Grandmaster Koi Daily [Red Mansion]

Jia Amnesty couldn't help but exclaimed when he saw the red fox fur in the box, he was so excited that he didn't know where to put it.Situ Chen smiled and took out the red fox fur and put it on Jia Amnesty, and nodded in satisfaction when he saw that there was still more than a foot left on the ground.

Red fox furs are hard to come by, and Jia She estimated that at least six to eight red foxes with similar coat colors are needed to get together such a large blanket.

Even if the catch is successful, it will take a while to remove the oil, wash the skin, last it, lower it, dry it and sew it.

"When did the lord ask someone to look for it? Why didn't I hear a single letter?"

If Jia Amnesty had known about this surprise in advance, would it still be a surprise?

"At that time in Qiuxi, I saw that Enhou was annoyed for a long time because he missed a red fox. That's when people went to look for it." Situ Chen took the red fox skin from Jia She's body and handed it to Liu Yu to fold it up. Then put it on Jia Amnesty's bed. "It's cold and humid in the south in winter, and it's much more comfortable to cover with this fox fur at night."

This fox fur is too big for one person to cover, it is suitable for two people to cover together...

The small calculations in Situ Chen's heart were crackling.

Jia Amnesty sat by the bed and touched the smooth red fox fur, and quickly guessed Situ Chen's intention to give him such a big fox fur blanket. Kicked off the bed.

Just as Situ Chen was also sitting by the bed and wanted to put his hands on Jia Amnesty's, a small official came over and said that the gambling stones had been peeled, and asked Jia Amnesty if he wanted to go and have a look.

Situ Chen withdrew his hand in time, glanced at the little official who came at an untimely time, and asked how the quality of the jade mined from those gambling stones was.

Get out of here immediately!

"Jade is good or bad just by listening to the description, and you don't have an idea. Don't you know if you go and see it yourself? Does the prince want to go together?"

Jia She felt that they would still be together for a long time in the future, so it's better to be more cautious now.

Of course Situ Chen was going, and he would go wherever Jia She went.

The craftsman has already removed the stone skin of the gambling stone, and put six pieces of jade of similar quality in front of Jia She.Among them, three pieces were intended for the children in Beijing, two pieces were reserved by Nan'an County King, and the remaining piece was picked by Jia She on a whim.

"Come and see if this piece can be carved into a steam pot? It doesn't need to be too big, as long as it can be used." Jia Amnesty picked out the most transparent piece of jade and asked the little official to show it to the craftsman.

boiler?

At first, the craftsman thought he had heard it wrong, and didn't understand what the steam pot Jia She was talking about was.After confirming that what Jia She wanted was the steam pot for stewing chicken, the craftsman almost shook his hand and threw the jade material on the ground.

Making a steam pot is not like making a jade bowl. You can carve something by digging out the heart in the middle.If it's a steam pot, all the materials in the steam pot will be lost...

Reluctant to let the child not be tied to the wolf, Jia She would not do a loss-making business.Since all the materials in the steam pot have been turned into jade shavings, these jade shavings should not be wasted.Jia Amnesty wanted to promote the steam pot, and this gimmick was absolutely indispensable.

And the best spokesperson is none other than His Majesty the Emperor.

It's better to grind the scraps left over from carving into jade chips and knead them into the terracotta clay for making the steam pot, so that what is burned out is not an ordinary steam pot.Jade is a treasure of heaven and earth. Wouldn't it be more nourishing to cook this food together with the treasure of heaven and earth?

As long as this steam pot chicken is placed on His Majesty's imperial banquet, it won't be long before the restaurants in the capital will offer almost the same dishes, and after a while, the restaurants in the south of the Yangtze River will follow suit...

His Majesty the emperor used a steam boiler with jade chips, but ordinary people can use ordinary steam boilers?

"This... can this work?" Situ Chen was a little worried about Jia She's thoughts, would this make his father feel that he was being perfunctory?

This is just a preliminary idea Jia Amnesty had.It's really perfunctory to just knead some jade chips in the clay, so let's stick some jade flakes on the pot wall.This time the jade is tangible, His Majesty the Emperor can no longer feel that he has been fooled.

