Little lucky girl with supernatural powers in the farm, becomes rich in business and raises cubs

Chapter 30 Herbal Tea

The two sat at the stone table and chatted, Xiaoruo continued to eat mulberries, and Xiaoxun wiped her hands every once in a while.

Huifeng was smooth and warm, and after a while Xiaoruo yawned profusely.After a busy night, she was really sleepy at the moment, so she patted Xiaoxun on the shoulder to let him go to sleep for a while, and the dog's vigil was also very hard.

The two went back to their rooms to sleep, and they slept until the evening.

Xiaoruo opened her eyes again and the outside was already covered by the setting sun and the sky was full of sunset glow.She fell into a drowsy sleep, couldn't tell where she was for a while, and woke up with half-opened eyes for a while before she remembered, her body was lying limp and unwilling to move.

Xiaoxun called her to get up for dinner, and she lazily got up from the bed.

Dinner is deep-fried river prawns, spinach and mushroom soup, stir-fried eggplant and cold cucumber, and a bowl of milk tofu soup for each person.

Old man Cen drew up two recipes for herbal tea and showed them to Xiaoruo, and the two of them discussed the two pieces of paper without taking a bite of the food in front of them.

Xiaoxun peeled a plate of shrimp meat, set aside some for each of Xiao Niao and Xiao Zhao to eat, then pushed the plate containing shrimp meat to the two people who were discussing in full swing, and tapped their fingers on the wooden table , making a beeping sound.

Old man Cen and Xiaoruo immediately shut up, picked up their chopsticks and started eating.Xiaoxun's stern face is quite intimidating.

After the meal, the two cubs helped brother Axun clean up the dishes, while old man Cen and Xiaoruo continued to discuss the prescription.

The two prescriptions for the herbal tea drink are heat-clearing and fire-relieving tea and beauty-beautifying tea.

Heat-clearing and fire-relieving tea uses bamboo leaves, raw land, reed root, Tongcao, etc., which can relieve irritability and quench thirst. It has certain curative effects on body heat and hyperhidrosis, mouth sores, and sore throat caused by excessive heat, body fluid injury or qi and yin injury. .

The idea of ​​beauty and beauty tea was proposed by Xiaoruo. Women are born to love beauty. It can be seen from the very good sales of Angelica dahurica powder and pearl powder. As long as it can beautify the skin, women are quite willing to spend money.Old man Cen felt that what she said was reasonable, so he drew up a six-white tea recipe with bletilla striata, white peony root, white pomegranate, white monkshood, atractylodes macrocephala, and white silkworm.

As Xiao Ruo expected, these two herbal teas were very popular when they were launched in Tzu Chi Hall.

Especially Liubai tea, in order to improve the taste, licorice is added to the tea for seasoning. Passion for buying.

Thirty catties of ice cubes smashed into crushed smoothies are only enough to make a hundred cups of herbal tea, and they are usually sold out before noon.

One hundred cups is two thousand Wen, and after taking into account other costs such as medicinal materials and manpower, there is also a profit of about fifteen hundred Wen.Moreover, the saltpeter can be extracted, reset, and reused. It may take three to five days for others to dry and dry the saltpeter solution, but for Xiaoruo, it doesn't take an hour.

Xiaoruo and old man Cen discussed the limit of 150 cups per day.Among them, one hundred cups are still made of crushed smoothies, and each cup is [-] yuan.

In addition, [-] cups are released every afternoon, using small ice cubes, which are more refreshing and lasting, and the price is set at [-] Wen a cup.These fifty cups can be ordered in advance, and they will be sold on time. If you order more than five cups at a time, they can be delivered to your door within the town.

Ice is expensive, especially this year.

As the richest household in Shangxi Township and even Shili Baxiang, Zhang's family has a deep courtyard and a hundred acres of fertile land. The amount of money in their hands is uncountable. Converted into bank notes, it is thicker than the collection of books of the scholarly family.But no matter how rich you are, you will not be able to buy ice cubes this year.

Mrs. Zhang’s summer is so bitter that she can’t eat at the beginning of June every year, and she can only barely use it with ginseng soup and rice porridge chilled with ice cubes. After a summer, she can lose several laps.Last year, I heard that the northern trade routes were often harassed by barbarians, which might affect the transportation of ice cubes in the coming year. The Zhang family made preparations for this early and built a cellar tens of feet deep to store ice cubes. However, Shangxi Town is located in the south, and the weather Once warmed up, all the stored ice cubes melted into water, and there was no trace of ice cubes.

