Chapter 269 Seafood Business
She looked tired, having to get up early in the morning to dress up. It was said that she couldn't eat or drink water for fear of having to go to the toilet in the middle of the day.
It was almost noon, and Kong Ci hadn't had a drop of water.
"Mom, here's some water for you." Lu Nianci considerately poured a glass of water for Kong Ci.
"Thank you Nian Nian." The word "Mom" made her feel very happy.
"Congratulations, sister-in-law. You don't have to endure the pain of childbirth and you can have such a lovely daughter. I'm so envious." Kong Ci also heard that Fu Ling always wanted a daughter, but unfortunately all he gave birth to were sons.
Kong Ci smiled and said, "Let's try having another baby. What if it's a girl?"
Fu Ling hurriedly shook his head: "No, no, no, I have a feeling that I am not destined to have a daughter. If I have another child, it will probably be a son. No, three brats are enough. I can't handle any more.
While we were chatting, there was a knock on the door.
Lu Nianci opened the door and saw Xiangyi walk in.
"I knew you were here. ?(????)?"
Xiangyi walked in with a smile and closed the door.
"Why are you coming here if you're not going to eat?" Fu Ling said.
"It hasn't even started yet, come up and take a look at this beautiful lady, she's so pretty, worthy of being me, my skills haven't deteriorated at all."
"It's really beautiful. Look at this dress. Wow, only I can design it."
Kong Ci was amused by the two people and didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "You two are great contributors. Here is some wine. I'll toast you two."
As he said that, he poured three glasses of wine and handed them to the two of them.
Fu Ling and Xiang Yi did not refuse. They clinked their glasses with laughter and then drank it all in one gulp.
"The wine tastes good. It should be even mellower in two months."
Fu Ling nodded. "We still have a few bottles at home. Keep them for later. If you don't have enough, come to me. Sister-in-law, do you want some? I'll get you a bottle later."
Kong Ci waved her hand hurriedly: "No, I'm not good at drinking. As for Beifeng, it's better for men to drink less. You all know what happened to him before, he probably won't be too interested in alcohol."
When she talked about Lu Beifeng's past, she didn't show any unusual emotions, as if she was just narrating an insignificant matter, which made Fu Ling admire her very much.
Downstairs began to bustle. Fu Ling checked the time and said, "It's time, Yibao. Take Nian Nian downstairs to eat first."
Xiangyi took Lu Nianci's hand and walked out the door.
"Sister-in-law, I'll go get you some food. Lock the door and open it when you hear a familiar voice."
"Okay!" Kong Ci chuckled.
There are many guests today, and most of them have been drinking. We should take precautions. If someone is foolish enough to go upstairs, there is a door to stop them.
Lu Beichen saw his wife coming down and went to greet her.
"I'll get some food and go up to eat with my sister-in-law."
"There are a lot of people here. Please wait for me upstairs. I will prepare it and bring it up to you."
It's great to have a caring husband. Fu Ling smiled brightly: "Okay, I'll wait for you at the stairs."
Lu Beichen was very quick. In less than five minutes, he prepared three dishes, a soup and two bowls of rice for her, and put them on a tray and brought them upstairs.
"Wow, so many dishes! You're so nice, husband!" Taking advantage of the fact that no one was around, she secretly kissed his lips.
This made Lu Beichen feel even happier: "Wife, I'm going to get busy."
"Go ahead, husband!" She took the tray from his hand and blew him a kiss.
The man raised the corners of his mouth, turned around and went downstairs.
Fu Ling also raised a smile on her lips. She watched him go down the stairs and disappear around the corner. Then she withdrew her gaze and turned to look for Kong Ci.
"It's my sister-in-law!" Hearing Fu Ling's voice, Kong Ci came up to open the door.
"You're pretty fast."
"I ran into Lu Beichen when I went downstairs. He went to help me prepare food."
Today's meal can be said to be quite rich. Lu Beichen went up the mountain on the pretext of hunting, and came back with 20 pheasants and 25 rabbits. He stayed in the mountain for two days before coming down.
Because there were too many prey, I found a small truck.
Mother Lu was shocked: "How did you get so many? Did you just take out the pheasant nest and the rabbits at once?"
Lu Beichen just smiled without saying anything. In that mountain, he caught 8 pheasants, a total of 15 in total. The rest were raised by Kong Jianpei himself.
There is a fundamental difference between the two species at first glance. The animals produced in the space are more than twice as large as the wild ones outside. There is no other way, Lu Beichen can only switch them all into one type.
The animals he hunted in the mountains were raised in Space Perry.
The recent ingredients were all provided by Lu Beichen. He prepared 50 kilograms of pork and beef. Not only that, he also took out 100 kilograms of fresh seafood and some seasonal vegetables. He used the excuse that they were airlifted from the island.
Mother Lu kept praising him for being smart and being able to think of this.
So the dishes at this wedding were extremely rich, and by the way, more people were introduced to seafood.
There were many politicians who came to attend the wedding. After all, Mr. Lu was the director, and most of the people he invited were old friends, including five or six people in the political circle.
They were very interested in seafood and even asked Mr. Lu during the meal: "Old Lu, where did you get this fresh seafood? It tastes really good."
"My second brother asked someone to airfreight it here from the island."
Everyone's eyes lit up when they heard this: "Air freight? Old Lu, let me discuss it with you. I'll ask your second son to help me get some fresh seafood. Tell me how much it costs when the time comes."
"And me, since we're going to be airlifting anyway, I'd better bring back more at once so we can share it among ourselves."
"Yes, yes, that's right, Lao Lu, you must help us get this done before the New Year." This way, there will be one more dish on the table during the New Year.
Seeing everyone's expectant eyes, Father Lu didn't refuse, nor did he agree immediately: "Well, I'll ask the second son later. If he agrees, I'll talk to you later."
Only after getting Mr. Lu's promise did they give up.
The wedding banquet was a great success for both the host and the guests. Not only Mr. Lu's old friends asked about the food, but also many wealthy families asked about the source of the seafood.
Xiangyi seized the opportunity to explain the origins of these seafood, which aroused the interest of many people.
When they asked about the specific price, they felt it was a great deal. A pound of shrimps cost only 6 or 7 cents, which was delicious and not expensive, cheaper than buying meat. Xiangyi also introduced the nutritional value of seafood to them, which made them feel it was a great deal.
During this meal, Xiangyi took several orders.
When Mr. Lu's old friends heard that they could make reservations here, they immediately became interested and went to Xiangyi to make reservations.
Xiangyi also didn't expect that a wedding banquet would intentionally or unintentionally open the Lanxian Seafood Market.
Selling it under the name of purchasing on behalf of a friend does not count as speculation.
When Fu Ling heard about this, he was secretly surprised, but then he thought it was normal. Seafood does not require receipts, and you can buy it as long as you have money.
