Chapter 456 Strawberry
Li Xiaocao thought about this with a determined look in his eyes.
Chen Shizhu was very excited when he thought about assisting his master and learning how to perform surgery today.
He was so excited that he fell asleep late last night.
He knew that he could learn a lot from his master.
At this time, Chen Shizhu was helping his master carry the medicine box, and they both looked energetic.
Shen Yueyao naturally didn't know what these two people were thinking.
After arriving at Li Bing's house, Li Bing was very excited to see his host.
This means his leg will be healed soon.
Although he didn't know much about his boss's medical skills, his youngest daughter did.
The person the youngest daughter mentioned most when she returned home was her boss, and the person she loved the most was also her boss.
For Li Xiaocao, the boss is their master.
She studied medicine, and her master was Chen Shizhu. Chen Shizhu's master was Dongjia, so Dongjia was her master's master.
Not to mention that the boss is her master, just this relationship makes Li Xiaocao more loyal to the boss.
Shen Yueyao had already checked Li Bing's leg injury.
She now has a pharmacy, many surgical tools and medicines, so performing surgery is much easier.
Besides, Li Bing’s leg injury was not serious and could not be compared with Su Xueyi’s leg injury.
After everyone was ready, Li Bing lay down, and after Shen Yueyao gave her anesthesia, she guided Chen Shizhu throughout the operation.
Chen Shizhu had Shen Yueyao's guidance, and he had practiced with small animals before, so when he was really immersed in the operation, Chen Shizhu looked very focused, and he was focused and calm even when holding the surgical tools in his hands.
Although Li Xiaocao was also nervous, she gradually calmed down when she saw the calm and steady expressions of her master and great-grandmaster.
She would help pass things and wipe the sweat off the master's forehead.
These are some of the things they learn about surgery.
She knows what a scalpel does.
Whatever the master said, she would immediately take it out and hand it to the master.
Everyone cooperated very well throughout the whole process.
More than an hour later, Chen Shizhu had fixed Li Bing's leg.
He slowly breathed a sigh of relief.
Shen Yueyao said in an encouraging tone: "The operation was successful."
Upon hearing this, Chen Shizhu's eyes turned red.
He really knows how to perform surgery.
He looked at his hands and realized that his daily practice with the scalpel was worth it.
Practice suturing every day.
Li Xiaocao was so excited that he almost cried. What the boss said meant that his father's leg could get better and he could stand up and walk normally instead of limping.
Li Xiaocao was so grateful that she almost knelt down.
But she also knew that her boss was not used to them kneeling down to say those words.
So she could only keep her gratitude silently in her heart.
It's time to help clean up and put things away.
Shen Yueyao and Chen Shizhu explained some things and asked Li Xiaocao to take care of her father more often.
Li Xiaocao remembered them all.
On the way back, Chen Shizhu was still a little bit unbelieving, and was so excited that he was a little unsteady when walking.
Seeing Chen Shizhu like this, Shen Yueyao could only say: "Medical skills are an endless process of learning. This operation is just a small operation. Don't be proud and complacent. You still have a lot to learn."
Upon hearing this, Chen Shizhu's expression immediately changed, "Yes, Master."
He really cannot get excited or proud and complacent, as he needs to learn a lot from his master.
His medical skills are just the tip of his master's.
Thinking of this, Chen Shizhu's expression became much calmer.
At this time, the people in the village had already picked a lot of strawberries.
Lin Chi and his men drove a horse-drawn carriage to transport the first batch of strawberries to a milk tea dessert shop in the inner city.
When the carriage arrived at the door of the milk tea shop, people buying things in the milk tea shop looked at the carriage curiously.
"Is this another delivery?"
"Business is so good in the store. This guy makes several deliveries every day."
"No, I saw him deliver the goods through the back door before, why did he come through the front door this time?"
Lin Chi and two people from the farm brought down baskets of strawberries.
