The only mistress of the Marquis's mansion in Yongzhou is the prince, and the others are all in the capital, so when Nanny Lian comes, she will naturally report to her. When she heard that it was Yang Haiyan who sent the new dishes, she was very curious.

Nanny Lian was brought before the prince and saluted respectfully and in a proper manner: "I greet the prince. My wife asked me to bring you the newly cultivated vegetables in her manor. The seeds of these vegetables were bought from the traveling merchants. According to the traveling merchants, the people in that place eat this kind of vegetables all year round and find that these vegetables are very good for health, especially for children. The vegetables were just harvested yesterday. My wife asked me to cook them and show them to the people in the courtyard. Everyone likes them very much." The implication is that although this is a new variety of vegetables, everyone has eaten it before, and the safety issues are guaranteed.

The prince said, "Your wife is really thoughtful. I received a few rolls of cloth from the capital the other day. They are all new patterns in the capital. I was preparing to send two rolls to your wife, thinking that she is also from the capital and will definitely like it. Since you are here, please bring it to me."

Mrs. Lian: "Yes."

The prince looked at the broccoli in her basket again: "What kind of vegetable is this? It's green and looks a bit like a flower."

Mrs. Lian said, "This vegetable is called broccoli. It was named by the peddlers. The wife said that this thing is green and juicy, It's also quite appropriate to call it green cauliflower. Yes, although this broccoli is durable, the green center of the flower will turn yellow after three days, and the taste will be bad. Madam said, if you like it, just come to our house and tell us, this vegetable will be fine for two months. "

The prince smiled and said, "Mrs. Qin has always been cautious and thoughtful. Green cauliflower, don't say it, it's really appropriate. Green, flower-like vegetables, broccoli... People outside have ulterior motives when naming dishes. "

Mrs. Lian smiled.

After a while, Madam Lian came out with two pieces of cloth. She went to the shopkeeper's shop and waited for the Qin family's carriage. She put the cloth on the carriage and went to the general's mansion.

The prince looked at the broccoli and said to the nanny beside him: "Nanny, this Mrs. Qin is quite thoughtful."

Nanny said: "After all, she came from a wealthy family, so she does things differently. But Mrs. Qin is really interesting. There are many peddlers here, and I have never seen any lady buy seeds from peddlers to cultivate new varieties of vegetables."

The prince said: "Even if they bought and cultivated them, we may not know."

Nanny: "That's right."

The prince said: "Cook this... broccoli in the afternoon, according to the recipe written on the paper by Mrs. Qin."

Nanny: "Yes, I'll go and say hello to the kitchen."

General Ao's Mansion

Speaking of which, since meeting Yang Haiyan at the Marquis' Mansion on the third day of the first lunar month, Ao Jiangshi has not seen her. After all, feelings come from being together. Because they had not met, she gradually forgot about Yang Haiyan, but she did not expect that she would come to deliver food to her one day.

Ao Jiang received the food, and said a few words to Nanny Lian about Yang Haiyan, and then asked Nanny Tian to deliver Nanny Lian. Nanny Tian and Nanny Lian had met once. That day, Yang Haiyan brought Nanny Lian to the general's mansion for a banquet, and it was Nanny Tian who received Yang Haiyan at the door, so the two had never met before.

Coming out of the yard, Nanny Lian paused and caught a glimpse of a familiar figure.

Seeing her stop, Nanny Tian asked, "What's the matter?"

Nanny Lian smiled and said, "I just saw a familiar person, who seemed to have worked in the dental clinic with me." At this point, she explained, "Before I was bought by the madam, I worked in the dental clinic in this county for a while."

Since the dental clinic exists and the business also exists, there is nothing shameful about being born in the dental clinic.

Nanny Tian said, "You are talking about this Mrs. Zhou. My family should have found her from the pawnbroker a few years ago. It is said that she came from the palace and has good manners, so we should hire her to teach the boys and girls in the mansion the rules." General Ao was born in a poor family, and Ao Jiang was also from the countryside, so naturally they didn't know any rules. But now that General Ao has become a fifth-rank guerrilla general, the children in his family are considered to be of good origin, so they naturally have to follow the rules and etiquette, so Ao Jiang went to the pawnbroker to look for this Mrs. Zhou.

Nanny Lian didn't ask much: "I see."

Nanny Lian came out of General Ao's mansion and went to look for Kun Zhang. Kun Zhang sent a bunch of broccoli to the restaurant, and the shopkeeper bought two more. There were still eight broccoli left, which she sold to another restaurant. The reason for the sale was very clear. This was the first batch of broccoli of the year. The Marquis' Mansion and the General's Mansion all ate it. Even if it was to follow the trend, if the Marquis' Mansion ate it, how could the restaurant not eat it?

When Nanny Lian and Kun Zhang returned to the dim sum shop, the broccoli there had been sold out. It was funny to say that most of it was bought by the family members.

The family members in the family members now admired the things in Yang Haiyan's shop.

One broccoli cost three copper coins, which could make two meals. It was only half a cent more expensive than ordinary vegetables, but it was still cheap compared to the cabbage and radish that cost two cents a pound in winter. And it was a fresh variety. Who wouldn't want to try it? It would also be face-saving to say it out.

