Chapter 133: Farewell to the capital with everyone
"Boss Jin, are you confused?" The guy at the Autumn Moon Restaurant laughed and shouted.
There were some diners in Qiuyue Restaurant, and they all looked sideways when they heard the movement.
Jin Xiaolou ignored the gazes of others, and said to himself: "Boss Tong, at this moment, Shanji is willing to pay eight hundred taels to buy Qiuyue, I hope you will think about it." ”
"Eight hundred taels? What a dream! Tong Song sneered, "Boss Jin, are you here to do something in my Qiuyue?" What do you want to do when you open and close your mouth and say something that doesn't make sense? ”
Jin Xiaolou smiled slowly, and said calmly: "I'm here to give Qiuyue a way to live, if you don't want eight hundred taels, then I'll pay seven hundred taels." ”
The people around laughed, how does this boss Jin do business, and he doesn't even know how to shout the price to a high place? This is getting cheaper and cheaper the more she shouts, could it be that she is here to play treasure?
It's just that Tong Song frowned.
He didn't believe that the boss of this mountain was stupid like this, there must be a reason for such behavior, especially seeing Jin Xiaolou's confident appearance, which made Tong Song feel a little panicked, and he always felt that he had fallen into a pit.
Jin Xiaolou saw that Tong Song had a calm face and did not speak, and continued slowly: "Boss Tong, don't think about it for too long, my price will only get lower and lower, don't miss the opportunity." ”
Tong Song took a deep breath and narrowed his eyes: "Then Boss Jin, tell me, what is the benefit if I promise you, and what is the harm if I don't agree?" ”
"That's right, you're on the point!" Jin Xiaolou smiled, "I heard Lu Yun say that Boss Tong spent a lot of money to buy all the ice cubes in Xinning Ice Cellar, not only spent all the old capital, but also borrowed two hundred taels of silver from Qian Zhuang. ”
Speaking of this, Lu Yun got angry and stared at Tong Song hatefully.
Tong Song didn't expect that this Jin boss would find out the bottom of his silver money clearly, and he was no longer proud of this proud matter, but became worried.
In front of so many guys, he couldn't admit it, but he was afraid that he would let them know that Qiu Yue owed a debt and panicked, so he had to be vague: "Boss Jin, don't beat around the corner, if you have something to say, just say it." ”
I only heard Jin Xiaolou say: "In this winter, I am afraid that only Boss Tong can do the stupid thing of spending money to buy ice cubes, this ice cube is more expensive than gold, and Boss Tong has no ice cellar to place it, you buy it back in the autumn moon and put it, and the river is frozen in two days, and no one is willing to give the ice cubes for nothing." ”
"Shanji is here to buy you Qiuyue at this moment, it's a charcoal in the snow." Jin Xiaolou raised his chin slightly, and looked at Tong Song with bright eyes, "If you agree, you can make a comeback with the silver to pay off your foreign debts; If you don't agree, you will lose all your money, and I'm afraid that you won't even be able to pay your guys' monthly money when the time comes. ”
"You ......" Tong Song's lips trembled.
Qiu Yue's men changed their faces one by one, and no one could laugh at the moment.
"I buy ice, because I have fresh dishes to come out." Tong loosened his mouth stiffly, "No one has eaten this kind of dish in the whole Da Zhou, as long as I make it, I am still worried that there is no money to make?" ”
"I'm afraid you won't be able to do it." Jin Xiaolou's tone was conclusive, "I think what you have to do is that fried ice cream, right?" ”
"That's right!" Tong Song no longer hid it, "Your girl is not strict with her mouth, that method has heard it in my ears, don't blame me for sharing this cup!" ”
"It's a pity, this new method is just my casual nonsense, you Qiuyue Restaurant can't do it even if you break the sky, and all the ice cubes of a thousand taels of silver have been lost." This fried ice cream was made up by Jin Xiaolou based on fried ice cream, but she didn't tell Lu Yun how to make ice cream, and the specific production steps were also made up and talked nonsense.
According to the recipe revealed by Lu Yun, he can't make any fresh and delicious dishes.
"Don't you want to trick me!" Tong Song's face was hideous, he roared, and immediately ran to the back kitchen.
