Chapter 257 Disguise
Wang couldn't figure it out, but in the end it could only be attributed to the special considerations of the people behind the scenes.

Wang Qi, Wang's confidant, took the brazier with his own hands, walked dozens of steps into the warehouse, picked out a sack, and inserted the brazier into it. The white flowers are like a small waterfall.

The subordinate in charge hurriedly took the bag to catch it, and exclaimed:

"Qiye, this rice is about the same as what we usually buy for the master's family!"

Wang Qi, the steward known as the "Seven Master", really felt that his eyes were opened.

This batch of grain was bought at the price of grain in Kyoto.Originally, those of them who bought it thought that Mrs. Wang was coaxed by the little girl's sweet talk and gave a high price - after all, it is wholesale, how can it be at the same price as retail?
However, now that I have seen the quality of the rice with my own eyes, and thinking about the shipping costs, I have to hire escorts and rent warehouses... I know that if I really want to pay attention to it, I still have to take advantage of it.

Wang Qi selected a few more grain bags, randomly checked them, and found that the quality was exactly the same as this one.

Among other things, to be able to find such a large amount of such high-quality food, that little girl's ability is really not small!

Wang Qi and his men sorted out the bags of grain and weighed them, a total of [-] shi.

These ten thousand stones are pure white rice that has been peeled off!

After listening to Wang Qizai's detailed report, Mrs. Wang was very satisfied.

She happily gave Xia Daohua a silver ticket, 5000 taels.There are five light 1000 double denomination bank notes in total, which can fit in a purse.

Xia Daohua accepted it with a smile, and carefully checked the seal on the bank note against the sunlight, without showing any sign of being polite.After receiving the banknote, Xia Daohua said to Wang again:

"If my wife still needs it, a batch can be shipped from the capital in a few days. But the type of food may be different."

Wang said: "If it's not that they can't survive, who would come out to flee the famine? The disaster victims can eat what they have, and they don't care about so much. Those who have a stutter, if they can survive, they have already burnt high incense. How can they be so delicate? good food?"

Xia Daohua said: "It doesn't matter. If my wife replaces these fine grains with coarse grains, maybe even more people can be saved."

Wang nodded with a smile.

It is true that more people can be saved if this grain is replaced with coarse grain.

It's just that there is knowledge in how to change this method.

If someone really took the mildewed, old sesame seeds and rotten millet and exchanged these fine white rice, I would lose all my face!

This Xia Daohua can quickly deploy such a large batch of fine grains, and the people behind it must not be simple.

I can't offend her.

She was willing to suffer a loss on the public face, but it was for the sake of the victims and the peace of this auspicious county.

Maybe it was also the meaning of the person behind the scenes.

You can't do it any worse by yourself.

While thinking this way, Wang shi pondered silently in her heart: Which force is hiding behind Xia Daohua?
She thought about it carefully for a long while, and thought about several top families that could be compared with the Wang family and Yang family, and dozens of first-class families.

After thinking about it, I always feel that the most suspicious ones are Li and Gu.

It's okay to say that this surnamed Li is just a rising star. I heard that he had a falling out with his father, so there is no family support behind him, and what he relies on is nothing more than holy favor.

But if the person behind her is really that surnamed Gu... the matter here will be a mess.

Wang looked at Xia Daohua, hesitant to speak.

Xia Daohua was a little strange: "What's wrong with Ma'am? If you have anything to say, just ask. If you can do it, you should do your best to share the worries for Madam."

In the end, Mrs. Wang swallowed the curious words back, and only smiled lightly:
"You are clever, no wonder you are valued so much!"

Xia Daohua knew that Wang probably misunderstood, but she didn't expose it. She just smiled casually, but inadvertently strengthened Wang's guess.

Wang's attitude suddenly became more friendly and gentle.

The two chatted a few more words, and then agreed while chatting and laughing. After a while, according to the number of refugees and the situation of relief, they decided whether to buy another batch of grain.

Xia Daohua thought about it, and decided to keep the bodyguard, convoy, and warehouse, and continue to rent them for a few days.

It's just a matter of spending a few bucks.

When it is useful, it is an excellent cover.

Moreover, it is true that the escort and the team can do something.For example, go to Kyoto to buy some ingredients and seasonings that are only available in the Chu Dynasty...

Xia Daohua still wants to open a teahouse.

Although the place she was optimistic about was bought by Wang before, but it is not the only place that is suitable for opening a teahouse.

It's just that she has too few available, credible, and reliable talents.

It's useless to rush this matter, you might as well take your time.

As for buying local ingredients and seasonings, of course it is the basic cultivation of a foodie.She has eaten all the special snacks in Jixiang County these days.

I have to try places like the capital again, are there any new tricks!

Every time she goes to eat these delicious foods, she always brings Linghua, a snack food, with her.

The tongue of the snack food is very sensitive, and you can tell which raw materials are used by tasting it. The stall owners are often surprised when they say it.

It's just that I have also met that small-bellied person, and I feel that Linghua has broken their prescription, and it will be embarrassing for Linghua.

Whenever this happens, Xia Daohua will be in charge of appeasement, give the store some more copper coins, and then pile up a smiling face to apologize, say something about children who are ignorant, and ask for forgiveness.

Although she doesn't take these secret recipes seriously, she can understand people's concern.

Linghua learned to be good after suffering two losses, and later, she basically whispered in her ear, and she praised the little girl a few times, so that the little girl continued to eat happily.

Because she often follows Xia Daohua to open a small stove, prefers to eat home meals, and is still reluctant to let go, Linghua's face has become more and more round recently.

Her original facial features were all round.A pair of big eyes, especially round, with long, black eyelashes, as thick as two rows of small fans.

Now that she is young, how do you really look at it, how can it make people feel so cute as hell.

Xia Daohua often dressed up in men's clothes, took Linghua with her, walked in any direction, and then found a restaurant or food stand to taste all kinds of delicacies that they had never tasted before.

A handsome young man who always had a gentle smile, and a chubby cute girl who was fat from head to toe, this combination of one big and one small, almost walked all over the streets and alleys of the outer city of Jixiang County.

 Good night, sweet dreams, see you tomorrow.Love you, (づ ̄ 3 ̄)づ
