Chapter 312 How can I get a cheat?
Jinzhi was unable to bring much food from the big kitchen.
It was freezing cold in Tianshan County, with the outdoor temperature exceeding twenty degrees below zero.
Everyone eats the same thing, which is stored cabbage, potatoes, etc., plus a little fresh meat every day.
Ye Chutang would occasionally take out some green vegetables from the space to satisfy everyone's cravings.
So, when Jinzhi saw the extra dishes in the kitchen, she didn't find it strange.
Without saying a word, she immediately started picking and washing vegetables.
Ye Chutang was pregnant and it was inconvenient for her to help, so she called Qingping and Qingan over.
Although these two servants can't cook, they can help out.
They are also happy to help.
Because even eating leftovers in the small kitchen is much better than eating the big pot of meals prepared specifically for servants.
When Qi Yanzhou returned to Tangzhou Courtyard, Ye Chutang was embroidering clothes for the child in the room.
She actually doesn't like needlework, but she is really bored.
"Atang, stop embroidering. The light is bad at night. Watch your eyes."
As he said this, he was about to take away the fabric and needle and thread from Ye Chutang's hand.
Ye Chutang quickly dodged, "There's only a little left to finish the embroidery."
"Let me do it."
Ye Chutang was so shocked by these words that he almost stabbed his own hand.
"Can you do needlework?"
"No, but I can mend clothes."
The underwear that Ye Chutang sewed for her children only had stitches, no patterns or embroidery.
That's why Qi Yanzhou dared to take on the remaining finishing touches.
He embroidered very well, which made Ye Chutang look at him with new eyes.
She joked, "It seems that you really didn't have a woman before."
These words caused Qi Yanzhou to prick his finger.
He looked at Ye Chutang helplessly and dotingly.
"Ah Tang, I have never had anyone other than you, and I will never have anyone else besides you again."
Ye Chutang raised an eyebrow, "Me too."
These words pleased Qi Yanzhou, and he sewed the clothes faster.
Sun Chu was the first to come to Tangzhouyuan.
He looked at Qi Yanzhou, who was holding needle and thread, and his eyes almost popped out.
"Madam Qi, you know how to control your husband!"
Ye Chutang rolled his eyes.
"No, I won't take the blame for this. What's wrong with a man without a woman being more capable?"
Sun Chu rolled his eyes at Ye Chutang in return.
"It's not like we don't have the money to buy new ones."
“Wealth and thrift are not opposite antonyms.”
Sun Chu couldn't argue with Ye Chutang, so he changed the subject.
"My restaurant and rouge shop will be renovated soon. When do you think it would be a good time to open them?"
He wanted to have good luck on New Year's Eve.
But I also feel that having no business at the end of the year is not a good start.
So it's very confusing.
Ye Chutang thought for a moment and said, "On the sixth or eighth day of the first lunar month, we should organize a few more activities to attract customers."
Sun Chu patted his chest and promised, "This is my strong point, leave it to me."
Applying modern promotional techniques to ancient people will always be successful no matter what industry you are in!
Ye Chutang has great confidence in Sun Chu's ability to make money.
Otherwise, he would not have become as rich as a country within three years.
"Okay, you take care of sales and I'll take care of products."
She took out a few pieces of paper from her arms and handed them to Sun Chu.
"This is the cosmeceutical formula I wrote recently. Keep it for now. When the road is open in the spring, you can buy the raw materials."
Sun Chu collected the paper very carefully and put it in his arms.
"Okay, don't worry about me being too busy. If you have any new products, just give them to me."
"Quality of products is more important than quantity. Just one new product a year is enough, otherwise people won't be interested in it."
Ye Chutang's words were recognized by Sun Chu.
"That's true. If the products are too diverse and messy, it will be easy for problems to occur. Once I figure out a mature operating model, I can open branches with new products and compete with each other for profits."
Just like Wrigley and Extra, they are competitors on the surface, but actually come from the same company.
"That's what I mean. Each store doesn't need to have many products, but they must be refined and have their own unique characteristics."
"Well, just as you said."
The two of them chatted without avoiding Qi Yanzhou.
He was very puzzled by the two people's familiarity with each other and the coincidence of their ideas.
It was as if they had known each other for a long time and knew everything about each other.
Not relatives, but very much like relatives.
He was very glad that Ye Chutang only took Sun Chu as a partner, otherwise he might not be able to win.
Because of Ye Chutang's many ideas, he couldn't keep up with her pace immediately.
But Sun Chu can!
Qi Yanzhou thought of this and said to Sun Chu, "Mr. Sun, when I gather the Qi family army again, you can come and help train them."
Sun Chu didn't like military camps and battlefields at all. They were boring and bloody.
Just as he was about to refuse, Ye Chutang spoke.
"Two points."
The words of rejection rolled around Sun Chu's lips before he swallowed them back into his stomach.
