306. Zongzi

"On the map of Zheng Gong's ship, there are cannons, and there are no guns at that time, he can actually know. Mingyue even compared with her hand, these books are not easy to obtain, and I still saw a few in Wu Qianhu's house.

Zheng Hou's books are all stored in the palace, the founding of the country for a hundred years, he has known since a hundred years ago that there will be firecrackers and cannons in future generations, and they can also be used on ships, some are long and short, some are finely painted, and there are a few sketches to talk about, lamenting that they can't be made in a hundred years.

Now everything is made from his catalog, and there is still Zhenggong Temple in Shudi here, and it is really not in vain that he has received incense, and his things are still useful in the past hundred years.

Zheng Gong can know that it is the star in the sky, the number one person in Lingyun Pavilion, but Shi Gui can also guess it with a few words, then it is rare, Mingyue stared at her and couldn't stop looking, Shi Gui looked at him with admiration on his face, his eyes were round, and he suddenly laughed, the streamer of the hat trembled, and Mingyue has always been straightforward when he talks, and he doesn't have to pretend to use other people's mouths, and said bluntly: "What I read in the book, what I think at home, it turns out that there is a god camp in the east of the city." ”

The guns of the Shenji Battalion were said to be built as early as the founding of the country, and they did have firecrackers, and they were not as good as arrows to send far, but the power of gunpowder was different, although the ancestral system could not be revoked, but there was no military spending, and it was the same as the Yamen of the empty gate, and it was only in the sage that military funds were allocated to research and development.

Mingyue scratched her head: "If only I had a map of the sea area, I could show you some pointers, if I don't come to Suizhou, I won't know that there are so many countries and islands outside." ”

Good sea maps are extremely expensive, and the imperial court sent people to the sea several times, so they took the painters who drew the sea charts to repeatedly compare the original ones, and record those that were not painted in the past.

The more accurate and detailed the drawing, the more rare it is, Shi Gui heard him say the sea map, and thought that there seemed to be one in Ye Wenxin's study, she bought it to see where Yan and everyone had been, if she could extend one, she could give it to Mingyue.

The chart is extremely expensive, and it is not something that can be bought for ten taels or eight, Mingyue has helped her so much, and she should give him a gift in return, and she will not say anything, but said: "When the restaurant makes money, you can naturally buy the chart." ”

Mingyue nodded, Shi Gui told him in detail how Ercheng was divided, and he waved his hand: "I'm impatient to listen to this, you can still tell me that I can't do it, when the time comes, you can save it for me first, I want to use it, and then ask you to take it." ”

Mingyue didn't have to break up with Senior Brother Sun if he didn't break up the account with Senior Brother Sun, he couldn't save so much, he was always the master who used the money, but here

There was no place to spend money in the barracks, and when she heard Shi Gui say that she would also buy a house in the future, she was even happier: "Either we can be neighbors together, if you steal in your house, just shout, and I will come over the wall immediately." ”

Shi Gui teased him seriously: "I want to raise a vicious dog, which thief dares to come to the door, you haven't climbed off the wall yet......" I wanted to bite his leg, but I knew that Mingyue was proud: "That's not possible, I come every day, how can I not know me." ”

Shi Gui clearly wanted to laugh, but she couldn't help blushing slightly, she felt that this was also very good, she didn't want to get married before the age of twenty, but she didn't know if Mingyue would wait for her.

After the dock street, go further and even a piece of silk embroidery workshop, silkworm time has passed, every family is reeling silk, the water for boiling silk can not be cold, always roll away, feet just step in, I feel hotter than other places, Mingyue has not spent the summer in Suizhou, but told sΓΉ Shi Gui: "I heard the veterans in the camp say that every year it will be hot and faint, if you really go to the shipyard to do business, mung bean soup and five-flower herbal tea must be prepared." ”

The summer in Jinling is also very hot, there is no wind, Suizhou is close to the sea, there is always some rain and wind, Shi Gui nodded: "I will drink every day now, otherwise my mouth will be foaming." ”

How can I not be anxious when I am busy with the things of the restaurant, I will bubble for a long time when I am in a hurry, or Ah Zhen fried herbal tea, Qiu Niang saw that she really didn't love these, so she bought mung bean lily to cook soup for her to drink, which put down her anger.

Now I boiled mung bean water, and I didn't have to boil it until the beans were crispy, so I poured the water out and drank it as tea, and brought a big pot to Xizi every day to prevent him from getting too hot in school.

"Can't you get on the fire?" Speaking of this, Shi Gui turned his head sideways and asked him, Mingyue blushed all of a sudden, and he was the hottest person in the camp, but he couldn't say this to Shi Gui, squeaked for a long time, and then said: "There is also herbal tea to drink in the camp, and the practice has been hard these days, and it has been continuous every day." ”

I didn't dare to say that when I met Shi Gui the day before, I would have a nosebleed when I went back, and those who begged for a daughter-in-law in the camp all made fun of him, saying that he was thinking about a woman.

"When you get to the pharmacy, I'll buy you some medicinal oil, you can't do it like this every day, you have to make people unconscious, but you wipe some on both foreheads, you have to remember to drink herbal tea, don't practice too weekdays, you can't perform martial arts if you strain." "Mingyue is only seventeen, and it's really strained.

"There is a doctor in the camp, and he is asked to press when he is injured on weekdays, and his skills are excellent, and he doesn't have to buy medicinal oil outside. Mingyue was not polite, Shi Gui also nodded, and he got it in one night with leggings, and he still told him not to go too far.

