Chapter 150: Making Sauce
But last time, she asked people to deal with Lin Jingyuan, but she didn't get any benefits, not only did she not get benefits, but Xiong Shangshu was also unlucky, and he was involved in Beidi's fine crime, and was suspended by the emperor for investigation. and Commander Naro was found to have taken bribes and dismissed.
If it is not such a coincidence, is there someone behind Lin Yanyan who is helping her?
The light that had just bloomed in Qingrou's eyes dimmed again, and her heart was full of a sense of powerlessness, this Lin Yanyan was too difficult to deal with.
Cai Ling's mind moved: "County Lord, why don't you support someone and make some trouble for Lin Yanyan." β
"Who?"
"Vera Lin. That Lin Zhenzhen robbed Lin Yanyan's fiancΓ©, but she was deceived into marriage by the Zhu family, and now she is at home, she and Lin Yanyan will definitely not deal with each other, we just need to support her, let her find some trouble for Lin Yanyan from time to time, and it is good to respond to Lin Yanyan! β
Qingrou groaned: "Then Lin Zhenzhen is an abandoned woman now, how easy is it to support her?" β
How can she make a comeback from an abandoned woman who has been separated from her home? It's too difficult.
"County Lord, it is a fact that Lin Zhenzhen and Li, it is impossible to marry a well-known wife, but with her appearance, it should be no problem for her to be a concubine of a high-ranking family!"
"You have a point, let me think about it."
The master and servant of Qingrou County were racking their brains to find a way to deal with Lin Yanyan, and Lin Yanyan was resting in the elegant room of the Tongyuan Building at this time.
I was in a daze, only to hear someone outside.
Lin Yanyan opened his eyes: "What's going on outside?" β
Jinxin said: "Slave maid go and take a look." β
Xu Yu Jinxin came back and said, "It was an old man who sold cherries who fainted, and Mr. Liu asked him to carry him into the store and pinch him, and the person was already awake at this time." β
Lin Yanyan suddenly fell asleep, got up and walked out.
In the lobby, a group of people surrounded the old man who had just woken up, delivering water, rubbing hands, and asking.
"You all get out of the way, don't surround him, let him breathe." Lin Yanyan said.
Everyone retreated, and Lin Yanyan stepped forward to check the pulse of the old man: "Uncle, you are suffering from heat stroke, I will give you a few injections, and you will be fine if you drink some light salt water." β
"Quick, go make a bowl of light salt water." Mr. Liu immediately asked people to soak in the water.
Lin Yanyan took out the silver needle bag and applied needles to the old man's Baihui acupoint, Renzhong acupoint, Quze acupoint, Weizhong acupoint and other acupoints.
The old man's face gradually turned bloody.
"Thank you girl for saving your life, and please let me rest here, I'll leave later." The old man said weakly.
"Uncle, you can rest here and wait until you are ready."
"Mr. Liu, the old man's cherries have been picked up, where to put them?" Two powerful cooks, one of whom came in with a basket.
Mr. Liu said, "And put it in the corner." β
Lin Yanyan saw that the two baskets of cherries were still full, and the color was not very good, and they were a little shriveled.
"Uncle, are you late for cherry picking?"
The old man sighed: "Isn't it? My eldest son showed a few years ago, the second son was on the border of northern Xinjiang, the third son went up the mountain to collect medicine for his mother a while ago and accidentally broke his leg, I was busy taking care of the two patients at home, delaying the picking time, and today I had to enter the city to sell, but this bad thing can't be sold, and no one wants to sell it. β
The old man said, his heart was sad, and his eyes were filled with tears.
Lin Yanyan thought for a while: "Uncle, I just need cherries, don't pick the color, why don't you sell me these two baskets of cherries!" β
The old man looked at Lin Yanyan in surprise: "Girl, you saved my life, you don't think this thing is bad, you take it, I can't collect money." β
Lin Yanyan: "How can you not collect money?" Mr. Liu, go on the scales, see how many catties there are, and give the old man money at the market price. β
"I can't help it, girl, just give me a few copper coins." The old man said embarrassedly.
"Uncle, there are two other patients in your family, and they all need money to see a doctor."
The old man was dumb for a moment, he really needed money now.
After a while, Mr. Liu came back with ten taels of silver: "Miss, two baskets of cherries are sixty-seven catties, which is almost ten taels of silver at the market price." β
Mr. Liu knew that the young lady wanted to do good, so he brought more silver. Ten taels of silver is nothing to the young lady, but for the old man, it is life-saving money.
The old man was stupid with ten taels of silver, he was stunned for a while, struggled to get up, and knelt down for Lin Yanyan: "Girl, great kindness, my old man Zhou can't repay it!" β
"Uncle, hurry up, you don't have to feel sorry, I really need these cherries, not just to help you."
After the old man left, Jin Xin said: "Miss, you said that you really need these cherries, didn't you really coax the old man?" β
Lin Yanyan chuckled: "I never do loss-making business, you carry cherries into the kitchen and see how I turn decay into magic." β
Fenghua came in with a roast pigeon, just when he heard this, he hurriedly put away the roast pigeon: "Is there something delicious again?" β
Everyone listened to Lin Yanyan's instructions, washed the cherries, picked out the rotten ones that could not be used, and removed the rest one by one.
Hui Niang set up the cauldron, the man burned the stove, poured all the washed and pitted cherry flesh into the cauldron, added an appropriate amount of sugar and honey and began to boil, stirring while boiling.
Mr. Liu went out and bought 20 fine white porcelain jars, washed them, dried them under the sun, and sent them to the kitchen.
Lin Yanyan's cherry sauce here is also boiled, the color is bright red and moist, it is gratifying, taste it, sweet and sour, it is the fruity aroma of cherries.
"This one tastes better than fresh cherries." Fenghua tasted and tasted again, and couldn't stop at all.
Lin Yanyan smiled: "It's better to use ice." β
"Then I won't eat it, I'll eat it when it's chilled." Feng Hua immediately stopped.
Twenty jars are just filled, white porcelain with red cherry sauce, red and white.
Then put it all in the ice tank and chill it.
Lin Yanyan thought about it, and sent a can to each of the five of them, and then sealed a can of flowers, a can of Jing Yuan, and a can of Zhou Datong, hmm...... also gave Lu Zhaonan and Xiao Qian a can to taste, the third aunt a can, keep a can for herself, and leave the rest in the store for the guests to eat.
That's it.
Hui Niang said happily: "Cherries are not cheap, let's make cherry sauce and buy two taels of silver and a jar to make money." β
Hui Niang thought of a new way to expand her business and was very happy.
"Two-two-one-can? Are these twenty jars worth forty taels of silver? Jin Xin counted with his fingers. That's too profitable, right?
Lin Yanyan smiled: "This white porcelain jar doesn't need money?" β
"That's it, this white porcelain jar costs 500 yuan a piece! There is also honey, sugar. Mr. Liu agreed.
"Moreover, the cherry season is short, and there are not many of them at this time, so two taels of silver are sold cheaply, and this is worth five taels and one can."
Five taels? Everyone was dumbfounded, okay, Miss said that five taels is five taels, but five taels of silver will really anyone pay for it?