The big red strawberries are placed in the basket, and everyone can see them clearly at a glance.
Not to mention the people in the private room on the second floor, who could also see the strawberries in the basket very clearly by looking down from the window.
Everyone was stunned when they saw this.
"What is this? It looks so colorful."
"They look like little red fruits, but I don't know if they taste good."
"Yeah, something I've never seen before. Is it fruit?"
"No, does the milk tea dessert shop also sell fruit?"
"It looks delicious. Let's go ask how much it costs per pound. We'll buy a basket and try it."
"I don't know if it tastes good, so I'll buy some to try first."
"Do you think the fruit products from someone who invented milk tea desserts wouldn't be delicious?"
Everyone thinks this thing looks delicious.
And since there weren't many of them, everyone was afraid that they had been bought by someone else, so they quickly asked the maids around them to buy them.
Someone who was drinking milk tea on the first floor saw this and hurriedly asked, "Boss, are you selling these?"
Zhou Chong had been instructed by his master a long time ago, so he naturally knew that these fruits had to be sold in the store.
He said loudly: "This is a strawberry, red and sweet, good for the body, cleans the lungs..."
He repeated everything his master had said before.
However, the master didn't mention the price at that time, so Zhou Chong looked at Lin Chi.
Lin Chi whispered in Zhou Chong's ear, "One hundred coins per pound."
Zhou Chong heard it and quickly said the number.
When everyone heard this, they said, "Hey, such delicious fruit, it doesn't look expensive, let's buy a basket and try it."
Normally, these ladies would spend hundreds of taels of silver to buy a box of rouge and powder, and would also spend hundreds of taels of silver to have a meal in a restaurant. A hundred coins was really cheap for them.
But it is a bit expensive for ordinary people in Beijing.
For these people, they would not buy strawberries even if they were half price.
So from the very beginning, Shen Yueyao’s main focus was on high-end positioning.
Scarcity makes things valuable.
In addition, fruits are indeed scarce in this season. When strawberries are released, everyone will find out that they are sweet and delicious after trying them, so naturally many people will buy them.
The strawberry seeds were taken out by Shen Yueyao from the space. They have their own space aura and improved effect, so the strawberry tastes naturally better.
However, many people also want to buy a pound to try it first.
People in the private rooms on the second floor buy a whole basket at a time.
The first person to buy took a pound of strawberries, ate one, and was stunned. He stood up and exclaimed, "This is so delicious!"
At this time, some people had already bought strawberries and they sat at the table to taste them.
When I tasted it, I was really amazed by the taste of strawberry.
“It’s delicious. It’s really delicious.”
"What kind of magical fruit is this?"
"One hundred coins per pound, it's really not expensive. Such delicious fruit."
"Any more? I'll buy a basket."
Some people only buy a pound to try it out, and don’t bother to taste it more. They just want to buy more quickly before it’s gone.
You should know that some of the things in milk tea dessert shops are limited editions.
The ham sausage bread that they liked before, which was so delicious, they ate it in the morning, and when they came to buy it in the afternoon, it was gone. Isn’t it frustrating?
So everyone wanted to buy a basket at once.
Some people would buy two baskets directly and take them home to let their family members taste them.
They had never even seen this delicious fruit before.
"What kind of god is the owner of this shop? How can he make such delicious food? Wow, it's so delicious."
They all want to cry when it tastes delicious.
"I'm a sixth-rank lady bestowed by the emperor himself. I can find high-yield crops, so it's no surprise that I can find such delicious fruits."
Many people have connections behind the scenes and are aware of the dynamics in the court.
I also know who owns this store.
Didn’t you see the plaque in front of the store that says Zhuangyuan Milk Tea Dessert Shop?
The food is so delicious, I heard that even the emperor likes it.
Yes, everyone likes to eat such delicious food.
They like to come here for a cup of milk tea every now and then.
When I drink milk tea, I feel it is sweet and delicious.
