A few nights ago, Chu Wei was absent, the bed was a little cold, and Luo Jianjia didn't sleep well.
Last night, when Chu Wei came back cold, Luo Jianjia kept holding him to sleep and slept very well.
So much so that I woke up a little later the next morning.
It's a pity that when Chu Wei Leng woke up, he was no longer by his side, and the temperature in the bed was also dropping.
Thinking of moving today, Luo Jianjia got up after listening to Zhao's voice outside.
Pushing the door open, the outside has become a vast expanse of white.
When she first opened the door, Luo Jianjia felt her eyes hurt from shaking.
Gradually get used to it.
Zhao Shi wrapped his clothes and said, "It's so cold today, I feel like I haven't been warm all night."
Luo Jianjia slept very well.
Looking at Zhao's cold reddish hand, she raised it and held it, and said, "Daughter-in-law will boil some ginger soup and drink it to drive away the cold."
Zhao Shi hurriedly said: "No, no, it's too troublesome. We will move to the General's House in a while. There is a kang over there, which is warm."
Luo Jianjia insisted: "Let's drink some, to get rid of the cold, so as not to catch the cold."
Seeing her like this, Zhao shi didn't insist any longer.
After having breakfast and drinking the ginger soup, everyone moved the rest to the General's House.
Before leaving, I looked at the place where I lived for half a year and felt a lot of emotion.
"At first, I thought this place was too small, not as big as our family, so why would I be reluctant now?" If it weren't for the fact that this place was too small and it was too troublesome to get a kang, I would have wanted to live here for the rest of my life. " Zhao said.
"Isn't it? Although it's small, it's strange to live in." Old Chu said.
"However, our family will have more and more people in the future, and this yard will not be enough." When he said this, Mrs. Zhao looked at Luo Jianjia, "Let's move there quickly."
Although Luo Jianjia understood what Zhao meant, he just pretended not to hear it, and moved the things in the house in silence.
However, he also thought about Zhao's words in his heart.
Now there are only four or five rooms here and a small yard. They are often not at home, but are busy in the shop.
I don't think it's small, but if there are more people in the family in the future, it will indeed be small.
The things were moved in a while, and they came here almost every day from the General's House recently, and there was nothing to clean up. After everything was in order, a few of them went to the shop.
The Chu family is not a person who likes to socialize, and basically all the entertainment was pushed by Chu Weileng.
Even for things like moving, they didn't want to invite anyone over.
After all, now that Chu Wei Leng's official position is high, if all his colleagues come over, they will definitely bring a generous gift.
Unexpectedly, Wang Qingjue, who had not seen her for nearly half a month, suddenly came over at dinner time.
Not only came, but also brought a big congratulatory gift.
"Sister-in-law, I brought you money."
With that said, Wang Qingjue handed over a silver note with 10,000 taels written on it.
Luo Jinjia took a few glances before confirming that she was right, and looked at Wang Qingjue in confusion.
If he didn't know Wang Qingjue's true identity, Luo Jinjia might think he wanted to curry favor with Chu Weilen.
But she knew Wang Qingjue's identity, that he was a prince, and a prince with ideals and aspirations, so she knew that he couldn't do such a thing.
As such, the move is strange.
Ten thousand taels of silver.
Not to mention Zhenbei City, even in the capital, few people would give such a generous gift.
what does he want.
Luo Jinjia looked at Chu Weileng, trying to get an answer from Chu Weileng.
Chu Wei Leng was also surprised.
He had never heard Wang Qingjue say this at all.
Before he came, Wang Qingjue had indeed prepared some gifts. Although those gifts were a little expensive, they were not too outrageous.
He didn't know why Wang Qingjue suddenly took out 10,000 taels of silver bills.
Seeing Luo Jinjia looking over, Chu Wei Leng shook his head at her, saying that he didn't know anything about it.
Luo Jinjia pondered what Wang Qingjue said.
This money seems to be dedicated to her
Why do you say that
If it was a congratulatory gift, it should be for Chu Wei Leng.
It seems that it should be related to her.
"This gift is too precious, Young Master Wang should take it back." Luo Jianjia calmly said.
