Traveling through time and space to meet a replacement bride? But I’m a man!
Chapter 257 Invitation
We have to wait until everyone in the village has finished their work before we can start working.
Today Xu Wenyan took potato flour to the county.
If they want to sell it, they can also be sold in Qing'an Pavilion, but Xu Wenyan doesn't just want to sell it in this county. It would be best if he could find someone responsible for transportation.
See if they are interested in this potato flour.
Speaking of transportation, the first person Xu Wenyan thought of was Zhang Chengjin. This gentle and handsome boy, whom he had only met twice, left a deep impression on him.
He had said before that his family was in the business of transporting tea.
The two hurried to the county town. Although they no longer needed a pass, routine inspections were still required. With the passes, the two were the first to enter the city.
"Brother Xu! You're finally here." Jia Anqing treated Xu Wenyan like his elder brother. He trotted forward, took Xu Wenyan's hand and walked inside: "Brother Xu, are you thirsty or hungry?"
"I'm not thirsty. How are the ramen sales these days?"
When Jia Anqing mentioned this, his face changed, and he sighed and shook his head: "Brother Xu, you don't know that there are only a few loyal customers eating ramen in the store now.
If we hadn't taken over your ramen business, Brother Xu, our store would have been completely wiped out."
Xu Wenyan also frowned slightly, thinking that this shouldn't be the case. Even if the people used the money to buy medicine, they wouldn't be so destitute. Besides, those who ate their noodles were still considered rich people.
"No way."
As he spoke, Jia Anqing looked at Wuzhou Fried Rice across the street and said, “I don’t know what’s wrong with them. They organized another half-price event, right after that half-price event.
Their business is just endless. Those who can’t even afford to eat are getting a little anxious. It’s no exaggeration to say they are trying to rob people.”
"So exaggerated?"
"Of course! I don't know what to do."
Xu Wenyan touched his chin and thought about this matter. Logically speaking, even if they reopened the business, the effect of the poppy shells would not be able to ferment so quickly.
unless......
After thinking roughly about the whole story, Xu Wenyan shook his head.
I’m afraid this Wuzhou fried rice won’t last much longer.
Xu Wenyan patted Jia Anquan's shoulder and said, "Let's not talk about that anymore. Let's take a look at the new stuff I brought."
"What what! What delicious food is this!"
After all, he was still a child, so Xu Wenyan took him into the kitchen, took out the dried potato vermicelli, soaked them in hot water, and then boiled them.
After cooking, I just added some of Jia Anqing’s favorite side dishes.
"Taste it."
"Oh! Brother Xu, what is this noodle made of? It's chewier than ramen! Very springy." Jia Anqing held the bowl and slurped the noodles, the spicy taste bursting in his mouth.
The more you sip this noodle, the more delicious it becomes. You can’t stop eating it.
"Little brother, how about your brother's powder?"
"Delicious! Very delicious, Brother Xu, this thing is called powder."
Xu Wenyan knocked on his head with his hand: "Hey, your head, I plan to mass-produce this powder, but I haven't found a partner yet."
"Partner?" Jia Anqing only half understood the word.
"I sell the powder to him, and he sells it to others, making a profit from the difference. Our relationship is a partnership, isn't it?"
"Oh oh oh, then Brother Xu, do you want to cooperate with me again? You are such a fan, I'm in favor." Jia Anqing didn't forget to sip a few mouthfuls of noodles while speaking.
This taste is really too addictive. Although the food I ate before also had flavor, it was far less layered than this potato flour.
It is smooth, numb, spicy, and has the aroma of fine grains.
Xu Wenyan just thought he was joking. How much money could such a small kid have?
"Just stay at the store and let me go out with your brother Chen."
At this time, our Mrs. Wen still has to be reliable. Xu Wenyan made an extra portion of potato flour and was waiting to send it to Mrs. Wen. Her husband was doing business with Zhang Chengjin.
It is very likely that he is also in the transport business and might have invested in it.
Today's trip to Wei Mansion went much more smoothly than before. When the clerk saw Xu Wenyan, he went straight to find Xu Jinhua. He couldn't handle this little ancestor.
Not long after, Xu Jinhua came over in a hurry: "Wen Yan, I have good news for you."
Xu Wenyan stopped her and said, "Give this powder to Madam Wen first, don't worry about it. I'll tell you the good news later."
There is no better news than Mr. Wei investing in his potato flour business.
"Ah? Oh oh." Although Xu Jinhua was a little confused, she still trotted in with the lunch box.
Xu Wenyan looked at the embarrassed clerk next to him and couldn't help but want to tease him: "Little brother, how come you are a gatekeeper in Wei Mansion at such a young age?"
"I...I'm fifteen!" said the clerk awkwardly.
Xu Wenyan knew he was lying as soon as she saw him. Just looking at his childish face, he looked only twelve or thirteen years old. "It's not good to lie."
The clerk didn't dare to say anything and just shrank back.
"Wen Yan, stop bullying Xiao He." Xu Jinhua ran back empty-handed: "Madam has eaten, and she said to pack ten more bowls for her."
Hearing this, Xu Wenyan showed joy on his face. As long as Mrs. Wen likes it, it's fine.
"Wen Yan, Brother Dashan is back."
"Oh, I see."
Xu Jinhua paused for a moment and said, "He...he works at the county government office. You should go visit him when you have time."
"Well, let's talk about it later. Please ask Madam Wen if Mr. Wei wants to cooperate with me on this potato flour. This potato flour is the one I just sent in."
Seeing Xu Wenyan like this, Xu Jinhua always felt a little sad: "Okay, I'll go ask the lady."
After Xu Jinhua left, Chen Sanlin hugged him and said, "Are you really not going to take a look?"
Xu Wenyan shook his head: "Let's talk about it when we have the chance to meet each other in the future. Actually, I don't hate them, I just don't have any feelings for them."
"Well, I'll go with you whether you want to or not."
Xiao He always felt that there was something strange in the air, and moved away from the two people again.
This time the waiting time was a bit longer. After about two quarters of an hour, Jinhua appeared with an old man in dark purple clothes.
"You must be Mr. Xu and Mr. Chen, right?" the old man greeted with a smile.
Xu Wenyan also smiled and extended his hand. At this time, Xu Jinhua introduced: "Xu Wenyan, this is the chief steward of our Wei Mansion."
Xu Wenyan immediately understood: "So it's the chief steward."
The housekeeper still smiled kindly, and then handed an invitation to Xu Wenyan: "Mr. Xu, our master invites you to attend the business meeting in Feng County tomorrow, please be sure to attend."
Xu Wenyan took the invitation and nodded seriously.
"Whether you can seize this opportunity depends on Mr. Xu's ability." The butler nodded slightly and left.
Looking at the invitation, Xu Wenyan also understood Mr. Wei's intention.
