Chapter 229 1 I don’t know
"without……"
"Then I'll say it again, Shopkeeper Chen, please listen carefully."
Jiang Jinhe said gently, "We are looking for a group of people who are good at playing the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. Both men and women are welcome, and we also need to hire a few teaching masters."
"If Manager Chen has any questions, he can ask your Highness for his opinion."
Chen Zhong's thoughts were seen through and he lowered his head in embarrassment.
In the study of Prince Chen's mansion, Prince Chen Murong Xi was sitting at the table, carefully reading the report in front of him.
These are the surveillance records of Jiang Jinhe and his group.
It was mentioned above that Jiang Jinhe left behind a shopkeeper named Zhang Zhong and did not take back the store seal.
Seeing this, Murong Xi smiled slightly.
"This woman is quite clever."
He smiled slightly and continued to read.
When he saw Jiang Jinhe's description of the pre-war preparations, the smile on his face became more obvious.
"It seems she really has the ability to get things done!"
After saying that, he pointed to a certain place on the paper and asked the old man next to him to see it.
The old man has gray hair and is dressed in gorgeous clothes. It is not difficult to tell from his bright eyes that he leads a very leisurely life in his daily life.
He was Qi Dayuan, Prince Chen's mentor and counselor. He had no children and had been kept in Prince Chen's mansion by the care of his family.
Qi Dayuan glanced at the spot on the paper and stroked his beard.
"Well, this woman does have some brains, she's different from the average rural woman."
King Chen burst into laughter.
"Even the teacher said so. I really want to meet her in person."
Qi Dayuan smiled slightly.
"Is your Highness's mind focused on how she looks? In my opinion, the Zhang family's words cannot be fully trusted."
"They might have exaggerated in order to get His Highness to attack her."
"Besides, her husband doesn't look like someone who is easy to deal with."
Murong Xi raised her eyebrows and smiled.
"Teacher, you're worrying too much. I was just saying it casually. In fact, I know very well what is most important right now. You don't need to worry too much."
Seeing this, Qi Dayuan nodded repeatedly, his face full of relief.
"Your Highness is very sensible, and I have always been very aware of this. However, now that the Ming King has suddenly risen, we should indeed strengthen our preparations to better deal with possible challenges."
After hearing this, Murong Xi frowned.
"This Ming Wang is truly adept at winning over people's hearts. He was able to attract half of the scholars and writers to follow him in such a short period of time. This situation is truly infuriating!"
Qi Dayuan said solemnly, "Your Highness, please rest assured. Scholars are ordinary people too, and they also need the basic necessities of life. As long as we can provide sufficient financial support, even if we can't completely win their hearts, we can at least ensure that some of them can be used by us."
After hearing this explanation, Murong Xi's expression gradually calmed down.
He seemed to have remembered something quite interesting, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, and he casually pulled out a memorial from the desk and handed it to Qi Dayuan.
"Teacher, please take a look at this."
Qi Dayuan took it and looked at it for a few seconds before asking in surprise, "Your Highness, have you received another report from County Magistrate Bai?"
"Yes."
Murong Xi smiled and said, "Who could have imagined that a small county like Yuefeng could raise 100,000 taels of silver in just a few days?"
"It's really surprising that someone could run a business in such a unique environment and make so much money in a place that no one else has noticed."
"However," Murong Xi's smile widened, "more importantly," he said, "according to County Magistrate Bai's report, if operations continue as they are now, Yuefeng County will soon experience a dramatic population increase, which will in turn lead to rapid economic prosperity. From now on, whether calculated on an annual or monthly basis, revenue will continue to increase, not decrease."
"This is really great!"
Upon hearing this, Qi Dayuan suddenly became very excited, and then stood up and bowed deeply to Murong Xi.
"Congratulations, Your Highness, on the good news."
The corners of Murong Xi's lips rose slightly, and he let out a hearty laugh.
Jiang Jinhe naturally knew nothing about what was happening in Prince Chen's Mansion.
At this moment, she was busy decorating Yueman Building. She was very busy, running from upstairs to downstairs, and from downstairs back upstairs, busy like a spinning top that could never stop.
The whole building has four floors, and she had to check and arrange each floor personally, which made her legs almost broken from running.
Once, she accidentally sat down at the top of the stairs and slid down the steps. The loyal old servant Chen Zhong who was following behind her was so scared that he shouted and his face changed.
After more than half a month of hard work and dedication day and night, she finally successfully drew the design drawings for the entire Yueman Building.
According to her plan, all the connectable spaces from the first to the fourth floors will be opened up, so that once visitors step through the door, they can easily and freely move around every corner.
For example, on the first floor, she plans to transform it into a large leisure area, leaving enough space in the middle to display a variety of novel and beautiful small items - not only various skin care products and decorations, but also many precious jewelry, jade and other pleasing treasures waiting for guests to discover.
Originally, there were only two stairs, one in the east and one in the west, available for access between the upper and lower floors. However, corresponding modifications have been made according to Jiang Jinhe's requirements. Not only have many new stairs leading to various places been added, but these new roads have also been cleverly connected to the first floor.
This way, even the most casual visitor can naturally follow these new paths to explore the second floor and even deeper.
When it comes to the special delicacies that will be launched on the second floor, Jiang Jinhe already has an idea in mind.
The first thing that is indispensable is naturally traditional snacks such as dried tofu and tofu. After all, these things have always been regular guests on people’s tables.
Next up are the currently popular hot pot and barbecue, and of course, refreshing options like cold drinks and smoothies.
In order to cater to the unique eating habits of the local Yindu residents, she even added some heart-warming delicacies such as soups, stews and rice porridge.
In addition, she also did not forget to prepare a series of snacks - fried chicken nuggets, potato chips, French fries, etc.
After all, this prosperous place gathers many wealthy people who pursue high-quality life, and they are naturally more picky about food: it must not only be exquisite and attractive, but also delicious.
Therefore, Jiang Jinhe carefully improved some cake recipes. In addition, he also carefully designed dozens of unique desserts.
These snacks include but are not limited to jujube paste cake, jujube paste biscuit, pine nut and lily pastry, poria cocos cake and osmanthus cake.
