Escape after crossing

Chef Huang looked at them with a smile on his face, and then said, "Don't be so angry, Miss Jiang has already said that we can make this dish, especially since Miss Jiang was not on guard against us when she was cooking, right?"

It was only then that the chefs realized that Jiang Ziluo had just fried two pots without asking them to leave, and that the ingredients were put in right in front of them.

Thinking of this, several people couldn't help but feel hot on their faces, feeling a little embarrassed. They had just been doubting others, judging others by their own standards. But in the end, the other person didn't care at all.

Jiang Ziluo didn't know what the others were thinking, but looking at their expressions, he should be able to guess a little. However, if Jiang Ziluo knew their true thoughts, he would inevitably tell them.

(I am counting on this to make more money. If I don’t let you know how to make and eat it, how can I make money? If I don’t make money, she will be poor again!!!)

Jiang Ziluo is not a money-grubber. Didn't he just spend a large sum of money? Wouldn't he have to spend another sum of money later? He has a place to live, but he still needs to eat and drink. Doesn't this all cost money?

Jiang Ziluo thought that the speed of earning money was not as fast as the speed of spending money, so he had to speed up. Just then, the shopkeeper who had gone to handle the transfer came back and saw that everyone was in the kitchen, so he asked.

"What's going on? Are you all crowded in the kitchen?"

The waiter beside him turned around and saw that it was the shopkeeper, and hurriedly hid the crayfish in his hand behind his back. If you didn't know, you would think that he was afraid of the shopkeeper's punishment.

Actually, the waiter was afraid that the shopkeeper would snatch the crayfish, but he forgot that the shopkeeper had been away just now and didn't know that such delicious food existed.

The chefs who heard the shopkeeper's voice were delighted, and hurriedly pulled the shopkeeper over and spoke.

"Boss, this girl said that our restaurant can sell this dish. Please ask someone to prepare more crayfish."

"Yes, boss, you don't know, this crayfish tastes really good!"

"Yes, now think about how much good things we have wasted in the past. I dare say that with this dish, our restaurant business will be even better."

"Wait, what crayfish? Aren't there just some ingredients on this plate? Also, is there too much chili? Isn't it spicy?"

Speaking of adding chili peppers, Jiang Ziluo didn't put too much, but now there was only chili peppers left on the plate, so it looked like a lot. Everyone ate the crayfish but no one said it was spicy.

When the chefs heard the shopkeeper asking what crayfish was, they all pointed to the red beetle. The shopkeeper was also confused when he saw it was the red beetle, and couldn't help asking Jiang Ziluo.

"Girl, is this a crayfish? Where is it called that?"

This question stumped Jiang Ziluo. She couldn't say that people in later generations all called it that, right? But she couldn't think of it at the moment. What should she do?

"It is called crayfish because it looks very similar to deep-sea lobsters, but it is much smaller than deep-sea lobsters, so it is called crayfish."

"Deep sea? Lobster? Have you really seen it, girl?"

"I've seen it in a book!"

"Hey, boss, what do you call it? The main thing is that it tastes good. If you sell it in a restaurant, it will definitely be popular."

The chef in the small county town, even though he could read and had read books, had not read much after all. He was unwilling to delve into the matter further and directly interrupted the shopkeeper's question.

But the shopkeeper didn't taste it. After hearing what they said, he didn't want to agree so quickly. So he looked at Jiang Ziluo and wanted to ask Jiang Ziluo if he could make some more for him.

But the words were on the tip of his tongue but he couldn't say them. He still remembered the secret letter he received, and he was still a little afraid of Jiang Ziluo. After all, in all these years, he seemed to have never heard why his master had been so troubled.

Jiang Ziluo saw what the shopkeeper meant and said with a smile, "Don't worry, I'll ask Mingyue to buy something else. When she comes back, we'll cook together and have lunch together."

"Listen to the young lady, everyone, hurry up and get busy. Don't crowd here, everyone, get busy. Young lady, follow me." The shopkeeper drove everyone away and then said to Jiang Ziluo.

Jiang Ziluo looked at it and saw that it was almost done, except that there were still some garlic cloves left that had not been chopped. But it was not a big deal, it could be done in a while. The shopkeeper's matter was more important.

Arriving at the backyard, the shopkeeper looked around to see that there was no one around, so he took out the land deed that had just been transferred and handed it to Jiang Ziluo.

"Miss, this is the land deed. When I went to the county government office just now, the lawyer told me that the 300 acres of fertile land around this house will be sold out in a while, but the news will not be spread out."

"Why is that? Aren't these fields owned by people? Why did you know about this in advance?"

"These fields were actually bought privately by the county magistrate, and then rented out to nearby villagers for cultivation, but the rent was 20% higher than the market price."

“Then there are still people rushing to farm, right?”

"Yes, there will be some in the first two years, but since it was originally his land, naturally there is no way to judge the situation. Gradually, no one dares to go there. But in order to keep their family alive, there are still people who rent those fields every year."

"Your master has always known about this, right?"

"Girl, this..."

Jiang Ziluo understood that the Prince of Zhenxi's Mansion was originally a bit of an eyesore in the eyes of the king. If Leng Chenming intervened again, the Prince of Zhenxi's Mansion and the Zhenxi Army guarding the border would be in trouble!

Jiang Ziluo just asked this question, and when he saw that the shopkeeper was having trouble answering it, he didn't continue to dwell on the issue.

"Why did Master tell you this? Do you want me to find someone to buy these 300 acres of land?"

"I already had a friendship with that master, and he told me this as a reminder."

"By the way, why did the county magistrate sell so much land at this time? Did the county magistrate issue a transfer order?"

"I haven't heard of any transfer order. I think the county magistrate wants it for his son."

"Does the county magistrate have only this one son?"

"Well, he got addicted to gambling in the past two years. From time to time, I would hear about how much gambling debts the county magistrate's son owed."

"That's not the case. It won't make the county magistrate use his family's wealth, right? I heard that a young county magistrate gets 300 silver coins after three years of service. The county magistrate was able to get acres of land, so how could he sell it so easily?"

"To be honest, young lady, the master has been secretly making trouble for him over the years, but it can only be done in secret and cannot be seen in public, so the county magistrate has restrained himself."

"How much money did you lose in this bet? How ...

"I heard it was 200 million taels of silver."

"Is this county magistrate always able to help his son pay off his gambling debts? Doesn't he have the final say in this county? This gambling house should have ceased to exist a long time ago, right?"

"Haha, young lady, you don't know that wherever there is a Huajianfu Restaurant, there is a gambling house. Everyone knows that Huajianfu Restaurant is the private property of the Princess of Zhenxi, so no one dares to stop the gambling house from opening.

This is also the reason why the county magistrate dared not default on his gambling debts every time. Almost no one came to the Zhenxi King who doted on and loved his princess very much, and the Zhenxi King was also the famous General Zhenxi.

Moreover, since the master took over, the casino has had some unknown rules. Anyone with a small amount of money can come to gamble, and those without money can owe money. However, if anyone dares to cause trouble or refuse to acknowledge gambling debts, then you will have to bear the consequences yourself. "
