Chapter 80 Imperial ice jade jelly

At this time, the servants of the Chang family also brought melon and fruit snacks.

And with the iced food that Zhu Yunxi brought today, the gazebo was decorated in a dazzling array.

All the people present took their seats.

Zhu Yunxi looked at the ice food put in front of him by the servants of the Chang family, and smiled slightly: "It's for this."

Chang Jizu looked puzzled: "Is this ice food?"

Zhu Yunxi nodded, and then recounted his plan again.

When Zhu Yunxi revealed the whole plan, Chang Jizu patted the table without hesitation and said: "According to what you said, although the Chang family is not rich, there are still a few shops that can be cleared for you. If you don’t want to take it, whether it’s someone or something, I’ll make the decision!”

As the founding father of Chang Sheng, the current head of the Chang family, the affairs of the family are not comprehensive.

On the contrary, Chang Jizu and his three generations have grown up, and the family affairs have gradually been handed over to them, leading the housekeepers to handle them.

Chang Jizu is the boss of the younger generation of the Chang family, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he can call the shots.

Zhu Yunxi immediately raised the teacup in front of him, and held it up with both hands: "So, Yunxi will thank my cousin first!"

Chang Jizu agreed with a smile, and when he turned around, he showed the frivolity of a young man, and teased with an ambiguous face: "Don't thank you, we are all family. As long as you get married later, you will spend more time with me on the wedding day." A few jugs of wine are enough."

Before Zhu Yunxi could react, the eldest sister of the Chang family was quite annoyed and said, "Brother, are you trying to get Yunxi drunk? Then how can he have a bridal chamber..."

After talking about the latter, the eldest sister of the Chang family came to her senses, rolled her eyes at Chang Jizu angrily and annoyed for a while, lowered her head and turned sideways, stomping her feet incessantly.

……

A few more days.

The heat in Yingtian City is getting hotter and hotter, officially entering midsummer.

There have been no major events in the court recently, except for reports from the Northern Expedition Army from the north from time to time, it seems that the Ming Dynasty is peaceful.

During this period, only the emperor issued a decree to reprimand the king of Qin, Zhu Yu, and ordered him to return to Beijing immediately to report on his duties as an agent, which aroused some slander in the court.

Another thing is that the emperor has already made a decree that the crown prince Zhu Biao will leave Beijing in the next ten days and go to Guanzhong and other places for inspection. There is no discussion about how many secrets there are in it, but it is always a bit strange to close the door in private. Few words and guesswork came out.

It's just that everyone has their own opinions, but no one really knows why the prince who has been in the center for many years went to Guanzhong and other places this time.

It is said that the Ming Dynasty is going to move the capital.

It is also said that the prince is going to appease the people in the land of Qin Fan.

Some people also said that this was for the purpose of reviewing the frontier armies.

It's just that the leader now is Emperor Hongwu, the founder of the Ming Dynasty, and no one has really guessed what this emperor is thinking in these years.

But under these circumstances, a trivial matter that did not attract much attention was in Yingtian City, which aroused heated discussions and expectations among the common people.

Rumor has it that the grandson of the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, His Royal Highness Zhu Yunxie, King of Huaiyou County, made another novel iced food.

The novelty is that it is incomparable to what is given to the ministers of the third rank and above in the court every day.

However, in order to reflect the benevolent government and to have fun with the people, the clan sold the novelty ice food to the outside world, and anyone could buy and enjoy it.

It's just that the common people know that such things must be of great value.

But in addition to these, Huaiyou County King will also sell the ordinary ice food, which is the principle of sharing the joy with the people.

For a while, it attracted the attention of the people in the city, and they all looked forward to the news of several shops that spread.

stay until one day.

The sky was bright and clear, cloudless, and the sun was shining brightly.

Located at the junction of Dongcheng and Zhongcheng, outside Chang's store, countless people and servants dressed in extraordinary clothes and talking quietly gathered outside.

A few guys from the Chang family stood in front of the store, constantly persuading them with good words and reminding them loudly, only then did they stop the crowd from rushing into the store.

The shopkeeper of this store stood on the steps, sweating profusely, looking forward to the direction of the imperial city from time to time.

Now is the time when the weather is hot, and people are crowded together again, and the crowd is gradually getting impatient.

"I'm talking about the shopkeeper of the Chang family. When will the imperial ice jade jelly be available? My lord's Qi Fangru and his wife are already waiting!"

"Yes, yes, yes, yes! My three young ladies are also waiting!"

"Shopkeeper, if you don't let us in again, we'll rush in and get it ourselves."

"Hurry up, I can't afford the ice jade jelly named by His Majesty's imperial pen, but I can always buy some of the ordinary ice food, so I can give the children a fresh taste."

"..."

The crowd became noisy.

The storekeeper of the Chang family became more and more anxious, and immediately raised his voice and shouted: "Everyone! Everyone! My family has never been wrong. It is said that it is selling the ice jade jelly named by His Majesty's imperial pen today. It is today that I will ask everyone to buy it and go home!"

"Then if you don't take it out, I won't believe it!"

"Ah! Yes, yes, yes! I am the same!"

"Stop talking again, take it out!"

"..."

The crowd is getting out of control.

The shopkeeper of the Chang family was sweating profusely, and kept looking towards the direction of the imperial city.

at last!

A carriage slowly drove towards the shop.

The shopkeeper of the Chang family's eyes lit up, and he pointed at the carriage and shouted: "See you, here we come! Give way, give way, if it's overturned, everyone won't be able to eat!"

With his yell, everyone turned their attention, confirming that it was the delivery carriage coming, and the crowd began to make voices.

"Let's all go, let's go! If my little ladies don't end up with iced food, I'll make you look good!"

"The ones in front give way."

After a long while, the carriage finally arrived at the side of the shop and squeezed through the gate of the backyard.

After a while, baskets of ice cubes were placed on the front half of Chang's shop, and then all kinds of ice foods were piled on top.

In the innermost place, which is also the most eye-catching place, there is a sign with five big characters written on it, and it is also standing on the ice pile.

"That smoothie costs a penny, so it's cheap."

"Ice cream is ten cents, it's not too much to taste once in a while."

"This ice jade jelly..."

"I want to get a tael of silver tattooed!"

The common people who crowded into Chang's shop never bought it, but started discussing the well-known Bingyu jelly.

After seeing the price, there was a burst of exclamation.

"At this price, I'm afraid I won't be able to eat a bite in my life..."

"Sure enough, the thing that can be named by His Majesty's imperial pen is so unusual."

Ordinary people couldn't help sighing, with longing looks on their faces, probably imagining how happy the children in the family would be if they could buy this ice jade jelly home.

I don't know which house is in charge, and said arrogantly: "This is something you can't afford. It's useless to see it. Don't delay us. If you don't go there, the sand ice that costs a penny over there will be gone." It's almost sold out..."

While talking, the steward hummed twice and took out a wallet.

"Shopkeeper, this is a hundred guan banknotes, bring me a hundred ice jade jelly!"
