I took my game account back to ancient times to do business

Chapter 241 Radish
Seeing that the time for setting up the banquet is approaching day by day, but some of the dishes for the vegetarian table are still uncertain, Qiao Yun thinks hard every day, and her head is almost bald.

If all the ingredients are available, she can come up with a hundred dishes.

What's embarrassing is that there are no suitable ingredients at all right now!

She racked her brains for the past few days, and she has arranged all eighteen vegetarian dishes, but the order is clearly nineteen, and there is one cold appetizer left at the end, she really can't think of what to use!

Shopkeeper Peng saw her pacing up and down in the backyard of the restaurant all day, and felt a little emotional in his heart.

He has also seen the food list she drew up. Indeed, the names of the dishes are ingenious, and the cooking techniques are also unheard of.Qiao Yun has already taught most of the lessons to the chefs in the restaurant, and Shopkeeper Peng is already convinced.

"In the usual banquets, there are also two hundred guan arrangements. It's enough to pick big meat dishes that are complicated to cook. It's a big deal to have a roasted camel."

Qiao Yun's eyes widened.

"Roast camel?"

"Yes." Shopkeeper Peng smiled, "You don't know. There are many barbarian restaurants in Beishi. The main dish is roasted camels. Ordinary people need to make reservations in advance. For our sake, go and order two urgently. It’s not impossible for a camel to come.”

As soon as these words came out, Qiao Yun rejected them.

She crossed her hips and shook her head again and again.

"That's not our family's food after all."

What's more, is it necessary to go back to the traditional Tang Dynasty banquet just because a table of vegetarian meals can't be perfect?
Wouldn't her ten days of exhaustive thinking be in vain?

In April in Dongdu, when the weather is fine, the sun is particularly strong. There is no place in Los Angeles that does not bloom. The warm wind wrapped in the scent of flowers makes the whole city drunk, but Qiao Yun is disturbed by the sun.

"Don't be annoyed, the car has its own way to the front of the mountain!" A boy came out from the kitchen, holding an ice bowl, the shopkeeper Peng took it, and handed it over to Qiao Yun as if to flatter him: "Master, have a bowl of crisps." Go to the mountain to get rid of the anger."

Qiao Yun glanced at it.

In the bowl is a pile of shaved ice, specially poured with thick cream, honey-fried petals and various preserved fruits.

She pursed her lips, took the ice bowl, scooped a small spoonful of shaved ice and put it into her mouth, her temples suddenly hurt from the cold.

Hey.Shopkeeper Peng laughed twice in his heart.

After all, a child can be coaxed with a bowl of dessert.

At this time, a young man stumbled out of the door, his head was sweating, he was out of breath, and he was about to rush over: "Shopkeeper, shopkeeper!"

Shopkeeper Peng hurriedly stopped him: "My boss is here, show some respect!"

The clerk stopped quickly, glanced at Qiao Yun, and said to shopkeeper Peng: "Shopkeeper, the letter you wrote to Yangzhou shopkeeper Dong earlier, he has already shipped the radish!"

"It's true!" Shopkeeper Peng was so surprised that he almost jumped up on the spot.

"What did I lie to you for? Twelve large boxes, covered with a layer of ice chips, a layer of fur, and a layer of silk cloth, were transported overnight on the Grand Canal, and they are still fresh! The goods are at the pier By the way, hurry up and ask someone to move over."

"Hey, this old thing!" Shopkeeper Peng thought it was funny, complaining about it, and was about to leave immediately.

Qiao Yun hurriedly called out: "What radish? So expensive?"

"Agate radish! From the south!"

Qiao Yun stood up immediately.

Not long after, twelve large boxes with excellent air permeability were transported to Ding Shi Ji.

Inside the box are small radishes the size of a baby's fist, bright red, really like agate, and the color is lovely and gratifying.

Qiao Yun's mind was in a mess.

Isn't this a cherry carrot?How can there be cherry carrots in this era?

Shopkeeper Peng rubbed his hands together and looked at Qiao Yun expectantly: "Master, these are the radishes I wrote to Yangzhou more than ten days ago and asked them to bring them in. The water, soil and climate in the south of the Yangtze River are good, and Xie Dadong's family is in the south of the Yangtze River. I discovered it by chance when I was traveling, and I specially kept the seeds and brought them back to Yangzhou, where they were cultivated."

This radish is precious.After a few years of cultivation by a few experienced vegetable farmers, the amount that can be supplied is barely enough for restaurants in the three cities of Suzhou, Yangzhou, and Hangzhou.Every year, a batch of the freshest ones will be selected first, and the main number in Yangzhou will be given priority, and the semicolons in Suzhou and Hangzhou will have to use the second batch.

