Chapter 28: Pulling Cao Cao and Yuan Shao to do business

Half a month later, everyone in the 100-person team made amazing progress.

The effect of queue training has already given them the quality of a soldier.

In terms of physical fitness, everyone has made great progress.

Not to mention those soldiers, even Lu Bu felt that he had made some progress.

Next, Lu Bu gave the soldiers a day off, while Lu Bu returned to the East Mansion of Cai’s Mansion.

After returning to Cai’s Mansion, Cai Da and his servants respectfully welcomed Lu Bu in.

It turned out that all the servants Cai Yan gave to Lu Bu were changed to the surname Cai, and their names were also arranged like Cai Da and Cai Er.

In the yard, Lu Bu asked Cai Da: "Cai Da, how did you do what I arranged?"

Cai Da said respectfully: "Master, the villains are all made according to your instructions, and the finished products are placed in the warehouse. You might as well go and see them yourself!"

After hearing Cai Dade's reward, Lu Bu couldn't help but nod.

Before going to work at Huben Camp, Lu Bu arranged for Cai Da to buy a lot of sesame seeds and some soybeans, and asked Cai Da and the others to deal with the sesame seeds and soybeans strictly as they had to tell them.

If nothing unexpected happens, Lu Bu’s first plan to make money must be completed from these sesame seeds.

Lu Bu said to Cai Da: "Don't call me master in the future, just call me Master Lu! Let's go and accompany me to see what are you doing?"

Cai Da responded, and then followed Lu Bu to the warehouse.

After entering the warehouse, Lu Bu found a large wooden barrel piled up in the warehouse.

Open the lid of the bucket, and it was filled with fragrant sesame oil.

That's right, what Lu Bu asked Cai Da and the others to do was to use sesame oil to squeeze oil.

In fact, there are many things that can be squeezed into oil, such as sesame, soybeans, rapeseed, etc.

However, the sesame oil extraction process is relatively simple, and the oil yield of sesame is also relatively high.

That's why Lu Bu decided to use sesame oil to squeeze.

Here, Lu Bu uses the oil-producing method of grinding sesame oil. He puts sesame seeds on the grind and grinds it, and then puts this sauce in pure water. Using the principle of different specific gravity of water and oil, the sesame oil floats to the upper layer.

This method of taking oil is extremely simple. If you use soybeans, there are currently no tools for taking oil.

If you use the local method alone, the oil yield rate is extremely low and the cost is too high and the gain is not worth the loss.

The purpose of Lu Bu asking Cai Da to buy soybeans is to use soybeans to grow bean sprouts.

The bean sprouts were born eight or nine days ago by Lu Bu. Then Lu Bu went to see the bean sprouts produced by Cai Da and the others, which happened to be just right.

Well, that's all ready.

Lu Bu took out the money and asked Cai Da to go out to buy some ingredients, then cooked himself, cooked eight side dishes, and then put the dishes on the steamer to warm them. Lu Bu went out.

Lu Bu wandered around the street for a long time and finally saw Cao Cao and Yuan Shao in Qifeng Tower.

Seeing the two, Lu Bu couldn't help but be overjoyed and quickly met.

"Brother Meng De, Brother Benchu, it turns out that you are here and have not seen each other for ten days, I miss you very much!"

Seeing Lu Bu, Yuan Shao laughed and stood up to greet Lu Bu.

As soon as he saw Lu Bu, Cao Cao remembered that Lu Bu had made a bet to cheat him. It would be strange if he was angry.

Cao Cao snorted, ignored Lu Bu, and turned his head directly.

Yuan Shao asked with a smile: "Fengxian, do you know what you have to do with us?"

Lu Bu smiled and said, "I'm looking for two brothers today because I found some delicious dishes today. It's really unparalleled in the world. I specially invited the two brothers to go and taste it!"

After hearing Lu Bu's words, Yuan Shao couldn't help but ask, "What delicious food can you dare to say that it is unparalleled in the world? Don't exaggerate it in Fengxian!"

Lu Bu smiled and said, "There is no exaggeration. You will know if you go and taste it for a few."

Yuan Shao immediately said with joy: "That's so great. If it's so delicious, I really have to go and see it! Meng De, why don't you leave quickly?"

Cao Cao turned his head and snorted coldly, saying, "You go, I won't go!"

Lu Bu smiled slightly, stepped forward and saluted Cao Cao and said, "Your brother is still angry with me? This time I came here to apologize to you. I hope you don't blame me."

Yuan Shao laughed and pulled Cao Cao up and said, "Okay, OK, Fengxian has apologized to you. If you are still angry, you would be too petty."

Cao Cao then stood up and walked out with Lu Bu and Yuan Shao.

Soon he arrived in Cai's mansion. Lu Bu took out the eight side dishes and put them on the table. Then he ordered someone to pour wine for Cao Cao and Dong Zhuo, and said to the two: "This is the delicious delicacy I found. The two brothers will know at one time."

Cao Cao and Yuan Shao both looked at these eight dishes curiously, and when they looked, they found that they were cooking methods that they had never seen before.

There was a dish that they had never even seen before.

However, these eight dishes exuded an attractive fragrance, making people salivate when they smelled.

The two of them picked up the chopsticks and couldn't help but taste it, but they couldn't stop.

"Well, it's delicious, it's really delicious!"

"It's really a rare delicacy. Fengxian didn't lie to us!"

"Bongxian, it's really delicious! How did you get these delicacies?"

Lu Bu smiled and said, "Two brothers, let's have a drink first. After the wine, let's talk about it."

After drinking and eating, Yuan Shao couldn't wait to ask this question again.

Lu Bu did not answer Yuan Shao’s question, but asked back: “The two brothers think, how does the taste of these dishes compare to Qifenglou?”

Yuan Shao said seriously: "The taste of Qifenglou is far worse than the taste of these dishes you have in Fengxian, and there is no way to compare."

Lu Bu continued: "How much money can Qifenglou earn in a day?"

Yuan Shao couldn't help but say enviously: "It can be said that he is making money every day!"

Lu Bu asked again: "Two brothers, look, my dishes taste much better than Qifenglou. If our brothers open a restaurant, will we make more money than Qifenglou?"

After hearing Lu Bu's words, not only Yuan Shao, but also Cao Cao's eyes lit up.

That's right, if they open a restaurant, they would definitely make a fortune with such good dishes.

Yuan Shao couldn't help but say in surprise: "Yes, our brothers can definitely make a big profit when opening a restaurant!"

"Well, it would cost at least 20,000 taels of silver to open a restaurant of Qifenglou in Luoyang City. In this way, three of us brothers will take out 7,000 taels of silver to each, and the funds will be almost solved. What do you think?"

Cao Cao had no objection, and taking out 7,000 taels of silver was not a big deal for him.

But Lu Bu said embarrassedly: "I don't have so much money in my hands."
