Transmigration: Getting Rich with My Space and Supplies

Qin Ye originally had no interest in that position.

He preferred to guard the border here.

Away from the deceitful court, he found greater joy in the freedom of this place.

But now things were different... The items in Rong Yan’s possession were all highly coveted.

Without strong power, they were difficult to protect.

Therefore, he decided to vie for that position... He wanted to protect her, to allow her the freedom to live life as she pleased.

To do what she wanted without any worries, because he wanted to be her strongest support.

Moreover, in Beijing, no matter who took that position... Even if he demonstrated utmost loyalty, he would still be seen as a thorn in the side by that person.

Previously, he truly didn’t take those people seriously, planning his life here as long as they didn’t bother him too much.

But now it was different; he wouldn’t allow anyone to target Rong Yan.

Additionally, he wanted to grant her the highest honor in this world.

Thus, after walking around the manor, he had a new goal in mind.

Rong Yan glanced at the sky outside... but he showed no intention of leaving.

So he asked, "Shall we have dinner here?"

As for staying overnight... she had not considered it.

After all, both his military camp and his mansion were not too far from here.

He had ridden a horse here, so naturally, he could return quickly.

Her words sounded like an invitation to Qin Ye’s ears.

He immediately agreed happily, "Okay!"

Rong Yan watched his cheerful expression... Perhaps, with the money she made this month, she was in a good mood, seeing everyone positively.

"Tonight, I’ll make a different kind of meal. Our local bok choy is growing well, so let’s have hot pot."

"Okay!" Qin Ye didn’t know what hot pot was, but he didn’t ask. It must be something delicious.

If he asked, wouldn’t it show his lack of culture... and ignorance?

"Why don’t you sit here for a while? Hu Dao can show you around the manor; I’ll go prepare."

She had been especially busy this month, laboring both mentally and physically, so she hadn’t had time to think about food.

Now was the perfect time to enjoy it.

Qin Ye originally wanted to suggest preparing it together, but after thinking it over, he decided against it.

He wasn’t skilled in such matters, after all.

Besides, he really didn’t know what hot pot was! He had never had it.

"Alright!"

Upon further thought, he felt both excited and delighted... Did Rong Yan also have him in her heart?

If she didn’t care for him, why would she go out of her way to prepare a meal personally for him?

Thinking this, he struggled to contain his excited expression.

Rong Yan glanced at him, not knowing what he was excited about. Did he also know about hot pot?

Without further thought, she walked out to the kitchen...

Meanwhile, Qin Ye stood there smiling foolishly for a while, then walked outside with high spirits.

Seeing Hu Dao lagging behind, he suddenly gave him a sharp look, "What are you standing there for?"

Hu Dao immediately followed.

Qin Ye had previously been too curious about the greenhouse, so he had only taken a cursory look, not really understanding what it was all about.

Now he had the time to take a proper look... After all, preparing those meals would certainly take some time.

When Li San’s wife from the Zheng Family saw the master arriving in the kitchen, she was startled and quickly came forward, "Miss, why have you come to the kitchen? If you need anything, you could have just sent Xiao Cao... It’s smoky here..."

This is hardly a place for a master to stay.

"I’ll prepare some side dishes," Rong Yan didn’t say much.

Li San’s wife could cook reasonably well, so she was assigned to the kitchen.

Later, Rong Yan went to the town’s broker and bought some maids and old women on life contracts, along with house servants to work.

With enough hands, a few decent cooks were also arranged to work in this kitchen.

After all, the kitchen had to prepare meals not only for them but also for the short-term and long-term workers clearing the land.

Li San’s wife didn’t quite understand what her master meant. What side dishes?

But since her master had said so, she simply stepped aside.

The other people in the kitchen also stopped their work and respectfully stood aside.

Rong Yan looked at those working, "Don’t mind me; just carry on with your tasks."

With that, everyone resumed their well-organized tasks.

The stove was large, loaded with various washed and ready-to-cook dishes.

Rong Yan chose some vegetables, including the bean sprouts she had taught someone to grow.

As for the potatoes... they were also available.

However, she didn’t have to do the work herself.

She could simply issue orders.

"Peel these potatoes and then cut them into thin slices like this..."

"And this pork, cut it thinner as well..."

Rong Yan continued to give instructions, then she noticed the lamb. She remembered today seemed to be the day they had slaughtered a sheep at the Manor.

The last time, she had traded grain with a family for some sheep.

This morning, she specifically had Xiao Cao come to the kitchen to convey her wish to slaughter a sheep to warm everyone’s belly.

"Cut some of this lamb into a platter as well, also in thin slices... Oh, and clean those large tubular bones and bring two."

She planned to cook two pots, one spicy and one not.

As for the pots... Rong Yan had bought two copper pots at the Space Supermarket, which were kept in her living quarters.

Not to mention the base ingredients; she had stocked up quite extensively at the Space Supermarket.

How to sauté the spices and then how to cook the broth with tubular bones... the skilled cooks only needed a little guidance and they would know what to do.

This saved Rong Yan a lot of effort.

After all, when it came to cooking skills, she was somewhat lacking.

Qin Ye had never really examined the greenhouse before. After doing so now, the look of astonishment never left his face.

No wonder they could grow off-season vegetables.

It really was warm inside.

They were using a ground dragon for heating!

Given such costs... it must be quite high, he thought these vegetables must be sold to wealthy families—at a higher price, of course.

Moreover, he thought about the many vegetables Rong Yan had given away... How much silver would that be worth?

If that’s not fondness, then what is?

She must surely like him.

Thinking this, Qin Ye felt a surge of emotion.

He almost wished they could get married tomorrow.

Observing his master nearly finished looking around, Hu Dao asked, "Master, shall we go to the glass factory now?"

Hearing this, Qin Ye instantly regained his focus, "Yes, let’s go now."

He wanted to see how such large, clear pieces of glass were made.
