Ren Baqian waited in the imperial dining room for a while before being taken back to the beast garden.
That sentence was also passed down: "Go back and prepare, and come back in four days."
Originally, Ren Baqian wanted to bring some cooked food, but he thought that the people in the imperial dining room didn't like him, so he better not ask for trouble.
It's better to go back by yourself and learn how to cook for two days. Otherwise, if one's own craftsmanship is not done well, it will be embarrassing.
Although two days can't turn a novice into a chef, but I already know some superficial meals, and if I learn a few more, I should be able to improve in two days.
With the addition of various seasonings from the earth, it should satisfy the empress who is in the palace but eats meals made with those few simple seasonings, right
Even if it's not that satisfying, as long as it doesn't feel unpalatable.
Back at the animal garden, the handymen had already crawled under the table.
After all, they don't have much time to drink, and their capacity for alcohol is not much better.
At the steward's table, only Steward Shi was left drinking alone.
"They're all dead, they're going back to rest. How about it, why is Your Majesty recruiting you?" Steward Shi became sober after waiting for these times.
"It's been hot recently, Your Majesty can't eat anything, so I made some shaved ice." Ren Baqian laughed. He was very grateful to Steward Shi for waiting for him here. It could be seen that he really cared about him.
"What is shaved ice?" Steward Shi asked curiously.
"It's just ice and juice." Ren Baqian said, suddenly thought of an idea, in such a hot place, opening two shaved ice shops in the city must be very popular.
But in this world, my own eyes are smeared, and I don't understand anything. If I do it myself, there must be a lot of trouble. And I have too many things on hand, things like shaved ice shops are not important to me at all, it is better to cooperate with others, which can save a lot of trouble.
And the steward Shi in front of him is a very good candidate for cooperation. Although his appearance is a bit disabled, he is really straightforward, and he treats himself well these days. Cooperating with him can deepen the relationship between the two.
Thinking of this, Su Wen said to Guan Shi: "Guan Shi is waiting for me here, I'll go get some good things."
When Steward Shi heard this, he laughed immediately: "Well, I'll see if Steward Ren has any good things."
Ren Baqian went to the ice cellar to break a piece of ice, packed it with something and took it to the kitchen to make another shaved ice, and took it back after a while.
"Taste it." Ren Baqian pushed Guanshi a bowl.
"Isn't this just iced?" Guanshi Shi smiled. He had never seen ice in his life, but he was familiar with it these days. Now before going to bed, he would put a spray of ice next to his bed, which would make him feel refreshed when he slept.
"Try it." Ren Baqian said with a smile.
Steward Shi looked at him suspiciously, and stirred it with a spoon twice: "Is this ice?"
"This is shaved ice, try it."
Steward Shi imitated Ren Baqian and stuffed a spoonful into his mouth, the mixture of coldness and sour-sweet penetrated to the bottom of his heart.
"Ha—it's so cold!" Steward Shi shouted as soon as he scooped it down, his throat was almost frozen just now.
After a while, he continued to take a small bite, and sighed: "It's comfortable, it's a pleasure to eat this on a hot day."
"Steward Shi, do you plan to start a business?" Ren Baqian asked with a smile.
"Business? I'm a vulgar person, what business can I do?" Steward Shi looked up at Ren Baqian while eating with a bowl in his hand, as if he wasn't very interested.
The main reason is that his family knows his own affairs. Steward Shi claims that firstly he has no money, and secondly he knows nothing about everything, so he can only rely on this little salary for food.
"That's it!" Ren Baqian pointed at the bowl and said.
"This? Shaved ice? You want me to sell this?" Steward Shi asked in surprise.
"Yes, is Guanshi Shi interested?" Ren Baqian laughed.
"Yes, there is, but you can make this thing yourself, what do you want me to do? I don't know how to do it." Steward Shi put down the bowl and rubbed his head.
"I'm not familiar with this place, so it's too troublesome to do it by myself. It's better to make this money with Steward Shi as a partner. In the future, if Steward Shi has something good to do, just think of me as a brother."
"If this thing is not expensive, there must be many people buying it. Are you really willing?"
"It's okay, business is a win-win situation, and we can earn money together." Ren Baqian directly used Chen Qing's father's words, and now he felt that these words were very reasonable.
There are so many things on the earth that can be taken over, such as food, play, and use, how much can I do even if I am exhausted
It's better to do it all with others, others show up to deal with various things, and you only need to count the money behind.
There are so many benefits to doing so.
For one thing, you don't have to show up all day long to deal with all kinds of complicated things, and you can still earn a lot of income.
Second, it can bind a large number of partners with itself. And these, it is best to be His Majesty and the big shots in the court and China.
In this way, I will be much safer in the future, and no one will easily trouble me.
Even if someone makes trouble for him, there is still that group of big shots behind him.
As for myself, what I want to do, what I want to do, where I want to play, this is to enjoy life.
After listening to Ren Baqian's words, Steward Shi immediately gave a thumbs up: "Brother Ren is a cheerful person, it would be too hypocritical for me to say anything else. Just like what Brother Ren said, we are a partner in this business."
After hearing this, Ren Baqian immediately poured wine for the two and touched a bowl.
It must be easier to integrate into this world by yourself in the future.
After drinking, Ren Baqian asked again: "What are Brother Shi planning to do?"
"How to do it..." Steward Shi looked blankly at Ren Baqian: "Find a shop and let my mother-in-law sell it. Brother, you make ice, my mother-in-law sells it, and earns half of our family."
As soon as Ren Baqian slapped his forehead, he guessed it would be like this.
Can't help but say: "Brother Shi, how much can you sell in a day like this?"
"It should be possible to sell several hundred bowls, right? There are so many people in this city." Steward Shi began to snap his fingers, not realizing that there was something wrong with his thinking at all.
"In such a big city, others can't cross half the city to buy a bowl of shaved ice, right? How much money can you make if you exhaust your sister-in-law like this?"
Steward Shi heard that there were other meanings in Ren Baqian's words, and asked, "Brother Ren, what do you think?"
"First ask, how long can such hot weather last in a year?"
"How could it be more than half a year?" Steward Shi thought about it.
"That's fine. Let's set up ten shops together, distributed in various places in the city. Anyone who wants to buy can find a shop nearby. The sales of shaved ice are sure to be comparable, and no shop will be idle. Earn money The money is not ten times that of a store, but five times is enough, right?"
"That's the reason, but can ice be supplied? Your Majesty's side is the main thing."
"Ice making is simple. I'll teach you. Let's hire people, open ten stores together, and sell them to other cities when they're ready. We'll split the bills fifty-fifty."
"Hiss! Brother Ren, don't talk too much. If I stutter in the future, I will definitely not miss you, brother." Steward Shi immediately slapped the table and said.
The two drank until midnight, when Ren Baqian stepped on something soft as soon as he returned to the room.
Looking at the oil lamp, the two little guys pulled the ground.
Ren Baqian's face twitched for a long time, seeing the two little guys huddled in the corner and fell asleep, after all, he was not willing to pick them up and beat them up.
