Chapter 165: Canned Meat


In Lishi County, the Ma and Wang families are among the top businessmen.

In terms of personal connections in Chang'an City, the Wang family is not as good as the Ma family, but in terms of financial resources, the Wang family is currently better than the Ma family. a Luo Yong's biggest creditor now is the Wang family.

Putting aside the initial conflict, they have gotten along pretty well in the past two years.

When the road was built in Xipo Village, the Wang family also pledged to donate a long section of the road.

Later, something happened in Chang'an City.

The local merchants and wealthy households in Lishi County all supported Luo Sanlang, regardless of financial resources.

Still, public opinion gave Luo Yong a lot of support.

Although relatively speaking, Luo Yong is still closer to the Ma family, but this time for the canned business, considering that the Ma family's market is mainly in Chang'an City, and the south is still under development, Luo Yong went to I went to find the Wang family first.

I heard that the Ma family planned to develop the southern market this time, and they also wanted to cooperate with the Wang family.

Last time, Namasiro, Wang Jinhuai and others from the Wang family went south to buy the seeds of Du Zhongshu, but were trapped in the mountains.

During that time, the group supported each other through the difficulties, talked about life and ideals, and also said many heartfelt words, so this After returning once, the relationship between Ma and Wang's family also heated up rapidly.

When Luo Yong went to the Wang family that day, the head of the Wang family was very warm and considerate to the guests, but he never gave a good word about canning production because this guy didn't believe that there was really a way to store fruit.

It won’t rot or go bad for a few months.

A few days later, when Wang Jinhuai came back from the south and heard what his uncle said about this matter, he immediately took it very seriously.

Because of that incident, the Wang family and Naluo Sanlang were always separated by one layer, and they lagged behind the Ma family in everything.

Nowadays, it is rare for Naluo Sanlang to come to his door.

Even if it is a loss-making transaction, the Wang family has no reason to retreat.

Besides, Na Luo Sanlang is really good at making losses.

Wang Jinhuai twitched the corner of his mouth.

Among the five cans, one of his Luo Sanlang's must be one.

He was not afraid.

What did the Wang family fear?

"It's rare to encounter such an opportunity.

Why does uncle want to push it out?

It's just a small canning business.

Even if it loses money, our Wang family can't afford to lose money."

Wang Jinhuai said to his uncle.

Although Wang Jinhuai is only the nephew of the current head of the family, he is also the most capable youngster of their generation.

According to the wishes of several other uncles in the family, he vaguely intends to train him to become the next head of the family, but his cousin still wants to make him the next head of the family.

The son succeeded as the head of the family.

In the past two years, the conflicts within the Wang family have become increasingly fierce.

While the conflict intensified, the Wang family's business in Jiangnan was developing very well.

Wang Jinhuai and his family had also carved out their own place in Jiangnan, that is, in Lishi's hometown, they were still everywhere.

They all have to listen to what his cousin, the head of the family, says.

"Where did you learn this etiquette?

Over there in the south of the Yangtze River, this is how a nephew talks to his uncle."

The head of the family accused Wang Jinhuai of not respecting him enough.

"It's true that I was impatient at the moment.

I hope my uncle won't take offense."

Wang Jinhuai is also a flexible person, so he immediately handed over his hand and apologized.

"How can I blame you since I'm in a hurry?"

Mr.

Wang waved his hand and said, "I'm not just saying that I don't want to do this business.

No, Luo Sanlang also left a few jars for us to take a look at first.

Is this jar really that effective?”

Wang Jinhuai was even more dissatisfied after hearing what he said.

Timing is the most important thing in doing business, not to mention that there is also the Ma family watching eagerly.

Just talking about the business of canned fruits, if the time is missed, it will be done this year.

What canned food?

You have to wait another year for nothing.

"If uncle feels that this matter is not safe enough, why don't you let me do it first?

Several small villages in the south of the Yangtze River where we have purchased silk cloth in the past two years happen to have fruits."

Wang Jinhuai suppressed his dissatisfaction and said to his uncle in a pleasant manner. said.

"Alas, the young man is so impatient that he can't even wait for these few days."

His uncle sighed and said, "Well, just do it if you want to.

If you do it well, it will be a credit to our Wang family."

If he doesn't do well, then Wang Jinhuai's support rate at home will naturally drop.

Wang Jinhuai left the hall and asked his servants to prepare his horse.

When he mounted the horse, he looked back at the Wang family compound behind him, with a trace of ridicule on his lips.

How could he not know the calculations in his cousin's heart?

The calculations were all for the sake of fighting for family wealth and status for his son.

Little did he know that with how well Wang Jinhuai and his sons had been operating in the Jiangnan area in the past few years, they could still continue their business in the south even if they left the Wang Family Courtyard.

Now it is no longer Wang Jinhuai and others who need to be attached to the Wang family compound, but the family needs their capable young people to support and develop together.

It's ridiculous that his cousin hasn't understood this truth yet.

All he can see is the Wang family compound in front of him.

Wang Jinhuai rode to Xipo Village, and Luo Yong received him.

The two had a pleasant conversation, and then the legendary villain and the coffin board decided to start a canning business together.

In exchange for Luo Yong providing them with eucommia gum, the Wang family would send one can to Luo Yong for every five cans of canned fruit they made.

But this is only the first year.

In the second and third years, the Wang family will also produce eucommia gum themselves.

They have also planted a lot of eucommia gum seeds in their manor.