Knowing that the jade pieces he cut would be used in the steam boiler for His Majesty the Emperor, the craftsman immediately kowtowed to Jia Amnesty and promised that the jade pieces would be finished

Of course, I will also fix the steam boiler that the governor wants.

Situ Chen looked at the remaining five pieces on the table, picked the three pieces with the best jade quality and pushed them aside. It was obvious that the remaining two pieces belonged to the Prince of Nan'an.

"Don't be like this, although the king of Nan'an County hasn't given the money yet, we can't fool him too much."

As Jia Amnesty said, he tapped the medium-colored piece with his elbow, signaling Situ Chen to change it.

"Anyway, it's for Lian'er to play with, so it doesn't need very good materials... Adding these two pieces together, it's not too much to ask Nan'an County King for 3000 taels of silver."

Jia Amnesty's calculations are well done.

If the king of Nan'an County sent someone to spend 2000 taels to buy gambling stones, maybe what kind of stones they would get out.He just gave the jade material without the stone skin to the king of Nan'an County, and only added 1000 taels.

Which one is cost-effective, Nan'an County King's toes can figure it out.

The six gambling stones cost 5000 taels, and two pieces of jade were sold to Nan'an County King for 3000 taels, which means they bought four pieces of jade for only 2000 taels, and one piece was only 500 taels.

With Jia Amnesty, who has excellent eyesight, Situ Chen suddenly felt that gambling with stones was really a good way to make a fortune. "Why don't we use gambling stones to open a jade shop, with Enhou's vision, we can definitely make a lot of money."

In fact, Jia Amnesty has also thought about this, but he just felt that the stone gambling road is too deep, and there are not many people in contact with it, and the disadvantages have not been exposed. But it's hard to say.

"Enhou is afraid that someone will pass it off as a good one?"

"It's because I'm afraid that someone will confuse the real with the fake!"

If someone is shoddy, the buyer will get at least a piece of jade, but the jade is not worth the money.

I'm afraid that someone will see that the stone gambling industry is making money too fast, and they will use ordinary stones to disguise themselves as gambling stones to cheat.Normal betting stones are [-] taels a piece, if he sells [-] taels a piece, tourists from other places will definitely flock to them.

If there are more foreign tourists who are deceived, the reputation of the local area will be stinky, and once the reputation is stinky, no amount of hard work in the early stage will be in vain.

To restore credibility, the difficulty is no less than climbing to the sky.

Situ Chen had never considered this aspect before, but he understood that Jia Amnesty's worries were not groundless.Businessmen value profit, and if there is a business that is worthless, they are absolutely willing to try their best to do it.

This matter must not be dealt with until it happens. We must stop this shameless behavior before it comes to the fore!

"Enhou thinks how to deal with this matter?" Situ Chen felt that since Jia She could think of this, he should have a rough solution.

Jia Amnesty did have a general idea, that is, he must prove that the stones in his shop are real gambling stones before they can be sold.

As for how to prove it, just remove a little skin from the gambling stone to expose the jade inside.A gambling stone the size of a fist is the size of a fingernail, and a gambling stone as long as a forearm is the size of a palm.

As for someone who "takes the edge of the sword" and dares to inlay jade pieces on the peeled surface, it will be a crime!

Situ Chen nodded after hearing this, and felt that Jia Amnesty's idea was very good.Only by pinching the source of the fraud and deterring it with harsh punishments will the gang of desperate villains dare not act recklessly.

"Let the prefect of Kunming order this matter, and then go to him to see how he is doing with the investigation of special products. Enhou thinks this is good?"

The prefect of Kunming is more familiar with the local area, and his identity is also suitable for this matter.

"Very good!"

When Situ Chen and Jia She returned to Kunming last night, the prefect of Kunming had been anxiously waiting for the completion of the inspection work. He was so nervous that he didn't sleep well. He woke up early in the morning and continued to look at the special products presented by his subordinates. And related introductions, I am afraid that one thing that is not done well will delay the common people from poverty and become rich.

The prefect of Kunming specially arranged a warehouse for storing local specialties.As soon as Situ Chen and Jia Amnesty came over, the prefect of Kunming took them to the warehouse.

