"It's a fruit shop." Bihe replied, "There are fresh ones like oranges, apples, and pears, and there are also dried fruits like walnuts and peanuts."

Lu Hanzhi nodded while looking at the records on the ledger.At this time, the ledgers were all running accounts. Lu Hanzhi heard from Bihe that it was rare for Princess Qingyun to find so many ways. It was easy to go to the street to buy some kind of fruit, but it was not easy to get everything together.

"The elder brother of the princess doesn't like to read books, but likes to do business and travel. The princess always likes to eat these things. I think he found a way to find the second son of the palace." Lu Hanzhi smiled. King Jing is Jinshang's younger brother, such a relationship Born to enjoy honor and wealth, but also the most likely to be jealous of the king.

King Jing has no pursuit of power, but only likes scholars. The concubine married a daughter of the Chen family, who is a scholarly family, and she made friends with elegant people. But King Jing's two sons, the sons like to make friends with talented people just like King Jing. The second son likes traveling and doing business.Lu Hanzhi remembered that the second son was not a famous businessman, but he had traveled to many places, and there were many ways to find the source of goods.

"So that's it!" Bi He nodded, and said again, "I took a rough look at this shop, and the income of this shop is still good." A big maid like Bi He is more or less literate, not to mention how good knowledge, simple There is no problem with the account books. They are different from the little maids who do chores, and they are the master's right-hand man.

Lu Hanzhi guessed this point from Princess Qingyun sending her the account book with a happy expression on her face, but after flipping through it carefully, Lu Hanzhi slightly frowned and said: "It's true that you earn a lot, but you also waste a lot!"

Some time ago, Lu Hanzhi was confinement and didn't have the energy to read these things. Bihe and Qiuchan had roughly read them and reported them to Lu Hanzhi.But the account book is the most important thing, Bihe only took a cursory look at it, and didn't look at it carefully if there was no loss, and deal with it when Lu Hanzhi recovered. Hearing what Lu Hanzhi said, he was a little surprised: "Is it because the manager is not effective?"

"It's okay to sell all kinds of fruits, dried fruits are fine, and fresh fruits are perishable, so there is no way to do it." Common people don't have more energy to spend on these fruits, and they are even more reluctant to spend money to buy them, so this business is aimed at The most important is the wealthy family.But fresh fruits are perishable, and many of them are shipped from other places, so it is normal for them to be worn out.

"What should I do?" Bihe was somewhat worried when she heard what Lu Hanzhi said. As a capable person around Lu Hanzhi, she also went to the shop to look for Lu Hanzhi. Those fruits are not cheap, and there is always a lot of waste. It hurts.

"We can make some jam." Lu Hanzhi didn't worry about it before, but thought about it for a while. It's not worthwhile to transport a long distance.Damaged ones that don’t look good can also be dealt with at a reduced price, but the quantity that can be processed is limited, so you can divide a part of it to make jam.It is not difficult to make jam, but there is no habit of using jam at this time. There are not many Chinese pastries using jam. If you really want to make it, you have to consider the market.

"Jam? Like plum jam?" There are not many jams at this time, and what Bihe can think of is the more common plum jam, which can be used to make plum cakes, but it is not as common as salted greengage.

"Almost, I'll talk about it after I try it." Lu Hanzhi nodded. She couldn't be in a hurry. She hadn't decided whether to waste the jam or set up a snack shop to consume the jam.

Hearing what Lu Hanzhi said, Bihe didn't ask any more questions, and was about to put away the account book and change to another one, when the little maid announced, "Second Grandma is here!"

After Wang Xueran married into the Cheng family, she was quite active in making friends with Lu Hanzhi. Before Lu Hanzhi was in confinement, Wang Xueran often came and walked around. When he heard the news of her coming, Lu Hanzhi told Bihe to put away the account book, and got up to meet her.

"Sister-in-law, I'm here to ask for tea again!" After getting along a little bit more, Wang Xueran and Lu Hanzhi got to know each other better, and it was only then that Lu Hanzhi realized that Wang Xueran was not a quiet and introverted character. When we first met, it was probably because he had just married into the Cheng family. .

Lu Hanzhi called Wang Xueran to sit down, but Wang Xueran set his eyes on the account book that Bihe was holding out, and asked curiously: "What is sister-in-law busy with? Am I causing trouble to sister-in-law?"

Lu Hanzhi smiled and said no, and explained casually: "It's all the accounts of my dowry. I was pregnant with the child and didn't have the energy to take care of it. Later, I was confinement, so there are so many piles up."

"Really?" Wang Xueran sat down with a smile, somewhat envious in her heart.The Wang family is also a well-known family in the capital, but her father's generation is not considered outstanding, and the family is somewhat in decline. She heard her mother talk about the dowry when her aunt got married, but when it came to her, it was far inferior to her aunt.When she got married, the dowry carried out was also very spectacular, but she knew that most of the dowry was stuffed with clothes and materials, but there was only one small Zhuangzi in the house.

Of course, Wang Xueran wouldn't show her timidity in front of Lu Hanzhi by herself. He only smiled and said, "It's better to be a sister-in-law. After I pass the door, I will follow my aunt and mother to take care of the house. I haven't had time to free up my hands to take care of the dowry."

Lu Hanzhi still knew about Wang Xueran's dowry, and hadn't deliberately inquired about it, but there was no secret under one roof. Lu Hanzhi knew that Wang Xueran's dowry was not too much, so he didn't intend to expose her, so he just smiled and said: "It's my mother who loves me, Tell me to take care of Brother Chen first, and as for the housekeeper, I will talk about it when Brother Chen is older."

Wang Xueran secretly thought that there was no future for her, and she couldn't help complaining in her heart. When her family was betrothed at the beginning, why didn't she have a son, but a useless second-wife eldest son. Not bad either.Thinking so in my heart, I had to be polite in front of Lu Hanzhi, and said: "That's it, sister-in-law doesn't want to help my aunt to share her worries? Besides, sister-in-law is the wife of the son, so she should be the housekeeper!"

If it were said that Lu Hanzhi was still a little confused about Wang Xueran's thoughts, how could he fail to guess after hearing what she said.Mrs. Zheng is the wife of the Duke. Now that the old lady is out of business, she is naturally the steward of Mrs. Zheng. Therefore, Lu Hanzhi should be the housekeeper, not Mrs. Zheng, but Mrs. Liang.Seeing her appearance, Lu Hanzhi guessed that Wang Xueran's fight for power had aroused Liang's dissatisfaction, and he brought Lu Han out not to complain about her, but because he wanted her to spread the pressure.

Not to mention Zheng's sincerity, she was thinking of her, asking her to recuperate and take care of the children, even if she really wanted to fight for power, she would not be provoked by Wang Xueran to stand up and fight with her mother-in-law, and when the second room is separated in the future, She will spend most of her life with Zheng Shi.
