Princess of the auxiliary country

The two of them were covered in sweat after eating, but they felt really good.

At this time, in the small room next door, Xiaochan, Hongxiu, Wangxia, Grandma Xi and Grandma Zhao also felt the charm of hot pot.

"No wonder the eldest princess accepted it instantly. This hot pot is so delicious."

Xiaochan's eyes shone brightly, and several others nodded.

Dishes, meats, and vegetables came out one after another, and everyone was sweating and their mouths were full of oil.

"Mom, are you full? How about we go out for a walk in the greenhouse and then warm up the soup?"

"it is good."

The eldest princess was very satisfied with this meal, and she was even a little stuffed. She really should go out to eat for a while.

As soon as the two of them moved, Aunt Zhao in the small room next door heard it and quickly asked them to stop and go to serve the master first.

Don't neglect your master just because of a bite to eat.

Several people quickly put down their bowls and chopsticks, wiped their mouths, and walked out.

"Haha, how about this hot pot?"

Seeing that their faces were all flushed, Huo Junyao couldn't help but squeal.

"It's delicious. Miss, you are really amazing. You can even think of eating like this."

Xiaochan praised her sincerely, and the others nodded frequently.

"Follow Miss from now on. There will be plenty of delicious food for you to eat."

Huo Junyao is very confident about this. As long as she has the ingredients, she can make a lot of delicious food.

"it is good."

Several people laughed together.

Seeing them like this, the eldest princess also laughed.

Then the group of people walked around various greenhouses, and Huo Junyao asked them all to get their clothes and take a warm bath together.

Xiaochan still couldn't forget the hot pot meal last night the next day.

"Now we only have those base ingredients, but we have to save them first."

"My father and second brother haven't eaten yet."

"But don't worry, our peppers are growing well. If nothing else happens, the harvest will not be small. When we have peppers, we will boil more base ingredients and let everyone else in the villa have a taste."

Xiaochan nodded repeatedly and swore in her heart that she must take good care of the chili greenhouse and not let anything happen to the greenhouse.

Otherwise, there will be no need to eat the hot pot.

Moreover, she felt that she would have to go out to meet Hongxiu Wangxia in a while, and she would like to say something to Grandma Xi and the others.

"Miss, there are a lot of edible vegetables in our greenhouse now. Should we keep them or pick some first?"

Some vegetables grow very quickly, and it’s easy to miss the time when they taste their best.

There are a lot of them in the greenhouse, and as of now, they can't use them all.

The servants of the villa are not qualified to eat such a precious thing unless Huo Junyao sends a message to reward it.

"In this case, Hongxiu, you go pick four frames, then go to the capital and deliver a basket to my father, eldest sister, sister-in-law, and the palace."

"Yes."

Hongxiu stepped back.

The frame here is not a very big frame, it is only about the size of a foot, and it can hold seven or eight kilograms of vegetables by visual inspection.

Not long after, Hong Xiu left in a carriage.

"Where are Hongxiu going?" The eldest princess came over and asked curiously as soon as she sat down.

"The vegetables in the fields grow too fast and we consume them too slowly. If they are left like this, they will get older and older. I asked her to send some to the capital."

"Dad, eldest sister, sister-in-law, and the palace."

Although winter has just begun, vegetables and other vegetables are already gone, and most people now eat pickles and the like.

Only a few people can eat fresh vegetables outside.

"The snow is so severe this year, I'm afraid some places will be hit by disasters."

"Hey, the court has no money to begin with. If we do this, I'm afraid we will be stretched again."

Hearing this, Huo Junyao was a little surprised. How could a country as big as the Yu Dynasty be so poor that it could barely make ends meet?

Although Yu Chao's money is precious, in her opinion, it is not impossible to make money. At least in her opinion, making money is very easy.

Just take the vegetables from her fields and bring them to the capital and sell them at a price that is twenty to thirty times higher than usual. There will still be many powerful people who are willing to spend money, right?

Next is the fireplace. This is a good thing. One of them is going to use thirty kilograms of iron.

The price of iron outside is [-] cents for one catty, and [-] cents for thirty jins. Even if you sell it, you can easily earn a hundred cents.

Besides, will she only sell what she always has?She had heard from Hongxiu that almost all the noble houses in the capital now wanted fireplaces.

So if you sell a three-string or a five-string, someone should want it, right?After all, this is the same style as the emperor, and it is a status symbol, right?

She even felt that even if she sold ten pieces, someone would be willing to pay.

Although ten coins is a lot of money, it is not much for those nobles.

Moreover, nobles often compare themselves to each other. If your family is better than mine, that would be very humiliating.

Even if the five guans were sold like this, she would still be able to earn [-] more coins for the four guans.

Now she still has five thousand kilograms of iron in her warehouse, which can make at least 160 fireplaces.

How many nobles are there in the capital?It’s impossible for a family to just buy one, right?At least two or three people are allowed?

So these 160 are not necessarily enough to sell. If you sell them all, you can easily earn five or six hundred guan after deducting the capital. What's more, she still has no capital, and the emperor gave her iron.

So it can almost be said to be pure profit, which is a full eight hundred strings.

It is equivalent to the salary of my father, the Duke of the country, for nearly ten years.

This is still just a very small amount. If the emperor is willing to take out the temporarily idle iron, it will definitely exceed [-] kilograms, right?
"It's so easy to make money, why can the country still have no money?"

"Silly girl, is it easy there?"

"And this is not just about money. When the snowstorm comes, the most difficult thing to endure is the cold, and some people's houses collapse."

"That's no problem. Let the yamen in various places collect the people whose houses have collapsed."

"Then there are many warehouses in local government offices, or some unused warehouses of merchants. We will first arrange the people to go in, and then I will have people build fireplaces and send them over."

"The area that one fireplace can cover is quite large. One for a smaller one is enough, and two or three for a larger one should be enough."

"And a warehouse can accommodate many people."

"As long as you get through the most difficult period, it won't cost much, right?"

As her words fell, the eldest princess was stunned. She unconsciously followed her thoughts and thought that this method seemed good.

The imperial court would provide disaster relief, but it would simply resettle the people and give them some food to keep them from starving to death.

The trouble is to resettle the people, provide heating, food, etc. There is no shortage of disaster relief food. After all, the autumn harvest has just begun, and there have been no major problems before this winter. It can be regarded as a relatively peaceful harvest year.

If he followed what his daughter said and asked local government offices and merchants to arrange for temporary storage of idle warehouses, a lot of problems could be solved.

Then there is the fireplace, which is very useful. She thinks that two or three of them are more than enough for a warehouse.
