Chapter 18
The boy tasted a piece, his eyes lit up: "It really is a rare delicacy, where did it come from?"

"It was sent by a girl who said she wanted to cooperate with our restaurant, and she would give us two prescriptions like this every month." The shopkeeper was quite proud. The Juxian Building in the town was just a branch of the Juxian Building in the capital. Although the business of Juxian Tower in the capital is good, it has been unable to do so in Wangjiang Tower. If there is such a recipe, it will surpass Wangjiang Tower, and it will be just around the corner.

"Did you ask about that girl's background?" Although the boy in white felt that the plate of rabbit meat tasted good, he was still a little worried.

"It is said that it is a farmer in Mengjiazhuang. The woman's name is Meng Ruoqing. Her husband is a hunter. We reached an agreement. She will provide us with two recipes every month, and we will eat their prey." The shopkeeper reported truthfully.

The so-called young master nodded and asked, "Did she give you some recipes this time, did you ask the kitchen to try it out?"

"I'm already trying to make it, and it should have results soon." Before the shopkeeper came, he had already ordered the cooks in the kitchen to cook according to the recipes. Naturally, the chef who is doing the cooking is also the core cook in Juxian Building. After all, the recipes But very precious things.

"Well, you did a great job this time. If you can really make money and treasures, I will definitely give you a salary increase." The boy who ate grapes finished all the rabbit meat on the plate, and he leaned on the rocking chair leisurely. shaking.

The three great pleasures in life are food, wine, and beauties, and he has no shortage of wine and beauties, except that he can't find food everywhere, and now this one has been fulfilled.

"Thank you, young master." The shopkeeper nodded with a smile on his face, and left with the plate. Intermittent conversations came from the backyard. As for what he said, the shopkeeper didn't hear clearly.

On the other side, Meng Ruoqing moved briskly with Wei Mingxuan out of the town. Although she had expected it, she never thought that the shopkeeper of Juxian Building would be so happy. With this money, the family would not be stretched. The money for the medicine with my grandmother has also been settled.

"Miss, are you happy?" Wei Mingxuan looked at Meng Ruoqing's unstoppable upturned mouth, and couldn't help laughing too. His deep eyes were firmly fixed on Meng Ruoqing's body, and they were full of doting.

"Of course, you can see that we have earned so much money in the same town, and have reached long-term cooperation with medicine halls and restaurants. Our life will definitely get better and better. Wei Mingxuan, I am really happy today. We Buy some wine and go back, okay?" Meng Ruoqing pointed to the wine shop by the roadside, beaming with joy.

"Okay, it's all up to you." Wei Mingxuan nodded with a smile, as long as the lady is happy, even if it is the moon in the sky, he will take it off and give it to her.

Many years later, Wei Mingxuan looked at the moon above his head and complained endlessly. It was because Wei Mingxuan, who had regained his intelligence, realized that it was not easy to pick the moon, but that is all for later.

It was already afternoon when we returned to Mengjiazhuang. Mrs. Yang stood at the door and watched eagerly, feeling very uneasy all the time. It stands to reason that it only took an hour to go back and forth from Mengjiazhuang to the town. Why did they go there for almost a day? Haven't come back yet.

"Grandmother, don't worry, the second uncle and the second aunt will be back soon." Si Niu moved a stool with short legs and handed it to Yang Shi to sit down and wait.

"Can you not be worried? The second child has never been to the town by himself, and neither has Ruoqing. I don't know if the two of them will encounter any trouble." Yang looked worriedly at the small bridge at the entrance of the village, and sighed.

"You just love to worry. Ruoqing and the second child are both grown-ups, so it's possible that they can still be lost." Father Wei smoked a pipe, scolding Mrs. Yang, but kept looking at the entrance of the village, his mouth I said that, but Yang's worries don't need to be less.

"You are still talking about me, look at your eyes are almost glued to the camphor tree at the entrance of the village." Yang turned to look at her wife, couldn't help but burst out laughing, and the worries in her heart dissipated a lot .

Da Huzi, who was obviously much more mature than before, didn't go anywhere at this time, so he obediently stayed by Yang's side: "Grandmother, Second Aunt is amazing, she will be fine, you, why don't you hurry up?" After cooking some food, they must be hungry after rushing back from such a long distance.”

"You're right." Yang suddenly felt that Da Huzi's words were quite reasonable, she stood up and walked home, and before she crossed the threshold, she heard Meng Ruoqing's voice.

"Mother, father, why are you sitting at the door, don't you go in?" Meng Ruoqing walked around the fence of the neighbor's house, and saw that Wei's father and Yang were at the door, and couldn't help asking.

"I'm not worried about you. Why have you been away for so long? When you come back later, your father will go to the town to find you. Are the medicinal materials sold?" Seeing Meng Ruoqing and Wei Mingxuan coming back, Yang slapped her head and face. , but firmly held Wei Mingxuan and Meng Ruoqing.

After counting, she realized that the cloth bags that Wei Mingxuan took out this morning were all empty. She couldn't help being overjoyed, but fearing that it would be empty, she could only ask hesitantly.

"It's sold, father, mother, it's inconvenient to talk at the door, let's go inside and talk." Meng Ruoqing didn't want to say more, and entered the house with Yang Shi. As soon as the four of them entered the house, Wei Mingxuan had eyesight closed the door.

"Father, mother, I want to discuss something with you!" Meng Ruoqing said while supporting Yang Shi to sit down on the kang.

"If you have anything to say, just talk about it." Yang couldn't help being stunned for a moment, turned to look at the old man, saw the old man nodded, and said.

"Father, mother, today we bought herbs and earned three taels and 250 taels. This is silver. Here it is for you. This is the money from selling rabbits. It is a total of one or two to five hundred taels, and the 80 taels I got from selling recipes For the money that came, I thought about giving half to my mother, and I kept half as funds."

As she said that, she took out two contracts and handed them to Father Wei: "I have already signed Qi Yue with the Huichun Hall and Juxian Building in the town to provide them with medicinal materials and prey for a long time."

"This is what I think. We can't get rich on our own. If we are able, we will lead the villagers to develop together. Wei Mingxuan and I will take people who are willing to follow us to the mountains to collect medicine, and Wei Mingxuan will hunt. This month's income is deducted from the cost Besides, I will leave it to father and mother, how about you two?"

Father Wei took a puff of dry tobacco and looked at Meng Ruoqing through the smoke. The longer he spent with him, the more he felt that Meng Ruoqing was a sensible and reliable child: "It's good that you can think about the villagers, but you are a soft-spoken person in the village after all. I'm afraid they won't believe you."

"So, I can only ask Dad for help. I think Dad will come forward to discuss this matter with the village head. The village head is quite prestigious in the village, and everyone will believe it." Meng Ruoqing narrowed her eyes and looked at Father Wei.
