The Story of Dafujin Parenting in Qing Dynasty

Chapter 233 The Chicken Incident 2
He Zhuo proposed to visit the place where the common people lived, and said that he would take the children to see it together in a few days to experience the sufferings of the world, and Yinti was not that dude, so the two came together.

Hezhuo carefully asked about the prices, meat, rice, flour, eggs, duck eggs and so on.

The two of them had been wandering outside for a long time, and when it was time for dinner, they went to He Zhuo's dowry shop, which was now well-run by Yinzhen.

When He Zhuo first married, he thought that if he could take out the fruit wine and honey produced there in the future, it would be bad if there was no source, so he bought several hilltops in the south in the first year of marriage, and planted flowers. , those who grow fruit trees, in addition to selling to the locals, they also make wine from fruits and flowers, make spices, scented tea and so on.

It will be sent to the capital once a year, except that part of the wine will be sold in his own winery, and it will be given to Brother Jiu Yinzhen, who will find a way to sell it.

Therefore, Hezhuo’s income in the past two years is still good. There is a net income of 5 taels a year. However, in the past two years, Hezhuo has sold more than ten pieces of jade one after another. , The group of people that He Zhuo had arranged in the medicine village when he was a child also dispersed, and He Zhuo would look for them if he had anything to do.

On the Empress Dowager's 55th birthday, the white jade Guanyin and the white jade Ruyi presented by the prince were made of jade sold by Hezhuo.The two are from the same piece of jade, this one is actually the upper-middle grade of the Hezhuo storage ring, but it is very large and the color is very uniform, which can barely be called the top grade, because generally the top grades are relatively small.

For this one piece, He Zhuo received more than 1 taels of silver, so it is not an exaggeration to say that He Zhuo is very rich now.

Low-key, low-key, to hide wealth!
Today, when Hezhuo asked about the prices of rice noodles, meat, chicken and duck, Yinti was by his side. When he returned to the mansion, Hezhuo handed Yinti a ledger.

The above clearly records the daily food expenses of the family: 30 yuan for a chicken, 40 yuan for a duck, 200 yuan for a catty of pork, 400 yuan for a catty of mutton, and several kinds of rice, the most being 150 yuan for a catty , There are also several kinds of noodles, the most is 100 Wen per catty.

And the prices heard by ordinary people today.

Chickens cost two pennies, ducks cost one penny or two, pork costs 10-15 pennies a catty, mutton is not seen, rice also costs 8-25 pennies, and pasta is about the same price.

The account book in this mansion is upside down. The slaves who eat inside and outside are all reported ten times and dozens of times. When they were in the palace, everyone in the mansion had their own records, even the monthly accounts of the palace maids were issued by the palace. Yes, now that it's out, except for Yinti and Zhuo and Nalan Cefujin who have salaries and stipulations, they all have to spend their own money. These dog slaves are actually greedy for the Lord.

Yinti is a child of the royal family, so he naturally knows that when water is clear, there will be no fish, but he did not expect that the water would be so muddy, and the mansion would be embezzled so much just for food, and there are many other things, wouldn't it be so soon? Grandpa is about to be eaten away by these moths.

In fact, Yinti was biased by Hezhuo. After all, other places generally don’t offer dozens of times the price, usually ten times or ten times. This is a common practice, and big families do this.

Hezhuo didn't care about the next thing, Yinti rushed over and copied the homes of several buyers in the house, and the few buyers were directly killed by Yinti, yes, betrayal is more hated than corruption, these few days There are concubine Hui's accompanying room, and Yinti's son who is the shopkeeper in the other property, and one of them is the son of the nanny who was driven away before.

After all, the nanny has taken care of Yinti for many years, so there is always affection.
