Chapter 24 Too Fast to Stop



Okay, sir/madam...

"Sir, here is your change of twenty taels. The pastries have been delivered to the carriage."

Shopkeeper, I'd like to order pastries for two days.

"You can do as much as you can tomorrow and the day after, I'll take care of it all."

I won't accept those twenty taels; I'll keep them as a deposit for tomorrow.

The pastry shop was both shocked and delighted to hear that they needed to order pastries for two days.

"Sir, are you sure you want to order pastries for two days?"

Well, isn't there a twenty-tael deposit there? How could I possibly refuse it?

Go ahead and make your pastries with peace of mind. I'll take as many as you make, but the quality of your pastries must be guaranteed.

"If you can guarantee the quality and quantity, then I'll come to pick up the goods at the same time tomorrow."

Absolutely, absolutely, there will be no quality issues. If there are any problems, I will compensate you three times the amount.

"That's good. See you tomorrow."

Please take care, sir/madam...

No need to see me off...

In this way, she bought everything she could need—food, drink, and even sanitation supplies—from every shop in Kyoto, ordering enough for two days' worth of goods to pick up at set times.

Even after buying so much, Shen Yingying still felt it wasn't enough, and sighed inwardly: There's no way around it, the desert is poor, I have to buy it!

In just one day, she spent more than 200,000 taels of silver.

If she hadn't gone through the zero-yuan purchase, she really wouldn't have had the confidence to do this.

After going around the whole circle, Shen Yingying was quite tired, mainly because she had to talk to each shop owner.

Shen Yingying shouted with satisfaction: Let's go home...

He then strolled leisurely back to the Prince's Palace.

"Your Highness, where have you been again? I've been looking for you for so long."

Looking at the resentful look in the maid Xiao Tao's eyes, Shen Yingying thought to herself: The little girl is so cute.

Oh, I need to take care of some business outside the residence.

"Your Highness, could you please let me know when you leave the palace? I've been looking for you for so long."

Try your best...

"princess……"

Yes, yes, yes... definitely, definitely...

Shen Yingying has always been someone who responds better to gentle persuasion than force, and Xiao Tao's address of "Your Highness" made her heart flutter.

"Xiao Tao, go ask the housekeeper what we're having for lunch. I went out and brought back a few roast chickens."

Tell the housekeeper to take it down and distribute it to these people, let them eat it.

When Xiao Tao heard that the princess had bought roast chicken and was going to share it with the servants instead of eating it herself, she was quite touched.

"Your Highness, please keep one for yourself."

I stayed...

Xiaotao said: Okay, I couldn't stop myself from talking too fast...

Xiao Tao went to call the manager.

"Your Highness, did you call me?"

Hmm, has the amount of silver from the Prince's mansion been settled?

"We've settled things here, but the second wife's side is a bit troublesome."

I'll do the math with you all this afternoon. Butler, I went out of the manor to run some errands and bought a few roast chickens. You can take them and share them with these people.

"It is my great honor that Your Highness has thought of us servants."

Okay, stop nitpicking, just take it and distribute it.

"Xiao Tao, you should go with the housekeeper too."

Your Highness, I still need to serve you.

“I have arms and legs, I don’t need to be waited on. You go down and eat with them.”

This servant thanks Your Highness...

Go...

After the maid Xiao Tao left, Shen Yingying closed the door and kicked off her boots with a thud.

He kicked off with both legs, squatted on the chair, and began to tear apart the roast chicken.

Just kidding, it's annoying to have someone staring at me while I'm eating; it slows down how fast I can tear apart a chicken leg.

After a frantic feast, Shen Yingying threw down the last chicken bone and let out a satisfied burp.

belch……

I've made it...

This roast chicken tastes really good. The whole chicken is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, with a perfect balance of saltiness and savory flavor. I'll have to order a few more tomorrow.