Sometimes we book a private room and gather with three or five friends, drinking milk tea and eating desserts, which is really a pleasure.
Well, now there is fruit.
Zhou Chong looked at everyone actively buying things and the smile on his face became even brighter.
The store business is good and the boss gives them big bonuses.
So they work very hard.
Everyone asked questions at once, and they all helped to explain very patiently.
"Okay, a basket of strawberries... this is 20 kilograms..."
"Here, two taels of silver, hurry up."
Everyone was afraid that if they paid the money too late, the strawberries would be snatched away.
Some of them were carrying baskets of strawberries, and were so excited that they didn't even bother to eat them in the store, and hurriedly took the basket home.
"Hurry up and go home and let grandma taste it. She will definitely say it's delicious and praise me."
The young man who was speaking excitedly asked the servant to drive the carriage home.
His grandmother has always had a poor appetite.
But ever since he brought milk tea and cake to his grandmother, she was happy to eat them.
Among all his brothers and sisters, he was the one his grandmother loved the most.
Because his grandmother loved him and his father treated him well, none of his half-brothers could surpass his status.
He wanted to quickly deliver the strawberries to his grandmother before anyone else could react.
Many people went home carrying baskets of strawberries.
There were also some ladies gathered in the private room on the second floor, bringing baskets of strawberries to eat, and they were very excited.
“It’s delicious.”
"Yeah, I didn't expect it to be so delicious. Fortunately, we came to the store today, otherwise we wouldn't have known there were such delicious fruits."
"Wow, it's like a divine fruit. So delicious and sweet."
“It’s so delicious!”
Everyone ate excitedly and praised the food.
Three or four people gathered in a private room and finished a basket of strawberries in no time.
After eating, everyone still felt that they had not had enough.
"Buy another basket."
"right."
The lady arranged for the maid to go downstairs and buy another basket.
But the maid came back up soon after she went downstairs.
Everyone stared at her and asked, "Where's the strawberry?"
The maid said, "The shopkeeper said all the strawberries were sold out, and when I went downstairs, the last basket was snatched away."
Everyone stood up quickly when they heard this.
"No, how come everything is sold out in just a short while?"
"Exactly, how can the boss run a business? Such delicious food only makes so little. It's not enough to eat, okay?"
"Yes, we also want to go home and bring some for our family."
"It's something so delicious, and my family hasn't eaten it yet."
"The point is, we haven't had enough."
"That's right, we haven't eaten yet."
Everyone was unhappy and thought that this was not the way business should be done.
They hadn't eaten enough yet, and they were a little crazy when they thought that the strawberries were gone.
I’m afraid it won’t be available later.
"Quick, let's go downstairs and ask."
At this point, no one cared about sitting in the private room and went downstairs to ask in person.
There were many people surrounding the store employees at this time.
Their lips are about to be worn out from talking.
They kept repeating the same words.
"We have strawberries, and we provide them every day. It's just that it's inconvenient to transport them to the store. If you want to eat some, you can go to Lulin Village to buy them. You can buy more strawberries there."
Zhou Chong and his friends understood that the owner sold strawberries in the store to advertise the fruit and let people know about it.
Once everyone knows about the fruit called strawberry, let them go to Zhuangzi to buy it.
The truth is that their store in the inner city is a bit small, and the owner doesn't want to spend money to buy another store in the inner city, so he simply lets everyone know about this thing and tells everyone to go to the farm to buy it if they want to eat it.
Anyway, the place over there is big and the store is several times bigger than the one in the inner city, so it would be much more convenient for everyone to buy strawberries there.
Besides, the shops there are also big, so people can relax and eat there without being crowded in the inner city.
The owner also wants to promote Zhuangzi so that more people can know about it.
Then the owner can build a few more stores there.
If the owner builds a shop in Zhuangzi, the cost will be lower, which is much cheaper than buying a shop in the inner city.
"It's true. There's a shop selling strawberries in the village at the foot of the Lulin Academy."
