Chapter 85: Pie in the sky

Views:

Back in the room, Shen Ning asked Xiaoru to take out the things she had prepared, which were ten very tough fishing nets.

Xiao Ru was puzzled and couldn't understand what weird tricks the eldest lady was trying to do. Did she want to make money by fishing? But there is only one moat in Kyoto, and there are no fish in that river.

Shen Ning sent Chuntao and Xia He out, bolted the door, then climbed up with a ladder and hung the fishing nets one by one under the beams, densely packed, layer after layer.

After finishing the arrangement, she clapped her hands, looked up at her masterpiece, and smiled with satisfaction.

Now she has laid a dragnet and is waiting for Chu Shaobai to fall into the trap. As long as he dares to come at night, he will definitely fall into her net.

Xiao Ru opened her mouth wide and couldn't close it for a long time.

"Miss, are you worried that the tiles on the roof will fall off when you hang so many fishing nets on them?" she asked in confusion.

"No." Shen Ning put away her smile and said seriously: "Have you ever heard of pie falling from the sky? I have prepared a fishing net and am ready to catch a big pie."

That night, Shen Ning slept very peacefully. When she opened her eyes, it was already bright.

The fishing nets on the roof beams were hung neatly, and it looked like no one had touched them at all.

The first thing she does after getting up is to look in the mirror.

When she saw her face in the mirror was smooth and there were no animals drawn on it, she felt slightly disappointed.

Chu Shaobai didn't show up all night.

Did he discover the trap she arranged

Shen Ning shook her head in confusion, but she quickly put the problem behind her.

She believed that Chu Shaobai didn't come last night, and if he didn't come tonight, he would come sooner or later.

All she had to do was open the net and wait quietly.

After breakfast, she changed her clothes as usual, painted her face yellow, and said to Xiao Ru: "Let's go out with me to make money."

When Xiao Ru heard about making money, her eyes lit up and she followed Shen Ning excitedly.

Shen Ning took the exit token and easily left the palace.

"Miss, are we still going to Taihe Building? You can write another recipe for the shopkeeper and earn him a thousand taels of silver." Xiao Ru looked excited.

Shen Ning smiled and pinched the tip of her nose: "Do you think your lady and I sell recipes? Those four recipes were just written down by me by chance. If it were so easy to make money, your lady would still use it. Do you set up a calligraphy booth to tell people’s fortunes?”

She is a well-trained memory master from modern times. She has a photographic memory and has built a memory palace in her brain.

In addition to high-intensity training, she also likes to read some miscellaneous books as a pastime in her spare time. The recipes for these four dishes were read in a book and stayed in her mind. In the palace.

Unexpectedly, after traveling through time, she was actually sold for one thousand taels of silver, which was considered an unexpected fortune.

Xiao Ru stuck out her tongue in embarrassment.

As long as she walks the road once, Shen Ning will never forget it again.

She pulled Xiao Ru, turning east and west, and soon arrived at the street that was crowded with people and full of business opportunities.

The street vendors set up their stalls and were in full swing.

Shen Ning walked slowly towards the end of the street. Suddenly, she stopped and looked straight ahead. The smile on her face suddenly froze.
