In the sweltering summer season, Lin Ran followed the education model of later generations for the children.

Summer vacation for the kids.

Combining work and rest is the best way to educate.

A boring textbook-like approach doesn't always lead to good results.

Of course, the children also have summer homework during the holidays.

And still to experience life.

Fortunately, the students are all children from Linjia Village and several nearby villages, which is very convenient for education and management.

Because of the teachings of Zhuang Yuanlang, the children's enthusiasm for learning is very high.

The children of ten miles and eight towns have coveted the children of Linjia Village and several surrounding villages, and can accept the personal teaching of Zhuang Yuanlang without worry.

They also aspire to be able to enter the school in Linjia Village like the children of Linjia Village.

Many people ask their relatives to go through the back door.

The relationship between the seven aunts and the eight aunts has been pulled out.

Even the donkey's tail was tied to a mallet, and relatives who couldn't hit it with eight poles came to the door.

Pray to be able to worship under the door of the champion.

In this regard, Lin Ran can only express deep regret.

He also wants to accept more students to expand his school and cultivate more fresh blood for Datang.

However, reality does not allow it.

Let's not talk about the quality of teachers.

Even the academy is now full.

Of the hundreds of soldiers under Lin Ran's command, many of them have become more and more fond of learning.

Therefore, in their spare time, they will consciously listen to lectures in the corner of the classroom.

When you can't squeeze in the corner.

Even when they were standing outside the classroom, they listened with relish.

Once the windows of knowledge are opened.

What they see in front of them is a different landscape.

On the road of intellectual exploration.

People's quest is never-ending.

It is the never-ending exploration of batch after batch of people that has created the glorious national culture of our nation.

Only then can we go through the pains of blood and fire, but we can also phoenix nirvana and stand on top of the world.

Lin Ran, who had taken a vacation, had a very comfortable life.

In addition to the thunderous running exercise and boxing practice.

In Lin Ran's spare time, in addition to teasing his sister Guoguo and his younger brother Houhou, the two lovely children, he went to fish in the pond in the back.

On this day, Lin Ran had breakfast.

I took my fishing tools and went to the pond.

People who like fishing.

It's not actually the fish that falls.

It's the state of mind that fishes.

Lin Ran's previous school is surrounded by a large artificial lake.

Many old people carried Mazar and sat for a day.

Even if you can't catch a fish, it's fun.

But there are too many fish in the pond in the back mountain.

Almost to the point of 100 shots.

made Lin Ran more and more tired of this foolish way of fishing.

Just as he was about to throw away his fishing rod and go to the mountains to hunt pheasants.

A particularly kind and familiar voice sounded in Lin Ran's ears.

"Is it the sound of cicadas?"

Lin Ran muttered to himself.

Lin Ran followed the sound and looked at the willow tree.

Sure enough, he saw a transformed cicada shell.

On the branch not far from the cicada shell.

A black one was singing hard.

Lin Ran counted the days, and now is the time when he knows that the monkey is about to break through the ground.

In this day and age, people regard this delicious game as an insect.

I've never been afraid to avoid it.

Not to mention edible.

There are also places where the people call them immortals.

Just because it will come out of its shell and naturally transform, it is enshrined as a god, which shows how complacent people's minds were at that time.

For the delicacy of knowing the monkey, Lin Ran will never forget it for the rest of his life.

When he was very young, he would follow his father's ass and look for his eyes on the ground every summer after the wheat harvest.

The so-called eye-finding.

It is to know that before the monkey itself is about to break through the ground, it will dig out a little bit of ant-like eyes in the ground.

The monkey who gouged out his eyes.

It only waited for it to break through the ground after dark.

Soon they will be climbing down the trunk to the branches.

Some monkeys with good physical strength will climb all the way to the top of the tree.

Then, after a short period of rest, it will begin its own gorgeous transformation.

The transformation of the monkey who has been breaking through the ground to the transformation that has been known will not normally take more than an hour.

Because of Lin Ran in his previous life, when he was young.

Flashlights have not yet become widespread in rural areas.

So before dark, people were looking for the monkey.

The hometown is commonly known as the monkey.

At that time, people could only look for their eyes and touch monkeys before dark.

Most of the monkeys that broke through the ground after dark successfully climbed the trees and successfully completed their gorgeous transformations.

