o out for a bit. With your older brother's skills, could he possibly drag me back home into the ditch"Zong Yu stared at his younger brother for a long time, but he didn't see him let go of his sleeve....Ten days later, in the most luxurious private room of Baoqing Tower, the most opulent restaurant in the capital city, sat ten men with imposing presences.
Some were adorned with gold and silver, others exuded an air of luxury. These were the top merchants in the capital city. Some who couldn't come in person would send their most trusted managers instead.
At this moment, these dozen or so people are arguing heatedly about one thing.
"Why did your Lou family cooperate with Jinshuicai Restaurant first"
“They’re looking for the best estates in the capital to cooperate with. Don’t you know how much grain and vegetables your Lou family's estate in the suburbs produces each year”
The young master of the Lou family didn't like to hear this.
"What's wrong with Zhuang in my building"
No matter how prosperous Jinxiu Cai Zhuang was in Xizhou, this is the capital city. It's far more impressive than that impoverished backwater in Xizhou.
To tell you the truth, stop arguing. This Jinshu Cai Zhuang might just be a pretty pillow, good for nothing.
"You big landowners, of course, keep your own land for bigger deals. Why bother with these unsavory jobs"
When everyone heard the young master of the Lou family say this, the whole audience was silent for three seconds, and then someone burst into laughter.
"Sorry, I couldn't help it."
"Dare I ask, Young Master Lou, where does your Lou family procure its grain and fruits and vegetables these days"
Although over a dozen wealthy businessmen were present in this private room, the one seated closest to the main seat must undoubtedly be the most influential among them.
In any circle, without rules there is no shape or form.
Young Master Lou's seat was located towards the back, which accurately reflected the Lou family's standing among this group of merchants.
The man who had just spoken sat in the first position to the right of the main seat. Young Master Lou, with a face full of anger, searched for the person who had mocked him. As a result, when he looked, his whole body wilted instantly, and he stammered back.
"Hui, Huiqi, the words of Qiye came from Jinxiu Caizhuang."
The dishes at Jinxiu Cai Zhuang are indeed quite different from those elsewhere.
Whether it's the taste, appearance, or even shelf life, this produce is better than anywhere else.
The same two bunches of greens, if left untreated, a normal bunch would wilt and yellow in just two or three days. But the vegetables from Jinxiu Mountain Villa, apart from being slightly drier on the surface, look almost as fresh as new ones when sprinkled with a little water.
And don't even mention how much better its taste is compared to produce from other places; it's impossible for it not to be popular.
Even though Jinxiu Caizhuang is currently only open in Xizhou, prominent officials and nobles, as well as wealthy patrons from the capital city, have already used their connections to enjoy the delicacies of Jinxiu Caizhuang.
Once you've tasted the grains, fruits, and vegetables produced by Jinshi Caizhuang, it will be hard to eat ordinary ones again.
This is the saying: it's easy to go from poverty to wealth, but difficult to go from wealth to poverty.
The young master of the Lou family felt his face burning as soon as he finished answering, and the people around him chuckled.
"Young Master Lou is quite the talker, isn't he To say that Jinxiu Vegetable Garden is just a fancy pillow... then I suppose the Lou family's business wouldn't even be worth a single tuft of stuffing."
"After all, Young Master Lou is still young. He thought he could just pick at a few things and make a big profit."
"After all, he's still too young."
"That's how young people are these days."
These old fellows, with their constant nagging and badgering, quickly left young Master Lou humiliated.
He couldn't help but cast a pleading look at Qilang, who had spoken just now. He had followed Qilang's instructions when he spoke, but he didn't know such a scene would appear after he finished speaking.
That Jinxiu Vegetable Market, isn't it just a place to buy vegetables Why is it so highly regarded by so many people
Even someone as prestigious as the Seventh Immortal would come to promote it.
What's the story behind this Jinxiu Cai Zhuang
Among the people present, there was also someone with a mind as simple as Young Master Lou's. However, due to his special and distinguished status, when everyone got down to business, they all unanimously looked towards the young man sitting in the head seat.
That slovenly sleeping posture made everyone shake their heads.
"Young Master Zong Er, wake up."
The young merchant, known as Qixie, nudged Zong Taimu awake, who was snoring loudly. If it weren't for the fact that his great-grandfather was the current chief minister, no one here would take this good-for-nothing young master seriously, let alone put him in the seat of honor.
"Should Young Master Zong Er participate in the business of Jinshu Cai Zhuang" if they ate slowly, the fish meat would be gone!Qin Chongyan also hurriedly followed suit, taking a bite of the fish. His eyes narrowed with pleasure."Delicious! Delicious!""I have never tasted fish...
