Chapter 388: Plan Ahead
Goose feather snowflakes flutter down one after another, getting bigger and bigger.
Yuxi stood in front of the window, looked at the white expanse outside, and said, "Why is it snowing again?" This is already the fifth snow this winter. As soon as it snowed, she couldn't go out, so she could only wander around the house, stuffy and panicked.
Zi Jin said with a smile: "Ruixue Zhaofeng year, it's a good thing to snow, next year will be a bumper harvest year." "Anyway, Sumire likes snow.
While he was talking, someone from outside came in and replied, "Madam, Zhuangzi has sent something over." "The things sent by Zhuangzi are all things that are needed for the New Year, such as chicken, duck, fish, meat, etc., and those that are not on Zhuangzi have already been purchased.
Han Ji came in and handed the list to Ok-hee to see.
After reading the list of twenty catties of sausages and twenty catties of bacon, Yuxi said with a smile: "This sausage and bacon are so popular, is there so much left?"
Han Ji nodded: "These two dishes are very popular, and everyone loves them." Madam, in two days I will send the account of the restaurant and the winery. ”
Yuxi nodded, and suddenly remembered what he told Yun Qing last time about going to the West Sea to buy skins: "Han Ji, the West Sea is very rich in species, there are many birds, there are many fish, and it is also rich in medicinal herbs. ”
After hearing this, Han Ji asked, "Madame wants to do a medicinal herb business, we don't have anyone who understands medicinal herbs, and if this medicinal herb business doesn't know how to do it, it's easy to be deceived?"
Yuxi shook his head and said, "I want to buy more good medicinal materials and send them back to the capital when the time comes." Although she sent some high-quality jade, it was really nothing compared to Qiu's intentions.
After a pause, Yuxi said: "Snow lotus and cordyceps are both good things, and eating them is very good for the body, I want to buy more." I think you will take the lead when the time comes, what do you think?" The people Yunqing gave were good at fighting and killing, but they couldn't do it. If Hao Dazhuang and the others are allowed to go, they will definitely be fooled. As for Han Ji, he doesn't know about medicinal materials, this Yuxi is not worried, and he is not doing a large business of medicinal materials, he just buys some for his own use, which is not difficult for Han Ji.
Han Ji was not stupid, and when he heard this, he asked, "Madam, what else do you want me to do besides buying skins and medicinal herbs?" If Madame wants good medicinal materials, she can buy good ones from Zhao's family through Guò Second Grandma Zhao. The Zhao family is a medicinal material for the army, if the lady wants it, the one sent to the lady is definitely the best, and the price is not too expensive. But the lady is willing to seek the near and far, and she will ask for something.
Yuxi was stunned for a second when he heard this, and he didn't worry about the others, and felt that Han Ji was reliable. She really didn't have any other ideas. However, Han Ji's words reminded Yuxi that some things should be planned first: "Understand the situation in the West Sea clearly, especially the places where you have walked all the way, you must remember the situation clearly." But don't leave a trace of this thing and let people notice. ”
Han Ji's heart jumped, and he said, "Madam, when will I go?" Unexpectedly, Madame had already begun to plan for the future.
Yuxi said: "Go at the beginning of spring." Take advantage of these two months, and prepare well. "Be prepared for everything, so that you can catch your opponent off guard in the future. It's a pity that there is only one Han Ji next to her who can be used, and no one else can, but I don't know what kind of person the eldest brother will send her this time. I hope to send two more capable talents like Han Ji
Han Ji nodded and said, "Okay." ”
Yuxi put the things in place, then called Xu Wu, handed him a piece of paper and said, "Send the things to these people's homes." ”
Xu Wu took the paper, looked at it and nodded, "Okay." ”
Yuxi said with a smile: "I haven't found a suitable housekeeper yet, and when I have a housekeeper after a while, I don't have to work hard for you anymore." "Now, he's calling the chief of the guard like a butler. There's no way, Yuxi can't look down on other people in the mansion. It's not that they're incompetent, it's that all of them are illiterate. How can an illiterate person be a housekeeper in a mansion.
Xu Wu didn't feel hard at all, and said: "Just move your mouth, where can you say it's hard!"
When Yunqing came back in the evening, Yuxi smiled and took out the cloak and gave it to Yunqing to try.
Yun Qing didn't like it when he saw that the cloak was jujube red, and frowned and said, "Why did you choose such a color?" He doesn't like bright clothes, he is either green or gray on weekdays, and he looks deep. It also makes people feel very depressed.
Yuxi said with a smile: "I always wear gray and ugly." "Yunqing is actually not bad-looking, but he is too unparticular.
Yun Qing said with disgust: "What do big men want to look so good?" Although he said this, he still put on his cloak honestly.
Yuxi said happily: "Tomorrow I will wear it to the barracks, and make sure that everyone who sees it will say spirit." Therefore people rely on their clothes, horses and saddles, and when they change their clothes, they are different.
Yun Qing smiled, he liked to hear this.
Taking off his cloak, Yuxi asked, "Is that matter resolved?" The incident that Yuxi said was the matter of the joint signing of the officers to be subdued.
