Chapter 682 Future plans

"Brother Ayou, what is this? It looks like a hairy crab, but it's too big."

Ayu saw Qin Huai put the crab on the stone table, so she leaned over to have a look.

【I searched for information, it is called king crab in some similar worlds. 】

"It doesn't have a name, but it's called a sea crab." Qin Huai said, "I did some small things for a colleague before, and he was very sorry. It happened that his family lived in a coastal area, and his family brought some seafood, so he gave it to him." I have one. You don't always say that crab meat is too troublesome to eat, this one is big enough, and the crab legs are enough to fill your stomach."

Ayu thought it was funny: "But this one is too big! I have never seen such a big one. By the way, Huarou's sister-in-law gave me some seafood before, but they were not so big. She said that the seafood is very big. It is difficult to transport live animals, most of them die as soon as they go out to sea, and others have to be broken halfway, so they are rarely seen."

"That's not wrong." Qin Huai said, "That colleague's family is a transshipment envoy, and they also said that parallel imports in rivers and lakes are good luck, but seafood is difficult. One is easy to survive but difficult to catch, and the other is rampant pirates. , Repeated violations of the sea area. Since going to Minghua ten years ago, the Tian family has canceled the tribute of seafood, and only allows the transshipment envoys to sell them along the way if there is a need, so as to gather funds to fill the treasury, and there is no need to deliberately keep them.”

Ayu let out an "ah", a little unbelievable: "But in this way, wouldn't it be a fat job to be in charge of transshipment of seafood? No one knows how much he shipped, how much he lost, how much he sold, As long as he reports the amount acceptable to the household department, won’t he be allowed to ask for it?”

Qin Huai took a deep look at Ayu, never expecting that she could think so much.

If Ayu were a man, his achievements in the court might not be inferior to him.

He doesn't think much about the consequences when doing things, he only puts himself first, while Ayu is based on the record of the world and puts integrity first.

Speaking of it, honest people often end badly, but Ayu is different. She is good at reconciling people's hearts, and she has no intention of harming others, so it is easy to win over the team.

In Qin Huai’s view, Ayu is actually more suitable to be a person of the highest rank. He has emotions, but can handle things rationally, taking the overall situation into consideration, and seeing the pros and cons clearly—

Do you want…

Thinking of that possibility, Qin Huai secretly shook his head again, Ayu definitely doesn't like that kind of life.

A beautiful bird is unwilling to enter a cage even if it is the tallest cage, even if it wants people to appreciate its demeanor.

"Am I wrong?" Seeing Qin Huai shaking his head, Ayu said, "I'm just saying casually based on the information I read before, you are an official in the court, you must see more clearly than me, just be a Listen to the joke."

"Aren't you also an official in the court? Seriously, you are a few ranks older than me as an official. You have the qualifications to go to the court, but I don't." Qin Huai couldn't help laughing, and tapped Ayu's forehead, Said, "You're right, it's just that the things inside are too intricate, and it's not something we can manage now, so we should listen to it."

Ayu picked up the claws of the sea crab and looked at it, thoughtfully: "We don't care about how the transshipment envoy operates in secret, but we can find a way to see if there is any way to keep the seafood alive, like this, We will be able to eat more fresh seafood in the future."

Seafood is very scarce, and they can only buy some dried meat at most, but there is a big difference between dried meat and fresh meat, and the smell of dried meat is heavier. Dachang's habit is to eat fresh products. Once the meat is made into jerky, even pickled vegetables are not considered elegant.

For example, noble people will not eat those things that last for storage, they will look cheap, and they are afraid of being ridiculed by other noble people.

"Ayu, you reminded me." Qin Huai looked at Ayu and said, "Three years later, I want to work in the Transshipment Department and work in the coastal area. What do you think?"

Ayu: "Brother Ayou, don't you want to rectify the transshipment department?"

"Why don't you say that I want to take a bite of fat?"

"I know, you won't." Ayu said firmly, the little girl raised her head with a very trusting look.

Qin Huai: "Why? I'm in your heart, just like this?"

