Emotions are so annoying, can't you just be a good friend? Until now, Ning Yan still had not thought things through. What did Zhang Tiehzhu like about her?
Back at her home, Ning Yan quickly fried the medicine on top of Wu Baoshi's body. After frying the medicine, she gave the mission of taking care of Wu Baoshi to Ning Xiu Yu. She went out to the courtyard and lit the barbecue stove, since there was no coal at home, Ning Yan could only replace it with charcoal.
The charcoal was made from pine wood picked up from the mountain. After being lit, it had a faint pine fragrance to it. It was perfect for roasting meat.
She tied the sliced meat up with a bamboo skewer and placed it on the grill. After brushing the meat with seasonings and smelling the unauthentic spicy taste, Ning Yan once again started to miss the chili peppers. She wondered if those Hu merchants had chili peppers in their hands.
It was a pity that the merchant did not come to the small county.
After roasting the meat skewers, he also skewered the vegetables from kitchen with bamboo sticks and placed them on the grill to roast along with the mushrooms.
Wu Baoshi's forehead was injured, so he could not eat spicy food. Ning Yan looked at Wu Baoshi's forehead and sighed, she had never had a break in his life before.
When she first passed through, it was her own forehead that was injured, followed by Mrs. Xu, then she picked up an injured Lu Hanzhang from the mountains.
At this time, Wu Baoshi was injured by Wu Huaishan's wrong hand. Other than Lu Hanzhang, everyone else was injured on the forehead. Was she related to a forehead injury?
Thinking about this, Ning Yan reached out her hands and hugged herself, shivering. It seems that I can delay the production of the helmet at the barbeque shop for a while, it would be better to make it early.
Based on the sample and the probability, Ning Yan felt that it would be safer to bring her helmet out.
"Hurry up and get well. Once your injuries are healed, you can eat with me." He held a skewer of roast meat in his hand and bit into it with a mouthful of oil.
When he spoke, his mouth was still glowing.
Wu Baoshi did not speak, and calmly drank the porridge in his bowl.
"..."
"..."
A few days had passed, and the wound on Wu Baoshi's forehead had already scabbed over. Ning Yan's level of roasting meat was also getting better and better.
Mrs. Qian would come over occasionally, chat with Wu Baoshi for a bit before leaving.
No one knew what they were busy with.
Early this morning, Ning Yan changed into a new set of clothes, carried a money bag with him, instructed Ning Xuemo to keep an eye on her home, and then walked out of the village.
Due to the supply of new dishes, the business of those restaurants in the county's Bai Family had become better.
Ning Yan first went to look for Zhou Quan, wanting to settle the deal regarding the supply of squid. Following the address given by Wet Nurse Bai, she found Zhou Quan's residence and stood at the entrance of the alley.
"Next, next. Our Master Zhou is a busy man. He won't meet everyone."
"…" Ning Yan saw that the person in front of him had stuffed a black bag into the hands of the person who was talking.
"Master Zhou came from Quanzhou, do you know where Quanzhou is? Quanzhou has many good things. The miasma that you think is barbaric and backward is something that happened hundreds of years ago. Now, Quanzhou has academies, scholars, and those scholars who read it …
Ning Yan turned around and left. Originally, she thought Zhou Quan was a smart person, but now it seemed like that was it, because with Zhou Quan's actions, most people knew that the raw material for the fried squid was Spring State's seafood squid.
However, seafood was not only available in Fujian, but also in the coastal cities of Jiangnan, eastern Lu.
The cost of shipping from Lu Dong was even cheaper than Fujian.
As for cooking recipes, how could there be so many recipes? Finding the ingredients and then groping them to make a delicious dish was far easier than pushing the ingredients back to the original. Thus, finding the cooking method was much easier.
The way to cook delicacies was to cook and fry a few dishes. After trying a few times, he would eventually find a way to cook.
The business of Bai Family was living because of the new dishes, how long one could live would depend on the abilities of Second Madam.
