Traveling through time with a house, I teach people all over the country how to farm

Chapter 268 The price in Beijing is higher

Zheng Sisi did not ask about the subsequent sale of threshers and windmills, and left everything to the third prince to handle.

Zheng Sisi received a satisfactory reward today. She no longer has to kneel when meeting people in the future. This is what she has always wanted.

After leaving the palace, the third prince still had a lot of things to deal with, so Zheng Sisi went her separate ways from him.

Zheng Sisi asked Ye Hu to drive the carriage directly to the reception building.

In the restaurant, the red lobsters had been received yesterday. Shopkeeper Cui was very happy to see several baskets of ingredients being carried down, because when the guards delivered them, they said that the county lady had specially gone to the Weishui River area to find the ingredients.

But when they opened the lid of the basket, the cooks in the kitchen saw that it was full of insects, densely packed with them, waving a pair of pliers to protest against them. Everyone was frightened and a few of the timid ones screamed.

The guards explained it several times before everyone believed it, but they didn't know how to deal with it, so they just put it aside and waited for the county lord to come.

Zheng Sisi entered the palace early this morning, and she was not allowed to bring her maid with her, so Ye Hu and Meigui were the only ones waiting at the palace gate, while everyone else came to the reception building to help.

Dongzhi instructed everyone to help process the red crayfish, which made the kitchen helpers feel nervous. After Dongzhi and his team processed several shrimps, everyone gradually accepted the method.

When Zheng Sisi arrived at the kitchen, two baskets of red crayfish had already been cleaned.

Zheng Sisi took direct action and gathered several master chefs together to learn how to make delicious red crayfish.

Heat the oil, fry the shrimp, drain the oil, and set aside. Zheng Sisi explained as she did it. Then she handed over the task of frying the shrimp.

Zheng Sisi went to the spice rack and selected the ingredients she needed, then started a pot and began to make the delicious red crayfish. When the pot of red soup and shrimps were put into the basin, everyone in the kitchen couldn't believe it.

Such a scary insect can really be cooked and it smells so good. Although I haven’t eaten it yet, it smells delicious.

Zheng Sisi washed her hands and told everyone: "To eat red crayfish, just grab them with your hands."

Then he demonstrated one: "You guys eat it too, and you can make it by eating what it tastes like."

Seeing that the county lady was enjoying the meal, everyone put aside their concerns and took a shrimp to start peeling it.

"Mm, it's delicious. I didn't expect it to look so scary and have such a hard shell, but taste so tender."

"Yeah! And this way of eating it with your hands is also very unique."

"Don't lick your hands because it tastes so good."

"Hahaha!"

"Hahaha!"

"........."

There was laughter in the kitchen.

Zheng Sisi asked: "Dongzhi, have you brought the soap?"

Dongzhi replied: "County Lady, I have brought it."

Zheng Sisi: "Okay, I'll take it out for everyone to wash their hands with later."

Dongzhi responded: "Okay, County Master."

Zheng Sisi filled a small bowl with another portion and said to the chefs, "Follow the steps I taught you just now and each of you make a portion for tasting. The one who makes the best taste will make the flavored red lobster in the future."

Several people responded in unison: "Okay, County Master."

Zheng Sisi took one and went to the front desk to find Manager Cui.

After eating it, Shopkeeper Cui and his staff were also amazed: "I didn't expect this bug to be so delicious. County Lady, you can sell it today."

Zheng Sisi nodded: "Okay, the kitchen is ready, and everyone has eaten. When the guests order this dish, you need to teach them how to eat it. After they are done eating, you also need to prepare soap, water, and cloths for washing their hands. The soap will be distributed to everyone on the winter solstice."

The guys all said, "Okay, County Master."

Shopkeeper Cui asked, "County Lady, what is the price of this branded red lobster?"

Zheng Sisi asked: "Shopkeeper Cui, what price do you think should be set?"

Shopkeeper Cui thought for a while and said, "How about one tael of silver per portion?"

Zheng Sisi said: "In Qingshui County, it's one tael of silver per serving."

Shopkeeper Cui said, "That won't work. The price in the capital is higher, one tael and five cents. What do you think, county lady?"

Zheng Sisi thought: "That's fine. There is also a braised shrimp and garlic shrimp in the back. The price can be a little higher."

Shopkeeper Cui: "Okay, County Lady, I'll put the cards on now, and the guests will be here soon."

Zheng Sisi looked at her watch. It was almost eleven o'clock and it was time for guests to come in.
