Chapter 54(1/2)

Dividend Rewards

The front hall of Wu Zhai in Huaiyuanfang.

Wu Junya looked at the eleven pieces of gold on the table and the hundred pieces of silk piled next to it. She was so shocked that she couldn't close her mouth. Zhao Xin was looking at the medicinal materials for the order written by Huaiyu.

.

"Sun Jian, the eldest son of the East Palace Medicine Storehouse, I'm not familiar with it, and I've never heard of it." The fat man is the Right Guard Cao Cao Shenjun. He is originally an eighth-grade official. He doesn't know much about the East Palace. What's more, the East Palace has just changed its owner and has gone through a big round.

Cleaning and replacing Yaozanglang are also normal.

However, looking at the real gold and silk in front of him, the fat man still believed that the other party was from the Yaozang Bureau. As for the fact that the contract was not signed, he felt that he belonged to the East Palace, so who would dare to blackmail the East Palace.

"Isn't it a loss to buy those ten thousand doses of medicine with one hundred taels of gold?"

Huaiyu handed him a list, which contained the main medicinal materials needed for the ten kinds of medicines he listed in detail, "The six kinds of hemostatic powders do not require expensive medicinal materials. With such a large amount, a cheap one of thirty or forty dollars is enough."

, the expensive ones are not more than a hundred dollars. As for Wuwen Powder, Wanxu ointment, etc., they can be cheaper. I estimate that the total cost is at most a thousand pieces of silk."

A thousand pieces of silk are worth three hundred and sixty guan, while a hundred taels of gold are worth 800 guan.

The fat man rolled his eyes, "What's the right price for us?" Knowing that the other party's deposit was enough, the fat man didn't worry about any complications, and now he was thinking about how to make more money. The shopkeeper Zhao Xin told them that these medicines would be available in two parts.

The prices of similar drugs in the market are not cheap.

Even if the quantity is large and the price is good, it is no problem to receive 800 yuan for these 10,000 copies. One copy is worth 80 yuan, which is not expensive.

The fat man took out a gold collar and pointed at the hundred pieces of silk, "Erlang, these are your consultation fees. You can accept them alone and not enter the Qianjin Hall." His reason was that they had agreed to form a partnership before, and Huaiyu provided it.

They provided money for the prescription and sold the medicine together, and the income from the consultation fee should belong to Huaiyu personally.

Huaiyu and Fatty will split the money 30-70, and he and the shopkeepers of Qianjintang will split the money 19-10. Fatty plans to share the bonus directly to stimulate everyone's enthusiasm.

"Of the remaining ten large yellow croakers, let's keep five in Qianjintang's account to buy medicine, process and prepare for use. Let's divide the other five." Fatty suggested with a smile.

Along with the newly received one hundred bolts of silk for the consultation, Huaiyu gave Runniang six hundred bolts of silk plus ten taels of gold, and took her directly to the inner courtyard room, which was his own.

"Scrape and wash the intestines, stomach, liver, heart, and lungs with water several times until they are clean."

The shopkeepers were very jealous when they saw their large yellow croakers. Chen Erlang's reputation as a goldsmith was very resounding in Chang'an. These gold collars were fully stamped, which meant they were perfect. Everyone tested them and couldn't find any problems.

Several stores exchanged money together, and after a round, they packed several large carts of silk and sent it directly to Huaiyuanfang. Because of the approaching war, one tael of gold originally cost 8,000 copper coins, and one piece of silk cost 360 copper coins.

Two pieces of gold were exchanged for twenty-two pieces of silk. With Zhao Xin's help, one piece of gold was exchanged for two hundred and forty pieces of silk, and one piece of gold was exchanged for six hundred and forty pieces of money.

"Actually, you have to stew it for a long time and keep it hot so you won't get any peculiar smell. But if you let it cool down, it will become fishy."

