Chapter 22 Losing the right to cook
Luo Yunchun watched him leave and his eyes fell on the fourteen taels of silver. He stared at it for a long while, then reached out and threw the silver into a box specially used to store silver.
The sound of gold and silver colliding is very pleasant.
Luo Yunchun felt sleepy and yawned.
A voice came: "Sir, can we do business?"
Lu Guangzong put his hands in his pockets and smiled ingratiatingly at Luo Yunchun.
Luo Yunchun squinted at him: "What business?"
"I will cook breakfast and dinner for the adults. Please give me a chance to sell food." Lu Guangzong copied Jiang Qiu's method.
Luo Yunchun smiled and said, "Okay, tomorrow I'll ask Miss Jiang to stop working, and you can go and try. If you're good at cooking, you can naturally do business. If you're not good at cooking breakfast and dinner, then..."
"So what?" Lu Guangzong asked nervously.
"A fine of ten taels of gold."
"Ten taels of gold!!!"
"Well, why, you don't want to?"
"No...I'm willing, I'm willing." Although Lu Guangzong was a little worried, he didn't think it was anything to be afraid of.
Isn’t it just cooking a dish?
When his wife was trying to please him in the capital, she served him top-notch delicacies every day. He just didn't believe that this couldn't win the hearts of the officials.
He counted the number of people queuing at Jiang Qiu tonight and there were twenty of them.
One tael per person, and you can earn twenty taels a night, which is enough to match the amount a small restaurant earns in a night.
Money is a tempting thing. Even though Lu Guangzong despises cooking as being crude and not presentable, he still wants to get involved in this huge profit.
Luo Yunchun watched his expression change and sneered secretly: "The gold must be deposited with me first. If I can eat it every day, I will return it."
Lu Guangzong was slightly stunned and felt a little unhappy.
He had never heard that Jiang Qiu and Lu Ce wanted to bet on gold.
But the situation was stronger than the person, Lu Guangzong bowed to Luo Yunchun and quickly went to ask his grandparents for money!
"Grandpa, you will give me ten taels of gold. I will earn twenty taels of silver every day. It will take less than two months to make back my investment. I will make money for the next four months. No matter how you calculate it, this is a business that is guaranteed to make money."
"Are you sure that you and your wife can cook food like Jiang Qiu's?" It's not that the grandfather of the Lu family doubted it. The two of them had been living together for many years, and he had never seen Lu Guangzong do any work, let alone cook.
Even after Dai Hongmei married into the Lu family, she began to live a life of luxury. She had a group of maids and servants do the cooking, and she only had to take charge of the simplest one or two steps, which was considered a completed delicious dish.
He really wasn't sure if his grandson and granddaughter-in-law had that ability.
Even the fact that Jiang Qiu was selling food shocked the old man of the Lu family. He suspected that the Prime Minister's Mansion was secretly using Jiang Qiu as a cook. Otherwise, how could a delicate young lady from the Prime Minister's Mansion wield an iron spoon so skillfully.
"Grandpa, don't you still believe in your grandson?" Lu Guangzong gradually became impatient. What was wrong with his grandfather? He had such a large sum of money, but he couldn't spend it all, and he was unwilling to give his grandson some money.
Even with this, you still expect him to provide for you in your old age?
dream!
"Forget it, then you go and try it." Lu's grandfather took out ten taels of gold and gave it to him.
His savings gradually dwindled and there wasn't much left.
In recent days, he has been considering whether to get off the prison van and not waste the money.
Originally, he was not worried about the money issue, as the Fifth Prince promised to give him 100 taels of gold if he got rid of someone close to Lu Ce.
The four people around him can get four hundred taels of gold.
But now everyone around Lu Ce is fine. Even Yao'er, who was originally in danger, gradually regained her life after going to the town.
Now he tosses and turns every night, very worried.
Seeing that his grandfather was slow to take the silver, Lu Guangzong took it and said, "Grandpa, your grandson's wife and I know how to do things. We will definitely feed the officials well and make them willing to give us the business. Oh, by the way, because we want to sell food, we need to buy ingredients from the officials, which requires another sum of silver. But don't worry, grandpa, I will definitely double the money. You see, Jiang Qiu can make one or two silver coins by selling a bowl of wild vegetables. We are selling purebred eggs, how can we not make money?"
"How much do you want?" Grandfather Lu was exhausted.
"Twenty taels of silver."
"Twenty taels of silver? Are you sure? The wild vegetable scrambled eggs that Jiang Qiu made tonight tasted good, but only twenty people came to buy them. That's when they had enough money. As time goes on, they will have less silver and will be more cautious when buying things. How much can you earn with twenty taels of capital? Can you guarantee that forty people will buy them?"
"I can!" Lu Guangzong was very sure.
The grandfather of the Lu family pondered for a long time. His grandson had never done any serious work since he was a child. This time he was finally willing to do some work. He couldn't discourage him, lest he would be mediocre and know nothing in the future when he went to Qiongzhou. With a sigh, he went to get another twenty taels of silver.
Putting two small silver ingots in his hands, the grandfather of the Lu family advised: "Then you should try it well. Get up early tomorrow and prepare breakfast for the officials. The food you sell must be made more delicate, and you must be nicer to the people who buy it. Whether they buy or not, you must welcome them with a smile. We are here to make money from people, not to offend them."
"I want to do business, you must understand this principle. Everyone who comes is a guest, I will definitely treat them with the most enthusiastic attitude. When I make money, I will definitely return your money to you in full, even the ten taels of gold I lost last time I went to the town."
Lu Guangzong has been talked about a lot recently.
He said that he went to the town and brought nothing back, losing ten taels of gold in vain.
Look at Lu Ce and Jiang Qiu again. They have water and food, and they also cured Yaoer.
At first he felt a little guilty and regretted going to Zui Xiang Lou to find a girl, but he became more and more annoyed as he listened to it every day!
The grandfather of the Lu family looked at his arrogant grandson in front of him, a little tired: "You have been an adult for several years, and you have already started a family. You should have your own ideas. I hope you will not let down your current enthusiasm."
Lu Guangzong hummed perfunctorily.
He took the silver and gave it to Luo Yunchun, and also bought food from him.
The main thing is that they bought eggs and will make scrambled eggs tomorrow, making twenty taels easily.
They are not like Jiang Qiu and Lu Ce, who spend so much time and effort on doing all kinds of things. It is tiring enough to travel, and they have to be so busy in the morning and evening. How can they bear it? They are so stupid.
While carrying the eggs, Lu Guangzong suddenly felt the pride of having seized a city. He had obtained the qualification to cook from Lu Ce.
After thinking for a while, he deliberately walked around to Jiang Qiulu Ce's side, looked down at them, and said arrogantly: "Lord Luo hasn't informed you yet, I will cook tomorrow, and you have lost the qualification to cook."
