In the silence and darkness, Yu Zheng waited for a long time but did not hear Jiang Shu's response.
He knew that she was not asleep, so he continued to ask: "Shu'er, do you want to taste what it tastes like?"
Jiang Shu: "..."
She doesn't want to!
Yu Zheng took the silence as a silent response, gently pinched her chin with his fingers, covered her lips and kissed her.
Yu Zheng's mouth was filled with the fragrant milky taste, with a hint of sweetness. Although Jiang Shu tried her best to resist, the taste still reached the tip of her tongue.
When Jiang Shu thought that the smell was her milk, her heart skipped a beat, and she was so embarrassed that she wished she could disappear into thin air.
Fortunately, Yu Zheng didn't bother much. After a light kiss, he left her lips and asked her against the tip of her nose: "Do you like it?"
Jiang Shu pretended to be dead and ignored.
Yu Zheng thought to himself: "I like it very much."
Jiang Shu heard a pleasant chuckle escape from his throat.
She really...has no face to see anyone.
Jiang Shu turned around and faced Yu Zheng with his back.
Yu Zheng was not upset and just hugged her and fell asleep again.
The next day at breakfast, after Jiang Shu finished drinking the milk soup, Yu Zheng made a steamed bun for her.
Jiang Shu was stuttering. Seeing that Yu Zheng didn't eat much, he asked, "Why don't you eat?"
Yu Zheng said: "I'm not hungry."
"Why aren't you hungry..." Jiang Shu was halfway through his words when he caught a glimpse of Yu Zheng's smiling face and suddenly thought of something and stopped talking.
She glared at Yu Zheng, and shyly gave him a pastry pie: "Eat."
Yu Zheng raised his eyebrows and ate the pie obediently.
Today, Yu Zheng was resting and wanted to accompany Jiang Shu to patrol the shop, but Jiang Shu firmly refused.
"When you stop in the shop, the shopkeepers and waiters are all frightened. How can you receive customers to report the situation? How can customers relax and choose to buy goods?"
Not to mention the waiters and customers, it was difficult for her to calm down and do things in front of Yu Zheng, especially after what happened last night.
"Am I a Shura beast? So unpopular?" Yu Zheng's dark eyes darkened, slightly displeased.
Jiang Shu hurriedly said: "No, no, your status is too noble, your aura is too strong, and your appearance is too handsome. Don't talk about them, even if I see you, I don't care about anything else."
Yu Zheng heard this very pleasantly, and the corners of his lips raised slightly as he said, "Then you come back early."
Jiang Shu nodded in agreement and hurriedly left the house. Afraid of being a step too late, Yu Zheng followed him.
After stepping out of the house and arriving at the shop, Jiang Shu gathered his thoughts and focused on business.
After nearly a year, Jiang Shu spent a lot of energy to find out the situation of each store and understand it clearly.
After inspecting all the shops, Jiang Shu breathed a sigh of relief and went to the teahouse with his father to rest and discuss business matters.
After the waiter served tea and left, Jiang's father said: "There have been constant natural disasters this year, and grain production has been greatly reduced. There is not much left in the major grain stores, and some have even been sold out. Only Jiang Ji has a large stockpile of grain, and business is not good." ”
The other shops were jealous, but they could only watch Jiang Ji making money.
This time, Jiang Ji made the right bet.
Jiang Shu pursed his lips and said: "My original intention of hoarding food is not entirely for profit. I also want to ensure that everyone in Beijing has food to eat and will not go hungry."
As for places other than Shangjing, she was beyond her reach and was powerless.
Jiang's father nodded and said: "I understand you, you are not a person who is bent on profit at all costs. Don't worry, Jiang Ji's grain store has not increased a penny, and all it makes is conscience money."
Jiang Shu let out a long sigh and felt a little regretful when he saw from the open window that the popular shop on the opposite street was closed but not open.
"That's the wine shop." Jiang's father took two sips of tea, put down the teacup and said, "Due to the prohibition on alcohol, all the wine shops in Shangjing were closed. Some businesses specializing in wine suffered heavy losses. Fortunately, Jiang Ji did not sell wine in the name of wine. Mainly, it has little impact.”
