The two sat face to face, and Shen Jiyao's eyes fell on Xiao Doumi who was being held and amused by Lan Qianjue. Seeing that the light yellow clothes he was wearing were dirty again, he felt a bit of a headache. After eating, the clothes are always dirty very quickly. If one doesn’t pay attention, she wipes everything on the clothes, drools, etc., and soon soils a small piece of clothing that has just been changed, which is just before going out. It's only half a day since I've been in town.

Although the weather is good now, washing a few clothes is not too tiring, but the speed of washing can't keep up with the speed of changing, which is a bit embarrassing, and Xiaodoumi has a little habit of always pulling clothes to bite, as long as she turns around and doesn't see , he just grabbed his own clothes and put them in his mouth. Now he is wearing loose clothes in this weather, which not only makes his own belly exposed to the outside and is easy to catch cold, but may also get sick from the bacteria on the clothes.

He stared at Xiaodoumi's clothes for a long time, and was worried, but the next moment he had a sudden inspiration, and said: "Qianjue, let's go to the cloth shop after dinner, and choose a piece of cloth for Xiaodou Make a bib so he won’t get the front dirty when he drools when eating, and just wash the bib later.”

Lan Qianjue had never heard of a bib, so he put his hands under Xiao Doumi's armpit and asked him to stand on his own legs and play around, saying, "What is that?"

"Well, how should I say it." Shen Jiyao thought about how to describe it for a while, and finally thought of a very apt metaphor after a few breaths, and said with a smile: "It's similar to the use of diapers. When it gets dirty, take off the bib and wash it, so that you don't have to use it." Do you think it is much more convenient to always undress him for washing?"

Lan Qianjue thought about it for a while, and felt that it was true. There are often children in the village who get their clothes dirty when they are playing. Dirty clothes have to be washed, so Brother Zhou often complains to Lan Qianjue about this. After all, he washes those dirty clothes in winter. If Shen Jiyao can make bibs according to the method he said, taking care of children in winter will be difficult. It's much more convenient, and I don't have to do laundry all the time in such cold weather.

Thinking of this, Lan Qianjue looked at Shen Jiyao with admiration in his eyes. I really don't know how he could come up with so many weird things, so he said with a smile: "It's really convenient. If it's practical, I can also teach others a thing or two. In this way, everyone doesn’t have to go to the river to cut ice and wash children’s clothes every now and then in winter.”

"If you want to teach, just hand it over to a few acquaintances. Others don't want to teach, and want to buy it themselves." Shen Jiyao suddenly froze when he said this. Well, after the business develops smoothly, he can continue to develop another industry, and this other industry, of course, refers to clothing, children's things, women's clothing and underwear, and men's boxers and waistcoats Vests and so on, once these are made, as long as someone feels comfortable wearing them, they will not worry about selling them.

But one more important point is that the ancient people were quite conservative in their thinking, so the clothes must be generous and unique, simple and neat, and well-dressed are the most important factors, but if Shen Jiyao really wants to dress Development in this aspect, these factors are not difficult for him as a modern person, Shen Jiyao secretly kept this idea, only waiting for the opportunity in the future, he must try to develop in this aspect.

Of course, there are many other industries. Shen Jiyao also plans to try them out. In fact, he is most interested in food. He actually wants to make skewers and barbecues for sale. However, he hasn't inspected the night market in the town so far. His ambition is not only to develop in this small town, he wants to go to the county, where every corner is more lively than the town, but the challenge will be greater, so now he has to make the restaurant well before he is qualified to think about other things. .

Now that Shen Jiyao doesn't think about anything secretly, he likes to talk to Lan Qianjue, so he talked to Lan Qianjue about his plan just now. Lan Qianjue naturally has no objection and supports Shen Jiyao unconditionally. However, Lan Qianjue's thinking is the same as his. He must first do a good job in the town's business, and then consider other things. The foundation must be solidified step by step, so that there will be no other problems that have not been considered.

The two sat and waited for a long time, until Shen Jiyao was so hungry that he couldn't bear it. After about two quarters of an hour, the store began to serve food.

Shen Jiyao watched eagerly as the waiter served the dishes. The so-called Penglai sea bass was actually steamed sea bass, the beggar chicken was wrapped in lotus leaves, then wrapped in mud and baked, and the pork liver with cornel was actually another palace dish in disguise. Stir-fried pork liver, but it uses cornel fruit, the fried pork liver is a little white, and the other two appetizers are stewed pork slices and fried beans. As for the soup, according to Xiaoer, it’s deer Whip soup is not only nourishing, but also aphrodisiac.

