Chapter 301: It's a fool not to earn money if you have silver
Ling Qiu raised the price again, but Sister-in-law He was completely indifferent: "Mr. Ling, I have already sworn a poisonous oath on my own, if Miss Madam doesn't drive me away, I will never leave the Xia family in my life." Don't say 200,000 taels, if you give me 1 million taels, 10 million taels, I won't leave. ”
At this moment, Ling Qiu's face was completely devoid of a smile, and he looked at Sister-in-law He with a shocked expression.
It is said that the poor mountains and bad waters are the people, and he never imagined that in such a poor and remote place, he would see such a backbone woman.
She looks like an ordinary village woman, but that realm is much higher than ordinary people.
Ling Qiu sighed and shook his head, for this kind of person, tempting her with a lot of money was simply an insult to her.
Seriously, he was convinced.
Thinking about it carefully, this is the first time in his life that he admires a woman.
Xia Yan is not as high as the two of them, and her heart is dripping blood at this moment.
When Ling Qiu offered 100,000 taels, even she wanted to agree for Sister-in-law He.
Isn't it stupid to have silver that doesn't make money?
Before she could persuade Sister-in-law He, Ling Qiu offered 200,000 taels!
At that moment, Xia Yan actually had the idea of showing his hand in front of Ling Qiu and then going to the Bliss Academy to be a cook.
200,000 taels a year, which is much faster than her business. She has been in this business for five years, and she has saved less than 400,000 taels. If she went to the Bliss Academy, she would be able to earn so much in less than two years, so what was she delaying here?
Only then did she know how rich the Bliss Academy was, and she knew that she was just a frog at the bottom of a well, and even if those gate sects were extravagant and wasteful, they always had their own background.
At a critical time, Xia Yan still held back.
If you go to a place where no one knows you to be a cook, it's just that, but that place is Uncle Yang's territory, if you know that you ran to work for them for the silver, you don't know how to laugh at yourself.
But...... So much silver slipped away from my eyes...... It's really distressing......
After Sister-in-law He said those words, she put the fruits she was holding on the three tables, and then she bowed to Xia Yan and Ling Qiu and retreated.
Until he couldn't see Sister-in-law He at all, Ling Qiu shook his head and said to Xia Yan: "Little sister, it seems that we have no chance to enjoy the food. ”
"That's not going to happen." Xia Yan was very moved by Sister-in-law He's firmness and loyalty, but it was not her style at all to put so much money and not earn it.
"Do you still know someone whose craftsmanship is comparable to that of Sister-in-law He?" Ling Qiu's eyes lit up, "Who is this person, quickly introduce it to me!" ”
"I don't know any cooks." Xia Yan said nonsense with her eyes open, she knew a lot of cooks, but if she introduced her to Ling Qiu, how could she earn money from him?
"That ......" Ling Qiu's face darkened, and he always felt that this little girl was playing tricks on herself.
"Uncle Ling, you must know that although the quality of cooking determines the taste of the meal, the ingredients are also a crucial part." Xia Yan said with a smile.
Ling Qiu nodded, agreeing with Xia Yan's statement.
"I don't have a good cook to introduce you, but I have a lot of good ingredients." Xia Yan smiled.
"How good?" Ling Qiu clearly refused to believe it, he had investigated the family before, and knew that this girl named Xia Yan had opened several shops in the county town, and he also knew that the ingredients sold by her family were very different from ordinary ingredients.
Those ingredients, he also let people buy them, and they tasted a little more than ordinary vegetables, and there was nothing particularly worth making a fuss about.
If there is anything worth eating, it is the flour that food sells in the sky, and this is the only thing that can enter the eyes of the disciples.
The steamed buns made from that flour look as white as jade, and they taste indescribably sweet. Therefore, this kind of flour is quite popular in the Bliss Academy.
As for the rest, it's not crazy enough, he can only say that the people here are too uninformed.
Xia Yan didn't know that the Paradise Academy had already sent someone to buy his own vegetables, but even if he did, he would laugh at them for not having common sense.
Qin County is at least ten days away from the Bliss Academy, and even if the fruits and vegetables are bought, they will not be fresh by the time they are transported to the Bliss Academy. Although the spiritual spring water has been watered, it can be preserved for some time compared to ordinary vegetables, but because it is watered with spiritual spring water that is diluted I don't know how many times, the freshness effect does not last long at all. Even if it is good if it is not rotten when it is transported to the Bliss Academy, what kind of taste can it be guaranteed?
Although the Ruyi Chamber of Commerce is farther away from Qin County, those vegetables will be deliberately processed by Xia Yan before each transportation, and the preservation effect is naturally much better than those bought back by the Bliss Academy.
To be honest, this is really resentful of Xia Yan, who asked them to buy it without telling the guys in the shop in advance. If they were told, they would inform Xia Yan of the matter in advance, so that she could dispose of the vegetables that were to be transported, and save them all having to change their taste when they were shipped back.
However, this can't be blamed on the group of scholars.
They know that they enjoy reading on weekdays, not only do they not distinguish between grains and grains, but they also don't know that firewood, rice, oil and salt are expensive. In their hearts, there is no awareness that vegetables should be kept fresh. What they eat every day is processed, as long as they can eat and be praised, they don't know anything else.
