Chapter 635: Best

When Zeng Anxin finished all this, she saw that her father and eldest brother were still lurking, so she took Song Xiaoyue and walked in other directions, she wanted to take a closer look at this valley to see if there were other surprises. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

"This, this is wild tea?" It really lived up to the emperor's wishes, and on the other side of the valley was about to reach the peak, surrounded by white clouds, and on the steep cliff wall, there were wild tea plants growing one after another.

"Squeak squeak" Song Xiaoyue immediately climbed up happily, and after a while, he actually came down with a Ganoderma lucidum in his mouth, looking at the growth degree of Ganoderma lucidum, at least a hundred years.

"Oh, why did you pick it, just stay there and come back when you need it. Zeng Anxin looked at the lines on it, in another ten years, it would be two hundred years, it was a pity, you must know that even if it is only ten years away, the effect of the medicine will be greatly reduced.

Song Xiaoyue happily pointed to the steep mountain wall above, to the effect that there are many more behind it, and this is for the master, and it has decided to move here with all its clans.

Zeng Anxin followed the strange stones on the cliff, hung the roots of wild tea, and climbed over, I didn't believe it, Ganoderma lucidum is not a mushroom, it is impossible to have a large piece of life.

As a result, when she saw it, she was really surprised and startled, which made her feel unreal, as if this Lingzhi had also become common.

"Since there is still one, then this one will stay, and when the mother gives birth to a little brother, it will be left for the mother to make up for the body. ā€

These spiritual teas have reached the time of picking, if they are picked after a while, they will get old, and the taste will be much worse, Zeng Anxin simply tied his waist with a rope, and let Song Xiaoyue hang himself to the tree, so that it was almost like a trapeze, and finally picked all those wild teas.

Although there were only seven or eight plants, she also picked nearly half a basket, and in the end, she also moved a wild tea plant into the space, so that if she wanted to drink wild tea in the future, she didn't have to come here to pick it.

If someone asks, there is wild tea here, and it can be regarded as a famous teacher.

One person and one animal, continue to explore along the peak in other directions, and it turns out that this valley is really a treasure house, all kinds of genius treasures, abound, looking at this dazzling array of precious Chinese herbs, many of which are old, I don't know what kind of love the second brother Zeng will be when he sees it.

The trip was really worth it, and when they came down the mountain, it was a full load. When Mrs. Zhang saw the bison like a small mountain, a deer, a few roe deer, a bunch of wild tea, and a basket of fresh mountain mushrooms and wild mushrooms, she couldn't close her mouth with joy.

"Ouch, this bison is also hunted in the mountains? This must be at least seven or eight hundred pounds, right?"

Zeng Gaoda replied while washing his hands: "Grandma guessed right, this is still a calf, if it is an adult bison, it will be at least 1,500 catties." ā€

Mrs. Zhang was a little distressed and said: "It's just that this beef is something eaten by nobles, our farmer, but we protect the cow as a treasure, is it really good for you to eat it like this?"

"Grandma, don't you see, there are at least two or three hundred adult bison in the valley, and there are hundreds of calves, and there are many of them. That's what I plan, we'll keep one hundred and fifty pounds for our own family, and send the rest to the big restaurant in the town. ā€

Mrs. Zhang also knew that her daughter's family was now in dire need of silver, so she hurriedly said: "There are only a few people in your family, and you still have to eat more than 100 catties of beef? Didn't you say that there are still many heads, and then it will be the same if you hunt and eat them again, or sell them all? Raise enough money as soon as possible, and invite someone to open the mountain." ā€

Zeng Youqu knew that his mother-in-law felt sorry for his family, so he smiled and said: "Don't worry, peace of mind on the road just now, I told me, we killed the cow today, and tomorrow, we will take the black tiger and the father, as well as the eldest brother and sister-in-law, and call the people in the village, the big guys will eat together, it will cost about fifty catties of beef, and the remaining one hundred catties will be all made into beef jerky. ā€