One gold collar can be exchanged for 80,000 Kaiyuan Tongbao, but there are not so many good copper coins in each store. They mainly exchange them for silk, but they can also be exchanged for other copper coins. The exchange ratios vary, but no one is willing to exchange gold for old money.

Just like when Huaiyu prescribed prescriptions for Li Jing's family and Cheng Yaojin's and Qin Qiong's family before, the consultation fees belong to him alone.

Runniang also looked at this carload of things in surprise.

"What is this?"

"Damn it, they are all Turkic cubs in this wolf-like age. They are always at odds with us, the Tang Dynasty. It is not easy for the world to be unified and live a peaceful life, but they always go south." Zhao Xin couldn't help but curse.

"I hope Yongkang Gong and Chai Prince Consort can withstand these wolves at the border."

While everyone was eating cakes, Huaiyu began to make notes.

"These things are actually so delicious?"

Everyone was busy under Huaiyu's command. This thing looked dirty and smelly, but in fact, the main thing was to have the patience to clean it up.

I baked some biscuits and are waiting to make them.

I only ate half of the stewed meat and soup.

Fatty Wu also nodded, "These things are too unpalatable and smelly, just buy some."

It's a pity that there is no braised sauce, otherwise it would be more delicious.

After finishing one bowl, I immediately went to get the second bowl.

Zhao Xin was familiar with the business and knew the credit and current exchange rate of each store very well, but he still took them around several big stores.

Seeing that Fatty and Zhao Xin were both excited, Huaiyu smiled and agreed.

"I'll go to the West Market later to buy meat. I'll be the host for extra food tonight." Zhao Xin shouted excitedly, "Fifty bolts of silk, eighteen strings."

These twelve gold collars of perfect quality are now extremely popular in Chang'an City, and many high-ranking officials from noble families secretly exchange them for gold.

"Put a note!" Huaiyu scooped out a bowl for Runniang and let her taste it. The fat man eagerly took the spoon and scooped out a bowl for himself.

The West Market has also become a bit depressed. Now Heshuo, Longyou, and Hexi places are basically closed to customs. Even the atmosphere in Hedong is tense.

We must know that the beginning of the Turks when Khan surrounded Yang Guang with hundreds of thousands of horses in Yanmen was only a dozen years ago.

When they returned to the small courtyard of Huaiyuanfang, pharmacists, clerks, and apprentices all gathered around, and everyone happily came to move things.

Seeing this, Huaiyu simply scanned several meat stalls and rounded up the meat.

If you take a walk around the West Market, you will find that there is an atmosphere of panic in the West Market. Many people are hoarding supplies, especially food, and the prices are still rising.

As for the tripe, heart, liver, and lungs stewed with some sheep tail oil, it is also rich and soft. Take it out, chop it into pieces, put it into a large pottery bowl, then sprinkle with salt, green onions, and shredded ginger, and then scoop out half a bowl with the oil.

Flower soup.

"Heat a pot of water and boil more water. Others take the pig's head and sheep's head and burn them on the fire, then scrape them clean, chop them into pieces and soak them in the water. Remember to add some salt."

There is nothing wrong with the antiques of the golden age of troubled times. No one can be sure whether the Turks will invade Guanzhong. If they invade, it will be easier to pack up their belongings and run away.

Huaiyu asked people to pick up all the meat and bones, put them into baskets, and then hoist them into the well with ropes to preserve them. The remaining soup was boiled again and then stored at room temperature.

Simmer until dark, and the aroma will fill every pot.

"How delicious would this be, unless you add spices, but spices are as expensive as gold, and it would be a waste to put them in water."

Pulling left and right like this, one stringy string after another is put into the soup to cook. The thick mutton soup is covered with a thick layer of mutton fat. The soup underneath is sitting on the fire, extremely hot, and the strings are boiling.

It quickly floated up.

After several hours of long simmering, not only was the meat soft and rotten, but the fishy smell was basically gone. Although it would be more delicious if you could add some pepper or something, but even if the soup is plain, it can be eaten by a group of people.

