go and have a look."

Some villagers who got up early noticed the commotion in Yang Lin's courtyard and came over to take a look.

Lack of entertainment, everyone likes to join in the fun, and soon there were quite a few people gathered outside his door.

When people saw women grinding soaked beans into a paste and filtering out the pulp with gauze, their eyes widened in amazement.

"Absurd!"

"This is so extravagant!"

"Such a fine bean, ruined like this."

"Turned into a paste, can this still be eaten"

An elder couldn't help but shout: "Young people, beans, even if you want to grind them, you can only fry them until they are cooked, grind them into bean flour, and then soak it for eating. You soaked the beans before grinding them, which is wrong!"

"Such a ruckus, you'll starve to death sooner or later!"

"Waste of food."

Pots of cooked soy milk are poured into the vat.

Under Yang Lin's direction, Xiao Qi and Xiao Ba stirred the soy milk in the vat while slowly adding "stone water" from the bucket.

Soon, the soy milk began to coagulate, taking on a brain-like texture.

The villagers frowned deeply and shook their heads in disappointment.

Even the women, looking at the unformed tofu pudding in the jar, sighed with disappointment.

Place the solidified tofu pudding into a mold, cover it with a cloth filter, and press down on a wooden board. The soy milk will slowly drain out of the mold.

The commotion here quickly attracted the village head, Zhao Fugui.

Zhao Fugui was also taken aback.

"Yang Lin, what are you doing"

"What a ruckus!"

Aren't you really afraid of starving to death Stop right now!

Zhao Fuguai was so anxious that he slapped his thigh.

Yet Yang Lin smiled calmly.

To be honest with you, last night I dreamt of an old immortal who visited me and taught me how to make a dish that even the immortals in heaven eat using these beans. It's called tofu.

"Uncle Three, you're here just in time. Everyone has been watching for ages. Today, I'm going to open your eyes and let you try something new!"

Soon, the cloth covering was lifted, revealing the white, jade-like tofu inside. It was fresh, tender, and smooth.

Yang Lin cut these tofu into ten-centimeter square blocks, took out one block, and put it on a plate.

As Yang Lin moved, everyone's eyes were fixed on the square, pure white block, staring in disbelief.

"What's going on It was still liquid just a moment ago, how did it turn into a solid"

"Could this really be food from the gods"

"Never heard of it, never seen it!"

All onlookers were dumbfounded.

The women were all dumbfounded. This white, tender thing was so clean and smooth, shaped like jade fat, and it even emitted a faint fragrance. It was simply unlike anything from this world.

"Come, my lady, try it first."

Yang Lin brought the tofu to Li Yuyao.

Li Yuxiang took it and frowned.

Although tofu might look good, she held out no hope for the taste of it.

After all, it's made with cheap beans. What good is it even if it looks nice

This is!

However, the moment she took a bite, the tender and smooth texture surprised her.

A subtle, unheard-of fragrance burst forth on her palate.

Li Yuxiang was shocked.

Different positions offer completely different perspectives on a problem; she sees it much more deeply than anyone else.

This item is not only stunning in its craftsmanship, but it also breaks new ground by creating a completely new type of food that tastes great!

And all of this…

Could it be that he just casually, using stones and water, beat it out

Looking at Yang Lin again, her gaze was filled with surprise and deep curiosity.

This scholar has some talent.

Yang Lin offered some more for the villagers to taste.

Everyone who has tasted it is amazed and praises it.

"In my fifty-plus years, I have never tasted anything so delicious."

"This is truly heavenly food."

Although it's just tofu, in this era of food scarcity, anything new and unique is truly astonishing.

Just as everyone was showering him with praise, Yang Lin had the women set up a stove at the door and hang a large pot over it. He poured all the remaining lard from home into the pot and instructed the women to slice the tofu and fry it.

For a moment, the aroma wafted through the air.

The surface of the tofu was golden and crispy after being fried, then sprinkled with some crushed coarse salt.

The whole courtyard was filled with the sound of swallowing.

Women, after tasting the fried tofu, were even more astonished.

Even Li Yuxiang had never tasted such exquisite flavor.

The villagers watching smelled the aroma and their stomachs rumbled.

"Yang Lin, are you selling this tofu I'm willing to buy it."

"Yeah, yeah, yeah, I want to buy it too. How much is it"

I want to buy some to try it.

Everyone was chattering excitedly, watching the fragrant pan-fried tofu in the pot, their mouths watering.

Although we are not very wealthy, it's okay to spend some money occasionally to satisfy our cravings.

After all this trouble, Yang Lin was waiting for this very moment.

"Aunts, uncles, elder brothers and elder sisters."

Yang Lin first clasped his fists together and then cleared his throat before saying, "As you all know, my family is poor and struggling. This tofu was passed down by a divine being, and I originally didn't intend to sell it. But you are all elders and fellow villagers, and since you have asked, how could Yang Lin possibly refuse"

Okay then, I won't make a profit. I'll just charge you the cost price, two cents per piece!

Yang Lin stretched out two fingers and wagged them.

Everyone's eyes lit up at once.

Two cents

This is really not expensive!

Highliang rice and barley cost five or six wen per jin; as for white flour and rice, they cost dozens of wen!

In comparison, such magical tofu, only two copper coins, is incredibly cheap.

When she heard Yang Lin set the price at two coins, Li Yuyao immediately became anxious, tugged at Yang Lin's clothes, and frantically gave him eye signals: "Too low!"

"My wife said the price is too low."

Yang Lin shook his head.

"Two copper coins are indeed low, but madam, am I selling outsiders These are all our potential matches!"

"Although this tofu was made after a day and night of hard work, overcoming countless difficulties."

But can I, Yang Lin, earn money from my fellow villagers

"No!"

"The hardship and weariness, we swallow them ourselves. I want to give the biggest discounts to my family... to my fellow villagers!"

The villagers were simple folk, they had never seen such tricks.

Then, the moment boiled over.

"I'll buy one."

"Yang Lin, I don't want to take advantage of you, but my family has a lot of people. Sell me two pieces, okay"

“Yeah, yeah, yeah, I want two pieces too. We're all fellow villagers, aren't we”

"Auntie has watched you grow up, sell me three..."

Everyone scrambled to pay.

"I want one hundred dollars!"

"I want two hundred dollars!"

Two voices suddenly shouted in the crowd. Lin, the villagers immediately fell silent and looked expectantly at Yang Lin standing on the large stone.Yang Lin smiled and said, "Brothers and sisters, uncles and aunts, welcome everyone to come t...
