delicious little cook

Chapter 1096 Textile Guild
Gu Yun spent the whole morning in the Hanlin Academy in a state of dismay, and the palace chief and his brothers didn't talk nonsense to poke his heart. They waited patiently until noon when Bai Kou's house still delivered the dishes. Seeing Gu Yun's silly face, this Several people also breathed a sigh of relief.

Today's lunch is a large portion of beef stewed taro, and another portion of crab meat lily, the autumn wind blows, the crabs are fat, and the crab meat only takes the little meat on the crab legs, and squeezes out one by one with a rolling pin. This is complete, the shape is petal by petal, lily is also petal by petal, the color is light, and the taste is also light, and a crab has only eight legs. To make such a dish, you need a basket of crabs.

Coupled with the seasonal vegetables, stir-fry and soup made by the cook in the restaurant, the lunch is so empty, there is no broth left, and the thermos bowl containing the beef and taro is filled with a spoonful of rice to clean up the soup and oil Gu Yun, who doesn't like sweets, is holding a bowl of fruit, and the sweet soup after the meal is still divided among the brothers.

Gu Yun was so beautiful that his heart was bubbling. Bai Kou didn't go with King Qing. Before she regretted it, he had to work harder to bring his wife home as soon as possible.

Because he was going to send King Qing off today, Bai Kou had already arranged not to go to the workshop today, and gave himself a day off willfully. He only sent his subordinates to the workshop in the afternoon to bring back the day's letters and deal with them at home.

It is now the end of August and the beginning of September, late autumn is coming, winter is not far away, the winter in the capital is cold and humid, the family is already starting to stockpile charcoal for the winter.

As for Bai Kou, there was good news in the letters brought back by her family members. Both He Xing and the textile guild in Lugan County wrote to her telling her that this year's new cotton is coming to the capital, and that the textile guild has a large lint merchant. The merchants in Lugan County who have brought in bulk goods and used the waterway to transship them at the wharf also have their channels. The textile factory that devours raw materials on the farm can swallow as much lint, but it is still necessary to take care of the livelihood of business partners. We need to save some raw materials for them. Cheap dyed cloth is still the main product in the cotton cloth market. The slightly more expensive yarn-dyed cloth can only be supplied to the middle and upper class, and then sold to other places through merchants from all over the country to increase shipments. .

Bai Kou summed up the amount that both parties could supply, and wrote a letter to all the shareholders. The business war in summer was too fierce, and the traditional veteran weaving experts suffered heavy losses. Now those who control the textile industry in Beijing are all their own people, a profitable business. Of course take care of everyone.

Of course, Bai Kou is not the only source of industry news for the shareholders. Shi Tianmin and his two cousins ​​are in the guild. The Wei family also has an uncle who is in charge of the wine table entertainment. They are all well-informed. This year Xinmian is coming to the capital Each family knew about it at almost the same time, and then notified each other. Bai Kou wrote to them, and they also wrote to Bai Kou. Naturally, the bulk of the raw materials should be satisfied with their textile factories first, so as to ensure the production of yarn-dyed fabrics. The production speed of the weavers is just at a time lag. Before the new cotton dyed cloth is launched this year, the yarn-dyed cloth may have occupied the middle and upper class market.

After several letters and discussions, the distribution ratio of raw materials was determined. Bai Kou wrote back to He Xing, asking him to send all the raw materials that the merchants in Lugan County could get to the farm. She took one-third of the goods, and the rest was divided by the shareholders themselves.

Since he wanted to do business with the guild, Bai Kou naturally went to the guild to meet with the lint merchants in accordance with the rules.

Gu Yun knew that Bai Kou had already made an appointment, and he wanted to go too, but his boss temporarily invited him to do something else at the same time that day, so he had to make an appointment with Bai Kou and go to the textile guild to pick her up after his business was over. Have lunch in the morning and go shopping in the afternoon.

It is not troublesome for Bai Kou to go to the guild alone to talk with others. The main purpose is to sign a contract to buy lint. After the discussion, in the hall, Bai Kou saw the two county heads of Yu Wang's family, Gong Lingyun and Sisters Yueyun, in order to support their family business and to be qualified to stand in front of Gu Yun, they have already come here regularly now. They have learned a lot of knowledge in the industry. They are hardworking, studious, sweet-talking and unassuming, so they have been praised by everyone. favorite.

Gu Yun hadn't come to pick him up yet, and he didn't want to chat with the county magistrate and pretended to be friendly. Bai Kou, who rarely came to the guild, naturally strolled inside, flipping through the guild's self-made yearbook, learning some past history and new knowledge , A person is also enjoying himself.

Naturally, the two county lords also saw that Bai Kou was here, but they often came to the meeting. I heard that today Bai Kou would come to negotiate a contract with Lin Mian, but the two parties really had no friendship at all, and the two sisters had always relied on their clan daughters identity, and it has been a year, and the illness has been cured, and he thinks he can be matched with a good man of the right family, so he naturally treats Bai Kou as a rival in love, but Bai Kou is really powerful, and we still have to avoid her right now, see you now She is decisively turning a blind eye here.

The county master came to hand in homework and return the borrowed books before borrowing other books. The yearbook that Bai Kou read was also in the same big room. Tea, waiting for their new friends to meet.

For next year's five-year salt ticket, the salt merchants sent representatives to the capital for activities. The two sisters talked about Xinzhou salt merchant Jiang's family. Others came from men, but this family came from the eldest daughter Jiang Yueyi. An extremely beautiful beauty, she was the only one who came out to support the family when something happened to her family, and the salt merchant had always been wealthy, and she spent a lot of money in the social circle of the female relatives. If you say that in the past, the daughter of King Yu could not see the temperament of a nouveau riche Salt merchants, but Jiang Yueyi is also a capable woman who works hard for the family with her daughter, and the feeling of sympathy makes the three of them quickly become friends.

Jiang Yueyi arrived on time as scheduled, chatted with the two sisters for a while, drank a cup of tea, and the three of them got up and walked out, intending to walk slowly to the restaurant they had reserved, and did not bring too many followers.

As soon as the three of them left the gate of the guild, they saw a four-wheeled carriage with the mark of Ye Guogong's mansion approaching. The two sisters stopped first. Jiang Yueyi didn't recognize the mark, but when she saw the two of them stop, she stopped too. The three girls just stood by the gate, and the six pairs of eyes looked at the carriage made of high-quality wood together.

The car door was pushed open from the inside, and Gu Yun, who was wearing a peacock green robe mixed with gold and silver thread, got out of the car, with a mantis hairpin on his head, and entered the door in a few steps without looking sideways. The two county heads who wrote.

When Jiang Yueyi saw this handsome young man, she couldn't help holding her breath, watching him walk in front of her and enter the gate, it took her a while to recover, and then she saw the same obsessed eyes of the county princess and sisters.
