Li Mengyue was concentrating on eating, not knowing that Qian Dongjie saw the atmosphere between her and Xie Ruiyuan.
She didn't know that she had accidentally hurt a man's heart.
Xie Ruiyuan did notice it, but Qian Dongjie was not worth his attention.
He started eating only after Li Mengyue had eaten and drunk her fill.
Qingxuan and Qingxi, who were watching in the dark, were shocked to see Xie Ruiyuan eating the leftovers of Li Mengyue.
Especially Qingxi, his mouth was so wide open that he could easily fit an egg in it.
He really didn't expect that he, a noble prince, would one day be willing to eat a woman's leftovers.
"Boss Qingxuan, I... I didn't see it wrong!"
After asking Qingxuan, Qingxi rubbed his eyes with his hands and opened them again, but the scene was still unacceptable to him.
"Our prince is of such noble status, how could Li Mengyue...how dare she treat him like this?"
"Alright, it's not my turn to speak on the prince's affairs. Just do what the prince tells you to do."
"But where are we going to get so much food? There are tens of millions of disaster victims, and the amount of food they need is not a small amount."
"Oh, by the way, Prince Ji has had people prepare 100,000 kilograms of food."
When Qing Xuan heard this, his brows knitted together, as if weighed down by a heavy lead block. He said in a hoarse voice, "Not enough, not even close to enough."
"No, I'm going to rob the rich people in the city."
"Shut up!"
How many people in the court are watching our prince? Don't you know?
After saying this, Qingxuan fell silent. He was in charge of intelligence and knew everything that happened in the capital.
I also know how the disaster victims were handled this time and how much impact it had on the prince.
As long as the disaster victims are properly resettled, the throne of the crown prince will surely be his.
Although the position of crown prince originally belonged to his own prince, it was not easy to get the approval of all the court officials.
The most important thing at the moment is not money, but food.
Another point is that the price of grain in the city has risen sharply. Even with the intervention of the government, it is impossible to keep the price very low.
Previously in Guangqing Prefecture, they had almost used up all their silver, which was not enough to buy tens of millions of kilograms of grain.
The important thing is that due to the disaster, food is in short supply and you can’t buy food even if you have money.
When Qingxuan and Qingxi were worrying about food, Xie Ruiyuan put down his chopsticks.
Li Mengyue was supporting her chin with both hands, watching Xie Ruiyuan eat intently.
She found that Xie Ruiyuan was worthy of being a member of the royal family. He had been taught court etiquette since he was a child. His every move was elegant and proper, fully demonstrating the dignity and majesty of the royal family.
"I'm done eating."
"You have something to tell me."
"I……"
Li Mengyue was about to say that she had food when housekeeper Qian came over.
"Miss Li."
"Butler Qian, why are you here?"
"Miss Li, my young master asked me to give you your share of the profits this month."
As he spoke, Butler Qian handed over the account number and banknotes.
Li Mengyue did not refuse. The agreement was that she would provide the technology and get 20% of the profits.
What she didn't expect was that in just one month, she could get eight thousand taels.
You have to know that this is just the beginning, and many people don’t know about tofu. The Qian family has not put tofu in all the restaurants in Fu Man Lou.
After all, the Qian family runs Fu Man Lou, and some of the places are quite far away. If they want to prepare all the tofu dishes, it will definitely take more than one or two months.
To be honest, she was surprised that she could still earn 8,000 taels under such circumstances.
The cooperation with Tofu gave her greater confidence in roast duck.
No matter what, tofu is a small business, and compared with roast duck, the profit is small.
If Fu Man Lou had roast duck, she believed that Fu Man Lou's business would be even more prosperous.
"Butler Qian, I won't look at the accounts. I trust Brother Dongjie. Also, please tell Brother Dongjie that I have another dish that I'd like to collaborate with him on. However, I've been busy lately and can't come to the restaurant often, so I'll have to ask Brother Dongjie to make time to go to Xinghua Village and try the dishes."
