Gu Yanyue looked at Yuwen Ran with a mysterious expression, which made Yuwen Ran feel itchy. "Ayue, what is the method? Don't keep me in suspense."
"We can make all kinds of dishes with this crayfish. Maybe we can even develop breeding in the future and make it a secret to making a fortune." Gu Yanyue looked at Yu Wenran with pride.
Who knew that Yuwen Ran touched Gu Yanyue's head and said, "Ayue, I know you are worried about me and want to find a solution for me, but this weird thing...how can you eat it? Okay, stop messing around, be obedient, go back and rest, I will think of a solution."
As he spoke, Yuwen Ran began to frown again.
Gu Yanyue walked around to Yuwen Ran and said coquettishly, "Ah Ran, just believe me, I really can do it, it really can be eaten."
She looked at Yuwen Ran sincerely, hoping that he would consider her idea, but she didn't expect that Yuwen Ran simply ignored her.
"Yuwen Ran, you just don't believe me?"
Gu Yanyue felt a little unhappy. She was a Michelin chef, but she was actually being questioned!
"Ayue, it's not that I don't trust you, it's that I'm worried about you... Look at this crayfish, it looks so strange, what if there's something wrong?"
Gu Yanyue knew that Yuwen Ran was worried that this strange thing was poisonous and would harm others, so he had been unwilling to agree to her idea. But how could Gu Yanyue easily give up her plan for crayfish?
That's a crayfish!
"Ah Ran, how about this? You ask someone to prepare some crayfish first. I'll try it myself after I cook it. If it's okay, we can make a larger batch. How about that?" After a pause, Gu Yanyue blinked her big eyes and looked at Yu Wenran: "Ah Ran, don't you trust me?"
Yu Wenran has noticed the changes in Gu Yanyue over the past few days. Ever since Gu Yanyue chose to stand on his side and fight against the Prime Minister's Mansion together, he believed that Gu Yanyue was an extraordinary woman who could cure his anorexia. Maybe this time she could also turn decay into magic and save the day.
"I believe in you. If you want to try, I will support you." Yu Wenran had only one idea. If Gu Yanyue wanted to do it, he would be ready to clean up the mess for her. However, he believed that his Ah Yue had her own plans.
Yuwen Ran quickly ordered everyone to catch lobsters. As soon as this incident happened, it immediately caused an uproar.
…
"Your Majesty, the Prime Minister and the Emperor had an argument in the Imperial Garden." Liu Mei beside her hurried to report.
Gu Yanyue was confused as to why her father and Yu Wenran were arguing. Thinking about this, she went to the Imperial Garden.
It turned out that the prime minister brought several ministers to talk to Yuwen Ran, saying that Jiangnan was in chaos because of the lobster issue, and the emperor was making a fuss, wanting to catch lobsters to cook. It was better to blame Yuwen Ran than to talk. It seemed that his father was getting more and more outrageous.
"Father, I came up with the idea. It would be better if you don't make things difficult for His Majesty." Gu Yanyue walked out slowly and said.
Then Prime Minister Gu reluctantly saluted her and said with disdain: "Your Majesty, please stop messing around. How can your Majesty know how to cook?"
Prime Minister Gu was extremely dissatisfied with Gu Yanyue's bravado, and looked at her with disdain. Then, as if realizing something, he said, "Your Majesty, this crayfish issue has always been kept secret. How did the Empress know about it?"
He paused, then roared again: "Your Majesty, it is forbidden for the harem to interfere in government affairs!"
"I am willing, does the Prime Minister have any objection?" It was rare for Yuwen Ran to speak in such a cold tone, and his aura made Prime Minister Gu, a veteran in this world, a little scared.
"Don't worry, father. Tomorrow the crayfish will arrive, and His Majesty will hold a shrimp tasting event in the palace. I can invite you to come and watch." Gu Yanyue was a little arrogant. "Liu Mei, why don't you send the Prime Minister and the others out?"
On the second day, the shrimp tasting meeting in the palace was held as scheduled.
In full view of everyone, Gu Yanyue processed all the crayfish and made a spicy crayfish dish.
The lobster is cooked in an authentic red color, with a fresh and spicy taste, and is very delicious.
Gu Yanyue ate a crayfish in public. After a long time, no poisoning occurred. The imperial physician also came to check the lobster and proved that there was nothing poisonous in it, which means that the lobster was safe.
However, most people still couldn't accept this new thing with a strange appearance. Although Gu Yanyue tried her best to persuade everyone, no one tried it, which made Gu Yanyue a little disappointed.
"Ayue, let me try it. How do I make this?" Yuwen Ran asked.
Gu Yanyue taught Yuwen Ran how to peel lobsters. After eating one, Yuwen Ran immediately praised it, "Ayue, you are so good. This is the most delicious shrimp I have ever eaten!" Then he peeled another one.
Seeing that Yuwen Ran had eaten it, some ministers could not help themselves and tasted the lobster for the first time under Gu Yanyue's guidance.
"Your Majesty's cooking skills are amazing! I didn't know this so-called monster could actually be eaten this way. Now we can buy all the lobsters. This will not only solve the lobster problem in Jiangnan, but also provide the villagers with more jobs to make a living. It's a win-win situation. Your Majesty is very clever!"
"It's just that not many people can make this lobster."
"I know there is a restaurant that can do it." Gu Yanyue slowly said the name of her restaurant, and then the ministers also supported Gu Yanyue in making crayfish. Only Prime Minister Gu had a dark face and stared at Gu Yanyue.
The lobsters that Gu Yanyue ordered were soon delivered to the restaurant. Gu Yanyue personally taught Yu An how to cook. Yu An was very smart and quickly learned how to cook crayfish. Gu Yanyue also praised Yu An generously, which made Yu An somewhat shy.
However, the imagined booming business did not appear, as few customers were willing to try crayfish because they were unfamiliar with it.
Gu Yanyue was a little worried, "Liu Mei, why is there no one buying it?"
She remembered that in modern times, crayfish were very valuable and the shops that made good ones were in short supply. Why didn't this work in ancient times?
"My Lady, this thing is very strange. If I had never tasted it, I wouldn't dare to buy it."
"Oh." Gu Yanyue sighed. It seemed that he had to find a way to increase the popularity of lobsters, otherwise this business would not be able to continue.
"Liu Mei, let's go back first. We have been out for a long time." Gu Yanyue took Liu Mei and packed up to go back to the palace.
As they walked away, a woman came out from the back of the restaurant. It was Gu Yanrou. Looking at the restaurant, Gu Yanrou smiled and said, "Gu Yanyue, this time, let me see what you are going to do."
She called out to the palace maid beside her and whispered a few words in her ear, and then the palace maid left.
Afterwards, a triumphant smile appeared on Gu Yanrou's face.
