Chapter 26 Backer He took the initiative to come over
Jiang Yueyao quickly came out of her infatuated state and turned into an angry bird.
A handsome guy is not as important as small money!
Chu Wuxun smiled slightly.
"In fact, I bought Zuixianlou because I didn't want the owner of Zuixianlou to be implicated by me, and I also wanted to find a job for the brothers who retired from the army."
After hearing what Chu Wuxun said, Xie Yanqing and Jiang Yuehua couldn't help but change color slightly.
Although the Battle of Beiliang was a great victory, this victory was also achieved with the lives and blood of the soldiers. I don't know how many soldiers were buried on the battlefield, and many were disabled.
Although the imperial court provided relief, the wounded soldiers still encountered many problems.
King Jing obviously wanted to help those soldiers.
[Hey, this handsome guy is pretty nice]
[So you bought the restaurant to do charity... but you can't steal my business! ]
[Not to mention how much money a restaurant can make and how many people it can hire...]
[Alas, such a handsome guy, but his brain is not very good]
[However, since he is doing a good deed, I will not bother with him. But I am afraid I will have to find a new restaurant to rent... Ahhh, where can I get such a good deal nowadays?]
[Thinking about it this way, I still think you are ugly, hum! ]
Jiang Yueyao shook her head, and the swing on her head swayed with her movements.
Chu Wuxun looked over subconsciously. The little girl was wearing a plum blossom hairpin on her head. The stamens were made of pearls, the petals were made of rubies, and there were golden tassels underneath. It looked very delicate.
He couldn't help but think of the little girl wrapped in the big red awning that night.
"It's just that... after I bought the restaurant, I found that I'm not good at running it. I was just wondering who to find to run it, and then I heard that Young Marquis Xie was interested in buying Zuixianlou... If Young Marquis Xie and the two Miss Jiang don't mind, how about we cooperate?"
cooperate?
Jiang Yueyao and the other two had not expected this turn of events.
"That's right. I will pay for the cooperation with you guys. If anyone wants to take over this restaurant, I will solve the problem myself... I only have one request. The restaurant will recruit soldiers and their families."
【Ahhhh, handsome brother, you are so nice! 】
[I was originally worried about what kind of backer I should find to make people jealous after launching my cooking, but a backer actually showed up! ]
[King Jing, from now on you will be my God! ]
[Sister, pig's trotter, why are you still hesitating? Hurry up and agree! ]
Hearing the screams beside them, the three people in the room had different expressions.
Chu Wuxian was the calmest, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised, showing that he was in a very good mood.
Xie Yanqing had a strange expression on her face: ... Fortunately, King Jing couldn't hear what my aunt was thinking.
Jiang Yuehua: ...Although Jiang Yuehua didn't know the term "repeated jump", she already fully understood the power of this term.
Ugly guy, handsome guy, all the bad things were said by Yaoyao.
The key is... shouldn't my God be myself?!
Although they had different ideas, the cooperation went very smoothly.
Even at Jiang Yueyao's suggestion, everyone signed an agreement together.
Chu Wuxun provided the restaurant, the Xie family contributed part of the money, and Jiang Yueyao contributed money and also provided the killer dish of cooking.
After the agreement was signed, Jiang Yueyao carefully put the agreement into her own small pocket and patted it happily.
Now, the restaurant has been taken over and a backer has been found... Most importantly, the small amount of money has not been spent yet!
【The next focus is cooking! 】
[If you want to do your job well, you must first sharpen your tools. You have to make an iron pot first. It would be even better if you can make a stainless steel pot.]
[The quality of ironware at that time was not good enough to make an iron pot. Where could I find a suitable craftsman? ]
[Oh, and there’s technology… I think people still use charcoal to smelt iron now, but the temperature of charcoal is not enough… Coal won’t work either, as it will affect the hardness of the iron… I remember seeing somewhere that coke can raise the temperature even higher and has a cleaner composition.]
[How do you make coke? I think you heat it to 1000 degrees in an airtight container?]
[Wuwuwu, what is this... This is what it means to regret not having learned enough when you need it! ]
Jiang Yueyao was scratching her head in worry and decided to ask her sister and Zhu Tier for help first. After all, they were all descendants of military generals and should have had dealings with blacksmiths before.
When the time comes, I can talk to the blacksmith and maybe I can figure it out.
However……
Chu Wuxun handed the agreement he had just signed to Xue Yi who was behind him. As for Xue Lang... he dug three feet underground for a whole night and his two arms were completely disabled. At this moment, he was still groaning in Prince Jing's mansion.
Originally, Chu Wuxun wanted to leave, but... after hearing Jiang Yueyao's inner voice, Chu Wuxun suddenly stopped.
Iron smelting?
Steelmaking?!
Chu Wuhuang knew too well the significance of steel in war. Good weapons were life-saving on the battlefield.
But now... Jiang Yueyao actually said that she could smelt iron and steel? !
Although he might not be sure of what she said, but thinking of Jiang Yueyao's previous thoughts, Chu Wuxun inexplicably wanted to know more.
"I will have to trouble you guys to re-arrange the restaurant. If there is anything that my Jingwang Mansion can do, please let me know... Whether you need people or money, my Jingwang Mansion will support you."
"By the way, didn't Miss Jiang Liu say before that she wanted to cook something? What tools do you need?"
Jiang Yueyao's eyes lit up instantly.
[Yes, how could I forget! The handsome man is the prince, and the craftsmen he has must be the most skilled.]
[If anyone can forge steel in this era, it must be the royal craftsmen.]
【and……】
Jiang Yueyao blinked and showed a very innocent smile.
"Thank you so much, King Jing. I want to make a few iron pots. Is that convenient?"
"Of course it's convenient. I know a few blacksmiths with good skills."
then……
That afternoon, Jiang Yueyao and King Jing Chu Wuxun appeared in a royal foundry.
Jiang Yueyao was just a little uncomfortable at first, but soon calmed down.
[I've even been to the Forbidden City, so why am I afraid of this place! ]
[I am already full of motivation! 】
Jiang Yueyao soon gathered with a few blacksmiths and started whispering.
These blacksmiths originally thought it was strange that His Royal Highness King Jing brought a little girl here, but... gradually, their expressions changed, and then...
Lots of things were brought in and then the work started in full swing.
Jiang Yueyao took a few steps back, a little further away from the burning sensation, but she felt a little strange in her heart.
She did not choose to directly "produce" the iron pot from the system mall, not only because she did not want Jiang Yuehua and Xie Yanqing to feel strange, but also probably... because of this scene?
I don't know if her choice was right.
But anyway... Jiang Yueyao feels very good now!
