Chapter 1238: Show Food (Thirteen)
In Zhao Xu's heart, there is no big taboo about Yang Huairen marrying a Khitan princess, although Yang Huairen does not go to the court and does not participate in politics, but his contribution to the court is not a lot.
Even if you don't mention that he ran errands for the emperor several times and three times, and silently made contributions in the great victory over Western Xia, the profits and taxes paid by Yang Huairen's business to the government every year are an astonishing figure.
Zhao Xu knew that Yang Huairen was very rich, and he had a rough idea of the specific amount, but he was not worried that Yang Huairen's money would have nowhere to spend, since he had made a decree to let him build a foreign trade base, it was to let him spend a lot of money.
Yang Huairen spent money, and the imperial court can get a lot of benefits from this matter, commercial taxes are always indispensable, in places where the imperial court couldn't earn a penny in the past, a large amount of commercial taxes can be collected in the future, Zhao Xu feels that this is a profitable business.
And every time he thought that he could make a profit from Yang Huairen, he was complacent, but he didn't know that the benefits Yang Huairen would get in the future were something he couldn't imagine.
Looking at this matter at a higher level, the focus is on the originally barren places in Western Xia newly occupied by the Great Song Dynasty, which will achieve economic development and long-term peace and stability because of the construction of commercial and trade bases.
Most of the people there are Han people, as long as they have land to plant and food to eat, they can honestly not cause trouble for Zhao Xu, and after a long time, they will be Song people.
This is also all due to Yang Huairen.
However, some people in the court, as if they would never be used to Yang Huairen, did not mention anything about his contributions to the court, and only talked about his marriage to the Khitan princess and his secret contacts with the Khitan envoys.
Zhao Xu refused to listen to it at first, but he couldn't grind the group of people buzzing in his ears like flies every day, so he had to treat this matter coldly, and he snubbed Yang Huairen.
In fact, Zhao Xu knew in his heart that a new interest collective in the court was gradually forming, and those officials who stood up to denounce Yang Huairen were just the tongues of some people.
Zhao Xu knew that they were afraid that Yang Huairen's status would become higher and higher, and he would one day enter the court to compete with them for limited power and interests.
Yang Huairen also understands that such a result is inevitable, no matter how unwilling he is to get involved in the bullshit in the court, but no matter how many times he says it, it is difficult for others to believe it.
Because in the hearts of those people, there is no one in this world who is not obsessed with power, and although Yang Huairen has an eccentric temperament, he is no exception.
Yelu Bawotai did so many things, the purpose was to make Yang Huairen not get the reuse of the Great Song court, and one day in the future, he would finally submit to their powerful Great Liao State.
Yang Huairen thought it was funny that Yelu Bawotai, an old boy, was calculating him all day long, but he would never have thought of his precious princess daughter, but now he was calculating him in his heart.
Every day when the ghost sister sees Yang Huairen, the eyes that shoot over are engraved with words, as for what words are engraved, everyone should understand, that sentence is also very popular in later generations, called "I want to give you a monkey".
Other women give birth to children, whether it is to pass on the ancestry, in order to have a place to put the surging maternal love in their chests, it is always not like a ghost sister, giving birth to a child is to train him to become a new generation of the lord of Liao, and then replace her dear father.
Therefore, Yang Huairen felt that a woman like Sister Ghost, since she couldn't afford to provoke her, it was better to meet her needs.
There is just one point, Yang Huairen's previous four daughters-in-law were all pregnant with children relatively early, but here is the ghost sister, Yang Huairen has been working hard for a long time, and there has been no movement.
Yang Huairen sometimes wonders, after these days of research, he feels that there is no obvious difference between the body structure of Caucasian beauties and yellow beauties, and his skills and movements are also beyond the existence of thousands of years, as for the ghost sister's stomach has not moved, he feels very unreasonable.
Thinking about it later, Yang Huairen laughed, this kind of thing can't be too anxious, just let it be, mixed-race babies may be very hypocritical, come later, it's not too strange.
Whenever Yang Huairen ponders a new dish alone, Er Ya is the happiest person in Yang's house, and as Yang Huairen's special food tasting specialist, Er Ya can always give the most incisive advice.
This time, Yang Huairen wants to make a show of ice drinks, of course, he still has to rely on Erya's tricky mouth to try, if her opinion alone is not enough to explain the problem, then let Erya call a few more of her so-called little brothers from Zhuangzi.
A few days later, when Yang Huairen fed the children with various ice drinks, his ice drink show was finally completed.
Of course, the memories of his later life helped him a lot.
So he drew a few drawings and began to instruct the craftsmen in Zhuangzi to prepare the tools he needed in a few days, and at the same time, he also sent someone to Suiyuan to tell Wang Mingyuan about the plan, and set a date for Yang Huairen to play a food show.
Suiyuan was busy, and the first thing was to post a notice that the owner of Suiyuan, Yang Huairen, the king of the north, was going to hold a food appraisal meeting in Suiyuan in three days.
The venue is in the new store that Suiyuan has newly bought and installed, and it is also the opening ceremony for the new store.
This new store is actually across the river, next door to Juyuan, and the building scale is larger than Juyuan, because Suiyuan has always taken the business route of chain cooperation, so it has not opened a branch.
But Wang Mingyuan thinks that Suiyuan should still expand its business area, and a store will continue to expand its storefronts and provide more places for customers to eat, so that Suiyuan can also make more profits.
However, for the sake of the diners' experience, although the new store is large, it cannot be limited to the number of people who can enter, and the number of guests allowed to enter the food fair in the plan can only be arranged for 300 places.
One-third of them are to invite some princes, nobles and eunuchs in the city who like food, that is, to use their status and fame to increase the influence of Suiyuan's new dishes.
The other third is to invite some famous gourmets and owners or shopkeepers of famous restaurants to cheer the party, and the last third is provided to diners, but it is also in line with the principle of giving priority to regular customers in the garden.
When Suiyuan was busy, Lai Xiaonian stood outside the door, he came every day, and he had been here for seven days in a row.
Wang Mingyuan and Yang Lotian didn't accept him, but they didn't refuse him either, so they let him wait in the shade of the willow tree outside the door, and even gave him a small bench to sit on.
Lai Xiaonian seemed to have caught something from their attitudes, and he believed even more what the young cook told him that day, as long as the sincerity was true, the iron pillar would be almost sharpened into a needle.