Shen Jiyao was pouring milk for Xiaodoumi, when he heard this, his mouth twitched, and he said, "Deer penis, that's rare, how much is a piece?"

"It's not expensive, you don't look like someone who can't afford to drink with your looks." Xiaoer said with a smile: "Seeing you two coming here for the first time, I will only charge you three taels of silver."

"Three taels?" Shen Jiyao frowned, and said, "The weather is so sweltering, why do you serve me a soup that strengthens the yang, I'm afraid of dryness after eating, and the price is too high, I can't eat this soup at all. I'll take two or three, your restaurant is too dark, I don't want it, you can take it away."

The little two looked troubled, and said: "Guest officer, don't embarrass the little one. The little one is just a waiter. Didn't you just say which soup you want? The elder brother who is in charge of the spoon arranged for you. Tang, think about it, how about I give you a little less, two to five hundred dollars."

"Buy cabbage and bargain." Shen Jiyao was a little displeased, and he actually sold deer chirps to them. Who could eat them? I heard people talking about tiger penis and ox penis soaked in medicinal wine before. Shen Jiyao was quite curious, but Now suddenly a deer whip soup was boiled for him, and Shen Jiyao couldn't accept it for a while. Besides, Lan Qianjue was already very good at it, and he didn't know how long it would last if he made up for it. After much deliberation, he still didn't want it.

"Guest officer, why don't you try it first? What if the taste is to your liking." Seeing that Shen Jiyao really didn't want it, Xiaoer couldn't help feeling a little remorseful, so he said pleadingly: "The shopkeeper will be angry if you return it. In fact, I ordered this soup for you without authorization. I also think that the two of you are very close, so I want to add some fun to you. Who knows that you don’t like this deer penis. Although it’s disgusting to think about it, it’s true It is a great tonic, so you can do it, I don’t want to be scolded in vain, why don’t you try it first, and if it tastes good, you can accept it?”

Shen Jiyao felt helpless looking at the pitiful look on the waiter's face. Although he was still in awe of the deer in his heart, he didn't know how true the waiter's words were. Now it's only his fault that he didn't name what soup he wanted. It was unreasonable, so he looked at Lan Qianjue and said, "Why don't you try it?"

"Put it down." Lan Qianjue said as he scooped up two spoonfuls of soup into a bowl, took a sip, and said, "But it's too expensive, tell your shopkeeper, I only pay two taels of silver for this bowl of soup."

When Xiaoer saw this, he immediately beamed with joy, and he didn't care about the price, anyway, the shopkeeper of the deerwhip had told him that he could sell it for less than two taels of silver, so he left with gratitude.

Looking at the deer whip in the enamel bowl, Shen Jiyao's throat tightened a little, and he asked with some disgust, "How does it taste, is it good?"

Lan Qianjue picked up the jug on the side and poured himself a glass of wine, and said flatly, "It's okay, except for some fishy smell, it's no different from ordinary soup."

Shen Jiyao nodded and said, "Then you drink more." He took Xiaodoumi from Lan Qianjue's arms and let him sit on his lap to lean on, and used chopsticks to pry open the outer layer of the beggar chicken. After peeling off the dried mud, the dried and yellowed lotus leaves inside were exposed, and a fresh fragrance rushed to the face immediately.

Shen Jiyao sniffed a few times, quickly peeled off the lotus leaf, cut the roasted chicken with the prepared dagger, put one leg into Lanqianjue's bowl, and put the other chicken leg into his own bowl.

Beggar's chicken oil is not greasy and tastes good, but Shen Jiyao always feels that some condiments are missing. It would be more delicious if dipped in chili water. If Shen Jiyao is asked to make this dish, he will not just wrap a chicken rub The salt is used for roasting, but more or less things are stuffed in the belly of the chicken, such as mushrooms or mushrooms, and then seasoned with onion, ginger, garlic, etc., so that the chicken will not be too simple to eat , If you are tired of eating chicken, you can still eat the ingredients in the chicken belly. After all, if you want to eat a whole chicken like this, you will inevitably feel tired.

Shen Jiyao put it down after eating a few mouthfuls of chicken, and turned to eat pork liver. The color of the pork liver is not very pleasing. It's not very pretty. Shen Jiyao took a piece of it and ate it in his mouth. The pork liver was a bit old after frying, and the pork liver hadn't been blended with gorgon powder, so this pork liver lacked a glutinous feeling, but the salty taste But it was handled very well, and there was no major problem, but if it was fried for Shen Jiyao, the palace fried pork liver would be much tastier than the current frying method.

