The family gathered around the table and talked about their feelings while eating fruit ice cream.

Zheng: "It's sweet and sour, it tastes good, and it's sweet but not greasy, and I don't feel a toothache after eating it." ”

Father Shen: "Although it looks good, I feel that I can eat it as a man, it is cold and cold, and it is also very relieving of the heat!" ”

Zheng Erzhu: "En, it's delicious!" ”

Shen Shiliu smiled, Zheng Erzhu said this is the same as not saying it.

"Pomegranate, is there anything else?" Zheng Erzhu asked, his eyes still shining.

Shen Shiliu nodded: "Yes, yes, but this thing is cold after all, and eating too much will cause a stomachache!" ”

Zheng Erzhu didn't care, just went to the kitchen to dig some more.

Shen Shiliu was helpless, Zheng Erzhu just couldn't lose his mouth, so he went with him.

"Dad, I want a tool, I don't know if Dad can help me think of a trick." Shen Pomegranate and Shen's father said that they needed to stir this thing, but it was too tiring to mix it by hand, and they could see if they could make a tool, even if they were still manual, they could save some effort.

When Father Shen heard this, he said, "What you said is a bit complicated, let me study it first." ”

Shen Shiliu nodded: "Well, there are R&D funds, if you need anything, just take the money." ”

Father Shen smiled and said, "Now there is not even an account room at the counter, why haven't you found this person yet?" ”

Shen Shiliu was also very helpless: "We just came, strangers don't know our depth if they want to come, the notice has been posted for several days, and there is no one to ask, I will let Du Xuanmo help me find it tomorrow, there are many people in the yamen!" ”

"Okay, there is an account room to help you share, and you will be able to rest more, at this time, the money is enough, or the body is important!" Shen's father said that since Shen Pomegranate lost weight, no matter how he looked at it, he felt that his daughter's figure was guaranteed, although it was good-looking, but it was not as solid as before, and he was afraid that Shen Pomegranate would burn his body.

"I know Dad, I'll pay attention!" Shen Shiliu said with a smile, his father doesn't talk much on weekdays, and she definitely wants to listen to the occasional word.

Early the next morning, Shen Pomegranate directly baked the cake with the little butter left, served a little cheese, and smeared it with the cake to eat, a total of four people, baked ten cakes, Shen Pomegranate was afraid of fat, so he ate one, and the remaining one person had three, and there was no one left.

"It seems that our pancakes can also be upgraded!" Shen Shiliu said, this thing is not bad at all.

Father Shen saw that this thing was so delicious, even if he didn't sell it, it would be good to eat it at home, so he stepped up his research, and later went directly to the account to pay the money and went outside to find materials.

Shen Pomegranate was cooking in the morning while studying new dishes, only a fruit ice cream is far from enough, and ice cream is also the most basic, except for the milky fragrance has no other attributes, as soon as I was free in the afternoon, I went to the grain store.

"What? Once the wheat was sold, it was sold at double the price before? Shen Pomegranate looked at the price tag, and felt that the grain store was like robbing money.

The grain store couldn't help it, the boss said: "This price is not old and decrepit, it is really that the food is getting more and more scarce now, and the yamen has also spread the news, the money to buy grain is becoming more and more scarce, and the food is now skyrocketing overnight, and the people are still rushing to it!" ”

Shen Shiliu frowned, feeling that things were not good, the yamen would leak this kind of news, didn't it make the people panic!

In the end, he didn't buy any wheat, so Shen Shiliu went directly to the yamen to find Du Xuanmo.

Du Xuanmo saw Shen Shiliu coming and took Shen Shimei to the yamen to talk, he thought that Shen Shimei was here to ask the bookkeeper about it, so he said: "After my mother brought me a message, I found someone, and that person should go to your store tomorrow." ”

"So fast, you're still reliable!" After Shen Shiliu finished speaking, he remembered that he didn't mean this today.

Shen Shiliu told the news about the leakage of the Yamen, and the grain merchants began to raise the price of grain, and the more Du Xuanmo listened, the darker his face became.

"This is the case, in this way, the price of food is raised, even if you have money, the grain you collect will be half the effort, and if you don't get it right, it will be a drop in the bucket!" Du Xuanmo said indignantly.

Shen Shiliu asked, "Do the people in the yamen see you as a thorn in their eyes?" "She suspected that someone had deliberately poked out the affairs of the yamen!

"Naturally, there are, maybe these things are also done by these people, just so that I can't harvest food, and I can't explain it to Xiangye!" Du Xuanmo said.

Shen Shiliu also felt that the situation was not good, so he heard Du Xuanmo say: "It's nothing for me, but the grain can't be harvested, and the people will suffer in the end!" ”

The two were silent, and at this time, someone outside came in and said that Han Shuliang was here.

As soon as he heard that Han Shuliang was coming, Shen Shiliu said: "If you can't do it, you will collect grain from other places, and let them go up if the local price increases!" ”

When Du Xuanmo heard this, he said, "I'll go to Han Shuliang to discuss first, and you should go back early!" ”

Shen Shiliu nodded and hurriedly went out. met Han Shuliang halfway, and the two also exchanged pleasantries.

"Brother Shuliang, are you here to deliver food again?" Shen Shiliu said hello.

Han Shuliang smiled and nodded: "Yes, are you leaving?" ”

Shen Shiliu nodded, and without much delay, he asked Han Shuliang to go in quickly.

