During the opening meal, we roasted half a sheep and hundreds of catties of vegetables, earning seven taels and four cents of silver.
The mutton was borrowed from Wei, and he had to pay for it.
The vegetables are picked from his own land, and there is a clear distinction between public and private matters, so the money should still be given to Song Zhenping.
In addition to the seasoning packets, cartons, charcoal money, the wages of each waiter, and such a large restaurant, it requires at least eight taels of silver a day to cover the capital, and it seems to be a loss.
Song Liyun smiled until her eyes turned into crescents.
Today is a promotion, most of the ingredients are given away for free, and the prices are also on sale at half price.
When the prices return to regular prices in the future, you can earn more than twenty taels of silver with just these ingredients.
With the experience of the first day, Ye Hua, who manages the kitchen, already knows what to prepare.
These guys are all old people who are used to doing the same thing, and now they are willing to work in Tianxiang Tower. Song Liyun doesn't have to waste any time arranging it, he will find a job on his own.
The restaurant was closing, and while it was still dark, Song Liyun, who had changed into a smoky green dress with sleeves, rode a chrysanthemum green horse, escorted by Zhou Xiang and the other five, and left the city to go home as he had done a dozen days ago.
On the city wall, Jiang Feng was wearing casual clothes and standing against the wall. He looked at the figure disappearing on the official road with a smile in his eyes.
He already knew that the city's kitchen shop wanted to squeeze out Tianxiang Tower, but it was just a matter of private business that the government could not intervene in.
Tianxiang Tower opened today, and not even the usual scoundrels came to join in the fun.
He thought it would end in silence, but he didn't expect that the strong aroma would attract half of the people on the street.
Everyone likes to taste delicious food for free. No matter how powerful the people in the kitchen are, they can't pinch other people's noses or cover the mouths of passers-by.
There is also the convenient paper box, which is much better looking than the leaf bag when held in the palm of your hand. You don’t need to open your mouth, someone will ask you along the way.
Yixi came back and said many times: It smells so good and there are so many people!
Jiang Feng remembered what the Third Young Master had said about Song Liyun that day.
Although he didn't say much, he still saw some clues.
The third young master left a gift box at the county government office when he left, and asked Yixi to send it as a congratulatory gift when Tianxiang Tower reopened.
The Third Young Master has been familiar with this girl for a long time, but he still pretended not to know her at the county government office, which was inexplicably awkward, and even asked him to send her a gift.
Probably because he was knocked unconscious in Broken Gold Town, the young man who was proficient in martial arts felt embarrassed and angry.
It's a small thing to give gifts to the third young master.
But today I opened it and saw that it contained a bright red chicken heart stone.
If it were ordinary gold and silver, he would have asked the boy to give it away, but it was a chicken heart stone... No!
Jiang Feng shook his head, the third young master was tempted.
This is not allowed!
If the prince ascends the throne, the third son will be a true relative of the emperor, and it is possible for him to marry a noble daughter of the Wu Dynasty in the future.
And if we want to expand to a large part of the country in three years, the fifty cavalry of the Uda tribe are not enough. We also need the help of tribal marriages.
When the Third Young Master returns to the grassland, Madam Wu Ya will definitely take care of this matter.
Marrying a wife is a matter of virtue, and taking concubines is a matter of sex, regardless of status. With this girl's temperament and beauty, she cannot be a concubine, and I am afraid she will not be willing to be a concubine, which will cause trouble.
Jiang Feng came from the Qing family of Dali Temple, and he often saw this kind of behavior from noble families in Beijing.
When you meet a special girl, you will love her affectionately, but it is the elders in the family who make the final decision about marrying a wife.
This girl from a military household is no ordinary girl. Instead of having a grudge against each other afterwards, it would be better to stay away from her as soon as possible.
Out of consideration for the future of the Third Young Master, the gift was naturally concealed from him.
Song Liyun didn't know that someone on the city wall was planning her future and was still running on her way to get off work.