If it's one point, he'll have to think about it again.
Two points is a big deal, and it would be a big loss if you don’t make money.
"Okay, I'm willing to help."
With these two points, he will have five points.
Another big step towards freedom!
After a while, Song Jingning came with the two siblings of the Cui family.
When Ye Chutang saw the two siblings again, he clearly felt the difference between them.
He seems to have the open-mindedness and steadiness of someone who has seen the world.
Cui Yunchen and Cui Shuyue saluted everyone.
"Cui Yunchen/Cui Shuyue, nice to meet you all."
Ye Chutang smiled and said, "We are all young people, there is no need to go through all this formality, please take a seat."
Sun Chu also didn't like the ancient people's etiquette of bowing and kowtowing.
He greeted her like a host: "Come and sit down, have some fruits and snacks, you can't get these anywhere else."
He was really curious about the "ghost thief".
space? Mall? system?
If Ye Chutang hadn't made it clear that he wouldn't say anything, he would have really asked, how could he get the cheat?
Others who traveled through time all had golden fingers, why did he not have even a single hair!
The Cui brothers and sisters did not forget etiquette because of Ye Chutang and Sun Chu's enthusiasm, and they behaved very strictly.
Song Jingning was much more casual, he ate and drank as he pleased.
Since they are all young people who have traveled all over the country, they can talk about a lot on any topic.
Qi Yanzhou was still sewing clothes, occasionally joining in with a few words.
He found that Cui Yunchen's views on the world coincided with his own.
Even his analysis of the court was profound and sharp.
"I didn't expect that the Cui family, a century-old family of scholars, would actually raise a strategist."
In his opinion, as long as Cui Yunchen wanted, he could become a powerful weapon behind the scenes and kill people without shedding blood.
Cui Yunchen glanced at Song Jingning, then stood up and bowed to Qi Yanzhou.
"I wonder if I, Cui, will be lucky enough to become Mr. Qi's counselor?"
Qi Yanzhou didn't even raise his head and continued sewing clothes.
"I am an idle person now. Master Cui has found the wrong person."
"I didn't choose the wrong person, because what I pursue is not power, but world peace."
"In that case, please ask Master Cui to write me a policy on state governance."
This is exactly what Cui Yunchen was waiting for.
He took out the policy on state governance that he had written long ago from his arms and handed it to Qi Yanzhou respectfully.
"Please give me some advice when you are not busy, Master Qi."
Qi Yanzhou finally finished sewing the inner garment.
Although his stitches were smooth, they were nothing compared to Ye Chutang's.
After collecting the thread, he put away the needle and thread, folded the clothes, and took them to the main room.
After finishing his work, he took over Cui Yunchen's policy on governing the country.
"Master Cui came prepared."
Cui Yunchen raised the corners of his lips, "Because I have wanted to become Master Qi's disciple for a long time."
He didn't care about the affairs of the country and family before, he just wanted to study hard.
But when he saw the injustice of the world, he also saw clearly his own ambitions and aspirations.
Qi Yanzhou did not look at the policy of state governance immediately. He put it away and put it in his arms.
"Mr. Cui, after I have read it, if I think it is useful, I will find you."
Cui Yunchen is very confident in his policy proposal.
After all, this policy on state governance had been advised by Song Jingning.
"Look forward to hearing from you."
As soon as he finished speaking, Qi Shuyan came.
"What are you talking about? It sounds serious."
Cui Yunchen bowed to Qi Shuyan and said, "Hello, Master Qi. We are discussing the strategy of governing the country."
"It's a heavy topic. Did you talk about anything?"
"No, Cui has never been involved in state affairs. He is just talking on paper."
Qi Shuyan felt that this was wrong.
"Most people who have been involved in state affairs are deeply involved in the chess game, and few can jump out of the chessboard and see the overall situation."
“Those who are deeply involved in the game of chess cannot see through it, but those who are outside the game do not understand the game.”
"That makes sense, so we need insiders and outsiders to give each other guidance."
Seeing that the men's conversation was becoming more and more profound, Ye Chutang coughed lightly.
"National affairs have nothing to do with us now. The development of Tianshan County is our top priority."
By seeing the big picture from the small, you can get a general idea of the situation.
Her words were unanimously agreed by everyone.
If we can transform the impoverished Tianshan County into a land of oil, the entire Beichen Kingdom will become rich and powerful.
The two brothers of the Qi family know Tianshan County best and talk about it the most.
Then it was supplemented by Cui Yunchen and Song Jingning.
Although Sun Chu was only interested in business, he would occasionally interject and say something shocking.
After all, he had studied history and read "Zizhi Tongjian".
They kept chatting until the food was served.
Song Jingning said with emotion: "I haven't had such a happy chat for a long time. As expected, I feel happy only when I put my knowledge into practice."
Ye Chutang asked Jinzhi to make a pot of honey water.