There was such a big deal in the grain store, and Shen Shimei stopped going to the grain store and went home first.

On the other side, Du Xuanmo and Han Shuliang were also having a profound conversation, the grain merchants were raising the price of grain, and Han Shuliang was responsible for supplying grain to the government on the side of Anyang County, Du Xuanmo was thinking about how to persuade Han Shuliang not to follow the rising tide.

Han Shuliang was not in Fengyang County, and he didn't know the situation in Fengyang County, but after listening to Du Xuanmo and Pantuo, he said: "If it were me, I would like to sell the grain to the government even if I don't increase the price, but I only collect the grain, and if the people in the village choose to sell the grain to the grain merchants with high prices, I won't be able to take it out." ”

"Except for Anyang County, I think the rest of the places should not be affected by the grain harvest, after all, it is not a large-scale disaster, even if it is coaxed, it is only partial." Du Xuanmo said.

Han Shuliang pondered that the cost of transportation to other places is also a lot of expenses, so he said: "I'll try, if the cost can be controlled, then the price of grain on my side will not rise!" ”

Du Xuanmo was relieved and said, "Thank you, there are really not many people I can trust now." ”

"You don't have to thank me, if it wasn't for the pomegranate that was worth this road to me, I might only be able to be a banker, how can I have the ability to do it now!"

"Brother Han talks about love, which is different from those mercenary businessmen, I have written down this love." Du Xuanmo said that he also took a risk when he gave the food to Han Shuliang, but now that he looks at it, he really didn't see the wrong person.

Han Shuliang smiled lightly: "Pomegranate didn't ask for anything in return for helping me build a line, so I naturally don't want Pomegranate to look down on me." ”

Du Xuanmo nodded, and asked people to send Han Shuliang out first, thinking in his heart if Han Shuliang was still thinking about Shen Pomegranate? At the beginning, Han Shuliang and Shen Shimei almost got engaged, although it didn't work out later, I heard that Han Shuliang's mother stopped it, Han Shuliang didn't mean to be unwilling, and now it's ......

"It seems that my fiancée is too good, and I also have a crisis...... Du Xuanmo smiled bitterly, just protect her daughter-in-law by herself, and the rest of the people should not come close.

Du Xuanmo wrote a letter and talked about the situation in the yamen here, including the price hikes by grain merchants and the deliberate leakage of news by someone in the yamen.

"Even if you don't say who it is, Xiangye will understand." Du Xuanmo said that he actually understood Xiang Ye's thoughts, and Xiang Ye's reuse of him was mainly to be able to have political achievements in the court, so that the emperor could always reuse himself.

And those who made Du Xuanmo bad behind their backs were nothing more than jealous that Du Xuanmo was in the limelight in front of Xiangye and wanted to suppress him. But......

"Now that my road is broken, it is nothing more than letting Xiangye also cut off the road!" Du Xuanmo sneered, the way of officialdom is treacherous, but he is not an existence that can be easily used as a stepping stone!

In the evening, when Du Niangzi came to pick up the meal, Shen Shimei specially brought the fruit ice cream she made to Du Niangzi.

"...... this?" Du Niangzi also saw this thing for the first time and asked.

"Fruit ice cream, eat less to relieve the heat, but eat too much and have a cold stomach, just don't be greedy for cold!" Shen Pomegranate said, she had made such a big cream before, and if her father couldn't study it again, it would be cut off tomorrow.

Du Niangzi didn't know what the "Ice Kirin" was, but it looked good.

"Auntie, send it over first, this thing will melt quickly!" Shen Shiliu said with a smile.

As soon as Du Niangzi heard this, she hurriedly took three steps all the way and hurried to the yamen, afraid that the thing would really melt.

There was basically no one in the yamen at this point in time, and it was quiet in the yamen when Du Niangzi sent the meal.

"Originally, I was thinking about going home with you to eat today, but Pomegranate said that the things I brought to you today were afraid of melting, so I would eat them at Yamen." Du Niangzi brought out the fruit ice cream as she spoke.

Du Xuanmo looked at it and smiled: "Pomegranate has a new dish again?" ”

Du Niangzi said with a smile: "It is said that it is a fruit ice unicorn, and when it is dessert, you have to eat before you can eat it." ”

The mother and son ate ice cream after eating, and the reaction was similar to that of the Shen family couple.

"Pomegranate specially instructed not to eat more, for fear that you would be greedy and have a stomachache." Du Niangzi said.

"I know, it's not early, let's go home first." Du Xuanmo got up, and when he walked to the door of the restaurant, he looked at the dim candle flame in the restaurant.

When Du Niangzi saw her son like this, she said, "Do you want to drink pomegranates and say a few words?" Mother will go home and wait for you first. ”

Du Xuanmo smiled and nodded, and after separating from Du Niangzi, he went to the happy private restaurant.

Shen Pomegranate sat in the lobby and was studying the new menu, the ice cream should be made into a wheat flavor, and it could be sold without fruit at that time!

Seeing Du Xuanmo coming in, Shen Shimei's eyes lit up.

"Come at this time, won't your mother talk about you?" After Shen Shiliu finished speaking, he went to the door to take a look.

Du Xuanmo smiled: "My mother knows that I came here, and she has already gone back first." ”

Shen Shiliu pulled Du Xuanmo to sit down, and the two of them were busy with their own work, and they still hadn't spoken together properly for a long time.