"It's true. You can pick your own fruits in the farm with a basket. Once you're done, just weigh them and buy them."
"That's fine. Hurry up, let's go there in a carriage."
Many people came out of the store one after another and got on carriages to go to the farm.
Some people who lived nearby and did not take the carriage quickly asked someone to go back and drive the carriage to the village.
Shen Yueyao planted strawberries in many farms, and also planted some in Lulin Farm.
Shen Yueyao had already greeted the people in the store over at Zhuangzi and asked them to receive customers well.
There are also special people watching over the strawberry fields. Everyone can go into the fields and pick the strawberries. After picking them, they will be weighed and paid for.
Of course, many ladies, daughters and young masters of noble families would not go to the fields themselves, but would arrange for their maids or servants to go to the fields to pick the fruits.
Zhuangzi has someone specifically teaching them that they can pick the fruits themselves.
Everyone thought that the fruits they picked were big and good.
Everyone felt relieved when they saw several baskets full of strawberries.
When Lin Chi came back after delivering the goods and reported the situation to Shen Yueyao, Shen Yueyao was stunned.
She knew strawberries were popular, but she didn't expect them to be so popular.
I can only say that there are still too few fruits in this era.
However, in the technological age, people also like to eat strawberries.
"Fortunately, business is good. Strawberries are best eaten on the same day they are picked. They are no longer fresh the next day."
Everyone buys it on the same day, so there is no need to worry about whether the strawberries are fresh or not.
Anyway, it must be fresh if you eat it that day.
Manager Fan from Lulin Manor came specifically to report the situation to Shen Yueyao.
"Boss, there are more than ten carriages coming to our farm. They are all for picking strawberries. Everyone bought several baskets."
Shen Yueyao was very happy when she heard it.
"It's okay. We've grown a lot of strawberries, which is enough for now."
And strawberries will only grow again after they are picked.
Besides, after her space was upgraded, she also planted a lot of strawberries in the space.
It’s enough to eat for a while.
Then in summer, there are fruits such as watermelon and grapes, which are equally delicious.
Shen Yueyao seemed to have thought of something and said, "Manager Fan, please arrange for people to build a row of shops over at Lulin Manor. Start by building six shops and use them to sell fruit."
Of course, Fan Quan has also been leading people to build a grape workshop recently.
The previous workshop was used to make sausages, and the newly built grape workshop will be used to make wine.
Fan Quan said respectfully, "Yes!"
Shen Yueyao seemed to have thought of something, and called some people over and said, "Take some people to pick some strawberries, and go from house to house to take two kilograms back so that everyone can have a taste."
When everyone in the village heard this, they were immediately excited.
Can they eat something so expensive and delicious?
One catty costs one hundred coins, and two catties costs two hundred coins. The boss is so nice to everyone.
Everyone looked at Shen Yueyao with moved and excited eyes.
Shen Yueyao said: "As long as everyone works hard, I will not treat you unfairly."
"This is just the beginning. There will be more fruits later. We will also give you some watermelons and grapes to taste."
Shen Yueyao will also encourage everyone.
Since she was the boss, she was not stingy in giving everyone wages and things while doing business.
With everyone working hard and diligently, she earned a lot of money in the capital.
And when she accompanies Su Xueyi to take up her post in the local area, she will continue to manage the farm in the capital.
Shen Yueyao seemed to have thought of something and said, "It's time to teach everyone how to make fruit cake."
Fruit cake is also very delicious.
The cakes I made before didn’t have any fruits in them, but now that we have strawberries, we can put a layer of strawberries on top of the cake.
Of course the price will be more expensive.
There is a price for adding fruit.
But Shen Yueyao believed that since strawberries were so delicious, many people would order strawberry cakes.
Shen Yueyao thought about bringing some back home.
While Shen Yueyao was busy with things here, she also received news from her hometown.
The oil used for frying in the rapeseed fields over there is really very good.