Everyone had a hard day today, and she just wanted to go back early to wash up and rest.
Now there are salesmen coming and going between Qili County and Suijin Town every day, so the road between the two has been repaired.
The official road that was originally covered with gravel and overgrown with branches has become much easier to navigate. Song Liyun returned to Ruijin Town in only half an hour on horseback.
It was dusk, and the lanterns were lit, giving off the atmosphere of Broken Gold Town.
There are scattered stones in the market, where stall owners place their goods during the day.
In the bright open space, a few people took advantage of the lack of people to cool down and built stones and walls.
These are the townspeople who can't wait for the cool weather in autumn and want to build a small shop as soon as possible to facilitate business.
Hearing the sound of horse hooves entering the town, those people stopped to greet Song Liyun: "Miss Song came back a little late today, and Brother Ping has been to the town entrance several times to see her."
Song Liyun smiled back: "I'm delayed by something, so I'll go back now."
Tianxiang Tower opened today, but she did not tell Song Zhenping and the others.
In this situation, she didn't know what would happen. Instead of having one more person to worry about, it would be better not to say anything.
After hearing that Song Zhenping had come to wait several times, she said no more and asked Zhou Xiang and the others to go back to the defense center to rest. They only need to go to Qili County together tomorrow morning.
She rushed to Baolinju alone, whipping up her whip.
Not sure if it was because she was in a good mood, but Song Liyun felt that Baolinju was particularly different today.
Looking from a distance, we can see lanterns of various sizes hanging on the branches outside the courtyard. The tallest ones are even hung on the tips of the branches and swaying in the wind.
Before he even got close to the fruit forest, Heijin jumped out of the woods, yelling "haha" and ran in the direction of Song Liyun.
He chased Xiao An behind it, shouting as he ran: "Second sister, second sister is back."
Xiao An was chasing a small dog with yellow and white flowers. It couldn't outrun one person and one monkey, and it kept barking "woof, woof" in a hurry.
Song Liyun was so heart-broken by the calls of "Second Sister" and "Second Sister".
Now she realizes even more that it is a kind of happiness to have someone to rely on, and it is also a kind of happiness to be relied on.
Song Liyun stepped on the stirrup and dismounted, touched Heijin's head, then walked towards Xiao An, and said with a smile: "Why is Xiao An so happy today?"
She had to go home every night, and although Xiao An would come out to pick her up, he was not as excited as today.
"Go home, you'll know when you go home!"
Xiao An came to pull the horse's reins, but Song Liyun put his hand away and said, "Don't come over. The horse and I are covered in dust."
After a tiring day, she came back on horseback and was covered in dust.
"Don't be afraid, Xiao An will lead the horse for the second sister!" Xiao An smiled and pulled the reins. He didn't see the second sister for another day.
Walking into the carriage road, Yun Niang, Han Ming and Song Zhenping were all waiting outside the door with smiles on their faces.
Seeing the two red lights hanging at the gate, Song Liyun became more and more surprised: "What happened today? What are you doing?"
Song Zhenping was wearing a new dress at this time and dressed solemnly.
He came up to her and said with a smile: "Yun'er, today is your birthday, why did you forget? I told you to go home early this morning."
"Hey!" Song Liyun slapped her forehead, and she really forgot about it.
Because she was opening for business today, she packed up the vegetables in the backyard before dawn in the morning, and hurried out after Zhou Xiang got half a sheep from the guardhouse.
As for what Song Zhenping told her to go home early, she didn't even remember it.
It turned out to be my eighteenth birthday!
The family dinner had been prepared long ago. Song Zhenping didn't tell anyone else, just a few of her family members celebrated.
Song Liyun went to wash up and change clothes. Everyone was already waiting in the room.
On the table were chicken, duck, fish, various side dishes, and clear mushroom soup.
There are no cakes and red candles here, but there are smiling faces all around.
Song Liyun also didn't expect that she would be eighteen again.
