Chapter 769 Heartbeat Monthly Ticket)

After finishing lunch, Shu Shu took a pen and paper and started writing recipes.

Mrs. Bo looked on and saw that she wrote "probably" and "maybe", so she knew that she was just thinking about the recipe. She must have only eaten it or read the name of the dish.

She looked at it and said: "They are all meat, so you have to eat vegetables."

Otherwise, it will be easy to get angry this winter and it will be inconvenient to relieve oneself.

Shu Shu pointed to the carrot cake and said: "This one is almost vegetarian..."

However, she still added a vegetable dish, garlic lettuce.

After calling Xiaotang, Shu Shu asked: "You don't have to do too much, just use a six-inch plate..."

These are the dishes, and the Cantonese morning tea snacks are the essence. Custard buns, bean paste buns, brown sugar cakes, siu mai, etc. can all be made with existing ingredients.

There are also matching preserved egg and lean meat porridge, chicken slices and vegetable porridge.

Shu Shu told Xiaotang once and said: "Including the pastries and side dishes, let's have ten things first in the evening, and then ten more at noon tomorrow..."

Xiaotang wrote it down and took it down to think about.

Mrs. Bo looked at Shu Shu and said, "Don't you think the taste is bland this time?"

Since she no longer suffers from bad breath and has a normal diet, Shu Shu eats chili peppers frequently.

For lunch, I had radish and beef offal hotpot, dipped in some chili oil.

Shu Shu thought for a while and said, "I still like to eat heavy food. If I can't get enough of the spicy food, I'll forget about the others once I try them."

Mrs. Bo smiled and listened, but she was a little worried.

With such a craving for spicy food, doesn’t it really follow the old saying?

She doesn't have the habit of favoring boys over girls, and she also likes soft and tender little girls. But with Shu Shu's status, giving birth to a legitimate son as soon as possible would save a lot of trouble.

Otherwise, like in Wubeile Mansion and Qibele Mansion, the eldest son of the concubine will have to go to school, and the legitimate son is still missing, which will be very troublesome in the future.

But then she saw Shu Shu serving dried plums with tea. She felt sour just looking at it, so she put down her worries.

You can't say anything about this taste. If it really works out that way, it would be a twin brother and a girl, and it would be a great joy.

Shu Shu, on the other hand, thought of the emperor's grandson's enrollment in school, so he mentioned it to Madam Bo, and said: "This wave of young brothers must be just like the wave of princes like Prince Zhi. As long as they are established, their future will be bright."

Can’t be wrong.”

Kangxi was stingy about the title of the clan, but it was a clan, not the same as the emperor's grandson.

Is it just that this wave of little brothers have all set their sights?

Honghui and the third elder brother’s eldest son both died...

The eldest son of the eldest brother died young...

Hongsheng and Hongshu were granted the title of heir apparent, and then lost their title as heir apparent...

In addition to the two of Shang, the fate of the other three people was also affected and implicated by the "Kowloon Seizing of the Progeny" incident, and their fates were ill-fated.

Maybe it was because she was going to be a mother, so thinking of this made her feel sour.

Needless to say, Honghui is cute and cute, which makes people feel heartbroken; even Hongqing is innocent and innocent at his age, looking like a beautiful girl.

Nowadays, the pattern of "Kowloon seizing the direct descendants" has gone too far. I hope everyone will be well...

Outside the inn.

Everyone had lunch, got into the carriage, and continued on their way.

After walking along the official road for more than an hour, the holy team arrived at Shunyi Palace.

Someone had been sent here long ago to prepare for the pick-up. The inside and outside were cleaned, and the room, hot water, hay, and soybeans were all prepared.

The palace manager took his subordinates with him and officials from the Ministry of Internal Affairs met him outside.

The eldest brother went with manpower to set up defense.

The ninth elder brother took the thirteenth elder brother and the fourteenth elder brother to follow Kangxi to the palace.

When Kangxi reached the entrance of the palace, he did not go in immediately, but looked back at the motorcade.

There were only three carriages in total, except for Ninth Prince's, which had four carriages, two of which were covered with linoleum.

Kangxi pointed to the two cars and asked Brother Jiu: "What are they?"

