Farm Girl Turns Everything Around: Sly Husband, Let's Farm

Chapter 984: Chapter 984: Eat Frugally_1 Chapter 984: Chapter 984: Eat Frugally_1 Three hundred sets, and just in Capital City, there are nearly thirty aristocratic families of all sizes. Since they are aristocratic families, when you add up all the legitimate and collateral relatives, there are at least a hundred people—this lady, that lord, this young master, that young miss. Even just one set for each household certainly won’t be enough.

Apart from the aristocratic families, Capital City also has those high officials—most of Daqi’s highest officials gather here, adding up to several dozen. These officials have many in their households too, including lords, ladies, young masters, and young misses.

Then there are the wealthy folks. Half of Daqi’s rich are in Capital City, and these people also want to keep up with the latest trends. Moreover, such entertaining and novel items are perfect for giving as gifts, whether to curry favor with nobles or to impress friends and relatives.

How could one set be enough? At the very least, you’d need ten sets or more!

Under such circumstances, the three hundred sets of Mahjong Yu Ang had made to order were sold out in less than a week.

After they were sold out, many people came by Jiwei Residence daily to inquire if there were any left; they wanted to buy.

These were either people who previously didn’t want to spend the money, those who got the news too late, or those who wanted to buy several more sets—in any case, all were genuine in their intent to purchase.

The reputation of Jiwei Residence is well established here, and the entire nobility, including Emperor Yongan and the Empress Dowager, use products from here; everyone knows that these items are from Jiwei Residence. If they were to make them themselves privately, it would seem like a step down!

It must be said that Yu Ang played a smart move this time, using the brand of Jiwei Residence to significantly extend this one-time business deal.

In the future, even if imitations appear, at the very least the noble class will not use counterfeit goods.

Thus, Jiwei Residence will be able to earn quite a bit more.

After hearing what his mother said, Yang Hao couldn’t help but laugh, “That’s good; earning a bit more silver, and Qiao Xiaomai will be able to repair the road sooner. I felt like my bones would fall apart from all the jolting on the journey back.”

“It must have been tough for Yeye to travel on such roads for months,” he sympathized.

Emperor Yongan had already heard about the agreement, and considering the great benefit it offered the Yang Family, he said, “It has indeed been hard on Yeye. When he returns, I shall properly compensate him.”

Upon hearing this, Yang Hao laughed and said, “The pigs, sheep, and chickens raised by Qiao Xiaomai and her husband are not bad. I sent some to him before, which should satisfy his palate. This time, I’ve also brought back a little with me and have already handed it over to the Imperial Kitchen. We’ll all have a taste when they’re ready tomorrow.”

“They’re truly delicious.”

Yang Hao said, turning to pinch Yang Zheng’s cheek, “And for you, little foodie, to feast to your heart’s content.”

Yang Zheng’s eyes sparkled with curiosity, “How delicious is it?”

“Both I and Grandpa Emperor say it’s delicious.”

“Then it must be very delicious. Let’s have some tonight~” Yang Zheng pleaded as he clung to Yang Hao’s neck, coquettishly wriggling.

“I’ve already had someone prepare chicken and eggs. Preparing pork and lamb takes longer, so we’ll wait until tomorrow. Plus, the couple doesn’t raise many animals, so I only brought back two chickens, a pig, and a sheep. We should use them sparingly.”

Laughing at his words, everyone present, Yao Xian gave him a playful glance, “What a good thing it must be for you to be so frugal about it.”

“Indeed, that does seem rather exaggerated,” Emperor Yongan nodded in agreement.

“Your Highness, please tell us just how good Qiao Xiaomai’s cooking skills are,” Feng Huihui also asked with a smile.

“You’ll know once you’ve tried it. Grandpa Emperor didn’t even want to come back,” Yang Hao commented.

“Is it really that delicious?” Yang Zheng asked. “The Imperial Kitchen recently got a new chef whose cooking is quite delicious too.”