Of course, there are also a very small number of monkeys who don't have long eyes, and climb on the legs of people who are enjoying the cool under the trees.

That's really the answer to that sentence.

Playing lanterns in the pit - looking for death.

Later, because of the popularity of flashlights.

Knowing that monkeys can't escape the flashlight even after dark.

People are in this season, after dark.

He held a flashlight in one hand and a bamboo pole in the other.

Of course, bring a bottle or jar of monkeys.

Go to the pond with many trees, the road, and the river in the village.

Of course, the most abundant and densest number of monkeys are still in the entire grove.

I think of these childhood memories of my past life.

The corners of Lin Ran's mouth were full of joy and sorrow.

I can't go back to that world.

Let's work hard in this world.

Since I've been here.

We must work hard to go down this road.

Since I chose to teach the children in Linjia Village for five years.

It is necessary to go without regrets.

And I have to make achievements for everyone to see.

Even if it's crying, let yourself cry alone.

The smile must be reserved for one's dearest.

Who put him inside the body of this ten-year-old boy.

It contains the soul of an adult in his thirties.

"Knowing the monkey, knowing the monkey, your good days are over."

Lin Ran smiled and muttered to himself.

The corners of the mouth raise in a noticeable arc.

The next day, a news that surprised the villagers was officially announced by Lin Ran.

That is, Lin Ran is ready to buy Zhizhi Monkey on a large scale.

All the monkeys that have not been transformed are acquired.

And even if it's out of shape, as long as it's not old.

It is the same as the one of the tender color.

The price has reached a high price of 50 pennies.

Let his father Lin Zhengtai and his mother Sun call Lin Ran a loser.

There is no way, the big money in the family is earned by the son.

He likes to toss, let him toss it.

"Father, mother. I believe in the child, this time the child not only wants to make money, but the main purpose is to let the surrounding people also earn some pocket money. ”

Lin Ran's words can be regarded as calming down his parents.

All in all, the son's intentions are good.

As a parent, there is no reason to stop your son from doing good deeds, good deeds.

Besides, the son fell off the cliff and did not die.

Instead, he got a special allocation from the white-bearded old man.

As a result, he became more and more intelligent and clever.

In the end, from the first place in the township test to the yuan of the general examination.

and the final champion.

It is also the result of a blessing.

And the son opened several shops in Chang'an City.

One makes more money than the other.

Money is for the Lin family today.

It's really just a number.

Now the son wants to repay the villagers and provide them with an opportunity to make money.

Father Lin Zhengtai and mother Sun are still very pleased and supportive.

"Lao Hou, lead the brothers to walk out the news."

"Not only the entire Wannian County will be collected, but also the entire Chang'an City will be acquired together."

"The acquisition of Wannian County has made the brothers work hard for a while."

"Every evening, a horse-drawn carriage runs around the entire Wannian County."

"Buy all the monkeys that are willing to sell to the people who know the monkeys to us."

"Be sure to come back that night."

"I'll leave it to you how to pickle."

"The monkeys in Chang'an City know the monkeys, so let the people personally send them to the Four Seasons Restaurant. The price has increased slightly, which is regarded as an errand fee for the villagers. ”

Lin Ran solemnly explained one by one.

"Childe, don't worry."

"Hou San will definitely lead the brothers to complete the things that the son explained."

After Hou San said goodbye to Lin, he led more than 100 soldiers to various villages in Wannian County.

It's just a day's time.

The entire Wannian County was frantically chanting a piece of news.

That is the champion of Linjia Village, who bought the monkey drilled out of the soil at a high price.

The price is so high that it is higher than the price of grain.

Let the people who heard the news grind their fists one after another, ready to do a big job.

No one in this world is ever at odds with money.

Not to mention the people at the bottom who are already extremely short of money.

On the second day, the people of the entire Chang'an City also learned the news.

Four Seasons Restaurant will acquire the news of the monkey in unlimited quantities.

Let the surrounding people of the entire Chang'an City be ecstatic.

In their eyes, Four Seasons Restaurant is the god of wealth of the people.

Last year's high-priced purchase of locusts is still fresh in our minds.

It was the people who relied on the sale of locusts in exchange for copper plates.

It has been one of the worst disaster years.

For this reason, many people are grateful to the Four Seasons Restaurant.