Brother Jiu proudly said: "One is just luggage and clothes, and the other is just miscellaneous items. Isn't this because my son Fujin is worried that his son will be inconvenient outside?"

This answer is not surprising, but Kangxi couldn't help but make a mental note.

When the weather gets better, I'll send some errands to Ninth Brother to see how he can still be leisurely and at ease.

The fourteenth elder brother thought about the tea at noon, and his heart was already moved when he saw the carriage. He approached the ninth elder brother and said: "Ninth brother, ninth sister-in-law must have brought you cakes, otherwise drinking tea on an empty stomach will not be good for the stomach."

OK!"

Brother Jiu nodded and said: "It doesn't take much trouble. We have a pastry shop ourselves, so we just sent someone to bring some. I thought the food outside was not to your liking, so we can deal with it by eating pastry."

The Fourteenth Brother immediately said: "Then let's try it tonight. If there are any cakes that don't suit your taste, I will make it with the Thirteenth Brother. We are not picky eaters!"

As for Ninth Brother's favorite food, he won't snatch it away, so as to save Ninth Sister-in-law's careful accounting.

Brother Jiu nodded, saw Kangxi in front of him, and said: "There is a package of mung bean cake, please don't touch it, keep it for Khan Ama..."

Mung beans reduce fire.

The thirteenth elder brother said: "Then pick out a bag of salty dumplings for the eldest brother. The eldest brother doesn't like sweet things!"

The eldest brother’s cup of ginger tea at noon was left untouched and left directly to the thirteenth brother.

Brother Jiu nodded and said: "I remember several kinds of salty pastries, beef tongue cakes, meat floss cakes, salty twists and so on..."

After everyone settled in the palace, briefly freshened up, and had dinner together in front of the emperor, there were about ten plates of cakes on the table in addition to pots and other hot dishes.

Although Kangxi was reserved, he could not help but signal Liang Jiugong to pick up a few pieces of pastry to taste when he saw how delicious the eldest brother, thirteenth brother and fourteenth brother were eating.

The meat floss cake is really good, not greasy, and tastes salty.

The beef tongue cake is too crispy and falls apart easily.

The mung bean cake tastes okay, but too sweet.

The fourteenth elder brother loved jujube cakes the most. He thought they were pretty and delicious, so he ate several pieces himself.

Thirteenth Brother prefers hawthorn guokui. The sweet pastry is sweetened with acid, which makes it more delicious.

Brother Jiu raised his eyebrows and said: "Business in Qianmen Street is good, and the shop over Di'anmen is also preparing to open. If you want to eat in the future, just send the eunuch out to buy it. We have agreed, either in cash or

Keep accounts, don’t take it for free!”

The Fourteenth Brother was surprised and said: "How much does this pack of dumplings cost? Ninth Brother, do you want to pay for it too?"

Brother Jiu hummed and said: "Of course, if you don't charge money, can it be called a transaction? Favor is a favor, and a transaction is a transaction. If I send someone to give you ten packets, that's a favor; if you send someone to get a piece of cake, then that's a favor.

It’s also a business, if they are mixed together, wouldn’t it be a mess?”

The fourteenth elder brother nodded and said: "You are right. In Beijing, relatives are trying to trick relatives. If you get it for free, you won't be able to open any shop!"

Brother Jiu thought of the restaurant on Qianmen Street and planned to open a branch on Gulou Street.

It’s just that we have to wait until the lease of the shop expires in April next year, so there’s no need to talk about it now.

Kangxi listened to his sons grinding their teeth.

Ninth Brother usually doesn't have enough brains, but those who are related to the economy will not suffer. In this way, he can make money, and he can be a wealthy and idle man in the future.

The fourteenth elder brother is not bad either. He was willful when he was young, but he is better now. He can be reasonable and not stingy.

The third child...

Thinking about Concubine Rong's behavior, mother and son were exactly the same, Kangxi really couldn't go against his conscience and say it was Chuoerji's fault.

At this time, the eldest brother had already finished a plate of beef tongue pancakes and said to the ninth brother: "The white table in our dining room is ordinary, so I will send someone over to order the pastry."

Brother Jiu immediately beamed and said, "Isn't that just right? Our shop has also prepared various fruit boxes. You can eat it by yourself, and it's decent to show favors."

