"Brother Han, what are you going to eat this morning?"

Ash Nayun heard that Li Mohan was back, and flew to him like a bird, pestering him and asking.

"What else could there be? Anyway, you don't have a single one you want to eat! Roast lamb or something, don't even think about it! ”

Li Mohan said angrily.

"Liar!"

Ashina Yunfei gave him a roll of the eyes, she didn't believe the words of this duplicitous guy.

In the past few days in the Li Mansion, when she was eating breakfast, she found that it had not been the same. Anything made her feel like she had opened the door to a new world of food.

So much so that she looked forward to the early arrival of the meal every day.

followed Li Mohan to the restaurant and sat down, Li Shimin, eldest grandson Wuji and others also came to the restaurant, Li Mohan greeted them one by one and sat down in batches.

"How? The two uncles, as well as Junxian's brother, Mr. Fang, did you sleep well last night? ”

"It's fine. The bed in this room is very thick and soft, and it is rare for the nephew to take such care, and I have rested very well. The eldest grandson Wuji replied.

The guest rooms in Li Mohan's house are all configured according to the model of standard rooms in later hotels, and the rooms are basically complete except for no bathroom.

I didn't ask Qin Le (Li Liqing) how he slept well, because he (she) knew best whether he or she slept well.

"Did you send breakfast to Sufu?" Li Mohan turned around and asked Chunhua.

"Back to the young master, I sent two copies." Chunhua replied.

"Okay, let's have dinner then."

"No!"

After a while, breakfast was served one after another.

Fried dough sticks, soy milk, pickles, and steamed purple potatoes and corn.

Ashina Yun was unceremonious, saw the soy milk in the bowl, and took a sip first.

"Ah, this milk doesn't taste good, and the color is not right!" Ashina Yun said.

Li Mohan flicked it on her head and said angrily:

"Stupid! It's soy milk! ”

"Huh? What is Soy Milk? Bean's brain? Ashinayun looked confused.

Li Mohan picked up a fritter and almost hit her in the face.

"What bean brain? It's made of ground beans, look at it, fritters with soy milk, this is fragrant. It is better to eat with small pickles. ”

Everyone soaked the fritters in soy milk in the same way, and it tasted really fragrant.

Soon, a basket of fried dough sticks was quickly swept away, and a pot of soy milk quickly bottomed out.

"Chunhua, tell the kitchen to fry more fritters."

"It's already being fried," Chunhua replied, seeing that the other three maidservants brought the fritters at a low price, and they were quickly divided.

Li Mohan told Chunhua to serve a pot of soy milk.

"Well, ladies and gentlemen, there's one thing I just forgot to tell you, if you want to drink sweet soy milk, you can add sugar." Li Mohan pointed to a transparent glass jar with sugar in the middle of the table and said.

"Is this sugar?" Li Shimin took the sugar jar and scooped it out with a spoon and put it in his mouth.

"Wow, this sugar is so sweet, no sourness, no bitterness, so sweet!" Li Shimin exclaimed.

The eldest grandson Wuji also scooped a spoonful and put it in his mouth, and he was not afraid of it, and he almost screamed out with happiness.

Everyone scooped up the sugar in turn, put it into the soy milk like Li Mohan and stirred it well, and when they drank it again, they looked satisfied.

Another pot of soy milk was quickly drunk, and only a small half of the jar of sugar was left lying pitifully at the bottom of the jar.

Li Lizhi picked up a piece of purple potato with chopsticks and asked Li Mohan:

"Brother Li, why is this sweet potato so colored?"

"Oh, Brother Xian, this is a purple potato, it is a newly cultivated variety, and it tastes better than ordinary sweet potatoes, Brother Xian try it."

Li Lizhi peeled the purple potato and took a bite gently.

And so it was! Brother Li doesn't deceive me. “

Ash Nayun also took two pieces, and after eating, he complained to Li Mohan and said:

"Brother Han, why didn't you give me this before?"

"You dislike sweet potatoes after eating them for two days, how dare I give you this again?" Li Mohan spread his hands and looked innocent.

"Also, this corn is different from what I used to eat, sweet and crunchy."

"Well, you used to eat old corn, and this one is sweet corn, not a variety." Li Mohan explained.

"Humph!" Ash Nayun took a cage and put it in front of him as if he was angry.

Thinking about Ash Nayun, after Li Lizhi ate a piece of purple potato and corn, she put her mind on fritters.

