Mingmen Family

Chapter 32 Curious
Ye Yaming smiled embarrassedly and asked, "Then the funds we need..."

"Hmph, that old boy, at first he only said to prepare a big gift for you, and didn't mention lending us money at all. It was only after I analyzed the pros and cons with him that he agreed to lend us an interest-free loan."

Ye Chongming said so, but with a smile on his face, it was obvious that he and Mei Chonglin talked very well.

"Tomorrow morning, I will send people to the tea house to bring back all the loose tea, and then buy sweet-scented osmanthus. You make tea from the raw materials first. For the rest, I will find a way to ask people to buy tea and collect sweet-scented osmanthus. You can make as many raw materials as you have."

As he spoke, he said with great regret: "It's a pity that the loose tea from the capital is too late to bring back, otherwise we still have a few hundred catties of loose tea to use."

Ye family's tea leaves are very particular about the quality.Even if the raw materials of these loose teas are not so good, summer tea and autumn tea are mostly used to make them, but they are still better than the loose teas outside.Furthermore, they are all cost prices, and the prices are much cheaper.

The quality of loose tea from other tea merchants varies, and how to price it after it is made into sweet-scented osmanthus tea is also a difficult task.

But now I have to rush to make tea when the sweet-scented osmanthus is in full bloom, and it is too late to go to the capital to bring back the loose tea.

Ye Yaming also understood what he meant, and said: "I will make high-quality osmanthus tea from our best quality loose tea, and you can take it to Master Zhizhi or Master Wu and others. This batch of tea is only for gift and not for sale. For other teas, let me divide them into upper, middle and lower grades according to their quality.

Ye Chongming also meant the same thing, nodded in praise and said, "You're still thoughtful. Okay, let's do it like this."

Ye Yaming knew that Ye Chongming was an old Jianghu, and she didn't need to tell her some things, but she still couldn't help saying: "Buy loose tea and collect sweet-scented osmanthus, don't turn a few corners and ask others to buy it in the name of our family." .”

Ye Chongming sighed again in his heart that the third granddaughter was so worried.

He nodded: "don't worry, I won't attract others' attention."

"Grandpa has been in business all his life, so he naturally wants to get these, I'm just exhorting you for nothing." Ye Yaming laughed.

Ye Chongming sighed: "Grandfather is old, and the wind has been going smoothly these years. He is really not as thoughtful as you. Ming'er, just tell me what you want, don't worry that grandpa won't listen, let alone that grandpa will be unhappy Without you, our family would have suffered a lot this time. It's hard to say what the consequences will be."

Thinking that if Meng Chengwei hadn't been spotted, and let him make friends with Ye Jiaxing, and then lend a helping hand when the Ye family encountered difficulties, the young and old of the Ye family would definitely regard him as a good person.Not only would the Ye family have in-depth contacts with him, but they might also think about how to repay them. In the end, they were led into the abyss by him, and Ye Chongming shuddered.

"Grandfather, don't blame me. Sometimes I am in a hurry, and I say what I have. In fact, I regret it after I finish speaking. Why do I need to say those words? Grandfather, you will definitely understand." Ye Yaming said .

She is used to giving orders in modern times, and she doesn't need to think about how euphemistically she speaks, after all, she is dealing with subordinates.As soon as she arrived in ancient times and became someone else's granddaughter, and in this era of extreme respect and etiquette, her words seemed a bit presumptuous.

Ye Chongming waved his hand: "I really don't think what you said is bad, you don't have to think about it."

One problem after another, he was burning with anxiety.Ye Yaming's good suggestions are like rain, how can he care about them?It was Ye Yaming who spoke half-hidden and half-revealed that made him anxious.

Seeing that Ye Chongming really didn't care, Ye Yaming really had something to say: "We have to move faster to buy tea and collect osmanthus flowers. Fresh osmanthus flowers are needed to make osmanthus tea, and there is no way to make it after the flowering season."

Ye Chongming nodded: "Okay."

He asked again: "How many people do you need? Do you need to go to the tea house?"

"No, just do it in my yard. There are six maids in my yard, plus six maids in my mother's yard. Twelve people should be enough."

There are eight maidservants in Yin's courtyard.Leaving two personal servant girls at her disposal, Ye Yaming can take out six.Presumably Yin Shi is very supportive of her daughter's making osmanthus tea.

"If it's really not enough, there are maids in Yin'er's courtyard. At that time, I will let my mother and Yin'er supervise them and do the picking of sweet-scented osmanthus and roasted tea. The key process of scenting flowers, I took Madam Cai Do it with Bairui and the four servant girls."

Seeing that Ye Yaming arranged things in an orderly manner, and also knew that the key processes were to use people from his own yard, so it would not be leaked out by too many people.Ye Chongming felt more and more that this child was a rare talent with careful thinking and thoughtful handling at a young age, and he felt even more regretful in his heart.

The next day, Mrs. Ye asked all the maids to pick sweet-scented osmanthus flowers, cleaned them up and sent them to Ye Yaming's yard.Ye Chongming also sent someone to bring loose tea from the tea house, and also sent some tea-making tools.

At the same time, he turned the corner again and asked trusted acquaintances to help harvest the sweet-scented osmanthus, and asked the servant of Yansheng to dress up in disguise and buy loose tea from other tea merchants.

Ye Yaming took the maid and mother-in-law to make tea in the courtyard.

Mrs. Ye sent Nanny Yu to guard the gate, and at the same time did some logistical work, sending some snacks and tea to Ye Yaming and others from time to time.

"Have you figured it out? What is Miss Ming and her maid doing in the yard? Don't tell me that I'm really making sweet-scented osmanthus honey." Tao asked her maid, Ling'er.

It’s fine to do it for a day yesterday, but I still do it today, and I went outside to collect sweet-scented osmanthus flowers, and I closed the door to do it in the yard.It takes so many sweet-scented osmanthus to make sweet-scented osmanthus honey, is it still sneaky?Besides, there is tea.

When this thing was shipped back, it could be hidden from others, but it couldn't be hidden from Tao, who was half of the family.But Dow didn't know what was transported to Ye Yaming's yard.It was so tightly covered that it really made her curious.

"I didn't find out. Nanny Yu is guarding near the gate of the third girl's courtyard. As long as she doesn't belong to the second bedroom, she will ask you if you pass by." Ling'er said.

Dow frowned.

If she had suspected that the second room was up to something, she had given up on it now.

Nanny Yu is the old lady's confidant, she only listens to the old lady's words, and her status is not comparable to that of other servants.Not to mention Yin Shi and Ye Yaming, if the old lady didn't speak up, even she wouldn't be able to order Yu Nanny.

Now that Ye Yaming asked Nanny Yu to guard the door for her, what she did was not just about the second wife, but about the entire Ye family.

Thinking about the sweet-scented osmanthus flowers that the old lady asked the servants of each courtyard to help Ye Yaming, and the constant delivery of things to Ye Yaming's yard, Tao Shi had a vague guess in his heart.

It is estimated that the second master made some new tea, and it was not too difficult to worry about being leaked by the people in the tea house, so he simply put it in the second room and asked Ye Yaming to bring the maid to make it.
