Chapter 208; Something bad happened?

"Uncle, this is called steamed buns. It is a food developed by Miss. It is very delicious."

"You'll never guess what this is made of."

Qiu Shuang opened her mouth with a smile.

"Let uncle try it first."

Hearing this, Qiu Shuang picked up a plate with a steamed bun and brought it to Lu Xiu.

Lu Xiu picked one up, looked at it first, then put it under his nose and smelled it.

"There is a fresh aroma of wheat. Isn't it made of wheat?"

"As expected of uncle, yes, this thing is made of wheat."

The Lu family is in the grain business and has been dealing with grain all year round. Although the wheat has changed greatly, the aroma of the wheat is still there.

"Really made of wheat?"

Lu Xiu's eyes widened and he was shocked.

"How did you do it?"

"Uncle, please try it first."

Hearing this, Lu Xiu nodded, took a bite, and then was shocked again.

Good stuff, this is definitely a good stuff.

Lu Yaoyao added a certain amount of sugar to this steamed bun, so it has a slight sweetness.

The fresh aroma of wheat, coupled with the faint sweetness, may not look like just a steamed bun, but it tastes very good.

In Dongzhou, only those nobles and royal families can make exquisite fine grains every day.

Ordinary people mostly eat whole grains.

Although the Lu family are merchants and have some money, the food they eat is only slightly better than that of ordinary people.

It cannot achieve the tender texture of steamed buns at all.

Nowadays, those who work outside the village eat steamed buns almost every meal, and they are not very happy to eat brown rice or anything else.

Anyway, this steamed bun is very hungry, and it tastes much better than brown rice.

Naturally, Lu Yaoyao would not refuse their request. Brown rice is much more expensive than these steamed buns.

"It's delicious. This food is delicious. I'm still very hungry. Yaoyao, how did you make this thing?"

"Let's eat first, and I'll take uncle to see you later."

"good."

Not long after, Qiu Yuyong brought some food.

During this meal, Lu Xiu ate four large steamed buns. If Lu Yaoyao hadn't stopped him, he would have continued.

After lunch, he sat in the living room for a while and drank a cup of tea before Lu Yaoyao came here. Lu Xiu went to the back to see how to make steamed buns.

When Lu Xiu finished reading, everyone was stunned.

It was really made of wheat. In just a moment, he discovered the huge business opportunity in it.

"Yaoyao, can you give this to the Lu family?"

"sure."

For the Lu family, Lu Yaoyao has always tried her best. In other words, the things she created, except for herself at the beginning, were basically considered for the Lu family later on.

She traveled across space and came to Dongzhou as a lonely soul. The only thing she cared about was her mother, and her mother cared most about the Lu family.

After her mother died, she took over her mother's care.

In addition, the Lu family is kind to her and is her only blood relative in this strange world, so she will subconsciously consider many things for the Lu family.

As for the unknown father, she didn't have the slightest sympathy in her heart.

Hate is out of the question, maybe he is already dead.

Lu Xiu was very happy when he heard her answer without hesitation, and felt very emotional in his heart.

This niece is really nice.

Look at how much she has done for the Lu family in this short period of time, well, it's really good.

Later, Lu Xiu asked a lot about the wheat flour, and Lu Yaoyao also knew everything.

The Lu family in Beijing.

When Lu Xiu came back from the farm, he immediately found Mr. Lu and told him everything about the farm.

"Girl Yaoyao has made the right decision. It is indeed inconvenient to go back to Jiangdong now, so let's wait until autumn."

"I will write another letter later, and you will have someone send it back to Jiangdong."

"As for the wheat flour thing you mentioned, we can't do it now."

As soon as the old man finished speaking, Lu Xiu was stunned.

He didn't understand why he couldn't get such a good thing?

"Father."

"I know what you're thinking."

"Although the things are good, they are quite troublesome."

Mr. Lu is aware of the recent developments in the capital. As a grain merchant who has dealt with grain all his life, he can also see clearly what is happening outside.

The court is in urgent need of food, and the noble family has been delaying in releasing food. The purpose is to take this opportunity to earn money from the court.

Once wheat flour appears, it will have a huge impact.

The reaction speed of the court is bound to be slower than that of the major aristocratic families, and then a large part of the wheat on the market will inevitably flow into the pockets of the aristocratic families.

From now on, the Chaotang's situation will be even more dangerous. He doesn't care about the Chaotang, but he cares about themselves. If the Chaotang is not stable, Dongzhou will be unstable, and ordinary people like them will not have a good life.

On the contrary, if the court reacts quickly this time and gains the upper hand, and the food crisis is solved, then the family's calculations will be in vain.

The price of food will inevitably drop, and the family will lose a lot of money by then. Needless to say, they will definitely bear a grudge against the Lu family.

Facing the aristocratic family, they have no choice.

Therefore, they cannot get involved in this matter, and they have to wait until the food crisis is over.

"What's wrong with this?"

Mr. Lu glanced at him and said briefly.

After hearing this, Lu Xiu was so shocked that he broke into a cold sweat and quickly said, "Isn't that Yaoyao very dangerous? No, I have to go to the village again."

With that said, he quickly turned around and walked out.

Over at the farm, Lu Yaoyao was a little surprised when he heard Qiu Shuang say that his uncle was here again.

Not long after, Lu Xiu entered the courtyard again.

"Yaoyao, something serious has happened."

"Um?"

Seeing that his uncle was sweating profusely and speaking in such a hurry, Lu Yaoyao was also surprised.

"What's wrong? Did something happen at home?"

"No, it's not at home, it's you."

Lu Xiu was a little out of breath.

"I?"

Lu Yaoyao pointed at herself, she was fine, what big trouble could happen?

Afterwards, Lu Xiu quickly conveyed all the words that Mr. Lu told him to Lu Yaoyao.

After listening, Lu Yaoyao breathed a sigh of relief, asked Lu Xiu to sit down, and asked Qiu Yu to prepare some things to relieve the heat.

"Uncle, don't worry, I have already thought of these things."

She knew very well what kind of big news the wheat flour would cause when it came out at this time.

But why do we still need to build it and let workers and their families outside the village use it?

To put it bluntly, she just wanted to get this thing out.

As for Mr. Lu's statement that if the court gains the upper hand this time, they will offend the aristocratic family, she is not worried at all.

Her enemy was Gao Yanming, and standing behind Gao Yanming was the Han family.

It is one of the largest aristocratic families in the world. She has heard that these big aristocratic families are all in-laws with each other and belong to an offensive and defensive alliance.

If she wants to touch the Gao family and the Han family, those aristocratic families will definitely not just watch, but will definitely get involved.

Sooner or later they will face each other, so why worry about not getting offended?
