Chapter 276: Sky-high Price Hot Pot Recipe

Gan Tian agreed with this statement very much. In wartime, talents like Gongsun Yue and Li Zhi might be needed, but in prosperous times, Huang Bo is more needed.

Moreover, Huang Bo is a sincere, diligent and humble person. He never takes advantage of his age to bully young people.

Everyone likes Huang Bo very much.

"The lord needs you right now, and the people of Tongmen Pass also need you. You can't leave casually."

Gongsun Yue sat at the table and said to Huang Bo: "Speaking of hot pot, there is another problem, that is, how to enable vegetable farmers to grow vegetables all year round?"

"Now the dishes in hot pot restaurants are mainly some foods that are easier to store. Those side dishes are saved in the past. Now there is still some time before spring plowing, I'm afraid there won't be enough vegetables."

Huang Bo pondered for a while: "I have thought about this problem, but the winter here is colder, not like the warm in the royal capital. Unless the vegetables are planted in the house, it will be difficult to grow them."

The method of planting vegetables in the house is not uncommon. Many noble families do this.

In this way, they can eat fresh vegetables all year round, but for ordinary people, this is absolutely impossible.

Ordinary people can't even live in a good thatched house, how can they use the house to grow vegetables.

"It is precisely because of the difficulties that we need you to come up with a solution."

Uncle Huang thought about the method of planting all day long, and his head was broken, but he couldn't think of any good solution. He

kept talking about vegetables all day long, and he was going crazy. It was pitiful to see him.

Gan Tian accidentally saw Uncle Huang worrying about this, and couldn't help sighing in his heart.

[In modern times, eating vegetables in winter is not a difficult thing, but in this era it is an extremely difficult thing. 】

【If greenhouses still exist in modern times, I can hardly think of a good solution except building ground dragons in the house and burning fires day and night to maintain the temperature. 】

However, this will waste a lot of manpower and material resources, and the price of the vegetables grown will be very high. It will definitely not be cheap.

Ordinary people can't afford to grow them, nor can they afford to eat them.

Hearing his daughter's voice, Gan Fanren felt that Huang Bo might not be able to solve this problem.

Since this problem could not be solved in the era of his daughter's previous life, then they probably don't have a better solution.

【Oh, if you ask me, there is no need to fight to the death. Off-season vegetables are not healthy. Isn't it good to eat some radishes and cabbage in winter? 】

【Those vegetables that are expensive to grow and also expensive should be left for the rich to eat, and they should be allowed to buy them at a high price. 】

【Anyway, those who can afford to build greenhouses will definitely not grow them themselves, so they still have to hire people to do it, which can also boost the economy. 】

Yes.

What my daughter said makes sense.

The reason they want to develop a method to grow vegetables in winter is not because they want the people to make money?

As long as the people can make money, anyone can grow it!

Gan Fanren felt that the fog in front of him suddenly cleared up.

They had been thinking in the wrong way before.

Gan Fanren said to Huang Bo: "Don't worry about saving money, as long as you can grow vegetables."

"If ordinary people can't grow them, let the rich people grow them. If they grow them, the money they earn will sooner or later flow into the pockets of ordinary people."

Gan Fanren gave Huang Bo money and let Huang Bo do it freely.

Huang Bo found Wen Yifan, and with the help of Wen Yifan, he built a ground dragon and burned it day and night. In just over 20 days, a lot of wild vegetables really grew.

Although these wild vegetables are still small, they are enough to prove that Huang Bo's method is right.

When someone eats hot pot and asks why there are such juicy vegetables, the employees in the shop will answer.

"This is a method developed by our newly appointed Minister of Agriculture. You should ask him for details."

If the common people want to eat fresh vegetables in freezing weather, it is almost impossible. Now seeing such juicy vegetables, those with quick minds think they have found a business opportunity. Those who

want to make a profit want to meet Uncle Huang.

But Uncle Huang stays in the greenhouse all day and never goes out. There are also many guards around him. It is extremely difficult for them to meet Uncle Huang, so they have to ask Gan Fanren.

Gan Fanren did not keep them in suspense.

"It is not easy to grow vegetables in such weather. If you want to know the recipe for growing vegetables, you have to show your sincerity."

We are all smart people, how can we not know what sincerity is.

To put it bluntly, sincerity is just money, isn't it?

Therefore, everyone who wanted the recipe had to pay 1,000 taels of silver and promise to hire poor people in the city to work, with a monthly salary of no less than 3 taels.

Gan Fanren would give 50 taels to Uncle Huang .

Gan Tian felt that her father was simply the real-life version of Huang Shiren and Zhou Paopi.

He earned 1,000 taels of silver and only gave 50 taels to Uncle Huang.

Uncle Huang didn't think it was too little at all, but was flattered.

"You have already given me a salary, I can't take this money, these are my job."

"Uncle Huang, you are wrong to think so, people who work hard should be rewarded."

In just a few days, more than 200 people found jobs. Uncle

Huang earned 1,000 taels of silver.

Uncle Huang felt dizzy every day, and it was very unreal.

He was just a farmer who was particularly good at farming, and he never dreamed that he would earn such a lot of money.

After hearing about Huang Bo's situation, many people had their own little thoughts, thinking all day about how to benefit the people of Sanguan.

Some businessmen saw that Gan Fanren handed over the method of growing vegetables so easily, and set their sights on hot pot.

There shouldn't be only one such delicious shop, it should be spread all over Sanguan.

The families of the merchants came to Hui Niang to inquire about the news.

Hui Niang did not hide it.

"As you can see, my husband and I will not stay here forever. We opened this shop just for fun, not because we really want to make money."

"If you sisters want to open this shop, I can give you the recipe for the bottom of the pot, but this recipe is not mine, but my sister-in-law's. I'm afraid I can't give it to you for free."

Hui Niang didn't tell her how much it would cost, but just asked her sister-in-law.

The women went back to discuss with the men, and the men began to think deeply.

"This recipe is very novel. If we buy it, we can pass it down. The more expensive it is, the better."

"I'm afraid the recipe is too cheap."

The women couldn't help but be curious: "Isn't cheap a good thing? Why are you so worried?"

"If the recipe is cheap, then everyone can afford it, and this shop will naturally not be novel. The only way to make money is to raise the price a little bit so that no one can afford it."

Each family was discussing how to set the price.

Almost all night long, they didn't sleep.

The next day, a woman came to the door and put 12,000 taels of silver into Hui Niang's hand
