"Young Master Xu, what are you doing to catch so many lake crabs, this thing is unpalatable, there are too many shell claws, I will ask someone to send a few big fish to the county mansion later!" In the midst of the chat, Xiao He pointed to the baskets of crawling crabs placed in the shade of the trees and said with a smile.

"Master Xiao, this is a big mistake!" Jiang Chuxing shook his head like a rattle, "My sister-in-law learned a secret method of cooking lake crabs from Qinghehou in Xianyang, and the spicy crab made in the dry pot is extremely delicious, I ate it once last night, and I still have an aftertaste!" ”

"Qinghe Hou?!" Xiao He, Liu Bang, Cao Shen and others looked at Chen Xu in surprise almost at the same time.

"Yes, a certain is familiar with Qinghe Hou in Xianyang, you all know that Qinghe Hou is good at making delicious food, and he is a master in the food industry, so he also learned a scale and half a claw, just yesterday I met a fatty river crab on the road, I couldn't help but buy some, and the production is indeed delicious......" Chen Xu began to fool these hillbillies again, and Jiang Chuyue, who was provoked, turned her head and glanced at him gently.

She didn't know why Chen Xu came to Pei County in disguise, and he was a double marquis and a son-in-law of the Heavenly Son, but he came all the way to talk and laugh with a few officials in a poor and remote place like Pei County, and was also ready to eat meat and drink wine in this dirty and messy environment.

Liu Bang, Xiao He, and these little officials, she can't look down on them.

With the Jiang family's current status in Daqin, it can be said that they are already among the top wealthy families, even in Xianyang before, the people who come and go to the mansion every day are at least at the level of scholars, and the ordinary Jiang family will not take it seriously at all.

However, time has changed, and the shabby black and thin mountain boy has now turned into a top nobleman who the Jiang family is about to climb high, and her status has long been incomparable, and she has gradually become strangers for various reasons, and there is basically no possibility of being together.

This time, it may really be the last time to meet him.

After that, he will never be seen again!

Thinking of this, Jiang Chuyue felt as if her heart had been cut by a sharp knife, her delicate body trembled in pain, and in an instant, two lines of tears fell down her fair cheeks.

"Are you feeling unwell?" Chen Xu listened to the faint choking sound, and when he turned around, he saw Jiang Chuyue's body trembling slightly.

"Thank you Xu Lang for your concern, it may be that the lake wind and sun basking on the lake just now, it is indeed a little uncomfortable!" Jiang Chuyue hurriedly wiped away her tears and nodded softly.

"Isn't it heat stroke? The environment here is not very good, I will ask the guards to take you back to your house to rest! Chen Xu beckoned to call two guards, and after a few words, the two guards escorted Jiang Chuyue away.

"The delicacy made by Qinghehou, I have only heard of it, and I am afraid that I will never have the opportunity to taste it in my life!" After Jiang Chuyue left, Xiao He sighed after the topic of Fang Cai.

"Hehe, what's so difficult to eat the delicious food made by Qinghehou himself, if you go to Xianyang, my son will definitely introduce Qinghehou to eat meat and drink wine together and be happy together!" Chen Xu said with a smile.

"I want to go to Xianyang to see it, but unfortunately I can't get out of it on an errand, alas!" Xiao He shook his head slightly together with Cao Shen and Liu Bang.

"What's so difficult to go to Xianyang, the big husband should have the ambition of the world in all directions, you are all people with great ambitions, how can you be confined to this small Pei County and not show a retribution, if you want to go to Xianyang, you can arrange it properly, and you must be able to find a more ambitious future, and the future of the court is also unknown!"

Xiao He, Cao Shen and Liu Bang looked at each other, I don't know why this Xu Gongzi values them so much, although Pei County is not a barren mountain and a wild mountain, but it is not a big place at all, compared with Xianyang, there is a heaven and an underground, and they are also self-aware, Xianyang is a capital master, where the princes are all over the ground, there are many ministers like dogs, hundreds of disciples gathered, and they can hit several counties and counties with a brick casually, and if they want to mix to the point of ranking in the court, it is just a joke.

