Diandian, the cute group pet has a dragon Kaka to kill
Chapter 133 Declined
The lively courtyard fell silent after hearing these words, and everyone's eyes were focused on the two of them, each with different thoughts.
Especially Mrs. He, who knew the inside story, was 100% sure that the little girl would sell it. There were many reasons for this. If it wasn't for helping her family, Ning'er would never take the risk.
She sighed silently in her heart, calculating how much money was left at home. She had a feeling that someone would come looking for her soon, and her desire to make more money became more and more urgent.
Xia Yining's eyes flashed with a light, so fast that it was impossible to catch it. He spoke slowly and gently, "It won't work this time. Ning'er doesn't even know if the grain is reliable. If I sell it to Brother Xi, I'll be cheating you."
"If it is really a high-yield grain, we will wait until the harvest time and have Brother Xi send people to buy it. Then I will ask my parents to sell you some."
Anyway, after all, it was a gentle refusal. The problem was that what was said was very reasonable and there was no fault to be found. Xi Zhiyi was helpless and sighed, and said with a folded hand: "Okay, I'll listen to Sister Ning'er."
"If it's true as the overseas merchants said, I must have bought some and planted them on my farm. These two kinds of fruits are long and thin and plump. I've never seen them before. They are really rare."
After the two of them finished talking, Old Man He smiled and said, "Okay, if the crops are good, I will definitely leave some for Master Fei."
If he got the confirmation, Xi Zhiyi would not worry about it anymore. It was not like he would not give her the money for a year. He could afford to wait and there was no need to make the girl unhappy.
That night he sent another letter quietly, trying to ask how long it would take for the stuff from the capital to arrive, but he had no idea that he was in for a big surprise.
Today, the business of He Jia Mei Shan has stabilized, with an income of four to five taels of silver every day, thanks to the big dishes at noon. More and more customers are returning, and they have also agreed with the butcher in the town to deliver meat early every morning.
It was Mrs. He who brought it up. She said that the family had always been selling meat but had never gone out to purchase meat. This was very strange. More importantly, unlike the little girl who was busy doing things for them, they always had to rely on themselves.
After the oven was dry, Xia Yining asked someone to go to the street to buy a few ducks and some honey. She knew that this stuff was very expensive in ancient times, and a small bottle cost one or two taels of silver. She felt heartbroken just hearing that.
The duck is hung in the oven and taken out repeatedly, then brushed with honey and continued to bake. The surface is dark brown and crispy. Xia Yining drools at the sight of it, and the fragrance keeps coming to his nose.
Not to mention the other people who looked over here from time to time. Even the old customers who were eating in the hall began to ask: "Are you researching a new dish? What's it called? Give me one~!"
"Us too, us too, let's all have one."
"What is this? It smells so good that it makes people drool. It tastes different from braised pork, and has a different aroma. It must be very delicious."
After the Zhou family father and son were bought, they greeted guests in the hall with Boss He. The two of them acted as servants to the waiter and said quickly, "The master has researched new dishes. Let me go and ask if they are for sale."
When Lao Zhou entered the backyard, he saw a group of people gathered around a table, exclaiming continuously.
"Wow~~~Great~~~"
"Oh my god~~~ That's so good~~~"
At this moment, Leng Yue, the leader of the secret guards, was surrounded in the middle. Holding a kitchen knife, he sliced duck meat under the guidance of Xia Yining. His technique was so clean and neat, and most importantly, the cutting was very good.
Lao Zhou: “…”
I always feel that the master is a little bit crazy, but the problem is that Master Fei and Lady Lengyue are also happy to pamper me. I couldn't help but smile and bend over to ask, "Little..."
As soon as he opened his mouth, Xia Yining stuffed a mouthful of duck meat, which was covered with a thin layer of pancake, topped with green onions, sauce, cucumber shreds, and most importantly, a little white sugar. It was crispy and fragrant when he bit into it.
He never knew that food could be so delicious. The smell was so fragrant that he squinted his eyes. He just wanted to savor the food in his mouth and forgot what he was going to do at that moment.
Xia Yining covered her mouth and laughed secretly. Like a little hamster, she stuffed a portion into her mouth. Not forgetting Xiao Tao behind her, she asked with a smile, "Is it delicious, Uncle Zhou?"
He nodded instinctively, thinking that this was not enough, and gave a thumbs up and praised: "It's so delicious, it's simply the most delicious food in the world."
"No wonder everyone was intoxicated by the aroma in the hall. It tastes even better when you put it in your mouth. Miss, those old customers want to buy it. Do you want to sell it?"
Looking at the remaining five ducks, Xia Yining waved his hand and said generously, "I won't sell them today. I'll slice a duck and give some to each table. Once they're all gone, there will be no more. If you want to eat them, you can make a reservation."
Holding her little face in her hands, she said in a soft voice, "The roast duck is sold in limited quantities. Each duck costs one ounce. Only ten ducks are sold every day. First come, first served."
Everyone gasped, thinking that she was really bold in setting the price. It was one or two taels of silver. Even the He family was not confident.
Mrs. He considered her words carefully and asked, "Ning'er, isn't it too expensive? There has never been a dish that costs only one or two silver coins in Changle Town. If this gets out, people will scold us."
Without waiting for her to speak, Xi Zhiyi swallowed the food in his mouth and said, "It's not expensive. One tael of silver is still cheap. If this dish is placed in the capital, it can be sold for dozens or even hundreds of taels without any problem."
"Even if you book in advance, everyone will be scrambling to get a spot."
Xia Yining gave him a look of praise from a distance, Roast duck~!
It is a very popular existence in the capital of China, let alone in ancient times. It is even more incredible, like a god.
He also explained: "There are not enough ducks, so we only sell ten a day. When the ducks in the village grow up, we can increase the amount appropriately, but not too much."
"It's not surprising if you can't eat this thing, but if you can't eat it for a long time, you will miss it."
Everyone: "!!"
He held back and said, "What a monster, such a monster."
They all wanted to open the young lady's head to see what was going on with her brain and why she was so smart.
After being defrauded by Xi Zhiyi of a hundred taels of silver, everyone calmed down instead. They quickly took the plates, divided them into small portions and went to the hall. The waiting time was still a little tense.
Mrs. He wanted to find a topic to divert attention, so she asked, "Why did Ning'er only give away one? What about the remaining four?"
With his mouth full of sauce, Xia Yining opened his eyes wide and said seriously, "Of course I'm saving them for eating! I'll give one to my uncle's family and the headman's family when I return to the village, and I'll keep the remaining two for my family."
With the delicious food in front of him, Xia Yining was in a particularly good mood. He shook his little head as usual, with his whole face narrowed with a smile, making him look like a cute little kitten.
Mother He: “!!”
Smiling, she tapped her nose and said, "Very good. Ning'er won't be someone who will wrong herself. Mother is relieved."
