Poor family farming: the sick and weak scholar's wife is very sturdy

"How did you do it?"

Li Yuxuan couldn't help asking.

"My lord, please forgive me, I can only tell you, this is my secret, so I am sorry I can't tell my lord."

Lin Xiao shook his head, expressing that he was unwilling to reveal the secret to others.

Li Yuxuan didn't force it, he nodded and said:

"Since that's the case, I don't force it, but where can I buy the salt you made? After all, I have tasted the ingredients seasoned by it, and I am a little in love with these salts, so I hope you can sell them to me. My king some!"

"It's easy to say. The salt made by the boy is sold in Jin Sanniang's grain and oil store. The price is affordable. If the prince is interested, you can go and have a look."

It would be too pretentious not to draw out Jin Sanniang's grain and oil store when the atmosphere is here.

"Jin Sanniang's grain and oil store?"

Li Yuxuan's eyes lit up suddenly:
"Boy, quickly take me to have a look!"

"Yes!"

Lin Xiao took Li Yufan to Jin Sanniang's grain and oil store at a relaxed pace.

Seeing a mighty group of people walking in, Jin Sanniang rushed to meet them.

She saw Li Yuxuan, who was very well dressed, and then looked at Lin Xiao and Yu Xilin with smiles on their faces, and her eyes lit up immediately.

The person who came here must be a great big shot!

"Sister, this is the prince, why don't you hurry up and pay your respects!"

Lin Xiao winked at Jin Sanniang and said.

"Oh, oh, little girl Jin Sanniang, I have met the prince!"

Jin Sanniang immediately reacted and saluted Li Yuxuan humbly.

"Well, get up!"

Li Yuxuan waved at her:
"I heard that you have this kind of table salt here?"

Li Yupan waved the bamboo tube Lin Xiao gave him in front of Jin Sanniang.

When Jin Sanniang saw it, her eyes lit up immediately, and she quickly responded:

"That's right, that's right, this salt is indeed sold in the little girl's store."

"Take me to have a look!"

"Yes, my lord, please."

Jin Sanniang quickly led the crowd to a warehouse behind the grain and oil store.

The same bamboo tubes in Li Yufan's hands are placed on the upper and lower shelves in the warehouse.

Densely packed, innumerable, and extremely numerous, it looks very spectacular.

"so much?!"

When Li Yufan saw these bamboo tubes, he couldn't help but gasped.

"My lord, there are fifteen hundred catties of salt here."

Jin Sanniang introduced with a smile.

"so much?"

Li Yuxuan's voice was trembling.

With so much high-quality table salt, the price must be high.

If one tael of silver is a catty, there must be a total of 500 taels here!

This amount of money is not a small sum for Li Yufan, who is a relative of the emperor!

In fact, his situation is the same as that of most aristocratic families. Most of the expenses are spent on the servants, guards, and slaves hired by the family.

A year's salary added up is only enough to support him and the hundreds of people in the mansion.

It's not that he didn't think about reducing his staff, but doing so would inevitably cause unnecessary trouble.

After all, in the capital, everyone knows that he is the prince Li Yufan.

His every move was watched and monitored, and all his actions were reported to the great families and the Holy One.

Once there is anything abnormal about him, it is very likely that someone with a heart will catch him in his pigtails, and he will be killed!
"I wonder how much salt the prince wants?"

Jin Sanniang asked with a sweet smile.

"This salt... how do you sell it?"

Li Yuxuan asked hesitantly.

He thought to himself, if it was a tael of silver a catty, then he could afford it.

"These bamboo tubes contain the salt that ordinary people need. The prince is a high-ranking official and noble person, so he should enjoy higher-grade refined salt."

With that said, Jin Sanniang took Li Yufan to a corner of the warehouse, which was filled with exquisite porcelain jars.

"These are the higher-grade salts in your mouth?"

Li Yu's eyes widened in disbelief.

The salt that ordinary people eat is delicious enough, but I didn't expect there to be something more delicious!
"Yes, exactly these."

Jin Sanniang smiled and said:

"These three hundred copper plates cost a catty."

"what?!"

Li Yufan asked with an unbelievable expression on his face.

The price is just too...

It's cheap!
The special royal salt they ate before cost one tael of silver a catty, and it was bitter and astringent, and the taste was not as good as here!
Jin Sanniang seemed to have expected this kind of reaction from Li Yuxuan, she explained:
"These prices are set by me, Brother Lin. He hopes that salt will no longer be a luxury, but a necessity that everyone can afford."

"I see!"

Li Yuxuan suddenly realized, and then he raised his head, looked at Lin Xiao with approval and said:
"Boy, I wonder if you would like to come to this king's palace as a guest? This king feels like old friends at the first sight, and wants to have a long talk with you all night long!"

"The boy is very willing!"

She has already rejected Li Yuxuan once, and she cannot refuse a second time.

Otherwise it would be impolite.

What's more, if Li Yufan was offended by this, even if her whole body was covered with head, she wouldn't be able to cut off her head!
"Hahaha, okay, okay, let's go!"

When Li Yuzhen heard that Lin Xiao agreed to him, he couldn't help laughing, and then led Lin Xiao outside.

"My lord, do you want any more salt?"

Jin Sanniang hurriedly followed behind Li Yuxuan and asked, for fear that he would forget.

"Of course! Send someone to send ten catties of refined salt to the palace, and just ask the butler to settle the bill."

Li Yu ordered without looking back.

It sold ten catties of salt just after opening, and the prince personally came to buy it, which is really awesome, Jin Sanniang thought to herself.

"Yes!"

She immediately sent someone to send ten catties of refined salt to the palace. During the delivery, she deliberately followed Lin Xiao's instructions, blowing, blowing, blowing, it was so lively!
Passers-by saw this scene and speculated about what the prince had bought in Jin Sanniang's grain and oil store, and there was such a big battle.

At this time, Mazi and the others, who played the role of passers-by, recounted what happened in Chen's Tavern with embellishments.

"What?! The second young master of Chen's Tavern lost to a country bumpkin in a cooking competition?!"

"How is this possible?! That kid is the second young master of Chen's Tavern, and he lost?!"

"That's not the point, the point is that the bumpkin was able to defeat the second young master!"

"It's unbelievable, what is the background of this country bumpkin?"

Han Xier saw that the curiosity of the passers-by was aroused, and hurriedly pretended to be a stranger and asked Mazi:
"If you lose the cooking competition, you lose. What does this have to do with the prince going to Jin Sanniang's grain and oil store?"

Han Xi'er said, looking around pretending to be puzzled.

The passers-by also stopped discussing and cast their eyes on Mazi.

"Yes, what does the cooking competition have to do with Jin Sanniang's grain and oil store?"

"What did the prince buy in the store?"

"Tell us quickly, don't be a fool!"

……

"Of course it does!"

Mazi pretended to be mysterious and said:
"You don't know, why did the country bumpkin win? Didn't he use the secret weapon that Jin Sanniang gave him!"