Today they are going to start buying Zhili Monkey at a high price.

This is another way to live for the people!

And they also heard that around Chang'an City.

Whoever personally sent the monkey to the Four Seasons Restaurant.

will send a bowl of rice, or a bowl of porridge, as compensation for the hard work of running back and forth.

This intimate act instantly moved the people beyond measure.

Truth be told, in this era of extreme scarcity of all kinds of food. (Except for the extreme surroundings of Linjia Village)

The hardship provided by Four Seasons Restaurant will deeply move every citizen.

Whether it's a bowl of rice or a bowl of porridge at Four Seasons Restaurant.

Or even a dough cake.

They are all delicacies that are difficult for ordinary people to enjoy.

So at every dusk and evening.

in every village and countryside.

Underneath all the trees that know that monkeys may appear.

It doesn't matter if it's an old man or a child.

It doesn't matter if it's a husband or a wife.

have started another road to riches.

The monkeys of this era, once it is the season to break the ground, they are all swarming together.

This can be seen from the dense monkey drill out of the ground eye.

Especially if there is a downpour in the afternoon or dusk.

Then you can take a bucket or basin and pick up the monkey.

It will definitely make you pick up the monkey and pick it up.

Now it's Chiguoguo's money pick-up, and it's soft.

Lin Ran bought the monkeys from Hou San and the others, and cleaned them all with clean water.

Put it all in the barrel.

Keep half a bucket of water in the barrel until you realize that the water in the bucket filled by the monkey begins to overflow.

At this time, sprinkle a large amount of salt into the barrel.

In this way, I know that the monkey can be marinated for one night, and if the taste is heavy, it can be marinated for a few more nights.

On the second day, the cooks of the Four Seasons Restaurant came to Linjia Village early in the morning, under the leadership of the shopkeeper Liu Peng.

The purpose of their trip was to learn the arts.

Of course, I came to learn the processing and cooking skills of monkeys from Lin Ran.

Lin Ran had just finished exercising when they arrived from Chang'an.

It can be seen that Liu Peng shouted the cooks from the bed very early.

There are many ways to do it.

But it really makes Lin Ran nostalgic.

It was the monkey who was fried in oil by his mother on a wok in his previous life.

I still remember that taste, and I still linger in my mouth.

So Lin Ran first taught the decoction monkey.

Then fried, cooked, steamed, boiled, and all kinds of ways to make monkeys.

Lin Ran taught it carefully and seriously.

Even the secret of chopping monkeys after cooking and cutting them into stuffed dumplings.

He taught them to the chefs of Four Seasons Restaurant without reservation.

Four Seasons Restaurant has been open until now.

Several of the cooks have gone through all kinds of trials.

So Lin Ran was fully confident that he would keep them.

It's not just Lin Ran who has a high salary.

Lin Ran had already promised their children that they could come to the Linjia Village School to study and study in the future.

All fees are free.

Lin Ran still remembered the scene when he told them the news to a few cooks, and several of them burst into tears.

They cherish this hard-won opportunity and are more willing to work hard in Four Seasons Restaurant.

Because of all kinds of crazy rumors among the people.

In addition, there is a steady stream of ordinary people who go to the Four Seasons Restaurant to sell monkeys every day.

The citizens of Chang'an City began to look forward to the birth of another delicacy as if they were looking forward to fried locusts.

Sure enough, this expectation did not make them wait too long.

Three days later, at noon, the long-awaited fried cooking monkey made its debut.

It's different from fried locusts.

People can choose their own method of making.

The citizens who have been impatient for a long time have made a competition of various flavors in order to be better, more specific and more comprehensive.

Just order one of each and savor it before deciding.

The guys in today's Four Seasons Restaurant almost broke their legs.

Because business is just too good.

There's just too much traffic.

But all the guests who have tried frying and cooking, and all kinds of flavors know the monkey.

Everyone is full of praise for this fresh food.

A bug they've always scoffed at.

It was made by the chefs of the Four Seasons Restaurant, and it has an extraordinary taste.

While the foodies in Chang'an City are addicted, the dependence on the Four Seasons Restaurant is also becoming stronger and stronger.

According to Lin Ran's instructions, Miss Cuizhu went to the Four Seasons Restaurant every day to collect ice cubes and juice for Princess Changle.

