Seeing the carriage stop, the inn clerk rushed over diligently, looked them up and down, and found that they were official servants. He said politely: "Where are you guys from, and where are you going? Are you working as a police officer or staying in a hotel?"
Song Captou took out the guide and said, "Help feed the horse, let's have something to eat, and then leave after taking a rest."
The waiter glanced at Lu Yin and said pleasantly: "Okay! Please give me the carriage and please go to the restaurant in front for lunch."
As the saying goes: You must not have the intention to harm others, and you must have the intention to guard against others.
Gu Yunxiao casually locked the carriage door with a brass lock.
The three of them walked to the restaurant in front.
The restaurant is very spacious and there are many guests inside.
They ordered a few dishes and steamed buns, then found an unobtrusive dining table and sat down to wait.
There were several well-dressed young people sitting in the seats next to them, and they were talking in a low voice: "Have you heard that the emperor wants to establish a prince?"
Gu Yunxiao had heard that this was the Xia Dynasty, an imaginary dynasty.
The emperor was in his fifties, in good health, and had not established a prince.
He has five sons, none of whom are legitimate children, but are all concubines. They have all grown up to have families and become kings. It is hard to see who they prefer.
There are also more than a dozen grandchildren, all of different ages. It is said that the eldest grandson is twenty years old.
Hearing this, Gu Yunxiao's mouth twitched.
Fortunately, the old emperor only had five sons. If he had eight or nine sons, wouldn't there be a Rebellion of the Eight Kings or nine sons seizing the throne?
These things are far away from me, so don’t listen to them.
Continue to listen to those people's gossip: "The second prince has a physical disability; the third prince is also in poor health; only the eldest prince, King Qi, and the fourth prince, King Jin, compete. I heard that the eldest prince, Queen Qi, married a princess who was disliked by the emperor, and she was still the fourth prince. The King of Jin is expected to inherit the throne."
A smaller voice said: "I heard that the current Princess Qi came to the throne from the side concubine. Over the years, she gave birth to five daughters."
"It turns out that Princess Qi has a good appearance and character, but she is too down-to-earth. Although she has two sons by her side, she was tricked by her. I heard she was poisoned to death..."
"I heard that King Qi's young legitimate son died from choking after eating. Because of this, it turned out that Princess Qi's old father had a falling out with King Qi and took his only eldest grandson back to be raised. Now there is only one child in Prince Qi's palace. Now there are several girls born to Princess Qi, and two concubines born to several concubines."
"Shhh...it's better not to talk about these things, it will be bad if others hear you."
"Um!"
Gu Yunxiao murmured in his heart: I didn't expect that men in this world also like gossip.
For some reason, Gu Yunxiao sympathized with the legitimate son of the Qi family who had saved his life.
Not only did my mother die, but my younger brother also died. Thanks to my grandfather's protection, I saved my life.
Of course she knew that no matter whether it was a palace fight or a house fight, Silly Baitian would be eliminated early. The original Princess Qi must have been too kind-hearted to be plotted against.
Fortunately, Princess Qi's natal family was responsible and protected the last lineage of her family.
While I was thinking about it, the waiter brought lunch.
Gu Yunxiao picked up the chopsticks and tasted it, and immediately frowned.
It tastes bland, like boiled vegetables.
This is too delicious!
She walked out and pretended to put the luggage in the car, but actually took out a bottle of beef sauce from the space.
I looked at the outer packaging and saw that it was very spacious, but there was no shelf life or instructions on it.
Even the glass bottles have become small clay pots.
It's very much like home-made meat sauce.
She took it back and opened it and said, "Uncle Song, Brother Luo, try the beef sauce made by my mother."
Song Captou took a taste, his eyes suddenly lit up and he praised: "I was wondering how your cooking skills are so good. It turns out that you learned it from your mother."
Gu Yunxiao nodded and smiled and said, "Yes!"
Captain Luo took a quick taste of the meat sauce and was full of praise.
Thinking of the little plan in his mind, he asked tentatively: "Gu Baotou, can you let my sister come to your house to learn cooking skills when you get back?"
Gu Yunxiao looked at Inspector Luo and wondered why he had such an idea?
I can only say apologetically: "I'm sorry, my mother is still in confinement, and my two sisters are very busy now and make pastries every day. Besides, my cooking skills are not bad for cooking by myself, so I can't be a chef."
Not only Captain Song, but also Captain Luo was confused.
Asked curiously: "What kind of pastries do you make?"
When Gu Yunxiao saw the faces of the two curious babies, he could only say: "Just wait!"
She went out again and took out two cookies and two cakes from the bundle.
Yun Lan stuffed this into her pocket before leaving. There was a lot of milk powder in it and she hadn't had time to eat it yet.
"Try it, it's a pastry like this, it tastes delicious!"
Song Captou broke the biscuits and cakes apart and each of them tasted half a piece.
Immediately he was full of praise and said: "Yes, your sister has made pastries, do you plan to sell them?"
Gu Yunxiao nodded and said: "I asked the one-armed king to take out food and give him 10% of his income."
Capt. Song quickly thought of something and said with emotion: "Yunxiao, Capt. Wang, mother and son will soon have a chance to survive. You are so kind, and you will definitely be rewarded in the future."
Gu Yunxiao said modestly: "I am also worried that it will be difficult to support my family with this salary. I want my sister to earn some money. I got the secret recipe by chance just to support my family."
Song Captou nodded and said, "Okay!"
They were chatting and eating here, and some people at the table next to them who were chatting away were scratching their heads and heads in anxiety.
Because the flavor of the added cake biscuits and beef sauce is so delicious.
