Chapter 909 - Chapter 909 Chapter 909 A Blessing in Disguise
Chapter 909: Chapter 909: A Blessing in Disguise Chapter 909: Chapter 909: A Blessing in Disguise “Lady Su, you saved both me and the child in my womb; this was but a trifling matter! There’s no need for you to take it to heart,” said the Consort of Prince Rui, yet Su Yunjin still felt a surge of gratitude towards her. After Consort Rui promised to help Su Yunjin, it was only a day later that the entire market town buzzed with the news–proclaimed by the Prince Qi Residence–that Zuixiang Restaurant was personally gifted a plaque by the Dowager Consort of the Prince Qi Residence. From then on, anyone who dared to cross Zuixiang Restaurant was disrespecting the Prince Qi Residence.
Disrespect towards the Wang Residence was no minor offense.
Upon hearing this,
those who were envious of Su Yunjin’s tavern could be green with envy over her business success, but they would no longer dare to entertain any ill intentions towards her establishment.
With the venerable status of Prince Qi Residence’s Dowager Consort, even the reigning Emperor afforded her threefold reverence–who would dare to challenge Prince Qi Residence? That would be nothing short of wearying one’s life.
Since that incident, indeed, no one troubled Su Yunjin’s tavern any longer. Formerly, the customers who came to buy alcohol would occasionally include some rascals and hoodlums looking for a free meal, but after the Prince Qi Residence made its stance clear, even the town’s ruffians didn’t dare cause trouble for Su Yunjin.
In hindsight, Su Yunjin’s establishment had turned misfortune into a blessing with the protection of the Prince Qi Residence, having such a formidable backer.
No longer needing to fear anyone causing them trouble in the future.
The issue of people envying their business and causing disturbances was thoroughly resolved, and the tavern’s business was booming even more with the newly developed fruit wines.
The tavern attracted an additional clientele. Those who couldn’t afford the expensive ones could opt for the cheaper varieties. Su Yunjin’s other, more affordable fruit wines also had a good taste.
And they weren’t much inferior to the wild fruit wines. Furthermore, each had its unique flavour, adding variety, and those who could afford the expensive ones were also willing to purchase these more affordable varieties.
However, a new problem arose shortly afterward. Su Yunjin realized that wild fruits were gradually disappearing from the market. She had forgotten that wild fruits were seasonal, and they wouldn’t be available once their time passed.
One would have to wait until the same time next year for them to reappear.
Without wild fruits, it would be impossible to continue making wild fruit wines. With the most expensive fruit wines in the tavern unable to be brewed, Su Yunjin began to worry.
“Husband, what should we do? We can’t buy wild fruits anymore. We won’t be able to brew this type of fruit wine again,” unless they waited until next year, and there were still many months left in this year!
They couldn’t just sit and wait for the existing stocks of fruit wine to sell out, could they? No, she had to think of another solution, come up with a way to replace the wine made from wild fruits.
