In Jiuzhenfang.
Zheng Ruqian, who was wearing a thin cotton shirt, held out his hand to the young man in brocade robes, "Thank you so much, Mr. Zhu. Mr. Zhu is so kind. Ru Qian is really unforgettable."
Who would have thought that in the end it was Zhu Sihuan from the Zhu family who helped not only buy the lychees from the Liao family, but also buy the lychees from the Liao family.
A whole hundred pounds, all here.
"It's nothing to help Brother Xu with a little help." Zhu Sihuan smiled and waved his hands, "I just hope that Brother Xu will be the first to succeed in the future, and don't forget me as a friend."
"Definitely." Zheng Ruqian smiled and greeted.
Although the Zhu family is a vassal of the Fang family, Zhu Sihuan is quite a real person. Due to the conflicts between the two parties, he dare not have a close relationship. Now it is not easy to take the lychees.
Zheng Ruqian reciprocated the favor and took away ten kilograms of lychees and some cakes for him.
When Jiuzhenfang returned to calm, Jiang Sheng came over with a round, red face and said expectantly, "Second brother, can we start?"
From the time they decided to harvest lychees to now, they have invested a total of 3,700 taels of silver, which is almost equivalent to the existing family capital.
No matter how courageous Jiang Sheng is, he can't help but be a little scared.
Afraid of losing money, afraid of losing everything, afraid of not being able to sell.
But the lychees have been brought in, and the cellar is constantly being replenished with ice cubes, so the arrow has to be fired.
Instead of waiting in fear, it is better to know the result quickly.
Zheng Ruqian touched his sister's little head and responded softly, "Okay, let's get started."
Putting aside the business war and returning to the transaction itself, things become easier.
In order to express his gratitude and increase the value of lychee ice, Zheng Ruqian ordered that each of the Yao family, Dou family, Qi family, and Zhao family send a piece of lychee ice. Even Zhu Sihuan secretly gave a plate.
It is impossible for the Jiang family to skip it, not only to send it, but also to send more.
Two plates were given to Mrs. Jiang, and two plates were given to the second room of the Jiang family.
The lychees taken out from the ice hole were a little hard at first, but after a short pause, they softened a lot. When white frost appeared on the flesh, it was the best to taste.
Ladies from aristocratic families will gently bite into half a piece, first feeling the sweetness and refreshing taste of the lychee meat, then tasting the sweetness and richness of the osmanthus honey, and finally the crispness and sharpness of the ice, which directly beats away all the heat waves.
If you are careless, you can put the whole piece into your mouth, feel the frost on your tongue and lips, enjoy the sweetness secreted by the stimulation, and finally bite the pulp gently to let the sweetness and sweetness blend into one.
No matter which way you eat it, it is enough to amaze the Fengjing family who are tired of Sushan and ice cheese.
Of course, the most precious thing is the lychee itself.
Thanks to the Liao family's tireless efforts in raising the value of lychees in the past few years, eating two bites of lychees during the season is already an honor. After the season, lychees are comparable to precious jewels in jewelry.
Coupled with the unique taste, Yao Siqing was so amazed that he came to order five dishes the next day.
Yes, sell by the plate.
Jiang Sheng thinks that the current price of lychees is embarrassing. Even if it is said to be expensive, it is not as expensive as before, and even if it is said to be cheap, it is not cheap. The price of lychee ice seems high at fifty taels, but it is not profitable at the price of ten taels.
It's better to just use a plate and put about thirty lychees, about one and a half pounds, and sell them for forty taels.
Take away the weight of ice and sandwich, and the profit is quite high.
After the Yao family, the Fengjing family also came to place orders one after another, and they earned back 3,700 taels in a few days.
Even the second room of the Jiang family has made several reservations.
Second, enter the small courtyard.
Jiang Sheng picked up a piece of braised fish with chopsticks and was a little disappointed, "Are you getting your money back?"
