Chapter 155:

It's hard to say how well the thirty craftsmen have learned, and the experience and experience of the dozen or so stewards will all be submitted the next afternoon.
Zhu Yuan had a terrible headache when she saw it.
Irrespective, pressure, kinetic energy, air pressure... all messed up.
This is still understood by literate stewards, but what about illiterate craftsmen?
Yes, I was afraid that it was for nothing yesterday.
No, it is a bit rewarding.
She probably knows why. Without a mathematical foundation, what area, unit, ratio... is probably hard to understand.
Education is not easy, Zhu Yuan sighed.
It seems that the kinetic energy of steam cannot be figured out in the short term.
For research and development, we must first improve the theoretical foundation of the craftsman team.
It seems I will be busy next...
Before she gets busy, Xie Zheng has something to do, so she has to return to Beijing.
The two men's short inspection tour should also end.
Zhu Yuan cleaned up and followed Xie Zheng back to the Su Palace.
Next is each busy.
Of course, Zhuyuan doesn't know what Xie Zheng is up to, she just talks about herself. This time I went to Zhuangzi. She found many problems and business opportunities...
Rubber-producing broad-leaved forest trees should be cultivated artificially, and the amount of rubber should be improved; a rubber factory should be established, and wheels should be made; a paper sales party should be organized, and charcoal making methods should be presented as gifts; a porcelain factory should be opened...
Then, she decided to set up a staff college in Zhuangzi, starting with the most basic mathematics teaching.
Thousands of things were suppressed, plus the shop in her hand, she was even busier than Xie Zheng.
Xie Zheng didn't know what he said to Emperor Chengjia. He hasn't gone to the various ministries to experience him. He is busy working in the front yard every day. When the time comes, he can return to Shensitang for meals.
In the house, the two masters, Xie Zheng came back to eat, and Zhu Yuan felt that it was easy.
Although a cook was arranged in the palace, it was said that he had been sent back, and Zhu Yuan had changed Xie Zheng's own person before entering the house.
Zhu Yuan went to Zhuangzi after only eating for two days after entering the mansion. After returning, she was busy arranging various affairs on Zhuangzi's side, so she couldn't take care of the mansion.
Everything depends on the kitchen and the steward. She eats whatever is in the kitchen.
After eating like this for a few days, she felt uncomfortable.
Simply because Xie Zheng was the biggest in this mansion, she put aside the things she had on hand for the time being, and decided to smooth things out in the kitchen first.
Speaking of this, it is natural to talk about the cost of food and clothing in the house.
Although there are not many masters, there are many people under the palace, and they are all necessary posts that cannot be abolished. In addition, there are palace guards.
There are hundreds of people up and down, and eating is a big expense every day.
Where do so many rice and meat dishes come from?
Most are supplied by Zhuangzi.
Where is Zhuangzi?
Concubine Shu gave it.
Zhu Yuan later found out that the hundred hectares of farmland of Zhuangzi was bought by Concubine Shu who entrusted the Qin family to Shijia in the north of the capital in recent years.
Only before the age of 10 years did he borrow Xie Liu's hand and transfer it to Xie Zheng.
Zhu Yuan didn't know what Xie Zheng thought when she received it. She only knew that when Xie Zheng gave her the account book, her expression seemed a little complicated.
He also said at the time: "Originally planning to find you a fulcrum to buy a Zhuangzi, but it saves you money."
He does not mean that.
With a word from Xie Zheng, Zhu Yuan was very sad.
Xie Zheng's words only show that he never thought that Concubine Shu would give him a farmland Zhuangzi.
When the prince beside him enters the various ministries, his mother concubine and clan will receive all kinds of support. There is no shortage of money people, and Zhuangzi made arrangements early.
And Xie Zheng worked hard by himself.
As for the Zhuangzi they had just visited, it was only a few hectares away, but it has been expanding gradually over the past few years and it has become bigger.
This shows how tight Xie Zheng was.
She seemed to be able to see the thin and tall boy many years ago, but at the age of fourteen, she had to travel thousands of miles and go straight to the danger, just to try the cement embankment that she didn't know how sure...
At the age of fourteen, she would be a junior high school student.
Regardless of whether Xie Zheng was born again or not, his current wealth and power were really killed by himself.
In such a situation, he was still willing to take the risk to give her a share...
Zhu Yuan sighed secretly.
Although Xie Zheng is a dog, he has responsibilities and responsibilities.
Only at this point, she will give her trust.
Of course, getting married is another matter.
If you regard him as a partner, you can still live comfortably.
I just hope that this kind of life can pass longer...
Closer to home.
According to the system, the prince entrusted the princes with 10,000 stones, 20,000 coins, 40 pieces of brocade, 300 pieces of silk, 100 pieces of leno, 500 pieces of silk, 1,000 pieces of winter and summer cloth, 2,000 pieces of cotton, Two hundred cites of salt, a thousand catties of flowers. Horses feed on grass, with fifty horses per month. The satin horses were made by craftsmen and paid for by the palace. (lead)
In other words, except for rice and cloth, everything else is taken care of by the palace itself.
