At about o'clock on the second day, Su Lele ordered his servants to deliver the honey-glazed pork breasts to each house, and then asked Qiu Yu to find the housekeeper and come to Yanyu Pavilion.
"Butler, the concubine made some new snacks yesterday, and I gave you a pack to try. In addition, I came to you because I want to order 200 kilograms of pork every day from the butcher who buys pork for the palace on weekdays, starting tomorrow."
"Old slave thanks the princess for the reward. The pork that the palace eats every day is transported from the palace's village. There are several villages in the palace and they raise a lot of pigs, chickens and ducks. The poultry that is usually uneaten is sold. .”
"Then buy from Zhuangzi every day. You can keep good accounts every day and settle the accounts at the end of the month."
In this case, there is no need to worry about the pork being out of stock, and since the pork is purchased from the Wangfu, the quality of the pork is guaranteed.
"Okay, Princess." The housekeeper reported to the prince last time that all the ingredients or goods that the princess plans to purchase in the future will be paid for from her, without using the prince's money. The prince had no objection after hearing this.
"I will sell some snacks in the palace in the future. I plan to find some young and strong boys in the palace. All I have to do every day is chop pork. Of course, I will give them one or two silver coins every month."
"Okay, I will pick some boys for you to choose from, Princess. In addition, there is no need to pay them wages. The palace has money to give them every month, which is not low. This is what they should do."
"Yeah, okay." That's right. It's not appropriate to settle the money for them anymore, for fear of causing jealousy and disputes among other servants in the house.
After the housekeeper left, Su Lele told Qiu Yu to buy more large iron plates and oil paper, and to make a few seals with Su's stamp on them.
After Qiu Yu went out, Su Lele sat in the main hall, eating pork jerky and reading miscellaneous books. Suddenly I thought of buying a few maids to come back to make snacks, so I got on the carriage and headed to Yahang in Dongcheng District.
Dongcheng District Dental Store is the largest dental store in the four major urban areas. After all, Dongcheng District has many official families, so the demand for buyers is correspondingly greater.
Su Lele walked into the dental shop with two maids from the palace, and the clerk from the dental shop immediately came to greet her.
"Miss, please tell me who you want to buy from. Anyone who is young, energetic, clever, can do accounting, or can cook."
The clerk was selling hard. Although the lady in front of him only brought two maids, he did not look down on others and greeted her respectfully.
"I'll buy some maids."
"Okay, please come over here with me." The guy pointed in one direction and said.
Looking at the row of tall, short, fat and thin girls, Su Lele chose six girls who were around 14 years old and dressed relatively cleanly. Finally bought two young men.
A total of 130 taels for eight people. Men, 20 taels each, women, 15 taels each.
After returning to the Yanyu Pavilion of the Palace, Su Lele looked at these eight young men and girls who were very restrained and frightened: "You don't have to be afraid. As long as you work hard and abide by the rules, the monthly money will be yours." .”
"Thank you, Princess, we will work hard."
They didn't expect that the owner who bought them was the princess. Their frightened mood calmed down after hearing the princess's words.
"You guys have a good rest today, and you will start to listen to Qiu Yu's arrangements tomorrow."
"Okay, Princess."
After the maid Qiu Yu came back from shopping, she learned that she had become the little consul responsible for managing eight servants. She felt very happy. The lady thought highly of her, so she must work more seriously to give back to the lady.
Two days later, Leng Yichen took care of his official duties and rushed back to the palace in the capital to report to his father the progress of the corruption and crimes committed by the county magistrate in Chuzhou City.
"Father, the county magistrate of Chuzhou City has detained him and returned him to the capital. This matter also involves Li Hong, a wealthy businessman in Chuzhou City. There are witnesses and physical evidence. The property of the two families has been confiscated, and the relatives of the two families have been taken to the Mobei area to open up wasteland. .”
"Well, you did a good job." The emperor looked at the file and praised it.
"Are you tired? You can go back to the palace later and help me reply with a compliment to my daughter-in-law. The honey-glazed pork breasts she made are very popular with me, the Queen, and the Queen Mother."
As the emperor spoke, he reminisced about the delicious, salty and slightly sweet taste of pork breast.
"Okay, Father." She made new snacks again, not forgetting the share of her father and mother, who were very smooth in doing things.
At this time, Su Lele was instructing people to make pork jerky in the dining room, and the aromatic and rich meat aroma could be smelled throughout the garden.
The housekeeper came to report: "Princess, the prince has returned from work and invites you to come to Yijing Pavilion."
"Okay, I'll change into a suit first and then go, let him wait."
Leng Yichen was back, and she happened to have something to talk to him about. Su Lele quickly changed into a lilac Liuxian skirt and told Qiu Yu to bring ten packs of pork jerky to the Prince's Villa.
After Leng Yichen returned to the palace, the first thing he had to do was take a shower and change clothes.
Not long after Su Lele arrived at the main hall, she saw Leng Yichen, who was handsome and tall and had an extraordinary temperament, walking in wearing a light blue brocade robe. He was not wearing official uniform, but his majesty was everywhere.
Su Lele sighed: With his figure and appearance, he could kill many celebrities instantly in modern times.
"My lord, you are back. I made some new snacks and brought them to you to try." Su Lele said with a slight smile.
Leng Yichen's eyes moved slightly at this moment, the corners of her mouth were raised slightly, and her pear curls were shallow and bright.
A low and cold voice sounded: "Well, I'm back. My father praised the honey-glazed pork jerky you made for being delicious. My mother, the emperor and grandma also like it very much."
"Thank you for their compliments. Try it and see if it tastes like it." After Su Lele finished speaking, he ordered his servants to put a small plate of pork jerky on it and put it in front of the table where Leng Yichen was sitting.
"Not bad." After Leng Yichen took a sip, he finally realized the salty yet sweet taste that his father mentioned, and the rich flavor, and the dried meat was neither dry nor woody. When you go out to do errands, bring some with you to satisfy your hunger and cravings.
"It's fine, Your Majesty, if you like it. If you want to eat later, you can always tell your servants to come get it. I also want to tell you: I have bought a few servants in the past few days, and I plan to make some new snacks for sale in the garden. Does Your Majesty agree?" Su Lele looked at Leng Yichen seriously.
"Since I agree to cooperate with you, I am not that ignorant or rigid person. I promise to lend you a hand for two years. If you want to sell snacks in a garden or find someone to cooperate with you, it's up to you."
"I just listened to the butler's message about the crazy rumors about me and you outside. You can ignore these. I'm sorry! I was out on business and couldn't go back to the Su Mansion with you."
The prince is worthy of being a royal person. Although he is aloof and arrogant, he understands etiquette and his courtesy is deeply rooted in his brain.
It was rare for Su Lele to hear the prince say so many words: "Thank you, prince, for remembering the content of our agreement. I will not pay attention to what is said outside. I am only worried that it will cause trouble to the prince."
"Your Majesty is probably tired when he goes out to do errands, so I won't bother him."
After Su Lele finished speaking, he was ready to return to Yanyu Pavilion.
"Are you still planning on cooking tonight?"
