Qiao Yi

Chapter 103, Part 2

When they came out of the palace and returned to Ming Palace, the rewards from the palace also arrived, but they were some things that the emperor routinely rewarded, including silk, satin, jewellery, porcelain and bronze wares, and five hundred gold.

Tsk tsk, the emperor is really stingy, just rewarding such a little thing?

Qiao Yi slandered the emperor for being stingy in his heart. All the things that were rewarded by the palace were stamped with the seal of the palace. They were things that were bestowed by the emperor and could not be sold for money. Apart from being piled up in the warehouse to accumulate dust and take up space, they were useless at all.

Fortunately, the emperor rewarded 500 taels of gold, and seeing the chubby gold ingots in the box, he liked it no matter what he saw.Why can't all these rewards be exchanged for gold or silver?Qiao Yi reached out to touch the gold ingots in the box, waved his hand, and said, "Put them away."

"Yes." Steward Cui ordered the people to put away the things.

The 500 taels of gold can be regarded as making up for the expenses of their Ming Palace this time.

Buying cloth and tailoring clothes, hiring people, etc., which one does not cost money?Qiao Yi almost didn't have a heart attack when he saw a thick stack of expense lists just now.But they can't take advantage of the plague to make a lot of money, can they?So this is a loss-making business, not a profitable business.

If you are not in charge, you don't know the daily necessities!There are so many people in the palace to support, and the monthly expenditure is a huge amount. With their prince's salary, they really can't afford to support so many mouths in the palace.Fortunately, the emperor rewarded them with so many things this time, otherwise they would have lost their fortune after doing a good deed.It seems that in the future, good deeds must be weighed and prudent.

How could he have half of the five hundred gold?Qiao Yi's thoughts turned around, and he made some small calculations. It happened that he wanted to open a medical clinic in the capital, so he had the capital.

The pavement here in the capital should not be cheap, right?Even if she hadn't gone out to find out about the market, Qiao Yi knew that the land price in the capital would not be cheap, so she was thinking about going outside to see if there was a shop in a good location, and set it up as a medical clinic.

Taking advantage of the afternoon, Qiao Yi flipped through the pile of bills in the study, and after reading the thick pile of bills, his mind ached.

The numbers on the bill are all recorded in words. The characters of this era are somewhat similar to the traditional Chinese characters of later generations, and he can understand most of them.Thanks to the traditional Chinese characters that the old man taught him since he was a child, these characters don't look difficult to him.

Presumably the Arabic numerals have not been passed on yet. Wouldn't it be easier to see if accounts could be kept in Arabic numerals?In order to make it easier for him to read the accounts in the future, Qiao Yi asked someone to call the accountant over, and spent half an hour explaining to the accountant the Arabic numerals and how to use them.

Hearing that their concubine sent him over, Mr. Accountant was still a little uneasy, thinking that something happened to him, and the concubine sent someone to go to him.

Unexpectedly, Wang Hao asked him to come here because she told him a set of figures. Mr. Accountant is an accountant, and he is very sensitive to the method and usage of accounts.When the accountant heard that the Arabic numerals were much better for keeping accounts than they used to, he shouted: "Wonderful! Wonderful!"

Simply wonderful!

"I have only one request. From now on, you will keep accounts in the same way as I just said." Qiao Yi only had one request, and said, "If you don't understand anything, just ask me." I also wrote out a set of formulas for addition and subtraction and multiplication and division to the accountant, and the rest was left to the accountant to ponder and study.

The accountant was holding the set of things given by their prince, and his steps were floating when he left.

At this time, Qiao Yi didn't know that the set of algorithms he wrote had been presented to their lord's desk in the next moment.Xie Yin finished reading the set of arithmetic methods written by his little princess, his eyes flickered, and he asked, "Is this really written by him?"

"Back to the lord, it is indeed the concubine who asked the accountant to go over today, and wrote to the accountant herself." Cui said. "Well, I know, Mr. Fang Jing, take a look." Xie Yin casually handed the two pieces of paper to the counselor at hand.

