Chapter 72
In the end, the contract was successfully signed. Dong Yi bought the recipes for Huahaoyueyuan, Longfeng Soup, and Fried Chicken Offal. Tomorrow, Da Niu Jiang will go to Juzhenlou to teach the chef how to cook. The materials will be provided by Juzhenlou. Buy white rice and get free once a month.

As for the signing fee, Dong Yi will send someone to deliver it tomorrow. The three dishes will cost 200 taels in total, snakes will be charged [-] taels per catty, and only live ones will be accepted, rice will be charged [-] taels per catty, and Jiang Xinyi is only willing to provide [-] taels a month. catty.

Dong Yi told Jiang Xinyi that this was not enough for his monthly supply of Juzhenlou, but Jiang Xinyi said he was stupid, why did all the guests serve the same white rice?Of course, only the high-spending customers who book a table and open a private room can order high-end rice?

Dong Yi suddenly realized that Jiang Xinyi was younger than him, but he was better at doing business than him.

As soon as the contract was signed, people came outside, and it turned out that the housekeeper of Dong's mansion came to pick up Dong Yi himself.

"Master, you went out without saying anything, Madam is very worried."

The housekeeper didn't say hello to Jiang's family, but came in directly to find Dong Yi. Bai Ji met him later, so he knew that Dong Yi's visit might not be approved by the Dong family.

Seeing this, Dong Yi also lowered his face, and said:
"Didn't I send someone back to the government to report?"

"The young master is still young, and it is reasonable for the madam to be worried, so she specially sent me to pick up the young master back home."

"Let's go! Pei Haiyin, can you go?"

Pei Haiyin still wanted to play, but Bai Ji grabbed him and threw him directly into Dong's carriage.

Pei Haiyin still wanted to protest, but Bai Ji silently said the word "Master", and Pei Haiyin immediately went back and sat down obediently.

After entering the town, Pei Haiyin got out of the car first, planning to sneak home before Pei Haiwu went out to catch him.

Dong Yi went straight back to the Dong Mansion, and went to see his father Dong Ruibin first.

Dong Ruibin has just returned to the mansion, and he is looking at the account that Dong Yi checked today in the study.

"Father, the child is back."

"Well, why is it so late today? Didn't you finish checking the accounts in half a day?" Dong Ruibin didn't raise his head.

"Father, today my son negotiated a business deal and signed a contract to order snake meat and white rice for Juzhenlou."

Only then did Dong Ruibin raise his head to look at his son.

"Whose idea?"

"Father, it was my son's own idea. I went to Juzhen Building to check the account for half a year. The business of Juzhen Building has not improved. The shopkeeper is meek and conservative, and the chef lacks the courage to break the cauldron.
So this time I also bought three recipes, one appetizer, one medicinal soup, one dessert,
The snake meat is prepared for the herbal soup. The white rice is new rice this year, but the taste is better than what is currently available in Juzhen Building. I think it can be used for the distinguished guests who book a table or a private room. "

Dong Yi was a little nervous, but still articulated his plan clearly.

"Bring it to me to see."

Dong Ruibin accepted the contract, looked at the three recipes in detail, and only asked:
"When are you going to try the dishes?"

"Tomorrow at noon, the eldest sister of the Jiang family will come to Juzhen Tower to demonstrate. Before that, I have already tasted these three dishes myself. Even the dragon and phoenix soup and the flowery moon were given to me by my grandmother."

"Well, I'll also go to Juzhen Tower for dinner tomorrow at noon, Zhang Qi, take the young master to see the wife."

Dong Yi knew that he had passed the test on his father's side, so he bowed and retreated in a good mood. Before he opened the door and left, Dong Ruibin reminded him again:
"A man doesn't need to pay attention to details when he does things. You only need to pay attention to your own safety when you go out, and you don't have to worry about things at home."

Dong Yi paused for a moment before straightening his back and continuing to walk forward.

His father's meaning made his blood boil.

