Chapter 49 Chili
"chili?"

She took two strides over, squatted down and picked up the things on the ground.

This shape, this smell, what else can it be if it is not dried chili?
Fourteen likes spicy food, especially the spicy taste made by chili.But there was no pepper in the Dali Dynasty, neither in Xiao Shishiniang's memory nor in the original book, there is no pepper.

I actually saw peppers in Qiong Yaoju today!
Fourteen was already a little bit ecstatic.

"Miss Xiao recognizes this thing?" Seeing Shisi's appearance, shopkeeper Chen stepped forward to ask.

Fourteen stood up from the ground and calmed down his excitement.

"Where did the shopkeeper find these?" She said, "It's a kind of spice. I've heard of it, but I haven't seen the real thing much before."

"Alas!" Hearing this, shopkeeper Chen sighed, and then said, "I'm just angry because of this."

"The master in charge of buying spices in the restaurant is on leave. In the past two days, some spices have run out. I found a smart one, gave him money, and told him where to look for what kind of spices. What kinds of spices do you buy in the shop?"

"In the end, he brought me back a sack of this thing."

"Ma'am, tell me, I've never seen this thing before. What can I use it for? He also argued with me that the person who sold it to him said it was a spice, and it was used for cooking."

"If someone says it works, he will believe it. Fortunately, I usually see him as clever and capable of doing things, but he is also an idiot no matter how I think of it!"

"Who bought these peppers?" Fourteen asked.

"You, come here!"

The guy who was flinching and questioning just now came over.Fourteen saw his face clearly, isn't this the guy who was in charge of receiving them when she brought Xiao Yan over for dinner last time?

"Boss, I was wrong. I will remember it next time, and I won't dare to do it again." The waiter defended himself, "It's that bearded man who said that this stuff is delicious when put in dishes. He also said that we Dali Dynasty definitely doesn’t have this thing, if I buy it back, then our restaurant can make dishes that other restaurants don’t have.”

"Do you dare to buy something you have never seen before? Do you believe it when people say it can be put in the dish? What if it is not a spice but something else? What if you put it in the dish and let the guests eat it and poison you to death?"

"Who's in charge? Are you in charge?"

The guy was directly scolded by shopkeeper Chen and cried.

"The shopkeeper, I know I'm wrong. The shopkeeper, I really know that I'm wrong. I... I'll go find him!"

Upon hearing this, shopkeeper Chen kicked him angrily.

"You are looking for him, where are you going to find him? He is a devil from Outland, and he is here to trick fools like you!"

"Master Chen." Fourteen said, "Can you listen to me?"

"My lady, tell me."

"To be honest, although I haven't seen this thing in the Dali Dynasty." Fourteen pointed to the pepper and said, "But it is indeed edible, it is a kind of spice."

"Really?" Hearing this, the young man standing behind Shopkeeper Chen who was weeping silently raised his head and looked at Shisi.At this moment, it seemed that she was the savior who could save him from fire and water with just one word.

Fourteen is not good to refute shopkeeper Chen's face in front of everyone, without further explanation.He only asked: "I want to buy these peppers from shopkeeper Chen, is the shopkeeper willing to resell them to me?"

"What?" Shopkeeper Chen looked surprised, "My lady wants to buy these back? Do you want to cook?"

Even if this thing is not poisonous, he would not dare to cook with it casually.Things that no one has seen before, if something happens to him if something happens to him, it will not be a matter of making money or losing money.

"Yes." Fourteen nodded, "I like to eat this. Since shopkeeper Chen doesn't need it, sell it to me."

"What are you talking about whether it's for sale or not? If the lady wants it, just take it away." Shopkeeper Chen waved his hand, "I originally planned to throw this thing away. Since Miss Xiao has taken a fancy to it, then treat it as a favor from me. .”

Fourteen thought about it, but did not refuse: "Then thank you, shopkeeper Chen."

"You." He pointed to the guy behind him and said, "Bring these to the car for Mrs. Xiao."

"Did the lady come here by car?"

"Yes." Fourteen nodded, "It's just outside, it's still a donkey cart."

The man moved quickly, squatting on the ground and holding back the spilled peppers quickly. He worked swiftly and carefully. The layer on the ground was useless, but was picked up one by one and wiped off the soil before putting them away. Back to the sack.

"Lady, I'll put it in the car for you."

Thanks to this lady who spoke for him today, the shopkeeper did not pursue his fault.

The guy is full of gratitude to Fourteen at this time, this lady is really a kind person, a great kind person!

"I'll take you there together." Fourteen signaled to Shopkeeper Chen, "Shopkeeper Chen, then I'll go there first."

"Miss Xiao, please."

Shisi led Xiao Yan to follow the pace of the buddy, and came to the donkey cart with him.

"What's your name?" Fourteen asked.

"Huh?" The man was surprised and didn't react.

"Oh, the lady is asking for the little one's name."

"The younger one is called Lin Er." Lin Er thanked again, "Just now I really thank you lady for speaking for me, I really thank you lady."

"I just want to eat chili." Fourteen was embarrassed to describe his selfishness as kindness.

"Then I'd like to thank my lady. If it wasn't for my lady, I would be miserable."

Ever since he came to work at Qiongyaoju, the shopkeeper had never been so angry with him.Just now, Lin Er felt that he might have received his salary.

This lady is a good person, she does not take credit for doing good things, she must be a good person, a good person!

"You don't need to thank me." Fourteen didn't know what Lin Er was thinking, but said, "I still have a question for you."

"Miss, please ask."

"Do you remember what the guy who sold you these peppers looked like?"

"Remember!" Thinking of the person who cheated him, Lin Er gritted his teeth and said, "I can recognize him even if he turns to ashes."

"I still want to buy peppers from him." Fourteen said, "Did he say how long he can stay here?"

"I still buy it!" Lin Er yelled out, only to realize that he was impolite, "Miss, don't be angry, I didn't mean that."

Fourteen laughed, but she didn't think he meant anything.

"It's alright, keep talking."

"Oh, it's the bearded man. He didn't say when he would leave." Lin Er recalled, "But I see that there are still a lot of things on the camels he led that have not been sold."

"It should be sold out before leaving."

"Is there any chili?"

"There should be." Lin Er said: "People here don't recognize this thing at all. It's no wonder he can step out. The ones on his camel's back may be peppers."

"Then can you please take me there?" Fourteen said, "Don't worry, I will ask shopkeeper Chen for leave for you, and I will pay you twice the wages today."

"Take me to find the person who sold you chili peppers. After you find it, you can come back and continue working. I'll give you a whole day's worth of wages, twice as much."