"Ouch, I said friend, you really don't know how expensive firewood, rice, oil and salt are, my youngest son is now an apprentice in a restaurant in the town, I heard that in this big restaurant, beef is expensive, ordinary people can't afford to eat, you are good, and you have to call the whole village to eat, you are too generous." ā€

Zeng You smiled innocently: "Yesterday, the county Yalai people bullied our family with peace of mind, fortunately, everyone spoke up, besides, the next development of Qingyu Mountain, it is estimated that the people in the village will also help each other, anyway, they are all from one village, so much care." ā€

Mrs. Zhang saw that she couldn't make sense of her son-in-law, and she knew that he was a person who was used to being lavish and big, but the more she looked at the beef, the more distressed she became, so she frowned and said: "Your father and I have never eaten beef in our lives, and we are alive and healthy, otherwise you cut 20 catties and invite the people in the village to eat, and you keep 20 catties of snacks at home, and sell all the rest." ā€

The old lady said this, and obviously for their sake, Zhang and Zeng Youqu glanced at each other, a little helpless, at this time, only Zeng Anxin was young, so he stepped forward to talk coquettishly.

Zeng Anxin immediately told Mrs. Zhang all the rich products they saw in the valley, and said that as long as it took a certain amount of time, their family wanted to live a good life, it was a good problem, and there was really no need to worry about it like this.

"Those beef, but I, as a granddaughter, honor my grandfather, can't my grandmother stop it? Okay, grandma, I know that you are thinking about us, but yes, there is no need at all, people live for a lifetime, and the peace of mind is the most important. Although our family is still a little poor, isn't it the best thing for a family to be together, everyone is healthy, and there is food and drink?"

This is true, but Mrs. Zhang thinks long-term, her daughter's family has no land, and now she lives in this thatched house, and the two sons in the family have reached the age of saying that they are married, what should you do if you don't save some money?

Don't look at it as spring now, summer is coming in a blink of an eye, autumn is over, and when winter comes, the animals in the mountains and forests are hibernating, where will you go to hunt when the time comes?

Mrs. Zhang thought about it again, but now that the three children of her daughter's family are promising, the eldest has quit gambling, and the second child is about to get the qualification certificate of sitting doctor, and she is even more sensible and sensible.

What the son-in-law said is also reasonable, Zhangjiazhai is too far away from here, it is not easy for her to come here, most of the time, she still needs to rely on the help of the people in the village, and she should have a good relationship with everyone.

It's just more than a hundred catties of beef, and she still feels a little distressed when she thinks about it.

"Youqu is the head of the family, since I have said so, I don't want to say anything more, it's just that Cui Niang is not in good health, and she is young at peace of mind, and now the field work is a busy time, and you can't keep calling He to come over to help." I see, wouldn't it be better to cut the raw meat directly and give it to the villagers, and let them eat it themselves? Otherwise, your family will have to pay for manpower and other things, and won't it be a loss?"

The old lady's consideration also makes sense, if you call people to come over to eat beef, there can't be only one or two dishes on the table, the whole village will come over, and there will be more than a dozen tables.

Zeng Youqu saw that his mother-in-law's face was a little obscure, and he hurriedly took a step back: "It's still the mother-in-law who thinks about it thoroughly, and the son-in-law only thinks about being a person, but he hasn't considered these details." ā€

The old lady's face looked better, Zeng Anxin immediately coquettished again, and immediately spoke to his father: "Of course, there is a saying among the people, there is an old man in the family, if there is a treasure, grandma is not the treasure of our family." ā€

Mrs. Zhang pinched Zeng An's cute little face, and immediately became happy, "This child, his mouth is like smeared with honey." ā€

Since it is said that raw meat is sent, the big guy has to calculate how to send it.