The eldest brother nodded and said: "Well, as a gift, I also asked someone to add a fruit box."

The thirteenth and fourteenth elder brothers listened to Zhi Le.

Kangxi looked at Brother Jiu's calculation of three melons and two dates, and felt helpless thinking about the million taels of profit he had promised.

If you say you love money, sometimes you are like a boy who throws away money. He is stupid on the outside but not on the inside. If you say you don't love money, when it comes to business, people's energy is even stronger.

Just the profit of one million taels...

Kangxi was a little moved.

The sons were all young and ignorant of the sufferings of the world. They squandered the money they had in their hands.

When the dining table was moved away, he left Brother Jiu to talk.

Brother Jiu was a little confused. He didn't keep his precious eldest son, nor did he pay attention to his caring little son. What would he do if he was left behind?

Kangxi said bluntly: "It's been two months since I received the money back from you. How's your business going for one million taels of silver?"

After hearing this, Brother Jiu wanted to show off, but he was cautious.

He had sent back the fifty thousand taels from Yuqing Palace. What if Khan Ama knew that the profits were huge and insisted on giving him a sum at this time?

His arms couldn't twist his thighs, but he didn't want to hold his breath.

He thought about it and said: "It's a start, the plan is almost there, but I can't say how much profit will be made. Khan Ama, you are also familiar with economics, and you know that this market is like a battlefield, and it is unpredictable...

"

Kangxi glanced at him and said, "I only give you the profit share for your brothers. Do you really want to pay according to the capital?"

Brother Jiu shook his head and said: "If the profit can be divided like that according to the number planned by my son, now that the capital is at risk, it's hard to say..."

Kangxi also knew this truth and said: "You never thought about it, just treat it as an ordinary loan?"

In that case, most of the profits will be retained.

Brother Jiu looked at Kangxi and said: "It's useless for my son to ask for so much money. I told my brothers when we moved. If he goes back on his word, the son will not be able to be a good person in the future. Besides, if we really want a son,

They all have it in their pockets, which is more money than the inner treasury, so maybe someone will be concerned about it..."

Kangxi felt uncomfortable, glanced at him angrily, and said, "You are so arrogant, do you really think you are the God of Wealth?"

Brother Jiu said with a sneer: "Anyway, this time, my son will be a money-giving boy."

Mentioning this, he thought of the palace renovations.

According to the plan, it is planned to start construction after the civilization in the next year. This needs to be approved by the imperial government.

He said: "The big hot spring bank in Xiaotangshan was built by the previous dynasty. The houses are dilapidated and you haven't been there for several years. Do you think it should be repaired?"

Kangxi listened with hesitation.

In the past two years, a large amount of money has been allocated to build the North Garden of the Queen Mother.

If Xiaotangshan is repaired now, it will cost a lot of money.

Brother Ninth said proudly: "The chicken-blood stone business is starting to make money. This business is under renovation. Flowers, stones, plants and trees are the bulk of it. My son will cover it for you!"

Kangxi was in a good mood when he thought that 50% of the profit was included in it. He just reminded Brother Jiu: "This cannot be included in the transaction fee. It must be paid out of your 50% profit..."

When they were in Hangzhou, the father and son had a small game over the profit distribution.

Brother Jiu borrowed 20,000 taels from Kangxi and promised to give him 30% of the net profit.

Kangxi allowed him to use the craftsmen in the palace, and the conditions were as high as 50% of the net profit.

Only then did Kangxi mention this sentence.

Brother Jiu looked at Kangxi's fussing and wanted to tell him proudly that what he was building was not a traditional flower and stone, but a new palace.

However, looking at the emperor's father's money-grabbing behavior, he felt that he could not be foolish and generous, so he nodded and said, "I will follow your words and I will not misappropriate your money..."

snort!

Since the emperor's father is picking on him, then he should go and pick on his brothers!

According to Brother Jiu's previous plan, he would pay for the palace himself and give it directly to the brothers.

Now it seems, why are you so stupid?

My dear brothers, let us settle the accounts.

When the time comes to give everyone rebates, instead of comparing them one by one, we will first deduct the money from the palace...
