Chapter 78 You might as well go with a high-ranking person
Chapter 78 Why don’t you go get close to someone in a high position?
There was nothing left of the four dishes, and almost all went into Yuan Yi's stomach. In the end, he simply wrapped several plates with white rice, mixed with the soup and had another bowl.
He slumped in the chair comfortably: "I haven't felt so good after eating for a long time."
"Miss An, how about I hire you to be a cook in my house at a high price? You only have to be responsible for my three meals a day."
An Shuyao declined politely: "Cooking is just my interest. I don't want to be a cook."
Yuan Yi felt a little pity: "Okay, how much do you sell the fungus for?"
"Three hundred coins per pound, do you think Yuan Shaodong's family is worthy of it?"
Yuan Yi pondered, then nodded readily: "Okay, that's right, I'll give you another thirty taels and ask for your recipe for these three dishes. Do you think it's okay?"
Thirty taels?
Everyone knows this kind of home-cooked cooking, but don’t give up the free money. An Shuyao smiled at Yuan Yi even more cordially: “Of course it’s okay.”
Yuan Yi was satisfied: "Copy down the recipe and remember to be precise about how much salt is used!"
An Shuyao was ashamed, must he be so meticulous...
Yuan Yi looked at the clean fish-flavored shredded pork on the plate and asked, "It's spicy, what's the green one?"
An Shuyao said: "Those are the peppers grown at home to enhance the flavor."
This is a good thing. The spiciness is much stronger than that of dogwood.
He asked: "Is there any more? I want all of Zuixian Pavilion."
An Shuyao replied: "Not much, but if Yuan Shaodong's family wants it, I will send it to you here first."
"It's just that prices in Taolin County are too high, and I don't know when they will return to normal."
For example, rice and flour cost thirty or forty cents a pound here, but only thirteen cents in Shengjing. This is double the price.
Chinese cabbage costs one penny a pound on the poor streets, but it sells for fifteen pence here.
Her vegetables are blessed by spiritual springs, so it doesn't take three months to harvest like normal. She can have a harvest in about half a month at the fastest.
When the time comes to sell them in large quantities, if the price is high, they will be unsalable. If they are sold cheap, they will be afraid of trouble from the county magistrate.
She looked at Yuan Yi and continued to ask: "Yuan Shaodong's family, what is the relationship between your Yuan family and the Taolin County Magistrate? Do you know why he raised the price so high?"
Yuan Yi remembered what An Shuyao said when he passed by that day. Although he admired her for having ideas and courage, he still couldn't help but sneered: "What else can we do? There is collusion between the government and the people. Who doesn't want to have money?"
Earn money? Several landowners in the county also have industries in other places. To be honest, they don't like the mosquito meat in Taolin County, but for profit, even a little businessman will not let it go. This kind of trend has formed, and for a while
It will be difficult to get it right for a while.”
Seeing her deep in thought, Yuan Yi glanced at Mu Jincheng, with a meaningful smile on his lips: "Of course, there is no solution to this. For example, if you get close to a high-ranking person, the change is just a word
The other problem is that if the Taolin County magistrate is forced to step down, the new county magistrate will naturally fall apart and cease to exist."
"But the latter is a bit difficult. Qian Feng, the magistrate of Taolin County, has been in Taolin County for fifteen years. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is the local emperor of this area. Not only does he have collusion between the officials and the people, but he also has a close relationship with the ruthless bandits in the mountains.
, his foundation is difficult to shake."
"Because he was generous and bribed local officials. The high-ranking officials in the county and city turned a blind eye and it was difficult to get out of office. I suggest you choose the former option, which will be faster and more effective."
It turns out that this is the case, so the forces behind Magistrate Qian are complicated and can affect the whole body. It is still difficult for the market to return to normal.
As for high position and authority...
Does her husband’s former emperor count...
Forget it, he has no power or influence now, but he finally got a job and is now a wage earner.
An Shuyao took a deep breath: "Thank you Yuan Shaodong's family for informing me. As for the price of green peppers, I will carefully consider it."
In the end, An Shuyao made a total of forty-five taels, and the fungus weighed fifty kilograms. In addition, An Shuyao was very pleased with the thirty taels that he had paid for free.
Including the previous silver coins, she has already saved two hundred taels, and there are still three or four taels of broken silver that can be used.
She also has to go to the county to buy rice, noodles, meat, sugar, snacks, sieves, soybeans, and weigh more sweet potatoes.
An Shuyao left with a basket on his back.
When she walked to the door, before she could see clearly, a hand slammed into her face, followed by a burst of curses.
"What a poor peasant girl! She almost hit our old lady, why don't you get out of here!"
An Shuyao's eyes turned cold, and her hand quickly grabbed the wrist. She quickly looked at the person who came, and it was the same old face. It was the maid in green clothes that day, and the old lady in her mouth was still one step away from her.
What about collision?
The last time it hit her, she didn't bother to pay attention, but this time it hit her directly in the face.
A smile appeared on her lips, and she exerted force on her hands. Her cotton-like complexion immediately turned pale. She couldn't struggle away, so she began to cry out in pain: "Let go, let me go, young master, young master, help me, woo woo woo."
, Master!”
An Shuyao sneered: "Whose dog has such great authority that he will not pay attention to passers-by in broad daylight?"
Yuan Yi heard the sound and came out. He was dumbfounded as he looked at An Shuyao, who suddenly transformed from a delicate woman to a tough man. His cotton-like wrists turned purple when he saw it. How powerful this was.
He subconsciously put his hands behind his back and said with an ugly face: "To be honest...it's my family's dog."
"Pfft." An Shuyao couldn't help but laugh out loud. Simian glanced at Yuan Yi in disbelief. This woman called her a dog. The most unacceptable thing was that her young master also agreed.
Xi Mian's eyes immediately filled with tears. She bit her red lips and said, "Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu, Master, this slave is in so much pain."
Yuan Yi was a little embarrassed. An Shuyao glanced at her coldly and let go in disgust: "If you want to raise her, tie her up well. Why do you bite people when you see them? People who don't know think that the style of your Yuan family is nothing more than this."
Yuan Yi was said to be speechless, mainly because their family had always lived in Tianyuan City, and Mrs. Yuan came back because she wanted to go back to her hometown for retirement.
Si Mian was used to being a maid in a big city, and when she came to the remote Taolin County, it was inevitable that her eyes would be a little higher.
Yuan Yi immediately apologized. An Shuyao was a cash cow and the God of Wealth to him.
"Miss An, please don't be angry. It was Yuan who was not strict in discipline and bumped into Miss An. I hope you will show mercy."
Naturally, An Shuyao didn't bother to get angry with such a little girl who had such high-mindedness, so she just dealt with her on the spot.
Mrs. Yuan on one side rubbed her eyes, and after confirming again and again, she said in surprise: "Girl, it turns out to be you."
Yuan Yi was confused by his grandmother's voice of surprise. He scratched his head: "Grandma, do you know Miss An?"
Mrs. Yuan clapped her hands and was very excited: "She is the miracle doctor who saved me that day."