Zeng Gaoda suddenly said loudly: "Just now my grandmother said that these beef are things that only nobles can afford, and the price must not be cheap, so we might as well invite the village chief and listen to his ideas." Or give him the meat together, and distribute it among him, and it will not cause any more or less. ā€

Zeng Youqu felt that the eldest son's idea was good, so even if he let Zeng Gaoda go, he invited the village chief of Taohai.

When Tao Hai saw the mountain-like bison in the courtyard, his cigarette pouch was about to fall, and he stared at his whiter eyes and said, "This, how can this good guy kill a cow?" It's just that the breed of this cow is so weird, not quite like the buffalo we use for ploughing the land here?"

"The village chief really has extraordinary knowledge, this is the bison we caught on the top of Qingyu Mountain, originally I wanted to train and subdue to plough the land, but this bison has a strong personality, and it will not die, there is no way, as long as it is killed. Zeng Youqu hurriedly slapped Tao Hai with a sycophant.

Tao Hai then took a bite of the cigarette pouch again and circled around the mountain-like bison a few times, "Then what is the matter with you inviting me over?"

"That's the case, yesterday the wicked people from the county ruined the name of my family's peace of mind, fortunately there are villagers to help, today I hunted this bison, I want to show a little heart, send some raw beef to everyone, but I don't know how much to send is appropriate, so I asked the village chief to come over, help weigh it. Zeng Youqu had a flattering smile on his face, and at this moment, he couldn't see the appearance of the black-faced god at all, he didn't know, he just thought he was an honest farmer in the village.

"What are you talking about? You have lived in Taoyuan for more than ten years, and this year we were able to participate in the Spring Festival Ceremony because of peace of mind, and I am grateful. Everyone has long regarded you as a family, and there are outsiders to bully, of course your own family members have to help each other, these are not worth anything, you should not take it to heart. The price of this beef is very high, generally only the nobles can afford to eat, they are just untouchables, who can eat such a luxurious thing? I guess I won't do it, I don't think you have to be so polite, this Qingyu Mountain originally belonged to your Zeng family, and the prey hunted on the mountain is naturally also your family, not to mention that this bison is not easy to hunt. I see that you simply sold it in its entirety, and when the mountain opened, everyone's wages were raised a little, and a little more bison meat was added to the lunch meal, and the big guy received your love and got more money, and he must be very willing. ā€

Anxin said with a smile: "It's still the village chief's grandfather who is smart, our family has discussed and discussed, but we haven't discussed the ugliness, the village chief's grandfather figured out the key at once, no wonder the village chief of Taoyuan Village is so good." ā€

Zeng Youqu nodded again and again, indicating that he listened to the village chief.

Tao Hai finally asked Zeng Gaoda to call Yu Dayong and a few young laborers in the village, and simply helped the Zeng family clean up the bison.

The villagers heard that the Zeng family actually hunted a bison from Qingyu Mountain, and they came to see the excitement.

Some of the shallow eyelids began to envy, and said: "The Zeng family is really smart, it only cost less than three hundred taels of silver to buy a treasure mountain, you see, this beef is heard to be expensive in the town restaurant, such a big mountain like a bison, the net peeled beef must be six or seven hundred catties." A few hundred taels of silver will be in hand, tsk, I have hunted so many pheasants and wild boars before, oops, I have already earned it back. ā€

But most people are very sober: "In the past, Qingyu Mountain stood there for decades, why didn't I see you go headhunting wild boars? Not to mention such a good thing as a bison, I'm afraid I haven't seen it." Being able to hunt is someone's ability, what is there to envy, even if we return Qingyushan now, we can't hunt anything, it's better to be in the hands of the Zeng family, we can still eat some game from time to time and get some benefits. ā€

There are also people who sigh that the Zeng family is good at doing things, if you change to ordinary people, where will you be so kind, what you hunt on the mountain, and give it away so generously?

It's like peanuts growing in your own field, but you won't give them to people for no reason, unless it's bartering or human exchanges.

Yu Dayong and He came back with hoes on their backs, and they were also startled when they saw the bison, so they hurriedly put the farm tools next to the yard and rolled up their sleeves to help.

