The Goal of Ten Thousand

In Chu Village.

Chu Qingzhi toured the old house to check if there were any issues with the cured meats.

Upon leaving the old house, she was stopped by Chu Chunfeng and his wife, Zhou Cuiju, the village chief's eldest son and daughter-in-law.

Zhou Cuiju asked with a smile, "Qingzhi, we also want to cure some meat. Can you tell us which spices to use?"

Chu Qingzhi replied, "Auntie Cuiju, I can't tell you which spices to use, but I can sell you the prepared spices."

After thinking it over, Zhou Cuiju decided that making the spice mix herself might be cheaper but also prone to failure. Buying a ready-made mix would ensure it tasted as good as Chu Qingzhi's, "Alright, I'll buy the ready-made one."

Chu Qingzhi inquired, "Auntie Cuiju, how much pork do you plan to cure?"

Zhou Cuiju said, "Twenty pounds of cured meat and another twenty pounds of salty sausages. Qingzhi, could you prepare the spices for me?"
