Chapter 84

Just sent off Mr. Tang who came from the palace, people from the bookstore came to ask for the goods again, several families rushed together, it is not good to favor one over another, one family divided up one hundred volumes, and each pre-ordered five hundred volumes.

He Cuihua settled the dividends for the 2 copies sold, because the seller printed them himself, so the bookstore gets 8% of the storybook priced at [-] taels of silver, and the seller gets [-]%.The bookstore wanted to print it by itself, but Mrs. Yuan, who had benefited from the sweetness, was still not happy.

This is a proper distribution of 400 taels of silver, the capital is almost recovered, and there are still 500 volumes left.

Let Steward Li go to the bookstore (printing workshop) to place an order again, and print 1000 color copies and 3000 black and white copies. The cost is 200 cash per copy, and the price can be sold for 400 cash. class family line.

The Hu family and the children in the village school also received this comic book as a gift. After reading it, Xiaoshan kept showing off in Dali Village, and then told the stories written by his cousins ​​to the younger dolls, and won a big prize. fans of the gang.

The noodle shop has been on vacation as early as the twelfth lunar month, and the wages and year-end bonuses have all been paid out. We will discuss the opening day next year, and the wheat in the village has been used up.

The youngest daughters-in-law all took red envelopes of two taels of silver, and each of them gave out ten catties of loose dried noodles, ten catties of pork, and five catties of soybean oil, which were enough for the New Year.

The mothers-in-law in the village compete and show off at the entrance of the village, how much money your daughter-in-law earns, how capable my family is, the whole family can make new clothes, and celebrate the New Year happily.

In the twelfth lunar month, the Yuan Mansion made thousands of jin of preserved meat for the Chinese New Year. They ate it at home and gave it to relatives and friends. When Eunuch Xiaotang left, he pulled a cart back to the palace, especially the sausage, which looked delicious. .

This year, I sent a whole car to Mr. Fan's hometown, from cured meat to dried noodles, dried seafood to sweets and snacks that children like. In the past, there were natural disasters, man-made disasters, and wars on the road, so I couldn't be polite.

But now, the transportation is convenient, and the family is rich in supplies, no matter what, it is necessary to give the husband all the etiquette.

The candy made by Cuihua herself was a lot of trouble for the children in the family to eat happily, and the two older children were satisfied.

Sesame candy, rice flower candy, fried cat ears, Shaqima, especially sweet and sour candied haws have been made a lot.

The yield of red fruits in Zhuangzi is very high, pick out the best color and shape, a candied haws wrapped in a glutinous rice paper, this edible glutinous rice paper has tossed the green flowers many times.

In addition to candy, I also made a lot of jerky, pork jerky and beef jerky, not only children like to eat, but also adults can't stop eating.

The school has been on vacation for a long time, and several children of the Hu family have grown up in their aunt's house. They have snacks every day, and they keep asking how to write the next story. The life is really beautiful.

The children in the village can smell the candy smell even more, and they come to play with their friends in groups. Cuihua also shares the candies she made with them. It's time to ask for candy.

They are very sensible and made up a lot of auspicious words, and the little mouths are all sweeter than honey.

Mr. Yuan Qian rushed back to the capital on the morning of the [-]th day of the twelfth lunar month. Before he could go home, he delivered the memorial to the palace and waited for the letter.

The emperor sealed the pen on the 26th of the twelfth lunar month. He thought that he would not be interviewed until the end of the New Year and the start of work. Who would have thought that less than an hour after the paper was handed in, he was announced into the palace.

After Hei Wa saluted Xia Hongdi respectfully, he was dragged into the imperial study.

"Aiqing has finally returned to Beijing, tell me about what you have done this year." The emperor looked in a good mood, cheerful.

Unexpectedly, this Xia Hongdi is still a workaholic. On New Year's Eve, he has to drag his subordinates to listen to the work report, which is too complicated.

However, Mr. Yuan Qian had already rehearsed many times in his heart regarding the work report, and he had written and revised the work report more than ten times.

"Your Majesty, in the past year, I have built five cement workshops in the north of the Great Yellow River, produced a total of XX million stones of cement, built X official roads, a total of XX miles, XX piers, and XX river embankments, and placed cement workers. There are XX employees in the workshop, and the total amount of receivables for one year of cement sales by merchants in five places is 1300 million taels of silver. I will give you the details."

The problem of modern people is that they like to use data to speak, first give a summary, and then explain the development process and results of each place in detail, and attach the problems encountered and the solutions.

People with low cultural literacy don't know how to use words to modify, describe in various ways, and finish a year's work summary in half an hour in a concise and concise manner.

The emperor listened with great interest, he could completely keep up with this method, how concise and clear it was, it was a clear stream.

Yuan Qian could quickly explain what he was interested in, the data was firmly remembered, and it was consistent with his written report, and the emperor nodded again and again. These were no different from the information he received. Sincerely.

It took two full hours before the monarch and his ministers finished their work report, drank tea, ate the lunch rewarded by the emperor, and chatted about household chores.

"Your wife is also good at making money. This year, the empress's oyster sauce shop has earned more than 100 million taels of silver, and she has also opened a lot of noodle shops. She is very lucky!"

"Thank you for the compliment, Your Majesty, hehe, I also think that my daughter-in-law is amazing, hehe"

"Look at your worthless appearance. Go back and have a good rest. I won't treat capable people badly if you listen to rewards in the next year!"

"Thank you, Lord Long En, and wish Your Majesty all wishes come true in the New Year!" "Haha, everything will come true, everything will come true!"

Before the New Year's Eve dinner, he returned to Dali Village on the outskirts of Beijing and knocked on the gate of Yuan Mansion.

