Yao Wenxuan laughed, seeing that Qu Zhong was really about to jump, so he stopped teasing him and quickly waved his hands.

"The really good horse will be here soon. This is a filly that was eliminated from the hunting ground. She is too docile."

Speaking of which, this is also the fourth prince's idea, one is to amuse Qu Zhong, and the other is to find a safe place for these horses.

Without exception, these horses are small and docile, not suitable for galloping in the hunting grounds.

If you don't find a place for them, I'm afraid they will fall into the mouths of those guards.

It just so happened that Qu Zhong wanted horses, so the fourth prince offered to buy them for him, and the prerequisite was to find a place for these ponies to settle down.

Of course Yao Wenxuan readily agreed.

"docile..."

After grinding these two words, Qu Zhong had another idea.

Isn't this just right for those tall girls to ride, maybe it just comes in handy!

"Yes, I can raise these horses, but..."

After prolonging the ending, Qu Zhong looked at Yao Wenxuan: "If the horses are cheaper, I have to buy fodder for these horses."

Of course, if you seize the opportunity, you should save some money. Although he is not short of money, isn't the fourth prince richer?

"You bastard...this is a gift from me."

Yao Wenxuan kicked Qu Zhong angrily, he was shameless, he didn't know where he learned it, he could even bargain with the prince, he couldn't afford to lose that man.

"You are really my good brother."

Immediately copying what Du Chengji said yesterday, Qu Zhong beat Yao Wenxuan's back like a dog.

"Go away, go away."

Impatiently walking a few steps forward, Yao Wenxuan's face was terribly gloomy.

If outsiders saw it, they would definitely think that someone offended him, but Qu Zhong knew that whether this guy was really angry or arrogant, he always had this expression.

Obviously, it belongs to the second type now.

"Come on, call Du Chengji, let's eat hot pot today."

Reluctantly leaning forward again, Qu Zhong brazenly put his arms around Yao Wenxuan's neck.

To deal with this tsundere villain, Qu Zhong thinks thick skin is the best weapon.

No, even though his mouth was still pouted, Yao Wenxuan didn't break free, so he was dragged to the restaurant by Qu Zhong with a face full of reluctance.

While walking, he complained to Qu Zhong: "You actually let little fat man Du Chengji live in Zhuangzi."

Tsk tsk, this is naked jealousy.

"The little fat man is here to work."

"What is part-time work?"

"Just being a servant."

"That's more or less."

September [-]th.

It was an ordinary day in Tianqi Dynasty, people lived as usual, and the streets were full of hawking and bustling.

Sudden.

The largest shop on Zhenggan Street, Du Ji grocery store, began to hang red silk, and the work in the shop moved a few tables to the street.

Then, baskets covered with red cloth began to be placed on the table one after another.

There are also high-quality lacquered wooden boxes, carved with complicated patterns, neatly arranged in two stacks.

Then, the shopkeeper stood on the side of the street with a gong in his hand.

thump--

thump--

thump--

With the sound of the gong, many people gradually gathered around.

The shopkeeper coughed a few times and waved back.

"This is the new fruit of our Du Ji today, let's take a look."

As the red cloth was untied, neatly arranged berries appeared in front of everyone.

This bright red color, coupled with the sesame-like dots, and the occasional sweet smell passing through the nose, immediately attracted people who came to watch the excitement.

"Look what that is."

The timid ones mutter to their companions in a low voice, for fear of exposing their ignorance.

The brave one asked the shopkeeper directly: "Shopkeeper Zhang, what is this?"

The long shopkeeper smiled mysteriously, and the waiter behind him immediately brought up a small plate.

On the plate were small strawberries cut in half, the smallest batch.

The person who asked the question couldn't help but swallowed his saliva. Knowing that it was the shopkeeper's order for him to taste, he carefully twisted a piece and fed it into his mouth.

"Mmm... delicious, delicious."

He licked his fingers with unsatisfied desire, the man resisted the urge to take another piece, and exclaimed.

Seeing this, the people around immediately stretched out their hands to grab it.

Those who are greedy for petty gains took advantage of the chaos to grab a few more yuan, turned around and ran towards their home.

The shopkeeper was not annoyed, he just kept watching with a smile on his face, and when the plate was finally emptied, he spoke again:

"This berry is sold for one tael of silver a catty today, and it will return to the original price of two taels of silver a catty tomorrow."

The shopkeeper stroked his beard and stretched out his index finger in satisfaction.

"It's so expensive...too expensive."

When the onlookers heard the price, they immediately gave up their plans to buy a catty and go home.

Although the people living in the city still have no worries about food and clothing, it is too extravagant to spend a tael of silver to buy some small fruits.

The shopkeeper was not in a hurry, just waiting for the crowd to disperse.

At the beginning, the master said that there are only a few people who can afford to buy berries, and those who stay are their real customers.

"Shopkeeper, how are these sold?"

Sure enough, some left, and some stayed, and the ones who stayed were the housekeepers of rich families just by their clothes.

"Those seven taels of silver are a catty."

Pointing to the neatly arranged berries in the wooden box, the shopkeeper said that the berries in this box were more than twice as big as those in the basket.

This wooden box was custom-made, it can hold about a catty, and it looks very luxurious.

"Put me five boxes." The housekeeper who asked the price took out the money richly and handed it to shopkeeper Zhang without looking at it.

This kind of rare thing, bought back will definitely make the old lady happy, this fruit is soft, it must be to the old lady's taste.

"Okay...five boxes."

The guy's drawn-out sound spread across the street, attracting a second batch of onlookers.

And these Qu Zhong didn't know that he was locked in the Zhuangzi and was buried in teaching the chefs how to cook.