The counselor took it with both hands, and looked down at the arithmetic method in his hand. The more he looked at it, the better he felt, and he wanted to clap his legs to applaud. Mr. Fang Jing suppressed the excitement in his heart, and said to the master: "My lord, this algorithm seems simple, and a three-year-old child can't do it." It can be learned. However, it is not that simple to explore in depth, which is a great benefit, and if this algorithm can be popularized, it will be of great benefit.”

"Take it back and have a look first." As for popularization, there is no rush for now.

"Yes." Fang Jing held two pieces of paper and walked away with the same footsteps as Mr. Accountant.

When Mr. Fang passed in front of him, Zhang Jiu glanced at the two pieces of paper in Mr. Fang's hand, and didn't feel much.Looking at their lord's expression of deep thought, he thought he was thinking about their little concubine.

"It seems that this little princess of this king still hides a lot of things that this king doesn't know about." King Ming suddenly laughed. At the beginning, he thought that the little princess he married was just someone who didn't understand anything. My little bastard, I didn't expect his little princess to give him so many surprises.

His little princess gave him a feeling that if he continued to dig, his little princess would continue to give him more surprises, which really made people look forward to it.

"Well, indeed." Zhang Jiu agreed, just like this time to cure the plague, if it weren't for the methods proposed by their princess, more people would die in this city.Zhang Jiu asked: "Master, what you said the princess understands, did you really learn it from that expert?"

Otherwise, where did their little princess learn it from?

"Didn't you investigate it back then?" King Ming looked at his subordinates and asked.

"..." Zhang Jiu, it was indeed him, he couldn't say anything, and he confessed: "It seems that the investigation is not comprehensive enough, the younger one will take someone to investigate again."

"No need." Xie Yin said.

Your lord, is what you said true?Well, since you said no need, then don't check, Zhang Jiu said "yes".Seeing that their lord didn't have any orders here, they went down, turned around and went to the small courtyard where their princess lived, and smelled a smell of meat before they got close.

As soon as it floated over, Zhang Jiu saw lying on the wall, on the tree, on the rockery...

People hiding everywhere stared at the yard where their princess lived. To be precise, it was the small kitchen under the yard, where meat was being cooked.This smell is really so that people three miles away can smell the smell of meat, because it is so fragrant.

Qiao Yi lifted the lid of the casserole, and as soon as the lid was lifted, the smell of meat in the whole yard became more intense, and the circle of people lying outside couldn't help but hold back their saliva.Of course he knew that there were a lot of people lying around outside, all of them were attracted by his pot of meat.

Using chopsticks to test the tenderness of the meat in the pot, he glanced at the people around him, all staring at the people who were drooling in the pot, Qiao Yi smiled happily and asked, "Does it taste good?" ?”

"Sweet!" Chu Liu swallowed heavily, the Dongpo pork their young master made was really delicious.Ever since he ate it once, he has dreamed about this taste in his dreams, and he doesn't know how their young master made it. Only their young master makes this meat that is particularly delicious, and no one else can make this taste.

Dongpo pork is being stewed in the pot. The soft and delicious Dongpo pork is Qiao Yi's favorite. He doesn't know how to cook many dishes, and Dongpo pork is one of them.

It's just that the procedure of making this meat is too complicated, and the spices are not easy to buy, so he has made it once or twice before, until today when he suddenly wanted to eat it, he asked someone to buy meat and spices.There is a small kitchen specially set up in the small courtyard where he lives, which is convenient for them to cook a small stove, and they can order their subordinates to cook what they want to eat.

He remembers that when he was young, when his grandma was still alive, his grandpa loved to eat this dish, and his grandma took great pains to learn it from the cook at home, and he learned it by helping his grandma.After grandma passed away, he came to cook this dish for the old man, but the old man always disliked his cooking, saying that his cooking was not as good as his grandma's.

Indeed, the taste in the memory can only be in the memory, and with the departure of that person, it will never be found again.

Smelling the familiar smell, thinking of some people and things in the past.The dead are gone, those people will never come back...

Qiao Yi put away the slight sadness in her heart, and focused on the meat in the pot.

The child sucked his saliva and stared at the meat in the pot.

"It's ready to eat, find a small bowl to put it in yourself." Qiao Yi put the lid back on, he made a lot of it specially, just so that everyone can taste a piece.But those outside, he really didn't know how many people were there.

