Zheng Yu couldn't say anything about Lin Yi's poor mouth, so he didn't talk about him at all, and walked forward with his back on his back.

Lin Yi smiled, and then quickly followed, holding Zheng Yu, and the two stopped at the door of a restaurant.

The name of the restaurant is Xingwanglou, and looking at the people going in and out, it is indeed very prosperous.

Lin Yi dragged people in and was about to go in, but Zheng Yu disagreed, "Master, this is a restaurant, and a meal in it costs a few taels of silver, we can't afford it, so we better not go."

Zheng Yu still had some panic on his face, because he was afraid that Lin Yi would not listen to him and insisted on going in.

Lin Yi turned around, "Don't worry, I didn't go to eat, I just asked them if they accept chestnuts, or not."

"Really?" Zheng Yu didn't quite believe it.

Lin Yike nodded sincerely, "Of course it's true. I know I have no money, and I don't want to be a prodigal. I won't spend money casually. Besides, if we have this money, let's buy it back and do it ourselves. Why? Let’s go to the restaurant to eat.”

Lin Yi also knows that eating in restaurants is very expensive, and for poor people like them, it is absolutely prohibitive.

And Zheng Yu was really relieved after hearing his words, so he agreed to go ask him with him.

The waiter in this restaurant is the kind of person who looks down on the poor. Seeing Lin Yi and the others, he greeted them warmly, "Please, two guests, what do you want to eat? The food in the small shop definitely tastes like ours in Linhe. The town is one of the best, and this cook was invited from Fucheng, so you are satisfied."

Lin Yi didn't follow in, but asked Xiaoer, "Brother Xiaoer, do you collect chestnuts here? I have some chestnuts here that I want to sell, do you accept them here?"

After Lin Yi finished speaking, he asked Zheng Yu to show Xiaoer the chestnuts in the basket.

Xiao Er was a little embarrassed when he heard that he was here to sell things, "Guest officer, we collect some wild things here, but this chestnut has never been collected, and our shopkeeper is not here at the moment, so I can't be the master. Should the two guest officers go to another house and ask?"

Once Lin Yi heard this, he didn't say anything anymore. It was the same when they went to other places to look. If it really didn't work, they would carry it back and cook it. Although it was troublesome, and the chestnuts were not light.

Lin Yi said to Xiao Er, "Thank you, Brother Xiao Er, then let's go to another house to see."

"You're welcome, both of you, go slowly."

After Xiao Er said a word, he went to busy with his own affairs, and Lin Yi took Zheng Yu away.

Walking back to the street, Zheng Yu asked Lin Yi, "Sir, should we continue to look for other restaurants now? Or set up a stall on the side of the road and sell them?"

Lin Yi looked around and said, "Ask another family. If it still doesn't work, then set up a stall. If no one wants it, then don't sell it."

"Okay," Zheng Yu nodded and followed Lin Yi.

There are several restaurants in this town, but they are of different sizes. Some of them are just inns pretending to be restaurants, but they are actually small restaurants.

The two continued to walk forward, and after a while, they saw a restaurant called Laixilou. The No Xingwang restaurant looked grand, but it was not too bad.

When he was about to enter the door, Lin Yi pulled Zheng Yu back a few steps, "Xiao Yu, do you know how to cook with chestnuts? What kind of food do you usually cook?"

Lin Yi also searched his memory carefully, but he didn't have any impression. He had never eaten dishes made of chestnuts, at most they were mixed with rice and cooked.

After Zheng Yu heard Lin Yi's words, he really looked at a loss, "Master, I don't know how to do it, can this chestnut still be used for cooking?"

Hey, Lin Yi was excited when he heard this, and felt that his day to make a fortune was coming.

Excitedly, he dragged Zheng Yu into Laixi Tower, and went directly to the shopkeeper who was dialing the abacus on the counter. Lin Yi called out, "Shopkeeper, do you collect chestnuts here? They are picked from the mountain."

The shopkeeper raised his eyes to look at Lin Yi, then lowered his head and continued to settle the accounts, "How much do you have, I can't afford any more, just two or three catties."

Hearing this, Lin Yi felt hopeful, so he hurriedly asked Zheng Yu to put down the back basket, and then he lay down on the counter to discuss with the shopkeeper, "Shopkeeper, so, let me give you an idea, and I guarantee that after you listen I just feel that I have too few chestnuts."

The shopkeeper became a little interested after hearing this, and finally raised his head, looked at Lin Yi, "Brother, tell me, what's your idea?"