Let alone the stir-fried dishes of the Tianqi Dynasty.

Qu Zhong is now teaching them how to stir-fry green vegetables until they are green and tender.

"Yes, the firewood needs to be strong."

The kitchen is very hot in summer, Qu Zhong is wearing a short jacket, directing work to add firewood to the stove.

Red flames burst out, shining red on everyone's faces.

Fortunately, it was not too expensive at the beginning. Both sides are made of windows, and both sides are opened to allow air convection, so that no one in the kitchen suffers from heat stroke.

"You can start cooking when the color changes from light to dark."

Wipe the sweat off his forehead, Qu Zhong ordered.

The craftsmanship of these invited chefs is nothing to say, but it is completely different from the spicy food restaurant that Qu Zhong wants to eat.

So these days, he had to teach these people how to cook spicy dishes.

Finally, a competitive employment mode is proposed.

If the spicy dish created by the chef himself passes Du Chengji's evaluation, it can become a dish in the restaurant.

If a customer orders it in the future, part of the price of this dish will be given to the chef as monthly money.

This is also the commission system that Qu Zhong thought of.

The more you work, the more you get, the quicker your brain, the more money you will earn.

"Qu Zhong, this dish is not bad."

Holding chopsticks in his hand, Du Chengji pointed to a dish full of chili peppers in front of him: "This is chili duck cubes."

"is it?"

Walking over to taste it, Qu Zhong also felt very satisfied, these chefs are indeed professional.

One dish of spicy chicken can be used by analogy. This dish of chili duck is more chewy than chicken.

"Yes, sign up."

As soon as Qu Zhong waved his hand, Chang Yun behind him held up a small notebook and immediately wrote it down.

After memorizing it, I couldn't wait to go forward and tasted two mouthfuls, sticking out my tongue spicyly while eating.

After staying with the second young master in Zhuangzi for half a year, Chang Yun recently felt that his belt was a bit short.

but...

After taking a look at Young Master Du who was already round, he immediately felt relieved.

After these dishes are ready, they are piled up on the big table in the kitchen. Anyway, as long as Qu Zhong said it is written down, everyone can try it, and then they will know why this dish is on the list.

"Okay, keep an eye on Chang Yun's side, and I'll go to the teahouse."

Wiping the sweat off his forehead again, Qu Zhong stepped out of the kitchen.

The day Qu Zhao asked someone to calculate was the sixth day of October, which was an auspicious day, suitable for opening a business.

So now there are only twenty days left, and Qu Zhong is as busy as a spinning top.

With a mouth full of oil, Du Chengji also followed Qu Zhong out of the kitchen.

Following Qu Zhong's example, he also wore a short jacket, and the white flesh on his stomach was squeezed out from the seams.

Qu Zhong was on his way to work, so he just went for a walk after he was full.

"The scripts you wrote are so beautiful."

There was no place to put a handkerchief, so Du Chengji simply lifted up the hem of his clothes and wiped his mouth.

Qu Zhong's scripts for those storytellers are really good-looking. He stayed up late a few days ago and only read half of it.

"Then you should settle the accounts for me after reading it, and see how much money I spent hiring these people."

Turning back and knocking on Du Chengji's head, Qu Zhong shook his head helplessly.

This guy has only been here for more than half a month, and he seems to be rounder again. If he doesn't find something to do for him, I'm afraid it will grow longer.

and...

Du Chengji's ability to settle accounts is really too strong, and he is not stupid if he puts such a useful brain to use.

These days, the Xu family bought people, and he bought some live deeds from Yao Wenxuan.

Now there are hundreds of people in this Zhuangzi.

The big win guy is now managing these people's food, clothing and housing in the backyard.

Da Ying is very happy to be doing this job now. It not only fulfills his long-cherished wish of being the second in command, but also satisfies his habit of chattering.

Now I can only see this guy when I go back to the yard every day.

During the day, the ears were finally quiet.

With Changfeng and Luo Xiaoer, one is in charge of the restaurant, teahouse and inn in front.

One manages the rear plantings and horse paddocks.

He only comes to Qu Zhong when he needs to make up his mind, so now he has so much time to complete these details.

"All right, then I'll do the math for you."

Du Chengji patted his stomach and reluctantly agreed.

As the saying goes, eating people is short-sighted. He has lived in for more than half a month, and his mother has not sent anyone to send money. He eats and drinks for free all day long. It is really time to do something to offset the meal money.

Qu Zhong: Am I looking for abuse for myself?

Du Chengji: Who told you to put up with my brother.

On the sixth day of October, the weather was very sunny.

Before dawn, Qu Zhao urged Xu, who was still putting on makeup, "Hurry up, or you won't miss the auspicious time."

"It's almost over, today is a good day for Zhong'er, I, a mother, can't embarrass him."

Xu smeared lipstick on her lips, and finally got up with satisfaction and walked around in front of the bronze mirror.

Today is the opening day of Son Zhijun Pavilion, they have invited quite a few honorable families, and they cannot be compared by the wives who went there.

"I don't know if mother is ready, I'll go and see."

Thinking of Luo Shi who had finally agreed to go, Qu Zhao turned around and went to Luo Shi's yard.

"You also go to see if the third young master is ready."

Xu's expression paused, thinking of Qu Gao.

The child's temperament has changed a lot since he returned home last time, and he finally succeeded in proposing marriage as he wished. Now he is locked in the yard every day and says he wants to study hard.

Hey!

If he hadn't vowed to treat Gao'er as his own son back then, he wouldn't have such a headache now.

It is a big taboo for a concubine to act like a concubine in the mansion.

But Qu Showa and she couldn't say anything.

after all...

Her life was saved by Qu Gao's aunt, and their husband and wife owe him.