Zeng Gaoda helped kill the cow while asking a man in the village to help him go to the town, talk to the owner of Taoyuan Restaurant, and ask them if they want this beef.

When Mrs. Shangguan heard about the bison, her eyes lit up, and their restaurant had to transport beef from far away every month, and everyone had to freeze it.

Now that there is ready-made bison in front of him, it is naturally a good thing, and he immediately ordered Yang Zhanpeng and the purchase of the restaurant to take a thousand taels of silver to Taoyuan Village.

The current market price of ordinary beef is one tael of silver and one catty, and the taste of this bison meat is more delicious, so the price will naturally rise slightly.

Mrs. Shangguan had never seen a bison, but from the weight of the household beef cattle, it was estimated that this bison was at least seven or eight hundred catties, and if the meat was of high quality, wouldn't it cost a thousand taels of silver?

When Shangguan Haoran heard that he was going to Taoyuan Village, he was naturally a happy lover, and immediately even the temptation of xiaolongbao was useless, so he hurriedly followed and bought it.

When Shangguan Haoran arrived, the bison had already been slaughtered, and after removing the horns, hooves and tail of the cow, there were still about 650 catties.

The buyer of Taoyuan Restaurant, also surnamed Yao, was a domestic slave of the Shangguan family, and he went to discuss the price with Zeng Youqu and others, and asked about the process of catching bison, and handed over the identification of beef to Shangguan Haoran.

It's not about the villagers, even Zeng Anxin was a little surprised, this Shangguan Young Master, who can only eat, will also identify beef?

Shangguan Haoran will only become stupid when he sees peace of mind, and it is still normal when he does serious things.

I saw that he first cleaned his hands, and then slightly rolled up his sleeves and tasted the bison meat in front of the villagers.

Shangguan Haoran had never seen a whole cow before, but he said from the meat quality that it was a juvenile heifer.

Zeng Anxin leaned behind the window and raised his eyebrows slightly, but he didn't expect that he couldn't swim, he really had some skills.

Because her mother didn't let her go out, saying that there were many people outside, Chen's mother only said that kind of thing yesterday, and she should avoid it today.

In general, cows have better meat quality than bulls or castrated beef.

Shangguan Haoran was like a seasoned master at this moment, facing the bison and said aloud to the people around him: "This beef has a clear texture, bright color, and normal taste. He pressed the surface of the beef with his fingers and picked it up again, only to see that the recess immediately rebounded back and returned to its original shape, which showed that it was full of elasticity.

"Yao comprador, I'm done checking. ā€

Yao comprador immediately stopped asking, walked over and bent down and asked in a low voice, "How many products does the young master give?"

Shangguan Haoran groaned slightly, and a fine light flashed in his round eyes: "Excellent!"

Yao's comprador face was full of surprise: "Excellent?" He seemed to be a little unconvinced, and walked to the side of the beef by himself, and the detection technique was similar to Shangguan Haoran's just now, and then he was also shocked, "Sure enough, it's the best." I don't know how much silver the young master wants to give?"

He quietly raised a finger towards Shangguan Haoran.

Anyway, these countrymen have never seen the world, so where do they know the price of ordinary beef in the market, and it is already very good to be able to give one or two silver.

Shangguan Haoran seemed to have not seen his gesture at all, and said in a loud voice: "Such a superb beef is worth two taels of silver and a catty." ā€

Yao comprador was almost choked by his own saliva, and his heart was slightly anxious, my young master, this more than 600 catties of beef, you have two taels in one mouth, but it is 1,200 taels of silver?

It only costs 600 taels to do it, so why double it?

When the villagers heard that they had actually offered two taels of silver, their eyes immediately lit up.

Zeng Youqu didn't know the price of beef in this era, so he looked at Tao Hai for advice, Tao Hai touched his beard and said, "Hu butchers often walk around the market, they should know better than us, right?"