Ning Yan left the alley and found a famous middle-aged man. He told him about the shop's requirements and Ning Yan was brought to the corner of the east city. The middle-aged man pushed open the shop and walked in.
"Originally, this store is for the steamed buns business. There are quite a lot of people and it's located at a corner. It can even be placed on a few tables in front of the door. If it wasn't for the old couple's son getting addicted to gambling, he wouldn't have sold the store."
"Steamed Bun Business?" That stove and all that sort of stuff should be complete by now. "
"It's all here. Why don't we go to the kitchen and have a look?"
"Alright."
Ning Yan followed the middle-aged man to the kitchen Realm. Inside were three pots, one for cooking sugar and water, and the other two for setting steamed buns in a steamer.
The kitchen space was not small, so three or four people working there wouldn't be too crowded.
"Oh right, the tables and stools have been gifted to relatives by the main house. If you need them, you have to prepare them yourself." When the middle-aged man saw that Ning Yan was not dissatisfied, he started to slowly explain the specific situation.
After looking at the corner of the shop, the middle-aged man brought Ning Yan to look at three more shops.
Some of them had too little traffic, some had too little space on their kitchen, and some even opened up right in front of the gate leading into the courtyard. Ning Yan compared them and still chose the shop at the corner in the end.
The middle-aged man brought Ning Yan to see the shop's main house.
After signing the written agreement, a middle-aged man brought the written agreement to the yamen and sealed it. After completing the formalities and spending 50 silver, Ning Yan became the shop's new owner.
"Lady Ning, if there's anything else you need, you can look for me in the courtyard of the No.
"Sure."
Seeing that the middle aged man could not hide the smile on her face, Ning Yan knew that this business was going to be very profitable.
Buying a bun house with fifty taels of silver was a huge sum. After all, this was just a small town. If it were in the capital, fifty taels of silver could only buy one square meter of space …
Taking the written agreement, Ning Yan walked back to the shop and changed the lock on the door into a new one. After carefully inspecting it, Ning Yan found a famous carpenter, placed down the order, passed by the Zhang Tu Clan's stall, and saw the intestines that were thrown in the basket by the butcher, Ning Yan stopped and asked: "How much are you selling these small intestine?"
"If Lady Ning wants to buy this, it's not easy to deal with. It's troublesome."
"It doesn't matter." Ning Yan looked at the wadded up intestines, and suddenly thought of sausages. Sausages were a good thing. Whether it was grilled or fried, they were extremely good.
"You want all of them?"
"Just the small intestine." Hearing Zhang Tu Hu's question, Ning Xi quickly shook her head. Almost everyone knew that pork could be eaten in water, but it was not cheap, and it was troublesome to deal with.
Other than those who especially liked eating food and water, most people would rather buy two catties of fat meat than touch these random bits and pieces.
After weighing the intestines, Ning Yan asked for two catties of fat and two catties of thin meat. She carried the meat and walked over to the stand where roast duck was sold.
"How much is the duck intestines?"
"What?" The roast duck owner thought he had misheard. This was the first time someone had bought a duck's intestines from him. That thing was filthy, and it wasn't like a pig's intestines. It wasn't something that could be processed and served on a plate …
"No matter how much the duck intestines are sold, the duck intestines that you make for the roast duck should be thrown away. I'll buy it, don't scam me."
"If it's not a scam, then why don't we do it this way? It's half cheaper than a pig's intestines."
"Alright, alright." The thing that Ning Yan disliked the most was bargaining. When she heard the roast duck owner's price, he immediately set it down.
After buying everything, Ning Yan headed towards the city gate.
Just as she arrived at the entrance of the county city, Ning Yan saw Ning Wan'er standing beside a man wearing an embroidered skirt with a smile on her beautiful face.
Ning Wan'er took a silk flower from her stall and paid the manservant behind him swiftly.
Last time when he went to the Bai Family, he saw that the clothes worn by the servants of the Bai Family seemed to be like this. If that was the case, it would be very easy to find out the identity of the man beside Ning Wan'er. The youngest master of the Tongxian County had a very good relationship with the new county governor.