Crispy and delicious fried dough sticks, accompanied by fragrant sweet soy milk, this breakfast is simple but delicious and nutritious.

Li Shimin, eldest grandson Wuji, Fang Xuanling, and Li Junxian ate their mouths full of oil, constantly calling for fritters, soy milk, and pickles, and each of them ate two small plates.

"Virtuous nephew, I can't imagine that this breakfast in the house is so delicious."

The eldest grandson Wuji exclaimed.

"yes, I... True... It's so delicious, I'm eating it again. Li Shimin touched his bulging belly and said, he hadn't eaten breakfast so comfortably for a long time.

Fang Xuanling and Li Junxian also eat like a pot-bellied woman.

Li Mohan picked up a small strip of pickles with chopsticks, looked around and said:

"Guys, don't you know if this little pickle is delicious?"

"Well, yes, yes."

"Can you taste the bitterness in this pickle?"

"No, no. This pickle is salty and refreshing, and it is very delicious. Li Shimin replied.

Li Mohan took out a jar of salt and put it on the table.

If it weren't for the big label, Li Shimin and the eldest grandson Wuji would have thought that this was another jar of sugar.

"This, this is salt?" Eldest Sun Wuji couldn't believe it, he took it in his hand, scooped a spoonful and put it in his mouth.

Salty salty, salty, this is salt, that's right, this is salt!

Li Mohan frowned, this is a big spoonful of salt, this old brother is not too panicked, he looks reluctant to vomit in his mouth, he really wants to turn himself into a bat?

"Uncle Eldest Sun, hurry up and vomit, I look at it and panic."

The eldest grandson Wuji shook his head.

"What I have here, throw it up."

The eldest grandson Wuji reluctantly spit out the half-melted mouthful of salt in his mouth, and rinsed his mouth with soy milk.

Li Shimin also took the salt shaker, pinched out a little and tasted it, and his eyes were shining.

"Nephew, this is the big business you talked about yesterday?"

"That's right!"

"Let's not talk about this sugar, there is nothing sweeter than this in Datang at present, and the price is very good. But this salt? With such fine and pure salt, I'm afraid it will cost two hundred wen a bucket, right? Li Shimin asked.

Fang Xuanling interjected and said: "As far as the old man knows, the green salt in Chang'an City now costs one hundred and fifty wen a bucket, the ordinary yellow salt costs seventy wen a bucket, and the gray salt costs fifty wen a bucket. This kind of salt you took out is not available in the market at present, and it is not a problem to pay for two hundred or three hundred yuan. After all, you get what you pay for. ”

Seeing that Li Mohan didn't speak, the eldest grandson Wuji tried to ask:

"Nephew, what price are you going to sell?"

Li Mohan stretched out four fingers.

"What? Four hundred texts? It's too expensive, right? Only the rich and noble can afford it. Li Shimin said loudly, scolding Li Mohan as a profiteer in his heart.

Li Mohan smiled and shook his head.

"No, it's forty wen!"

"What?! Forty texts! Li Shimin, eldest grandson Wuji, and Fang Xuanling jumped up from their chairs in shock.

"Yes, forty wen, just forty wen!" Li Mohan replied in the affirmative.

"How is that possible?! Aren't you losing money and making money? The eldest grandson Wuji said, shaking his head and saying that he didn't understand what kind of operation Li Mohan was.

Li Mohan stretched out five more fingers and said:

"It's my cost."

"Fifty? That is to say, you have to pay ten cents for a bucket of salt, so what are you trying to do? Li Shimin was puzzled.

Actually, he didn't really care about what Li Mohan said about partnering in business, after all, in his eyes, Jiangshan Sheji was much more important than money. If Li Mohan sells salt at such a low price, it is beneficial to the people, and he is happy to see it happen. However, such a money-losing deal will not last long, and he doesn't understand why Li Mohan wants to do this. Could it be that he wants to buy people's hearts? Li Shimin couldn't help but be wary of Li Mohan.

"I mean, my cost is only five cents, uh, maybe if I compress the transportation and logistics costs, I can be around four cents." Li Mohan snapped his fingers and said.

"What? Four texts? Impossible, how could it be!? "Eldest Sun Wuji couldn't believe his ears, how much wine did this kid drink yesterday, is this, still talking drunk?

Li Shimin and Fang Xuanling also have an expression that I am old, don't lie to me.

Li Li put the label of talking big words on Li Mohan again in her heart.

