River Tuluo Xian

Chapter 229 Qingshuang's Request

Most likely, Jiangling's warning was effective.

At noon that day, someone hung up the signboard of Xiangfu, drove up, and brought a thousand taels of silver and a hundred silks.

Its intention is nothing more than to let Jiang Ling put down that revenge.

After the Taoist went back, he should have stated his interests with Cai Yongning.

If it is a mortal, he can use power to suppress him, and under the supreme power, mortals are powerless to fight against him.

But on Jiangling's side, there is an expert behind them. If they can cultivate together, there is no need to turn against each other.

Because Jiang Ling has already said it himself, if he provokes him again, he will risk his life to get involved in the karma.

Like Cai Yongning, he naturally quickly weighed the pros and cons, so he asked the housekeeper to bring silver taels of cloth.

Troubles that can be solved with money are not considered troubles.

The butler of the Prime Minister's Mansion has good eloquence and a low profile. He came here respectfully.

Even when he saw the lotus fragrance, he bowed and bowed.

Jiang Ling was in the room and didn't show up. After He Xiang came in to pass on the message, he let He Xiang do what he wanted.

With these words, He Xiang naturally accepted it happily.

She didn't know the grievances between Jiangling and the Xiangfu, only when Jiangling saved the general, was he thanked by the Xiangfu.

This thousand taels of silver and a hundred bolts of silk are delivered to your door, so why don't you want them?
Then accept them all.

Seeing that the gift was accepted, the butler of Xiangfu thought it was a holiday, so he let it go. Before leaving, he bowed respectfully to He Xiang again, took nine steps back, and then turned around and got on the carriage.

"Sir, these cloths are so beautiful. He Xiang has seen them in the old lady's room before, and they were rewarded by the palace. It is said that only the royal relatives can wear this kind of cloth."

He Xiang brought the cloths in, some of them were very popular with her, she hugged them and ran to the room to share the joy with Jiang Ling.

"If you like, you can find a tailor and make a few sets of clothes. It's just after spring, and it's time to prepare summer clothes."

He Xiang: "These kinds of cloth are more suitable for sir."

Jiang Ling: "Then you can also make a few sets for me."

He Xiang: "This Xiangfu is really generous. For the sake of the general, they will send so many gifts."

Jiang Ling laughed: "He's not doing it for the General, the Prime Minister's Mansion and the General's Mansion are enemies, and fire and water cannot be tolerated."

"Ah? Then... why did they send such an expensive gift?"

"It's because I have a grievance with me, and I just want me to let go."

"Ah? So... then... I shouldn't accept it just now, sir?"

Jiang Ling chuckled lightly and said: "It doesn't matter, since it's delivered, it's worthless if you don't want it, one yard counts for one yard. What should be settled, still has to be settled."

Seeing that he really didn't mean to blame him, He Xiang was relieved.

After measuring the size with Jiang Ling, she happily hugged some fabrics and went to find a tailor.

"By the way, sir, the silver is still at the gate of the courtyard, I... can't take it."

A box full of thousands of taels of silver weighs about sixty or seventy catties.

But Jiang Ling said: "You don't need to take it if you can't take it. It doesn't matter if you put it at the gate of the courtyard."

He Xiang pouted and left the room, thinking, how can it be placed at the gate of the courtyard, if it is not taken in, it may disappear the next day.

She trotted out, brought in the money in batches, went back and forth several times, and then moved all the money back under the bed in the room.

Thinking of sleeping on the thousand taels of silver every night, she couldn't help laughing.Bounced out the door.

It rained for the next seven days.

The west moat is still a little swollen, and the road outside the yard is drenched in mud.

It was inconvenient to go out on this rainy day, so Jiang Ling had no choice but to build a canopy outside the courtyard gate, move chairs, and fish every day.

He caught a lot of fish, so he simply asked He Xiang to use some firewood to dry them and make cured fish pieces.

At noon, Qingshuang came over, carrying a basket with three vegetables.

In the past few days, every day for lunch and dinner, she would prepare dishes and send them over for Jiang Ling to comment on.

The three dishes in the basket are still stir-fried three shredded pork, braised pork, and homemade tofu.

After eating for several days in a row, Jiang Ling couldn't help but smile wryly: "Miss Qingshuang, why don't we change some dishes?"

Qingshuang's expression was slightly embarrassed: "Master, are you tired of eating?"

In fact, she also imagined that even if it was delicacies from mountains and seas, she would get tired of eating them every day, not to mention these three dishes were taught by Jiang Ling.

"I'm okay, but it would be best if I could change it."

He didn't have to do it himself, he had food every day, and he lived a good life. To be honest, Jiang Ling was quite satisfied.

Qingshuang lowered her head slightly: "But Qingshuang only learned these three dishes from young master."

After pondering for a while, she suddenly had the courage to ask: "My lord, I... I have a request, I wonder if you can agree to it?"

Jiang Ling: "Let's hear it?"

Qingshuang stared at her feet with her beautiful eyes, and said nervously: "After I cooked for Miaoyu that day, she suggested that I might use this method to make money for a living. I... can I?"

The dishes are taught by Jiangling,

Without Jiang Ling's consent, she couldn't do the kind of thing that was directly sold for money.

Jiang Ling: "Why do you want to make money from this?"

In this era, cooks are mostly men, and this job is also a tiring job.

Might as well play the piano.

Qingshuang said seriously: "Qingshuang has left Yanyu Pavilion now, after all, she has to support herself. Apart from Qin Yi, Qingshuang has nothing else to do. But Qin Yi..."

Probably because Qin Yi left that circle, it would be difficult to use it to make money.

Qingshuang couldn't say anything, she paused, and then continued: "Miaoyu said, if I sell this dish to Qingxiang Pavilion, they will buy it at the price of the most high-end restaurant. I also thought about it, and the price is really high. It’s not too low. Now I’m here to ask the young master, if the young master agrees, I... I may do it like this.”

Jiang Ling shook his head.

When Qingshuang saw it, she couldn't help biting her lips, "If you don't agree, then... just forget it."

Jiang Ling: "It's not forbidden, I mean, it's too low to buy at the price of the most high-end restaurants."

"Ah?" Qingshuang blinked, with a dazed expression on her face.

Jiang Ling asked her, "What is the approximate price of these three dishes in the most upscale restaurants?"

Qingshuang thought about it for a while: "If you compare Fan Yuelou's food and wine, they don't have such dishes. It's about [Stir-Fried Three Silks] 130 Wen, [Braised Pork] [-] Wen, and [Homemade Tofu] [-] Wen. "

Jiang Ling: "That is to say, you Xingxing worked so hard to cook three dishes for only 410 Wen?"

Close to half slam.

In the eyes of ordinary people, this is indeed a high price.

It should be no problem to earn ten taels of silver by working hard several times a day.

This is equivalent to the annual income of ordinary households.

Qingshuang inquired and asked: "410 Wen Cai is three dishes, does the young master still think it is too low?"

Jiang Ling: "Of course it's low, and if you really keep frying all day long, you'll die of exhaustion sooner or later with your body."

Qingshuang looked at the hem of her skirt, and said softly, "But Qingshuang still wants to support herself with her own strength."

At this time, Jiang Ling watched the floats on the river move, and pulled the pole, and another silver carp and bighead carp weighing seven or eight catties was loaded.

He mentioned the fish, thought for a while, and said, "Stop cooking, that's too tiring, I'll teach you another dish. Just make one dish."

Qingshuang's heart skipped a beat, "What?"

Jiang Ling pointed at silver carp and bighead carp: "Have you heard of cured fish nuggets?"