One of the well-dressed young men came over and asked tentatively: "Little brother, can we try your home-made pastries and meat sauce?"
Gu Yunxiao looked over with a scrutinizing gaze and said to himself: Do I know you? What a big face!
Sensing Gu Yunxiao's displeasure, the man took out a small silver ingot and handed it over and said, "Little brother, we have no other intentions. The food here is really unpalatable, so please accept it with your kindness."
That's pretty much it!
Gu Yunxiao was very happy. With just one tael of silver, he had made a fortune!
She gave them the remaining piece of biscuit and cake, as well as a few spoonfuls of chili sauce.
The men next to them all felt that they were still unsatisfied with what they had eaten, and those who had not eaten were scratching their heads and ears anxiously.
Everyone murmured for a few words, and then the young man came over and said, "Little brother, there are too many of us and too few things. Can you give us more of these items?"
Gu Yunxiao murmured in his heart: Did he not eat enough?
Seeing him take out another large ingot worth ten taels of silver and hand it over.
Immediately I felt great joy and got ten taels of silver. Of course I wanted this good thing.
She took the ingot and said with a smile: "Please wait a moment!"
He walked out, opened the carriage compartment, walked in, took out two bottles of beef sauce from the space, and took out all the pastries prepared by Yun Lan from the bag.
Suddenly, her hand stopped.
Song Captou knew how big a bag he had taken and took out so many things. How could he explain that he kept eating on the road?
Secretly warn yourself, never lose the big for the small!
She took out a bottle of beef sauce and returned it to the space. Only half of the cake and bread were taken out.
After thinking about it, I couldn't be too evil-minded and wanted to take out five taels of silver from the space to make change.
I found that there were no five taels.
I quickly remembered a saying: Leave a trace in your life so that we can meet each other easily in the future.
She took out the ten taels of silver she had just sent into the space.
Carrying things, he returned to the dining room again.
"I'm sorry, brother. I didn't bring much food, so I can only give you some. It's not much, so I won't take any money."
Several men looked at him strangely, but they didn't expect this little brother to be so broad-minded.
The young man suddenly said awkwardly: "How embarrassing!"
Gu Yunxiao said openly: "A little food is nothing. Maybe when we encounter difficulties, we can ask for your help."
The young man said boldly: "My little brother is so righteous, Zhao admires me!"
Then, he took off a jade pendant from his body and said sincerely: "Little brother, if you have any trouble in the future, come to me. My name is Zhao Changfeng, and I live at No. 56 Taiping Road, Huangcheng."
Gu Yunxiao murmured in his heart: No wonder these people know everything about the emperor's family. These people look very stylish and should be powerful young men in the imperial city.
She took the jade pendant and found that the quality was good.
In my heart, I just gave up some food, but I didn't expect such a big harvest.
This jade pendant is much more valuable than ten taels of silver. I did the right thing.
On the surface, he calmly put away the jade pendant and said respectfully and politely: "Gu has admired Mr. Zhao's reputation for a long time and will definitely visit him if he has the opportunity in the future. This guy is just a small-time head catcher in Pingshan County, and he has reached a high level."
Zhao Changfeng suddenly remembered something and asked eagerly: "Brother Gu, do you sell the recipes for these delicacies? Your family is in Pingshan County, and mine is in the Imperial City. I guarantee that it will not affect your family's business."
Whether it was cakes, biscuits or meat sauce recipes, Gu Yunxiao really didn't take it to heart.
That's why he taught his uncle the secret recipe for making pastries for free.
She said calmly: "If the price is reasonable, I am willing to sell it."
The young man asked tentatively: "How about giving you a thousand taels of silver for the recipe of three ingredients?"
Gu Yunxiao was overjoyed and nodded calmly on the surface and said: "Of course, but what I am giving you to taste is beef sauce. Beef is scarce, so we can only replace it with pig meat. The taste of the meat sauce made in the future may not be as good."
"It doesn't matter, it's settled."
Zhao Changfeng took out a few silver notes from his sleeves, looked at them and handed them over and said: "This is a thousand taels of silver notes. I will send someone over when the time comes. The person sent will take the same jade pendant as a token. You Just be responsible for teaching them.”
Gu Yunxiao hesitated and said, "There's no need to worry about the banknotes. Just give them to me when Brother Zhao sends someone to learn the craft. It's estimated that I won't be able to go back until half a month later."
Zhao Changfeng shook his head and said: "Brother Gu, it will be half a month later. I may not have time to go there by then. You'd better keep the banknotes."
Gu Yunxiao complained in his heart: I don't know whether Mr. Zhao is super rich or just because he likes him, but he gave so much money in advance.
She looked at Zhao Changfeng with admiration and said, "Brother, I won't be polite to you anymore."
The young masters present here were surprised. Who doesn't know the powerful position of the Zhao family?
In their hearts, Mr. Zhao has always been proud and arrogant, but they didn't expect that he would become brothers with a little catcher.
What other remedies should I learn? He actually gave the other party a thousand taels of silver notes in advance. Is this too much regard for the other party?
Everyone was quickly attracted by the delicious food and started to eat it quickly, praising it one after another.
Gu Yunxiao put the banknotes into his cuffs, actually into the space.
I suddenly felt happy. For strangers, the profession of headcatcher was trustworthy.
In fact, it's not just that this profession is trustworthy, but that the other person likes him.
Captain Song looked at her and reminded her in a low voice: "These people have very tough backgrounds, so be careful when dealing with them."
Gu Yunxiao immediately understood that not only he could see it, but Uncle Song could also see it.
She nodded slightly.