His father agreed with what he did this time, and it was also a disguised hint that he didn't need to pay too much attention to his mother's little gesture.

Back in the backyard, Mrs. Dong was still talking to Dong Yi, but the implication was that Dong Yi was still young, so don't be fooled by people outside.

Thinking of his father's instructions, Dong Yi felt confident, so he didn't take his mother's words to heart. Instead, he comforted his mother a few words, and went back to his yard to rest.

After talking with her son, Mrs. Dong took off her make-up and hair, took a bath and freshened up, soaked in the large cypress tub, and let her personal maid massage her head and neck by massaging her shoulders.

"Where is the old man?"

"Go back to Madam, Master has gone to Aunt Fang's courtyard." Madam Dong's personal maid Liu Xiang replied softly.

Dong Ruibin married one wife and two concubines, but he often didn't set foot in Mrs. Dong's yard for a whole month.

Both concubines have children, Aunt Fang gave birth to a pair of dragon and phoenix twins, she is the most favored, Aunt Xie gave birth to two daughters, she has the least sense of existence in the mansion, but Dong Ruibin goes to Aunt Xie's courtyard more often than to the main courtyard .

Thanks to Dong Yi's success, the position of the eldest son is unshakable, Mrs. Dong also controls the inner courtyard, and the two aunts dare not show up in front of her.

"Liu Xiang, look, am I getting old?"

Madam Dong stretched out her hand from the water, she was still slender and fair, but she couldn't hide the sad arc at the corner of her eyes.

"Madam is still beautiful and beautiful, and her demeanor remains the same as before."

Mrs. Dong was originally the second daughter of the royal family of Jinling. She married into Dong's mansion when the grandfather of Dong's mansion was still an official.

But Dong Ruibin didn't like her, and he didn't like to be an official. Since Mrs. Dong became an official, Dong Ruibin stopped being a scholar and didn't want to continue to examine officials, and turned to the business world. Since then, no one in the Dong family has been an official.

Mrs. Dong wholeheartedly hoped that Dong Yi would not be like Dong Ruibin, who would not only think about doing business, but should get a good reputation.

"No matter how good your demeanor is, it's a waste of time, shut up in this big mansion, counting the number of times my husband goes to my aunt's yard every day, if it wasn't for Yi'er, I'm afraid he would be too lazy to even look at me.

Yi'er still doesn't understand my painstaking efforts to skip school just to go to Taohua Village to sign a contract to buy recipes. It's such a small matter that the shopkeeper can't do it. "

"Ma'am, the young master may also want to give the old man a good look. He didn't intend to play truant. I think this is the first time that the young master has not entered school since he entered school."

"Dong Ruibin just wants to lure my son into a crooked path! He doesn't live up to himself, and engages in these stinky businesses, but he doesn't care about my son's official career." Mrs. Dong gritted her silver teeth angrily.

"Ma'am, calm down. I heard that the young master was acting on a whim today. I don't think it will last long. Master Yi's literary talent is brilliant, and even the master praises it very much." Liu Xiang hurriedly strengthened her hands and pressed harder on the forehead acupuncture points for Madam Dong. His mouth was very gentle.

"No, I can't let Dong Ruibin ruin Yi'er and tell the kitchen that no more dishes from the Jiang family will be accepted.

Also, let Liufeng go to Taohua Village tomorrow to beat and beat, let the Jiang family know how to measure, our Dong Mansion is not something they can casually provoke. " Madam Dong didn't seem to hear Liu Xiang's reply, she was about to get up from the bathtub in a hurry.

Liu Xiang agreed, took out a towel and helped Mrs. Dong out of the bath, and repeatedly called the little girls to come in and pour water. She pretended to be nonchalant and ordered everyone to do things, but she was secretly uneasy.

Over the past few years, Mrs. Dong's mind has become more and more biased, and occasionally she will go astray when doing things, and she can't pull her back.

Let's hope it doesn't go wrong this time.
