Chapter 483 Wholesale
Jiang Xinyan ate a plate of scrambled eggs by herself, and her stomach was almost full, and if she was still sitting at the table, she might eat a few pieces of scrambled chicken.
Since she left, she didn't care about the bite of food, she liked to see everyone's ladies go crazy with anger.
Therefore, she doesn't mind Zhao Qingqing's attitude, just an irrelevant person, and it is not the turn of the old lady to be angry.
Although the general's wife also disliked Jiang Xinyan as a criminal, she didn't dare to offend Jiang Xinyan.
Today's four dishes are already the best dishes in their General's Mansion, and the two aunts and the three young ladies saw Jiang Xinyan take the initiative to leave.
They secretly rejoiced, and then they all ate their meals in silence, they hadn't eaten such a sumptuous meal for a long time.
Once upon a time, they had ten dishes per meal! Ay! The impact of this locust plague is really too great, and it is said that there are only four dishes in a meal in the Hou Mansion in the capital.
The general's wife can only eat a full meal first, and she hasn't eaten a full meal for a long time, only Zhao Qingqing is so angry that she doesn't want to eat.
Chu Lixuan took the chopsticks and tasted a dish, the taste was very ordinary, and even a little unpalatable.
It wasn't hard to swallow, after all, it was a little better than the food he ate a year ago, and he swallowed it quietly.
Since Chu Lixuan married his little wife, his mouth has been raised, and he is not used to eating such a taste of food.
Thinking about her, he raised his eyes to look at Jiang Xinyan, he couldn't see clearly through the curtain, he heard her naughty teasing those ladies and ladies again, and he tried to suppress his smile.
Zhao Chengan saw that Chu Lixuan didn't eat much, and there was a faint smile on his face, so he knew that the food was not to his liking, and this was already their best meal.
He is a person who knows the times very well, so he took his sons to eat wolf, and he didn't care about Chu Lixuan.
The two generals also wanted to invite Chu Lixuan to eat vegetables, but Zhao Chengan glared at them, and hurriedly lowered his head to eat.
Several of them were preoccupied with the meal, and did not hear the movement of the ladies at the table.
After everyone finished eating, they sat in the living room and drank tea for a while, Zhao Chengan's son, the general's wife and a few young ladies, and the lieutenant generals were all there.
Zhao Qingqing disliked Chu Lixuan as a criminal, and on the other hand, he couldn't help but like to peek at him, he was so beautiful that he was so beautiful.
Zhao Chengan and the deputy generals have great respect for Chu Lixuan and his wife, and they all use your honorific titles when they speak, Jiang Xinyan said enough in the afternoon.
She sat quietly beside Chu Lixuan, it was impossible for the couple not to speak! Then Chu Lixuan can only play in person.
Zhao Chengan and the lieutenant generals especially wanted Chu Lixuan's food, so they talked about how hard they worked, and when Xichu saw the invasion of the Southern Barbarians, he also wanted to take the opportunity to rob and get a piece of the soup.
"Master Chu, you may not know that Western Chu produced a fierce general this time, injured several of our generals, and finally fought a draw with our general." The military advisor said.
"Our general and General Xi Chu were both injured internally, and they verbally agreed to rest for three days before the decisive battle, and they will come to call the battle again tomorrow, and it is said that Chu Ye is brave and invincible."
Chu Lixuan said: "Since Brother Zhao's internal injuries have not healed, I will meet him on behalf of Brother Zhao tomorrow to see how fierce the fierce general is." ”
He has been with Jiang Xinyan for a long time, and his speech is naturally much more humorous, and he is no longer as presumptuous as before.
"Really? You fight on behalf of our generals? It's great that we can finally raise our eyebrows. ”
"Brother Chu can help in the next step, then he will definitely be able to repel Western Chu in one fell swoop." It's better to sell food to our Zhenxi Army.
Zhao Chengan was embarrassed to say the latter sentence, but just because Chu Lixuan could help him, it was something he couldn't ask for.
Zhao Qingqing saw that her father was respectful to Qi Xian, and the deputy generals were even more submissive to him, and her heart was active again.
The military advisor saw that it was not early, "Master Chu is tired all the way, please rest early, and finally ask Mrs. Chu about the food." ”
"Well, our people are already on the way, as long as you have the money ready, come over at any time."
The military advisor asked eagerly, "What kind of food did Mrs. Chu prepare this time?" What are the prices? ”
"50,000 stone of polished rice, calculated according to 2261 stone, 100,000 stone of cornmeal, calculated according to 221 stone, can you accept it?"
Zhao Chengan and the lieutenant generals looked at Chu Lixuan in disbelief, oh my God! 50,000 stone polished rice is equivalent to 6.3 million catties, and they actually have so much grain in their hands.
"The price Mrs. Chu said is fair, we can accept this amount, our silver may only be enough to pay 100,000 stone cornmeal, you see... Yes..."
Before the military advisor could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Zhao Chengan, "We all want it, we all want it, pay part of the silver first, and wait for me to write to the Hou Mansion for the arrears, is this okay?" ”
Jiang Xinyan thought, 100,000 stone cornmeal, and 200,000 taels of silver, haha made a fortune, and finally earned a big vote.
This is still the couple's private money, but the grain is grown by the couple in the space, and the cornmeal in the castle will be sold to the capital at that time.
"Yes, if General Zhao writes a letter to the capital, by the way, help us ask if anyone else buys food? At that time, we will send you 10,000 koku of early rice as an introduction fee. ”
It's not that the couple can't go to the capital to sell grain, just put on makeup, but an acquaintance introduced that it is easier to do wholesale.
"Our family also needs to buy grain, may I ask Mrs. Chu, will your grain be sent to the capital?" An adjutant asked cautiously.
Chu Ye is a wanderer, so he shouldn't dare to go to the capital! Ay! Why can't I control my mouth like this!
"Send! It must be delivered, and tell them to pay the money with one hand and deliver the goods with the other, and the silver and goods will be delivered. Jiang Xinyan said boldly.
Everyone talked happily and was still unsatisfied, but Chu Lixuan said that his daughter-in-law was tired and wanted to rest.
After breakfast the next day, Zhao Chengan took Chu Lixuan and his wife to ride around the barracks on horseback, and there was still a big difference between the Zhenxi military camp and the Zhenbei military camp.
Because there has been no destruction here for decades, the most distinctive feature of the Zhenxi military camp is that there is also a military brothel.
Zhao Chengan said that all the soldiers dragged their families to the barracks, which was impossible, so there were military prostitutes.
It is not what Jiang Xinyan thinks of robbing people's girls and forcing them to become military prostitutes, but a voluntary choice of profession.
Many widowed women, who did not have any skills themselves, could not continue to survive, and the imperial court recruited military prostitutes before.
It is a good way out for widowed women, which is equivalent to the court paying money to buy these women.
This incident itself is an insult to women, and no matter how many military prostitutes are recruited, there will be no more soldiers in the barracks.
So gradually, even if it was a voluntary thing, no one was willing to do it, so the military prostitute gradually became a compulsory behavior.
For example, if the official in the court makes a major mistake and the official is beheaded, wow! His daughter-in-law is about to be unlucky.
There are also exiled prisoners, but Zhao Chengan doesn't dare to say this, after all, the two people around him are exiles......
