Chapter 338 No permanent allies, only permanent interests

Lin Qingqian turned around, Rong Jing was dressed in red, so handsome, looking at her with a faint smile on her lips.

"Rongjing, you're back, I was just talking about you."

When Rong Jing approached, Fu Yu called out, "Young Master Rong."

Rong Jing nodded slightly, his eyes fell on Lin Qingqian again, and said, "Youqian hasn't come here for a while, but what happened?"

"Nothing, just a little trouble at home that needs to be dealt with."

Rong Jing: "So that's it. Then... Youqian, please go to the upstairs wing, and I'll make you a pot of tea myself."

Lin Qingqian glanced at Fu Yu out of the corner of her eye, and said with a smile: "I came today to study a new drink, and I want to teach it to the chefs. You go up first. It just so happens that Fu Yu came back with an account book and wanted to give it to you. Look at the ledger first, I'll go to the kitchen, and I'll go up later."

Rong Jing didn't force it, and smiled slightly, "Okay."

Lin Qingqian took Hanyue to the kitchen, Fu Yu clenched his sleeves tightly, and followed Rongjing upstairs with a somewhat cautious expression.

in the kitchen.

Other beverages such as fruit juice and pearl milk tea only need to add ice cubes according to the previous method. Lin Qingqian ordered people to chisel the ice cubes from the ice cellar into small pieces and put them in the drinks.

"Come on, try it, does it taste better than the previous drink, and is it more refreshing?"

The chef and a few waiters ate, and their eyes lit up, "Mr. Lin, it's cold, and the taste of the drink is even better. It's really comforting to have a sip on a hot summer day."

Others agreed.

The chef asked suspiciously: "But... ice cubes are rare in summer, so the price of this drink needs to be adjusted?"

Lin Qingqian thought for a while, and said, "Just increase the price by two cents a bowl. Although ice cubes are rare in summer, but this winter, I ordered to build a lot of ice cellars, which should be usable. The ice cubes don't cost much. There is no need to sell too expensive."

"Okay, listen to Mr. Lin."

Lin Qingqian said: "By the way, I also brought a new drink today, called red beans..."

She stopped talking suddenly.

The name of red bean double-skin milk belongs to modern times. Should she choose a name that fits with this era, such as lotus seed soup, peach blossom soup... After thinking about it, she was shocked and said, "red bean milk soup."

"Red bean milk soup?"

"Well, this drink has a more unique taste, but it's more troublesome. After steaming, it needs to be refrigerated overnight in the ice cellar before being sold. I'll make it for you later, so you all carefully remember it."

Everyone in the kitchen nodded and stared intently at Lin Qingqian's next move.

Lin Qingqian heats the milk in a pot. When it is about to boil, take out the milk and let it cool down to form a creme skin. Use chopsticks to lift a corner of the creme skin, pour the milk back into the pot, add sugar and stir to dissolve, then add the beaten egg white Stir well, pour it back into the bowl just now, the creme will naturally float on the surface.

Lin Qingqian took a lid to cover the bowl, put it in the steamer and steamed it for about a quarter of an hour and took it out.

Lin Qingqian clapped his hands, and said: "The red bean milk soup is finished, let it cool now, I will put it in a wooden bucket filled with ice cubes for a while, and finally put honey red beans on it, then take it out for everyone to taste .”

The chefs looked admiring, and said, "Mr. Lin is really well-informed. Before coming to Yanyu Building, I never knew that milk can make so many delicious things."

Lin Qingqian rubbed her nose with a dry smile, thinking: No way, I was born thousands of years later than you.

"How much do you remember? If you can't remember, I'll write down the production steps, right here. If you don't know how, you can read it yourself."

The chef took the paper from Lin Qingqian, "Don't worry, Mr. Lin, we will remember it all."

Lin Qingqian nodded in satisfaction, seeing Hanyue's unsatisfied expression after drinking a cup of pearl milk tea, she said: "Hanyue, you stay here, let them make you any drinks you want, I'll go upstairs to find Rongjing."

Hanyue's eyes lit up, she nodded like a onion, "Yes, son."

Lin Qingqian brought two cups of milk tea with ice to the upstairs box, and when she entered, Rong Jing was alone in the room.

"Where's Fu Yu? Didn't he give you the account book?"

Rong Jing: "There is no problem with the account book. The restaurant over there is busy, so he can't stay long, and has already gone back."

"Oh, is that right? I also said that I made a new drink, and I'll let him try it later..." Lin Qingqian put the milk tea served in front of Rongjing, "In that case, Rongjing, you can try it. I ordered people to dig out ice from the ice cellar, this drink tastes better after adding ice, and it is also very refreshing."

After eating, Rong Jing said: "As Youqian said, this drink is extremely cool to drink in the hot summer, and it will definitely be liked by most people."

"That's right. Fortunately, I had the foresight to order someone to dig an ice cellar to store ice in winter."

Rong Jing put down the bowl and said, "Youqian, do the elders in your family often travel around? Otherwise, how would you know so many dietary practices that are not from the Beiming Kingdom?"

Lin Qingqian said with a dry smile, "Naturally, naturally...businessmen, they always go all the way..."

Afraid that Rongjing would continue to ask, Lin Qingqian changed the subject, "Rongjing, which adult's house do you often go to play the piano?"

Rong Jing's eyes drooped slightly, and he said unhurriedly: "Youqian should not know the adults who took care of Yanyu Pavilion before, so let's not mention it."

Lin Qingqian: "...Oh."

She didn't worry about it either.

Lin Qingqian didn't stay in Yanyu Tower for long, and took Hanyue back.

As soon as Lin Qingqian walked away, Yang Cong entered the room of Rongjing with his back foot, bent down to salute, and said, "My lord, this is the message from the people in Beiming Palace just now."

Rong Jing took it, opened the note, read the content on it, and smiled with a bit of sarcasm in his lips, and a dangerous light in his eyes.

Yang Cong learned that this was a sign of Rongjing's anger, and he asked, "My lord, what did you say in this letter?"

Rong Jing narrowed his eyes slightly, and the note shredded into confetti in his hands.

He said: "Emperor Beiming wants Duan Fei to lead the Hundred Thousand Xuanjia Battalion to guard the border of Western Chu."

Yang Cong's expression suddenly changed, "My lord, doesn't Bei Ming want to..."

Rong Jing said lazily and authentically: "People's hearts are always dissatisfied. As the king of a country, they are even more ambitious. Now that the Bada tribe has become a subordinate state of Beiming, they donate horses and weapons every year. There are no hidden dangers in the border of Beiming. Ming's strength is getting stronger and stronger, how can he keep his own law and order."

Yang Cong looked worried, "Young Master, what should we do then? The letter can say when the Xuanjia Camp will arrive at the border of Western Chu? Should we act first and capture the city of Beiming Kingdom on the border of Western Chu?"

"Duan Fei is not stupid. He asked Emperor Beiming to give up this move for the time being on the grounds that he needed to prevent the Bada tribe from reneging on their promises."

"But Sima Zhaozhi, the Emperor of the Northern Ming Dynasty, is known to everyone. He has long thought about Xichu, and he is afraid that sooner or later he will declare war on Xichu. Young Master, we can't sit still and wait for death.!"

Rong Jing curled his lips into a wicked smile, and said, "There are no permanent allies, only permanent interests. Do you really think that the Bada tribe will become a vassal state of Beiming?"