He beckoned to the best cook in Autumn Moon, and according to the method that had been passed down from Lu Yun, he chiseled a small piece of ice, crushed it into crushed ice rice, mixed it with fresh milk and honey, stirred it, and wrapped it in a mixed flour dough.
Add firewood to the stove to make a big fire, and when you see that the oil is hot, you quickly get out of the pot and fry it.
It's just that when the dough on the outside is fried and crispy, the crushed ice inside has already turned into a packet of water.
After repeated retries several times, Tong Song finally believed Jin Xiaolou's words, his eyes were red, and he didn't know if it was the oil in the kitchen or the gas.
In fact, there is a key to this fried ice cream, that is, you need to bake a small bread naan with flour first, then dig up the bread, put the ice cream in the middle, and then wrap it in egg wash and fry it in the pan.
Because the bread is cooked, it can be fried and crispy in a short time on high heat, and it ensures that the ice inside does not melt.
However, Jin Xiaolou would not teach Tong Song these.
She sat outside drinking tea gracefully, just waiting for Boss Tong to come out of failure.
It didn't take long to see Tong Song walking over dejectedly, and just walked in front of Jin Xiaolou, his expression became vicious again: "It's you!" It's all a trap for you! ”
"Boss Jin, you are really a good means, send a little girl to make us around!" Tong was extremely angry, "Aren't you afraid of retribution?!" ”
Jin Xiaolou smiled coldly: "Boss Tong is not afraid of retribution, what am I afraid of?" ”
Tong Song was shocked, and then relaxed again, Da Chun had been executed, and he couldn't open his mouth anymore, and no one in the world would know about the things he had done.
It wasn't until this moment that Lu Yun came back to his senses, it turned out that these were all arrangements made by his shopkeeper, and the anger in his heart finally dissipated, and he once again admired the shopkeeper's ingenuity.
"Besides, if Boss Tong didn't have a crooked mind, how could he fall into my trap?" Jin Xiaolou just spent a hundred taels of silver to buy a trip to ice, and the rest of the things were done by Tong Song himself.
"Five hundred taels." Jin Xiaolou's voice was cold and hard, "Agree or not, Boss Tong can think clearly." ”
"You!" Tong Song was angry, "Good you Jin Xiaolou!" ”
When he turned his head, he saw that his own guy was looking at him worriedly.
Now that the family is empty, and there are foreign debts, not to mention the monthly money of the guys, and a farm in the suburbs has a lot of expenses every month.
Alas...... Tong Song sighed, he has been a restaurant in Xinning for so many years, one is the best in the city, how many restaurants and restaurants have been squeezed by him for so many years, and he never thought that he would capsize in the gutter today!
"I promise!" Tong Song was helpless, Jin Xiaolou was right, if he agreed, he would have a chance to make a comeback if he repaid the debt, if he didn't agree, he was afraid that the debt would roll more and more, and the price of this restaurant would only be lower at that time. "But five hundred taels can't be done, I want seven hundred taels!"
"Six hundred taels." Jin Xiaolou took a sip of tea and said, "This is the end of the month in a blink of an eye, and this month's income is all with you, and I have to send the monthly money." ”
Tong Song gritted his teeth: "Okay!" ”
……
In the evening, Shanji made shabu mutton, called the maid and a few cooks to the courtyard, and also found Chang'an, set up two tables, and everyone ate together.
Because of the death of the wing room on the left, Ruyi's room has been locked with a copper lock, and at this time, Lu Yun sat facing the room, and the white water vapor fluttered from the pot, so that her eyes were wet.
Lu Yun was timid and always a little scared, eating the mutton rolls fished out of the pot while squeezing Jin Xiaolou's side.
Jin Xiaolou saw the clue, stretched out his hand and stroked Lu Yun's back, and suddenly said to everyone: "Tomorrow we will leave for the capital, and this mountain will be returned to Sister Ruyue according to the previous agreement." ”
Before Jin Xiaolou's words fell, except for Chang'an, the rest of the people stopped their chopsticks in shock.
"Why, why are you in such a hurry!" Guo Ruyue almost stood up, "Didn't you say that you would have to stay for at least a year and a half?" Besides, this cinnamon branch hasn't been found yet......"
