Chapter 16: Can steamed buns be made in a workshop?
After Chen Jinyue introduced one kind, he sent out another.
Anyway, as long as the client is in the exchange, the destination she sends him to must be his world.
After the introduction, the items were delivered.
"You go back first. Come back in ten minutes and I'll help you collect the burning stones."
"How long is ten minutes?"
This time Jiang Qian'an took the opportunity to ask.
Chen Jinyue realized that he had accidentally used a modern word, which he didn't understand, so he changed the concept of time and said, "A quarter of an hour."
Jiang Qian'an nodded, said okay, then turned and walked out.
Chen Jinyue looked at his back, his eyes moving slightly.
She thought he would ask when the goods were delivered, or how she delivered them.
…
The two warehouses are close to each other, less than ten minutes' walk away.
Chen Jinyue put the two boxes of antiques into the courtyard space, preparing to go back and study them slowly, then locked the warehouse and left.
The street lights on both sides of the street are on, and the small vendors on the pedestrian street are also busy with business.
Chen Jinyue saw that there were not many people at the barbecue stall, so he thought for a while and ordered some barbecue. He also bought fried chicken fillet and other things at the stall next door, and took two cans of Coke, one iced and one at room temperature.
I was already more than ten minutes late when I arrived at the warehouse, so as soon as I walked in, Jiang Qian followed me in.
"Sorry, I bought some food on the way and was delayed for a while. Do you want to eat together?" She raised the things in her hand.
"……What?"
Jiang Qian'an had just gone out and pushed the door open at a quarter of an hour.
Only to find out that he hadn't come in at all.
He finally saw for the first time the shop that the soldiers had talked about, which was drafty and empty.
After trying several more times, just when the soldiers began to get nervous and thought they would never be able to get in, they finally got in.
Of course, he had doubts about the magical and strange nature of this shop.
Just like just now, when the girl introduced instant noodles to him, he noticed the clue.
It is hard not to notice that the mountains of refined rice disappeared out of thin air.
But he was only shocked for a moment, then he suppressed his curiosity and didn't ask for the news.
He just needs supplies.
As for how he got it, it's not so much that he doesn't care, but rather that he doesn't dare to ask...
Now looking at the girl's attitude, she was not on guard against him, but was willing to take the initiative to chat with him. He nodded decisively, "Then I'd better obey your command."
Chen Jinyue opened the folding table in the warehouse, moved two stools, sat down and put his things away, then opened a can of room-temperature Coke for him.
Jiang Qianan sat opposite her, looking at the things on the table, with curiosity and confusion.
"This is called barbecue here. As the name suggests, it is grilled over charcoal..."
Chen Jinyue introduced it to him patiently.
Afraid that he would be worried, I picked up a string and started playing first.
Jiang Qian'an was dressed in ancient costume, and his sitting posture and manners were very elegant, but when he smelled the aroma of barbecue and saw how deliciously the other person was eating, he couldn't help swallowing his saliva.
He followed her example, picked up the skewer, took a bite, and the spicy taste made him cough.
Chen Jinyue quickly handed the Coke to him.
Coke and barbecue are a perfect match and quickly captured the taste buds of ancient princes.
"What kind of water is this?"
He looked at the jar in his hand with surprise.
Chen Jinyue's smile widened. "This is called Coke, and it's very popular here. And the steamed buns and dumplings I gave you today are all made in a factory. I own two food processing plants."
Although they are old and have been discontinued, it does not prevent her from reviving them.
Doing business with the ancients seems to have a lot of room for making money.
"Steamed buns and steamed buns can be made in a workshop?" Jiang Qian'an already knew the meaning of a factory, and at this moment he just found it incredible.
Chen Jinyue nodded. "Of course. It's fast and efficient. You can get as much as you want later."
Jiang Qi'an's face was filled with joy, but he soon became thoughtful. "It's a luxury to have enough food at the border these days. This kind of simple labor can be left to the people..."
Chen Jinyue felt disappointed.
It was a mistake. She didn't consider this aspect, and the samples she prepared were not appreciated.
No wonder he looked happy before, but didn't intend to ask more questions.
"But you said it's fast, how fast is it? Can you produce the quantity for tens of thousands of people in two days?" Jiang Qian'an seemed to have thought of something and changed the subject.
Chen Jinyue was filled with joy and asked, "We want to fight?"
Jiang Qianan nodded.
General Xiao said that he had an advantage in this battle and he was looking forward to it.
As long as we win, my father should change his opinion of the Xiao family army, right?
He also took this opportunity to report the true situation at the border to his father...
"Two days is going to be difficult." After all, the factory wasn't up and running yet. "But if you're going to be on the march, I recommend a different kind of dry rations. It's filling and easy to carry."
"Which one?"
"Wait a minute, I'll go out and buy you a sample."
“…”
Chen Jinyue went out for a while and came back soon, bringing him ten packs of compressed biscuits. She opened one pack and handed it to him to try.
Jiang Qianan took it under her expectant eyes and took a bite.
It's crispy, fragrant and a little sweet.
I just feel choked.
He took a sip of Coke expertly.
After finishing a whole compressed biscuit, he found himself only about 70% full. Staring at the remaining biscuits, his eyes lit up. "This is it! It's enough for 50,000 people. Can you prepare it, girl?"
Chen Jinyue smiled and said, "No problem."
Jiang Qian'an felt a little embarrassed by the other party's straightforwardness. "Next time, will you only want exquisite items and not gold or silver?"
Chen Jinyue nodded. "Besides those, can you help me find the same kind of wood that you dug out from the ashes last time?"
She was very curious about what function the entire courtyard would have.
The deal was finalized over a meal, and Chen Jinyue asked him to come and pick up the goods tomorrow night.
Stop by to pick up the second batch of coal.
While helping him deliver the coal, Chen Jinyue suddenly remembered, "Burning coal produces carbon monoxide. You need to open the windows for ventilation, otherwise you will get poisoned. You know that, right?"
The prince was puzzled, "???"
"...When burning rocks, open the windows for ventilation. Remember not to close the doors and windows tightly."
"good."
…
Along with a large amount of burning stones being sent out from the shop, Jiang Qian'an finally came out.
The soldiers who had been waiting at the door saw this and hurried over to greet him, "Your Highness! You're finally out! What happened just now? Can you still buy things from that girl later?"
They have witnessed the great power of this shop.
It would be a shame if I can’t enter in the future.
Your Highness is right, leaving the city would be a meaningless sacrifice.
With this mobile granary and the reasonable and cheap price, why do they have to break out of the city?
Once the barbarian army is defeated, food and fodder will still be delivered safely!
Jiang Qi'an smiled and nodded, "Yes."
The soldiers were immediately excited, and if they hadn't considered the occasion, they would have cheered.
Xiao Chengyu noticed what was in his hand and asked, "What is this?"
Jiang Qi'an was about to tell him this, but when he heard the question, he opened a bag and handed it to him, "Try it."
Xiao Chengyu took it in a daze, broke off a piece and stuffed it into his mouth.
The taste is good, but a little dry.
Seeing this, Jiang Qianan took out the unfinished Coke he had brought out and said, "This is what I've drunk before. If you don't mind..."
Xiao Chengyu needed water, so he took it and took a sip. After frowning briefly, he slowly relaxed and looked at him expectantly.
Jiang Qi'an, "..."
