Chapter 126 Snowskin Mooncake

The little girl looked very cute when she was angry, Lu Feili smiled.

"I send you."

"No--"

Before the word 'Use' was released, Lu Feili said: "It's just right on the way."

Ji Wan couldn't say anything.

After leaving the gate, Lu Feili suddenly said, "Beidi sneaked into Dayan and assassinated you and Liumei. I will find out what happened."

Ji Wan was stunned and looked up and saw that although his appearance was light, his eyes were extremely cold. The cold and majesty of a soldier made people feel awe-inspiring and a little fear.

After thinking about it, she said, "Aren't the clues broken?"

Lu Feili smiled, "There are still shadows when the sparrows fly by, let alone people? Even if the evidence is erased, I can still pry out the truth from them."

Ji Wan stopped talking, and she could guess who the commander behind the scenes was. How could Lu Feili not know? Political party disputes have always been invisible swords and swords, and blood flowed into a river.

What should Lu Feili do?

Soon, she found out.

The next day, the four Grand Master Zhou and Grand Secretary Zhou returned home. Zhou Yan called his eldest daughter to the study and asked directly: "When you were in the north, did you have been assassinated?"

Zhou was stunned for a moment and nodded.

"yes."

Zhou Yan frowned, "You have been back for so long, why haven't you mentioned it?"

"It was Lu Sanlang who saved us at that time. He said he would deal with this matter and told us not to interfere. He also sent someone to protect us." After Zhou finished speaking, he looked at his father and tentatively said: "How could his father know about this?"

Zhou Yan said: "This morning, Lu Sanlang reported in court that he had been assassinated by a dead soldier in the north. The emperor was furious and issued an order to investigate. After the court came out of Xuanhua Palace, he found me and my father, saying that you had also been implicated. He caught the survivor and brought him back this time, and had been imprisoned in the Ministry of Justice."

Zhou was surprised.

That was all about last year. The eldest daughter also said that the dead soldier had already interrogated and explained it. Why should he be imprisoned for the Ministry of Justice?

Zhou Yan saw her doubts, but did not explain.

No matter what Lu Feili tried, it cannot be finalized. In particular, there are some things that everyone knows very well, and the emperor always asks someone to have someone interrogate them in person and deal with them as appropriate after seeing the results.

After returning, Zhou told his eldest daughter about this, and Ji Wan understood.

This is to force the other party to get out of place.

"Mom, these political affairs are not something we should care about, and we cannot interfere. He did not turn our assassination into the open, and he did not want us to be implicated again. As for how this matter develops, we can just wait for the result."

Zhou nodded.

**

On August 12th, Your Majesty appointed the third prince Yan Chengxuan as the crown prince and gave him the Eastern Palace.

The edict to enthrone the crown prince has been drafted, and now it is just a natural thing. As for the reaction between Concubine Yao and the second prince, at least it is impossible to see it on the surface.

Ji Wan didn't care about these big things, she was already selling her ice-skin mooncakes.

As the Mid-Autumn Festival approaches, mooncakes have already started selling in shops outside. She deliberately lags behind for two days and chooses to sell them for a limited time three days before the Mid-Autumn Festival, so that everyone can know that the mooncakes she makes are unique.

With the various snacks from the past as the foundation, the ice-skin mooncakes were released, and they were expected to be curious and visited by old customers.

"I've eaten so many mooncakes, but I've never heard of ice-skin mooncakes, and I don't know what's different."

"It's true that the pastries and snacks made by Ji's dim sum shop are delicious. The girls and young masters in our house like them very much and send me to buy them every day."

"That's right? Who made the Ji's dim sum shop have many varieties of pastries and snacks, and there are no other shops?"

"I also want to try out what this ice-skin mooncake tastes."

The crowd was talking, and the neck behind him stretched out and looked forward, curious about what the ice-skin mooncake looked like.

Ji Wan was in the inner hall, lifting the corner of the curtain and looking out.

After the shopkeeper came to ask her for instructions, he put out the ice-skin mooncakes he was about to taste for the customers and cut them into small pieces.

"Everyone, this is the newly launched ice-skin mooncakes from our Ji's Dim Shop. You can taste it first and then consider whether to buy it. Because the raw materials are special, ice-skin mooncakes should not be stored, and they will melt in more than an hour. If you can't finish it, you can store it with ice."

He explained to everyone first before announcing the price, "one thirty cents."

Mooncakes are also divided into different levels. The cheapest ones are less than ten cents, the expensive ones can be sold for fifteen and twenty cents, and the old signature shops can be sold for up to twenty cents. Of course, ordinary people are reluctant to eat them.

Fortunately, it is the inner city here, with powerful families everywhere, and the most important thing is money.

Thirty-word articles are a drop in the bucket for these people. Therefore, the expensive price for ordinary people is not worth mentioning in the eyes of these people.

The people in the front started to taste it with chopsticks.

"It's soft, sweet and delicious. And it's white, and the filling is different... I've never seen a white-skinned mooncake. I want thirty. No, fifty."

Fifty, that is, one thousand five hundred texts.

The first customer bought so many at one time, and the people behind him were suddenly excited. They were all amazed at the color and taste of the mooncakes, and after tasting them, they praised them even more.

Unexpectedly, everyone rushed to buy it.

The most, I bought 100 at one time.

The front is sold, and the back is also made in the kitchen. The fifteen chefs are almost too busy. Fortunately, the ice-skin mooncakes do not need to be baked, and the ingredients are prepared first, so the quantity is enough. Many people bought them once and went back, and the masters sent them to buy them for the second time after eating.

If you buy the second time, the quantity will usually be larger.

What's more, I bought it and gave it to someone.

As for storage, just lay a layer of ice under the box.

In just one morning, more than 3,000 mooncakes were sold, and more than 900 taels of silver were sold. Even Ji Wan was a little surprised by this number.

Lu Feiyan came with her, a spoiled lady, and had no idea about money. She also thought that such a delicious mooncake was too cheap for only thirty cents. But in the end she heard that she had earned a few hundred taels, and was quite surprised.

"I made so much money in one morning. If I sold it for a month, wouldn't it be tens of thousands of taels?"

“Not that exaggerated.”

Ji Wan smiled and said, "The Mid-Autumn Festival only has one day, and there are only a few days when there are many people buying mooncakes, and the business is the best. And because the quantity is large and the chefs work very hard, I only sell it in the morning. After these few days, someone wants to buy it as a snack and you have to book it. After all, this thing needs to be preserved in ice."

"Yes." Lu Feiyan thought for a while, nodded, and said, "Do you still have it here? My two sisters who don't like desserts very much like it. And my grandmother, she is old and has a bad teeth. She likes this mooncake tightly."

"Don't worry, I'll keep it for you."

Ji Wan asked someone to take the boxed ice-skin mooncakes and hand them to her.

The advent of ice-skin mooncakes has successfully caused a sensation in the mooncake industry. In just two days, 7,000 units have been sold, with sales of 2,100 taels.
