Quanji Restaurant is the largest restaurant in Gaoqiao Town, with five open fronts, divided into two floors.

It is said that it was opened by a nobleman, and there are countless Quanji restaurants across the country.

At this time, Lin Xue, Ah Jiu and Chen Yong stood at the door of the restaurant with a bucket.

There were several palm-sized fish swimming happily in the bucket.

Lin Xue was very nervous, her breathing was short, her eyes were a little flustered, and she walked into the restaurant with her head held high under Ah Jiu's urging.

The shopkeeper who greeted the customer glanced at the bucket in Chen Yong's hand, seemed to understand, led the person inside, and said as he walked: "The shopkeeper may be busy, you have to wait."

After saying that, he left the person in the backyard of the restaurant.

The backyard of the restaurant is very large, surrounded by rows of rooms, the floor is paved with stone slabs, and a few green pines decorate the backyard, making it look a little lively.

Lin Xue took a deep breath and whispered, "Sister Ah Jiu, if you teach them to make sauerkraut fish, will they really buy all our fish?"

Ah Jiu nodded firmly: "Definitely, although the sauerkraut fish is not the most delicious fish I have ever tasted, it is also unique, and I still want to eat it after eating it."

Lin Xue's heart was slightly relieved, and just as she wanted to say something more, she heard footsteps.

Someone's coming.

The three of them looked at each other in unison.

The person who came was an uncle of fifty or sixty years old, wearing a heavy cyan silk cotton robe, a black jade-encrusted belt around his waist, and a rabbit hair square hat on his head.

His name is Qin Hongfu, and when he saw the three of them, he didn't put on a lofty posture but smiled slightly, and asked, "Do you want to sell fish to our restaurant?"

Lin Xue nodded, and the person became nervous again, and stumbled and said, "We have a lot of fish, and I want to sell them to you."

Qin Hongfu smiled slightly again, and his eyes fell on the fish in the bucket, their restaurant has very high requirements for ingredients, and such fish is barely qualified.

After thinking about it, he said: "I can accept your fish, but everyone is poor these days, and there are not many people who eat fish, so the price is not high, and it has to be lower than in previous years."

Hearing this, the tension in Lin Xue's heart slowly dissipated, the fish pond was bought by her sister for one hundred and fifteen taels, if the fish can't be bought, or if it is cheap, it will be a loss.

If you accept a cheap price this year, you will be even lower the next year, just like the herbs they bought at home.

Before my sister sold it, it was fifteen taels at a time, and everyone in the back, including their family, couldn't sell it at such a high price, because someone accepted the low price, so it would be lower and lower.

No, that's their money.

Thinking of this, Lin Xue raised her head and said with a firm gaze: "Uncle, I heard Sister Ah Jiu say that there is a shortage of food and clothing everywhere now, so I think it is impossible for the price of food that can fill my stomach to be lower than in previous years."

Qin Hongfu smiled again, his smile was brighter than just now, and he said slowly: "This fish has a fishy smell, and there are not many people who love to eat it."

In fact, their restaurant either can't make fishy fish, or it's too material-consuming, and no one can afford to eat it, so they don't toss.

Lin Xue breathed shortly and said, "Uncle, I can teach you a dish, which is to make fish, and the ingredients used are in addition to this fish, only sauerkraut is needed, and the fishy smell you said is gone."

"Oh." Qin Hongfu took two steps closer with interest and said, "Then the little girl, please come here."

Lin Xue glanced at the direction Qin Hongfu was pointing, which was the location of the kitchen, and hurriedly shook her head: "You haven't discussed with me what price you will buy my fish at what price."

Qin Hongfu put his hands behind his back and said lightly: "I haven't seen the dishes you said yet, shouldn't I taste the dishes before making a decision?"

Lin Xue thought about it, so she said, "Okay, but you can't send someone to watch me."

After saying that, he walked into the kitchen, and it turned out that the kitchen was busy, with six or seven chefs, as well as side dishes and dishes, a room full of people, and it seemed that it was impossible to let them all go out.

Chen Yong followed behind Lin Xue with a bucket, and was a little dumbfounded when he saw this situation, it was his father and wife who came to talk and deliver fish before, but he had never come, and now he didn't know what he was going to do.

Ah Jiu looked at Lin Xue stunned, nudged her, and said, "It's okay, you have to have confidence, eat the fish you made, this shopkeeper will definitely buy your fish."

"You don't have to be afraid that they will learn and not buy your fish in the end, and I will be the master for you."

Ah Jiu, who said this, had her own aura, as if she had the final say in the whole world.

Lin Xue nodded, strode over, and fished the fish out of the bucket.

She's not good at killing fish, so she's clumsy to do it.

A young man with side dishes couldn't stand it anymore and said, "Little girl, I'll help you get it."

Lin Xue said gratefully: "Okay, thank you, please help me cut thin slices."

Youth: "Is it okay to be so thin?"

"It's a little thinner, yes, that's how thick."

After speaking, Lin Xue looked at the onlookers who stopped and asked, "Do you have sauerkraut here?" The best of the old altar. ”

The side dish masters looked at Qin Hongfu who was standing at the door.

Qin Hongfu nodded slightly, signaling that they could take it.

The sauerkraut was taken out from under the table, Lin Xue went up and sniffed it, and said, "This sauerkraut is not sour enough, it is not as good as the pickled ones in our village."

No one answered her words, and the master who took the sauerkraut coughed awkwardly, they advertised that the ingredients in the town were the best.

The sauerkraut fish was not cooked for a long time, but the temperature in the kitchen was high, and fine sweat broke out on Lin Xue's forehead.

Seeing this, Ah Jiu took out a handkerchief to wipe Lin Xue's sweat very intimately, and said with a smile: "You are so happy, it is the first time for me to wipe someone's sweat."

Lin Xue raised her eyes to look at Ah Jiu, she didn't know Ah Jiu's true identity, but she guessed that Ah Jiu's family must be rich, very rich.

Because Ah Jiu generously took a jade bracelet to her grandmother on the first day she arrived at her house, and then kept complaining that her family was small, and then she disliked her family's food was not delicious, and finally asked for a big bucket for her to bathe.

I heard that bathing is something that only young ladies from large families do, like them, they all carry a bucket of water to the shower room, and just wash it casually.

"Thank you, Sister Ah Jiu, if the fish are all sold, I'll go back and cook you a new dish in the evening." Lin Xue said with a smile.

"New dishes?"

Ah Jiu was very interested, and then asked, "It's better than sauerkraut fish?"

"You'll find out when you get back." Lin Xue said and put the sauerkraut fish in a beautiful white jade bowl.

Ah Jiu sniffed, got up early and ate a little until now, touched his stomach, and said, "I'm hungry."

"You can't eat when you're hungry, this is for uncle." Lin Xue is a serious way.

Ah Jiu pursed his mouth, his big eyes were misty because of the smoke, and he looked at Lin Xue with watery eyes.

Lin Xue saw that she felt a bit like her family was strong, and she couldn't help but coax: "Sister Ah Jiu, I'll do it for you when I go back."