There are eight shelves in the warehouse, and there are small strips with names and places of origin on the bottom of the special products on each shelf.Jia Amnesty took a look at every item on the shelf in the warehouse, and then listened to the explanation of the items by the prefect of Kunming.

Even Situ Chen was very satisfied with this, obviously the prefect of Kunming put a lot of thought into it.

"Let's taste the difference between Xuanwei ham and Jinhua ham later, and make a pot of Pu'er tea. Why isn't this flower cake on display?"

Jia Amnesty guessed that the flower cakes were removed from the warehouse because they had been stored for a long time, and there was no time to replace them with fresh ones.

The prefect of Kunming nodded again and again, indicating that it was indeed the case.

Every day, he would order the cook to bake fresh flower cakes and wait for the two adults. Today's flower cakes should still be baked, and the freshly baked flower cakes will be ready after a while...

"Is the raw material used to make flower cakes pickled sugar roses or dried roses?"

Jia She has done canned food and knows that as long as the candied food is not polluted, it can be preserved for a period of time without deterioration.If the filling of this flower cake can be preserved for a long time, it will be very popular if it is made into fresh flower cake in the capital and Jiangnan area for sale.

After all, this thing has never appeared before, whether it is in the capital or in the south of the Yangtze River, and what you eat is a fresh one.

"I brought pickled sugar roses. There is white sugar improved by adults, and the appearance of sugar roses has improved a lot." The prefect of Kunming flattered Jia She, and Jia She was stunned for a moment before he realized it.

Pickling roses with white sugar will not change the color of roses, but it will help improve the appearance of sugar roses.

"Under the leadership of Enhou, the people of Yunnan and Guizhou will definitely become rich." Situ Chen praised Jia She's level is much higher than the prefect of Kunming, Jia She unconsciously raised his eyebrows after hearing this Mouth.

The prefect of Kunming secretly gave Situ Chen a thumbs up.It's really worthy of being a prince, this shot... the kung fu of boasting people is amazing...

Jia Amnesty dragged Situ Chen around the shelf for a few more times, and when he learned that the cakes were baked, he left the warehouse to taste the cakes.

Looking at the unpretentious appearance of the flower cake, Jia She felt that if he didn't tell him that it was a flower cake, he would have thought it was an ordinary shortbread.But after taking a bite, Jia Amnesty immediately opened his eyes wide, savoring the taste of roses between his lips and teeth.

"You can't be judged by appearances, you have to taste the flower cakes, you don't know how delicious they are."

Situ Chen also liked the taste of flower cakes, but he wanted to taste other specialties later, so he stopped after eating another one.Jia Amnesty knew that Situ Chen was self-disciplined rather than disliking flower cakes, so he only ate two and began to study how to make the flower cakes look different from ordinary shortcakes.

To make the flower cake look different, just print a flower on the crust.

"There is a kind of dim sum in the palace where red dots are placed on the crust. Let's just carve a small stamp of petals and cover it." Situ Chen suddenly came up with inspiration, and asked the prefect of Kunming to take a pen and ink, and with a few simple strokes, it would be fine. Outline the shape of a rose.

After the problem of the cake pattern was solved, Jia Amnesty talked to the prefect of Kunming about the stone betting.But before he spoke, Jia Amnesty first asked the prefect of Kunming how many disputes caused by gambling with stones he could remember, and what the final result was.

The topic suddenly turned to gambling stones, and the prefect of Kunming felt a drum in his heart.

In the past, disputes caused by betting on stones were not uncommon. In the end, they basically played [-] boards each, and occasionally ordered the seller to return half of the money to the buyer...

"When the road is repaired in the future, more people will come here for business and pleasure, and there will be more such things. So I and the governor thought of a way, and you come and hear if it works."

Jia Amnesty told the prefect of Kunming what he had said to Situ Chen before, and then Situ Chen talked about the sentencing standards for different degrees of fraud.

Less than 100 taels will be sentenced to □ three years, 100 to [-] taels will be sentenced to three years to ten years, if more than [-] taels, it will be considered atrocious, all personal property will be confiscated and beheaded!

