Fu Jingchuan figured it out and a warm smile instantly appeared on his face.

"Thank you, brother and sister-in-law, for giving me, your younger brother, the opportunity to express myself."

Upon hearing this, Fu Xuanyu and Jiang Yun couldn't help laughing.

Feng Yuan was very considerate and stepped forward to refill tea for everyone.

Fu Jingchuan also found a seat and sat down.

Fu Xuanyu picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, then looked up at Fu Jingchuan and asked, "I wonder why His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wants to see us today?"

Fu Jingchuan's smile froze, and he said, "It's nothing important. The toilets and showers sold in your furniture store are so useful that I wanted to install them in my father's and mother's palaces."

Fu Xuanyu nodded in understanding.

Seeing that Fu Xuanyu stopped talking, Fu Jingchuan couldn't help but speak again: "Brother, I heard Cheng Xi say that the furniture store can be customized. I wonder how much those customized orders are charged?"

Fu Xuanyu looked at him blankly, then shook his head and said, "I'm sorry, the furniture store has always been managed by Ayun. I'm just a hands-off manager. Your Highness the Crown Prince should ask Ayun directly about these matters."

Fu Jingchuan's face froze and he turned to look at Jiang Yun.

Jiang Yun smiled gently at him and said, "I heard that the roast goose at Zuixianju is the best. Why don't we eat first? It's not too late to discuss ordering after we've had enough. Your Highness, what do you say?"

Fu Jingchuan sighed in his heart, stretched out his hand and waved at Cheng Xi, saying: "Cheng Xi, go and serve the meal!"

Jiang Yun smiled and said, "Remember to order the roast goose I just mentioned~"

Cheng Xi nodded and said, "Yes!"

Zuixianju served the dishes very quickly. Just one stick of incense had passed since Cheng Xi returned, and all the dishes they ordered were served.

There were five of them this time, but Feng Yuan and Cheng Xi were not at the table.

So in fact, only Fu Jingchuan, Fu Xuanyu and Jiang Yun had the meal.

There were thirty-six dishes on the table.

Jiang Yun looked at the table full of delicious food and felt it was a bit of a waste.

She suddenly remembered that when she and Fu Xuanyu had meals at the Chong'an Palace, they always had four dishes, one soup, and a staple food.

And the last time he dined with the emperor in the palace, the three of them had a total of six dishes, one soup, three bowls of rice, and two desserts.

She thought that the royal family valued food very much!

Unexpectedly, Fu Jingchuan was the exception!

Fu Xuanyu looked at the table full of dishes and frowned, "Isn't this too much? Even if we add Manager Feng and Manager Cheng, I'm afraid we won't be able to finish all of this!"

Fu Jingchuan paused as he picked up the chopsticks, a hint of impatience flashing across his eyes. Then he smiled and looked up at Fu Xuanyu and said, "Brother, what you said is true. This is the status of the prince. I can't take a dish more than three times. This is the rule left by our ancestors. Brother, sister-in-law, these dishes are the signature dishes of Zuixianju. Come and try them together."

"But since our father ascended the throne, this rule has been abandoned. He taught us to cherish food since we were young. There are still many people in our Qifeng Kingdom who don't have enough to eat!"

"Yes! Big brother is right! This prince will always keep our father's teachings in mind. Don't worry, we will not waste anything today. I will ask Cheng Xi to bring back the leftovers for my concubines to taste."

This was said in a very perfunctory manner.

Fu Xuanyu sighed, then picked up his chopsticks and picked up the dish of fried shrimp and lettuce that was closest to him.

Seeing this, Jiang Yun also picked up the chopsticks, picked up a piece of neatly sliced ​​goose meat, and put it into her mouth.

The taste is indeed good, but given the price, it's just okay.

After the three of them had dinner, there were still a lot of leftovers on the table, some of which had not even been touched.

Fu Jingchuan winked at Cheng Xi.

Cheng Xi immediately called the waiter to pack up all the leftovers, and pretended to carry them out of the room, saying that he would put them on the carriage first.

But Jiang Yun heard it clearly. As soon as Cheng Xi left the room, he took the food box to the backyard and poured all the leftovers into the slop bucket...

Jiang Yun took a deep breath and suppressed the depression in his heart.

She thought to herself that sooner or later, she would starve Fu Jingchuan and the group of people around him!

Let them clearly understand how precious food is!

Fu Jingchuan looked at Jiang Yun with a smile and asked, "Sister-in-law, can we talk about the order now?"

Jiang Yun nodded and said, "Sure. I wonder what kind of item Your Highness would like to order? We have items made of ceramic, iron, copper, sandalwood, silver, and gold."

"This prince wants to order a set of pure gold for my father, with dragon patterns carved on it. I also want to order a set of pure gold for my mother, with phoenix patterns carved on hers. What do you think, sister-in-law?"

Jiang Yun nodded and said, "I think it's very good. But pure gold is also the most expensive."

Fu Jingchuan glanced at Fu Xuanyu and Jiang Yun, and said with a smile: "This is a gift for the emperor and the queen. Shouldn't the elder brother and sister-in-law express their gratitude?"

Upon hearing this, Fu Xuanyu looked up and asked, "How does His Royal Highness want us to express our opinion?"

Fu Jingchuan chuckled and said, "How about we each pay half of the cost of this custom-made product?"

Jiang Yun's lips curled up into a cold smile, and she leaned back in the chair behind her. "Your Highness, please don't rush to share the expenses. Why don't you listen to my price first?"

Fu Jingchuan looked at her, "How much is the price?"

"The price of one set is 25,000 taels of gold. If His Royal Highness wants to order two sets, it will cost 50,000 taels of gold."

"How much?!" Fu Jingchuan stood up in shock, then asked loudly: "Fifty thousand taels of gold, sister-in-law, why don't you go and rob it?"

Jiang Yun spread his hands and said, "So, while it's a good thing that Your Highness is filial, it also depends on the actual situation. Besides, if we really spent 50,000 taels of gold to make two sets of bathroom utensils for Father and Mother, do you think Father and Mother would be happy?"

Fu Xuanyu chimed in, "Father has always been a man of frugality. If he knew we used fifty thousand taels of gold to make these things, he would definitely scold us! And then he would melt the gold back into ingots and deposit them in the national treasury."

Jiang Yun smiled and said, "Instead of asking Father to go through so much trouble, Your Highness the Crown Prince should just prepare a gold ingot worth 50,000 taels and give it to Father. I believe that Father would be happier to see this than a golden toilet or a golden shower head!"

Fu Xuanyu nodded.

Fu Jingchuan...

He thought carefully about his father's behavior in his mind, and it seemed that it would be just as his elder brother and sister-in-law said.

But he really liked the toilet and shower, and he really wanted to give them to his father and mother.
