Chapter 489 North Wind
What Shen Nuo wanted was simple: rice, bedding, and charcoal.
Shen Nuo believes that with these three things, one can safely get through the cold winter.
"Mr. Chen, why don't you ask for a little more?" Zhu Huaizhen asked leisurely.
“Princess Ronghua, who do you think Shen is?” Shen Nuo said in a clear voice.
"How about this, I'll give you an extra batch of warm jade as a subsidy." Zhu Huaizhen smiled like a flower, his eyes moving.
"Nuan Yu?" Shen Nuo hesitated for a moment.
Warm jade, as the name suggests, is warm all over.
Warm jade is often used in hot spring resorts and is very expensive.
The batch that Zhu Huaizhen mentioned is a big deal.
Shen Nuo thought that he didn't have to please anyone in Northern Zhou.
However, Shen Nuo was moved.
This batch of warm jade can be used to win people's hearts, especially the hearts of the nobles.
"By the way, you changed the incense, it seems to be Qinglin incense." Zhu Huaizhen shook his head and laughed.
This Qinglin incense is rare and retro.
With agarwood, sandalwood, camphor, musk, rose, asarum and honey as the main ingredients, it has a light sweet fragrance, a gentle cool fragrance, and a soft and refreshing fragrance, just like a water lotus bud about to bloom in early summer.
“Princess Ronghua, you are paying too much attention to Shen.” Shen Nuo said goodbye and left with slow steps.
Haha, Shen Nuo is just like that.
Zhu Huaizhen held her rosy cheek, looked at Shen Nuo's receding back, and sighed softly.
Next day, it became colder and colder, and the number of distinguished guests became fewer and fewer.
Many foreign merchants, upon hearing that the cold winter is approaching, have returned home, planning to come back next spring.
Of course, some merchants thought it was profitable and were reluctant to go back, so they stayed in Taoyao Tower.
Tu Mi then suggested opening the second and third floor rooms to provide simple food and accommodation to the civilians.
"Tu Mi, you make the decision." Zhu Huaizhen yawned repeatedly.
So Tu Mi and Qiu Niang were busy while Zhu Huaizhen listened to the opera.
Zhu Huaizhen was seen lying on a beauty couch surrounded by lacquered and gold-painted scrolls of poetry and paintings, holding a mahogany-handled round fan embroidered with pomegranates, cats and butterflies, moving it back and forth, his posture as lazy as a Persian cat.
Orioles chirp at dawn in the jade trees of Jinling, flowers bloom early in the Qinhuai waterside pavilions. Who knew the ice would melt so easily? I watched him build his red mansion, I watched him entertain guests, and I watched his mansion collapse. Here, amidst the mossy, blue tiles, I once slept in a dreamlike state; I've witnessed fifty years of rise and fall. No one in Wuyi Lane is surnamed Wang, ghosts cry at Mochou Lake, and owls roost on Phoenix Terrace. Dreams of the ruined mountains are the most real, the old land hard to lose. I don't believe this map is changing manuscripts. I'll compose a lament for Jiangnan, and sing it until I grow old.
This "Peach Blossom Fan", paired with Buddha Jumps Over the Wall, is most suitable for the cold winter.
Sugar-heart abalone, pineapple sea cucumber, white shark lips, young deer tendons, claw meat, golden shark fin, ivory clam meat, spider fish glue, quail eggs, ham, pork ribs, clean winter bamboo shoots, king oyster mushrooms, chrysanthemum mushrooms, wild pine mushrooms, morels, snow bamboo fungus, Shaoxing wine, eighteen ingredients, eighteen delicious flavors. The moment you lift the lotus leaf covering the jar, the rich meaty aroma is so fragrant that even a Buddha would jump over the wall.
"Your Highness, the north wind is blowing outside and it hurts my face." Tu Mi covered the red mark on her cheek.
Seeing this, Zhu Huaizhen felt distressed and immediately got off the beauty bed, took out the snow skin cream and applied it to Tu Mi.
"Tu Mi, if you want to go out these days, wear a cloak to keep out the wind." Zhu Huaizhen took out a bright red two-color gold brocade cloak with white fox fur lining and put it on Tu Mi.
Alas, she couldn't persuade Tu Mi to stop meddling in other people's business.
Seeing that the north wind was getting stronger, Tu Mi would definitely go out and rescue someone.
The houses in Shangjing are warm and cold-proof, but not very windproof.
