Chapter 1197: Ice candy



Yu Tong shook her head and then threw such dangerous thoughts in the back of her head. She smiled at Yu Dong and then stated, " I have relayed the message to the villagers, they are here with the stock of vegetables and I asked the butchers who submitted their applications for the job at the livestock farm, to take care of the meat stock for tomorrow."

She paused and then added, " The mers who are good at cooking are also here. They all are waiting for you, sister Dong."

"I understand," Yu Dong nodded as she stood up from the ground and then walked over to where the villagers were standing. She nodded at them when they smiled at her before turning to look at the villagers who were handing the stocks to the mammies who were collecting and relaying the correct amount of catty to Ye Liu who noted it down in a notebook that was made of many papers sewn together.

He then asked the villagers to press their thumbs on the amount of vegetables that they had sold to Yu Dong.

Seeing that everything was fine, she turned to look at the villagers and said," Continue to farm. There is no need to push yourself and farm more vegetables, just keep the amount to practical limits."

" We understand," the villagers nodded in response.

Once Yu Dong was done dealing with them she turned to the mers who came to apply for the post of cooks along with their wives who were here to apply for the position of servers of the snack store.

" The conditions are the same as before, it's best if you keep your head clear from the start. You are not allowed to leak the recipe to anyone, when you are working in the kitchen or the snack area you need to clean your hands and maintain basic hygiene. If you cannot do that then it's better to leave now, we will not withstand anyone who does not bathe regularly to apply for this post."

" Cooking for your household and cooking for the officials are two different things, you cannot treat the two things in the same way."

" Do not worry, Miss Yu," one of the mers who was standing in the front nodded and then stated, " We are here because we know all the conditions that you have set forward for the ones who are working at the snack counter at the theatre. We promise to abide by the same as well."

What a joke. The salary for a cook was two taels while the servers were given one tael. For a price like that they would jump in the river and marinate themselves in soap and water for all night.

The salary was tempting enough for them to take a bath every day!

" Thats right!" Another mer agreed. " We will make sure to be very careful, Miss Yu."

Yu Dong nodded. She turned to look at Shen Li and said, " Read the contract to them. Once they are clear on every aspect, make them sign the contract."

She then turned to look at the rest of the villagers who were being handed the receipts. Yu Dong stared at them and then said, " Keep a very good hold of those receipts. They are your evidence to prove that you have sold the vegetables to us, at the end of the month you will need to show them such that you can get your money. If you lose them then it will be troublesome."

When the villagers heard that the receipts were this important some of them immediately tied it inside their pouches. They could not allow it to be lost !

" Sister are we going to sell vegetables in the future?" Discover hidden tales at empire

Yu Dong rubbed the head of her brother and then smiled, she said, " Why? Do you want to sell something else?"

" Can we sell candies? Mai wants to eat candies anytime."

" Keep eating candies like this and your teeth will end up getting rotten," Yu Dong pinched the cheeks of her brother before turning to look at Lang Ru who seemed to be hesitating.

"What's wrong?" Was there something that this little girl wanted to tell her as well?

Lang Ru breathed in and out before she raised her head and then looked at Yu Dong. She solemnly said, " Sister Yu, can we sell something related to ice? The ice in the imperial city is sold for a tael."

In the imperial city only the families with great history knew how to make ice but Yu Dong was different. She could freeze water with the smallest touch what was more, the ice that she made did not melt!

Though Lang Ru did not know how Yu Dong did it, her mother told her that she should not question such things and keep it her secret until the end of her life. Lang Ru also knew that Yu Dong was their saviour and protector if something happened to her then their family and village would be ruined.

However she wanted to make sure that her mother would earn even more that way they could build a house in the village. Then she wouldn't have to live with the Yu family, this would be her first step to becoming the woman who could marry Yu Mai.

When Yu Dong heard Lang Ru's question she was a bit surprised. She thought about it and then replied, " We can sell ice candy."

" Ice candy? What's that?" Lang Ru questioned with a furrow of her brows. She was telling Yu Dong to sell ice but the latter seemed to have a plan even better than her.

Yu Dong nodded and then stated, " Ice candy is a kind of lollipop made from ice. You can use various flavors like orange, matcha green tea, pear or raw mango. It is really sweet and delicious. But we need to grow fruit trees for that .. or at least get our hands on a fruit plantation which can produce the right amount of fruits for our consumption."