The rice grains are given once a year. If it is new rice, it is okay, if it is the unloved prince, it is not impossible to get some old rice grains from the moth.
Wan Shi listened a lot, but absolutely couldn't stand hundreds of people eating for a year.
This year's Lulu has come down, and Shijia's rice grains from the hundred hectares of fertile fields have also been collected last year.
According to the rules of the noble family, most of the lu rice issued by the imperial court will be sold in grain shops, and only the rice produced by Zhuangzi or go to other prefectures to buy new rice.
Zhu Yuan didn't sell it, so he stocked up. For this reason, a few rooms were specially decorated, all of which were painted with lime to prevent insects and moisture.
Dayan is an agricultural country. If it encounters natural and man-made disasters, it is really impossible to buy it.
Zhu Yuan is not at ease about this.
Therefore, she decided to stock up the rice every year when it was recovered, and then clear it out in the next year, and replace it with new rice. On weekdays, she would eat the new rice collected from the village. After eating, she could only go out to buy.
The family must have enough rice to support more than half a year.
You have to buy rice, as are vegetables, fruits, and meat.
It's nothing more than melons and fruits, meat, every month Shijia will send a batch of poultry, pigs and eggs, this is not lacking.
Vegetables are the focus.
At this time, there are no greenhouse vegetables, except for radish and cabbage, only pickles and sauerkraut can be served.
After Zhuyuan came back from Zhuangzi, it was not radish stew, cabbage stew, or sauerkraut stew every day. He was impatient to see the pot.
After having breakfast that day, and sending Xie Zheng out of the courtyard, Zhu Yuan finished dealing with the more urgent matters in the shop, and when it was late, he led the people straight to the kitchen.
First check the kitchen hygiene.
The kitchen was built according to her requirements, and the stove and countertops were all covered with hard light-colored rocks, which could be seen at a glance if they were a little dirty.
All the kitchen utensils are neatly arranged on special shelves, and the smaller shelves next to them contain some commonly used seasonings, pots and bowls.
When Zhu Yuan came over, the kitchen was choosing and washing vegetables, and the pot was already simmering in soup.
Seeing her coming, the chef was very nervous.
Zhu Yuan didn’t say much, and made a tour first, and made sure that all the dishes and chopsticks to be used were placed on the drained stone dish rack according to the rules, the countertop and stove had no obvious deposits, and the kitchen utensils were clean ...
She breathed a sigh of relief, Wen Sheng praised everyone in the kitchen, and then said: "Lao Zhang, what are you good at?"
The chef's surname is Zhang, which is exactly the chef Xie Zheng has used in recent years.
Hearing the question, he cautiously said: "Thank the princess, the slave is good at northern cuisine."
No wonder the stew is always served. Zhu Yuan asked again: "I remember there were four cooks, except you, what are the other three good at?" That's right, these four cooks are all serving her and Xie Zheng.
"Report to the princess, a southern dish, a northwest dish, and a white case."
It's too general. Zhu Yuan frowned and asked directly: "That cake, buns, noodles, dumplings, wontons, etc., shouldn't it matter?"
Lao Zhang nodded: "Yes. It's just..." These are all dishes that are not on the table.
"Someone will do it." Zhu Yuan laughed. "The lunch will be done according to what I said. From now on, I will ask someone to send you a menu every five days. You can do it according to the above list. For guests or other accidents, I will let people inform you in advance."
Lao Zhang hesitated.
"Is it impossible to do it?" Zhu Yuan smiled.
Lao Zhang immediately remembered the palace man who had been sent back to the palace half a month ago, and said, "The slave must go all out."
Zhu Yuan nodded in satisfaction: "I will let someone get the ingredients you need. If you have something that you can't do, you will make someone tell me."
"Yes."
Zhu Yuan decided on a few dishes based on the materials available in the kitchen, and made sure that Lao Zhang would make them before leaving the kitchen and going to the large yard in the northwest that she photographed.
The size of the garden is second only to the courtyard of Mianyun Pavilion.
In the morning, she had instructed Sister Si Yuan in advance to call more than a dozen craftsmen over.
Therefore, when she arrived, Madam Si Yuan and the craftsmen were already waiting here.
Zhu Yuan was also unambiguous, and directly instructed them: "Remove all the flowers and trees in this yard, and remove all the floor tiles. Oh, also fill this small pond."
Everyone:......? ? ?
The princess is going to... tear down the courtyard?
...
At that time, Xie Zheng was discussing matters with his staff in the study.
An Fu, who was guarding the door, yawned, and when he swept his eyes, he saw a maid poking her head outside the yard.
He immediately squinted his eyes, glanced inside the study, and whispered to the little next to him.
The little nodded and ran to the maid.