But...... If you can catch the Qinghe Hou, it is not impossible.

Thinking of this, the eyes of the three of them began to flicker again, and an irrepressible ambition began to churn in their hearts.

In the era of the Qin and Han dynasties, even the peddlers and pawns could shout the slogan of the princely general Xiangning, which shows that the people of this era are very brave and open-minded, and the people who are now ranked above the court in Great Qin are almost all the guest ministers who defected from the Six Kingdoms at the beginning, and assisted the First Emperor to sweep the Six Kingdoms to achieve today's immortal feats, and only then did he have the honorable status of the princely generals today.

There is no hope of defecting to the emperor at the moment.

Although the imperial court implemented the reform of the three provinces and six ministries and the assessment and promotion of the nine official positions, no one recommended him to be an official, so he took refuge in the princely prince and the secretary of state as a doorman, which became the only way for ordinary scholars to successfully promote and display their ambitions in the future.

Just like Xiao He Liu Bang, although he has the ability, he can only be a small official, and the official is not an official, not in the Jiupin official position, and cannot pass the assessment and promotion, even if he is conscientious and hardworking, he will work for a lifetime at most until he retires from old age, and then the local government will reward dozens of acres of land to go home for the elderly according to the law of officials, that's all.

But Xianyang is different, Daqin Metropolis Daily has already spread all over the world, and readers in many places have already understood the changes in Xianyang very clearly, Xianyang has health centers, engineering colleges, agricultural colleges, science colleges, and liberal arts colleges, as long as they can enter these offices, they will inevitably be able to get ahead in the future.

"Young Master Xu, I also want to go to Xianyang with you, but I am afraid that if I am not strong enough, I will lose your face when the time comes, and it is not easy for the county lord to be accommodating." Although Xiao He was excited, he was still quite hesitant.

"These Xiao officials can rest assured, as long as you want to go, this matter will definitely help you take care of everything, as for the ability, you must not be too inferior, many princes and princes of Daqin all started at the end of the cold, Zuo Xiang Li Si was just a small official of Shangcai, are you willing to stay in this Pei County for a lifetime of inaction, isn't it humiliated to learn a body, a certain yesterday I heard the county Zun say, Liu Prison Peng has a wide range of friends, and has a good reputation in Pei County, and he also went to Wei to defect to Xinling Jun's door, with such great ambitions, how can he be buried in the countryside!" Chen Xu smiled and waved his hand.

Liu Bang trembled slightly, and cautiously arched his hand and said: "At the beginning, Ji was young and vigorous, but now there is no Wei State, and Ji has already broken this thought!" ”

"Hehe, why should Liu Prison Peng be arrogant, the affairs of the Six Kingdoms are not unspeakable, you may also often read the Daqin Metropolis Daily, when you know that the emperor is not a narrow-minded king, now Xianyang hundreds of disciples gathered, all kinds of doctrines are allowed to be discussed freely, a few days ago from the Eastern Road, I heard that His Majesty Mount Tai issued an edict to engrave a hundred classics on Mount Tai, so that the world's scholars can admire ......"

"Is there such a thing?" There was a burst of exclamations and commotion in the courtyard.

"This matter is true, it is what the post man who passed the court's edict said, so you go to Xianyang when you have a lot to do, but you go or not to think about it yourself, if you want to go, you must arrange everything for you, if you don't go, you don't force it, you will stay in Pei County for three or five days, just tell me after you think about it!"

Liu Bang, Xiao He and others hurriedly nodded together, and then a group of people changed the topic and talked about some news published in the newspaper, Chen Xu also said a lot of things that happened in Xianyang, chatting for almost an hour, and the big man who was busy in the kitchen came out of the kitchen with a sweaty face and greeted Liu Bang: "Uncle help set up the seats, the dog meat is almost cooked!" ”

So Xiao He and the others also got up and went to the inner hall to move out the seats, brought dishes and chopsticks, and quickly set up a dining table under the mulberry tree.

