When they came, they had hunted a few more animals from the mountain. Because Gu Ying had come with them, Gu Yings guards and Wei Yi had also come, while Wei Er was taking care of Nio Yu in the camp. The few of them went to the mountain to hunt a lot of prey, so there was meat to eat in the Snow World Village today.

The next day, MO Ruyue went up the mountain again. As it had been sunny for the past few days, the snow on the treetops on the mountain had dropped a lot. MO Ruyue noticed that the trees were mostly pine trees. When she saw the pine trees, she had a flash of inspiration!

There were pine nuts in the pine cone of the pine tree every year. Wasn’t this another large sum of income?

Pine nuts were very nutritious. It was suitable for both children and the elderly to eat some.

This thing was very rare in the south, and it could be sold for a high price.

Therefore, MO Ruyue returned to the village and asked the old village chief,

“Do you harvest pine nuts every year?”

“Yes, yes, yes. I’ll go get it for you now.”

The old village chief thought that MO Ruyue liked pine nuts, so he prepared to give her all the pine nuts in his house.

MO Ruyue saw that the pine nuts were big and plump. They were of good quality and were basically top-grade.

“Aiya, you guys are really guarding a treasure mountain, but you don’t know that there’s a treasure in the mountain!”

Chun Hua took this and stir-fried it as melon seeds, stir-frying it with the original flavor and five spices.”

As for the five spices, MO Ruyue wasn’t afraid of running out of them. They had brought a lot of herbs with them, so they wouldn’t be short of them.

Although Chun Hua was not the head chef at home, she still knew how to fry melon seeds.

Jiayao’s cooking skills were the best, and they were only slightly inferior. Especially as the maids of Princess Ming Yue, each of the four maids had to be proficient in serving tea and rice.

Usually, when they were at home, they didn’t compete with Yao for work, and they had to do other things. But when they were out, Chun Hua had to do everything by herself.

Soon, the spiced pine nuts were out of the pot.

“Come, everyone, try it.

Village Chief, how do you usually eat pine nuts?”

When Chun Hua brought out the five-spice pine nuts, the old village chief had already smelled the fragrance. He couldn’t help but want to grab a handful and squat at the door to bask in the sun.

“We just casually stir-fried the food for a while, so how can it have such a good fragrance?”

“There were a lot of pine nuts on the mountain, so they couldn’t be sold. Even if they were sold, they would be sold at a low price. They would sell three to five catties for a penny. Gradually, they wouldn’t sell the big ones. It was better to keep them to fill their stomachs sometimes.”

“In the future, you guys should collect more every year. I’ll take all of them at five coins per catty.”

The old village chief’s hand that was holding the pine nuts trembled, and he almost spilled all the pine nuts in his hand.

“Madam, if you like it, I’ll send it to you every year. You don’t have to pay.” The old village chief waved his hands at MO Ruyue. They had already received so much kindness from the noble, how could they ask for money for pine nuts?

Five wens per catty? Then he wouldn’t rob them. “Hurry up and taste the five fragrances that Chun Hua stir-fried.”

Gu Ying had already eaten a small pile of shells.

“This thing has a lot of grease. As you said, it can fill your stomach, but that’s not the main thing.”

“The main reason was that the pine nuts had medicinal effects. They could strengthen the spleen and relieve the bowels, nourish the yin and moisten the lungs, strengthen the brain, and even delay aging if eaten all year round.” “However, if you have a stomach ache, you should eat less. It’s best not to eat.”

“It is beneficial for others to eat some every day.”

“Do pine nuts really have these effects?”

Village Chief took a bite. The pine nut was very fragrant when it entered his mouth, and it was even more fragrant with the five fragrances.

After listening to MO Ruyue’s explanation of the effects of pine nuts, he suddenly felt that the pine nuts that they had always regarded as worthless had become several times more valuable.

“Of course. Help me collect as many as you can in the future. I’ll take as many as you can in the villages.”

“Then can you sell the ones you’ve received?”

The old village chief was most worried that MO Ruyue would take it away and not smash it into her hands.

“Of course. The people in the capital like to eat these things. I’m just waiting for you to help me collect them.”

“Alright, alright. Leave this matter to this old man!”

The old village chief was really happy. They had another way to earn money.

His life would definitely get better and better in the future.

After MO Ruyue and the old village chief finished discussing the matter of collecting pine nuts, Gu Ying and the old village chief started talking about charcoal.

Gu Ying immediately made a deal with the village chief. He had already talked to the general about this matter and made a treaty with the old village chief. He also went to the government office to press his fingerprint and sign it, becoming the residence guide of the relevant government.

With the estate token, they wouldn’t have to worry about people checking that their Snowy World Village didn’t allow them to make charcoal.

The old village chief held the manor guide in his arms like a treasure. This was the treasure of everyone in his village. He had to take good care of it.

“It’s okay. The government office has a record.”

“Hey, I know. Thank you, sir. Thank you, sir. Thank you, madam!”

“You’re all good people!’

“Madam, please drink more chicken soup. This mushroom is the freshest mushroom on our mountain.’

The mushrooms in this chicken mushroom stew were exchanged by the village chief’s wife from another shop. There were a total of three types, and they tasted very delicious.

MO Ruyue glanced at the mushroom that the village chief’s wife had asked her to eat. Wasn’t this hazel mushroom?

Nio Ruyue took the soup and ate it. It was indeed delicious, especially the soup. The essence of the chicken and mushrooms had all blended into the soup. It was so fresh.

No matter what species the mushrooms in the north were, even the most common ones were delicious.

“Aunt, you can actually grow these mushrooms yourself…”

MO Ruyue immediately wrote down the method of planting fungi. Actually, the simplest way to plant fungi was to use a suitable wooden stake to maintain the temperature and humidity.

The old village chief was literate, so he treasured the mushroom planting method that MO Ruyue had written. He would definitely encourage the entire village to plant mushrooms on the mountain next spring.

Gu Ying initially thought that it was not worth it to set up the Xue Family

Bodyguard Agency here. However, for the sake of these border villages, he was willing to pay some money from other places. After his Ruyue had thought of so many ideas, he felt that the bodyguard agency here might be the most profitable.

After all, it was very difficult to get a large amount of these specialties in the outside world. For someone like him who had set up a bodyguard agency to collect the freshest goods at the first moment, just this alone could make his bodyguard agency earn money.

After the discussion in Snow World Village was done, Gu Ying prepared to go to a few other places to take a look and choose the location of the Xue Family Bodyguard Agency.

MO Ruyue did not participate in these matters. At most, she would give some suggestions.

After spending ten days in the Snow World Village, MO Ruyue tried her best to dig out the local specialties of the village. There were a total of ten kinds of local specialties. MO Ruyue was even prepared to bring back some of the pine blossom stones that could be seen on the riverbank and other places. They could be made into ornaments and earn a lot of money.

To MO Ruyue and the others, these stones were free, so they could take them back and try them out.

Gu Ying had also set the two designated locations for the Xue Family Bodyguard Agency. They were ready to return to the military camp.

The Emperor’s decree had almost arrived.

These were all urgent decrees and letters. Moreover, the two sides were now in a state of confrontation. They had to resolve it as soon as possible. Both countries were afraid that there would be changes if they delayed.

All the villagers of Snow World Village stood at the entrance of the village reluctantly, watching MO Ruyue and her group leave..
