MTL - I Became the Prime Minister’s Adored Wife after Transmigrating-Chapter 292 have something to say
Chapter 292 Talking about things
Hongxing Restaurant.
Qin Minghong was flipping through this spring's account book. When he heard that Mr. Ji invited him to come over for a talk, his pair of sparkling peach blossom eyes narrowed slightly, and a hazy mist appeared in his eyes.
"Do you plan to go to Young Master's house?" You Er asked softly, "If you don't want to go, then I will find a reason to prevaricate you?"
"No need." Qin Minghong raised his lips silently, thoughtfully, "It's just a matter of time to see what kind of medicine he sells in this gourd."
After all, he and Ji Tingan are old acquaintances!
Half an hour later, Qin Minghong had just stepped into the living room when he saw Shen Yao and Ji Zhao sitting on the right, "This is it?"
"Brother Qin, long time no see!" Ji Tingan greeted him with a hearty smile.
Qin Minghong shook the folding fan in his hand, silently stepped back two steps, and distanced himself from him.
"Let's talk about things, don't pretend that we know each other well."
Ji Tingan has long been used to his indifferent attitude.
He immediately ordered to the servant behind him, "Zhubai, hurry up, hurry up and make a pot of good Biluochun!"
"I've been away for so many years, I don't know if Brother Qin's taste has changed?"
Witnessing this scene, Ji Zhao was thoughtful.
So Master Ji and Brother Qin are old acquaintances?
"Get down to business." Qin Minghong raised his eyelids and glanced at him, his tone was heavy and emotionless.
Ji Tingan felt ashamed, touched his nose embarrassingly, and then said slowly, "Brother Qin, to be honest, I have something I want to ask you for help."
After two quarters of an hour, Qin Minghong understood what he meant, and narrowed his eyes suspiciously, "You want me to buy immature grain at a high price?"
"Yes." Ji Tingan, who felt more and more guilty, didn't even dare to look Qin Minghong in the eyes anymore, "Once the locust plague passes through the border, the consequences will be unimaginable... Now Dingyuan County has the ability to purchase such a large amount of grain, I am afraid that only Qin Minghong Brother you..."
"Although that's the case, why should I help you?" Qin Minghong raised his eyebrows and glanced at him, with undisguised sarcasm in his seemingly calm eyes.
"Brother Qin, are you still angry about what happened before?" Ji Tingan anxiously explained, "It really happened for a reason..."
"No matter what reasons or excuses Mr. Ji has, it is wrong to directly rush into other people's boxes and conspire against them." Qin Minghong gave him a cold look.
"Huh?" Listening to the conversation between the two, Ji Zhao's eyes widened in surprise, "Brother Qin, Master Ji, you...you?"
Unexpectedly, the folk customs of Dajing are so open!
Qin Minghong immediately folded up the folding fan in his hand, "A Tao, do you read too many books?"
"Oh…"
For some reason, the relationship between them is not what she imagined, and Ji Zhao is actually a little disappointed?
"There are a total of ten villages around Dingyuan County, among which there are at least nearly a thousand acres of good crops." Qin Minghong said in a deep voice, "Not to mention that most of the crops in the fields are immature, even if we buy these crops now , To me, it is a deal that is guaranteed to lose but not to make a profit."
"Master Ji, I'm a businessman, so why would I engage in such a business that guarantees no profit?"
"This…"
Ji Tingan, who was at a loss for words for a while, had no choice but to look at Ji Zhao's face, "Ahem, Ji Atao, you have also seen that it is impossible to buy crops in advance."
"A Tao, is this your idea?" Qin Minghong was a little surprised, looking at Ji Zhao with strong puzzlement in his eyes.
"Brother Qin, I have a way to make you a steady profit."
Ji Zhao smiled, with firm and confident eyes.
Qin Minghong's curiosity was instantly aroused, "Would you like to hear more about it?"
"As Brother Qin said, the crops in the fields around our Dingyuan County are not yet fully mature, and even because of the drought for too long, this year's production will definitely decrease compared to previous years."
"However, Shen Yao and I have already investigated. Most of the villagers around Dingyuan County grow spring wheat and sugar cane. However, because of the special terrain and soil of our Dingyuan County, most of the people's homes grow wheat and sugar cane. Or wheat."
"Semi-cooked wheat can also be used to make craft beer."
"Beer?" Qin Minghong became even more confused, "What kind of wine is that?"
"Beer is an alcoholic beverage that uses wheat malt as the main raw material and is processed through a series of processes. The alcohol content is much lower than that of liquor. However, beer tastes very good, and most importantly, beer can also be eaten. For example, beer duck, beer beef, etc." Ji Zhao explained with a smile.
"it is good."
Ji Zhao got Qin Minghong to agree to the plan to buy grain without any effort.
Ji Tingan suddenly felt a little wronged.
"It's getting late, why don't we have lunch together?" Ji Tingan invited with a smile.
"No need." Qin Minghong refused expressionlessly.
"Ahem," Ji Zhao pretended to cough twice, and then winked at Shen Yao.
Shen Yao instantly understood what his daughter-in-law meant, and quickly said, "Since Mr. Ji kindly invites you, then we won't bother you."
"Master Ji, can I borrow your kitchen?" Ji Zhao said with a cute smile, "I want to cook two dishes myself."
"Of course!" Ji Tingan's eyes lit up instantly, "I have heard that your cooking skills are not ordinary, but since I came to Dingyuan County, I have been busy with official duties, so I don't have time to go to Chunfeng Restaurant to taste your cooking skills. Today This one is really lucky."
"Zhubai, quickly take Mrs. Shen to the kitchen."
When they heard the name Mrs. Shen, Shen Yao and Ji Zhao looked at each other tacitly, and they both saw strong affection from the bottom of each other's eyes.
"Eh? Brother Qin, didn't you just say you were going to leave?" Ji Tingan glanced at Qin Minghong, who was sitting on the chair without moving a bit, with a dazed expression.
"Maybe I haven't tasted A Tao's craftsmanship for a long time." Qin Minghong squinted at him, and said in a calm tone, "Why, you don't welcome it?"
"How could it be! Brother Qin can stay, I am naturally elated!" Ji Tingan quickly said with a smile.
For some reason, Shen Yao always felt that the conversation between the two was a little subtle.
When Ji Zhao walked into the kitchen of the county government office, his eyes were in a trance for a moment.
When Ma Fing was the county magistrate before, she also visited the back kitchen of the county government.
But right now—
There are only a handful of ingredients under the shelf;
"Mrs. Shen, if you need anything, just tell me, and I will buy it right away?" Zhu Bai scratched his head and said guiltily, "It's because our lord was too frugal, he felt that the cost of the county government's kitchen was a bit extravagant So many people have been laid off. But the younger ones have heard the saying that a clever woman can’t cook without rice. So you can just mention any ingredients you need, and the younger ones will buy them immediately?"
