The dishes are placed on a large table, and the aroma is lingering.

Although Zheng Huanjie is the master, Huo Yao is a big official, and he is the one who invited the banquet, he has the most right to speak, he asked Mother Jin and Qing Candle to sit over and eat together, Zheng Huanjie usually eats with Mother Jin and Qing Candle, but more Huo Yao, you have to pay more attention.

Zheng Huanjie just wanted to say no, but thinking that without Mother Jin and Qingzhu sitting on the side, she might be touched by some scenes again and do something embarrassing, so she had to respond: "Listen to adults." ”

Mother Jin, Qing Candle, and Huo Yi sat down separately.

Huo Yi sat next to Huo Yao.

Mother Jin and Qing Zhu sat next to Zheng Huanjie, and the two groups of people sat opposite each other.

Mother Jin explained to Huo Yao:

"This is a new dish that the old slave went to learn to make with Granny Guan today, the dish is called stewed scallops with jade and flowers, the scallops are made of dried scallops, we have a lot of such scallops in Jiangzhou, the old slave has also made this dish before, but the method is different, today this dish is closer to the authentic practice of the sea, Lord Huo tastes whether it suits your taste."

Huo Yao took a dried scallop and put it in his mouth.

Jiangzhou people like fresh and fishy, but not all Yunzhou people like it.

It's just that seafood is also an excellent delicacy, but seafood is extremely rare in Yunzhou, so the price is extremely expensive, and ordinary people can't afford to eat it at all, and only a few rich and noble mansions will have these dishes on the table.

Others can't afford to eat, but Huo Yao is used to eating and eats every day, he marches to the sea all the year round, and the most he eats is seafood.

He has also eaten a lot of dried scallop dishes, and after chewing two bites, Huo Yao commented: "It's a little different from what I used to eat, and there are special things in it, right?" ”

"yes."

Mother Jin smiled and said, "I put the secret seasoning." ”

What kind of secret seasoning is it, of course Mother Jin won't say, and Huo Yao won't ask.

Huo Yao praised: "Mother Jin is a good craft." ”

Mother Jin said with a smile: "The old slave has lived in Jiangzhou for decades, if there is no such skill, it will be in vain, but this secret seasoning is not made by the old slave, it is learned from others today." Adults try this dish again, it is made of flower grape fish, and this spicy fumigation, which is made of pure dried fish, and this dish, Babao Jin fresh soup. ”

Huo Yao tasted a few bites one by one and raised his eyebrows: "It's all made of dry goods?" ”

"Yes, don't hide it, my girl will go to Yunzhou City soon, Yunzhou City is a place where dignitaries like adults live, my girl wants to survive there, there must be a way to make money, Jiangzhou is the richest in dry goods, the girl wants to go to Yunzhou City to do some dry goods business, let the old slave learn more cooking skills, and it is convenient to go."

Zheng Huanjie didn't expect that Mother Jin would tell Huo Yao about this matter directly, but she was not dissatisfied.

It doesn't really make a difference whether you say it in advance or later.

Letting Huo Yao know earlier was actually beneficial, so you could discuss the transportation with him in advance.

It would be better if he agreed.

If he doesn't agree, and doesn't matter, she can hire merchant ships.

In fact, Mother Jin is not a person who does not know proportion.

Mother Kim has her own plans.

These days, Jin's mother also saw that Huo Yao was a good official.

Especially Huo Yao's justice for the girl and the punishment of Zheng Shengrong and Xiang Rushan made Jin's mother see hope even more.

Mother Jin didn't know that Huo Yao liked Zheng Huanjie.

Mother Jin just thinks that Huo Yao is a good official, and he is from Yunzhou City, and the girl is going to Yunzhou City sooner or later, and if she wants to do business in Yunzhou City, someone has to cover her.

It would be nice if Master Huo could cover the girl.

Telling this in advance to this adult is also a sign of confession and temptation.

Huo Yao was slightly shocked.

He really didn't expect Zheng Huanjie to plan to do dry goods business in Yunzhou City.

Huo Yao looked at Zheng Huanjie: "What Mother Jin said is true?" ”

Zheng Huanjie nodded: "It's true." ”

Huo Yao was silent for a short time, and Ji'er said, "Do you plan to use Jiangzhou as a source of supply?" ”

"Yes."

"Jiangzhou is quite far away from Yunzhou, and sea thieves have always been rampant, Yunzhou City is not without dry goods business, they also want to take goods from Jiangzhou, after all, the largest seafood city may be Jiangzhou, but most people can not successfully transport the source of goods back to Yunzhou City, some goods will be directly robbed, some can leave a small part, this is also the reason why the seafood in Yunzhou City has been expensive, that is, dry goods, but also extremely scarce, if you can take down this market, in Yunzhou City, it is a great existence, but there are many ambitious people, However, very little can be realized, mainly because of the transportation problem. ”

Huo Yao hit the nail on the head and pointed out the most critical point, which was also the key point of Zheng Huanjie's consideration.

Zheng Huanjie raised her eyes and looked at him.

Obviously, she didn't have a heart, but Huo Yao read something from her eyes in a trance.

Huo Yao raised his eyebrows and asked with a smile, "Does Miss Zheng want me to help you?" ”

Zheng Huanjie asked rhetorically: "Will the adults help with this?" ”

Without waiting for Huo Yao to speak, she said again: "I won't let the adults help in vain, and I won't lose any of the profits and transportation costs that should be given." ”

Huo Yao smiled, picked up the chopsticks and continued to taste the food, and said: "There are many dignitaries and nobles in Yunzhou City, and there are also many merchant families, and there are even more people who are smarter and more ambitious than Miss Zheng, it's not the first time I've been asked for help, but I refused." ”
