Chapter 7 Ancestor Appearance
Seeing that Shen Dayao accepted the stuffing of soup dumplings, Wang Anran smiled, very righteous and very imposing as Mengchangjun. He said, "Mr. Lizheng, since you can handle enough buns, I can't be stingy. To be honest, if I make my Wang fresh soup dumplings, if I open a small shop or sell them to a large restaurant in Chang'an, it will definitely be a thousand gold coins. Do you admit this?"
Shen Dawei's eyes turned around. He was both a rural farmer and a businessman. He naturally understood the value of the method of making soup dumplings. He heard what Wang Anran said, as if he wanted to sell the production method to himself. The price should be much cheaper, but it is estimated that no matter how cheap it is, it will cost more than a hundred yuan. His family doesn't have that much cash, so he has to piece it together.
Shen Dayao was very focused and was thinking about how much money he should pay, but Hu Qiaoshou would not think so much. He said, "That's natural. If you take this bun in a big restaurant in Chang'an as the capital for investment, it would be absolutely impossible to lose a thousand guan. Maybe it can be a tribute and sent to the palace for the emperor to taste it!"
One thousand guan! Shen Dayao felt dizzy. He could not afford the money no matter what. Even if he sold the house and land, he would definitely not be able to afford such a large amount of money. He could not even afford five hundred guan.
Shen Dayao said: "Old Hu, you can't say that. The price is in Chang'an, not in our Liangzhou. In the territory of Liangzhou, even if An Ran sells 500 stale, no one can get it!"
Hu Qiaoshou had no words, but the two guys next to him nodded together. Is the bun fresh? Fresh! Is it delicious? Tasty! But if you buy the production method for 500 guan, even the governor of Liangzhou will feel distressed, let alone ordinary people.
Wang Anran took a long breath and slowly swallowed it, saying, "I gave it to Li Zheng for free when making this fresh soup bun, how to make ingredients. First, I thank you for your care for my Wang family over the years. Second, if I burn some porcelain at your house, don't worry about my money. Of course, I just burn some small items. I don't do porcelain business, so you don't have to worry about me asking for bulk porcelain, it's just a little trouble."
Halfway through his words, Shen Dawei was stunned, his breathing became thicker, and his nostrils expanded. When Wang Anran finished speaking, his face turned red like he was drunk, and his eyes were red, excited!
Not only was he excited, but even Hu Qiaoshou excited. He shouted: "Brother Wang, you are not kidding. This recipe is worth hundreds of trump cards even in Liangzhou, so you will give it for nothing?"
Wang Anran thought to himself: "I don't think I'll give it away for nothing, but when I made the buns just now, I was at Shen Dayao's house. It was the ingredients prepared by Shen Jue's trick. The buns I made can't be hidden at all. I might as well give favors. As long as Shen Dayao feels that he owes me, everything will be easy to do in the future. Hundreds of coins... Alas, even if I really offer this price, someone will have to buy them. Anyway, I can't get the money, so why bother to worry about it!"
After slapping his chest, Wang Anran said loudly: "I, Wang, are a person with great ambitions. How can I care about this mere verbal meal? I say I give it for free, and I don't stop anyone!"
Shen Dayao hugged Wang Anran and lifted him up with force, shouting: "Boy Anran, I read you right, you are such a good boy!"
Hu Qiao was stunned, and the two guys muttered, hundreds of guan, hundreds of guan... They kept muttering, the money they could not make in their entire lives was sent out by Wang Anran. Who could believe this kind of thing?
Wang Anran struggled down. He was not used to being hugged by a man. He was still an old man who was not fresh at all. Of course, it would be impossible for a young handsome man to hug him like this.
Wang Anran said: "Master Lizheng, Dad Shen, I will call you Dad Shen in the future. It is even bigger than Da, but Dad. Now you go home and ask Sister Juezhi, how to make fresh soup dumplings, I have already handed them over to her!"
Shen Dayao became even more excited, as if he had drunk a jar of old wine, and kept saying, "Okay, I'll go back now. Boy An Ran, you are really particular about doing things. You can call me Shen Dada in the future. I like it, I like it!" He ran home with his legs and feet, and he didn't look like an older person at all.
Hu Qiao looked at Wang Anran with her hands and shook her head repeatedly. This child was a little stupid. She didn't look so smart. She said that she would send it out and then send it. Isn't this a prodigal son? The two guys behind him also felt the same way, and they felt that Wang Anran was too prodigal. Why didn't he see it before? How did his parents raise him such a prodigal person? What did he feed him?
Shen Dayao left, and Wang Anran took out the drawings again and said, "Master Hu, look at this picture again and I will tell you, and see if you can do it."
Hu Qiao took the drawings and looked carefully several times. After thinking for a while, she shook her head and said, "I can't understand, what is this for?"
What is it for? Even if I tell you and teach you step by step, you still won’t know how to use it. Wang Anran yelled twice and said, “It’s just a decoration, it’s useless, but the requirements are quite high!” He said the request.
After hearing this, Hu Qiaoshou said, "The inside and outside are fully glazed, and it must be sealed. This is not the same as the spice bottle used by a wealthy family in Chang'an. This kind of porcelain is easy to say, but it is troublesome to make. I can't make it in less than ten days or half a month!"