However, Wang Qingjue sat down on the chair unceremoniously and said with a smile, "This is not a courtesy, it's earned by my sister-in-law."
Luo Jianjia was even more surprised.
Although she guessed that these silver notes were related to her, she did not guess that she earned them.
Wang Qingjue ate a cold cucumber and stopped selling it, saying, "This is the money made by selling the kang technology."
"Huo Kang?" Luo Jianjia repeated in a low voice, his voice full of surprise.
As far as she knew, the heated kang was not only free, but the court also provided some money, so there was no possibility of making money.
Chu Wei Leng guessed something at this moment.
Recently, what Wang Qingjue has been doing in private seems to be related to Dong Jiguo.
Combined with what he just said, an idea appeared in his mind.
Chu Wei said coldly, "Dong Jiguo?"
Seeing that Chu Wei Leng guessed it, Wang Qingjue raised an eyebrow and said, "Brother Chu is really smart."
Next, Wang Qingjue elaborated on how he made money.
On that day, Wang Qingjue felt a little uncomfortable when he talked about the heated kang at Chu's house.
The imperial family of Dongjiguo clearly knew the technology of the heated kang, but they hid it and did not tell others.
Once they are popularized by the whole people, Dongji will know about it. Isn't this getting their technology for free
Why
Therefore, before the promotion of the heated kang technology at the border, Wang Qingjue sent some people to Dongji to popularize the heated kang technology among the nobles of the capital.
Of course, it is not free, and the fees are extremely high.
This thing has always been in the royal family, and even the nobles don't know it.
It's like a status symbol, so even if the fees are high, they're still willing to pay.
Half a month later, when the kang technology of the Dali Dynasty began to spread to Dongji Kingdom, the previous group of people came back with 20,000 taels of silver notes.
"My sister-in-law came up with this idea, and it should have been all given to my sister-in-law. It's just that my people have been working hard this time, so I'll be shameless, brother." Wang Qingjue said with a smile.
Said to be five or five points, but not counting the human and material resources consumed this time.
Where is the capital of Dongji Kingdom where ordinary people can hide, I am afraid that the loss is not small.
How could Luo Jianjia care about this, even if she didn't give her money, she would have no problem.
"I didn't come up with this kang technology at first, and the talented people around the prince have perfected it. I don't deserve this money."
"It's not right for my sister-in-law to say that. It should be yours, so you have to take it. If you don't take it, I will feel uneasy in the future, and I will be embarrassed to come to eat." Wang Qingjue said.
Wang Qingjue was the prince, and the whole country belonged to him in the future. He was not short of the money. Seeing that he pushed the money over again, Luo Jinjia accepted it.
"Young Master Wang is really smart." Luo Jianjia praised him sincerely.
Otherwise, how could he be the emperor? His thoughts were different from ordinary people.
He not only promoted the kang technology in his own country, but also made money from Dongjiguo.
After all, the cost of promoting the heated kang was all paid by Dongjiguo.
"It's less than one ten thousandth of my sister-in-law." Wang Qingjue said seriously.
After a while, Mr. Zhao came in.
A few people tacitly did not talk about this matter.
It's not that the Zhao family is unreliable, but that this matter is related to the matter between the two countries. It was really known by Dong Jiguo that this matter was done by Wang Qingjue, and I was afraid that he would have some trouble.
When eating, looking at the vegetables on the table, Wang Qingjue finally reacted.
"I've been wanting to ask since just now, where did the cucumbers come from, which are green and crisp. The feelings are not only about cucumbers, but also green vegetables, lettuce, celery... How come there are so many vegetables? Is there a conservatory at home?" Wang Qingjue asked.
There are not a few people who have greenhouses in the capital. However, most of them are used to grow flowers, and some people grow vegetables for winter eating.
Such as cucumbers, green vegetables and the like, are indispensable on the dinner table in winter.
Zhao shi smiled and said, "Yes, that's the yard next to it. Not only did we get it at home, but we also got a few acres of land in the field."
Wang Qingjue was even more surprised that he was so generous.
Even in the capital, at most a small place to grow vegetables is enough for a master of the house to eat.
