Chapter Eighty-Seven: April in the World is Exhausted

Zhao Jin didn't expect that just three days later, Zhao Hao's prophecy of 'the full dynasty tilted' came true.

On the fourth day of the fourth month of April, the officials of Nanjing's science and technology suddenly discussed the many crimes of Gao Gong again in the name of Jingcha Pickup!

On the fifth day of the fourth month, Ouyang Yijing, the imperial historian of Beijing, once again went to the impeachment of Gao Gong as 'an authoritative courtier, specializing in the authority of the country', and demanded that he be deposed as the people!

On the eighth day of the first month of April, Nanjing Yushi Li Fupin and others jointly impeached Gao Gong for five evil things!

Every time he was impeached, Gao Gong wrote a letter to ask for retreat according to the rules, and the emperor naturally tried his best to comfort him.

Seeing that Gao Gong still can't go. On April 20, Li Zhenyuan of Beijing Engineering gave another book, and the harsh sarcasm of Gao Gong was as thick as a city wall, and he was repeatedly impeached and repeatedly asked for resignation, but every time he was retained, he made a triumphant comeback the next day, which has become a joke in the world. I hope the emperor can promise him to retreat next time, and don't let him continue to come out and be embarrassed......

Throughout April, this big drama of the Wheel War against Gao Xinzheng in the Imperial History of the North and South Beijing affected the nerves of the whole world. Zhao Jin was in the Nanjing Metropolitan Procuratorate, and he was eager to try several times, wanting to go to the book or co-sign the impeachment of Gao Gong, but he was persuaded by Zhao Hao.

What are you kidding, can you wade through this muddy water? Gao Gong was about to go into the wilderness, but he was killed two years later, and he was the first to serve as the first assistant and heavenly official, taking life and death, and monopolizing power! If Zhao Jin offended the cautious Gao Xinzheng because of his father and son, there would definitely be no good fruit for him to eat at that time!

Therefore, Zhao Hao had to let Zhao Jin stay out of the matter no matter what, so as not to affect his brother's career in the future.

Fortunately, Zhao Hao's prediction of 'Manchu Dynasty Tilting' was too accurate, so Zhao Jin attached great importance to his opinion, so he did not get involved in this big drama.

However, this also made Zhao Jin completely believe that Zhao Hao was wholeheartedly and without any selfish intentions for his old brother.

Zhao Jin secretly made up his mind that no matter what the past days were, he would treat Zhao Hao as his own brother......

~~

Of course, treating Zhao Hao as a brother seems to have only benefits and no harm.

It's the end of the month in a blink of an eye, and the day of the first month of Weijixian's opening has arrived.

After the day closed, the shopkeeper Fang told everyone to go upstairs to find the owner to collect the money after they were done.

The cheers resounded throughout the restaurant, this month was very fresh, everyone in the store was busy early and late, waiting for this moment!

Shopkeeper Fang specially stopped Ma Xianglan, who was about to leave, and said, "Miss Ma, our host invites you to go up first." ”

"Okay." Ma Xianglan nodded, and then leaned on the railing to go up to the second floor.

~~

On the second floor, the word 'spring' is in the private room.

Zhao Hao was holding the fragrant tea in his hand, and he was facing the ledger.

Although he has been making a monthly profit since the first day, the money has really arrived in the account and fallen into his pocket, which still makes people happy and can't close his mouth.

For 30 days last month, after deducting the free reward on the first day, it was open for 29 days, and the restaurant was full every day, with a total income of 4,060 taels of silver.

Of course, the high cost of income is not low. The biggest expense comes from the cost of ingredients.

If you want to pursue the ultimate umami, you can't just rely on the best fresh powder, but also use the freshest and finest ingredients. Meat and vegetarian ingredients, wine, tea, firewood, rice, oil and salt and various condiments purchased from all over Jinling City throughout April...... A total of 1,740 taels were spent, an average of three taels per table.

Then there is the wages paid to the two chefs, two assistant chefs, four runners, and Wu Yu and his wife. The chef paid five taels of silver a month, and the rest of the people were two taels, a total of twenty-six taels.