Mingyue smiled, ordinary words seemed unusual, Shi Gui pursed his lips and didn't look at him, and nodded at the bungalow in front of him: "This is the printing factory." ”

There are many female workers in the printing factory, male engraving, female workers brush ink, this work is meticulous, a piece of paper has to be aligned to print correctly, there are a few people who can read and write, it is easier to do this work.

The little steward took Shi Gui Mingyue to the engraving room, Shi Gui took out the paper, and the man looked at it and said: "One word is fifty yuan, ten words will spare you ten yuan, you can count it yourself." ”

Advertising list on the addition and subtraction, at least have to engrave forty words, a total of two taels of silver, to add more numbers, how to get two two five silver, if there is a note in the middle of the list, then it is more expensive, zero zero finally a time, two two eight dollars and half a penny can not be less.

Shi Gui paid a fixed amount of silver first, and she also knew that the business of the printing factory was easy to do, and the commonly used words in it were all freshly engraved, but she could use it again if she took it out, but after paying the money, she gave the written words to the little steward: "Since it is now engraved, I have to ask for such words." ”

The words have to be written differently from others, so that the difference can be seen at a glance, otherwise those who don't know how to read will only be regarded as a list of needlework shops and pollen shops, which is too common but not eye-catching.

The little steward took the words and looked at it: "This is also easy, we used to do it, the girl likes this and uses this, only the corners and corners of this side are round, and it is not very good to print it." ”

When Ye Wenxin was studying, a pen practiced all kinds of fonts, Shi Gui showed her the list of finished books, she changed a word to write, Shi Gui never thought about it, this time she woke up, Shi Ji bamboo tube rice a few words bolded and printed, next to it with thin characters, although not printed in color, it is almost the same.

Shi Gui said it ordinarily, but Mingyue hadn't seen it, seeing that she was pointing the same thing, the steward looked her up and down, nodded and agreed, and agreed to carve it out for her in two days.

The two of them also ate ashes in the printing factory, and when they came out, it was not early, and Mingyue had to go back to the barracks, Shi Gui took him to the pharmacy and bought a few plasters, so that he felt sore after practicing and pasted them on his body.

The medicated oil and plaster were packed in a pack, and they were all brought back to Mingyue: "You have invested in the shares today, and when you come back, I will write you a contract, you should eat and drink, and you can't catch up, when will you come back next time, I will wait for you with wine." In addition to medicine and food, I bought steamed buns for roast meat in the bun shop, and filled him with ten in a cloth pocket for him to take home.

Mingyue sent her all the way to the door, and then left in a hurry, when Shi Gui arrived home, Qiu Niang had not yet finished working, Ye Wenxin came home, Shi Gui took the soup and sent it to the study, and put it on the table for her: "Mrs. Ji said last time that she wanted to see me, do you still want to count?"

Ye Wenxin looked up at her from the book: "Naturally, I'm going to go tomorrow, if you are free, follow along, Mrs. Ji has already mentioned you several times, and they are all praising you, saying that you can stand up to the door, it is really not easy." ”

Shi Gui let go of half of his heart, he was afraid that she would say it casually, but she took it seriously, and it was not annoying to go to the door, thinking that she had to bring some courtesy to the door, and asked Ah Zhen to make local vegetable dumplings.

Mingyue became a shareholder, Shi Gui had a lot more money in his hands, Ah Zhen bought pork and mushroom duck meat, and bought good glutinous rice, the local palm leaves were narrow, and the zongzi were wrapped in small size, Shi Gui also bought some salted eggs, peeled off and dug out the salted egg yolk one by one.

Ah Zhen watched her peel the salted egg yolk, and felt weird, seeing her wrapped in rice dumplings, she didn't know what to say, Shi Gui just smiled at her and told her that this thing was delicious.

Ah Zhen just didn't believe it, Shi Gui didn't realize that no one was doing this at this time, I don't know if I can make this salted egg pork into bamboo rice, make a note of this, go back and calculate the cost, and see how much I can earn from this.

Really waited for the zongzi to be wrapped out, went to the pot to steam, the oil of the egg yolk and the juice of the pork were soaked in the rice, Shi Gui peeled one for Ah Zhen, Ah Zhen took a bite of the egg yolk and chewed it with rice grains, her face was full of smiles, she nodded at Shi Gui, and ate the whole one, before pulling Shi Gui, the two of them even guessed, Shi Gui understood what Ah Zhen meant for a long time, and she wanted to follow to the restaurant to help.

Shi Gui laughed, ordered a little bit of the main house, took a porcelain plate and filled three zongzi, and when he sent them to the study, Song Yintang was also there, he went to Xiren Street one day, and actually copied some of the Westerners' words and showed them to Ye Wenxin.

Ye Wenxin saw the zongzi, and then he suddenly forgot about the day, he didn't think that it would be the Dragon Boat Festival in a few days, and he should have a festival, but he didn't think about it, but he didn't think about it, but the female school, took a half-day class, cut the bean lady and wore five poisons, and gave these girls a decent Dragon Boat Festival.

Because it was wrapped in Shi Gui, I ate half of it, and when I bit it open, I smiled: "I said that you have a fate with Mrs. Ji, except for her family, you don't eat a snack and use salted egg yolk in your heart." ”

Shi Gui was stunned, and Ye Wenxin said: "The egg yolk crisp of the Ji family is famous, and there is always such a box when you take it out as a gift, last time I ate it at Ji's house, and it was okay to make puff pastry, you actually took this wrapped zongzi, and the girls said that Mrs. Ji likes it, and you are really right." ”
