Who understands? I took the library with me to farm

Chapter 8 Glass Pearl Milk Tea Drink

"Hey, look at what you said and the magnificence of this young man, I'm afraid he is not a scholar in the town, right? Please forgive me for being ignorant. It is really my knowledge that is shallow. I really didn't mean to deceive."

Shopkeeper Tao bowed and started public relations urgently.

"Do you think this will work? You can drink the wine you bring and the meal will be waived. Just treat it as a repeat customer."

Before He Miao could agree, shopkeeper Tao glared at the waiter behind him and said, "Stop just standing there stupidly. Go get some cups!"

……

The three ladies had a hearty meal without paying out half a coin.

When we were almost finished eating, shopkeeper Tao came over to see us off again.

In front of him, He Miao poured the milk tea into the cup slowly and began to sip it slowly.

Feng Yuanlang was choking after eating, so he raised his glass and drank it all in one gulp: "Ah! It tastes so good! There are even noodle beads in it!"

Shopkeeper Tao was an old gourmet, and when he saw the novel color of the tea and when Feng Yuanlang praised it, he couldn't help but feel shaken in his heart.

He asked with a shy face: "Little lady, I dare to ask, what kind of tea is this? I have never seen it before. Why does it smell so sweet?"

"Well, I don't blame the shopkeeper for not recognizing it. This is my homemade glazed pearl milk tea with a secret recipe passed down from my ancestors. You can't drink it anywhere else."

An idea flashed in He Miao's mind, and a business opportunity suddenly occurred, so he didn't hide it and introduced it happily.

"What? Are you interested? Want to try it? To be honest, my tea is very strange. If it is served in glassware, it will taste even more special!"

He Miao's few words aroused shopkeeper Tao's greed.

"That's a great feeling, Goudanzi, get a cup quickly! I want the glass cup on the top of the cabinet!"

Shopkeeper Tao greeted with a happy face.

After a moment, the waiter, whose real name was revealed, presented two crystal-clear glass cups with a downcast look on his face.

He Miao's heart: Haha, no wonder he is called Goudanzi, a guy who looks down on others.

In Dayan, colored glaze is more precious than jade, and this set in the shop is regarded as the "treasure of the shop". If it weren't for the nobles and nobles coming to have a banquet, they would definitely not bring it out.

Of course, this small restaurant has never hosted a big shot since it opened, so this is the first time these two cups have been "shown".

Shopkeeper Tao carefully picked up the cup. The glass cup was filled with brilliance and magnificent color.

Through the half-brown and half-white fluid it contained, there were a few reddish-brown translucent balls at the bottom of the cup, really like pearls.

With his business acumen, Shopkeeper Tao had a hunch that this thing would sell for a good price.

After taking a sip, the fat on the plate on his big face trembled instantly. He squinted his mung bean eyes and praised with a smile: "Good! The tea soup is sweet and bitter, and the soup balls are soft and chewy, good! Good stuff!"

He Miao was not surprised at all, no one was there! Absolutely no one can resist the temptation of milk tea!
  "My dear lady, this tea tastes really unique and interesting. It's really interesting. Can you supply this tea specifically for my restaurant in the future? Don't worry, the price is negotiable!"

This was what He Miao wanted, but what she wanted to sell was milk tea recipes.

She couldn't do the job of long-term supply. She had no raw materials, no time, no manpower, and no energy. Not to mention that it would take half an hour at the fastest from the village to the town. Mass production of milk tea would affect the elastic taste of the pearls.

Although the seller can't make any later profits, he can do it once and for all, so he doesn't have to worry about it.

"Well, since Shopkeeper Tao loves this tea so sincerely, and I am also a happy person, the recipe for making tea belongs to you. You can make as many as you want!" He Miao waved his hand generously, "Only if your bid is sincere enough. !”

Mrs. Feng Liu didn't say anything for a long time. At this time, she silently glanced at her daughter-in-law, as if asking: Is this possible? He Miao nodded slightly, signaling her mother-in-law to feel relieved.

Shopkeeper Tao didn't expect this young lady to be so heroic. She rubbed her hands and made a "Five Finger Mountain" and said, "Young lady is so bright. I'll pay you five taels of silver, okay?" Five taels of silver!

Even if Mrs. Feng Liu lived to such an old age, she had never earned five taels of silver so easily! She was so surprised that her jaw almost dropped, and she could hardly control herself from blurting out: "That's great!"

But she was very discerning. Seeing that her daughter-in-law was calm and did not speak, she naturally kept her mouth shut.

Shopkeeper Tao asked again tentatively: "Baliang, is this okay?"

"Twenty taels!" He Miao called the price crisply.

"Ten taels, no more, our small shop..." Shopkeeper Tao showed weakness.

"Seventeen taels!" He Miao didn't even raise his eyes. .

"Thirteen taels! Make friends, make friends." Shopkeeper Tao tightened his grip on the money bag around his waist.

"Fifteen taels, I'll leave if you don't buy it." He Miao refused to let go and stood up to leave without giving the other party any chance to breathe.

"No, no, it's a deal at fifteen taels!" Shopkeeper Tao finally made up his mind, and the knuckles of his fingers turned white.

He Miao smiled brightly: "Okay! Bring me a pen and paper, I said, you write."

In order to show how difficult and complicated it is to make this traditional tea drink, she deliberately went around and added many unfounded details.

Shopkeeper Tao was confused when he heard this, and he just immersed himself in writing down various raw materials and complicated procedures.

In the end, by handing over money with one hand and prescriptions with the other, He Miao successfully earned his first pot of gold after traveling through time.

"Congratulations to Shopkeeper Tao, your restaurant will have unique characteristics from now on."

"We are all happy together. If there is another good recipe in the future, be sure to think of our restaurant!"

He Miao and the other three had walked a long way, but Shopkeeper Tao was still standing at the door, reluctantly seeing each other off.

……

"Miao'er, you are so awesome. Your mother and I really had a knife in the butt today - my eyes were opened!" Mrs. Feng Liu hugged her daughter-in-law's arm with joy.

You know, Feng Qinkui is one of the best blacksmiths. He and Feng Dazhuang worked in the shop day and night, and earned thirty or forty taels of silver throughout the year. He was considered a wealthy family in the village.

As soon as He Miao took action and tinkered with a tea recipe, he made enough money to cover half a year, which is impressive.

"Mom, we can sell more prescriptions if we have the opportunity in the future. By the way, this money..." He Miao didn't know the rules of the Feng family and wanted to find out first.

Mrs. Feng Liu took He Miao's hand holding the money bag, looked around, and whispered: "Put this money away quickly. There are many people in the town and it is chaotic. Don't let the thieves touch it."

"After you go home, find a locked box and keep it for yourself. Don't tell anyone else. Keep it. When your father and I are a hundred years from now, you and Yuen Long will be able to live a better life."

Mrs. Feng Liu is indeed an enlightened mother-in-law who always considers her children and does not exploit them.

He Miao knew what was going on, and she would be more relaxed when getting along with her mother-in-law in the future, without being too secretive.

After struggling for a long time, it was already past noon.

Feng Liu first went to the embroidery shop she frequented and sold some embroidered pillow covers made by Chen Xiu'e. Then she chose an open space at the corner of the street, put down the egg basket, and the three of them sat down to the side, waiting for the buyer.

　According to the author's research, there were drinks similar to milk tea in ancient times. As for why our shopkeeper Tao is willing to pay for Xiaomiao's milk tea, I guess it's because Xiaomiao is too eloquent and exaggerates. Hahaha, Boss Tao does this kind of business. It’s dangerous!
