Chapter 9: Table Meetings

Soon the hot pot was boiling, and three men and one woman sat around a small round table, busily picking up the cooked beef and mutton slices with chopsticks.

At this time, the atmosphere is slowly warm, hot pot, wine and meat, and beauties ...... All of a sudden, they all came alive.

Although Wang Xuanqing is not the kind of woman who can make men feel very amazing at a glance and then never forget it, she also has a unique temperament, belonging to the kind of girl who thinks she is actually very good-looking the longer she looks at it.

The dark green long hair is scattered casually behind the head at the moment, the dark green eyes are flashing with an impatient look, the small mouth is snoring and eating the meat in the bowl and looking at the meat in the pot, and the fair face is dyed with a faint flush because of the steaming temperature of the copper hot pot and the aroma of the ingredients, which looks unexpectedly cute.

Now that it is autumn, several people sit around and eat hot pot, but they seem to be more familiar and cordial with each other.

Ling Hao looked at Wang Xuanqing for a long time, and then picked up a piece of beef slices and put it in the bowl, he was always embarrassed to keep staring at Wang Xuanqing, and only kept drinking with the newly collected diners next to him, so as to cover up his trance-like state just now.

"Childe, you can't just drink alcohol, you still have to eat some meat, I just heard Mr. Hua say that drinking on an empty stomach is very hurtful. Wang Xuanqing reminded softly, making Ling Hao's face nervous again.

"Ahem...... I know, that ...... Xuanqing, you have to eat more. Ling Hao settled down and spoke seriously.

The old man and the middle-aged diners on the side also showed expressions that all men understand, it seems that their son is quite reserved.

The random props that have been refreshed in the past few days are not bad, and Ling Hao mainly picked a few of the more important things to focus on exchanging, such as the two new assistants around him, and then things like peppercorns, peppercorns, and dogwoods......

Especially pepper, if you use it well, you can't make a lot of money...... Hey, hey, hey.

Pepper is native to India, and the English word for pepper is said to still have the meaning of "lend-lease money", and the reason is very simple and crude - because pepper cannot be grown in Europe, and pepper was once a "strategic resource" that could not be found in Europe In addition, pepper is also a must-have collection in the European aristocracy, if any nobleman does not have a collection of pepper, it will definitely attract the ridicule of other nobles, and the European aristocracy will even compete with each other to see whose collection of pepper is more...... It is said that the purpose of the Crusades was not only to proselytize, but also to plunder resources, which of course included pepper.

Unlike Europe, which fanatically pursues pepper, pepper has been introduced to China since the Tang Dynasty from India, and under the hard work of the Chinese working people, pepper has almost taken root in China itself.

It is said that before chili pepper was introduced to China, the table of Chinese relied on these two condiments to increase the taste and layering of food, so it is not like Wang Wei's poems described, only for the purpose of the Double Ninth Festival, it also has other uses.

Thinking of this, I don't know when to give random chili peppers, cumin and peanuts, and I'm already tired of eating fried soybeans.

Ling Hao thought bitterly, no wonder he missed the past, it was really that the life in this era was so poor that it was not like words...... If anyone tells him now that he will be very happy after crossing, waking up to the power of the world, drunk and lying on the knees of beauties and other, he will definitely say this to the other party, where to cross, no mobile phone, no network, there are strict rules on food and clothing, if you want to eat something, you have to do it yourself, every move has to be a board and a glance, there is no heating and blankets at home, the square pillow is easy to sleep on its own, you have to get up to work before dawn, and there is no such setting as a weekend, only work and life day after day, year after year, there is not even toilet paper here...... Where's the good?

When someone was secretly complaining about the inconveniences of this era, he suddenly thought that he was still in an aristocratic family...... Can the people at the bottom still live a life?

So, in addition to growing his own crops...... By the way, these crops were promoted to the vicinity of Yongcheng, and they were sold at a low price acceptable to everyone, and for a time they absorbed a lot of farmers to be tenants under their names, helping them to plant the land while also getting some seeds, and the most important thing is that there are fifty five-baht wages to attract them, you must know that the fifty dollars of this era are enough for a common people's family for about three months, so there are many farmers who have heard about it...... Sure enough, the banknote ability is the most real ability, not to mention that the conditions offered by Ling Hao are almost unheard of.

In addition to the obligation to farm the land, pay wages, take care of three meals, if they harvest new seeds in the coming year, they can even take them home and plant them, so that there are naturally more and more people who come to report, in this era, it is a luxury to be able to eat and dress warmly, Ling Hao's behavior is simply a good person for them, if they have the economic conditions, who would want to go hungry.

Ling Hao suddenly desperately hoped that the contract store could randomly produce high-yield crops for him, such as sweet potatoes, potatoes, corn, lotus roots, etc., and even if he couldn't make people full, it could provide a new type of occupation and increase employment opportunities...... Are you afraid that you won't be able to capture the hearts of the people in the world?

When the time comes, it doesn't matter if you are a prince or a general, or a martial arts master...... Whoever offends himself is tantamount to going against everyone in the world, and when the time comes, he will allocate them professional weapons and equipment, and they may not necessarily lose to those so-called martial arts masters.

Yes, you bigwigs are all awesome, and I can't offend you for the time being, but no matter how awesome you are, aren't you still one person? Can you alone deal with the whole world?

The results are obvious.