Butcher Hu hurriedly said: "Back to the village chief, if you ask something else, I really don't know." I happen to know a little bit about this beef. Now the ordinary beef on the market is about one tael of silver and one catty, the middle grade is one tael or two dollars, and the top grade is between one tael and five cents and one tael and seven cents. ā€

A drop of sweat quietly fell from Yao's forehead, and his hand shrank into his sleeve like a cramp, fortunately the young master didn't listen to him just now, otherwise he would have been slapped in the face now.

Unexpectedly, in this small Taoyuan Village, there are people who know everything about the things eaten by nobles such as beef.

Shangguan Haoran immediately said to Zeng Youqu: "I don't know if my uncle thinks this price is appropriate?"

Zeng Youqu smiled, didn't speak, just looked at his eldest son, Zeng Gao pondered for a while, nodded, and then said: "We only sell four hundred catties of meat, and the other two hundred catties, we want to keep them for our own food." ā€

Yao comprador was anxious when he heard it, such a superb beef is hard to find, if once the wind is released, I am afraid that the stairs of Taoyuan Restaurant will be trampled on recently, naturally the more the merrier, why is the Zeng family unwilling to sell it all?

They only thought that 600 catties was too little, but now they could only get 400 catties, and they felt pain all of a sudden.

Tao Hai was also taken aback, the Zeng family wanted to keep two hundred catties, that was four hundred taels of silver?

"Brother Zeng, think about it again, why don't we discuss the price?" Shangguan Haoran saw that his eyes were about to be squeezed into cross-eyed, so he had to do his best.

He naturally knew how much impact this batch of bison meat had on the restaurant's business.

It is no exaggeration to say that this batch of beef was bought for two taels of silver per catty, even if it cost two taels of silver for materials and wages to match it, but in the blink of an eye, a dish of vegetables could be sold for at least more than twenty taels to fifty taels, which was several times more profitable, and they would never lose money.

Zeng Gaoda still shook his head, four hundred catties of beef were sold for eight hundred taels of silver, and they were just used to open the mountain to invite people to use, since this bison meat is the best, of course, it must be kept for his own enjoyment.

He is purely thinking about his little sister, but he is not like Yao Caimai, who wants to sit on the ground and raise the price.

Shangguan Haoran saw that Zeng Gaoda seemed to have a very strict mouth, so he immediately went to lobby Mrs. Zhang, although Mrs. Zhang said that she was distressed about money, but she would not embarrass her grandson in front of outsiders, so she said boldly: "My family is tall and big, and if you talk about it again, this beef will not be sold to you." ā€

Shangguan Haoran was immediately silenced.

Shangguan Haoran's eyes swept like this, and he saw the big pot of cow offal next to him, and his eyes immediately lit up, and he asked Zeng Gaoda, if he was willing to sell this offal, he was willing to spend 500 wen a pound to buy it.

The villagers who listened were envious again, and the internal organs of these several large pots were thirty or forty catties, and one or twenty taels of silver were in the account.

Before Zeng Gao could speak, Zeng Anxin ran out of the room on his feet, protected the internal organs of the pot of cows, and wrinkled his delicate jade nose: "You can't swim, you are so greedy, I have sold you 400 catties of beef, do you still want to fight the idea of this internal organs?"

She was thinking about the delicious umami of the offal soup in her previous life?

As soon as Shangguan Haoran saw Anxin, his originally serious face immediately turned into a tomato, and he stammered for some reason when he spoke, and began to evolve into a fool, only smirking, and stretched out his fat fingers to scratch his hair: "Anxin, if you like it, then, then stay." It's just that what do you want the entrails of this cow to do? Will you do it?"

Zeng Anxin pouted, and was very unhappy with him: "Will you do it, what's your business? Anyway, don't hit it." Hurry up and pay the money, take your beef with you, and leave. After that, she was still extremely uneasy, and instructed Zeng Gao to bring the visceral basin into the room.