Besides, they don’t have to wait until their own Eucommia saplings grow up.

They may have already found other sources of Eucommia gum.

No matter how much the emperor controls, there will always be some fish that slip through the net.

So in the second and third years, they will have another plan, that is, Luo uses his own money to purchase canned fruits from Wang Huaijin.

Of course, the price must be lower than the market price.

The two parties signed a contract, stating how many cans Wang Huaijin would supply to Luo Yong every year.

The weight and price of each can were clearly stated.

This method of cooperation is very similar to when Luo Yong bought cashmere from Zhao Chen and the others.

At that time, Luo Yong taught Zhao Chen the craft of making sauce, and then asked the other party to trade cashmere with him for two more years.

Even with cashmere prices soaring, the Zhao family still sticks to their original promise.

I hope that this time, the Wang family can keep their agreement.

In the next few days, Wang Jinhuai stayed in Xipo Village to learn how to make canned fruits.

In Lishi County, there are not many fruits during this season.

Except for some wild fruits, the most common one is sour apricot.

This sour apricot is really sour.

If it is eaten directly without cooking, most people cannot bear it.

Luo Yong guessed that people in this era like to steam fruits before eating them, which may be related to the fact that fruits in this era are generally sour and bitter.

Compared with the 21st century, fruits are very scarce at this time, and the varieties are generally not very good.

But if it is only used for canning, the quality requirements for the fruit are not very high, because during the cooking process, the acidic substances in the fruit will be destroyed, so it will not taste too sour.

In order to increase the sweetness of canned sour apricots, they also tried putting sweet dates in the cans, which worked quite well.

If you are in the south where sugar cane is grown, you can directly squeeze some sugar cane juice and cook it together.

The taste will definitely be better than adding sweet dates.

Wang Jinhuai learned this method of making cans and took away all the eucommia gum that Luo Rong had on hand.

Then he went to Xue Ji Pottery Workshop to find Xue Weng, borrowed a descendant of the Xue family from him, and then He ran non-stop to the south, preparing for a big fight.

On the other side, Dr.

Chen and others hurriedly hurriedly arrived at Chang'an City within the time required by the school.

The first thing these people do when they return is to give souvenirs to their classmates and colleagues.

"I wrote to you earlier saying that the Dongpo meat in Xipo Village is delicious.

You didn't mean to say that I was bragging.

Well, I want you to try it this time."

"What, it's been broken for so long.

Why don't you open it yourself and take a look."

"You don't know how to open it, right?

It's okay, I'll help you open it."

"What, you've never seen this way of eating before?"

Soon, these cans from Xipo Village caused quite a stir in Chang'an City.

Many students and teachers are proud to have eaten this kind of can.

It is something that comes from Xipo Village.

It has been kept in the can for several days on this hot day.

Not only is it not bad at all, but the taste is also very good. , compared with the famous wine restaurants and restaurants in Chang'an City, it also has a unique flavor.

"The price is so affordable.

Have you heard that a large portion of braised mutton only costs a few cents at their place?"

“The taste is really good.”

“The money is better there” "I heard that the cold dishes are delicious.

You can buy a big plate for two or three pennies."

The focus of everyone's attention is that it is cheap and delicious.

On this day, His Majesty the Emperor invited several of his ministers to visit the garden, enjoy the scenery, and talk about family matters.

After swimming for a while, everyone sat down in a stone pavilion, and a maid came up with tea and fruit snacks.

While everyone was eating snacks, they were chatting.

During the dinner, someone mentioned the canned meat.

"The canned food from Xipo Village is indeed so delicious," someone asked.

"It's not bad.

My son has always been close to a student who went to Lishi County.

This time he also got a can.

I took a few bites and it tasted really good." someone next to him replied.

"What kind of can is your son holding?"

someone immediately asked.

"It's the Dongpo meat." the other party replied.

"But I only heard its name and didn't know its taste."

One person said regretfully.

"I was lucky enough to taste that canned food two days ago, but it wasn't Dongpo pork."

Another person present spoke.

"Then what kind of meat are you eating?"

"Is it tasty" "Wow, old man, you still have a lot of connections."

"None of my friends are sincere, and they never thought of taking me with them when they eat meat."

"My old friend is pretty good.

He couldn't get a whole can, but he got me a small half one."

"Wow, you are a true friend."

When talking about this canned meat, the atmosphere in the stone pavilion was filled with excitement.

Those who had eaten it were proud of it but those who had not eaten it were envious.

In addition, everyone was also very curious about the preservation method of the canned meat.

"Your Majesty has tasted the canned meat."

Finally, someone remembered that His Majesty the Emperor was here at this time.

"Not at all," the emperor said, "I was wondering when you guys would send me a jar to try, but I haven't waited until now."

Ministers: "That Doctor of Imperial Studies is called Chen Mian" His Majesty the Emperor asked again.

Ministers: "A sneeze" Dr.

Chen outside the palace wall suddenly sneezed.

"What, but I caught a cold?"

asked his friend sitting opposite him.

"Nothing, nothing."

Dr.

Chen picked up the wine cup and took a sip of sake: "If you catch a cold, just drink a few sips of sake to drive away the cold."

"The braised pork in Xipo Village is really delicious."

It was rare that we didn't have to go to work today, so the two friends gathered together to drink and eat meat.

It was very pleasant.

"Open it and eat it."

Dr.

Chen said proudly: "I still have a few cans hidden there." gd1806102:
