Remembering the Fourth Prince's instructions, he immediately reminded the people below.
Eunuch Hai thought about it and made some cold cucumber and coriander salad for the buyers to taste.
"Yes, it's delicious."
"Is this green vegetable coriander? It tastes pretty good."
"Excuse me, how do you cook this cilantro? Is it a cucumber salad?"
At this moment, Eunuch Hai admired the Fourth Prince from the bottom of his heart. The buy-one-get-one-free combination immediately attracted people.
"As for cilantro, it can be added to all kinds of dishes. It acts as a seasoning. You can go back and try adding it to soup."
Several of them were in charge of the kitchen, and they understood immediately and decided to go back and try coriander.
The news of the high-priced cucumbers spread quickly, and people came to watch the fun and taste the free cucumbers.
Whenever someone asked about the price of cucumbers, Eunuch Hai would refuse to sell them, but if someone offered a high price, he would still sell them. This was what Situ Xiu had instructed.
The three-day free tasting is to let people in Kyoto know about cucumbers and encourage those who can afford it to go to Shuhezhuang to buy them.
The cucumber yield in Bulma's world is about 15,000 kilograms per acre. It is impossible for Situ Xiu to sell it in retail. He has 200 acres of land and he would be exhausted if he sold it by kilogram.
.....
Shangdelai Restaurant.
One of the top ten restaurants in Kyoto, it serves fine wines such as Nv'erhong and delicious food. The service is good and the restaurant has a large number of customers every day, including locals from Kyoto and merchants from other cities.
Li Jiao, a logistics businessman in the Great Saint Dynasty, was called a merchant in ancient times, which means traveling merchants and sitting merchants. Those who walked around selling goods were called merchants, and those who lived and sold goods were called merchants.
Simply put, a businessman.
Li Jiao himself does business in cities all over the place. He is a freight forwarder who specializes in buying low and selling high. He will transport the good things from one city to other places to sell them. In modern times, he is a logistics businessman.
Of course, don’t think that being a businessman is easy. In ancient times, there were many robbers. Some merchants were robbed on the way, and either their families were destroyed or they went bankrupt.
Businessmen also have connections with each other. Li Jiao invited several good friends to dinner today, all of whom are businessmen doing big business.
"Sister He, I heard you made two hundred thousand taels of silver in two months. I'm so jealous."
"Well, I made a profit, but I also lost a Xiantian master. You don't know, on the way to transport the silk to Daluo, I encountered a group of villains and almost couldn't return."
"Hiss! It's so dangerous. I think we should stop making foreign goods and make domestic goods instead."
"You can't say that. Can domestic goods earn 100,000 taels a month?"
"Yeah, it's really hard to make money nowadays. Mr. Yan, how is your ceramic business?"
"Ahem, don't mention it. It's not easy to do."
There were seven people in the room, five women and two men. Everyone else found what the man called Old Yan said funny. He said that the ceramic business would not lose money no matter how bad it was. He was just afraid that they would come in and take a share of the pie.
"Come on, come on, eat some food. I heard there's a new dish today that's good. It seems to be called cucumber."
"Hey, what's in this cold meat? Is there any green vegetable like this?"
"That's cilantro. I heard it tastes good when mixed with meat."
"coriander?"
When they heard it was a new variety of vegetable, they all picked up some and tasted it. Immediately, everyone's face changed slightly and they looked at the cucumber in disbelief.
"It's delicious, so delicious, how can there be such delicious dishes."
"Although I like to eat meat, this cucumber tastes really good. It tastes great when served cold."
"Hmm, the cucumber still tastes juicy and retains its original flavor. It's really good."
"This cilantro is also delicious, absolutely amazing. When did Shangdelai have new dishes? I've never eaten it before."
After the meal, the seven people became more and more curious about cucumbers and coriander. They were no longer in the mood to chat and soon went home.
"Quick, go ask around, cucumbers and cilantro."
Li Jiao left the restaurant and immediately gave orders to her subordinates. As a businesswoman, she smelled a business opportunity.
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
In three days, everyone in the streets and alleys of Kyoto knew about the two new agricultural products. The most discussed topics were cucumbers and coriander.
"That cilantro is delicious. It's tasty and fragrant when added to noodle soup."
"Yeah, cilantro tastes great, and it goes well with everything."
"Cucumbers are good too. They taste sweet."
"It's so delicious, where can I buy it?"
"It's only available in restaurants, but it's incredibly expensive, and ordinary people can't afford it."
“Is there no one selling it in the vegetable market?”
"Others don't sell it. It's said that this vegetable was grown by the Fourth Prince and is being advertised in the vegetable market."
"The Fourth Prince?!"
The crowd was talking about it, and those who didn’t know gradually found out.
The residence of the Minister of Rites.
"The Fourth Prince is selling vegetables?!"
When Liu Rui heard the maid's words, she rolled her eyes a few times, narrowed them, and walked back and forth in the room.
"No, if I cause trouble, the Fourth Prince will definitely know it's me. Forget it, Daddy also wants me not to provoke the Fourth Prince, so let him go for now."
.......
Xiuhe Village.
In the hall, more than 40 people were whispering, all coming to buy cucumbers and coriander.
"Mr. Yan, you are here too."
"Sister He, you're here too."
"Sister Sun..."
Li Jiao greeted everyone with a smile, but she was thinking, "Oh my god!" People who sell ceramics come to buy vegetables, people who sell silk come to buy vegetables, people who sell jewelry also come to buy vegetables. These people are crazy.
"I'm here to join in the fun." Mr. Yan, a middle-aged man in his fifties.
"I heard that cucumbers are sold at one pound per two ounces, so I came to join in the fun." Sister He, a beautiful woman in her thirties.
