Chapter 168 New Year Celebration



Ying Zheng's heart was full of doubts.

But Zhao Jun was secretly happy at this time.

Xiao He indeed performed well and showed great composure in the face of danger.

Afterwards they talked about some serious matters.

Meng Tian also mentioned the idea of ​​mining coal in Shangjun, and Ying Zheng agreed.

Several people quickly gathered and dispersed, leaving only Zhao Jun and Fusu in the hall.

Fusu stayed to talk to Ying Zheng and also gave him a gift.

Zhao Jun also asked someone to bring the prepared specialties.

Afterwards, Ying Zheng chatted with Fusu about family matters.

Zhao Jun, who was sitting there with nothing to do, just wanted to leave as soon as possible.

When the two finally finished chatting, Zhao Jun took his turn and slipped away.

"Sir, you still have a way. Father really didn't even mention the things we didn't report."

Fusu, who had just walked out, was full of joy.

Zhao Jun nodded perfunctorily.

But in a corner unknown to them, only Meng Tian was injured.

After that, everyone got busy preparing for the upcoming New Year.

Everything is still in order at the Neishi Mansion.

There won't be any problems with Xiao He watching over the workshop.

Wang Deng on the other side also brought good news.

The sweet potatoes planted after the corn have also been harvested, and the yields in all aspects are very good.

Zhao Jun was happy, this was indeed good news.

Speaking of sweet potatoes, winter has already arrived in Xianyang, which makes Zhao Jun want to eat roasted sweet potatoes again.

She has been wandering around Xianyang every day these days, but she hasn't found any stall selling ready-made roasted sweet potatoes.

Zhao Jun, who was free and preparing for the New Year, suddenly had a fun idea.

"Fusu, how about coming? It's fun."

Zhao Jun encouraged Fusu and said in a tempting tone.

"Sir, if you really want to go, then of course I'm willing to go with you."

"Besides, I've never eaten baked sweet potatoes."

Zhao Jun planned to sell roasted sweet potatoes on the street, and Fusu was actually tempted when she heard her proposal.

He once helped sell skewers during the northern trade and found it very interesting.

The two hit it off immediately, and since there was coal available, they could definitely sell roasted sweet potatoes on the street.

On the second day in Xianyang, an enticing aroma continued to waft from a street.

It was the sweet potato stall owned by the two of them.

It was also the first time for Fusu to eat it. In such a cold winter, the warm roasted sweet potatoes were really delicious.

Many people came here after smelling the food. Zhao Jun didn't prepare much, so it was quickly eaten up.

The two came again the next day, still in the same street as yesterday, and also only sold for half a day.

On the third day, when Fusu came to see Zhao Jun excitedly again.

She was lying on the kang in the new bed, eating leisurely.

"Sir, aren't you going today?"

Fusu was not satisfied yet, he thought selling things was fun.

"No, it's so cold, we can just sell it for two days."

In fact, Zhao Jun’s purpose was just to have fun. He didn’t really want to keep selling it. It’s not cold enough.

Besides, she had another purpose.

A few days later, when Fusu and Zhao Jun went to the workshop together, they saw several stalls selling sweet potatoes on the street.

Zhao Jun knew that his goal had been achieved.

"Sir, you actually want to tell the people of Xianyang about this method of roasting sweet potatoes."

"The baking method is very simple and many people can learn it after just one look, so now they can make money from it."

Fusu looked at the sudden increase in the number of stalls outside, with many people in front of each stall, and suddenly understood what Zhao Jun was thinking.

"It's not just that, Fusu, send someone to buy two to try."

"If everyone knows how to do this, it will be much more convenient for me to eat roasted sweet potatoes, and it can also help ordinary people increase their income. Why not do it?"

Fusu nodded thoughtfully, he had learned something new.

This year's winter in Xianyang is very different from last year, and it is more than ten times more prosperous than last year.

Whenever Zhao Jun saw these changes, he felt proud.

Just before the end of the year, a good thing happened.

The big fish from the Weishui fish pond have been shipped.

This is the bulk of the fish pond this year, and the number is several times that of autumn.

Zhao Jun met the couple again, and they looked brighter than they had been a few months ago.

With so many fish, Zhao Jun asked them to sell them in the prosperous streets over there using the old method.

It’s a pity that it’s winter now, otherwise it would be more delicious if it was salted and dried for a few months to make pickled fish.

As the Chinese New Year was approaching, she left another batch as New Year gifts for the workshop workers.

The fish was very fresh, and she didn’t plan to keep it until the Chinese New Year. It would only be half a month away, so she sent it out in advance.

The number of workers in the workshop has doubled compared to last year, and many people are very happy to see such New Year gifts.

Even so, the number of fish left in the pond was several times more than before, and many people heard the news and moved.

But this time there were a lot of fish, so they sold them for several days and many families bought them.

For a time, the whole Xianyang was preparing for the upcoming year of bumper harvest.

Xiao He and Liu Ji are also particularly different this year.

The two settled in Xianyang this year, found what they wanted to do, and made money.

In addition to the particularly lively atmosphere in Xianyang this year, they are also immersed in such a warm atmosphere and feel that next year will be even better.

However, Zhao Jun, who is alone, occasionally feels lonely.

She was out and about during the day, so she felt fine.

But once she returned to the palace, Qingliu was there to talk to her before, but now she could only brag to the mirror.

So the bored Zhao Jun began to think about his life over and over again.