After eating the pork liver, he continued to eat sea bass. I have to say that the fish was very well cooked, very fresh and tasty. Shen Jiyao ate it on his own. From time to time, he picked out a piece of fish for Lan Qianjue to serve him with wine. The neglected Xiao Doumi cried out at this time, Shen Jiyao hugged Xiao Doumi, and said amusedly: "Do you want some too?"

"Ahhh." Xiaodoumi shouted excitedly.

Shen Jiyao held him in his arms with one hand, took a small lump of white and tender fish meat, put it in a bowl, flattened it with chopsticks, carefully picked out the spines, and then fed the meat to Xiaodoumi.

Xiao Doumi gulped down a few times, then yelled again, indicating that there was more.

Shen Jiyao smiled helplessly, feeling that now Xiaodoumi was not as good as a child, so he had to serve him first, but he didn't dare to feed him too much. Before he was one year old, he was still mainly fed with goat's milk.

The family of three had a meal in a restaurant, and they shared five taels of silver at the checkout, which made Shen Jiyao feel sore. Tang gave the pit a few ounces, feeling a little blocked in his heart, but Shen Jiyao could think about it, and he put it behind him not long after.

Shen Jiyao plans to go to another restaurant tomorrow. This time, he must order the special dishes of the restaurant first. He can't be confused by the name of the dishes. Shen Jiyao can't help but feel a little funny when he thinks about the Penglai sea bass. Yes, after the two left the restaurant, they took Xiaodoumi to the cloth shop to pull the cloth. Shen Jiyao bought a square piece of royal blue fabric.

After returning to the inn, Lan Qianjue took Xiao Doumi to play on the bed, while Shen Jiyao was holding a piece of cloth and thinking about how to cut it to make a bib.

There are many types of bibs for children. The most common one is the bib that resembles clothes. It is worn by every child in his hometown. The style is almost the same as that of cardigan clothes. There are many clothes, which are similar to the buttons of a cardigan, the other is directly made into the shape of a small bellyband, and the last one is to cut a small piece of cloth and press it directly into the neck of the clothes, but that kind It can only be used for babies who can't run or jump, obviously it can't be used for Xiaodoumi, he is too good.

Shen Jiyao thought about it for a long time, and finally made a cardigan bib and a bib that was pressed directly into the collar. His son must be handsome. He made a little bumpkin with a cardigan bib at home, and used a scarf when he went outside. The style of the bib is so handsome that Shen Jiyao couldn't help laughing thinking about it.

Now Shen Jiyao's needlework has also improved slightly. It is not a problem to make a few simple bibs, but it takes a long time. He sat from noon to evening, sewing, cutting and cutting, and then made Xiaodoumi's bibs , The bib of the cardigan was also made decently.

Xiao Doumi, who was wearing a bib, was very happy, smiling so much that she couldn't stop drooling, very excited.

The three of them lived in the town for several days, until Shen Jiyao felt that he had almost eaten all the restaurants and inns in the town, and then set off back to the village.

The five people have been taking care of the vegetables and poultry in the yard in an orderly manner for the past few days, and they are looking forward to the return of the two of them. Today they finally waited for the two of them to come back.

Wang Yue'er happily served tea and water for the two of them, and then said: "Brother Shen, Brother Su came to look for you a few days ago, and saw that you were not here, so he went back."

Shen Jiyao took a sip of tea, exchanged glances with Lan Qianjue, and said, "Did he say he wanted anything from me?"

Wang Yue'er: "Leaving without saying anything."

Shen Jiyao smiled and said, "Okay, I see, I have worked hard for you these few days."

Wang Yueer nodded, and then went out.

Shen Jiyao put down the bowl, and said to Lan Qianjue, "Do you think we should find a joint venture for the restaurant?"

Lan Qianjue: "Joint venture?"

"The two families run the restaurant together." Shen Jiyao said: "In this way, we will take less risk, but the money we earn will be reduced by half, and the other half will be distributed to the joint venture partners. If we can make money, we can also bring Su Ye and the others make money together. After all, we can have today without their help. The most important thing is that I want Zhang Tianwen to mobilize the whole village to grow my vegetables. After all, only our family grows vegetables now. Our vegetables are selling well, and we don’t have these vegetables in this dynasty. If someone wants to use this matter to make a fuss, I’m afraid it will be hard to explain it, so as long as our vegetables start to spread to all villages, the whole village will grow them. , even if someone intentionally seeks trouble, they won’t be able to make trouble, what do you think.”

Lan Qianjue raised his hand to take off Xiaodoumi's hand that slapped him on the face, he thought for a while, and then said: "It's fine, but I'm worried about the money involved, it's all about making money in the future, otherwise, It will affect the relationship between the few of us, brothers will settle accounts clearly, and it is not the main reason that there will be disputes at that time, but I am afraid that our friendship with them will be affected. If that is the case, the loss outweighs the gain."