Because Yangzhou has a large port, Ding Shi Ji relies on this sea port to transport a lot of foreign seafood. In order to reduce costs, the governor of Yangzhou is the object that Dong Shiji, the shopkeeper of Yangzhou Ding Shi Ji, wants to please every year.

April in Yangzhou is the season of Qionghua blooming. The governor's mansion holds a flower viewing banquet every year.

Therefore, no matter how many of the sharpest batches of agate radishes sold in early spring, he had to keep the portion for the Governor's Mansion to host the Qionghua Banquet.

Shopkeeper Peng knew that he had offended Qiao Yun badly at the beginning, so he wanted to send a big gift to make amends.The 240 agate radishes are what he wrote to ask for this time.As soon as these twelve boxes of radishes are taken away, the portion left to the governor of Yangzhou in Yangzhou this year will be gone!
If you don't want to offend the governor, you can only reduce the share of the money sold out.

Although he clearly said that he would pay according to the amount, he was scolded bloody by shopkeeper Dong, and his old face was lost.

They are all shopkeepers of the head office, and they are equal in front of Xie Dong's family. Why should they sacrifice the interests of Yangzhou and let him use it to please others?
It's all right to scold, but he still sent the 240 agate radishes according to the number.

Shopkeeper Peng slandered in his heart, Old Dong, he is capable of serving his boss's family, but he is a little narrow-minded and awkward.

But since he got the radish, it's okay for him to be scolded.Anyway, separated by hundreds of thousands of miles, he should have never seen those curse words in the letter.

Qiao Yun glanced at shopkeeper Peng's flattering smile, and felt relieved and grateful.

She naturally knew how difficult it was to transport twelve boxes of agate radishes from the south in ancient times when transportation was inconvenient.

No matter how much he offended himself before, this apology is heavy enough.

These chubby agate radishes really solved her urgent need.

"Thanks a lot."

"It's worth it in my heart to get such a word from you!" Shopkeeper Peng immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and made a long bow.

Time flies like an arrow.

Soon came the day when the banquet was to be set up, and all the dishes had been confirmed. Wang Jinzhi, Mrs. Cui and Cui Yue also came to try the dishes, and there was no one who was full of praise for the dishes.Today, the ingredients needed have been delivered to the large kitchen of the Wang family in advance, lying quietly in the basket, waiting to be served on the table tomorrow.

This time it was no longer like a wedding banquet at a farmhouse. Qiao Yun woke up to be busy after : in the morning, so she didn't sleep at all, and planned to stay up all night and do some things in advance.

Anyway, she is young, and she usually recharges her energy and stores up her energy. She is very energetic, and it is not difficult to stay up all night.

At this moment, most of the women in the kitchen of the Wang family are asleep, leaving only one or two women who are on duty at the gate of the courtyard outside. At this moment, they have set up a table, lit oil lamps, and are playing leaf cards.

Qiao Yun carried an insulated food box from the kitchen to the women on the corridor: "You have worked hard, come and have some supper."

"Oh, oh, how did you make it?"

"Isn't this something that Mrs. Ming'er holds for her birthday banquet? How can we eat it!"

Qiao Yun smiled and said, "No, no. I left some leftovers from cutting vegetables. I thought it would be a waste to throw them away. I simply made something. You guys should try it and see if it tastes good."

After hearing this, the women agreed to take the food box.

There are four bowls of hot soup cakes in the food box, which seem to be just out of the pan, and the thick porcelain bowls are a bit hot.

A woman held the bottom of the bowl and buckled the rim of the bowl, brought the soup cake to her mouth, blew lightly, drank the soup, and then her spirits shook.

"Delicious!"

"What a delicious soup, but it's not greasy at all, and it doesn't taste like meat."

A woman looked at Qiao Yun and asked, "Is this vegetarian soup?"

Qiao Yun smiled and nodded: "Yes, are you okay drinking?"

The mother-in-law smacked her lips, took another sip, and said, "It's better than the vegetarian food at Baima Temple!"

"I have lived most of my life, and this is the first time I know that vegetarian dishes can be so delicious!"

There was also a woman who even chanted Amitabha Buddha, and called out her sins: "It is said that those ladies are vegetarians to cultivate their morality, but this vegetable soup is so delicious, so how can they cultivate their character!"

Qiao Yun smiled faintly, she was calm on the surface, and she said some polite words, her heart was already full of joy, and she could jump three feet high.

Everything is in place, she is waiting for the banquet to end, counting the money until her hands cramp!