"Yes, this has just been harvested in Qiuyue, the two families are doing it together, shopkeeper, you are not here, how can we do it!" A little maid also chimed in.
"That Qiuyue was originally made in imitation of our mountain records, and there was almost no need to change anything after receiving it." Jin Xiaolou smiled softly, "Tonight I will write Zhang Fangzi and hand it to Sister Ruyue, you are smarter than me and more capable than me, you will definitely be able to do Shanji better!" ”
"As for Gui Zhi...... Jin Xiaolou's expression darkened, "No matter where I am, I will always look for her." ”
Lu Yun suddenly stretched out his hand and grabbed Jin Xiaolou: "Shopkeeper, Lu Yun is an orphan, if you don't dislike it, take Lu Yun to the capital together!" ”
Lu Yun has made a living on various occasions since she was a child, and she is used to seeing the cold eyes of all kinds of people, and she has also suffered a lot, only this Boss Jin is really good to her.
She didn't dare to forget the people who were kind to her, and she wanted to repay them.
"Lu Yun will not do anything else, he is not afraid of hardship, the shopkeeper does not bring a maid to the capital at first time, and he has to do everything himself, if Lu Yun follows, he can also help some." Lu Yun's eyes also turned red, his nose was sour, and his voice sounded like an urn when he said it.
"What a word! How can our shopkeeper suffer when he goes to the capital! The situation is like the moon, and the white green Yun looked, "The shopkeeper will only have an endless stream of glory and wealth!" ”
"Phew!" Lu Yun hurriedly turned around and snorted three times outside, "Yes, Lu Yun wants to follow the shopkeeper to the capital to enjoy happiness and see the world!" ”
"Hahaha." The big guys laughed together.
"Okay." Jin Xiaolou nodded, "Then I'll take you, and we'll go to the capital together to see and learn." ”
Lu Yun was so happy that her ears were red, and she nodded vigorously.
Ruyue is still reluctant: "Seeing that the New Year is coming, I am afraid that I will have to delay for two or three months when I go to the capital, or I will leave after the New Year?" ”
Jin Xiaolou shook her head, she promised Gao Lang to rush to the capital as soon as possible and send Wuli grass to the emperor, for the sake of Shanji, she had been delayed for two days, and she couldn't delay any longer.
In fact, Gao Lang could only let Chang'an run once, and deliberately sent Jin Xiaolou to the capital, but he was just asking for peace of mind, Xinning was not far from the Wuli River, and if the war expanded, it would definitely suffer first.
And the capital is at the foot of the Son of Heaven, and Gao Lang's own people are responding, thinking that it will make Jin Xiaolou live better.
Jin Xiaolou naturally knew Gao Lang's intentions, she was going to the capital, but it was just a matter of time sooner or later, she was willing to take this trip now, so that Gao Lang could rest assured.
It's just that it's a long way from Xinning to the capital, and Jin Xiaolou's first year here has only been on the road.
On such a long road, day after day in the carriage, I don't know if Lin'er can afford to eat.
That night, Jin Xiaolou picked up the lamp and wrote down all the dishes in the fast food restaurant he remembered, and wrote down the recipes in detail, and sat with his back stiff all night, his neck hurting.
When I finally finished writing and looked out the window, the sky was already starting to lighten.
Cover the quilt for Lin'er, push open the window to let the cool breeze blow a little spirited, and a few gray finches stopped on a row of eaves opposite the window, and heard the sound of the little gray finches flapping their wings and flying towards the blue sky together.
Jin Xiaolou handed over the recipe to Guo Ruyue, Lu Yun had already packed the things to bring on the road, and Chang'an rode a horse and waited outside the door of the Shanji store.
Jin Xiaolou said goodbye to everyone one by one.
Guo Ruyue finally kissed Lin'er, reached out and stroked the black eyes that Jin Xiaolou had stayed up all night with, and finally sent the person to the carriage.
The horses neighed, and the wheels of the car slowly turned.
Jin Xiaolou hugged Lin'er, sat in the carriage with the stove lit with Lu Yun, and set foot on the road to the capital.