Hearing the word beheading, the prefect of Kunming swallowed.I have long heard that His Royal Highness King Qin is "cruel and merciless", but I didn't expect that 100 taels of silver would be ransacked and beheaded.But it's better to deter him first, as the governor said, it will be too late to remedy his reputation.

"The next official understands, so I will send someone to do it."

"Don't be too anxious about this matter, it can be done in a month." If the urging is too hard, the merchants may complain, so at the beginning, we have to follow the route of hello, me, everyone...

When it was time to eat, Jia She picked up a piece of stir-fried ham and savored it carefully. He always felt that the plate of ham in front of him was more fragrant than any plate of ham he had eaten before.

The magistrate introduced that the piece of ham Jia She ate had been fermented for more than two years, so the aroma was naturally stronger.The reason why the ham here can be fermented for so long is related to the local climate.

"This ham is really delicious. I should give some to the children to taste. I also give a big one to His Majesty the Emperor, and express my heart."

Jia She mentioned the emperor again in Ham, and the magistrate vaguely guessed what Jia She was planning.The governor is also a ruthless person who dares to play tricks under the eyes of His Majesty the emperor. He deserves to be the governor at a young age.

If it were him, he wouldn't dare to give him ten bear hearts and leopard guts...

After tasting some special foods and drinking the unaccustomed Pu'er tea, Jia She and Situ Chen returned to their courtyard to rest for a while, preparing to write letters and choose gifts to send to the capital.

The ham must be sent, and the flower cakes cannot be sent to the finished ones, so send the sugar roses and the made recipes to the capital.As for the boiler, Situ Chen planned to put it aside first.March [-]th was his father's longevity, if he had given all the good things to his father before the new year, it would be difficult to accept the gifts at that time.

Every year, he has a headache for birthday presents, but this year he plans to give a steamer that is cheap and meaningful.

No one of his brothers could have imagined such an idea!

"My lord gave His Majesty the steam boiler, so what should I give His Majesty..." Now that Jia Amnesty can be regarded as a great official of the frontier, he can no longer randomly pick out unmatched calligraphy and paintings as before to make up for the number.

Situ Chen originally wanted to say that you and I are a family, so just give one as a gift.But after thinking about it, he still didn't say it.

"Eunhou asked the craftsman to carve the steam pot with jade, let the craftsman carve a group of Eight Immortals crossing the sea with the jade, and I will pay for the silver." You sent the steam pot first, so Jia Amnesty left the jade steam The pot is easy to say, and the jade in Yunnan is also a major local feature.

Situ Chen thought very carefully about Jia Amnesty, and Jia Amnesty was so moved that he was speechless for a long time.

Sometimes words of thanks don't need to be said, Situ Chen received Jia She's thanks just by looking at Jia She.

"Let's write a letter first, Father's longevity is still several months away..."

Just as Situ Chen was about to write a letter, Situ Chen first received a letter, which was the result of the investigation he had sent to Jia Zheng a few days ago.

"Enhou, let's take a look at this first. Jia Zheng's county government has been repaired." Situ Chen handed the letter to Jia She, who shook his head and thought it was more important to write letters to the children. "That's all he did. He couldn't run away and had conflicts with Mrs. Wang."

Jia Amnesty really got it right, so Situ Chen put the letter aside and picked up the pen and paper again.

Jia Amnesty didn't have much to say, just said that everything was fine with him, and that the two children should listen to their elders more.If he likes to eat the food he sent, he will have someone send it to him in a few days...

When it was time to rest at night, Situ Chen took Liu Yu and his footbath to Jia She's room.

Seeing Situ Chen's attitude of "I won't leave this room tonight", Jia She reluctantly took off his boots and squeezed Situ Chen into the same basin to wash his feet, and by the way, he talked about going to bed at night.

Situ Chen said that it would be good for him to sleep inside, so that he would not be afraid of being kicked out of bed.

Well, the two of them slept in the same bed more than once, and slept together every day in the carriage.

After covering the red fox fur blanket, Situ Chen said good night to Jia She.The hand under the blanket hesitated again and again, and finally touched the back of Jia Amnesty's hand.

"My lord, the king of Nan'an County is here to visit..."

"Go and tell him we're asleep!"

Situ Chen dug out the little book of vengeance, and made a big contribution to the king of Nan'an County!
