I've been reborn, who would still raise a son from another family? Go away
Chapter 351 Selling Locusts 1
Song Nanzhi's face looked a little ugly due to the burning gazes of the crowd, but he was angry but dared not say anything. Things are different now.
Although he was still a prince, the decline of the marquisate was well known.
He glared at the shopkeeper with displeasure, then suppressed his anger and said, "Who said I don't want it? It's just that the cloth is a little dirty, and I wanted to ask if you could change it. What do you mean by that?"
The shopkeeper was scolded by Song Nanzhi, but he didn't care and said, "I'm old and hard of hearing, so I didn't hear it clearly. In this case, which one do you want to change first, Prince?"
Song Nanzhi was embarrassed by the shopkeeper, and then waved his hand unhappily and said, "No need, just this."
After saying that, he left angrily.
When he reached the door, Song Nanzhi deliberately stopped and looked towards the second floor.
He saw Liu Yueru standing by the window, looking at him coldly.
Song Nanzhi withdrew his gaze and fled away.
Do not know why.
Ever since he was discovered to have deceived her, he felt inferior to Liu Yueru.
Liu Yueru stood by the window and looked at the thin people outside, her eyes full of pity. She didn't notice Song Nanzhi's fleeing figure at all.
Liu Yueru's voice sounded gently; "Uncle Fu, open a grain store in Kyoto, and keep some of our stored grain, which will be enough for the Liu family to eat for two years, and the grain needed by my brother's army for half a year, and sell the rest according to the previous grain price."
Uncle Fu followed Liu Yueru's gaze and said, "Madam, if that happens, it will cause another food scramble and hoarding. Even if we have more food, it won't be enough for them to buy."
Liu Yueru's eyes dimmed a little; "Limited quantity, each household can only buy the amount they need. We won't sell more, even if you increase the price."
Uncle Fu immediately understood Liu Yueru's meaning and nodded slightly.
Liu Yueru's voice continued, "The sooner the better. We'll choose a location next to one of the grain stores."
Uncle Fu pondered for a moment, then humbly said to Liu Yueru, "Okay, I want Miss Ye Tao to manage the shop together with Zhang Liang and his wife. Ye Tao happens to be good at accounting, so she can handle these things easily. Plus, they are newlyweds, so if you don't have enough people to serve you, I will go find some suitable ones."
Liu Yueru looked at Mother Yan and felt that something was not right. After thinking for a long time, she slowly said, "Although Ye Tao has a good personality, she speaks too bluntly and easily offends people. Although this grain shop is not a big business, with the current grain shortage, many nobles will definitely send people to buy large quantities. This requires an owner who can push the store forward."
"I have thought of these things, so I let Zhang Liang and Ye Tao work together. Although Zhang Liang is usually silent, he is a practical man. He has his own way of dealing with people and things, and he is also meticulous. He complements Ye Tao's determination. It couldn't be better. This is the boss who can be promoted to the front. I have also thought of a boss."
Uncle Fu looked at Liu Yueru kindly, and said with a gentle smile, "But the man has to be asked by my lady herself. I'm afraid this old servant's face is not enough."
Liu Yueru asked in confusion, "Uncle Fu, just tell me directly."
The smile on Uncle Fu's face became more amiable. "It's the Prince of Jin. The prince is a figure that the powerful people in Kyoto are quite afraid of. If he is willing to be the owner of these shops for my lady, a lot of trouble can be avoided."
Liu Yueru was naturally aware of Xie Jingrui's prestige and deterrent power in Kyoto.
But that would implicate Xie Jingrui.
The power structure in Kyoto is severely divided. Although Xie Jingrui has no intention of competing for the throne, those who covet the imperial power have probably already regarded him as the first target to be eliminated.
"My lady, please think about it carefully. Just now I saw that the prince looked at you with unfriendly eyes. He is a man who will take revenge for any slight. My lady, you must be on guard."
There were some things that Uncle Fu did not say in front of Liu Yueru. Now Uncle Fu had concealed the fact that Liu Yueru was the boss behind all the shops he was running.
However, there is no wall that is impenetrable. As long as someone wants to investigate, they will be able to find out the owners of those shops.
In addition, Liu Yueru is now a divorced woman. According to the current thinking of most people in Kyoto, divorced or divorced women are looked down upon. Uncle Fu is worried that after Princess Anlan marries Song Nanzhi, they will find out about Liu Yueru's shops and cause trouble in the shops.
The nobles all look at the situation. As long as they feel something is not going well, the business of those shops will be affected no matter what.
Liu Yueru also understood Uncle Fu's painstaking efforts, and she nodded in agreement: "Uncle Fu, I will think about this matter carefully, and finish the things I asked you to do first."
"Also, have those locusts that I asked everyone to collect been fried?"
Uncle Fu said with a puzzled look on his face, "They are fried, sprinkled with salt, and placed in a cool cellar. I also put ice in the cellar where the locusts are stored, as my wife instructed."
Liu Yueru sat at the table beside her, picked up the four treasures of the study, spread out the rice paper, ground it, picked up the brush and began to write on the rice paper the recipe for how to prepare the locusts.
Then he handed the recipe to Uncle Fu and instructed him, "Uncle Fu, go back and remove the heads of the locusts, mix them with flour and these seasonings, fry them until golden brown, and then add the above ingredients. Send them to the big restaurants in Kyoto. You don't need to tell them what the dishes are made of. Just let the restaurant owners taste them and ask them if they want new dishes."
Uncle Fu looked worried, as if he was afraid that his family's reputation would be ruined, and asked Liu Yueru, "Madam, if this matter gets out, will someone chase me to the Liu Mansion and beat me up?"
Liu Yueru was originally planning how to get money from those nobles, but suddenly she heard what Fu Bo said.
He was stunned at first, and then the corners of his mouth could no longer be suppressed and turned upwards, which was really funny.
A moment.
Liu Yueru put away her smile and explained to Uncle Fu seriously, "Don't worry, the people from the Northern Frontier have already tasted the locusts. They are non-toxic and edible. After removing the heads and wrapping them in flour, you can't see anything wrong with them, and you can't even tell that they are locust meat."
"What about pricing and quantity?" Uncle Fu asked immediately.
Liu Yueru thought for a moment and said, "Thirty pieces per plate, priced at ten taels of silver per plate."
"What?" Uncle Fu rubbed his ears with his hands, looked at Liu Yueru in disbelief, and asked again: "Ten taels of silver per plate?"
"Yes."
Uncle Fu looked at Liu Yueru's determined eyes and confirmed that he had not heard wrong.
"Is this a bit too expensive?" Uncle Fu asked carefully.
Liu Yueru looked at Uncle Fu, raised her eyebrows slightly, and smiled mysteriously.
