Daming: I, Yang Xian, really govern Yang!

Chapter 48 Confused Li Jiujiang

Capital, Suzaku Street.

Ming Kee Dessert Shop.

Wang Yuemin raised his head and saw a young man pulling a carriage heading straight towards their shop, with a puzzled look on his face.

Judging from the way the other person is dressed, he doesn't look like someone who has a daily habit of eating desserts.

Could it be that you finally came to the capital and wanted to buy something for your family to eat before going back?

If you are this age, you should buy it for your younger siblings at home.

Wang Yuemin already has an idea in mind. When the other party asks about the price, he will give him a price that is neither too high nor too low, just psychologically acceptable.

She didn't want her kindness to end up being charity in the eyes of others.

But unfortunately, Wang Yuemin guessed wrong.

This boy didn't come here to buy sweets.

I just heard the young man say: "It's Wang Yuemin, Miss Wang. I'm from Yangzhou City. Mr. Yang said that after I arrive in the capital, I can come to you if anything happens."

Yangzhou, Mr. Yang.

When the young man said these two words, Wang Yuemin's expression immediately changed.

Wang Yuemin nodded slightly. She noticed the boy's wink towards her, raised her head, looked into the distance and narrowed her eyes slightly.

Sure enough, at the corner of the street in the distance, a few people were looking at the situation obscenely.

After seeing that their whereabouts were discovered, these people did not hesitate and turned around and left as if they had completed their mission.

Only then did Wang Yuemin have time to look at the young man in front of him carefully, and asked: "Who are those people just now, and why did Master Yang ask you to come to the capital?"

Liu Kun didn't hide anything, and told Wang Yuemin everything about Yang Xian's entrustment on this trip and what he did after arriving in the capital.

Anyone whom Mr. Yang trusts, Liu Kun trusts unconditionally and absolutely.

Wang Yuemin pondered for a moment and then said: "According to what you said, those people just now can basically be concluded that they are centenarians. They probably want to find out your background. After all, fresh vegetables in winter are too expensive." Too precious.”

"If you carry all this gold and silver with you on the way, you won't be able to go quickly. If you trust me, just to be on the safe side, you can leave the money with me first. I will write a letter directly to you to take it back. Explain clearly to Mr. Yang."

"Everything is up to Miss Wang's arrangement." Liu Kun said directly.

For more than 6000 taels of silver, Wang Yuemin did not expect that the other party would agree directly without even thinking about it. He was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously asked: "Do you believe in me so much?"

"Master Yang said that I can trust you unconditionally, Miss Wang." Liu Kun grinned, showing his white teeth.

"Jiujiang, where are you taking us? There are no good restaurants if we go further. There is only one hundred-year-old Songju. We are already tired of eating." There were six people in the group. Everyone was dressed luxuriously. They were either handsome young men, or The beautiful lady, the only chubby one said.

"Why are you babbling? I told you that today everything will be arranged by Xiao Jiujiang." The young man walking in the middle of the team frowned and glared at the fat man.

"Your Highness will scold you for being dishonest." A young girl covered her mouth and teased.

That young man was the Fourth Prince Zhu Di, and his birthday was coming soon.Zhu Di's friends decided to take him out to celebrate in advance, because the prince's official birthday banquet was really boring, and the location of the celebration was arranged by Li Jiujiang.

"We're here, Your Highness." After the group walked for a long time, Li Jiujiang stopped in front of a restaurant and said.

"Isn't it? Is it really a hundred-year-old Songju?"

"There is nothing new at all. You really shouldn't leave this matter to Jiujiang. He is too old-fashioned when it comes to handling things. My father also likes to have his gatherings here."

"Baisui Songju is most famous for its vegetarian dishes, but in the middle of winter, how can we make any good dishes?"

When the friends saw that the gathering place was really at Baisui Songju, they all started to complain.Even the girl from before was no exception.

Everyone present was from a noble background, and to them, there was really nothing new about Centenary Songju.

But it is finally a choice that cannot go wrong.

"Okay, that's it, let's all go in," Zhu Di said, and then walked in first.

A group of people just entered the restaurant.

He was led personally by the shopkeeper to the Tianzihao private room upstairs.

"Master Li, this is the latest dish in the shop." Shopkeeper Jin smiled and took out a menu from his arms. He called Li Jinglong, but the menu in his hand was handed to Zhu Di who was sitting at the main table. before. "I would also like to ask you all, ladies and gentlemen, to give your review."

Zhu Di just glanced at it and couldn't move his eyes away.

"Your Highness, did I see it wrong?" Chang Mao, the fat man sitting on Zhu Di's left hand side, rubbed his eyes with his hands in surprise, his face full of disbelief.

The other friends looked at Chang Mao's shocked expression and his meaningless words, and their curiosity suddenly aroused, and they all poked their heads over to see what was on the menu.

“You can actually eat fresh cucumbers in winter, it’s really a lie.”

"Are there any carrots in season?"

"Shopkeeper, are all the ingredients used in the dishes on the menu really fresh vegetables?"

After getting a positive reply from the shopkeeper.

The friends who had previously been sarcastic towards Li Jiujiang immediately changed their faces.

"Ahem, I was wrong. I shouldn't have doubted Jiujiang before."

"It's the first time since I was born that I can eat fresh vegetables in winter. Jiujiang is really yours!"

"Why didn't I know about Centenary Songju and this before? That's okay, you Jiujiang, how did you know about it?"

Li Jiujiang, who was sitting on the right side of Zhu Di, looked confused. Faced with the exaggeration of his friends, he could only smile awkwardly.

how do i know
I just found out too.

Li Jiujiang complained in his heart that he only knew that there were fresh vegetables at Baisui Songju at the moment he looked at the menu.

Obviously when he came to order a banquet before, the shopkeeper never mentioned this matter to him at all.

The dishes he originally ordered were just ordinary expensive dishes.

But at this time, it was naturally difficult for him to tell the truth.

The only way is to get off the donkey along the slope.

Fortunately, the shopkeeper of Baisui Songju kept covering for him. At the same time, he also talked about how much effort Li Jinglong put into this banquet.

It is true that the road has been broadened.

"Shopkeeper, let me ask one more question, where do these fresh vegetables in your restaurant come from?" Zhu Di suddenly said.

Shopkeeper Jin knew that these people in front of him were of high status. He recognized Li Jinglong and could have a son of a dignified prince as his companion. He didn't even dare to guess the identity of this young man.

　The issue of vegetable prices raised by book friends is actually recorded in various documents, both in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, that fresh vegetables were expensive in winter in ancient times.
