Evil will not deceive you

Li Ke didn't stay at the farm for long. After asking about some things, such as prices and labor costs, he and Jennifer left, taking away some bacon and bread they baked themselves.

Although it is not very expensive, it is a piece of heart.

Only the chef Nomi was dissatisfied, feeling that they were tainting the bread. He criticized the poor bread made by the peasant women along the way, and even secretly ate two pieces of bread openly and scolded them while eating.

Li Ke just smiled, because Nomi just didn't want them to think that the bread made by the peasant women was delicious.

Along the way, Li Ke also slightly calculated the labor costs, materials, and other costs. He did not use paper and pen, but just calculated silently in his mind.

Finally, he came to the conclusion that there was definitely money to be made! His own money is enough!

So, when he got home, he immediately made a small room as his workspace, and sent Griet to the pharmacy to buy a lot of things, and moved them all to his room.

"I never expected you to be a pharmacist."

Looking at the pile of strange raw materials that Li Ke asked him to buy, and Li Ke adjusting the balance of the table in the center of the empty room.

"I know a lot of things, but I didn't have the opportunity and identity to show it before. Greet, I can paint a portrait for you another day."

After Li Ke smoothed the table, he placed the pencil of this world on it. After making sure that the pencil would not roll around, he breathed a sigh of relief, and then threw a good tablecloth on it.

But unexpectedly, Griet was in a daze.

"Can you still draw?"

Her tone was full of surprise.

"Of course, in fact, my original dream was to be a painter, but unfortunately, the cost of training a painter is too expensive. Just oil painting requires countless money. With my family's conditions, it is a complete fantasy, so I just After learning some, I gave up on my own.”

Li Ke originally wanted to be an art student, but he calmly investigated and then gave up and chose to be a nail in industrialization.

the reason is simple.

No money, and no one at home.

Painting is an elegant artistic behavior. There are so many people who learn to paint, but none of them want to become famous at first.

But what's the use of having talent? Art needs to succumb to reality. Artists who can transcend reality generally don't need to worry about money.

But obviously, most artists need to eat.

For ordinary people to appreciate a good painting, it takes at most one or two minutes, but for a painter, it may take several months or a whole year.

How can ordinary people have the capital to stare at one painting for a month?

And without connections, no matter how good your painting is, you can only become famous after your death.

But of what use will it be to you at that time?

But the reason why Li Ke gave up was not only because of the bleak future, but also because of one thing.

Training classes are damn expensive.

"Can you also paint oil paintings?"

"Well, it's about average. I'm better at sketching because sketching doesn't cost much."

Li Ke nodded casually, and then went to select the materials he needed.

It didn't take much effort to find the gypsum I needed among the messy materials I bought. After a little identification, I was sure that it was the gypsum I needed, not another substance with the same name.

Although brine can also be used, brine tofu is relatively old, and Li Ke feels it is not suitable as a selling point in this world.

Why?

Most of the people in this world are Europeans and Americans, and they also like sweets. Soft, slightly sweet gypsum tofu is obviously more suitable for them.

He casually poured the plaster into the basin that he had brought with him and stirred it up.

"What are you doing?"

Ge Liye was very confused as to what Li Ke wanted to do. He wanted eggs and beans before, but now he came back with such a big pile of things.

"Cook some food from my hometown...and by the way, it will improve my status with the lord."

"...Aren't you going to run away?"

"The less likely a person is to escape, the more likely he is to escape. Besides, with two beauties and a lot of children to raise in the future, I need a lot of money."

Li Ke answered without raising his head.

You cannot reveal your true purpose when doing things. Although his true purpose is to open a breeding farm, you must have a cover.

Tofu is a very good cover and introduction.

The bean dregs produced by mass production of tofu can only be fed to livestock. At this time, I proposed to open a chicken farm, so it would not be so abrupt.

Not to mention that evil energy is something that everyone shouts about and beats, so it’s always a good idea to be careful.

Moreover, it takes at least a month for a chicken farm to produce results. How much can you do in one month?

Unlike chicken farms, tofu is here to make quick money. Once this thing is produced, it will be difficult to keep the production method secret, so Li Ke does not plan to do this for a long time.

The wisdom of working people is infinite, and Li Ke doesn't think such a simple thing can be kept secret in this world for long.

"..."

Ge Liye didn't know what to say. She looked at Li Ke who was stirring the tofu and sighed silently.

"So, go and talk to the lord for me. I will meet with him tomorrow."

Li Ke looked at Ge Liye and didn't know what to say, so he gave him a task. In fact, this was what Ge Liye's mission was.

As for whether it is possible to make tofu?

Li Ke was 95% sure that he had met the remaining 5%. He also had other things to discuss with the lord.

At worst, we can just open a chicken farm.

"good."

Ge Liye nodded, and her figure immediately disappeared in front of Li Ke.

After seeing her leave, Li Ke stopped stirring the gypsum, picked up the soybeans, and went to the stone mill behind the tavern.

This stone mill is used for secondary processing of flour, so it is relatively small and fine. But Li Ke looked at the large frame of soybeans he carried on his back, then looked at the huge stone mill, and was silent for a while. Afterwards, I walked upstairs and found Jennifer who was discussing something with the chef.

"Jennifer."

"What's wrong?"

"Do we have a donkey at home?"

"Do you want it so early? I'm talking about something, so let me give it to you with my mouth first..."

"...I mean real donkey."

"Really... why are you so ambiguous? Yes, but if you borrow it, I'll get it back for you."

Having a donkey would make things much easier, but Li Ke felt really tired when he looked at this stupid donkey that stopped from time to time even if it was blindfolded and had a carrot hanging in front of it.

"Why is 'Do we have a donkey at home' a flirtatious phrase?"

Li Ke looked at the donkey that was grinding, and couldn't figure out the logic of this, because it didn't fit in at all.

But fortunately, making tofu went relatively smoothly and did not cause any setbacks for Li Ke.

Looking at the moist, white and tender tofu in front of him, Li Ke couldn't help laughing.

He's already seen the money and evil energy rolling in.