The two murmured a few words, and the little turned back and reported to Anfu in this way.
An Fu was speechless: "Who really did that?"
The little nodded.
"Okay, I know." An Fu said, not paying attention to the expectant maid outside, half-closed her eyelids, and started to doze with her sleeves.
When Xie Zheng finished a busy round and was about to return to Shensitang for a meal, Anfu, who seemed calm, immediately reported the princess's move in the morning.
Xie Zheng was also a little surprised: "The yard second only to the princess's courtyard?"
An Fu nodded repeatedly.
"What does she want to toss about?" Xie Zheng said to himself, after he finished, "Let her go, don't dismantle Shen Si Tang."
An Fu immediately wiped his sweat. Apart from the emperor, who would dare to demolish the yard of the prince?
It seems that the status of the princess empress is still secure for the time being.
Xie Zheng didn't take this to heart, and walked slowly to Shensitang.
Zhu Yuan was already waiting for him in the dining room where the two of them used to eat. Seeing him entering the door, she greeted him cheerfully: "I'm back~~"
Xie Zheng's expression instantly softened: "Well, have you waited a long time?" It was a bit late today.
"Fortunately, it is the porridge I drank this morning. I digested quickly and I was hungry." After Zhu Yuan finished speaking, she turned to tell Gu Yu, "Hurry up and let someone pass the meal."
"Yes." Gu Yu took the order.
Zhu Yuan turned back and took Xie Zheng to the side.
Warm water is already there.
When he arrived, Zhu Yuan helped Xie Zheng roll up his sleeves, and whispered: "I have been to the kitchen today. I will order the menu in the future. If you have anything you want to eat, tell me."
"Okay." Xie Zheng nodded in response without looking away from her.
Zhu Yuan didn't pay attention. After rolling up his sleeves, he urged him: "Hurry up and wash your hands."
"Yeah." Xie Zheng complied with kindness and scrubbed his ink-stained hands.
The guard at the door watched happily.
Xie Zheng had just washed, and Zhu Yuan, who had already taken the veil, threw it to him immediately. He laughed and took the veil and wiped his hands: "Why do you need you to wait on me and let someone come."
Zhu Yuan squinted at him and said half-truth, "I don't like too many people in the house."
"Then I can do it myself."
Zhu Yuan said twice: "Pretend, I see you pretend. If you have the ability, don't turn around..." Cough cough.
On the second day of the wedding, Xie Zheng was standing at the water basin and looking at her, looking like a mentally handicapped child.
This person had clearly been in the barracks and had been tumbling around. He couldn't wash his hands, he clearly wanted to tease her.
At that time, she simply regarded him as a mentally retarded child and laughed while serving. Who knew that this guy was addicted. Every day she entered the house and began to pretend to be retarded, wash her hands, change clothes, and even go to the toilet and let her follow him. The clothes are laid out.
If she doesn't cooperate, the dog man will not say anything at the time, and will retaliate back that night. I especially like to stop at that critical time, forcing her to cry for mercy, and sign the rules of losing power and humiliating the country.
After coming down a few times, she knew that this girl was a dog, and she couldn't provoke her.
No way, she can only serve him as a mentally retarded child.
Why is she hypocritical again today, she doesn't need her to serve?
Xie Zheng heard the irritation in her words, and smiled softly: "Didn't you say that a little play is needed between husband and wife to increase the fun? For the husband, I just follow the wife's opinion."
Dog man! !
Zhu Yuan rolled her eyes, just as Gu Yu brought people to pass the meal, she immediately said: "Eating and eating, starving to death!" Then she went to the table.
Xie Zheng smiled at the corner of his mouth, followed slowly, glanced at the table, and asked casually: "What are you eating today"
The voice stopped abruptly.
Xie Zheng curled his eyebrows and stared at the things Gu Yu laid out one by one.
Three plates of white raw steamed dumplings, two bowls of thick black rice porridge, a small basket of sauce cakes, a few bowls of small sauce, and a few plates of cold dishes were gone.
The serving maid said tremblingly: "I'll give you the prince and your mother, lunch is ready."
Even Gu Yu was nervous and afraid to look up.
Zhu Yuanhun didn't care, and said as usual: "Go on, there is no need to wait here." Then he greeted Xie Zheng, "Sit, why stand?"
Xie Zheng returned to his senses and looked at her helplessly: "Dare to ask the princess, where did you do something wrong again?"
Zhu Yuan was at a loss: "Huh?" This ya usually does a lot of wicked things. But, why did you suddenly come here?
"No." Xie Zheng changed his words instantly, "it seems that the shop's business is not working."
Zhu Yuan:? ? ?
Is Goudan hungry and stupid? How could their shop fail?
Xie Zheng said slowly: "On the front foot, you dismantled our yard to grow vegetables. On the back foot, our dining table is gone even the main dishes... It shows that our family is really poor."
Zhu Yuan blinked and chuckled.
Okay, the misunderstanding has spread.