Jiang Shu remembered that he passed by the shop yesterday and smelled the fragrance. Because it had not been in business for a long time, the door plaque was covered with dust.
Having been the mistress of the Marquis's Mansion in Jing'an for six years, no one knows the situation of the Marquis's Mansion better than Jiang Shu. Without the support of Wen Xiang Zui, life in the Jingan Marquis Mansion would probably not be easy.
The amount of money Shen Changze owed her was even further out.
"What are you thinking about?" Seeing Jiang Shu stunned, Jiang's father asked.
Jiang Shu came back to his senses, and said with a twinkling apricot eyes: "It's nothing." He lowered his eyes and saw that Jiang's father's tea bowl was empty. Jiang Shu picked up the teapot and poured tea for Jiang's father, and said slowly: "Dazhao people love drinking. Now that there is no wine to drink, It must be very uncomfortable.”
Especially at major banquets, although tea can be used instead of wine to toast guests, it will be difficult to swallow after drinking too much.
Last month at the royal palace's full-moon banquet, Jiang Shu entertained guests and drank tea for a day, and had a deep understanding of it.
Father Jiang sighed: "What can we do?"
As one of the top five shops in Shangjing, Jiangji does not focus on wine, but it also has many wineries. As soon as Prohibition came out, the wine that had been brewed was not allowed to be sold, and it was all backlogged.
Fortunately, wine will become mellower as it ages and will not go bad. It can be sold again after the prohibition on alcohol is lifted.
It's just that you can't drink the wine in a warehouse full of wine, you can only smell it, which is really a bit annoying.
Jiang Shu thought about it and said, "I see vendors everywhere on the street selling fruits such as ringo and pears. I think there will be a bumper harvest of fruits this year."
When Jiang's father heard this, he knew that Jiang Shu had a new plan, and immediately asked, "What are your ideas?"
Jiang Shu smiled mysteriously and said: "We can make fruit wine and sell it. Although it is not as popular as wine, it is better than tea during banquets."
Originally, major wineries also sold fruit wine, but there were two types of fruit wine. One was made by fermenting the fruit, and the other was made by soaking it in wine.
People who like to drink mostly prefer pure wine or soaked wine. Fruit wine made from the first fermentation of the fruit and fruit drinks made by pressing are mostly consumed by women and children who are too drunk.
However, fruit drinks cannot be stored well and have a small audience, so few people sell them.
But that was before. Now that there is no alcohol, these two things can take over.
"But fruit wine also has the word "wine", can the court allow it to be sold?" Jiang's father frowned, with a worried look on his face.
Business channels are well connected. Jiang's father knows many wine shops or owners who specialize in wine. They have also thought about selling fruit wine, but they are not prepared firstly. Secondly, they inquired from above and did not get a clear answer, so they did not dare to start easily.
Although businessmen seek profit, they must also have a plan.
Jiang Shu took a sip of tea and said, "As long as it benefits the people, does not violate the laws of the imperial court, and can also increase revenue for the national treasury, I think all the officials will definitely agree."
After entering the royal family and following Yu Zheng's ears and eyes for a long time, Jiang Shu understood that major affairs of the country were not decided by the emperor alone, but required the consent of the civil and military officials of the dynasty.
The more Father Jiang listened, the more confused he became.
Jiang Shu explained a few words in a low voice. Jiang's father suddenly understood and looked at Jiang Shu with eyes full of admiration.
His daughter was indeed a natural businessman and cared about all the people in the world, which impressed him.
Jiang Shu looked a little embarrassed and coughed and said: "This matter needs to be investigated thoroughly before making any plans."
Jiang's father said: "I will order people to visit everywhere when I get back. The results will be available in three days at most."
If this is feasible, it will really be a good thing for the country and the people.
Of course, Jiang Ji can also have an extra income and earn more money.
The father and daughter agreed that when it was almost noon, Jiang Shu got up and returned home.
There was no sun today, and the sky was a little gloomy. When Jiang Shu returned to the main courtyard, he saw Yu Zheng holding the crying Yu Ziyou, wandering around in the courtyard and patting her.
Seeing Jiang Shu come back, Yu Zheng frowned and frowned, looking like a resentful husband.
