Chapter 290: The Store’s Grand Opening and Booming Business (4)_1
Once the food is harvested from the lowlands and the terraced fields, we’ll classify it as second-rate grain. At that time, the price will be a bit cheaper than the grain from the "Space," but still slightly higher than other households’, making it affordable for ordinary people to buy and eat.
"Sister, what are you doing? Are we making our own meal in the shop at noon?" Seeing Mo Yan carry a wooden basin of rice toward the kitchen, Xin Er asked curiously.
As Mo Yan scooped water from a wooden bucket into the basin, she asked in return, "Do you think the rice our family eats is fragrant?"
"Fragrant!" Xin Er nodded without hesitation, "Even without any side dishes, I could eat two big bowls of plain rice! But sis, I’ve asked you many times, and you never tell me where you buy this rice."
"Haven’t I said it? Didn’t I tell you that I transform it using the ’Immortal Law’?" Mo Yan half-jokingly said while rinsing the rice grains in the basin with water.
"If you don’t want to tell me, then just don’t! Always fooling me with that, I’m not a three-year-old child, how could I be fooled!" Xin Er rolled her eyes, muttering with dissatisfaction, clearly not believing her sister was telling the truth.
Mo Yan was speechless. These days, telling the truth and not being believed.
After the rice had been washed twice and was clean, Mo Yan poured it into a wooden steamer for cooking rice, and instructed Xin Er, "Tell dad to carry the big stove to the front with Grandfather Li, set up a pot on top of it, add some water and heat it up. It’s time to steam the rice."
Xin Er, a bit puzzled, didn’t get a chance to ask more questions before running out.
