After a while, the waiter came back with an empty plate.
The plate was empty, and even the garlic sprouts were eaten clean. The waiter wiped his sweat, thinking that the scene just now was too horrible: "Master Tian, the guests are about to fight over this dish, and there are still several All the guests said they want to order this dish.”
The chef on the side looked helplessly at the empty plate, with a look of disappointment on his face: "Why are there none? I still want to eat."
Hongbo couldn't help laughing while covering his lips.
Su Ying glanced at the shopkeeper showing joy, and asked with a smile: "I wonder if shopkeeper Tian is satisfied with this dish?"
Tian Zhang pondered for a while and said, "How about this, this dish costs five taels of silver, what do you think, Miss?"
Su Ying smiled faintly: "Does the shopkeeper think this is only worth five taels? Then this dish will be given to you, and I don't want any money."
Seeing Su Ying turning around and leaving, Hongbo subconsciously thought about what to do and what to eat at night, but she soon understood.
Seeing Su Ying turning around to leave, the shopkeeper wondered if she had other recipes, so he quickly stopped Su Ying: "Miss, how about ten taels of silver? How many recipes do you have here, I want them all. "
Su Ying paused, with a smile on her lips, ten taels of silver for a recipe, if she sold ten recipes, she would get one hundred taels of silver, Su Ying was satisfied with the price in her heart.
One hundred taels of silver should be enough to set up a storefront, and the rest of the silver can make life better for the rest of the day.
Su Ying went to the kitchen to make nine dishes including Dongpo Pork, Sweet and Sour Pork, Tea Fragrant Chicken, and Baked Pumpkin with Egg Yolk.
After Hongbo brought all these dishes to the table, every time shopkeeper Tian tasted something, the expression on his face was one point of surprise. He has been running the restaurant for so many years, and he has tasted countless delicacies, but he has never tasted Dishes made this way.
After these dishes were taken out by the waiter, they were immediately divided up by these customers.
At the beginning, these guests regretted that they did not eat the dishes of the other restaurant, but now after eating these dishes, they feel very lucky, and immediately start ordering these new dishes.
Shopkeeper Tian immediately made a decision: "I want all ten recipes. However, I have one more request. I wonder if the girl can agree?"
"Please say."
"If you sell these recipes to us, you can't sell them to other restaurants."
"It's natural. One thing is not easy and two masters. If Shopkeeper Tian doesn't believe it, we can sign a contract."
Shopkeeper Tian nodded: "Young lady can't spread the news, otherwise if other restaurants are looking for girls..."
Su Ying originally wanted to keep a low profile, and this request was exactly what she wanted, so she immediately responded, "Of course."
Su Ying thought for a while and felt that Shopkeeper Tian had been running the restaurant here for many years, and he also had connections, so she asked, "Can I ask Shopkeeper Tian to look out for any good shops around?"
Shopkeeper Tian agreed straight away: "Yes, yes."
After the two negotiated the deal, shopkeeper Tian said to the waiter in the store: "Okay, I will do as you said. Xiao Chen, go to the cashier and pay a hundred taels of silver."
"Hey, yes!"
Su Ying took one hundred taels of silver and went home with Hong Bo.
On the way back, Hongbo smiled and said, "Miss, you still have this skill."
"Yes, Miss, I have great powers."
In any case, at least they don't have to struggle with food and clothing.
Shopkeeper Tian was very efficient, and sent someone to inform them the next day that there was a good store, because the owner was in a hurry to sell it, and the price was reasonable.
He even heard that they wanted to buy people and told them that there was a population market on West Street.
When Su Ying and Hong Bo went to West Street in a carriage, they suddenly had a feeling of going from a prosperous city to a poor countryside.
The houses here are low and sparsely populated, and occasionally a few people who pass by are also dressed in rags.
The population market is still inside, but the road is so remote that even a carriage can't get in, so Su Ying and Hong Bo got off the carriage and walked in.
The population market looked very messy, and there were many people sitting or kneeling inside. They were dressed in rags, their hair was messy, and they looked like they hadn't bathed for a long time. Most of them looked sallow and emaciated due to long-term starvation.
Hongbo couldn't bear to look at it: "Miss, the people here look so pitiful."
"Who would sell himself as a slave if he hadn't been driven to a dead end by life."
"Crack!" Seeing the disobedient ones, some traffickers whipped them directly. The sound made people feel pain, and they couldn't help but feel their scalp numb.
Su Ying looked at these people holding straws behind their backs one by one, and selected the one she wanted based on experience.
When she passed a corner, she happened to hear a buyer in front say: "I only want these two people, not that kid..."
A woman cried and hugged her child, disagreeing with life and death: "No... I will not leave my child..."
After listening for a while, Su Ying immediately understood that this was a family of three.
The couple seemed to be in good shape, but they also had a child who had suffered for a long time and was sickly. His hair looked yellow and he was very thin.
The buyer took a fancy to the couple, but didn't want the child, but it was naturally impossible for the couple to abandon their child.
The seller smiled and said to the seller: "How about this, the child doesn't want money, so give it away for nothing?"
The buyer said unhappily: "Huh? Wouldn't it be necessary to pay an extra grain for such a child to come over? I only want the two older ones. If not, I'll go to another place to buy them."
In the end, the business was not negotiated, and the seller was so angry that he cursed at once: "It's really unlucky, it's the three of you."
Little did they know how much the seller wanted to sell the three of them, but it was agreed before that the three of them would sell together. But many buyers came, and no one wanted the child at all.
The seller is worried that if he keeps them, they will become thinner and thinner, and he is afraid that they cannot afford the price.
The husband at the side was a taciturn person, he just stepped forward to protect his wife and children silently, and the seller became even more angry, and was about to kick him over.
Su Ying was a mother, and when she saw the child lying there clutching her belly, she felt pity, and she walked up quickly: "Wait a minute, I wonder how much taels this couple wants?"
Seeing that someone came up to ask the price again, the seller rubbed his hands and said, "This woman has five taels of silver, and this man has six taels of silver. If both of them buy, this child will give it away for nothing."
Su Ying immediately agreed: "Okay, I want it."
The seller was afraid that others would continue to dislike him, so he directly offered to buy two and get one free. He was afraid that the girl in front of him would not want it, so he was about to lower the price further.
He didn't expect that when he heard Su Ying being so forthright, he would be a little stunned: "Ha, good job!"
The couple couldn't help but kowtow to Su Ying and the others according to their own child.