Lin Yi smiled, "Shopkeeper, you definitely don't use chestnuts for cooking here, so let me tell you, it's nothing like chestnut roast chicken, stewed duck with chestnut black chicken soup, stewed mutton, etc. It's not a problem, shopkeeper, you Why don't you think about it."

It's been a few years since I came to Xilou. Although the shopkeeper doesn't cook by himself, he must know what dishes are served in the restaurant. As far as Lin Yi said, he has never heard of the stewed chicken soup with chestnuts. thing.

The shopkeeper looked at Lin Yi in a different way, "My little brother, can you talk about this in detail?"

Lin Yi wanted to talk about it, and he might get a lot of money if he said it, but he didn't dare, Zheng Yu was already suspicious of him.

Lin Yi said to the shopkeeper: "Shopkeeper, I just read about this matter in some miscellaneous books before, if you ask me to do it, I really don't know how to do it, so I will tell the shopkeeper a few names, shopkeeper The cooks here must be capable people, and this pondering can definitely be figured out."

The shopkeeper didn't expect that Lin Yi was still a scholar, so he immediately handed over his hand, "My eyes are clumsy, I didn't expect my brother to be a scholar, please don't blame me."

Lin Yi smiled, "The shopkeeper is being polite, I just underestimated a few books, so I can't be regarded as a scholar, shopkeeper, what do you think of what I said? If I collect chestnuts from now on, I will send them to you. Try not to let your here lack this stuff."

The shopkeeper said yes repeatedly, and took out a pen and paper, "Brother, come here, write it down for me, I want your chestnuts, and I will never treat you badly for the names of these dishes you wrote down for me." about you."

Lin Yi was naturally willing to take money if he had the money. He wrote down the names of several dishes to the shopkeeper.

Then the shopkeeper called someone to carry the chestnuts away, but didn't mention the weighing.

After finishing these, the shopkeeper asked Lin Yi, "Brother, there are a lot of chestnuts, I will give you the price of the name of the dish, please make a price!"

Lin Yi said: "Shopkeeper, this is also the first time for me to do this. I really don't know how much it will cost. You can just give it as you see it. It doesn't matter. We will come and go often in the future."

The shopkeeper laughed when he heard this, bent down and took out two silver ingots from the bottom, "These are enough."

One silver ingot is ten taels of silver, and two are 20 taels.

A bit beyond Lin Yi's surprise, he is naturally fine.

Lin Yi said to the shopkeeper, "Enough is enough, the shopkeeper's generosity, I will come to you after I collect the chestnuts."

Seeing that Lin Yi wasn't shy at all, the shopkeeper said boldly, "No problem, if you take the chestnuts, I'll take your chestnuts for a penny more than the market price."

It was another extra surprise, Lin Yi felt that he was lucky today.

I thanked the shopkeeper several times.

The shopkeeper talked to Lin Yi and felt that the more he talked, the more he liked it. He even wanted to stay Lin Yi for a meal, but Lin Yi refused. They sold a lot of things today.

Holding the heavy silver ingot out of the restaurant, Lin Yi was in a very happy mood. Only Zheng Yu was more and more suspicious. He had never read a book, so he didn't know what was in the book, but he I was thinking, are there any books that teach people how to cook?And why did Lin Yi read such a book?

Zheng Yu was in a complicated mood, but seeing Lin Yi's happy face, he didn't ask any questions. Today he saw with his own eyes that Lin Yi got 70 taels of silver so easily. He has seen the number, but he is not very happy.

Lin Yi, who was walking in front, was happy for a while and wanted to share his joy with Zheng Yu, but when he saw Zheng Yu's complex expression, his heart skipped a beat. Could it be that he has revealed his secret again?

But he obviously hid it on purpose just now!If all of this was discovered, Lin Yi would feel very helpless.

After thinking about it for a while, Lin Yi decided to pretend that he didn't see Zheng Yu's complicated face, smiled and said to him, "Xiao Yu, let's go buy a quilt first, otherwise we still don't have a cover tonight, and it won't be good if we catch a cold gone."

Zheng Yu was stunned for a moment, and then quickly came back to his senses, "Okay, then we want to go now, Ah took me to the shop in the town to buy it, I know where it is."

"Okay, then I'll go with you." Lin Yi pulled Zheng Yu's pannier from behind, and I squeezed with him in the crowd, because both of them had their own thoughts, so neither of them spoke, that's all There was silence all the way until they came to a shop, where Lin Yi experienced what it means to pluck cotton, which is purely handmade.
