"Your Majesty said, Fujin will let him go if he does anything in the dining room..."
Xianglan came over and told Concubine Yi what she said: "In the final analysis, the stewards in the dining room are still lazy and don't change the menu at this age... The empress just asked them to go over and lecture them. From now on, they are not allowed to repeat the monthly dishes because there are not enough dishes."
Make up your own mind..."
Shu Shu hesitated and said: "The Queen Mother's side..."
Already paid for it before.
It’s hard work and hard work.
She didn't want to be left behind after a busy time.
Xianglan said: "Don't worry, your Majesty and the Queen Mother have already said it..."
Shu Shu nodded and said with a smile: "Your Majesty is considerate, so I will listen to your Majesty..."
After saying that, she also went to get a box of hawthorn pills: "With the Tenth Master and the Thirteenth Master accompanying me, our master has eaten a lot these days... I was afraid that he would not be able to heal, so I discussed with the imperial doctor and came up with this.
For digestion... I eat a lot of meat these days. If I have accumulated food, it will be more comfortable to take a pill..."
Xianglan took it with both hands and said with a smile: "The ones here in Fujin are all good. It just so happens that the empress has eaten too much mutton in the past few days, and she has some fire and yang knot..."
Shu Shu sent people away politely.
Xiaotang was a little uneasy: "Fu Jin, will the empress be angry..."
Shu Shu shook his head and said: "Don't worry, go down and rest..."
Xiaotang went down.
Shu Shu no longer thinks about the Queen Mother's affairs.
No one can count on anyone else. The favor of the elders is uncontrollable. You still have to rely on yourself to live your life.
Shu Shu took out the pen, ink, paper and inkstone and made a simple plan for her and Brother Jiu's "Meatball Project".
In addition to hawthorn pills, black sesame pills, and Liuwei Dihuang pills, you may also be able to add a pill to relieve or treat constipation...
Nowadays, constipation is a "disease of wealth" and is mainly a problem of dietary structure.
Rich people mainly eat meat and vegetables.
Mongolia's traditional eating habits of only eating red food and white food, and relying entirely on tea for vitamin intake, are more likely to suffer from this "rich disease".
It is the most common "senna" in later generations. It should not have been introduced yet. It was introduced as a Western medicine in the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China.
The traditional Chinese medicine with obvious relieving effect is "rhubarb", which is slightly toxic and should not be taken for a long time.
It seems that it is still inseparable from the imperial doctor...
Shu Shu thought of Tongrentang again.
I don’t know if it’s the first generation leader or the second generation leader now. It would be great if there were more successful parties.
You can customize medicine directly from him.
Brother Jiu came in and saw Shu Shuan sitting quietly writing.
He came closer and lowered his head to read: "What are you writing about? Medicine... business... Mongolian... ancient... test..., what is it, type selection, promotion of patent medicines, reporting to the imperial court, cooperation with the vassal academy,...
The Ministry of Internal Affairs is at the distribution center to care for Princess Meng and the princess's gift..."
Brother Jiu was reading, picked up Shu Shu's little notebook, became serious, and his voice turned off.
"I remember what you reminded me. There is no small matter involving the vassal, but I just wanted to report the matter to Khan Ama... I didn't expect so many preparations..."
At this point, he felt worried: "Isn't this a private drug that was sold as an official drug? What if Khan Ama directly handed over the matter to the Lifanyuan?"
Shu Shu thought for a while and said: "No, the imperial court is the imperial court. It handles people's livelihood and government affairs, maintains laws and regulations, and does not directly deal with business affairs... We must guard against the Ministry of Internal Affairs picking peaches. The emperor rewards the Mongolian princes with platinum brocade every year. If this is
The Ministry of Internal Affairs is under control, and it will become an imperial medicine in the future, and when added to external rewards, it can be regarded as high quality and low price..."
Brother Nine is gearing up: "I want to see who has the heart of a bear and the guts of a leopard and dares to come and grab food from my bowl..."
Shu Shu was silent and pointed upward.
Brother Ninth: "..."
He couldn't sit still anymore, and his anxiety was visible to the naked eye: "What should we do? If we really take it away, we won't be able to share much of the money we make. The big head will definitely share his precious second son..."
Shu Shu pulled Brother Jiu to sit down, with a serious look on his face: "Have you ever thought about the profits from this?"
Brother Jiu made a calculation in his mind: "There are forty-nine banners in Monan Mongolia, and each banner has more than ten or twenty households of princes and princes... Even if half of the households are sold, the forty-nine banners will still be around four hundred."
People... let’s start with the three things I mentioned before, one box of each, hawthorn pills, black sesame pills for 10 taels of silver, and Liuwei Dihuang pills for 20 taels of silver. I only bought them for trial use, which is 16,000
two……"
Brother Jiu calculated: "If we continue later, the money will continue to flow... Even if they buy it once a month, more than four hundred taels of silver in a year is just a drop in the bucket for them, but for us, it is ten dollars."
Ninety-two thousand taels of silver..."
As for the cost, materials, manpower and material resources, it is calculated as 30%.
The net profit was also 134,400 taels of silver.
Brother Jiu's breathing became rapid, and he followed Shu Shu and said the number.
"This is just Monan Mongolia, not counting Mobei... The flags in Mobei are no less than those in Monan..."
Brother Jiu grinned and couldn't help but add.
You must know that the prince's settlement expenses for opening a mansion are only two hundred and thirty thousand taels.
This amount of money, called the settlement fee, is actually the royal family's family division fee.
The Ministry of Internal Affairs terminated the supply, and in the future, food and clothing will be provided by their own salaries.
"Do you think you can eat this alone?"
