The atmosphere in the room was very complicated, with despair and anger intertwined, but also a bit sadder and helpless than you.
"It would be nice if Concubine Rong was still here..."
Concubine Rong is dead, and her daughter is dead.
Having said that she is not dead, with her cultivation of Concubine Rong since childhood and her stunning beauty, she may be able to gain more life for them.
Looking at his frustrated son, Zhou Tianfu felt a little depressed.
"Cheer up, old man, and don't be so submissive. Doing so will only make your first joke mock you!"
"Also, regarding these gold and silver jewelry, we cannot reveal any details to Qi State, no matter how attentive the other party is!"
"Hiding a knife in a smile" is his special move, and Zhou Tianfu is instinctively immune to this move.
Zhou Ji completely nodded and remembered it in his heart, and under Zhou Tianfu's instructions, he hid all the treasures well.
Next, it depends on how Qi Tianlei behaves.
The cold wind from Daqi stretched for hundreds of miles and finally reached the capital of Dachu.
In Xiao Chen's private residence.
A woman with a well-proportioned figure in a white dress was seriously reporting on the recent profits of the Chamber of Commerce.
Xiao Chen suddenly frowned: "Wait a minute, compared to the last quarter, the Chamber of Commerce's profit does not seem to have increased significantly."
There Bai Zhi shrugged, "There is nothing we can do about it. The weather has been getting colder recently, and many people are too lazy to stretch their hands."
"With fewer people on the streets, business will naturally be less lively."
Afraid that Xiao Chen wouldn't understand, she quickly added: "Actually, our situation is pretty good. You don't know that some of the other shops are directly at a loss."
Under Bai Zhi's management, there were always people who showed up every day, looking at his face, and couldn't help but walk into the Chamber of Commerce.
Coupled with the advantages of the Chamber of Commerce, there are many novel species, providing convenience and enjoyment, it has naturally become the direction that everyone is crowded with.
Although the profit has not increased significantly, it has not dropped, nor has it become negative like other unlucky people.
Bai Zi covered her little eyes, she felt that she had done a good job.
Xiao Chen sighed: "Well, it's not that I don't know how to be satisfied, but it's that Concubine Jing never stops."
"You don't know that woman, she seizes every opportunity, and the first thing she said when we met was to urge me to make money quickly."
I was thinking that I had not asked about the Chamber of Commerce for quite some time.
I thought it was Bai Zhi who caused the Chamber of Commerce to suffer operating losses, but it turned out that it was because profits did not increase.
Women...sometimes they get really greedy and get out of hand.
Obviously there is too much money to pile up, but the desire is still dissatisfied.
Bai Zhi couldn't help but rolled her eyes, and muttered: "It's true, sister, money doesn't come from strong winds."
"I don't know what she does every day. With so much money in his hands, there will always be times when it's not enough."
A gust of cool wind blew across the thick cotton coat, and Bai Zhi couldn't help but shiver.
"Look, even wearing cotton clothes makes me feel cold."
"If I were one of those guests, I would rather stay in a warm little home than go out and spend money in the cold."
"Unless, there is something hot and attractive outside."
Bai Zhi's little appearance is quite cute, to be honest.
However, her casual remarks awakened Xiao Chen.
He suddenly jumped up from his chair, "I thought of it, we can launch milk tea."
"Have a cup of hot milk tea in winter. The tea and milk blend together to warm your body and heart!"
Bai Zhi tilted her head, "What is milk tea?"
Suddenly, Xiao Chen excitedly took her hand and said, "Follow me."
The two of them were walking in tandem, with Xiao Chen taking long strides and Bai Zhi having to take a small jog to keep up with him.
When they reached the kitchen, Xiao Chen rolled up his sleeves and said to him, "Go and help me light up the fire."
Bai Zhi was a little depressed, "Is this the clothes I just made, or is it white?"
"Lord Governor, you are really..."
"It's okay, I'll buy you a new one later."
He winked at her, which actually made Bai Zhi feel a little flustered. She quickly ran to the fire bed and lit a fire.
Xiao Chen was also busy in the kitchen, taking sugar and tea, and scooping up some fresh milk delivered yesterday.
When the fire was fixed, Bai Zhi took some time to walk around Xiao Chen, blinking at his movements.
"Lord Governor, why do you pour milk and tea together..."
"Milk tea, milk tea, milk and tea..."
She muttered something vaguely, and suddenly understood what vivid images meant.
She watched Xiao Chen's every step without daring to blink.
The boiled sugar is added to the tea leaves and stir-fried together. Finally, the milk is poured in and boiled together. When done, turn off the heat.
After a little filtering, you get a bowl of milk tea with tea and milk aroma mixed together.
"Come on, taste it first, I'm sure you'll be satisfied."
Bai Zhi felt a little novel, took a sip, and was instantly immersed in it.
But his round eyes were even wider at this moment, like two glass balls, staring at Xiao Chen with surprise, and couldn't stop praising: "Well, the taste is really amazing!"
"The sweet smell is an indescribable but wonderful feeling."
She looked at the remaining milk tea longingly, and she really had the urge to gulp it down.
Xiao Chen couldn't do anything to her, "I'll give you all these to drink, and I'll make another bowl."
Bai Zhi drank the whole bowl, her mouth was fragrant, her body also felt a little warmer, and even her belly felt warm.
Warming up the body can also increase the feeling of fullness. Bai Zhi imitated Xiao Chen's previous behavior and gave a thumbs up: "Thumbs up!"
Xiao Chen teased slightly: "You've learned quite well."
Then he added: "You have also seen the production process. Any tea can be used to make milk tea, but you have to pay attention to the cost."
"When the weather gets cold, let's sell hot milk tea."
"Making money is a strategy and a method. There is no point in blaming the weather. You have to learn to use your brain."
Bai Zhi was taught a lesson for no reason, and she was still a little unconvinced, but she couldn't find a reason to refute him.
But I still feel happy when I look at the milk tea, and I will make it for myself to drink every day from now on~
Just as the two were discussing seriously, there was a burst of noise, which instantly attracted their attention.
"There seems to be someone quarreling outside?"
The sound seemed far away, rather it seemed to be coming from the other side of the gate.
If it can be spread here, it is probably very popular!
An ominous premonition came to his mind, and Xiao Chen frowned: "Let's go out and take a look first."
The two of them quickly arrived at the door. As soon as the door opened, they saw a bunch of people running in the same direction, seemingly looking for the excitement.
Xiao Chen caught a young man by the way: "Little brother, I don't know what happened, why are everyone in such a hurry?"
