Chapter 451 River Shrimp
Shen Yueyao said, "So it seems that some foreign merchants bought rapeseed oil from our oil mill and sold it to the capital."
Su Xueyi looked at Shen Yueyao's sparkling eyes, smiled gently and said: "I saw the word 'Shen' written on the label, it should be the oil mill you opened."
Upon hearing this, Shen Yueyao was very happy.
She felt a magical feeling in her heart.
That is, the oil used for frying in my hometown actually arrived in Beijing.
You have to know that it is very far away from the capital.
I have to say that business in Liuhe Village is really good.
Merchants in the capital all buy things from there.
Shen Yueyao thought for a moment and said, "Then we can find some time to go and have a look."
Look at what the oil barrel looks like.
Su Xueyi looked at Shen Yueyao's expression, shook her head and laughed.
It seems that she always looks happy when talking about business matters.
Seeing that Yao Niang was in a good mood, Su Xueyi's mood would naturally improve as well.
Shen Yueyao seemed to be thinking of something and said, "The manager over there wrote to say that the oil mill earned more than 5,000 taels of silver last month."
In a place like that, it was quite good for the oil mill to earn so much money in a month.
But after coming to Beijing, I realized that doing business in Beijing is the real way to make money.
Open a shop and make money.
It’s just that the consumption level in Beijing is high and the things you buy are very expensive.
In Liuhe Village, one cent can buy three duck eggs, but here it costs three or four cents to buy one duck egg.
Not to mention vegetables and grains, some of their prices have doubled.
And the house prices are really expensive.
In fact, there was really no pressure when I was in Liuhe Village.
But Shen Yueyao also understood that if she wanted to expand her business and her workshop so that no one dared to cause trouble, she would need to have enough power.
Given her current status and that of Su Xueyi, naturally no one dared to do anything.
Although they are only sixth-rank, the emperor attaches great importance to the Su family.
Everyone understands that the emperor values it more than anything else.
As Shen Yueyao and Su Xueyi were talking about this, they finished chopping the eggs in the pot.
Then she started seasoning the leeks.
Su Xueyi had already put the chopped chives into the large basin.
Shen Yueyao poured some oil into the basin and began to stir it. This was the step of mixing the oil.
Then add some salt to reduce the water release of the leeks.
Pour in the scrambled eggs and start stirring.
While stirring, Shen Yueyao couldn't help but sigh: "It would be nice if there were shrimps."
“It’s delicious if it’s made with shrimp.”
The chive dumplings I made in the countryside before did not contain shrimps. Although they were delicious, they tasted better with shrimps.
Su Xueyi seemed to have thought of something and said, "I remember my cousin sent me a package of shrimps a while ago. They are in the cellar. I wonder if they can be used."
Although Su Xueyi didn't know what shrimp goods were.
But when I heard Yao Niang talking about shrimp, I guessed that there might be some connection between the two.
When Shen Yueyao heard this, she immediately became excited, "What did you say, there are shrimp goods?"
Seeing Shen Yueyao so excited, Su Xueyi knew that the thing should be useful.
"Well, my aunt and uncle had someone bring it to Beijing from Liuzhou. My cousin brought a copy over a while ago. Mom didn't know what it was or how to use it, so she put it away."
Shen Yueyao quickly put down her chopsticks and said, "I'll go over and take a look."
As she spoke, she and Su Xueyi went to the cellar to take a look.
The cellar is warm in winter and cool in summer, making it convenient for storing things.
"It was delivered two days ago."
When Shen Yueyao saw the prawn, she was a little shocked, "There are prawns this big."
"These are the shrimps. Peel them and you'll see the shrimp meat..."
After Shen Yueyao and Su Xueyi brought it up, they washed, steamed and cooked it, then began to process the shrimp skin and make the shrimp meat.
Then cut it into pieces and put it into a bowl and mix it together.
After the filling is mixed, take out the panel and the two of them start wrapping the leek boxes together.
Pack a lot so that the whole family can eat to their heart's content in the evening.
After wrapping them up, Shen Yueyao and Su Xueyi prepared to pick up Dabao and Erbao.
Receive it this way and then fry the chive dumplings directly.
"The chive dumplings with shrimp will be more delicious and fragrant."
"Liuzhou has a well-developed water system, and it looks like there are a lot of river shrimp."
I don’t know if there will be crabs. If there are crabs, it would be great to cook them or make crab sauce.
There are also crayfish. When she thinks of spicy crayfish and spicy crab, she feels hungry.
Su Xueyi wondered if those shrimps were called river shrimps?
Su Xueyi and Shen Yueyao discussed these things as they walked towards the Imperial College.
It was still early when they arrived, but many carriages were already parked in front of the Imperial College.
That Nie Jianju came in person to pick up his son.
The reason why he came here in person was to meet Lord Su and his wife.
He just wanted to learn more from Lord Su.
He learned pinyin that morning and went home to study it. The more he studied, the more shocked he became.
He now looked at Lord Su and saw that he was full of admiration for him.
Su Xueyi's attention was originally on his wife.
But when I stood at the door, I could always feel the burning realization coming from somewhere.
He looked over there and saw Master Nie.
Su Xueyi looked a little helpless and pinched her eyebrows with her hands.
Shen Yueyao found it a little funny and said, "That Master Nie is looking at you."
Shen Yueyao found it a little funny.
I thought that this is how Su Xueyi looks to those who want to study pinyin.
Su Xueyi looked at Shen Yueyao's expression, shook her head helplessly and said: "Naughty!"
Shen Yueyao said: "But to be honest, it's a good thing I didn't say that I was the one who researched Pinyin, but that you were the one who researched it."
Otherwise, if everyone comes to ask her, she will have a headache.
She still likes to open a shop and do business.
That's when it becomes interesting.
When Su Xueyi thought about the scene of people surrounding Yao Niang and asking her about her pinyin, he felt a little depressed.
Nie Jianju hesitated for a moment, but still came over to ask Su Xueyi for advice.
Shen Yueyao looked around and felt that most of the people who came to pick up the students from the Imperial College were servants and housekeepers, and she had never seen the ladies.
Shen Yueyao was waiting patiently beside him.
After a while, there was a noise from inside.
After a while, one student after another came out carrying their book boxes.
Only Dabao and Erbao were carrying schoolbags.
Shen Yueyao felt that schoolbags were more convenient.
Just as Dabao and Erbao were walking out, a boy who was older than them walked up to them and said, "Hey, brothers, can I ask where you bought this?"
He saw that their things were filled with a lot of things, and they looked convenient and light, much more useful than their bookcases.
Dabao said seriously: "Big brother, this is what my mother made for us. We didn't buy it from somewhere else."
When they were in Liuhe Village, they thought that such school bags were very common, because their mother's embroidery workshop made such school bags and many other small bags.
But when they arrived in Beijing, they found that many people did not have schoolbags.
They liked the schoolbags their mother made for them more and more. They took good care of them and were careful not to get them dirty.