Shu Shu continued to ask.
Brother Jiu sat opposite Shu Shu again and pointed upwards with his finger: "If the profit is more than ten thousand taels a year, he will not pay attention; if it is ten times as much, he will not allow it.
I couldn't find a reason to get stuck..."
Shu Shu suggested: "Then be a filial son and a filial grandson... Give the 70% of the profit to the emperor, 20%, 10% to the empress, and 10% to the empress. I will keep the remaining 30%, so that it will not be conspicuous...
"
The ninth elder brother pondered: "The Queen Mother is not short of money. Even if she takes it, she will leave it to the fifth brother. But because it is my filial piety, the most may be shared equally between me and the fifth brother... The same is true here..."
In total, his harvest is 40% of the turnover, which can be regarded as the bulk of the profit.
Brother Jiu nodded and reluctantly agreed.
It will be winter when they return to Beijing, so this plan will be implemented and it will be after spring next year, so there is no rush.
My dear brothers, let us settle the accounts.
That night, the couple had a slight dispute over next year's start-up money and equity distribution.
The ninth elder brother didn't want to touch Shu Shu's money, but he still wanted to exchange it from the tenth elder brother and the fifth elder brother.
This way, if there is a risk, you don’t have to bear it yourself...
Shu Shu didn't want to owe any more debts, especially favor debts, so she insisted on being a sole proprietor.
If you can't argue, your strength will speak for itself in the end.
After several rounds of back-and-forth, Brother Jiu finally agreed to accept Shu Shu's capital injection and was "50-50" with Shu Shu.
Shu Shu lay softly on the couch, feeling that this life can be quite tiring sometimes.
*
The next day, the team was ready to set off again.
The team on the prince's brother's side is not obvious yet.
A full set of ceremonial guards had been set up over the carriages of the Holy Master and the Queen Mother.
Shu Shu and Qi Fujin were having breakfast when Wu Fujin came over to send a message: "I just came down from the Queen Mother. The Queen Mother is wearing a robe, let's change too..."
It was getting late, so she left after saying that.
Shu Shu and Qi Fujin also hurriedly finished their clothes and changed their clothes.
As soon as she finished dressing, Brother Jiu came in with a frown and complained: "The boss just sent someone here to ask us to change into Jifu... As for that? Isn't it too embarrassing for her?"
Shu Shu had just asked someone to dig out Brother Jiu's auspicious clothes and help him put them on. He said: "Who said that more etiquette means promotion? It is also alienation. The first one was in Haraqin. The Queen Mother and the Emperor met the princess, and they were just flesh and blood.
Who treated me with such courtesy during a reunion?"
Brother Ninth Brother was still unhappy: "With that person's temperament, I don't think she deserves the respect... It's like acting in a big show, and she has to be accompanied by a lot of people..."
The team set off in this weird atmosphere.
Solemn and solemn.
Sitting comfortably in the carriage, she also felt tired.
You can usually lie down or lean in the car, or ride a horse while the sun is still shining.
Now I can only sit still.
It was a walnut, and he paid attention to the comfort of his feet and said: "Fu Jin had to wear two-inch flag shoes when wearing this auspicious suit, otherwise he would have to wear one-inch shoes now..."
Shu Shu smiled and nodded, that inch was not in vain.
Although she has no intention of growing taller in the future, Shu Shu is already satisfied.
She glanced at the box next to her, which contained three-and-a-half-inch-high flag shoes with embroidery and beads.
This is what you need to wear before arriving at the princess' mansion.
The team still rested for an hour.
When Shenchu was approaching, the residence of Prince Darhan arrived.
The carriage stopped, Shu Shu had already changed into her flag shoes, and her man carrying a walnut got out of the carriage.
She looked ahead and saw two mansions built facing each other.
In front of one of the mansions, a crowd of people stood.
The first person is wearing an autumn-colored robe.
No need to ask, this is Princess Heshuo Duanmin.
Without the joy of getting together with family members, the entire team was rigid.
Shu Shu gathered with Wu Fu Jin and Qi Fu Jin, followed the Queen Mother, Concubine Yi, Concubine Zhang and others, and watched a silent show.
Princess Duanmin walked up to her and bowed: "I have seen Huang Eni, and Huang Eni will be blessed forever..."
The Queen Mother did not help her, but instead ordered the nuns around her: "Help the princess to get up..."
The nanny accompanying the Queen Mother has been replaced by another one. She is not Aunt Bao, but Aunt Bai, whom Shu Shu had met earlier in Ningshou Palace.
Aunt Bai was ordered to help someone.
Princess Duan Min frowned and avoided it, getting up on her own.
Because the princess and Concubine Yi are equals and have the same status, Princess Duan Min should have taken the initiative to nod to Concubine Yi, and then Concubine Yi also nodded in return.
Princess Duan Min didn't even look at Concubine Yi.
Yifei's expression remained normal, but the atmosphere at the entire scene solidified.
Concubine Zhang and Princess Duan Min can still stand up to each other without any courtesy.
The two nobles and the guests, according to the rules, must take the initiative to salute Princess Duan Min.
Among them, those who promised to do so should also perform the courtesy of the king and his ministers.
Now the two noble men exchanged glances, but neither one moved.
Everyone also lowered their heads and regarded themselves as pillars.
Princess Duan Min only glanced at the nobles with disdain, then went to look at the three Fujins on the other side of the Queen Mother.
Her eyes passed over Wu Fujin, not catching her eye; they fell on Qi Fujin, with a look of disgust on her face; and finally they landed on Shu Shu, she looked at her carefully, and then she said with some satisfaction: "You are the spirit."