After saying that, Hu Qiao looked up at Wang Anran. He just thought that Wang Anran was a prodigal son, and he gave away hundreds of coins of things for free, but in just a blink of an eye, he didn't think so. If the things on this drawing were regarded as a perfume bottle, it would be obviously an extremely complicated spice bottle. If it was based on the market price, it would be afraid of hundreds of coins. If it was sold in Changan, it might take thousands of coins. This Anran boy was not a prodigal man, and his abacus was very good!
Wang Anran was relieved. As long as he could make it, it didn't matter anything else. As long as the distillation utensil was made, he could make essential oils immediately.
But Hu Qiaoshou said again: "Brother Wang, listen to me, I can make this thing. In Chang'an, any qualified porcelain-burning master can do it. But the problem is that this thing is made, but it is priceless. Everyone knows it is valuable, but who can buy it? Who can use this bottle with spices? So even if there are many people who can make it, no one can do it. Alas, this can't be called a bottle. This style is too strange!"
According to the market price of spice bottles, this thing may be worth hundreds of guan, or even thousands of guan in Chang'an. But what is the use of things that no one buys, even if they are priced? Merchants will not be able to make things that cannot be sold, and it is impossible to waste their efforts.
I am lonely, I am lonely, no one understands me... It's because I am standing at the top of the times, Wang Anran finally understood the feeling of Dugu Qiubai, loneliness, loneliness!
Wang Anran said: "I didn't plan to sell it, I just made it fun. If you make it Master Hu, I will treat you to delicious food. It's no worse than that fresh soup bun. You must like it!"
Hu Qiao's eyes lit up and she kept saying, "Sheng, that's definitely done!" After a pause, she said, "But I can't do other work at least half a month. You, Da Da Shen, wouldn't say anything?" He said, "No wonder you gave him the method of making fresh soup buns. If you don't give them, just begging him to stop working to make this for you, and he won't agree to kill him. You have to go to the porcelain kiln in the city to make it. Just the firing fee can make your house for sale!"
Wang Anran laughed dryly, said nothing else, but just gave a few instructions, urging Hu Qiaoshou to make it quickly and not waste time, so he went home.
Hu Qiao looked at his back, shook his head first, then nodded, then shook his head again, and finally nodded again, his head shaking constantly, making the two guys dizzy.
A guy asked, "Master Hu, what is this?"
Without thinking, Hu Qiaoshou waved the drawings in his hand, and shouted loudly, deeply, insightfully and vigorously: "I don't know!"
The two guys looked at each other, then nodded at the same time, and said in unison: "The heroes have similar views, and we don't know either!"
For the first time I encountered such a business, the master who burned porcelain did not know what it was burning. It was really strange!
When Wang Anran returned home, she saw Shen Dayao sitting in her yard, with Miss Shen accompanying her and talking to Wang Duosun and Feng.
Seeing him come back, Shen Dayao immediately said, "An Ran, where did your prescription come from? Will your condition worsen after taking it?"
Wang Anran said: "You can just go to the city to hire a doctor to see it. If you can use it, you won't lose anything if you don't need it. By the way, Master Hu wants to make porcelain for me, and it will take half a month. Do you feel sorry for this period of shutdown?"
Shen Dayao grinned and asked Hu Qiao to make money for him. But if he stopped working for Wang Anran for half a month, then Wang Anran would be the boss! But then he thought that he would not suffer any loss. The method of making fresh soup dumplings, let alone half a month, even if it was stopped for the first half of the year, he would not lose. What's more, he got a prescription and owed Wang Anran too much favor, so he nodded and agreed, said a few words of thanks, and said that he would cover the Wang family in the future, so he took Miss Shen home.
After the guest left, Feng asked: "Anran, why do you know how to prescribe the medicine again? What's the matter with fresh soup buns?"
Wang Anran sat down and sighed: "The appearance of our ancestors of the Wang family really made me go to the heavenly court in a coma and learned a lot. It would be fine if you don't believe me, but if you don't believe in my ancestors, then I can't do anything!"
Wang Duosun said in surprise: "It is really my ancestor's appearance? Could it be that because of the fragrance I poured on, I finally moved my ancestors and brought welfare to An Ran?"
Feng's family is skeptical, she believes because she is superstitious and believes in the saying that the ancestors appear, she is skeptical because... She said: "It is not necessarily the ancestor of the Wang family, but maybe it is my Feng family. If the ancestors of your Wang family appeared, why did they appear for so many years? Only the ancestors of my Feng family will finish their own affairs and then take care of the Wang family's affairs, so they will be a little late!"
Wang Anran immediately nodded and said, "It makes sense. Maybe the two ancestors of the families will appear together at the same time!"
Tubao stood aside, holding her two trumpet braids for a long time, and she was unwilling to be lonely and said loudly: "It makes sense, it's the ancestors who have appeared. Let's celebrate. I'll eat fresh soup buns tonight!"
The three Wang family said in unison: "You know how to eat!"
"I'm hungry. I'm growing up. If you want to be a good maid, you have to eat more!" Tubao said in a low voice.
