Seeing that Mu Yunyao didn't take any offense, the entire party finally relaxed, "Yes, Master. Are you not disrespectful?"
"Why should we punish him? I wish I could have a few more of these people." Mu Yunyao had a face full of smiles."Jinlan, in a while, go and wrap up five hundred taels of silver in a red envelope and have six taels of silver to send over to that guy." If there was a penalty, then there would be a reward for meritorious service. It shouldn't make people feel disheartened.
"Yes, miss."
After the six taels left, Mu Yunyao busied herself with the embroidery, asking Jin Lan to count the banknotes.
"Young Miss, a total of 21, 200 silver."
Mu Yunyao nodded."Take it and send it over to mother. If she asks about the origin of the silver notes, tell her that it's Manager Qin's profits from the Unenviable Pavilion."
"Yes, miss."
When Jin Lan left, Mu Yunyao chuckled. Just the difference in price was more than 20, 000 taels of silver. It seemed that this time, Steward Qin had prepared quite a lot of ginger tea.
On this day, Mu Yunyao had just gotten up when she felt the weather become especially cold. When Jin Lan walked in, her expression was excited."Miss, it's snowing outside. Although it's only a thin layer, it's still particularly pretty."
Mu Yunyao couldn't help but be stunned."If you count it all up, then today is exactly Little Snow, and she also agreed to this festivity." "Yes, this servant met Si Qin just now. I heard that madam was preparing to wrap the powdered dumplings. She said that only by eating the powdered dumplings would the person not freeze to death. This servant is so lucky this time." The Madam had never treated servants like outsiders. Every time she prepared anything delicious, she would ask someone to save some for them.
This made their hearts especially moved. A warm smile appeared on Mu Yunyao's face."Coincidentally, I haven't eaten powdered dumplings in a long time. I'm very hungry. In a while, go tell mother that I want to eat lotus root meat." As far as mother was concerned, she was not afraid of the trouble of the food you wanted to eat, but was afraid that if she cooked, you wouldn't like to eat it, so she asked for it ...
Without hesitation.
"Yes, miss."
Mu Yunyao's mood was good, even her embroidery speed had increased by a lot.
At this time, in the embroidery garden next door, the guests that came to taste the tea were also amazed. Originally, the scenery in the embroidery garden was already beautiful enough, but now, every place that was used to serve tea had drapes or screens set up.
According to the different scenes, the patterns on the curtains and screens were completely different. They echoed with the scenery everywhere, and were both exquisite and flawless. At this time, it just so happened that the snow was drifting about, adding a sense of elegance, causing one to be intoxicated in it and lose themselves in it.
Once the news spread, it attracted many people to come to the Embroidery Garden to enjoy the scenery. The scenery here in winter was desolate, and many people originally did not have many places to go. Now, with the beautiful Embroidery Garden and the plaque gifted by the emperor, it became the first choice for many people to amuse themselves. Steward Qin counted the silver coins in his hand as his admiration for Mu Yunyao increased. Previously, he was worried that the number of guests would decrease during the winter, but now it seemed that instead of the number of guests decreased, they increased instead. This was even more popular than summer.
His pen of silver had made him make up his mind. He would wrap a large red envelope and send it over to Lady Mu for the new year.
Mu Yunyao saw the same person. That person was tall and strong, with a simple and honest smile on his face. After saluting, he had a bashful smile on his face.
"No need to be so polite, please take a seat." Mu Yunyao sized up everyone. The smile on his face was genuine, and even his eyes revealed a sense of honesty. It was impossible to tell if he was faking it or not. This kind of person would either take acting to the bone, or was truly simple and honest.
"Thank you, Miss." Everyone sat awkwardly on their chairs. The tall one only sat on one side of the chair, making him look slightly comical.
"I'm a bit curious, why would you be so interested in buying more food to store?" Hearing the question, everyone hurriedly stood up."Miss, I heard that you bought some food and sent it to the west of Guangdong, so I thought you might send another batch. If the price increases after a period of time, you will have to spend a lot of silver taels to buy more.
"Since you have saved up money and time, even if you don't want the food in the end, you can still put some in. Wait until the price rises before you sell it." Your consideration is quite thoughtful." No wonder during that time, he had asked for several taels of silver, so it was possible that he had done the deed. Mu Yunyao carefully sized up the names and not a single flaw could be seen in his expression or words, causing others to feel a sense of sincerity and feel as if their hearts were being pressed, "This ..."
What are your plans for the future? "
Qi Ming quickly nodded: "I will follow you, Miss, to do whatever you want me to do." Mu Yunyao couldn't help but smile. After thinking carefully for a moment, she said, "I had an idea earlier, but I lack people to do business, so I haven't really carried it out. Now that I have you, I want to open a treasure shop that specializes in selling jewelry and rouge powder, and let you do it.
"How about the cabinet?"
"Miss told me to be the manager, so I went to be the owner." All of them nodded their heads swiftly without any hesitation.
"Then have you thought about what to do in order to create the reputation of the Washing Treasure Pavilion so that it can become a golden signboard like the Nebula Pavilion?"
After frowning for a moment, they scratched their heads, "This servant has an idea, but I think it's a little outrageous."
"Tell me about it." The smile on Mu Yunyao's face deepened. She already had an idea in such a short amount of time?
"The Nebula Market built by the young miss is already very famous. If you want the Flowing Light Treasure Pavilion to be like Nebula Market, then you have no choice but to climb up it." Everyone carefully looked at Mu Yunyao's expression. Seeing that she wasn't angry, they heaved a heavy sigh of relief.
Mu Yunyao's smile grew wider and wider."Tell me in detail, how do I climb up the Nebula Market?" The reason why this servant heard so many people envious of the nebula market was because the neon cloud market had the personal reputation of being bestowed by the emperor, so he didn't dare to stand out in public and act against them. If this Yi Baoxuan dared to step forward, he would definitely get the secret support of many people.
"In the future, when the neon market is in full swing, the Washing Treasure Pavilion will also bloom along with the flowers." Mu Yunyao laughed, her eyes full of splendor, "Alright, since that's the case, then go and do it. How much silver do you need and pay him six taels directly? I'll get him to give it to you." 'Unexpectedly, the idea of joining hands with her just like that. I had originally wanted to wait for the opening of the Nebula Market before getting distracted again ... '
Now that she had his help, there was no need to wait any longer. With this, she would be even closer to her goal.
This guy came at the perfect time! Everyone nodded."Yes, Miss."
