[The next book, From Slave Girl to Head Chef, is now being serialized. Please add it to your favorites! Its blurb is below this one!]
One day, Tang Fuxi, a novelist, transmigrated into the role of the miserable foil in a farming novel.
In the book, the heroine, Liu Xiaoqing, led Liu Family Village in growing soybeans and selling tofu, growing flowers and selling flower cakes... They made a fortune.
The neighboring Tang Family Village, cast as their foil, tried to copy them but failed miserably, leaving the whole village scraping by and tightening their belts.
Faced with taunts from Liu Family Village and looking at the gaunt villagers around her, Tang Fuxi waved her little hand. "I'm a novelist. I can do anything!"
Too much trouble to make tofu?
Tofu, dried tofu, and tofu pudding, we'll make them all on an assembly line.
Flower cakes too delicate?
Turning flowers into scented balm, perfume, and skincare products is the real skill.
Liu Xiaoqing refused to back down, but...
Just as she discovered how to increase rice yields, Tang Family Village had already started planting hybrid rice.
Just as she came up with the idea of building roads to get rich, Tang Family Village had already paved its roads with concrete.
Seeing everyone in Tang Family Village with a bicycle, Liu Xiaoqing angrily tossed aside her hoe. "If you can't beat them, join them!"
Later, Tang Family Village swept across the country with its overwhelming GDP, leaping to the top.
The people of Suihe Town, where Tang Family Village was located, clamored for Tang Fuxi to become their mayor.
Merchants treated Tang Fuxi like a god of wealth, worshiping her golden statue day and night and wishing they could embroider her onto their waistbands.
Even the royal family extended an offer, hoping to hire Tang Fuxi as a prosperity consultant.
Tang Fuxi scratched her head in confusion. "Does everyone think I've already made it? But I've only just started my business."

Notes:
1. A plot-driven story about farming and business, with plenty of everyday family life.
2. The woman is older than the man, but this clueless author can't write the appeal of an older-woman-younger-man romance. Their relationship is basically that of a normal young couple.
3. The romance is minor, with the focus on the heroine's career.

From Slave Girl to Head Chef
Tang Wanwan is a food blogger who loves learning new cooking skills. One day, she transmigrates and becomes a slave girl, responsible for her younger siblings and constantly at risk of starving to death.
After going from luxury to hardship in an instant, Tang Wanwan rolls up her sleeves and prepares to work at a restaurant.
But when she steps out onto the street, she discovers that this is a dynasty never recorded in history.
Here, delicate stir-fried dishes are flourishing, and she can learn!
Here, no one has heard of hamburgers, fried chicken, or spicy hot pot, and she can make money!!!
The restaurant where she works is full of master chefs, so Tang Wanwan doesn't dare show off in front of experts. But...
Her pan-fried rice balls win the staff's praise.
A basket of crystal dumplings catches the head chef's attention.
A serving of crispy fried chicken earns rave reviews from customers, and even gets her the chance to become a famous chef's apprentice!
And that's not even counting scallion-oil noodles with a giant hot pot, red-oil wontons with little cakes, instant noodles with lamb-stuffed flatbread, and meat-stuffed flatbread with mapo tofu!
Diners hold back their drool and wave their banknotes. "Take my money right now, before you make me kneel and beg you."
The famous chefs hold back their excited tears and throw open their doors. "Become my beloved apprentice right now. I'm begging you!"

Later, Head Chef Tang Wanwan becomes famous, and even the emperor and princess come to sample her food. Her little restaurant is incredibly busy, but never has any trouble.
She watches a certain prefect pass by her restaurant three times every day. The man has a face as handsome as jade and a tall, straight figure. Elegant and refined as a distant mountain, he exudes such uprightness that he seems like a pillar keeping the world at peace. Just standing there, he can drive away every demon and monster in the world.
She teases him. "Is something the matter, sir?"
"Nothing," the man pauses. "I just miss you."
A gentle, clever little chef VS a refined and proper prefect who is impossibly swoon-worthy
Theme: Those who work hard can overcome anything.
After reading it, I think the logic of the early writing is reasonable, and many plot advancements are explained clearly. This is why I can persist in reading it. Here are some little rants: 1. Personally, I don't like this kind of farming/era novels that forcefully engage in such plots of being slapped in the face by top relatives. It feels like a slap in the face by a tool man. 2. There is no unified standard for the treatment results of various top villains. Many top villains tolerate it again and again. I really hate it. 3. If you really want the heroine to be the county magistrate, it is recommended that the heroine pay for road construction, hand over the hybrid rice formula, actively donate materials due to successive losses in the war, etc., And be awarded the official position because of her significant contribution. After making a little money, she wants to be elected as the county magistrate. Is it a bit too natural? 4. The ending is so rushed, I can see that I can't continue writing. 5. Practice more emotional scenes. . . 6. The monetary system feels exaggerated, and it often feels like the inflationary market economy is about to collapse.
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha The second uncle just wants to catch the thief, what's wrong with him!
The oil production rate of roses is very low. Thousands of kilograms of roses can only produce one kilogram of essential oil. Therefore, the two large baskets of roses written by the author earlier produced so much essential oil. I was very confused. It seems that whole roses can easily produce essential oil. Also, the author made too many typos and always typed the names of people wrong, which made people confused.
Liu Xiaoqing is not a bad person either, I like the author
Drawing a pie is a necessary skill for bosses We have to refuse the boss's offer of a big pie. It would be great if we offer the boss a piece of pie instead, hahahahahahahahaha
What exactly is the balm in this novel??? Which skin care product today is so amazing??? How many days does it take to turn white after applying???
