Chapter 483 Wholesale
Jiang Xinyan ate a plate of scrambled eggs by herself, and it was almost enough to put her stomach on it. If she was still sitting on the table, she might have eaten a few pieces of fried chicken.
Since it's okay to leave, she doesn't care about what she eats. She likes to watch the girls go crazy with anger.
So, she doesn't mind Zhao Qingqing's attitude, she's just an irrelevant person, and it's not the mother's turn to be angry.
Although Mrs. General also disliked Jiang Xinyan as an exile, she did not dare to offend Jiang Xinyan.
Today's four dishes are already the best dishes in their general's house. The two concubines and three young ladies took the initiative to leave when they saw Jiang Xinyan.
They secretly rejoiced, and then they all ate their meals in silence. They hadn't eaten such a hearty meal for a long time.
Reminisce once, they had ten dishes per meal! Why! This locust plague has really affected too much. It is said that the Houfu in the capital has only four dishes for a meal.
Mrs. General could only eat her full meal first, and she hadn't eaten a full meal for a long time, only Zhao Qingqing was so angry that she didn't want to eat.
Chu Lixuan held chopsticks and tasted each dish. The taste was very ordinary, even a little unpalatable.
It wouldn't be hard to swallow, after all, compared to the food he ate a year ago, it was a little better, and he swallowed it calmly.
Chu Lixuan has grown a mouthful ever since he got married to his little wife, and he is not used to such food.
Thinking of her, he raised his eyes to look at Jiang Xinyan. He couldn't see clearly through the curtain, and he heard that she was playing tricks on the ladies again, and he tried his best to suppress his smile.
Zhao Chengan saw that Chu Lixuan didn't eat much and there was a faint smile on his face, he knew that the food was not to his taste, it was already their best meal.
He is a person who knows the current affairs very well, so he took his sons to devour meals, and did not care about Chu Lixuan.
The two generals wanted to invite Chu Lixuan to eat, but Zhao Chengan glared at them, and quickly lowered their heads to eat.
They were all focused on the food, and they didn't hear the movement of the women's family's table.
After everyone finished eating, they sat in the living room and drank tea for a while. Zhao Chengan's son, the general's wife and several young ladies, and the lieutenants were all there.
Zhao Qingqing disliked Chu Lixuan as a convict, and at the same time he couldn't help but like to peek at him.
Zhao Chengan and the lieutenants have great respect for Chu Lixuan and his wife, and they use your honorific names when speaking. Jiang Xinyan said enough in the afternoon.
She sat quietly beside Chu Lixuan, it was impossible for the couple to not talk! Then Chu Lixuan could only play in person.
Zhao Chengan and the lieutenants wanted Chu Lixuan's food very much, so they were all talking about how hard they were. Seeing the Nanman invasion, Xichu wanted to take the opportunity to rob and get a share of the soup.
"Master Chu, you may not know that this time, Xichu sent a fierce general, injured several of our generals, and finally fought a tie with our general." Said the strategist.
"Our generals and Western Chu generals have both suffered internal injuries. We have verbally agreed to rest for three days before the decisive battle. Tomorrow, we will come to fight again. Legend has it that Lord Chu is heroic and invincible."
Chu Lixuan said: "Since Brother Zhao's internal injury has not healed, tomorrow I will meet him on behalf of Brother Zhao to see how fierce the general is."
He has been with Jiang Xinyan for a long time, and his speech is naturally a lot more humorous and humorous, and he is no longer the same word by word as before.
"Really? You are fighting on behalf of our generals? It's great, we can finally raise our eyebrows."
"Brother Chu can help you next, and you can definitely defeat Western Chu in one fell swoop." It would be better to sell food to our Zhenxi Army.
Zhao Chengan was embarrassed to say the last sentence, but just relying on Chu Lixuan being able to help him was something he could not ask for.
Zhao Qingqing saw that her father was very respectful to Xianxian, and the lieutenants were even more obedient to him, and her heart became active again.
The military advisor saw that it was getting late, "Master Chu is tired from running all the way, please rest early, and finally ask Mrs. Chu for the food."
"Well, our people are already on the way. As long as your money is ready, you can speed up at any time."
asked eagerly: "What kind of food did Madam Chu prepare this time? What price?"
"50,000 stone for polished rice, calculated at 2261 stone, and 100,000 stone for cornmeal, at 221 stone, can you accept it?"
Zhao Chengan and the lieutenants looked at Chu Lixuan in disbelief, God! 50,000 stone of polished rice is equivalent to 6.3 million catties, and they actually have so much grain in their hands.
"Mrs. Chu said the price is fair. We can also accept this amount. Our silver may only be enough to pay for 100,000 shi of cornmeal. You see...can..."
Before the military advisor could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Zhao Chengan, "We all need it, we all need it, we will pay a portion of the money first, and wait for me to write to the Hou Mansion. Is this okay?"
Jiang Xinyan thought, 100,000 shi of cornmeal, and 200,000 taels of silver, haha made a fortune, and finally earned a lot of money.
This is still the private money of the husband and wife. The food is grown by the husband and wife in the space. The cornmeal in the castle will be sold to the capital at that time.
"Yes, if General Zhao writes to the capital, by the way, help us to ask if anyone else can buy food? We will give you 10,000 shi of early rice as an introduction fee."
It's not that the couple can't go to the capital to sell food, just put on some makeup, but it's easier to do wholesale when an acquaintance recommends them.
"Our family also needs to buy food. May I ask Mrs. Chu, will your food be delivered to the capital?" A lieutenant asked cautiously.
Master Chu and the others are exiles, so they shouldn't dare to go to the capital! Why! Why can't I keep my mouth shut!
"Send it! It will definitely be delivered. Tell them to pay with one hand and deliver the goods with one hand, and both the money and the goods will be delivered." Jiang Xinyan said boldly.
Everyone had a good chat, and they were still unfinished, but Chu Lixuan said that his daughter-in-law was tired and wanted to rest.
After breakfast the next day, Zhao Chengan diligently led Chu Lixuan and his wife to ride around the barracks. There was still a big difference between the Zhenxi barracks and the Zhenbei barracks.
Because it hasn't been destroyed for decades, the most distinctive feature of the Zhenxi Barracks is that there are military brothels.
Zhao Chengan said that all the soldiers brought their families to the military camp, which was impossible, so there were military prostitutes.
is not what Jiang Xinyan thinks about robbing civilian girls and forcing them to become military prostitutes, but a voluntary choice of occupation.
Many widowed women did not have any skills and could not continue to survive. In the past, the imperial court recruited military prostitutes.
is a good way out for widowed women, which is equivalent to the court paying money to buy these women.
This incident itself is an act of insulting women, and no matter how many military prostitutes are recruited, there will be no more than one soldier in the military camp.
So gradually, even if it was voluntary, no one was willing to do it, so military prostitutes gradually became compulsory.
For example, if that official in the court made a major mistake and the official was beheaded, oh! His daughter-in-law is about to be unlucky.
There are also exiled prisoners, but Zhao Chengan dare not say this, after all, the two beside him are exiles...