Shen Jiyao suddenly realized, and said with some regret; "That's true, but we can ask them first, in case they are interested, if they want to do it, let's analyze it to him first, and when the time comes If he wants to buy shares, he can buy it, and if he doesn't want to, let it go. I just happened to be able to talk to him about growing vegetables, and then I'll see what Su Ye wants from me. I haven't seen him for a long time since he married in Baoshanzhai. "

Lan Qianjue said, "I'll accompany you."

Shen Jiyao nodded: "Okay."

The next day, the two went to Baoshanzhai with Xiaodoumi in their arms.

When they arrived at Zhang Tianwen's house, Zhang Tianwen was cooking in the kitchen, while the old man stood aside pointing, watching him cooking with a serious face. The two were extremely serious, and from time to time they would fight over how much to fry and how little to fry. , I didn't even know that the two of them were here.

Shen Jiyao stood outside the kitchen and watched for a while, seeing that the two of them were almost yelling over how to fry a dish, so he said rather funnyly: "Brother Zhang, Uncle Zhang, why are you arguing about cooking a dish?"

The two were taken aback for a moment, and then turned around together. Zhang Tianwen let out a yo, smiled at the two, and said, "Why are you here? Go sit in the room first, and I will cook."

The old man laughed when he saw the two of them, and he didn't care how Zhang Tianwen was cooking. He came out and said helplessly: "I told him to put less salt, but he just didn't listen. I'm telling you to watch a joke. Hurry up!" Go and sit in it, oops, my little Doumier is here again, come, let Grandpa hug her."

Shen Jiyao handed Xiaodoumi over and entered the house with the old man.

Seeing Shen Jiyao looking around, the old man said: "You are looking for Ye'er, he is resting in the back room, and you just came, so you can talk to him."

Shen Jiyao nodded, and went to the back room to find Su Ye familiarly.

He opened the door and went in. Su Ye was lying on the bed. Seeing him coming, he quickly sat up and said with a smile, "You're here."

"Are you in poor health? Why are you lying on the bed?" Shen Jiyao suddenly became worried, walked to the edge of the bed, sat down and looked at his face carefully and said.

"It's okay." Su Ye was a little embarrassed by Shen Jiyao's look. He smiled shyly and said, "Brother Zhang and Dad are too nervous, and they have to let me lie down to feel at ease."

Shen Jiyao said puzzledly, "Why are they nervous?"

Su Ye didn't speak, but looked at his belly tenderly and touched, with the corners of his mouth raised in a happy smile.

Seeing this, Shen Jiyao was only puzzled for a moment before he understood. He smiled in surprise: "Could it be that you have a baby?"

Su Ye nodded and said, "I just found out not long ago, by the way, where did you go a few days ago, I went to you to tell you about it, but you are not at home."

"We're going to town." Shen Jiyao said, "By the way, the fetus should have snacks for the first few months, and don't eat anything. Don't eat rabbit meat. Take good care of it."

Su Ye nodded, and when he was about to say something more, the door was pushed open, and it was Zhang Tianwen who came in. After greeting Shen Jiyao, he walked up to Su Ye and said, "Ye'er, I will help you." , Ji Yao, let’s go, let’s eat, I’m ready.” Su Ye was a little awkward by his cautious appearance, but he couldn’t say anything, so he could only stand up with his strength, while Zhang Tianwen squatted down Go and shoe him.

Seeing this scene, Shen Jiyao smiled sincerely. Instead of being polite to Zhang Tianwen, he nodded cheerfully, got up and opened the automatically closed wooden door for the two of them to go out first, and then walked out behind him. .

At the dinner table, the old man cared a lot about Su Ye. When he saw that there was no food in the bowl, he would occasionally give him some food. It seemed that he was very satisfied and liked Su Ye.

Shen Jiyao felt very warm seeing the father and son taking a pregnant man seriously, so he couldn't help smiling.

After dinner, a few people sat in the courtyard to enjoy the shade, Zhang Tianwen and Lan Qianjue set up a chess set and walked there, Shen Jiyao and Su Ye sat aside and watched, Lan Qianjue took the pawns with a cannon, picked up the chess pieces and put them on the table. On the one hand, he said: "Apart from coming to see Brother Su, I also want to discuss something with Brother Tianwen."

"Eat me." Zhang Tianwen looked at it with a frown, and then walked on, saying: "You guys are welcome, if you have anything to say, let's discuss it together."

Lan Qianjue said: "Ji Yao plans to open a restaurant, and I want to ask if you are interested. If so, we will open a restaurant together."