Of course, His Majesty and the Queen Mother and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince are indispensable.

Even the Suguo Mansion and the teacher's mansion, Lin Ran asked Hou San to send some over.

There are also his own sworn brothers, of course Lin Ran can't forget it.

Otherwise, how can it be called blessings and hardships?

"Miss Cuizhu, this is specially explained by the prince, let the girl take it into the palace, and give it to His Majesty, the Queen Mother, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

Liu Peng handed over the two clean and spotless food boxes to the Cuizhu girl.

After taking the food box and thanking her, Cuizhu took the ice cubes and juice and boarded the carriage back to the palace.

"Erlang, the concubine heard that there is a new delicacy in Chang'an City recently."

"And the people have earned a lot of copper plates for this, Lin Gongzi will always have amazing moves."

In the Lizheng Palace, Empress Eldest Sun stroked her bulging belly and spoke.

"I've got accurate information, this kid has won the hearts of the people in one fell swoop this time."

"Not only have the people of Wannian County made money, but even the people of Chang'an City have also made a lot of money."

"This little guy, what he can't let go of in his heart is the common people."

"I just don't know what this so-called monkey tastes like?"

"Listening to the return of the hundred knights, everyone who has tasted it is all praised."

"I think the taste of the Four Seasons Restaurant is excellent."

His Majesty Li Er's voice just fell.

A little girl like an elf broke into the palace like a wind.

"Father, mother. Guess what it is? ”

Princess Changle held two food boxes brought back by Miss Cuizhu from the Four Seasons Restaurant, blinked her beautiful big eyes, and asked.

"My father guessed that it was rumored recently, a delicacy called Zhili Monkey."

"Why is my father's guess so accurate? Did my father know something in advance? ”

Princess Changle appeared with a pair of big eyes, very puzzled.

"Just now, my father and your mother were talking about the new food in Chang'an City."

"So my father is also guessing randomly, is it really not possible?"

His Majesty Li Er looked at the two clean food boxes and said.

"Giggles... Cluck... Of course it's true. ”

"This is what Cuizhu just brought back from the Four Seasons Restaurant. Father, mother, let's taste it together. ”

After speaking, Princess Changle opened the two food boxes.

Suddenly, a strong fragrance spread in the Lizheng Palace.

Miss Cuizhu poured the juice for His Majesty, the Queen and Princess Changle.

Carefully arranged the chopsticks for the three of them, and stood aside and waited for the dispatch at any time.

"Delicious... Guanyin, hurry up and taste it. ”

"Changle, hurry up and move your chopsticks..."

His Majesty Li Er chewed a fried monkey in his mouth, and his eyes lit up.

With the exemplary and leading role of His Majesty Li Er.

Empress Changsun and Princess Changle picked up the chopsticks in their hands one after another.

Carefully clamp a monkey and gently take a small bite.

As soon as the taste was in the mouth, the expressions of the eldest grandson queen and Changle were enriched.

I never thought that this monkey was actually a delicacy that was a little more delicious than locusts.

It's a pity that after so many years, I can only watch them waste year after year.

The four flavors of the monkey were tasted by the three of them one by one.

Take a bite of the monkey and take a sip of juice.

In the hot summer season, there are ice cubes in the palace to cool down.

Last night, His Majesty Li Er was at Concubine Shu's place, and he exercised fiercely for a night.

Until Concubine Shu begged for mercy and admitted defeat.

His Majesty Li Er still refuses to give up.

In the end, it gushed out, and it was the end.

Let His Majesty Li Er have a good experience of the taste and pleasure of conquest... Feel.

Life has never been so comfortable.

His Majesty Li Er had to sigh.

Today's days are like fairy-like days.

Knowing that the monkey broke out of the ground, although the peak period was only about twenty days.

But intermittently can be captured for a month or so.

In the end, when the monkeys in the land basically did not break through the ground, Lin Ran began to buy them.

The kind of people who sing on the branches of the trees know that they are all acquired.

It doesn't matter if it's fried or grilled.

It's all a special taste in my heart.

After a month or so.

The money bags of the people of Wannian County and Chang'an City are bulging.

A smile of happiness and satisfaction filled the face of every ordinary person.

It was learned that next year Zhuangyuanlang will continue to acquire the monkey.

The people are eager for the next summer season to come soon.