Li Mohan didn't bother to explain to them, and took them to the two salt factories for a walk.

Then when they came back, Li Shimin and the others were all not good.

That's it?

The salt, which is as white as snow, was extracted from the salt mines.

After crushing, dissolving, precipitation, filtration, evaporation, and then grinding several processes, the salt comes down the production line like flowing water, and then is packed into special clay pots, which are said to be exactly one pot and one bucket.

The production cost alone is probably less than two pennies.

The scene was guarded by crossbow-wielding soldiers, five steps and one sentry, ten steps and one post, Li Shimin and the others could not get close to see what material was used for filtration, and what was going on with the huge evaporator, and did not find where the heat source was.

There seem to be many workshops in these two factories, and the workshops on the left and right streets extend to the back mountain, and there seems to be the sound of striking iron in the distance. Li Shimin proposed to visit other places, but Li Mohan was perfunctory, only taking them to look at the soap production line from a distance on the edge of the soap workshop, and did not let them look inside.

How many secrets is hidden in this Li Jiazhuang?

Back in the living room, Spring Hua Tianyue brought tea.

Li Shimin, eldest grandson Wuji, Fang Xuanling and others were still immersed in shock.

"How? Uncle Qin, Uncle Eldest Sun, this sugar and salt business can be done with Li Er? Li Mohan asked proudly.

"Do it, of course do it." The eldest grandson Wuji hurriedly nodded in agreement.

This business is so done!

That's a lot of profit.

Li Shimin's body was already trembling slightly.

Fang Xuanling began to take out the small abacus he carried with him, crackling, calculating how much money he could earn in a year.

Li Mohan put another piece of soap on the table.

"Salt, sugar, soap. This is the first batch of products I want to cooperate with Li Er. You have all tried the soap, this is compared with the soap horn and soap powder used by the people now, that is, Guan Gong and Zhou Cangbi, it is Xi Shi and Dong Shi Bi, it must be a big seller. Li Mohan said confidently.

"That's that, it's definitely in short supply." The eldest grandson Wuji said.

Li Mohan stretched out his hand and said:

"What about this franchise certificate? Look at ...... two."

The eldest grandson Wuji glanced at Li Shimin, saw him nodding slightly, patted Li Mohan's chest and said, "This bag is on someone!" A certain will also ask His Majesty to give your shop a handwritten inscription. ”

"That's a good idea!" Li Mohan clapped his hands and laughed, stared at the eldest grandson Wuji, and said slyly:

"Uncle Eldest Sun, do you already know that I am going to sell these things in those shops?"

The eldest grandson Wuji couldn't help but be embarrassed, that was his fifteen stores.

The heart said, come on, rush this kid to give me a share, this store, the value of losing!

Li Shimin also smiled from ear to ear.

Money, money, I'm finally rich!

Looking at Li Mohan is like seeing the God of Wealth, the more I look at it, the more I like it, and I have long forgotten the incident that I wanted to kill him an hour ago. Even if he heard Li Mohan call him Li Er in person, he no longer had the same knowledge as him, and even almost praised him: This bastard boy is really TM going to give people a name.

"Uncle Eldest Sun, didn't you just say that you can still get Li Er's Mobao?" Li Mohan asked.

"Yes, that's right, when you return to the palace, you will play the Ming Sheng, and ask him to give you an inscription for your shop."

Li Mohan nodded and said:

"That's good! Li Er's calligraphy is still good, the most important thing is that he is the emperor, and his inscription is a thousand words, and ordinary businessmen can't ask for it. The words he inscribed, that is, the golden signboard. ”

Li Shimin's face rarely showed a sense of triumph. Hmph, this bastard boy, it's rare to praise him once.

When others compliment him to his face, he understands. This kid praised him behind his back, which is the real truth.

I only heard Li Mohan say word by word: "Uncle Eldest Sun, I hope you meet Li Er, and ask him to inscribe me with the four big characters of 'Sihai Trading Company'"

"What? Is the Four Seas Trading Company yours? ”

Li Shimin, eldest grandson Wuji, Fang Xuanling and others were all shocked.

Li Lizhi also stood on the ground with petrification: impossible, how could it be? The world-famous Four Seas Trading Company turned out to be Li Mohan's industry?

Even Ash Nayun covered his mouth in surprise.

He, Brother Han, he is the boss of the Four Seas Trading Company?

It's incredible!
