Chapter 160 Talking about business

   "The governor of Yantie? It's that old man Sun Zhengwen. That old man is very rigid. No wonder you got rejected by him." Qin Jinghao shook his head with a smile on his face.

Several of his shops are related to the goods under the jurisdiction of salt and iron. The people at the bottom always look sad when they meet the old man. He met him once. The old man is very backbone, but he has a unique hobby - Xi Yang bird.

   Later, he sent someone to find a rare feather-picking auspicious bird and gave it to him, and the old guy turned a blind eye to his shop.

  Hearing that Meng Jun was shut in front of his door, he wasn't surprised at all, but thinking of such an indifferent person as Meng Jun, thinking of being shut up made him laugh a little bit.

   "I have a way, Meng Jun. If you don't call me prince in the future, Meng Jun, I will tell you." Qin Jinghao smiled, watching him deliberately raise his eyebrows as a joke.

  Meng Jun glanced at him, shook his head and said calmly: "No, this is an important matter involving officials, I believe Master Sun will not sit idly by."

  Qin Jinghao choked, and helplessly poked the fish meat with his chopsticks, and said, "Forget it, my young master will accompany you for a while."

  Meng Jun was grateful when he heard this, but he shook his head and refused: "My lord has a noble status, so there is no need to show up because of these trivial matters."

  Now no one has discovered his relationship with the prince, and Meng Jun doesn't want to expose this simple friendship to the public, let alone cause trouble.

Qin Jinghao was rejected again and again, but he was not angry, but said triumphantly while eating fish: "You go to yours, I go to mine, I am visiting an old friend, and I don't know you. A fast catcher who doesn't know a good heart."

  Meng Jun knew that he couldn't speak against him, so he shook his head helplessly, lowered his head and continued to eat fish.

  Qin Jinghao didn't talk about it anymore, the more the fish was chewed, the more delicious it was, even better than the one made by the royal chef in the palace. What Meng Jun said made sense, and it was not bad as a signature dish.

  …

   "Father, why hasn't that uncle come?"

  In the wing room, Jiaojiao was leaning on the back of the chair, her round belly could not be covered by her clothes, she was looking eagerly at the door.

  Today's meal is too much. In order not to waste it, both of them are full.

  Wang Zhuangzhi was also a little restless, and couldn't help but start to have other speculations in his heart. The boss looked flattering, and he gave them food and drink for free, and settled them here. Could it be that they want to detain the two of them here?

  Although he thought so in his heart, in order to make Jiaojiao not afraid, Wang Zhuangzhi smiled and said to his daughter: "Jiaojiao is not afraid, picking the bones of fish is hard, maybe my master hasn't finished eating yet."

  Jiaojiao nodded when she heard this, "Okay."

  Wang Zhuangzhi was hesitating whether to go out and have a look, when the door was suddenly pushed open.

  It was the shopkeeper just now, he walked in with a smile on his face and said, "Did you two finish your meal?"

  Wang Zhuangzhi hurriedly got up and thanked: "Thank you for the warm hospitality of the shopkeeper, I am full."

  The shopkeeper nodded and smiled, "That's good, I'll ask someone to remove these things, let's sit down and have a good discussion."

   After finishing speaking, the shopkeeper called two waiters and cleared out all the dishes, dishes and chopsticks on the table.

   Afterwards, the shopkeeper invited Wang Zhuangzhi to sit down, and asked with a smile, "I don't know the name of the strong man?"

  Wang Zhuangzhi also guessed that he wanted to talk about Chiyu, so he said neither humble nor overbearing: "My surname is Wang, and my name is Wang Zhuangzhi."

  The shopkeeper had a smile on his face, and he didn't go around the corner, and started talking about business directly.

   "Then I won't play tricks anymore. The main reason why Zhuangzhi stayed today is for the fish. I don't know if Zhuangzhi can only sell the fish in our restaurant."

  Wang Zhuangzhi noticed that what he said was only sold to their family.

The red fish is delicious, if they sell it in a restaurant, it will naturally attract more customers, but for them, it is the same to sell it to anyone, if the fish is raised, there must be other customers, and they can't just because of them One family broke the business of other customers.

Wang Zhuangzhi smiled and said: "Shopkeeper, this matter is uncertain, it also depends on our output, if there is not much, you can buy it, if there is a large amount in the future, there will definitely be enough to supply your restaurant. It will inevitably be sold to others.”

The shopkeeper was not worried at all, but smiled and said: "Yes, so our boss said, we want as much as you have, and the price is as we said just now. If you agree to only supply our restaurant, The owner also promised to give you 5,000 taels of silver after signing the painting, Brother Zhuangzhi can think about it."

  A piece of ten taels, five thousand taels back?

  Wang Zhuangzhi's heart was pounding, his palms were sweating nervously, hey boy, why is there so much money? He was so scared and excited at the moment that he didn't know how to speak.

  Jiaojiao heard about it, and counted with her fingers. Compared with her sister who sold a fish for 30 yuan a catty in the town, this uncle gave 10 taels of silver.

   This calculation is about the same value as some herbal medicines. The red fish itself is not expensive, but because it has been raised in the stream water in the space, it is naturally not comparable to ordinary fish.

Well, in fact, ten taels of silver is not too much, but fish is to be made into a dish after all, and the cost is expensive, maybe a fish can be sold for twenty taels of silver, ordinary people can't afford it at all, and the food is probably rich and noble people.

   Thinking of Master saying that a plate of dim sum he ate would cost one thousand taels of silver, Jiaojiao felt that those rich people must not be short of money, not to mention the red fish raised in the stream is good for the body.

She slid down from the chair and ran to Dad's side, looked at the shopkeeper with **** and white eyes, thought for a while and said, "Uncle, we have a medicine shop at home, and the fish in the pond are raised with wild ganoderma and ginseng." A Ganoderma lucidum can be bought for five hundred taels, and ginseng is worth a thousand gold for a century-old ginseng. The fish meat raised in this way can strengthen the body and nourish the body and mind, and the ten taels you give is not as much as we can sell for a single herb."

  Jiaojiao didn't lie to him either, the efficacy of the stream water is much stronger than that of Ganoderma lucidum and ginseng, a fish weighs two catties and only weighs ten taels, and a few herbs dug up the mountain can be sold for dozens of taels.

  Wang Zhuangzhi hugged his daughter tremblingly, darling, ten taels of silver is a sky-high price, how dare Jiaojiao ask for the price.

   Besides, he has never heard that there are Ganoderma lucidum and ginseng in the pond. Could it be Jiaojiao's nonsense?

  The shopkeeper suddenly realized when he heard about it, "So that's how it is."

   No wonder the fish has no fishy smell, the meat is white and tender without any impurities, and the fish boiled in clear water are so delicious, so it was raised in this way.

  Ganoderma lucidum and ginseng are good things. If they are advertised on the fish after listing, wouldn’t it be another highlight.

  The consumption in their restaurant is either rich or expensive. Even ordinary people need ten taels of silver for a meal, and rich people can spend hundreds or even thousands of dollars in a single room.

  In the past, there were quite a lot of customers, but with the opening of a restaurant called Private Kitchen, with a signboard of exclusive and secret braised pig's trotters, customers flocked to that restaurant, and their restaurant's business became worse day by day.
