The younger sister-in-law falsely accused the sickly uncle and ran away with the baby

Yu Ruyue quickly shook her head, "I'm just a farmer's daughter, how could I be so bold?"

Wen Mo looked at the thing in his hand and asked, "How long can this thing be preserved?"

"If it is kept in a dry and ventilated place, it can be kept for up to a year."

Wen Mo pursed his lips and said nothing.

Yu Ruyue took out another piece of instant noodles, broke it into pieces and placed it in the bowl, then sprinkled the seasoning evenly on it. "Try it! It actually has a unique flavor even when eaten dry."

"Even the noodles can be eaten dry; they're naturally salty!"

Wen Mo took a piece of instant noodles and put it in his mouth. At first, he could smell the salty flavor of the seasoning, but the more he chewed, the stronger the aroma became. It had a unique flavor, and it also made him feel very full!

Wen Mo had a bold idea in his mind. If this thing were used as military rations...

Seeing Wen Mo frowning and silent, Yu Ruyue felt a little uneasy. Could it be that ancient people didn't like this? Or did they think noodles should be eaten freshly made?

Time passed by minute by minute, and Yu Ruyue's palms began to sweat from her nervousness. She had invested several thousand taels of silver in this noodle factory, and she must not let it go to waste!

Qin Haowen saw Yu Ruyue pursing her lips, looking very nervous, but still trying to remain calm, and he felt a strange feeling in his heart.

He walked forward, his wide sleeves overlapping Ruyue's arm. He carefully reached out, grabbed Yu Ruyue's arm through her clothes, and gently squeezed it twice.

Yu Ruyue felt the burning heat on her arm, and her uneasy heart slowly calmed down. She knew that she couldn't be cowardly and couldn't show any lack of confidence.

That would put you at a disadvantage in the subsequent negotiations.

After all, looking at Wen Mo's endless praise just now, it seems that he doesn't think that the noodles and instant noodles are not delicious. He might be thinking about the possibility of cooperating with his boss.

Finally, when Yu Ruyue couldn't help but want to speak, Wen Mo said: "Okay! Let's talk!"

Yu Ruyue secretly breathed a sigh of relief, a faint smile still on her face as she took out the prepared agreement. "Take a look! A pound of fine noodles costs thirty-five coins. Adding some salt and other seasonings, I can make 1.2 pounds of noodles! So my cost per pound is about forty coins, and since the factory is a mess, 100 coins per pound isn't too much, right?"

Wen Mo nodded, "Yeah! Not much!"

Yu Ruyue continued, "As for instant noodles, they're even more complicated, and they're sold individually! 30 coins each, what do you think?"

Wen Mo took out a piece of instant noodles and shook it. "These five noodles should weigh about a jin (jin)! That means a jin is 150 wen (wen)?"

Yu Ruyue quickly said, "You can't count that way. I also put the corresponding seasoning packets in each pancake, as well as dried vegetables and pork!"

"The most important thing is that this thing of mine is convenient and novel."

Wen Mo nodded, "It's indeed convenient and novel! So! You stay here first. Tianfulou is not mine alone. I have to go discuss it with someone!"

Yu Ruyue's grip tightened, but soon returned to normal. "Alright! Go ahead!"

Wen Mo took the samples of noodles and instant noodles given by Yu Ruyue and turned away, while Yu Ruyue and Qin Haowen were arranged to the fifth floor of Tianfu Building, which was a place specially for people to live.

After everyone left, Yu Ruyue paced around the room nervously, "Qin Haowen! Do you think he thinks it's too expensive?"

"I don't think I'm asking for much. Even though I've inflated some of the costs, it's just hard-earned money. Tianfulou is a wealthy family, so they don't need my little bit of money."

"Last time, when I bought a house, I paid thousands of taels without blinking an eye. What's going on this time?"

"Will our trip be in vain?"

Qin Haowen looked at Yu Ruyue's nervous expression and said, "Excuse me!" Then he bent down and picked her up horizontally. Yu Ruyue was so scared that she quickly hugged Qin Haowen's neck. Feeling his heart beating violently, she exclaimed, "What are you doing?"

Qin Haowen placed her on the bed, knelt on one knee, and gently took off Yu Ruyue's embroidered shoes. He then pushed her inside and covered her with a thin quilt. "Miss Ruyue! You haven't had a good rest for a long time on this journey. Get some sleep first. We can talk about anything after you wake up."

How could Yu Ruyue possibly fall asleep? As soon as she sat up, Qin Haowen pressed her down with one hand. This happened five times in a row. She was speechless and said, "Why are you pressing me down? I can't sleep!"

Qin Haowen said with a cold face: "My uncle and aunt asked me to take good care of you. If you don't sleep, I will go back and complain that you don't take good care of yourself."

Yu Ruyue was so angry that she laughed. "Qin Haowen! You actually learned to complain! Good! Very good!"

In the end, she was still afraid of being sued. After all, her sudden death had left an indelible shadow on Yu Dehou and Liang Shulan.

As for now, whenever Yu Ruyue wants to sleep in late, both of them will be in tears, as if they are going to be separated by the Yin and Yang again.

Forget it! Yu Ruyue didn't want to make her parents worry anymore, and she was indeed a little tired after the long journey. As for the other side, whatever happens, it's up to her!

If it really doesn't work, go back and disband the noodle factory, and put all the noodles into the space to eat by yourself!

Thinking of this, Yu Ruyue lay on the bed and closed her eyes obediently.

Qin Haowen was standing next to her, staring at Yu Ruyue without blinking, afraid that she would sit up again.

After confirming that Yu Ruyue was breathing evenly and had fallen asleep, Qin Haowen walked to a chair beside him, sat down and closed his eyes to rest.

After Wen Mo took the things and left, he hurriedly asked someone to drive a carriage into the city. The carriage made many turns and finally arrived at an extremely remote alley.

Wen Mo sat in the carriage for a while, waiting for his subordinates to report. After he found out that no one was following him, he put on a black cloak and walked out of the carriage and entered the extremely remote courtyard. As soon as he entered and saw the person standing in the courtyard, he knelt down immediately.

"Greetings, Lord Meng."

Meng Chen frowned in confusion, "What's the matter?"

Wen Mo immediately placed the things in his hands on it, and then recounted what happened today.

"Is this little pancake really as delicious as you say?"

Wen Mo nodded, and went to the kitchen to boil some hot water and made the tea according to Yu Ruyue's method.

"Master Meng! This thing not only tastes good, but can be eaten soaked, cooked, or even dry. Most importantly, it can be stored for a long time and is extremely filling. It's a great food for a forced march..."

When Meng Chen put the instant noodles into his mouth, his eyes suddenly lit up.

"Hmm! It's really good. Has that person investigated it?"

Wen Mo: "She's just an ordinary farm girl, without any background, but she loves money very much!"

Meng Chen nodded, "But the situation is a bit special now. Even the Duke of Zhenguo can't escape the calculations of those people. We can't make any big moves!"

Wen Mo sighed helplessly, "Master Meng! How about we ask someone in the prison?"

Meng Chen thought for a moment and shook his head, "No, that person is already dead in the eyes of outsiders, so let's not make things complicated. Since we have Tianfulou as a cover, let's order 1 kilograms as well to test the waters. Oh, right! Scare that little girl so she can be more discreet when she does things."

Wen Mo nodded and was about to leave when Meng Chen called him back, "Still no news about the Duke of Zhenguo and his wife?"
