Chapter 494 The Retired Emperor is Attacked Again
"Xiao Shandao, go and get a few buckets of milk."
Wei Shuyu thought for a moment.
We still need to earn money.
Earning money for himself would lead to impeachment and competing with the people for profit, which Lao Wei would not agree to.
but……
Why not just put it under Wu Qiqi's name?
Wu Qiqi is not an official, so there's nothing wrong with her making money.
And Lao Wei...
Will he reprimand Qiqi?
"Brother, this milk doesn't taste good at all, what do you want it for?"
afternoon.
Qin Shandao then brought over several buckets of milk.
Most of them came from the cowshed pit of Cheng Yaojin's family.
I have to say...
Old Cheng's family has so many cows!
Cheng Yaojin would intercept a batch of cattle that were sent as tribute from foreign countries.
"Wouldn't it be sweeter if you added some sugar?" Wei Shuyu replied casually.
Holy crap.
Qin Shandao's eyes widened immediately.
Is it even possible to do that?
Wei Shuyu didn't say much either.
I picked up a wooden stick and started stirring...
"Little Jiji, it's yours now." Wei Shuyu handed the wooden stick to Cui Shenji.
"oh oh."
"Big pot, what are you doing now?"
Choi Shin-ki asked in confusion.
"Make butter!"
Wei Shuyu replied, "You can get it by stirring until you get a yellow substance."
Making butter is very simple; you can just mix it with milk.
“Big pot, I have butter at home,” Choi Shin-ki replied.
Yeah?
Wei Shuyu was stunned.
It seems that butter was available in the Tang Dynasty.
"Just do what I tell you to do, stop talking nonsense." Wei Shuyu couldn't save face and immediately scolded him.
"..."
The big pot is bullying people.
Choi Shin-ki held the wooden stick and stirred mechanically.
"Xiao Ai'ai, go and boil this bucket of milk."
"Simmer it until it becomes thick."
"Remember to stir constantly while cooking, so it doesn't burn..."
The boiled milk will become thick and solidify into a block after being air-dried for a day.
Then it is ground into powder, and that becomes milk powder.
the next day.
With butter and milk powder, there are many more things you can make.
The first milk candy: simply cook butter, sugar, a little salt, and milk powder until it becomes thick.
Then cut it into pieces and air dry.
With milk and sugar, it won't taste bad!
Wow...it's so sweet.
When Wei Shuyu finished making the milk candy, Qin Shandao's eyes squinted with sweetness.
Compared to white sugar, milk candy is more popular with children.
*Smack*
Wei Shuyu smacked him on the head with his other hand.
"Eat less, you're getting cavities!"
Wei Shuyu said speechlessly, "Don't end up like Little Jiji, with a lisp when you speak."
"Big brother..."
Fang Yi'ai asked shamelessly, "Are we going to sell this?"
"Um."
Wei Shuyu smiled and asked, "What do you think?"
"Guaranteed to make money!"
Fang Yi'ai is full of confidence!
People who know how to spend money generally know what can make money.
Do you know anything else that can fetch a high price?
Fang Yi'ai was willing to spend a lot of money to buy this milk candy.
"good!"
For the second cream: egg whites, granulated sugar, and milk powder are all you need.
Basically, it's just a way to pass the time...
Whip until the cream doesn't drip when the bowl is turned upside down.
Of course, there are other ways.
However, this recipe is the easiest.
"Big pot, what can this be used for?" Choi Shin-ki dipped his finger in and tasted it.
It's sweet, as sweet as it is.
But it's a bit too sweet.
"Making popsicles..."
Wei Shuyu smiled and said, "Aren't you worried that the Ice Pavilion won't have any income?"
"When the time comes, we'll turn it into cream popsicles, and Ice Pavilion can reopen."
There are also red bean popsicles, mung bean popsicles...
Sugar can be considered just as important as salt mainly because it can be used to make so many delicious foods.
It can be said that...
Sugar is the soul of most sweets!
"Oh, right."
Wei Shuyu suddenly asked, "Has the house belonging to the Vice Minister of War been purchased?"
Wei Shuyu was still wealthy.
Choi Shin-ki had kept the 10,000 kan he earned at the gambling den.
"I bought it."
Choi Shin-ki immediately produced the house deeds and land deeds.
"Where is Qiqi?" Wei Shuyu put it away.
"She went to see the Emperor Emeritus..."
Qin Shandao said in a low voice, "It's not that she's short of money, she's after the retired emperor."
Wei Shuyu rubbed his forehead.
This young lady is quite tough.
He didn't even tell me he was short of money...
"Walk."
Chang'an Subdistrict.
Li Yuan continued to set up a stall as always.
Since that day, people have been flocking to Li Yuan's stall.
As everyone knows...
There's an old man here who writes letters cheaply, and his handwriting is beautiful.
The old man has delusions.
They were delusional enough to sell his painting for a staggering 100 strings of cash.
"Old Yuan, your little granddaughter is so good."
Old Qiu sat to the side, watching Wu Qiqi with a smile: "She's good-looking, hardworking, and accompanies you to set up your stall every day, rain or shine."
Ever since Li Yuan set up his stall here, Old Qiu has often come here to stroll around.
After a while, the two became friends.
"none of your business!"
Li Yuan snapped, "You have time to make sarcastic remarks, but don't you know how to come and help?"
"I can't help you, I can't help you..."
Old Qiu shook his head: "I'd be happy to ask you to go up the mountain to hunt tigers, but forget about writing."
Pooh.
Can an old man like you really fight a tiger?
I think you're just bragging.
"Uncle Qiu, could you help me collect the money?" Wu Qiqi said in a coquettish tone.
"Okay, okay..."
Old Qiu immediately broke into a hearty smile: "Qiqi really knows what I like to do."
"..."
Li Yuan rolled his eyes.
"Oh, right, Qiqi..."
Old Qiu stepped forward and said slyly, "Is he engaged yet? My grandson is of good character and knows martial arts. How about I introduce him to you?"
"Uncle Qiu, I'm already engaged," Wu Qiqi replied with a smile.
Um?
Old Qiu was unhappy when he heard that.
Such a wonderful girl has been snatched up by someone else?
This is intolerable! Absolutely intolerable!
Then he started yelling at Li Yuan...
"Hey Lao Yuan, what's wrong with you? How can you get Qi Qi engaged at such a young age?"
"What's the man's family background like? What's his character like? Is he good-looking enough? Is he a good match for Qiqi...?"
"There are specific rules for all of these."
"no!"
"Qiqi is such a good girl, we can't let you, an old geezer, sell her off like this."
"I'll go with you to the man's house tomorrow."
"..."
Li Yuan rolled his eyes.
You're certainly meddling in other people's business.
If I send you to the Wei residence, can you out-argue Old Wei?
besides……
Do you think your grandson can compare to Xiao Wei?
"If you have nothing better to do, get lost and don't get in my way of making money," Li Yuan scolded disdainfully.
Old Qiu grunted but didn't reply.
Holding the box, he obediently got to work collecting money.
Why are so many people writing letters today?
Old Qiu glanced at the crowd.
While it's always been popular, it's never been this busy.
Moreover, the letter writers have a growing sense of increasing numbers.
"not good!"
Old Qiu was terrified.
Because he saw that one of the people in the group was tucked into their clothes.
Just then, one of them revealed... a dagger!
"Your Majesty, run!"
Wu Qiqi also noticed the anomaly and immediately shouted loudly.
Um?
Li Yuan, who was writing a letter, looked up.
A dagger was seen being thrust towards his head...