"No, isn't your family richer than ours? I don't need money, and you certainly don't." Ayu said clearly, "What the world pursues is nothing but what you don't have. If you have it, you won’t miss it.”

There is no need to cause a show.

Qin Huai: "..." It's because I'm out of shape.

The two of them had an analysis of what happened three years later. Qin Huai said that he would go, and Ayu wondered whether she should go or not. She is currently aiming at a girls' academy and has not changed her wish yet.

Qin Huai didn't force her to pull her. The two of them are still young, so naturally they can't talk about the relationship between their children.

Not to mention mutual achievement, at least not to hold each other back.

After the two talked about this, and then talked about Princess Ruyi, Qin Huai said: "Princess Ruyi went to the astrologer, and it turned out to be an oolong. She heard from somewhere that the Tian family wanted to assign her to the young man in Yongguo's mansion. Juncai, she didn't know how to find out the news. She thought that the person was me, and she heard that I already had a fiancée, so she went to the astrology department to trouble you. I have already made an agreement with my grandfather and the others, and Princess Ruyi will not come again in the future .”

"In this way, Princess Ruyi doesn't know who you are at all, and she hasn't met you. She just came here to cause trouble when she heard that you were accused of marrying her?" Seeing Qin Huai nodding, Ayu's expression was indescribable.

How should I put it, this Princess Ruyi is not only stupid, she is simply clueless.

Since the marriage was bestowed by the heavenly family, even if she was a fake princess to deal with, she would never treat her so perfunctorily and harshly. How could she find a fiancée? Doesn't that make the three families lose face, and the Tian family is not stupid, how could they act like this?

Not only did she not think about it, but she was also impulsive and irritable. This matter must have been instigated by someone who cared, but she hadn't reacted yet.

Since growing up, Ayu has discovered that some people are stupid, but they are nice and don't bother others. Such people are worthy of liking. And some people are not only stupid, but also bad, even if they are bad, they don't know how to plan, and let others see jokes for nothing, which is too unpleasant!

"Forget it, don't waste time for irrelevant people." Ayu saw that the glutinous rice **** had also walked to the Little Imperial Garden, and asked, "Brother Ayou, are you going back to Yongguo Duke's Mansion today, or are you staying at the Huangcheng Post? "

After finishing his affairs in the Hanlin Academy, Qin Huai often went to the academy to borrow ancient books, and sometimes stayed in the post after a delay.

"Let's go to Sansi Street." Qin Huai glanced at the sea crab, "The cook in your family is very skilled. I want to try whether the sea crab he cooks is authentic."

Ayu: "Okay, Brother Lu, too?"

Because Lu Yu is now the role of a book boy, Ayu didn't know how to call him. It would be rude to call him by his full name, and it was too intimate to call him, so he simply called him Brother Lu.

There are things for Qin Huai and the others on weekdays, and they will also send a copy to him.

Qin Huai glanced at Chi Jia, and Chi Jia said: "Lu Yu has a family banquet today, and he has already returned to the mansion ahead of time, I'm afraid he won't be able to make it."

"That's a pity."

"Well, let's go."

After a few people left, Lu Yu ran to Xiaoyu Garden panting with a stack of books, but only saw Liu Fang who was pruning flower branches.

He hurriedly asked: "This sister, have the Commander and our Qin editor left?"

Liufang raised her eyes: "Ah, they've been gone for a while, are you the book boy beside Qin Bianzhuan? I almost forgot, the editor left something for you, saying that I want you to take it back to eat."

As she spoke, Liu Fang took out a small bamboo basket from the nearby bushes, covered with a cloth.

Lu Yu was confused, put down the book and took a look, there was a bunch of golden feet inside!

It's all the legs of sea crabs, which are much bigger than ordinary crab claws.

"Your family compiled and said that you can take it home and steam it, stir-fry it, dry it, or deep-fry it, depending on your preference."

Lu Yu: "..."

He understood, he was abandoned, no wonder he was asked to collect some books before leaving.

Woohoo.

He can't eat much, as for the greedy one!
