Chapter 44: Tears Episode
After getting Bao'er as he wished, Lin Ruqian pretended to tease her and carried her around the store, avoiding the sight of the shopkeeper and the clerks.
And Lin Bao'er lived up to his expectations. When she left the counter, she quietly put the book "100 Desserts" on it.
[I don't know if Third Brother will find out that I put it on the counter. What if he is surprised and shows up? Third Brother can't be so stupid as to hand it over to the government, right?]
Lin Bao'er was a little distressed.
Lin Ruqian also looked at the counter as he said, and then his eyes suddenly lit up. He pretended to find it by accident and couldn't wait to take it in his hand.
"What is this?" He opened it with great anticipation, and then... froze in place.
The first page was torn.
The second page... was also torn.
The third and fourth pages were missing.
The thick booklet had turned into seven or eight thin pages.
Seeing this, Lin Baoer felt a little guilty.
In fact, she was afraid that something too advanced would arouse Lin Ruqian's suspicion, so she secretly let the system tear up all the things that didn't exist in this era, and the remaining things were basically things that could be made in this dynasty.
Lin Ruqian's mouth twitched, and he vaguely guessed what Lin Baoer was thinking. Helplessly, he could only look carefully at the last few pages.
The next second, his eyes suddenly widened, full of disbelief.
"This is..." His hand holding the book trembled a little, and then he was ecstatic.
He guessed that what Baoer gave him might be something new, but he didn't expect it to be such a treasure!
It detailed many novel styles of desserts, and the production process was detailed, and there were pictures. The exquisite and beautiful snacks in the pictures were extraordinary at first glance.
Just when Lin Baoer was worried about what her third brother would think when he saw the book, she saw Lin Ruqian stuffed the book into his arms at lightning speed, with a sneaky look, as if he was afraid that someone would snatch it away from him.
Lin Baoer not only did not dislike it, but was very satisfied. He
is worthy of being her third brother, and he is a teachable boy!
"Now I can definitely play around the entire Yanjing City!" Lin Ruqian's eyes were hot and full of confidence.
[Yeah! I think so too... No! Third brother, are you exaggerating too much! As for the whole Yanjing City... I feel it is still a bit difficult...】
It's not that she has no confidence in these desserts, but just like the rise of the sweet pastry shop, once these desserts become popular in Yanjing City, other counterfeits will inevitably emerge like bamboo shoots after rain.
In this way, it all depends on Lin Ruqian's ability, whether he can keep this overwhelming wealth.
"But for now, we have to deal with the sweet pastry shop first." Lin Ruqian frowned, shook Lin Baoer in his arms tiredly, and walked to the door in deep thought.
At this time, Qin Huyuan, who went to the sweet pastry shop to gather information, also came back and told everything he saw.
Perhaps seeing that Lin Ruqian was struggling to hold Lin Baoer, he took over again.
"So the other side is just copying the gourd, there is nothing new." Lin Ruqian sneered.
"So what should we do now?" The shopkeeper asked cautiously.
[In my opinion, it is better to lure the snake out of its hole! Since they are good at learning, why not let them learn! The desserts in "100 Desserts" are not so easy to learn! ]
[When the time comes, pick a dessert with very expensive raw materials and make a bet with the shopkeeper of the sweet pastry shop. We will bet the turnover in three to five days. Then we will make and sell it first. After it becomes popular, they will definitely covet this dessert, so we will deliberately reveal the secret recipe. 】
【Under the tight time schedule, they definitely don't have time to confirm whether the secret recipe is real. So, as long as they take advantage of this gap to deliberately increase the dosage, they will be hooked. 】
Lin Baoer was more and more satisfied as she thought about it. Although the plan has not yet taken shape, she feels that it is indeed feasible.
It's a pity that I can't speak now, and I can't pass on the message to my third brother.
Lin Baoer sighed with a wry smile.
Lin Ruqian's heart moved slightly after hearing this.
In this way, not only will they lose, but they will even suffer losses due to the high cost. At the same time, the reputation of the Tangsu Shop will also be spread. It can be said to kill two birds with one stone!
"Gu~"
Qin Huyuan moved his stiff right hand, thinking that he was hallucinating, and lowered his head to listen closer.
"Gu~"
He was stunned, with a strange expression. So the young lady is...hungry?
"Master..." He tried to call Lin Ruqian, "The young lady seems hungry."
Since the beginning, the joy in Lin Ruqian's eyes has never faded. He tore off a piece of paper and started writing on it without stopping. Hearing this, he just responded vaguely, "Guardian Qin, please buy some milk for Baoer. I am a little busy now."
When they came out, they thought they would only be delayed for a while, so they did not bring anything that Lin Baoer could eat.
Looking at Lin Baoer who was looking at him eagerly, Guardian Qin's face froze, but he softened in the end.
"Boss, do you know where to buy fresh milk?"
"It's in the restaurant in front!"
"Okay, please look after the young master, I'll be back soon."
After arriving at the restaurant, Qin Huyuan stood at the door and hesitated. After preparing himself mentally for a while, he pulled the waiter at the door and said, "Excuse me, do you sell fresh milk here?"
The waiter was a little stunned. After seeing the baby in his arms, he smiled knowingly and said, "Sir, you want fresh milk for your baby, right?"
Qin Huyuan nodded and said, "Is there any?"
"Yes, but it's not a valuable thing, so we don't sell it much. If you want, I can give you some!"
"Thank you." Qin Huyuan was overjoyed.
After the waiter left, Guardian Qin carried Lin Baoer to the side of the restaurant to prevent them from blocking passersby.
"Miss, bear with it for a while, you will have milk soon."
[This brother is really nice.]
Lin Baoer was touched.
"This young man, are you going to find milk for your little baby?" At this time, a voice suddenly came from behind the two of them, and Guardian Qin was so frightened that he almost drew his knife.
He looked at her with suspicion, and found that the person was a young woman in coarse cloth.
Seeing that he was not dressed like an ordinary citizen, the woman's eyes were a little timid, "I, I didn't mean to disturb you, young master, because I just gave birth to a child, and I saw that the baby must be very hungry. I also saw that you just asked the store for milk, so I came here bravely."
"Milk is always inferior to breast milk. Children who grow up drinking milk are prone to being weak and sick. If you can drink breast milk, you should try to drink breast milk. I saw that you were dressed extraordinary, and there should be a wet nurse in the mansion, but you appeared here alone. I think you encountered an accident, so you are like this."
"If you don't mind, I have enough milk and can help a little..."
