Traveling through time and space to meet a replacement bride? But I’m a man!

Xu Wenyan couldn’t even carry all the accessories on her body.

There is a sachet around his waist, a peace locket on his chest, and a red rope given by Wang Cuijuan tied around his left wrist, and now there is an extra piece of white jade.

Let Xu Wenyan hang next to the sachet for the time being.

"Cousin, come here."

After letting Zhang Chengjin take a seat, Xu Wenyan went into the kitchen, took out a piece of milk tofu, and poured a little honey on the edge. That was it.

In order to make the county people eat more elegantly, Xu Wenyan divided the milk tofu into several small pieces.

The light presentation is just right, a bit like Michelin.

"What is this?" Zhang Chengjin looked at the milky white cubes that Xu Wenyan brought over, with a little honey on the edge.

It looks like it should be tofu. Can tofu be eaten with honey?

"You'll know after you taste it."

Zhang Chengjin smiled and nodded, then picked up a piece of milk tofu with chopsticks. It couldn't be tofu at this hardness.

After entering the mouth, the aroma of milk filled the mouth. When tasting carefully, the taste of sweet milk became stronger. Even in the capital, he had never eaten such a rich dairy product.

"My cousin is really amazing."

Xu Wenyan sat next to him and looked at Zhang Chengjin expectantly: "How is it? How is it? Is it delicious? How does it compare to the one in Beijing?"

Seeing Xu Wenyan's happy look, Zhang Chengjin laughed softly twice: "Haha, there is no such thing in Shangjing."

"But I've eaten the yogurt lumps that Mongolia sent as tribute, and I couldn't accept the taste of that thing. It also felt weird in my mouth. Although it's also made of milk, it's not as delicious as yours."

Xu Wenyan moved closer to Zhang Chengjin: "Really? Cousin, please don't lie to me."

As soon as they got a little closer, Chen Sanlin sat down next to Xu Wenyan, hugged his waist and pulled him back.

"Cousin won't lie to you, he's really nice." Zhang Chengjin saw Chen Sanlin behind him, his expression was obviously unhappy, but after facing Xu Wenyan, he immediately returned to his gentle look.

"What's the name of this thing my cousin made, and how much do you plan to sell it for?"

After getting Zhang Chengjin's evaluation, Xu Wenyan finally understood that it was correct to add sugar during the production process. Without adding sugar, the taste would be more sour.

"This is called milk tofu. Your portion is two taels of silver."

Zhang Chengjin was stunned when he heard the price. Any dairy product in Beijing would cost at least five taels of silver, and the flavor wouldn't be as good as this.

If this shop opened by my cousin were in Beijing, the price of each item would at least be several times higher.

Thinking of this, Zhang Chengjin was also puzzled. His cousin seemed to be a very smart person, but the price he set was too cheap: "Wen Yan, your price is too low. It should be at least five taels of silver. I think the portion is quite good."

Xu Wenyan shook his head: "Cousin, you also know that I come from a peasant family. It's not good to stand out too much."

As Xu Wen spoke, his tone was calm. He was a person who was easily satisfied. There was no need for him to be too aggressive, nor to be too tired.

You will definitely make more money after raising the price, but it will definitely bring unnecessary trouble.

"Who dares!" Zhang Chengjin frowned slightly: "You are my brother, Zhang Chengjin. Just based on this, the shops here dare not do anything to you."

"Haha, I know you mean well, cousin. I think this is fine now."

Xu Wenyan is now doing a potato flour business with Su Cheng. In another month, they will start making wine. They have so many sheep raised at home.

It's already very busy now, as this is the early stage of making money. Xu Wenyan still has sixty or seventy taels of silver on him. Next month, Qing'an Hall will give him a share of the profits, and the profit of his own store will also come down.

Xu Wenyan roughly calculated that it was at least around four hundred taels.

This is already a lot of money. Although it is far less than big families like the Zhang family and the Wei family, Xu Wenyan feels content.

Zhang Chengjin couldn't do anything about this cousin and could only help him silently behind the scenes.

Chen Sanlin didn't let the two chat for too long, and left with Xu Wenyan in his arms.

In the morning, three or four people bought milk tofu, and the response was very good. The only problem is that it is not well-known.

"Waiter, I'll pay the bill."

Rong Xiaoliu hurried over: "I'm coming."

"Let me know how much it costs." The customer ordered a cup of bubble milk tea, a portion of fried chicken nuggets and a fried chicken drumstick.

"Two hundred cents." Rong Xiaoliu didn't see the chicken leg bone, so he counted twenty cents less.

The guest couldn't help but smile when he heard this, because he knew he had gotten the upper hand.

He quickly took out two hundred coins and paid the bill. When Rong Xiaoliu took the money, he saw the chicken leg bone: "Um, sir, I'm sorry, I made a mistake in the calculation. I still haven't paid for the chicken leg."

"But you just calculated 200 coins. I'll give you whatever you calculate, right?"

Rong Xiaoliu wanted to say something, but Xu Wenyan came over and said, "That's two hundred coins. Eat well, brother. Welcome to visit us next time."

Xu Wenyan smiled and saw the guests off.

"I'm sorry, Brother Xu, I made a mistake in the calculation. You can deduct it from my salary." Rong Xiaoliu said guiltily.

"Of course you have to deduct the money, but since you have calculated it wrong, don't pursue it further." Xu Wenyan said seriously.

"Why? That's twenty cents." Rong Xiaoliu asked puzzledly.

Xu Wenyan pulled him aside so as not to affect their business: "First of all, you miscalculated this matter, right?"

Rong Xiaoliu nodded.

"If you want to go back, will he think our store is too petty? It's too small." Xu Wenyan put his arms around Rong Xiaoliu's neck.

"We have to have a big picture when we do big business, but we also have to be careful. If you made a mistake this time, it's a small one, but if you make a mistake every time, won't you lose a lot of money?"

Seeing Rong Xiaoliu's self-blaming eyes, Xu Wenyan said, "If we want the money back, it won't be as simple as losing twenty cents.

The one that was lost was our shop sign. He will definitely talk nonsense when he goes out, right?"

Xu Wenyan rubbed his head and left. He knew that this was not Rong Xiaoliu's fault. It was really difficult to settle accounts with people of this era.

Even Rong Xiaoliu, who had learned arithmetic from me, would make mistakes, and the two brothers and several aunts of the Yang family would probably not be able to do it either.

Xu Wenyan found Zheng Liwei: "Brother Zheng, I have something to tell you."

"Shopkeeper Xu, you say." In the store, Zheng Liwei knew the limits. Even his biological parents had to be called shopkeeper. This was the rule of running a store.

"After work, take a few people in the store to learn arithmetic." Then Xu Wenyan took the booklet from Zheng Liwei and wrote the multiplication formula on it.

Zheng Liwei nodded: "Okay, this should be my responsibility. Alas, I am sorry that you have to remind me of this. I am sorry that you paid me such a high salary."

Xu Wenyan waved his hand: "Have you learned this thing?"

Taking the booklet from Xu Wenyan, Zheng Liwei looked at it for a while and said: "It looks a bit like 'Nine Nine Songs', but the name is a little different.

Yours seems more concise.”

Xu Wenyan nodded: "Let's teach you this way first. At least you need to know how to do the math."

Zheng Liwei is indeed an old accountant and he understands things quickly.

About half of the milk tofu was sold that day, and the rest had to be eaten by everyone as it couldn’t be kept for long.