"Three hundred and forty kilograms of lychees. After selling just over one hundred kilograms, the original price was recovered. That's good." Zheng Ruqian removed the thorns for her. "The rest is profit."
Only then did Jiang Sheng put his heart back in his stomach and eat the fish seriously.
Zhang Xianglian is good at stewing elbows, but she is not very good at handling fish, so she always eats more meat than fish when she enters the courtyard.
After the master chef learned about it, he volunteered to help stew the fish.
The children all understood what he was thinking and nodded kindly in agreement. However, they did not expect that the master chef was really good at his craftsmanship. Jiang Sheng could finish the whole braised fish and couldn't stop eating it.
Zhang Xianglian felt sorry for her girl, so she shamelessly asked the master to help again.
After all the help, it would be too much not to leave food behind.
So the master chef could sit at the dining table in the small courtyard at the second entrance and serve Zhang Xianglian food.
"Sister Xianglian, try this. The meat under the fish's eyes is the most delicious, the most tender and fragrant." The master happily took it over.
At first Zhang Xianglian gave it to Jiang Sheng, and then she blushed and put it into her mouth.
"This, this is also delicious, the fish mouth is the essence." The master took another chopstick.
Zhang Xianglian waved her hand.
He was a man who knew his sense of propriety, so he quickly turned a corner and dropped it into Jiang Sheng's bowl, "My child is delicious, eat more."
"Thank you, Master." Jiang Sheng responded crisply, sweeping up the braised fish.
After eating, we have to continue working.
There are many aristocratic families in Dinglizhi. Jiuzhenfang was so lonely before, but now it is so noisy.
Familiar and unfamiliar people all came to buy lychee ice.
As soon as Jiang Sheng finished collecting the money from the Zhao family, a maid appeared in front of her, with a cold and displeased face, "I also want a plate of lychee ice."
"Address, forty taels, arrange for someone to send it there immediately." She recorded it without looking up.
The maid was silent for a moment, then uttered four words, "Liao's family on East Street."
Originally, Jiang Sheng's handwriting was not very good-looking, but this time he suddenly stopped reading and couldn't read it anymore.
She regretfully took away the rice paper and replaced it with another, "Forty taels, I'll arrange for someone to send it over later."
Lychee ice is special. It is difficult to transport in ordinary wooden boxes. It must be wrapped in a whole piece of ice and quilted to ensure that it does not melt.
The maid snorted coldly and shook out fifty taels of silver ingots.
Zhang Xianglian cut off two pieces with big scissors, weighed ten pieces and pushed them over.
"No need." The maid did not reach out to take it, "These ten taels are rewarded to you by the Liao family."
What a commendable word.
Rewards can only be used between a master and a servant, or between a noble and a humble person.
Although Jiuzhenfang is just a pastry shop and belongs to the Shi Nong Industrial and Commercial Area, it has never received such blatant contempt in Fengjing.
Zhang Xianglian was a little unhappy at that time.
Jiang Sheng was calm, stretched out his hand to take the ten taels of silver, and said calmly, "The Liao family is generous, thank you for me."
Seeing that the verbal stimulation was useless, the maid turned around angrily.
Zhang Xianglian was left worried, "Xiao Jiang Sheng, go and call Ru Qian. This Liao family must have bad intentions. We can't give him lychee ice."
Jiuzhenfang's business was in full swing, and Zheng Ruqian couldn't sit still, so he had already gone to do other things.
Jiang Sheng pondered for a moment and shook his head, "If you don't look for the second brother, and don't let the aunts go, I will go."
Maybe it was the confidence given by her grandmother, or maybe she knew that Zheng Ruqian would have to travel around sooner or later, and the little girl who was protected by her brothers began to take charge of her own business.
The Liao family is really not scary.
Besides, Jiang San and Jiang Si are all following.
Jiang Sheng collected the money and asked Daya to come over and record it, while she got on the carriage and rushed to the Baishui workshop to take out the lychee ice, and then rushed to the door of Liao's house as quickly as possible.