There are also miscellaneous items such as lamp oil, candles, incense sticks, etc., plus a certain amount of wear and tear, and the payment of officials, almost a total of 60 taels.

After deducting expenses, the total balance for the month was 2,234 taels......

Looking at the balance figures, Zhao Hao couldn't help but whistle, although this transaction is not as profitable as sugar, it is better to be stable and low-risk, but it is a chicken that keeps laying golden eggs!

Just as he was triumphant, there was a knock on the door.

Zhao Hao closed the ledger. After putting away his unproductive smile and recovering his unfathomable appearance, Fang coughed lightly and said, "Come in." ”

The box door opened, and with a faint fragrance, Ma Xianglan walked in.

"Childe, you're looking for me."

"Miss Ma, please be seated." Zhao Hao smiled and nodded.

Ma Xianglan sat down opposite him and waited quietly for Zhao Hao's instructions.

Zhao Hao didn't know where to open for a while. In the past month, Ma Xianglan has been in decline for a day, and she has come to play the piano every day until she closes.

But Zhao Hao didn't speak more than ten sentences with her.

It's not that Ma Xianglan has a cold personality, on the contrary, she is a very cheerful girl and never puts on the shelf of Qinhuai's female history. Not long after coming to the store, I became familiar with everyone in Weijixian, and became good friends with Siya.

It's because Zhao Hao has a weak heart and always avoids her.

He was weak not because he copied Ma Xianglan's poems, but because he was worried that Sister Ma, who loves poetry, would ask him for advice on how to compose poems and fill in the lyrics after the two became acquainted.

Is this still a good one? Ma Xianglan taught him about the same.

So Zhao Hao is at home all day long, and it is easy not to come to the restaurant. Even if he came to the restaurant, he took advantage of the fact that Miss Ma was busy playing the piano, and after watching the flowers, she smeared oil on the soles of her feet and fled.

This feeling of being a thief is really unpleasant, and Zhao Hao is ready to make an end today.

"In the past month, Miss Ma has really helped us a lot, and I can't repay it."

Zhao Hao took out a piece of poetry from his sleeve, handed it to Ma Xianglan and said, "Just give this little poem to the girl as a souvenir." ”

Ma Xianglan was slightly stunned, she was very good-hearted, how could she not understand the meaning of Zhao Hao's words?

She took the poem with both hands, carefully tucked it in her sleeve, and did not read it on the spot.

"Thank you for the reward, if you are sent in the future, just order Xianglan."

Then she said a blessing to Zhao Hao, and quietly retreated.

Seeing Miss Ma leave happily, Zhao Hao breathed a sigh of relief, the money and goods were gone, and the cooperation ended.

Finally, I don't have to worry about it all day.

~~

In that compartment, Ma Xianglan carried the poem and made a very fresh taste, and the carriage was already waiting outside the door.

As soon as she got into the car, the little maid with her double bun was full of smiles, holding a heavy plate of silver ingots, and offered her treasures:

"Girl, look, Shopkeeper Fang just gave two hundred taels of silver."

This plate of silver ingots is ten or two, there are twenty pieces, under the illumination of the glass lamp on the roof of the car, the white flowers are a piece, and it is very lovely.

This was naturally handed over by Zhao Hao to the shopkeeper Fang. Even if Ma Xianglan doesn't come to help for money, but the coachman and maid still have daily expenses, so she can't let her post the money herself, right?

The shopkeeper told Zhao Hao that a musician like Ma Xianglan, who is not a member of the Teaching Division, has to pay 20 taels of fat powder to the Teaching Division every month. In addition, it is necessary to give an official of the Ministry of Education and the Ministry of Rites, eighty taels of filial piety per month, in exchange for relative personal freedom.

Therefore, if you want to be a good-natured and unrestrained Qingqi person, the price is one hundred taels per month......

In addition, the coachman, maid, grandmother, incense powder, jewelry, food, clothing, housing, etc., have to spend 50 taels a month.

Therefore, Zhao Hao gave two hundred taels.

Not too much, not too little...... Of course, this money can't be given to her directly, otherwise it will be too humiliating.