"You must be thirsty. Drink some honey water to moisten your throat first, then have a good meal."
Everyone was chatting happily and even ignored the table manners, eating and talking at the same time.
The meal took more than an hour.
If they hadn't considered that Ye Chutang was pregnant and needed to rest early, they would have talked all night.
After Qi Yanzhou saw a few people off, he felt his throat was a little dry and drank several glasses of water in a row.
"You still have to speak out your thoughts to know whether they are good or not."
He benefited a lot tonight.
Ye Chutang felt a little tired and yawned while lying on the table.
"Indeed, we are all smart people who can pool our wisdom. I think with everyone's joint efforts, Tianshan County will be able to prosper in a few years."
Qi Yanzhou nodded in agreement.
In a flash, he frowned again, "Atang, you are right, if you want to be rich, you must first build roads."
"The reason why the North is so poor is not only because of its own poor environment, but also because of the poor roads and inconvenience for trade."
But the north is too vast, and sandstorms often blow and bury the roads.
Building roads is simply a fantasy!
Ye Chutang's mind flashed to the highway that ran through the no-man's land, and he said with certainty, "Where there is a will, there is a way."
As long as you think about it and do it, you will succeed one day.
She not only has to build roads, but also dig rivers to complete the South-to-North Water Diversion Project!
Of course, this is not something that can be accomplished in a short period of time.
Perhaps she will never be able to accomplish any of these in her entire life.
But it doesn’t matter, just doing it is a success for her.
Qi Yanzhou was infected by Ye Chutang's belief and said solemnly, "Atang is right, where there is a will, there is a way!"
***
The next day.
Ye Chutang was woken up before dawn.
Good news, Chen Ruoyun woke up.
And her merit value increased by more than 50,000.
In other words, Chen Ruoyun is out of danger and her life is no longer in danger.
Chen Kui and his wife never expected that their daughter, who had been abandoned by everyone, was actually brought back to life by Ye Chutang.
The two were so excited that they completely forgot that everyone was still resting and insisted on coming to Tangzhou Court to thank Ye Chutang.
Ye Chutang lay on the bed, feeling the shock brought to her by the high merit value.
Qi Yanzhou thought she was unhappy after being woken up, so he raised his hand to cover her eyes.
"Atang, you take a rest, I'll go take a look."
Ye Chutang held Qi Yanzhou's hand and used his strength to stand up.
"I'll go and check on Chen Ruoyun's health."
Since you’ve received such a high “reward”, you should at least put in more effort, right?
Ye Chutang put on his coat and fox fur cloak and came to the main hall.
As soon as Chen Kui and his wife saw her, they immediately bowed deeply.
"Mrs. Qi, thank you for saving my daughter."
"You two don't have to be so polite. Miss Chen has woken up. You can go and prepare a hundred taels of gold."
Her attitude of paying both money and goods made Chen Kui and his wife very happy.
It is the cheapest to use gold and silver to repay a debt of life!
Chen Kui stood up and said, "Don't worry, Madam Qi, the hundred taels of gold will be delivered to you before New Year's Eve."
Ye Chutang nodded with satisfaction, "Let's go and see Miss Chen."
Qi Yanzhou and Ye Chutang went to the side hall together.
Although Chen Ruoyun woke up, she fell asleep again soon because she was too weak.
Chen Kui and his wife thought she had fainted again and were very scared.
Madam Chen asked anxiously, "Madam Qi, my daughter just woke up. Could it be a moment of last breath?"
She didn't even have time to say a word to her daughter before she ran to Tangzhou Courtyard excitedly.
If I miss my daughter's last words...
Ye Chutang spoke up, interrupting Mrs. Chen's wild thoughts.
"Don't worry, Madam Chen. Miss Chen is out of danger. She is not unconscious, she is asleep."
After saying that, she reached out and felt Chen Ruoyun's pulse.
Although the pulse is weak, it does not indicate that the patient is dying.
This means that her health is improving, but her injuries are too severe and her organs are infected, so she will need a long time to recover.
Chen Kui and his wife both stared at Ye Chutang's hands, too nervous to breathe.
When Ye Chutang finished taking her pulse, they both asked in unison, "How is our daughter?"
Ye Chutang raised her pink lips in a relieved smile.
"Don't worry, Miss Chen will be able to recover as long as she is properly taken care of. However, her body is too weak to travel by boat or train. She will have to recuperate in the Qi Mansion for at least a month."
"I'm sorry to bother you, Madam Qi. All expenses for my daughter's recuperation in the Qi Mansion will be paid by our Chen family."
Ye Chutang knew that Chen Kui didn't want to owe anyone a favor, so he nodded.
"Okay, the hundred taels of gold is just the cost of treating Miss Chen. I will have someone write down the details of the medicine she took, as well as the money for her food and drink, and I will settle the bill with General Chen when the time comes."
Chen Kui clasped his fists and said, "That's great."