Therefore, my current task is to develop in a low-key manner, step by step, grasp the lifeblood of the people in the world step by step, and then merge with them to share weal and woe.

He doesn't have the narrow vision of this narrow era, so all he can do is these posthumous things, and as for the rest, it's up to Wang Xuanqing himself.

I only have the qualifications of the tiger and leopard, and to put it bluntly, I am stronger than ordinary people, but if I die, I will stay at the strength of the ground lock ninefold, and it is impossible to break through the three levels of the heavenly seal without the assets of Luan Feng and the capital of the dragon, so ...... She can only put her hope on Wang Xuanqing, she still has hope to break through the three levels of the Heavenly Seal, and even win the realm of the Great Grandmaster, and when she reaches that realm, she wants to drink water when she moves mountains and reclaims the sea...... At that time, the two of them will support each other, and with the full support of the people of the world, it is not a matter of unifying the world?

Just as Ling Hao was looking forward to the future, the diners on the side suddenly interrupted his beautiful fantasy: "By the way, Childe, you have recently opened your mind, and the reputation of no longer doing evil has spread in Yongcheng, and the people say that Yongcheng is missing a big disaster." ”

"Uh...... Nan God, I used to be all because there was no way, I was not sensible at that time, so I followed them to do nonsense, now after understanding etiquette, righteousness and shame, I regret not being at the beginning, thinking that now I can do some good deeds for the people, and it can be regarded as accumulating a little blessing for myself in the future. Ling Hao was a little embarrassed to be said, so he laughed and scratched his head.

"Childe can restrain himself from the precipice, he can change his mistakes, and he will definitely achieve something in the future, Brother Yan, don't run Childe. Wang Xuanqing also spoke out at this time to relieve himself.

"Miss Xuanqing, Yan is not talking nonsense, Yan saw it just now, Childe has been staring at Miss Xuanqing just now, Miss Xuanqing is careful, maybe one day Childe will eat you. This Brother Yan didn't think that Wang Xuanqing was a little unruly sitting with them, but he chatted with Wang Xuanqing very well, and felt that she was a woman with great wisdom, so he said these things to Wang Xuanqing.

Wang Xuanqing just smiled slightly: "If the son does that one day, it must be when Xuanqing has something to achieve, and the son will dare to do it...... Otherwise, a person with such a good discipline as Childe would definitely not do such a degrading thing. ”

"Miss Xuanqing has a good mind and a good complexion, and the old man also feels that Yan Daxia's words are a little too much. ”

"Mr. Hua, you are a little eccentric, Yan is not talented, although he has made some fame in the rivers and lakes for many years, he almost starved to death on the street, but he can be accepted as a diner by Gongzi, it is Yan's honor, Yan can still eat with Gongzi when he first arrives, this is an honor that executives have never had. ”

"Hahaha, Brother Yan only eats and drinks, I don't have anything else in Ling's mansion, but the wine and meat are absolutely enough. Ling Hao waved his hand and said proudly.

"Since Childe has spoken, then Yan is disrespectful, speaking of Childe's whimsical idea is really wonderful, several people sit around a table to drink wine and eat meat, happy, happy!"

"As long as Brother Yan doesn't make fun of me, it's great if this is nonsense, if my brother sees it, he will definitely say that I have no rules. ”

If the eldest prince said so, Yan would discuss with the eldest prince for the second son, and Yan also wanted to see how the eldest prince was strong. ”

"Well, next time when my brother comes back, how about you talk to him?"

"That's a good feeling. ”

"Your internal injuries over the years still need to be well recuperated, and the old man suggests that you don't quarrel with people casually during this time. ”

"Then listen to Mr. Hua, and wait for Yan to recover from his injury, and then formally discuss with the eldest prince. ”

Wang Xuanqing was eating hot pot, the thoughts in her mind were spinning rapidly, and it seemed that the person she chose did not disappoint her.

It's only been a long time, and Ling Hao has actually found a powerful eater with the sixfold strength of the ground lock, the wealth of Luan Feng, and an unfathomable medical family who is proficient in medical science.

Hua Tuo and Yan Nantian, if these two people can be co-opted for themselves and Ling Hao, the pressure in the Ling Mansion will be much less.

Ling Hao has been living under the protection of his family and brother since he was a child, and he must first help him build up his confidence.

"Today is so lively, Xuanqing will pay tribute to Mr. Hua and Brother Yan. Wang Xuanqing picked up the wine bottle, raised his head and drank a glass of wine, and then poured himself another glass.

"Haha, Miss Xuanqing has a good amount of wine!" Yan Nantian likes to be a bold person the most in his life, seeing Wang Xuanqing so happy, he was also busy drinking the wine in his cup at the moment, and then filled himself up.

Hua Tuo also drank a glass of wine, and then shook his head: "It's better for young people to drink less alcohol, it's easy to make mistakes if you drink too much, in case it causes physical discomfort and can't be treated in time, but you will lose your life." ”

"Mr. Hua doesn't have to worry, Shiseido is under construction, and when Shiseido is completed, Mr. Hua can sit in Shiseido, treat the pain of the people of Yongcheng, and take a look at the social situation in Yongcheng by the way. Ling Hao drank a few glasses of wine in a row, and his face was already a little ruddy, the amount of alcohol in this body was really not good.

However, eating hot pot at noon is indeed a little interesting, a bit like a small gathering in later generations, from time to time to find a few people who can be called friends to get together, how lively.

This is probably the so-called table meeting.