"Oh, it seems that I came at the right time. Young master, please give me a piece." Zhang Jiu stepped into the small kitchen, just in time to hear what their little princess said.

"..." Qiao Yi, you've already said that, how can I still refuse? "Okay, there are quite a few more, eat whatever you want." He asked someone to put a plate on a plate for him, and he also asked someone to put a bowl for their prince.

The rest will be left here for everyone to share, and the group outside...

"Then thank you, young master." Zhang Jiu smiled, not polite at all.

"What is this?" Xie Yin saw a bowl of meat, a bowl of rice, and two side dishes on the table. The smell of this bowl of meat was particularly delicious.Butler Cui said with a smile: "It was brought to you by someone from Wangfei, who said that Wangfei cooked it herself."

Xie Yin raised his eyebrows, he didn't know that his little princess could cook.

This meat smells good, but how does it taste?Picking up a piece of meat with the chopsticks, after only one bite, His Highness Prince Ming raised his brows, it was really good.

And in the small kitchen, a group of people almost didn't fight because of a pot of meat. There are many people with less meat, so it would be nice if everyone could taste a bite.When the meat in the pot was finished, the group of people ate three big bowls of rice with the soup in the pot. It was a pity that there was no soup in the end...

cry. (T__D)〇!

"How is your body feeling recently?" Qiao Yi retracted the hand that was attached to the man's heart, and Qiao Yi signaled Xie Yin to put on his clothes.

asked.

He was not in the palace during this time, the two of them were busy with their respective affairs, and they didn't even have much time to meet each other. Every time they met each other in a hurry, they left after saying a few words, so he had been useless for a while The ability is to go to Xie Yin to suppress the body.

But fortunately, in the past six months, he had nursed Xie Yin's body for half a year, and the medicine he prescribed was used correctly, and the effect was good, so the thing in the man's body was honest for a while, and during this time, he didn't How did it change.

"It's okay." Xie Yin took the clothes and put them on, picked up the belt and tied them on.

"Well, it seems that I have taken good care of you in the past six months. I will change the prescription for you in two days. You are mainly taking care of yourself now. When your body is well taken care of..." His ability is also the same. After upgrading, when the time comes to remove the thing on the man's body, the damage to the host will be reduced, and the chance of success will be greater.

"Knock Knock-"

Qiao Yi was about to speak when she heard a knock on the door.

Who will be knocking at the door at this time?Just now he had ordered the people outside the door to rest, and he never left anyone outside to keep watch at night.Hearing the knock on the door, Qiao Yi felt a little puzzled, so she walked over to open the door anyway.

As soon as he opened the door, he looked down and saw a little boy holding his own pillow in his arms, with a quilt dragging by his feet.The little boy was looking up at him, with tears in his big eyes, looking pitiful.

His Highness King Ming, who was only wearing obscene clothes, came from behind and looked at the big and small people at the door.

"Why don't you sleep in the house, what are you doing here?" Qiao Yi looked down at the little boy and asked.

The little boy didn't speak, he took a step forward, wrapped his arms around his legs, and didn't care if the little pillow in his arms fell to the ground.Hearing the voice behind him, Qiao Yi turned his head, and saw Xie Yin standing behind him at some point, looking at the two of them with an unkind expression, "Hehe..." He gave a dry laugh.

The child is afraid of the dark, so he ran to him in the middle of the night?

So what is he going to do now?Is it time to let the big one in the house go?Leave the small one?Qiao Yi looked at His Highness Prince Ming who was sitting on his bed, this one was obviously unwilling to leave.

Obviously this one has his own yard, why doesn't he go back to sleep in his own place?Running here every day to snatch his bed and squeeze him outside to sleep in a small bed?What the hell is going on.Didn't they agree that they would each have their own rooms and sleep in their own beds? Why does this person have to sleep in his own room and his bed all the time?Could it be... This person is interested in him?

Qiao Yi stretched out his hand and scratched his head, his eyes shot back and forth on their lord's body, well, the figure is not bad, how does it feel to touch?Oh, no, he has touched it many times, and it really feels good.
