Chapter 688: The Emperor Likes It Too
The old man's face began to change.
The further he walked, the more his face softened, and not only him, but also the people who followed him, all smelled the pungent aroma.
It smells so good that it should be more enticing than when you eat it.
The old man walked closer and saw the gray-faced Huang Xiaoxian, who almost didn't recognize her, not only was he a little angry.
At this time, Huang Xiaoxian, where is there still the appearance of the young grandmother of Baifu, she has already thrown her clothes aside, and the clothes inside are also black because of a few pots of budding rice flowers, especially her face, which has long been black and gray, and then look at the Ninth Young Master who is busy in front of and behind her, she is even worse than her, and the master's heart is about to break.
But Huang Xiaoxian handed him a handful of bud rice flowers and said, "Master, madam, you taste it, if it's delicious, let's sell it, a bag of more silver taels, someone will definitely buy it." ”
The old man glared at him, inhaled the aroma, and involuntarily ate one, it was really a good thing, the entrance was sweet and soft and crunchy, and there was a lingering fragrance in the mouth for a long time.
Madame didn't want to eat at all, and watched them grasp it with their hands, but she couldn't stand the temptation of the aroma, so she still put one in her mouth.
Madame knew that Huang Xiaoxian had won again, this thing was too tempting.
The people who came with them were already in a hurry, and each of them tasted it, and all of them were speechless for such a good taste, and even the lady ate one after another.
Huang Xiaoxian put sugar in the bud rice, although she didn't put much, but she also made the little girl around her feel distressed enough, she said that sugar is not easy to get.
Huang Xiaoxian waved his hand and said, "I have decided, the next step, to produce sugar." ”
The maid servants who followed him were all stupid, and they didn't know whether the young grandmother was a happy life or a working life. It seems that she has a natural reluctance to work.
The old man didn't have anything to do with her, and there were novelties in her mind every day, such as this little corn, which was not eye-catching at all in the Gaomen clan, but after passing through her hands, it suddenly became different.
In fact, the subordinates of the Qian Dynasty also like to fry the corn with fire to eat, but the sand inside cannot be removed, so the nobles did not eat it, and Huang Xiaoxian is different, not only clean but also has a unique taste, especially the sweetness inside, no one knows how to get it in.
The old man didn't care to blame her, although he also felt that this thing was a bit of a small fight, but it was still useful to solve the urgent need.
Huang Xiaoxian can only produce stupidly, but the old man is not, he has a fine plan, and when he comes, he doesn't know where to go, he thinks that this Huang Xiaoxian is really a bit immortal.
Before he came, he had already discussed with his wife, and if it really didn't work, he would use the ancestral property.
The things in the treasury are basically handed down by the ancestors, and they are generally not touched by the big families until the last resort, and it is also disrespectful and unfilial to the ancestors.
The Bai family's family property, the second master is the least, and the things in the palace are not here, and the rest of the things are not valuable.
Now, the ancestral property doesn't need to be moved, but the master can't stand the explosion of this kind of machine collapse, not to mention their own home, even the people across the wall come to ask what their family is doing?
Madame was more thoughtful than the old man, and she even discussed with the old man whether to make small bags and sell things, and she said that the things in the old store in front of her were particularly popular.
But the old man also has his own plans.
He whispered to his wife: "If we send things to the time-honored store, we will save a lot of things, but how much can he give? I don't know how much to deduct, I have a good way, this thing is unique in the Qian Dynasty, we also have to pay the price, but publicity, it depends on the palace." ”
The lady disagreed, and said, "Master, how can you be linked to business?
The old man said: "If you get the emperor's approval, can you still make people laugh?"
Madame cautiously asked, "Is this all right?"
"Don't worry, I'll take care of it. ”
The old man put the machine on the back hill overnight, and let people work constantly, and he called many people to start bagging.
The old man himself specially made a pot of special bud rice, that is, put a lot of sugar, and he took the pot to the morning the next day.
The lord did not take one or two bags, and he deliberately walked around among the courtiers.
Sure enough, several people were asking each other what it smelled like, and why did it smell so good?
Just when the emperor was about to go to court, he found that the ministers below were a little different from usual, so he asked curiously, "What are you doing?"
A few people immediately said that they smelled a particularly strange but nice smell.
Huang Xiaoxian also tried it and said sure enough.
The matter of the master's release from prison ended so easily, the emperor did not give any explanation, the master did not ask a word, and he did not say a word about any wrongs.
But all the people in the court knew that it was Lord Bai who had offended people, and as for who it was, there were too many versions in circulation.
The prime minister played three books in a row in the court, and participated in the Shaoqing Xue Hong of Dali Temple, that is, the person who reported Master Bai.
It's better if he doesn't do this, his exaggerated behavior makes Master Bai more aware that the person behind it must be him.
Xue Hong was exiled to the south, but as Master Bai thought, he came back after ten months, and he was promoted to one level, of course, this is all for later.
The lord finally stood up and presented the bud rice flower that had been prepared long ago to the emperor.
The emperor asked, "What is this?"
"It's a food made from corn. ”
The emperor threw one into his mouth, and immediately his eyebrows stretched, and the expression on his face was also sunny, and the old man of the Bai family immediately became refreshed.
Huang Xiaoxian's budding rice flowers were completely unexpectedly good, first the emperor couldn't put it down, and the next day he couldn't wait to ask: "Bai Aiqing, are there any things from yesterday?"
Everyone in the court knew what the emperor said, but they didn't think about it yesterday, but they didn't expect that this was really a good thing, and it made the emperor love it.
Master Bai knew this, and pretended to be mysterious and said: "Your Majesty, there are things, but the cost is too expensive." Your Majesty, you share it with your harem family, I am willing to dedicate it, but ......"
"Say it, what do you want. The emperor thought to himself, is it just corn, what's the big deal.
Corn was not a valuable thing at all in the Qian Dynasty, and the nobles hardly ate it.
Master Bai said: "I want sugar, this thing is too rare." ”
Shu sugar, in ancient times, only this kind of sugar, and sugar is not close, but it is also very precious.