People in the family room would compare.

Seeing Nanny Lian and Kun Zhang coming, Yang Haiyan asked, "How is it?"

Aunt Lian brought two pieces of cloth: "This is a gift from the Crown Prince. It is said to be a new pattern in the capital." She told everything about the Marquis's Mansion and the General's Mansion, "To Mrs. 깊, I'll see you at the General's Mansion, old slave." ‌Once cooked 그깊.”

Yang Haiyan was curious: "Is he from your former master's family?"

Aunt Lian said hurriedly: "No, it was a familiar lady whom I met when I bought the old slave in the tooth shop that day. She was the old woman who came out of the palace. Do you still remember her?"

How could Yang Haiyan forget that person, but she didn't understand: "That woman stayed in the general's mansion?"

Aunt Lian said: "Yes, Aunt Tian said that it was the general's Yi Jie who came from Yaxing to teach the girl how to behave."

Yang Haiyan thinks this is probably God's will. In the novel, the mother-in-law entering the Han family is indirectly related to General Ao's mansion. After all, General Ao in the novel also belongs to the prince. And now, although the prince who entered General Ao's mansion seems to have nothing to do with Han Zhen and Yang Dahua, who knows what will happen next?

Yang Haiyan had heard about it and didn't worry about it. Anyway, it was good to have a good idea. Then, he asked about Kun Zhang’s broccoli. After hearing what she said, Yang Haiyan felt that the Kun Zhang family was quite smart and would take advantage of the reputation of the Marquis's Mansion and the General's Mansion. However: "Try not to take advantage of the power of the Hou Mansion and General Ao Mansion in the future." Otherwise, if the news reaches the ears of the other party, it will make him feel like he owes them a favor.

Kun Zhang: "Yes."

A total of eighty pieces of broccoli were sold on the same day, and the proceeds were two hundred and forty. Eight hundred broccoli plants, with two or three broccoli plants each, or more than two thousand, can earn six taels of silver, which is not bad.

In the afternoon, when Yang Haiyan was resting at home, Mrs. Kun and Zhang came with a strange boy who looked like a boy.

Mrs. Kun Zhang said: "Madam, this is from the county restaurant. He is the nephew of the owner of Fengshou Restaurant. He is here to order broccoli."

Waiter: "I have met my wife. The broccoli at my wife's house has been well received by the guests, so I came to discuss the broccoli business with my wife."

Yang Haiyan said: "That's it. Little shopkeeper, please sit down and have some tea."

The boy hurriedly said: "Don't dare, don't dare." However, the title of "little shopkeeper" still gave him face.

Yang Haiyan smiled and said: "You're welcome, little shopkeeper. Speaking of which, there are other varieties in my manor, all of which are cultivated from the seeds of traveling merchants. I think it will be next month and the harvest will basically be good. I don't know how expensive it is." Is the restaurant interested in other varieties?”

The waiter said: "Of course there are. If my wife has new dishes, I will bring them over." If the restaurant does not have fresh food, the business will drop. The stir-fried pork with broccoli 꿷 launched at noon is a fresh dish, mainly because everyone has never eaten broccoli before and finds it strange, and the price is also affordable. The amount of food in the restaurant is not large. They fry one broccoli for five plates, and the profit is high.

Moreover, there is a lot of money in the county. For them, what they eat is fresh. As for what it is, whether it is vegetables or not, it doesn't matter at all.

Yang Haiyan said: "Well, when fresh vegetables come next month, I will ask Mrs. Zhang to deliver them."

Waiter: "Thank you, madam. Starting from tomorrow, please also ask madam to provide us with two pieces of broccoli every day."

Yang Haiyan said: "Okay. I will bring it to you as soon as I pick it off every morning." Anyway, Kun Zhang family has to send snacks to the shopkeeper every day, so it is really a good idea to send broccoli. "Little shopkeeper, does your restaurant accept eggs and duck eggs? I also raise a lot of chickens and ducks in my farm."

Waiter: "There is a farmer in the restaurant who specializes in purchasing eggs. I have to ask my uncle about this."

Yang Haiyan: "Then please trouble the little shopkeeper."

Waiter: "You're welcome. Mrs. Qin, my uncle also hopes that our restaurant will be the only restaurant in the county that can sell broccoli."

Yang Haiyan pondered for a while: "If you are the only restaurant selling broccoli, what should I do if the broccoli that cannot be sold in my restaurant is bad?" In fact, there will be no problem if the broccoli field is kept for a few days, but since the restaurant If you want to have a monopoly, the price will be different.

The boy asked, "What are your ideas, Mrs. Qin?" The boy had seen his uncle and the shopkeeper quite a few times in the past day, so he was not as timid as the other boys.

Yang Haiyan smiled: "I also want to do long-term business with your restaurant. Since the broccoli will not be provided to other restaurants, I will charge you four cents for each broccoli from now on."

When the boy came, he had to give instructions to the uncle, so the price was as expected, but it was only one cent more than before. So the business was settled like this.