Yun Qing nodded and said, "Qin Zhao promised everyone that in addition to new quilts next year, everyone will also be given two new sets of winter clothes. Qin Zhao promised it in front of everyone, so these people didn't make any more trouble. ”
Yuxi pouted, but she also knew that this matter could only end, after all, there was really no money in the account: "I hope Qin Zhao can fulfill his promise." ”
Yun Qing said: "Don't worry, it is impossible for him not to fulfill the promise he made in front of all the generals, otherwise he will lose his trust in 100,000 soldiers." "Without an authoritative guard, how can you lead troops to fight, let alone stick to the city.
Yuxi thought that if he died, he would not be able to cash it out, but he could only muttered in his heart, and he definitely couldn't say it: "Herui, I've always heard that the food in your military camp is unpalatable? Is it really that unpalatable?"
Yunqing smiled and said, "Wait for a chance for you to taste it." ”
Yuxi felt that such an opportunity would never be the best: "The restaurant in the Chinese New Year's Eve is going to close its doors, and the standard of the cooks in your barracks is so poor, do you want my two cooks to help them in the past?" As long as she spoke, the two masters would definitely have no objection.
Yun Qing nodded and said, "That's naturally good." "Who doesn't boast about the level of those two masters! With them to help cook, these little rabbits will definitely be so happy that they can't find the north.
Yuxi smiled, not only was she going to let the two masters help with the cooking, but she also prepared a lot of good things! I hope that these generals can have a sumptuous banquet in the Chinese New Year's Eve.
The next day, Yun Qing went to the barracks wearing the cloak that Yuxi had made for her. On the way, I happened to meet Fu Tianlei.
Fu Tianlei looked at the cloak on Yun Qing's body, walked over and pointed to the ancient pattern on it, and asked, "What is this?
Yunqing smiled and said, "I don't know about this. "He just wears it, and he still cares about what is embroidered on it, it won't be a bad thing anyway.
Fu Tianlei punched Yun Qing and said, "This dress is worn on the body, spirit." If you used to envy me, now I envy you. Seeing your daughter-in-law pick you up, it's really eye-catching!" His daughter-in-law is not bad, it's just, cough, people are more popular than people, and goods have to be thrown away!
Yunqing smiled and said, "Don't be dissatisfied. ”
Fu Tianlei came to find Yun Qing on purpose, and said: "I heard that your restaurant closes to rest on the second day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, is it true?" Seeing Yun Qing nodding, Fu Tianlei said: "Our brother is not polite, borrow your cook for me for two days." "The cooking skills of the two chefs in the restaurant are really speechless. Fu Tianlei has to visit several times a month, but although the consumption of the restaurant is not high, the price of those signature dishes is not low. Fu Tianlei wanted to take this opportunity to invite home and let their cooks secretly learn.
Yun Qing listened and said with a smile: "Then you can say late, my wife said that the Chinese New Year's Eve asked these two masters to go to the barracks to help cook, so that the brothers can have a good meal." ”
Fu Tianlei didn't regret hearing this, and said: "Isn't there still the first and second days of junior high school? I'm not so unkind, let them rest well on the first day of junior high school, and cook us a meal at noon on the second day of junior high school, what do you think?"
Yun Qing didn't agree, and said, "This cook is my wife's person, I want to ask his opinion first." "Yun Qing has never been the master of Yuxi, like things and people to marry, Yun Qing feels that he should have asked Yuxi to become a man, otherwise he feels disrespectful to Yuxi.
Fu Tianlei was not angry, and said with a smile: "Nacheng, I am waiting for your good news." Fu Tianlei felt that with his friendship with Yunqing, Yuxi would definitely not refuse such a trivial matter.
When Yun Qing arrived at the barracks and told his subordinate Captain Wu Shou that the chef of the restaurant would come to help the cook on the Chinese New Year's Eve, Captain Wu Shou snorted and said, "Madame is really a bodhisattva!" The restaurant opened by Yuxi, and Yun Qing's subordinates basically went there. Now that these two chefs can come and cook Chinese New Year's Eve dinner for them, they don't have to eat the same food as pig food. There are only two cooks, and they can't cook for all officers and soldiers, and only officers of a certain rank have this qualification.
Guo Xun scolded with a smile: "Hurry up and go down to do things." ”
When Captain Wu heard this, he ran out happily and told the other brothers the good news, and everyone who heard the news was also very happy.
Seeing this, Huo Changqing asked, and after knowing the cause, he nodded. When he entered the house, he saw that Yun Qing was looking down at the map, and said with a smile: "This cloak is very good-looking." "It's so stinky and beautiful that I can't take it off when I enter the house.
Yun Qing smiled and said, "Yuxi also made one for you, you can wear it when you go back." Huo Changqing was in the barracks for the past two days and did not go back.
Huo Changqing smiled and said, "It's stained with your light." "Every time Yuxi prepares something for Yunqing, he will also buy one for Huo Changqing, like clothes, it is the same. The only difference is that Yunqing's clothes are all from Yuxi's hands, and Huo Changqing's clothes are all made by maids.
Yunqing was also in a good mood: "What is Uncle Huo talking about? Her filial piety to you is equivalent to my filial piety to you." "Husband and wife are one!
Huo Changqing is not such a hypocritical person, he will wear it when he is given it, and he has never shirked it, this time it is just a casual remark. After listening to Yunqing's words, there was a look of relief on his face.