The flour was more durable than the vegetables, so naturally it became a regular guest at their dinner table, so that they never ate ordinary flour again.
In fact, this kind of result can be regarded as because of the people of the Bliss Academy.
Originally, the disciples of the academy were not responsible for purchasing, but at that time, they didn't know which style they were smoking, so they actually volunteered to buy vegetables in person.
As a result, there were a few disciples who didn't know anything about these things but loved food very much, and there was this Zhuang oolong thing.
Those disciples still complained about the freshness of vegetables and the sweetness of fruits, thinking that these two shops had deceived themselves, and the taste was so delicious when they tried it, but when they arrived at the academy, it was no longer the same taste as before. Not only was he not praised, but he was scolded by his brothers and sisters.
Seeing that Ling Qiu didn't seem to believe him, Xia Yan smiled, picked up an apple from the table and handed it to Ling Qiu: "Uncle Ling, if it's true or not, you can know by tasting it." ”
Ling Qiu didn't want to eat that apple, but the apple was in excellent condition, and it made people have an appetite when they looked at it, but they could taste it.
So he took the apple from Xia Yan's hand and took a bite of it.
Ling Qiu had just chewed a few times, and he was stunned on the spot, looking at the apple in his hand in disbelief.
I can't believe that there are such delicious apples in the world! Sweet and sour, crispy and juicy, just a few bites of the apple will make you want to swallow the whole apple in your stomach.
"Little ...... Little sister. Ling Qiu swallowed the apple in his mouth and resisted the urge to take another bite immediately, "Why don't you sell these fruits in the sweetness of your fruits?" ”
"Uncle Ling, what are you talking about?" Xia Yan tilted his head, "There are those sold in the sweetness of the fruit, but now is the season to eat apples, and there are a lot of sweetness in the fruit." ”
"No...... No way. Ling Qiu swallowed his saliva, he really wanted to take another bite quickly, but because he wanted to talk to Xia Yan, he could only endure it, "We have bought your vegetables and fruits before, although they are better than those sold in other places, but they don't have this taste at all." ”
"Uncle, you probably bought it from the shop and pulled it back to the Bliss Academy." Xia Yan asked.
"That's right." Ling Qiu nodded, "Originally, it was meant to be used by the academy, where could it be transported if it wasn't directly pulled back to the academy?" ”
Ling Qiu's answer was the same as his own conjecture, Xia Yan sneered and laughed: "Uncle Ling, when you bought vegetables and fruits, didn't you explain to your buddies that these things were going to be shipped to distant places?" ”
"How?" Ling Qiu was a little puzzled, "Could it be that the guys in your shop can still help with the delivery?" ”
"Not really." Xia Yan continued to smile, "But if you let them know in advance, we can also help you process the fruits and vegetables, so that they can stay fresh for a long time, so that the fruits and vegetables will not change their taste when they arrive." ”
The expression on Ling Qiu's face suddenly froze, to be honest, he really didn't know that vegetables and fruits were preserved. When they were at the Bliss Academy, they only ate ready-made food, and who would know that.
"Uncle Ling, you ate this apple, but it hasn't been long since it was picked from the tree." Xia Yan smiled, "How is it, it tastes good." ”
Ling Qiu nodded.
It's not just good, it's delicious.
He swore that if the disciples of the academy ate this kind of apple, they would only sneer at the apples elsewhere in the future.
Suddenly, Ling Qiu remembered that Sister-in-law He had brought three plates of fruit just now, and those disciples didn't know if they had eaten it.
He turned his head to scan it, and saw that the large plates were long empty, and there was still an apple. And the disciples who came with him were gnawing on one by one, enjoying their faces.
It's no wonder they're like this, it's because those apples are so good-looking.
Although the disciples of the Bliss Academy like food, they don't eat everything, and if that thing looks ugly, they won't look at it even if it's delicious.
When they saw the bright red apples on the table, they couldn't help but eat them, and this eating was out of control.
"Uncle Ling, not only are the fruits in my house delicious, but even the taste of vegetables is wonderful." Xia Yan smiled sweetly, "Do you want me to give you some to taste?" ”
"No need." Ling Qiu's face was disgusted, he had never had the habit of eating raw vegetables, in his opinion, it was just a barbarian's way of eating.
Xia Yan didn't seem to hear Ling Qiu's refusal, and smiled mysteriously: "Uncle Ling, you wait here, I'll come when I go." ”
After speaking, Xia Yan turned around and walked out of the dining hall.
After a while, she walked over to Ling Qiu with a plate.
"Uncle, you can taste it." Xia Yan handed Ling Qiu a pair of chopsticks and said with a smile.
"What is this?" Ling Qiu looked at the red and white filaments, and couldn't help but have a great appetite, and couldn't help but ask.
"You taste it first, and I'll tell you." Xia Yan put the chopsticks into Ling Qiu's hand.
Ling Qiu looked at the contents of the plate, he was really a little curious, and couldn't help but take a bite and put it in his mouth. Take a hundred plating to read the latest chapter of "Ugly Girl Makeover: Gao Leng Wangye, Please Respect the Claw Book House" for free for the first time.
