Early the next morning, Xiao Jixiang gave Lin Daiyu a cup of bird's nest.
Lin Daiyu couldn't help but ask: "Jixiang, why did you think of giving me a bird's nest? Did your third master cook it for me to drink?"
Xiao Jixiang said with a smile: "Miss Lin, it was specially cooked for you by the third master's command. The third master said that it is best to drink it on an empty stomach in the morning and evening. It nourishes the body and is very good for the girl's body."
Lin Daiyu couldn't help being deeply moved after hearing this. First of all, some people said that eating bird's nest is good and nourishes the body.
But now she is living in the Jia family. Because she is weak and needs to take medicine, she has attracted a lot of gossip. How can she talk about eating bird's nest?
But at this moment, she never expected that Brother Huan would actually have this in mind and actually have bird's nests boiled and sent over.
During breakfast, Xiao Jixiang brought some more dishes.
These dishes include chicken, duck, mushrooms, white fungus, lily, etc., and finally a bowl of milk.
And these dishes are all Jiangnan flavors. It is true that people are far away from Jiangnan, and only vegetables are close to Jiangnan.
Lin Daiyu couldn't help but shed tears when she tasted this familiar taste.
When she came to Jia's house and lived under the shelter of others, although her grandmother loved her, she also encountered many open and covert attacks.
Now I never expected that Brother Huan would do this for her.
After breakfast, Lin Daiyu couldn't help but come to Jia Huan's study to thank him.
"Brother Huan, thank you for the bird's nest and breakfast you sent me this morning. It really took your trouble."
Jia Huan smiled and said, "Sister Lin, how are you eating?"
Lin Daiyu said: "It's just the taste of my hometown. I actually ate more rice today. But the milk has a fishy smell, which I can't get used to."
Jia Huan said quickly: "Sister Lin, diet is very important. Only if you eat well can your body get better. From now on, you need to eat milk every day, and you will be fine if you eat it for a few more days."
"I have prepared a recipe for you, and I will have someone deliver it to you at meal time. Food supplements are the most nourishing. If you eat them often, your body will get better soon."
When Lin Daiyu first came here, she learned a set of body-building exercises from Jia Huan, which she did every day.
And after Jia Huan's persuasion, Lin Daiyu's crying frequency has been greatly reduced.
Although her body is still a little weak now, she is much better than she was at the same time in The Red Mansions.
Jia Huan believes that with further dietary supplements, her body will get better and can basically reach the level of a normal person.
Lin Daiyu was greatly moved when she heard this. She quickly said: "Brother Huan, I am grateful enough to have a meal once in a while. Where is the reason to eat every day?"
"If that's the case, I won't feel at ease, and I won't be able to come to see you. This is absolutely inappropriate, and it can't be done like this again."
Jia Huan laughed and said: "Sister Lin, I have separated from my husband, and you know it. Don't spread the income from my perfume business. It can cost tens of thousands of silver a month."
"You are a big-bellied arhat, how much can you eat? I know Sister Lin still likes the taste of Jiangnan, so I just gave the kitchen instructions and they made it."
"Sister Lin will get better soon if she eats it. I have always known that Sister Lin is not that kind of ordinary person. Why are you so fussy about it now?"
"Besides, I haven't repaid Sister Lin for her kindness in enlightenment. Please give me this chance, Sister Lin."
Lin Daiyu was even more moved by Jia Huan's remarks.
This time, she did not say thank you again, but kept it in her heart.
From then on, Lin Daiyu would send a maid over to pick up the food every time it was time to eat.
Jia Huan prepares Jiangnan dishes for her every day. She is already flattered, and there is no reason for others to send them every meal.
Unless you are eating at Jia Mu's place, someone will be sent to pick up every meal.
Jia Huan, on the other hand, lives alone, and all the dishes are bought with his own money.
Those maids and women, no matter how hard they bite their tongues, can't arrange it here.
…
After another half month, Jia Huan first called Jia Yun and got an account book from Jia Yun.
Jia Huan called Xue Pan and said to Xue Pan: "Brother Xue, please ask shopkeeper Gao to bring the account book. Well, I will go to your house."
"It's best if Auntie and Sister Bao are both present. I want to teach Shopkeeper Gao a bookkeeping method."
"Our dividends will not be so casual as new members join in the future. We can just mention a number casually."
The realization phase is completely possible because the store only sells two thousand bottles of perfume every five days.
This number is clear and clear, no more, no less, and the amount of silver that can be sold is a fixed amount.
There is no need to look at the account book at all, it is clear at a glance.
But their perfumes must be promoted and sold after all.
When the time comes, you will definitely have to look at the ledgers, and then the ledgers will not be able to be calculated in this way.
For this account book, you must use a trustworthy person, and there must be three account books.
One is for Eunuch Xia in the palace, and the second is for the other partners. The third book was what the two of them read.
After hearing Jia Huan's instructions, Xue Pan nodded repeatedly.
Xue Pan didn't care what Jia Huan said, he only knew that it was enough to listen to what Brother Huan said was absolutely correct.
Not long after, shopkeeper Gao came to Lixiangyuan with the account book.
In Lixiang Courtyard, Aunt Xue and Xue Baochai were present at the same time. The mother and daughter looked at each other, wondering what Jia Huan was up to.
Jia Huan first said: "Aunt Xue, Sister Bao, Shopkeeper Gao, it's like this. I called Shopkeeper Gao here because the accounting method of the perfume shop needs to be changed in the future."
"I'll first see how Shopkeeper Gao records it in his account book, and then I'll teach Shopkeeper Gao how to keep accounts in the future."
Having said this, Jia Huan flipped through the accounts remembered by shopkeeper Gao. After reading a few pages, Jia Huan couldn't help but sigh.
Then, Jia Huan took out a sharpened charcoal pen and started recording on a piece of white paper.
At this time, Shopkeeper Gao was shocked.
But soon, he calmed down.
There was something wrong with this account, but he believed that Jia Huan would never see it.
These old accountants are all masters at making false accounts.
But this time, because the transaction had just begun, shopkeeper Gao tried his best to fake the accounts to the point where they were almost fake.
Even the old accountant might not be able to spot the fishy matter, and he certainly didn't believe that a young boy like Jia Huan could spot any problems.
Because the perfume shop had only been open for more than a month and did not have many accounts, Jia Huan read it quickly.
It didn't take long to read all the accounts.
After reading it, Jia Huan couldn't help but laugh and said: "What a good trick by Shopkeeper Gao. The perfume shop has just opened, and Shopkeeper Gao just spent three hundred and sixty-eight taels of silver."
"This is because perfume has a fixed quantity and a fixed price, so it is not easy to be greedy. Before this, shopkeeper Gao didn't know how much he was greedy!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the room was shocked.