It's just early summer, and Mrs. Zhang has lost several catties, so she can only sip some plums every day, hoping to whet her appetite.

Mrs. Zhang's nanny fanned her to send some cool breeze.The nanny felt very distressed seeing her young lady losing weight, but Kuxia is not considered a disease, and there is no cure for it, so she can only worry.

She was so anxious to get angry that her heart was irritable, and the maid outside was not worried, she only heard a "yah", and then there was the sound of porcelain shattering.

When I opened the door, it turned out that there were two servant girls walking in a hurry, they didn't notice someone at the corner, they bumped into their arms, and the tea bowls in their hands fell to the ground and shattered cleanly.

"Why are you so careless! Madam's ginseng tea dared to drop, I think you owe a lesson to your little hooves!" The nanny furiously scolded, wrinkling her eyebrows.

The two servant girls who collided immediately knelt on the ground, their foreheads pressed against the ground, and their bodies trembled slightly.

"Nurse, let them come in and talk." Mrs. Zhang held her forehead and ordered. She was having a headache and couldn't hear too much noise.

The maids did not dare to stand up, and entered Mrs. Zhang's room on their knees.

Mrs. Zhang is a lady from a rich family. She was spoiled and pampered since she was a child. When she was not out of the court, her parents loved her. She was also doted on by an official brother. Allow mistakes to go unpunished.

The two maids who made mistakes were named Ruyi and Luzhu, both of whom were slaves born in the family.

Ruyi knelt and shivered in front of Mrs. Zhang, and it was the ginseng tea cup she was holding that fell to pieces.

"Madam, servant girl... I am not careful..." She was timid, but when she was scolded by Madam's nanny, she was so frightened that she couldn't speak clearly, and she didn't know what to do in her heart.

The tall and thin one is Lu Zhu, she is courageous and extroverted by nature, she is also the cousin and niece of the wife's nanny, she is usually regarded as the central figure among the maids in the Zhang family, and she is a sister to the other maids.Seeing that sister Ruyi was so frightened, she chimed in and said, "Madam, Ruyi has always been cautious. Just now, she was worried about Madam's eagerness, and wanted Madam to have some tea as soon as possible, so she came here in a hurry."

"Damn girl wants you to talk too much!" The nanny pretended to knock Luzhu's forehead with a fan, she was afraid that her cousin's words would upset the young lady, and they would be punished together.

Mrs. Zhang has a headache now and has no appetite at all. She doesn't care if the ginseng tea is delivered or not.

Lu Zhu let out a soft ouch, covered her forehead, looked at her cousin who gave her a wink to make her go back quickly, and then at Mrs. Zhang, who was pale and thin, and boldly kowtowed to her, saying: "Madam is getting more and more afraid of the heat." Losing weight, Luzhu's heart ached. Today, Luzhu heard that someone in the town is selling herbal tea, and I heard that there are crushed ice in the tea, which is very refreshing."

"Nonsense! How dare you talk to Madam about street vendors! Who knows what the tea, water, etc. are made of, and you can bear the burden if it ruins Madam's body?" The nanny raised her hand to tap the green beads with her fan .

"It's not a street vendor! Tzu Chi Hall is selling it!" Lu Zhu hurriedly covered her forehead, just now she pretended to hit her that it didn't hurt very much, but this time it was a real hit, and her skin would be red and swollen for a few days if the hit was not broken.

"Tzu Chi Hall?" Mrs. Zhang became a little interested when she heard these three words. "You mean Dr. Cen's charity hall in the town?"

"Exactly. Madam Kuxia hasn't been out for a while. You may not know that Tzu Chi Tang has launched two herbal teas, one for promoting body fluids and relieving heat, and one for beauty and beauty. Both have crushed smoothies. They taste cold and refreshing, especially That six-white tea for beauty treatment, I heard that it can remove yellow spots and spots, and drinking it for a long time can make the skin fair and supple!"

"Oh? Really?" Mrs. Zhang lifted her spirits up at this moment. She still remembered that it was the people from the Tzu Chi Church who cured her son's illness more than a month ago. She was deeply impressed by Dr. Cen's wonderful hands.

"Grandmother, hurry up and find out if there is really herbal tea with ice, as Luzhu said?"
