Soon, a plate of cut cucumbers was placed in front of Qian Ruoyu.
Qian Ruoyu didn't expect that although the butcher was a rough man, his hospitality was so comprehensive, and his three little kids looked extremely cute.
The three little kids just had their hair shaved in a bun, and they looked so cute.
Butcher Wang asked immediately.
"Princess Princess... this... Although I have done business with the palace and other dignitaries before, this is the first time I have received a distinguished guest like you!"
"I don't know what business the princess has, please tell me... I don't talk much, so please forgive me..."
But Qian Ruoyu was a little surprised.
Butcher Wang had already been polite enough in his words, but now he even asked me to be tolerant.
Qian Ruoyu didn't say much and asked calmly.
"There are 180 people in my palace. If they have bought some meat from you before, how much meat did they buy?"
Butcher Wang thought about it for a moment.
"Well... in the past, we bought it every three to five days, and each time it was almost five catties of fat meat mixed with one catty of lean meat. This is for the servants."
"In addition, I have cut three pounds of lean meat. We sell pig's trotters every day, but no one came to buy yesterday..."
"But it is also true... There are many butchers in this market, and it is impossible for the palace to come to me every time to buy."
But after hearing these words, Qian Ruoyu was stunned.
There are more than a hundred people, and they only eat six kilograms of fat and lean meat together, and that’s only once every three to five days!
The food given to the nobles in the palace was three pounds each, including the pig's trotters that Chu Mobai liked.
The thought of this made Qian Ruoyu feel extremely shocked, but relatively speaking, the food for the servants in the palace was much better than that of ordinary people!
The butcher asked.
"Madam, how many pounds of meat do you want to buy today? If you need it, I'll go cut it right now..."
Qian Ruoyu stopped him.
"No need. Today we are here to discuss a big deal. How about this? From now on, you will prepare thirty catties of fat and lean meat for me every day. Pig's trotters are not included. Can you calculate how much silver it will cost in a day?"
Aunt Zhou, who was standing by, became extremely excited after hearing these words, and she wished she was a butcher herself.
But Qian Ruoyu had already calculated that more than a hundred people would eat 30 kilograms a day. Although it was not much, it was many times better than before.
It is naturally impossible for Qian Ruoyu to let everyone eat the most delicious food every day, but it is necessary to improve the food quality to a certain extent.
Butcher Wang thought about it and said immediately.
"This... a pound of meat costs fifteen coins, thirty pounds of fat and lean meat costs four hundred and fifty coins, and as for pig's trotters, six are needed every day, which costs more than a hundred coins. The total is about six hundred coins..."
After hearing this, Qian Ruoyu was stunned. All this meat cost less than a hundred dollars.
In this case, a month's worth of meat would only be a dozen taels of silver, so Qian Ruoyu simply clapped his hands.
"Okay, okay, you don't have to calculate it. I will give you twenty taels of silver every month. You just need to deliver the meat to my house on time. What do you think?"
After hearing what Qian Ruoyu said, Butcher Wang was even more shocked. He never expected that he would be paid twenty taels of silver a month.
But he didn't hesitate at all. He quickly stood up and bowed towards Qian Ruoyu.
"No problem, no problem... I didn't expect that the princess would be such a big deal. If I had known this, I would have used all my belongings to entertain you..."
"Twenty taels of silver a month, that's two hundred and forty taels of silver a year. I, Wang the Butcher, will be rich!"
Wang the Butcher was extremely shocked, but Qian Ruoyu standing next to him remained calm. After all, the vegetables that needed to be purchased were naturally more than meat, so the money spent on vegetables was much more than that on meat.
With more than a hundred people, they can barely eat one or two ounces of meat every day.
It may be little for modern people, but for ancient people it can be said to be very, very rich.
But after this, Qian Ruoyu was even more puzzled as to how she could have spent such a huge amount of money to buy so many vegetables and meat.
Could it be that Chu Mobai had not noticed all this before and just let the money continue to go down the drain? ?
Qian Ruoyu knew that she couldn't continue asking Zhang Ma and Wang Po. After all, there were still things that needed their help, so Qian Ruoyu naturally couldn't ask them at this time.
But Qian Ruoyu saw that the butcher Wang in front of him was so excited, so he gently signaled Aunt Zhou next to him.
Aunt Zhou nodded naturally.
"Hey, hey, hey, Master Wang, calm down. If you act like this, the princess won't want to discuss cooperation with you, and we'll have to leave."
"If you scare the princess like this, I'll see how you deal with her next!"
After hearing these words, Wang the Butcher naturally stood still and looked at Qian Ruoyu with a somewhat timid look.
He was afraid that he would offend Qian Ruoyu for any reason, so he kept lowering his head at this moment while speaking.
"Please rest assured, Princess. I will calm down from now on. If there is anything, please tell me. If you are not satisfied with anything, please tell me..."
After all, it is rare to receive such an order. There are so many picture galleries in the entire market, and not every good thing can come to him.
After Qian Ruoyu nodded, Butcher Wang immediately looked at Aunt Zhou next to him and said with gratitude.
"Auntie Zhou, thank you so much. If you weren't here this time, I'm afraid Queen Faye Wong wouldn't even think of coming to my place. I'll continue to treat you to dinner later!"
But Aunt Zhou waved her hand.
"No need, no need. This is just a trivial matter. You don't need to worry about it. I think you should prepare the meat that the princess needs. If there is any problem, I can't help you!"
Hearing this, Master Wang nodded without any hesitation and made a promise to Qian Ruoyu.
"Please rest assured, Princess, I will keep a close eye on this matter every day. There will definitely not be any defects or shortages in my meat!"
Qian Ruoyu naturally felt relieved after hearing these words, and then he followed Aunt Zhou to leave the market and return to the small courtyard.
Qian Ruoyu took a look at the situation in the small courtyard and felt much more relieved. It seemed that he had solved the problem today.