A greenhouse will probably cost hundreds of taels, not including the maintenance on weekdays, and it will cost hundreds of taels in a winter.
If it is also done in the ground, it will cost thousands of taels.
The Chu family is not such a luxurious family, how could it be so
Moreover, the Chu family is afraid that they have sold all the things that the saint has rewarded to have so much money.
Although he thought so, Wang Qingjue didn't mention the money, but asked, "How could you think of building so many greenhouses? Growing so many vegetables?"
"I eat it myself, and I also use it in the spicy skewer shop." Zhao explained, "We plan to sell the ones in the field."
Sell
Wang Qingjue made a quick calculation in her heart, and said, "I guess it takes dozens of yuan to sell a pound to get the money back, right?"
The question is, it's so expensive, does anyone buy it
"Ah? Dozens of wen? You don't have to earn so much." Zhao Shi said.
If you don't sell it so expensive, how can you make money
Wang Qingjue wanted to ask, but because of her trust in Chu Weilen and Luo Jinjia, she did not ask.
"If the vegetables in the field can grow as expected, it is estimated that they will be able to return to their original cost." Luo Jianjia answered his questions.
"Three or five cents? Is it so cheap?" Wang Qingjue couldn't help raising her voice, "Is it all cabbage?"
Luo Jianjia shook his head: "No, there are also cucumbers, eggplants, celery, etc."
Looking at Luo Jinjia's calm and analytical appearance, for a moment, Wang Qingjue felt that she had made a mistake and calculated it again in her mind.
Although he didn't calculate very carefully, even if the price of Zhenbei City was not as high as that of the capital, three or five liters per pound was by no means enough.
After all, the problem lies in the conservatory.
"How did the sister-in-law get the greenhouse and how much did it cost?"
Luo Jianjia couldn't say a word or two about the conservatory, so he said, "Conservatory is more complicated to do. Young Master Wang can check it out later. In terms of price, it cost about fifty taels in total."
Wang Qingjue was startled.
What kind of conservatory can cost so little.
Can you grow vegetables
No, of course, looking at the dishes in front of him, Wang Qingjue felt stupid.
"It's just that you have to spend hundreds of articles every day to maintain it, which is a bit expensive." Zhao shi added on the side.
Is it worth a few hundred dollars
Also too cheap.
Wang Qingjue felt that there was no answer he wanted to know from the Chu family, so he decided to go and see for himself after dinner.
Because he was too curious about vegetables, Wang Qingjue ate the meal quickly.
After dinner, Luo Jianjia and Chu Weilen took Wang Qingjue to see the conservatory.
Luo Jinjia's conservatory was completely different from what Wang Qingjue imagined.
The conservatories of the big families in the capital look very high-end and atmospheric. As soon as you enter, you will know that the conservatories are piled up with money.
The conservatory of Chu's house, whether viewed from the outside or inside, is relatively ordinary, but it is very practical.
It has everything you need and saves money.
When the heated kang and cellar are used, the most expensive is the layer of cloth and oil above.
Although it is not as exquisite as the capital, it can always grow vegetables.
When he learned that Luo Jianjia came up with this method again, his heart was no longer fluctuating.
He thought that he would not be surprised no matter how amazing this strange woman came up with.
Wang Qingjue admired Luo Jianjia and gave her a thumbs up.
Luo Jianjia said, "This is not what I came up with, I have read many books about conservatories from dynasties and dynasties, I have asked many craftsmen and old farmers, and I have also visited some wealthy families to see how conservatories are made. It was finally researched together with the craftsmen.”
However, Wang Qingjue still felt that it was all up to Luo Jianjia, and she only thought she was being modest.
After all, there are book craftsmen and old farmers, why can't others do it
Luo Jinjia thought of a way to make money from Wang Qingjue.
"Wang Gongzi thinks that the vegetables can be shipped to Dongjiguo to sell? Can they make money?"
Wang Qingjue raised her eyebrows, took it into consideration, shook the fan in her hand, and said, "It's definitely no problem!"
The moment the two looked at each other, they both saw the bright silver in each other's eyes.
