Chapter 679 Buying Food
Su Ruoyun could imagine how happy everyone was.
When we were in Liuhe Village, everyone was very excited when they learned that they could earn 600 coins a month by working in the workshop.
At that time, everyone in the village was very grateful to Aunt San.
The village was very lively at that time, and walking on the streets was very relaxing.
Everyone in the village knows each other, and when they meet, they will greet each other and talk.
Su Ruoyun herself likes this kind of relaxing atmosphere.
She also wanted to take the time to write down the detailed steps of making the bellows on paper.
"Just be happy. Luoshi Village will be more lively in the future."
"By the way, is everything okay at the royal court?"
Gu Lenghan said softly: "Don't worry, nothing will happen, everything has been arranged."
Although Gu Lenghan accompanies Su Ruoyun here every day, he will handle all the political matters that need to be handled.
And his subordinates would also deliver important information in a timely manner.
So although Gu Lenghan is in Luoshi Village, he still controls the entire Gulin Royal Court.
So there's nothing to worry about.
The two of them were busy for a while before going to bed.
The next morning, everyone in Luoshi Village got up early, had breakfast, and gathered under a big tree at the entrance of the village to wait.
Waiting for the village chief to take them to work.
Ma and Liu, along with the other six cooks, began to prepare lunch.
They built a makeshift stove out of wood and placed a large pot on it.
I also borrowed some bowls, chopsticks, spoons and other utensils from various houses to make it easier to serve food to everyone.
Liu asked, "Miss Su, will you arrange for someone to deliver the food? Don't we need to prepare it ourselves?"
Ma said, "That's for sure. Miss Su arranged for someone to drive a carriage to buy things early in the morning. Miss Su is very kind-hearted, so the things she bought must be good things."
“And there will definitely be enough.”
"Enough for everyone."
Lin Shan and the other six people were very cautious and didn't dare to speak carelessly.
Not everyone is willing to help with cooking.
There are only eight of them in the whole village who cook.
The village chief has instructed them to work harder and not talk nonsense.
Yes, they are also afraid of saying something wrong.
They were so excited that they could earn ten cents a day and have a full meal at noon.
Some people were so excited that they didn't get enough rest last night.
My mind is full of ancient coins.
They are still very excited about earning ten ancient coins a day.
Luolin City, the nearest city to Luoshi Village
Su Yizhen took the list of ingredients given by his master and started buying ingredients.
Su Er said from the side: "Master, do you want us to buy so much rice?"
Su Yida said: "Well, this is what the master wrote, we just need to follow it."
Su Ruoyun wrote one thousand kilograms of rice on the list.
There are also 500 kilograms of fine flour, as well as red beans, millet, glutinous rice and other ingredients.
Su Yi is more calm and steady, while Su Er is more lively.
Su Mei and others who Su Ruoyun had brought with her stayed in the Gulin Royal Court to help look after the store and prepare for the barbecue restaurant.
With them in charge of the Gulin Royal Court, it would be more convenient for Su Ruoyun to come out.
Su Er said, "The prices of ingredients here are very different from those in the Great Yan Dynasty."
"In the Great Yan Dynasty, grain was cheap, but meat was expensive."
"But here, meat is very cheap, and grain is more expensive."
Su Yida said: "It's a different place. Let's go to the grain store first."
When the owner of the grain store saw Su Yi and Su Er enter and saw a low-key and luxurious carriage parked outside, he naturally did not dare to neglect Su Yi and Su Er.
Moreover, when the shopkeeper looked at Su Yi and Su Er, he felt that they looked noble, perhaps aristocrats.
"I wonder what kind of food the two gentlemen would like to buy?"
Su Yi asked directly: "How much is the price of rice here?"
"Tell us a fair price and we'll buy more."
Even if their master gave them a lot of silver, they learned to bargain.
The shopkeeper looked at Su Yi and Su Er carefully, thought for a moment, and finally gave a fair price: "This rice is twenty-three coins per pound."
"What?"
Su Er was completely shocked.
In the Great Yan Dynasty, rice cost a few cents per pound.
Especially in Hezhou, rice costs six cents per pound.
It’s so expensive here.
It has increased several times.
“Is rice so expensive?”
This is almost the same as the price of meat in the Dayan Dynasty.
They had never bought rice in the royal capital. Most of what they ate was food that their master got from the mountains and forests, or flour food that they brought from the Dayan Dynasty.
Then eat rice noodles.
On weekdays, the emperor would arrange for people to deliver food to the master.
So I really didn’t go to the grocery store to buy food.
Who knew it would be this price.
