Chapter 164: Breaking through the Army
"Oh, okay, how much is the deposit?"
He doesn't really care about gifts or anything, but it's better to have it.
"Fifty taels."
Thinking about the deposit she wanted, she still explained, "This moon cake can't be left for a long time, otherwise it will be broken, and many of the materials in it are very valuable...... Please note in advance that the deposit is non-refundable if the return is booked. ”
"Well, it won't." Young men don't care about the Tao, today's world is also okay to call a 'prosperous age', and their Ministry of Rites is not short of these two hundred taels of silver, which is less than the holiday gifts bought in previous years.
"Is there anything else to do, if not, I have other things to do."
Tian Qingan waved his hand, "No, my lord, go get busy, on the morning of the twelfth, I will send the freshest mooncakes over on time!" ”
After that, he stuffed an oiled paper bag handed over by Uncle Muramasa to the young man, "The small shop sells moon cakes, and there is nothing else, you take eight moon cakes, go home and give them to your family to taste, if it is delicious, come again, there will be new flavors every day, and tomorrow will launch a children's version of moon cakes, and there are children at home who can bring them over to see, make sure your children like it." ”
The young man took it from Shanruliu, "Tomorrow I will ask the family to bring the children over to have a look!" ”
"Okay, welcome at any time."
Seeing off this lord of the Ministry of Rites, Tian Qing looked at the void in the distance, do you want to go to the other five departments to sell it?
Daxia is still very rich, even the prison will give gifts every New Year's Festival, not to mention the six departments of the big one, and they must also send things, in addition to rice, flour, grain and oil, moon cakes on the Mid-Autumn Festival, and zongzi on the Dragon Boat Festival......
It's still very promising to think about.
I took out the knife carved in my pocket and went to the backyard to wash it, then turned out a few blue and white porcelain plates that were only beautiful for the New Year, and took a few pieces of oiled paper, and the moon cakes in the basket of one hundred and fifty wen were filled with forty pieces, and I carried the basket out of the shop.
"Where are you going?"
"Go out and take a look, remember to find Uncle Zhang for something."
Tian Qing'an is on the edge of the south fang, not far from the east fang, the east fang is the imperial city, the powerful, the top rich and the location of various yamen, walk through the two streets to see the signboard of the military department.
She straightened her clothes and headed for the door.
The two guards at the door immediately stopped, "What for?" ”
"I'm not going in." Tian Qingan said with a smile, "Is this Mid-Autumn Festival coming, the mooncakes made by home, the two adults will taste them, and if they think they are delicious, they will take care of the small business." ”
Without waiting for the two to refuse, Tian Qingan lifted the white cloth on the top, and the sweet fragrance of peaches instantly diffused in the air. ”
Almost involuntarily swallowed.
"Yes, everyone looks good at eating hands like this, isn't it?" Tian Qingan lowered his head and put the moon cake on a small plate of blue and white porcelain, cut a piece of peach with a knife, then took out a toothpick and placed it on the side of the plate, and held the plate in front of the two, "Two adults taste it." ”
The two glanced at each other, picked up a toothpick and inserted it into their mouths, and then their eyes lit up, and they didn't care about the mooncakes in their mouths, "It's delicious!" ”
A piece of moon cake was divided into four pieces, and before they could swallow it, the two couldn't wait to eat the second bite, and Tian Qingan cut the jujube paste again, and heard the person on the left ask: "I have a taste of peaches when I eat it." ”
"Mm-hmm, it's the taste of peaches, but it's better than peaches, and it's not that sour."
"That's right, this moon cake is peach-flavored, these are jujube paste, you can taste it again."
The two were not polite at all, and soon finished eating again.
Tian Qingan didn't cut it anymore, and the man on the left asked, "Why are these moon cakes sold?" ”
"Two hundred wen together."
"So expensive?"
"If the two of you are willing to do me a favor, how about I give each of you eight mooncakes?"
"What's the rush? The two of us are the gatekeepers, and we don't know what's going on inside, and even if we do, we can't talk nonsense. ”
Tian Qingan smiled, she still has self-knowledge, the secrets of the eight-yuan moon cake buying department? How whimsical she is!
What's more, "What do I want news from the Ministry of War?" I am neither a spy of the enemy country, nor do I want to fight for power and profit, I am just a small trader, I just want to ask you, your military department wants to give out holiday gifts during the Mid-Autumn Festival, right? Can you introduce me to the adults in charge of this, I want to sell more mooncakes. ”
The two breathed a sigh of relief, this is a big deal, but it is a good thing for them.
This mooncake is much better than the mooncake of previous years, if he buys this kind of mooncake this year, he can eat several pieces alone!
"No problem!" The two agreed, the older one on the right stayed at the door, and the one on the left entered the gate of the military department.
"My lord, I have a total of four flavors of moon cakes here, peach, jujube paste, bean paste, salted egg yolk, one package of two pieces, or two?"
"Wrap two pieces of one and taste both...... Salted egg yolk, I see that the skin is almost the same, is it also sweet? Does it taste good? ”
"It's definitely delicious!" Tian Qingan said, "There are not many salted egg yolks, and I will secretly leave two small pieces for the two of you when I taste them later." ”
"Thank you then!"
"What's polite, if it weren't for the two adults who were willing to give face, I might not have this opportunity."
Her words were beautiful, and the man guarding the door was even happier, and he didn't see Tian Qing'an at all to complain about how bad the gifts were in previous years, and he couldn't swallow it!
Hearing Tian Qingan's brows, he didn't let go, no, you are a person who watches the door, and the family is not very rich, and some of the food is good, why do you dislike it?
The young man saw her doubts, and suddenly came to his senses, and people didn't know his identity.
Tian Qingan thought about it, wouldn't it be the children of a big family who came down to practice?
It's really possible, looking at the door is actually quite a test of patience, and the eyeballs rolled, "What I brought is bulk moon cakes, and there are boxed ones in our shop, but they are all used for gifts, whether it is the packaging or the moon cakes inside, they are more delicate and the ingredients are more precious, if you need to, you can book, only for one hundred taels of one box, in addition, we also have some low-end gift boxes, starting from five taels, and the highest twenty taels today." ”
"Where is your shop, I'll take a look when I go back!"
Tian Qingan said the address, and the man who had gone in before ran out, with a smile on his face, and beckoned to her, "You come here...... Our squire said we wanted to take a look and try it. ”
That's great!
followed the man into the military department, she lowered her head, did not dare to look at random, through the rows of tables and people, they stood in front of a black door, the man did not knock on the door, directly pushed the door in, "Brother, here...... Cut a few pieces and let my brother taste them! ”
