Chapter 193: The Magician
The hexagram master predicted that the two of them were a natural pair. The hexagram master divined a hexagram. The wedding date is set for the tenth day of the next month, which is a good day to hold a wedding.
Choose an auspicious day to get married, the two will be able to be harmonious and beautiful, and the husband and wife will be in deep love.
Kapok lowered his head and folded his white hand in front of Chu Huaijin.
Not to mention how soft and cute that looks!
"Don't worry, there are only twelve days left" Kapok raised his eyes and happened to meet Chu Huaijin's affectionate gaze.
"That's it! If you wait more, this king will stay up for more than ten days," Chu Huaijin sighed.
"Sanye Restaurant has launched a health hot pot in the past two days, and the response is very good. I plan to add another seafood pot base, if the seafood can find a source, then the restaurant may also launch a seafood coffee, which can definitely become a hit for nobles in Beijing" Kapok continued to put his arms around Chu Huaijin's neck and said her thoughts.
There are one or two companies in the capital that sell seafood, but the types are limited to prawns, scallops, and snails. Not even crabs, abalone.
Whether it is the bottom of the seafood pot or the seafood celebrity, crab and abalone are indispensable.
These two can greatly improve the freshness of the bottom of the pot.
"So Mianmian wants to ask this king to find a seafood source for you? This is not a difficult thing for this king, so do you want to give this king some benefits? Chu Huaijin asked with a smile in his eyebrows.
Kapok immediately heard the meaning of the third master's words, she was not hypocritical, anyway, the two of them were engaged, and they were in her house, and there was no one else.
Kapok didn't hesitate to approach Chu Huaijin's face, and kissed him.
Chu Huaijin was very interested in her initiative, although it was a shallow kiss like a dragonfly, it was enough for him to enjoy it for a while.
"If you want to transport cotton and seafood, you have to transport it from Jiangzhou where there is a sea, and only where there is sea can you have seafood. It takes five days to get from Jiangzhou to the capital even if it is fast, which requires ice cubes to be kept fresh, which greatly increases the transportation cost."
The seafood is fresh, not to mention that some seafood will have some toxins if you eat it more or less after it dies.
It is necessary to ensure that the seafood caught in the sea is alive and well when it is transported back to the capital.
Kapok thought for a moment, hooked his lips and smiled, "Doesn't it just need a lot of ice?" It's not that hard. It occurred to me that I had read a book that had a way to make ice from saltpeter. ”
"Saltpeter ice?" Chu Huaijin was surprised.
For him, saltpeter could make gunpowder, but he never knew it could also make ice.
He thought he had read enough books, but he hadn't seen it. I don't know where the little girl read the book from!
"Third master, you don't believe me, I'm so sad" Kapok deliberately pretended to have a heartbroken expression.
"No, this king believes in you the most, and whatever you say is what you say. This king will send someone to get a large amount of saltpeter," Chu Huaijin grabbed her waist and fished the person into his arms.
The Ironclad Army was back in his hands, and he had recently been using saltpeter to study gunpowder, which happened to be available in the barracks. He picked up Kapok by the waist, put her whole person on the rocking chair, and whispered in her ear, "Good man, this king will order someone to send saltpeter over"
Kapok lay on the rocking chair and watched Chu Huaijin leave, took out milk and strawberries from the space and ate them, and the rocking chair shook gently from time to time. She thought beautifully, the matter of making ice from saltstone was solved.
Chu Huaijin can send a caravan to Jiangzhou to deliver seafood, and the restaurant's business will be able to reach a higher level at that time.
There was a knock on the door outside the house, "Is my little sister asleep?"
Second sister-in-law Mu has made great progress during this time, and she also knew that she had to knock on the door before entering her sister-in-law's house. During the time when they came to the capital, the couple opened a big restaurant, and the second sister-in-law Mu also became the master chef in the restaurant.
The restaurant receives nobles every day, and her vision has naturally improved a lot, and she is much more thoughtful than before.
"Second sister-in-law, come in," Kapok got out of the rocking chair.
"Little sister, I discussed with your second brother, you found the shop in the restaurant, we can't use it in vain to pay the rent on a monthly basis, and the business of the restaurant depends on your recipes. Especially the hot pot launched in the past two days is even more popular. Little sister, let's divide it in half, or the second sister-in-law is not down-to-earth," the second sister-in-law said sincerely.
Their two-room family has come to this point, and with the livelihood of this restaurant, even in the capital, it can be said that they are rich and noble, and they all rely on the help of their little sister.
The second sister-in-law of Mu has long figured out this, and she doesn't want her little sister to suffer, this restaurant shop is for them to use, and the share is only 30%, she is unhappy.
I couldn't sleep last night thinking about this, and I discussed it with Mu Er's mouth early this morning, and the two of them had the same idea. Why don't you come and talk to your sister-in-law about this?
Kapok is unexpected, the second sister-in-law will take the initiative to give her a share, they are all family members, and she doesn't want to worry so much about money. However, it is rare for the second sister-in-law to have this heart, and if she refuses, she will embarrass the second sister-in-law.
"The second sister-in-law's restaurant is divided into half according to what you said, I don't want the rent of the restaurant, this is also the third master's shop, I just borrow flowers to offer Buddha. We are all family, so we don't need to be so clear. ”
"Oops! I said that the location of the restaurant is so good, it turned out to be the shop of the third prince. Then your second brother and I will have to pay the rent even more. If you want me to say that the third master is a pain in your heart, he will hand over the title deed to you before he gets married. "Second sister-in-law Mu insisted on paying rent.
Kapok couldn't resist her, so she simply thought of a compromise method, and the third master got out of the shop and gave the third master a thirty percent of the restaurant's dividends. The rest is divided into half of them.
"Little sister, you still have a smart head, this method is good," the second sister-in-law replied happily.
The two of them can be regarded as agreeing. Second sister-in-law Mu felt that she didn't lose her sister-in-law, and she could sleep soundly tonight.
The back kitchen of the restaurant is inseparable from the master of the second sister-in-law, Mu, and she hurried back to the restaurant with a roar.
Kapok was tired of staying in the house and went outside to let it out. In the past two days, my father and mother have been busy in the newly planted vegetable garden.
She walked around the county king's mansion alone, and after a while, the people in the mansion came to tell her. "County Lord, the third prince is here again."
The corners of Kapok's mouth pulled out an arc when she heard the sound, and her heart and mind were all saltpeter.
The third master promised her that he had never delayed.
This Chu Huaijin is dressed in a dark blue brocade robe, with delicate green bamboo embroidered on the cuffs, lined with a tall posture, and walks towards her in the sun, like a superhero stepping on colorful auspicious clouds, and there is only her in her eyes from beginning to end.
It's a good feeling to be so loved by someone she loves.
"The saltpeter you asked for has been fetched from the barracks. You can show your skills, and it just so happens that this king can also open his eyes. Chu Huaijin looked at her with love in his eyes.
He was really interested in it.
"Take a shot of saltpeter to turn into ice, the third master has to keep his eyes open and look good! I'm going to do magic, it's amazing" Kapok stretched out his finger and shook it in front of the third master's eyes.
That's like a magician.