Just call me mother.

Huaiyu didn't mind the smell of these things.

Huaiyu originally thought about whether it was expensive or cheap, and bought some to reward everyone, but Zhao Xin felt that his flesh hurt, so in the end he bought some scraps, sheep heads, sheep skeletons, pig heads, and pig and sheep scraps.

Huaiyu grabbed a piece of sheep scorpion and gnawed it vigorously. The butcher who slaughtered the sheep was very good with his knife. The ribs were shaved very clean, but there was still some on the spine, especially the bone marrow inside, which was very fragrant.

Burn, scrape, wash, soak.

After the final discussion, they decided to take one thousand pieces of silk as dividends and give one hundred pieces of silk to the employees of Qianjintang. As the shopkeeper, Zhao Xin got fifty pieces, while the remaining pharmacists and clerks divided the remaining forty pieces, and another ten pieces were given as rewards to the apprentices.

.

The meal lasted from dusk to the willow branches above the moon, and finally everyone was full and had to stop.

There is not much meat in the meat market, and the price has risen incredibly.

Huaiyu received a dividend of 630 bolts of silk, so he simply gave the fat man the 50 yuan he had spent to buy the small courtyard.

Even if you have money, you can't buy grain. Each grain store only opens for a short time in the morning to sell, and then closes, waiting for the price to rise. The more you sell now, the more you lose.

The noodles have already been mixed with salted water. They have also been greased with oil, covered in a basin, allowed to rest for enough time, and kneaded the noodles three times.

"Let's go back and let you see what it means to turn waste into treasure."

Huaiyu handed her the gold collar, "I won't change it for now. You should put it away first."

A very original stewed sheep head and pig head. It has been stewed in the pot until it is soft and rotten. Take it out and peel it off from the bones. Chop half of it directly and mix it with some chopped green onion and add it to the pancake. Add half of it.

Fry shredded ginger and green onion in a pan and add some sauce.

Although there are not so many peppercorns, cinnamon, star anise and other spices, Huaiyu is still very confident. For those apprentices who rarely eat meat, this is also a rare treat.

"I can't finish all of them after buying so many. It's hot and they're all broken. Although they're cheap, it's a waste if they break." Zhao Xin said.

Although raw garlic is very spicy, the fat man couldn't stop eating it.

"Tomorrow morning the gate will be opened. Everyone will share some meat and soup and send it back to their families. The silk dividends you distributed will also be taken back with you, which will also make your family happy."

Huaiyu and Fatty will take the nine hundred horses, 73 of them, Huaiyu will get 630 horses, and Fatty will get 270 horses.

"That skeleton, even though it doesn't have much meat, is delicious when stewed for a while. Chop it into large pieces and soak it in water to soak in the blood."

Holding mutton head meat in pancakes in one hand, holding a big bowl of mutton soup in the other hand, one mouthful of pancakes and one mouthful of soup, how beautiful it is.

Even Chen Runniang, who came from a well-known family, drank and nodded.

The price of those is much cheaper than meat. A big pig head weighing more than ten kilograms only costs two kilograms of meat. A sheep skeleton only costs two kilograms of mutton. Pig lungs, mutton liver, tripe, intestines and those things are even cheaper, especially pig lungs.

It was meant to be thrown away, but was given away to customers who bought more meat.

"From now on, I will send a few guys here early every day to queue up to buy grain. No matter how the price of grain rises, buy more while you can still buy it. Otherwise, we, Qianjintang, will have no grain to eat by then." Huaiyu told Zhao Xin.

Zhao Xin was very excited. After just a few days of work, he was able to get fifty bolts of silk as a bonus. The pharmacists also received a few bolts of silk each, and they were also happy from ear to ear. The clerks and apprentices also received some.

, which is also an unexpected surprise.

"I'll give you an hour's leave. Go home as soon as you finish the delivery. We have a lot of orders, so we have to hurry up."
