Many families also wanted to get a piece of the pie.

But they did not dare to take advantage of the emperor's plan to open a workshop, so they set their sights on the Liang family and several other families.

It did attract quite a bit of attention, but it also annoyed the old gentlemen so much that they could only pretend to be sick and not see guests. They were both happy and miserable.

Also because the emperor wanted to open a workshop, canned food and soap became popular again in the capital.

Many people want to taste what the can tastes like.

Some businessmen who had long seen the business opportunity transported mutton and canned fruit from the northern border to the capital.

Then, before they could figure out how to sell the goods, they had just entered the city and the goods had not yet been unloaded.

When people asked what it was, they replied it was canned food.

Just as I was about to explain what canned food was, I thought of opening two cans and heating them up on a tin stove for everyone to see and smell.

Who would have thought that before he could do that, he heard a young man exclaim, "What? This is a can?"

"How much do you want to sell this can? I'll buy it all."

"How dare you be so arrogant? You actually want to take it all by yourself. Do you think we don't exist?"

"That's right, what's included? We have to buy a few cans too."

"Boss, how much is this can? Give me fifty cans of different flavors."

"I'll take fifty cans, too."

"I want thirty cans."

Boss: “…” Is he dreaming?

But I soon realized that this was not a dream, these people were really crazy.

So the canned mutton at 100 wen and the canned fruit at 80 wen were quickly sold out.

If it weren't for the regulations in Heyang County that the price of canned meat sold outside cannot exceed one hundred wen, and the price of canned fruit cannot exceed eighty wen, and if anyone fails to comply, they will not be shipped to them in the future, they really want to raise the price several times.

I just didn’t expect that such expensive canned food would sell so well.

On the first day after arriving in Beijing, I sold all the canned food I brought with me, but it was still not enough...

If I had known earlier, I would have brought more trucks.

They didn't know that this was all thanks to the old men and the emperor.

Nowadays, if a family can eat canned meat, it will be shown off for several days, which has become a new trend.

These people made some money, stayed in the capital for one night, and then immediately headed to the northern border without hesitation, preparing to get more canned food to sell.

Many merchants also transported goods to Fu Ze's Jiangnan area.

Some people also saw greater business opportunities and wanted to imitate the process of canning meat and canned fruit.

The taste is somewhat similar when the fruit is boiled with sugar.

But canned meat can never reproduce that taste.

What's more, I don't even know how to start.

I tried it with stewed lamb and used an empty ceramic jar to hold it.

Who knew it would become smelly the next day.

These people also understood that there must be some trick when sealing the cans, which is why the cans can be stored for more than half a year without going bad, and they simply couldn't imitate it.

Therefore, more spies headed towards Heyang County, all to steal the canning recipe.

Soon, waves of merchants headed towards Heyang County.

Then many people followed suit and headed towards Heyang County.

A few days later, a group of people entered Heyang County.

Just after entering the county town, I saw a lot of stalls on one side of the road.

They were selling a lot of food they had never seen before, and they were also shouting.

"Tanghulu, delicious Tanghulu."

“Liangpi, fresh and refreshing Liangpi.”

"Ice-cold melon, sold in slices."

“Delicious lamb and pork pies.”

"Sweet and delicious date cake, freshly baked date cake."

“Hot and tender tofu…”

There were many people standing in front of the stalls buying things, and there were even long queues in front of some stalls.

Shi Qingluo felt that there were too few snacks in the county town, and with so many people coming, it would be a loss if he didn't make any money.

So starting from a month ago, whenever I had free time, I would teach everyone how to make snacks in the county government office.

Of course, the county government has to investigate and make sure that the person has good character, has not done any bad things or has a criminal record, and that the family is indeed in some financial difficulties. Only then will we teach him.

The county government specially designated a road for them to set up stalls, turning it into a genuine snack street with a wide variety of food.

Shi Qingluo also taught everyone how to make tofu for free. Anyone who wanted to learn could come and learn, whether they were from the county town or villagers.

As a result, there are many more tofu sellers in the county.

Some villagers also carry their wares on poles and sell them everywhere, making some money every day.

Some people make tender tofu and sprinkle it with seasonings or add sugar to sell it, and business is pretty good.

Liang Mingyu looked at the lively snack street and the bustling crowds, almost giving him the feeling that he was in North City.

If the streets had not been old and run-down, and if many of the people passing by were not dressed in shabby clothes, he would have thought he had arrived in a prosperous metropolitan city.

He also found that the faces of these people gave people a different impression. Most of them were smiling, unlike the counties and towns he passed by before, where everyone looked sad or numb.

Heyang County is really different.

Liang Mingmin opened the carriage window and looked outside, and found that this place was a little different from what he had imagined.

She thought it would be like the county towns she had passed by before, extremely dilapidated and not lively.

It was quite lively here. Although the snacks smelled delicious, she thought they were dirty and looked down on them.

She asked, "Liang Mingyu, are we going to the inn or the county government office?"

Liang Mingyu, who was riding on the side, said, "Let's go to the inn first."

He wanted to take a walk first, get to know the current Heyang County, and then go find Xiao Hanzheng and his wife.

Liang Mingmin nodded, "That's fine."

Tired from the journey, she wanted to find a place to take a shower and have a nap.

If she had known that the journey was long and bumpy, and that the places along the way were poor, shabby and disgusting, she would not have come along.

Seeing that she agreed, Liang Mingyu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

It took them several days to get to Heyang County, all because of her finding faults.

He asked around and took his group to the best inn in Heyang County.

They were lucky as they happened to meet a caravan checking out of Room A, and his people immediately paid and took the room.

As soon as I booked the room, people came to ask one after another, wanting to stay in Room A and Room B.

This surprised Liang Mingyu very much. It seemed that the inn was doing very good business. Not only was it full, but it also seemed like there were not enough rooms.

Liang Mingmin was also a little puzzled. He didn't expect that the inn in this run-down little county town would be so crowded.

Is it really that good? She doesn't look that good.

Then the group went to Room A.

It didn't take long to notice the difference.

The room was not only warmly decorated, but also had many things that other inns didn't have, and even had a separate toilet and bathroom.

The toilet is very clean, with an automatic flush toilet and soft toilet paper next to it.

The bathroom is also separate, and you can actually take a shower while standing.

Not to mention the businessmen from other places, even Liang Mingyu and Liang Mingmin saw him for the first time.

No wonder this inn is doing so well. Even they can't find anything wrong with it.