"Mother, mother, my dad is back!" "Grandpa, dad, my dad is back!"

Following the loud voices at both ends, a group of people rushed out to welcome his return,

Father Hu and the others not far away were all alarmed and came to Yuan's mansion to see the son-in-law who had returned home.

The two could no longer hold back, one was sitting on their father's back, the other was grinning beside them,

Mr. Yuan Qian laughed loudly: "Father, mother, father-in-law, mother-in-law, daughter-in-law, I'm back!
Mr. Yuan Qian not only came back, but also pulled several carts and brought gifts for everyone.

A good horse was given to the two fathers. In Heiwa's eyes, men of all ages are interested in chariots and horses.

The mother-in-law and stepmother each gave a few good leathers, and let the old ladies arrange what to wear.

The three uncles, brother-in-law and my two younger brothers each gave me a good knife, a short knife, the kind with multiple functions.

The little boys got the Four Treasures of the Study. Mr. Yuan Qian put a lot of thought into giving them exclusive items customized for his zodiac signs.

The two little nieces got jewelry and bought gold wares directly. He didn't understand those jades or anything. Gold is good and can be used as money.

The other female family members also shared a lot of silk and satin cloth, and Yuan Damei was quite rare, and smiled happily when she touched the smooth fabric.

Anyway, everyone has a share and everyone is happy, especially Hu and Yuan. Hey, this is their exclusive Malaysia. It is well-groomed and looks very valuable.

Father Hu intends to feed the horse himself, so he is not willing to put a carriage on the horse, he wants to offer it up like a baby.

For the New Year's Eve dinner on the night of New Year's Eve, all members of the Yuan family gathered at Cuihua's house. Old Yuantou and Mrs. Ma were still in the big house, and the rule from this year was to celebrate the New Year in the big house.

The two kitchen women have been trained by Cuihua for almost a year. Those who already have cooking skills are even better now. This year's New Year's Eve, compared with the old Yuan's family in the past, the level of the New Year's Eve dinner is directly Upgraded to the top.

Stewed chicken with scallops and shield fish, braised big carp, braised prawns in oil, braised trotters in sauce, hand-caught lamb, Sixi meatballs, braised beef, cold diced rabbit, stir-fried pea tips, stir-fried soybean sprouts, a total of ten dishes, Perfect in every way.

The staple food is rice and soup dumplings. The soup dumplings are as big as an adult’s fist. The skin is as thin as paper.

There are quite a lot of good wine in Cuihua Space, and I found a reason to give a lot to Mr. Fan, Lao Yuantou and Hu's father. On weekdays, they drink so stingy, but today they can't be like this, they need to drink freely.

Not to mention the children, few of the adults have eaten these dishes. Yuan Laosan's daughter-in-law looked at the dishes on the table and couldn't walk, and swallowed desperately.

Mr. Fan and Lao Yuantou are respected at the top of the Eight Immortals Table. Yuan Laoer and Yuan Laosan are at the bottom. People pour wine and add food.

Hei Wa made a speech, thanking Mr. Fan for teaching the child over the past year, thanking the parents for taking care of the whole family, and thanking the daughter-in-law for their hard work. The atmosphere at the man's table is very lively. That one is fun.

The table of Ma Shi, Cuihua, Yuan Damei and the Fan family sisters is much more peaceful. There are no children making trouble, and the daughters-in-law can also indulge in eating dishes. They must taste the delicious food of this big table.

The little girl helped to take care of the four children crawling around in the side room, the women were cooking and serving the dishes in the kitchen, and Mrs. Li and his wife would not be at the master's table, and Cuihua left them the same meals.

For a while, the delicious taste came into the mouth, except for the persuading people, the others could only care about chewing, the portions of the dishes on the two tables were full, there was more than enough every year, there was still some left over.

Mr. Fan was already obsessed with soup dumplings. He made three in a row until his tongue was numb from the heat, so he stopped to eat.

What kind of treasure is this Mrs. Yuan, who actually serves new dishes every festival!

Cuihua: There are recipes in a large bookcase, and there are countless videos to learn more about!
Old Yuantou and Mrs. Ma are better off. In the days of the big house of Yuan’s family, when Cuihua and the others arrived in Dali Village, they ran and upgraded, but other brothers and sisters’ families did not eat this way on weekdays. Not without this craft.

After eating at the women's table for a quarter of an hour, Yuan's third daughter-in-law couldn't help it: "Sister-in-law, your cooking skills are really good, and this trotter is too delicious!"

Yuan Laosan's ears were sharp, and when he heard his wife's words, he smiled and said, "Eating can't stop you, hehe, but, sister-in-law, you really need food at home, you don't know, since we moved back to our own house, the last What I miss is your family's food, and the five-headed and six-headed Full Moon Wine guys can't forget it last time."

"A lot of old people in the village cried because they said that after eating the flowing water mat, they thought it was worth it even if they closed their eyes immediately!"

"Hey, our Sichuan cuisine is famous now, and now we have to learn from us when we hold wedding events, and the mother-in-law next door will be busy cooking at the end of the year!"

"Well, Sichuan cuisine is not difficult to cook. You can ask your daughter-in-law to learn what kind of dishes you like to eat. There is no tuition fee!"

"Sister-in-law, I can't learn it. It's easy to watch others do it, but it's not the same thing to do it by yourself." Yuan's third daughter-in-law is also delicious, but she really learned it several times, but she can't learn it.

Well, the daughter raised by a scholar, the female celebrity is better at shooting, so I didn't work hard on the stove.

The Yuan family is not in the habit of not talking about meals. While eating, they comment on the most delicious dish this year, and the crab roe soup dumpling actually got the highest score.