"Open a restaurant?" Zhang Tianwen raised his eyebrows, quite surprised, and said, "Open recently? I'm afraid I won't be able to leave. Ye'er is pregnant now, and I have to take care of him all the time. If you don't have enough money, , I can lend it to you slowly, as for the partnership, forget it, and think about other things after the child is born."

Naturally, Lan Qianjue could understand his mood, so he said, "Okay, I won't force you, but there is one more thing I have to trouble you with, we have some rare vegetables, you can ask the villagers if they would like to Planting, we will pay to rent their land and hire them to grow vegetables for me, the price is good, do you think it is feasible?"

Zhang Tianwen paused, looked up at Lan Qianjue, and said, "I'm afraid this is a bit difficult. After all, everyone relies on the fields to grow food, but it is not impossible. As long as the price you give is reasonable, they will agree." Maybe, in a few days, I will go and ask the villagers what they mean."

Lan Qianjue clasped his hands together and said, "Then thank you Brother Tianwen first."

"Why are you being polite to me?" Zhang Tianwen laughed, and said, "I haven't thanked you for setting up a bridge between me and Ye'er. I will take care of this trivial matter, so don't worry."

Lan Qianjue smiled and said, "We don't need to be polite."

Zhang Tianwen looked at Lan Qianjue, and the two immediately looked at each other and laughed.

They stayed here until evening, and were kept for supper before returning.

Although whether Zhang Tianwen can help them grow vegetables has not yet been decided, but Shen Jiyao has already planned to find a shop first, and then cook dishes with ingredients first, and then make new dishes to publicize after the vegetables are grown. Incorporating in bit by bit, maybe it won't attract too much attention.

Shen Jiyao doesn't do business these days, but has been drawing up his menu.

While flipping through the recipes, he analyzed whether there were any ingredients, and if there were any, he copied down the names of the dishes.

The peppers they picked at the beginning have now been dried, and they are waiting to buy a stone bowl to mix the chili peppers. With the chili peppers, any dish is easy to cook. The first thing that bears the brunt is the Kung Pao dishes, such as Kung Pao Chicken , Kung Pao diced pork, kidney pork liver, and twice-cooked pork can all be made.

As for the dishes that need to be fried with sour chili, such as shredded fish-flavored pork, sliced ​​pork with pickled peppers, etc., they can be replaced by another kind of cornel fruit. This kind of cornel fruit is all sour. Shen Jiyao has tried it and it is no worse than sour pepper , but when the peppers are ripe, he still wants to make homemade sour peppers.

Stir-fried vegetables are simple. They can be stir-fried dry, sweet and sour. Anyway, Shen Jiyao doesn't pay attention to these. As long as there are vegetables to stir-fry, he can stir-fry them deliciously.

As for poultry and fish, there were too many recipes. Shen Jiyao copied almost all the menus he could, and waited to show his skills when the time came.

Of course, he also launched many special hot pots and hometown specialties, dry pot, which is one of his most confident ones. He also thought about going to the town to see if there are any tremella and lotus seeds, and he can sell them for money. Shen Jiyao had already thought about everything that could make money, and now he just waited to find a shop.

A few days later, the two of them came to the town again. They went around the whole town but couldn't find a shop that could be used as a restaurant. They wanted to choose a better shop to rent, but they couldn't find it at all. , I had no choice but to go to the Jianshi Hall to ask the Jianshi, and the two were lucky, and the Jianshi actually found a room for them, so they took the two to see.

The restaurant Jianshi said is located in the north of the town. The restaurant has two floors above and below. The shop is very spacious and looks quite imposing from the outside. There is a tree and a well, which is always full of water. There are nine houses in the yard, and there is no problem with people living there. This is exactly what Shen Jiyao wanted.

There is no need to find a new place to live, let alone spend money to buy water every day, which saves a lot of money.

No one has rented this restaurant for a long time. They all feel that the feng shui is too bad and it is far away from the downtown area, so they are unwilling to rent it. Correspondingly, the rent of this restaurant is also a few taels less than restaurants in other places, as long as a month. 32 taels of silver.

Shen Jiyao looked at the room that Lan Qianjue asked him, and Lan Qianjue said: "Yes, although it is a bit far from the downtown area, we are also well-known in the town, so we don't need to worry about the source of customers, or just this one. "

"Then this one." Shen Jiyao himself actually likes this restaurant very much. It is not only wide but also beautifully built. They don't need to renovate at all, they just clean it up and change a batch of tables, chairs and furnishings. After Lan Qianjue's analysis, he no longer hesitated.

Several people went back to the prison market hall to draw a bet, paid the money, and returned to the village with a paper contract.
