Han Ruyue raised her eyebrows. She didn't expect that her daughter-in-law could design clothes and jewelry?
She smiled and pinched Kexin's face: "Girl, is there anything you don't know?"
Being dexterous and clever is just like this, and one also needs to be extremely intelligent.
Ke Xin grinned, tilted her head, and thought seriously, "Is there anything he can't do? Well... I haven't discovered it yet. But if we talk about being smart, farming is his forte, and everything else is just half-baked!"
Han Ruyue didn't believe this half-baked daughter-in-law. What half-baked person could kill someone without screaming? What half-baked person could grow vegetables and fruits in the most ordinary greenhouse?
The dim sum made by a mediocre person is better than that made by the famous chefs in the capital. Can a mediocre person make better than the imperial chef? If these are considered mediocre... She really couldn't believe what she looked like when she was a real idiot.
In the end, Han Ruyue did not let the owner of the jewelry store send the items to Liu's house. Instead, she was thinking about what the jewelry that Ke Xin designed specifically for her would look like.
What does it feel like to go shopping until you’re hungry for the whole morning?
She usually loves shopping and spending money, but compared with her mother-in-law today, she is nothing.
If she asked to buy something, her mother-in-law would call the purchasing staff. Whatever she liked would be brought home, no matter if it was clothes, leather, fabric, jewelry, or even food.
Ke Xin made a rough estimate and found that her mother-in-law seemed to have bought no less than five or six kinds of mountain products in such a short period of time, and she bought them all. This was thanks to the fact that the family did not run a mountain product shop, otherwise... this shop could only serve her mother-in-law herself.
At noon, they were having lunch at Liuji Restaurant. In the private room on the fifth floor, the shopkeeper Fang was so happy to see the two ladies coming that he smiled from ear to ear.
"Madam, Young Madam, what would you like to eat today?" The shopkeeper asked, then continued, "The restaurant has just received some new fish today, which is very fat and tender. We also have fresh donkey meat and goat meat!"
Han Ruyue didn't have much of an appetite for food. After all, vegetables were scarce in winter, so she only had meat dishes.
Seeing his wife's lack of interest, Shopkeeper Fang immediately said, "The pickled cabbage tastes good. It's from the young lady's family. Can you make a couple of dishes for me to try? It's very appetizing!"
"The goose stewed in an iron pot is also quite delicious. These are all invented by the young lady. Today, it is sold for the first time in the restaurant. It is now a must-order dish at every table."
Knowing that it was produced by his daughter-in-law's family, he had to taste it. The moment the shopkeeper finished speaking, Han Ruyue gave instructions: "Bring the two you mentioned, and take a look at the rest."
After the shopkeeper Fang finished serving carefully, he immediately went downstairs to make arrangements. It was a pity that he didn't know whether the sauerkraut could be accepted by everyone, but from what the shopkeeper said, it seemed that everyone didn't dislike it!
So after talking to my mother-in-law for a few words, I went out for a walk to see what was going on!
The lobby on the first floor was packed with guests. I wouldn't dare say there was one table full of guests, but there was one out of ten that wasn't. And the guests at this table had just arrived. Looking at the bustling business, this restaurant could be said to be doing a booming business. Compared with the restaurant diagonally opposite, there was a world of difference.
When Shopkeeper Fang saw the young lady coming down, he no longer sat and waited for her like he usually did. Instead, he took the initiative to step forward and respectfully asked, "Young lady, what's the matter?"
She nodded slightly: "Didn't my brother and the others bring you some vegetables today?"
She had given instructions when she went back yesterday, but she didn't see any green vegetables on the table today, which made her very confused!
"I did send it, but not much. I kept most of it and sent it to the provincial capital, where it can be sold at a good price. I sent the remaining few pounds to the county magistrate."
In the final analysis, it is sold to places with money, which is understandable.
"good."
After she finished speaking, she turned and was about to leave. Shopkeeper Fang followed behind her and whispered, "The leeks and celery look very fresh. The original price was fifty coins per catty, but I paid a hundred coins per catty for them. This batch of vegetables can be resold for double the price in the provincial capital."
"There are more than ten pounds of cucumbers, which is not much. I gave them ten taels of silver directly. Next time you deliver them, I'll charge you two hundred coins per pound. The pickled cabbage is twenty coins per pound. I've already asked Jiang Fu to go home and bring a thousand pounds. I'll send someone to deliver it to Liuji Restaurant in the provincial capital. It's sure to sell well this winter!"
I'll also find a good opportunity to defeat some restaurants. If I can expand and become the only restaurant in the state, that would be even better! Shopkeeper Fang thought happily.
Ke Xin listened to the price quote given by Shopkeeper Fang and raised her eyebrows slightly: "Aren't you afraid of losing money at the price you charge for the vegetables?"
It was obvious that the shopkeeper said these things to her just to please her. If it had happened in the past, why didn't he take the initiative to raise the price for her? Now his behavior was obvious at a glance.
"No, young lady. You may not make much money in our small town, but it will be different in the provincial capital. Everything is more expensive there, so you will definitely make money."
It's just a matter of making more or less profit. Besides, this is the price he gave. The state government will naturally raise the price. Who would do a business that loses money for no reason?
After hearing this, Ke Xin smiled at him, nodded and went upstairs. On the contrary, Shopkeeper Fang frowned, not knowing what the young lady's mysterious smile meant.
In the private room, when the big bones stewed with sauerkraut were served, Han Ruyue tasted it and found it was not as sour as she had imagined. Moreover, the sauerkraut soup was really delicious, and even the bones were not greasy at all.
"This dish is good. I think the pickled cabbage is made from white cabbage. It tastes crisper than white cabbage, and the texture is completely different!" After tasting it, he smiled and asked, "What on earth did you come up with in your little head to come up with this dish?"
This was not something she figured out, but something she learned from the director of the orphanage. As soon as winter came, the directors would let these orphans start working. They worked throughout the whole process while the director just watched them.
"The sauerkraut we created was actually made when we left some cabbage for too long. We discovered that the dish we made was quite good and didn't cause stomach upset, so that's how the sauerkraut was created."
Han Ruyue sighed. She had only heard her father say before that when they were young, they lived frugally and were reluctant to throw away rotten vegetable leaves. They would pick the rotten ones and eat the good parts. It seemed that farmers are still like this now.
After lunch, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law returned to the mansion. At that time, Liu Xu was training his son in the martial arts training ground with a sullen face, the veins on his forehead bulging. "You are so idle every day. Your mother just took your wife shopping. How can you ask why she is coming back and when she will be back?"
"Practice! You are not allowed to get up before you have done horse stance for an hour!"
Liu Xu was so angry that he had a headache. He was not like this when he was newly married. This guy was too clingy. Jiang Kexin only went out for half a day, and this guy kept nagging by his side for half a day. His ears were so calloused that they became numb.
"Dad... the poison in my body hasn't been eliminated yet. How dare you let your son suffer from the cold and fatigue? If I fall ill, I'll tell you how I'll deal with you!"