After a while, the big man brought out a large pot of boiled dog meat from the kitchen and put it on the dining table, and then turned around and went to the inner hall to bring out a jar of wine to greet Chen Xu and the others to the table, and after a while, the young woman also sweated from the kitchen and brought out a dustpan made of reed rods, in which dozens of vegetable balls of rice cakes were given to the guards and young men sitting under the pergola, and a bucket of dog broth was also brought for them to eat.

Chen Xu nodded slightly, it seems that Fan Xu and his wife are really good to Liu Bang, so many people come to eat and drink, although the young woman looks slightly dissatisfied, but she still takes care of it very carefully.

Smelling the fragrant dog meat, Chen Xu also felt hungry, and he swam in the lake for more than an hour, which was indeed very physically exhausting, so he was not polite, and sat down under the greeting of Liu Bangxiao and others.

"Xu Gongzi, don't laugh, our poor countryside is not Xianyang, everything is very simple, but Brother Fan's dog meat is a must in Pei County, and the ancestral secret stewing method is often admired by people to taste!" Xiao He said with a smile.

"It smells really strong, so you're welcome!" Chen Xu reached out and picked up a pork rib and gnawed it, chewed it a little in the mouth, and immediately nodded again and again: "Not bad, it is indeed fragrant, soft and rotten, and the flavor is unique, and Brother Fan is also worthy of the title of dog meat master!" ”

"Thank you Xu Gongzi for your praise!" Fan Xu breathed a sigh of relief respectfully, and then sat down to eat, drink and chat with Chen Xu at his beckoning.

A big dog is about 30 pounds, but under the attack of a group of big men, it is like a storm, and soon a large pot of dog meat has bottomed out, and a jar of wine is also drunk.

"Dog meat is good, and this wine is good!" Chen Xu was finally seven or eight minutes full, and he was in the mood to pick up the crude clay cup and look at the wine in the cup.

This wine is not the same as the turbid wine brewed by ordinary people, Chen Xu has drunk Daqin's wine before, it is brewed with miscellaneous grains, there is no professional brewing method of the distillery in later generations, it has not been steamed, the alcohol content is very low and turbid, and the taste also has a sour and astringent taste, and sometimes I want to vomit when I drink it.

Although the taste of this wine is also very light and sour, it has a fresh aroma of mulberry fruit, and the color is dark red and cloudy, which looks a little similar to wine.

"Brother Fan, isn't this wine made from mulberries?" Chen Xu asked curiously.

"Xu Gongzi's eyes are like torches, this wine is indeed made of mulberries, it tastes much better than the previous turbid wine, and the government does not prohibit it, now we all drink this kind of wine, and the brewing is simple, make some koji and mulberries and put them in the vat to ferment, and they can be drunk in seven or eight days, but compared to the wine of Fan's Winery, it is still too far behind, and it cannot be put on the table......" Liu Bang said with a smile next to him.

"Where did you learn this brewing method?" Chen Xu was even more curious.

Liu Bang shook his head, "This law didn't start from our Pei County, but from elsewhere!" ”

"I heard that it was invented by a wine merchant in Huiji County, and the custom of planting mulberry and raising silkworms in the Wuzhong Five Lakes area is longer, where mulberry fields are everywhere, and a local wine merchant was inspired by wine, and then developed this mulberry wine, and then the production method spread!" Xiao He added next to him.

"I see!" Chen Xu nodded slightly.

It's no secret how wine is made.

At the beginning, Chen Xu gave the wine brewing method to Fan's joint stock winery, and Chen Xu can also get forty percent of the dividends every year, although this money is not much, but there are millions of dollars every year, mainly because the production of wine is very limited, and the sales volume is also very limited. Therefore, the sales of Fan's winery seem to be good, but in fact, the benefits are not as good as Chen Xu's Qinghe wine.

But in any case, turning a small fruit wine into a big business with an adult income of millions is very considerable even for Fan's.

However, since Fan's began to involve steel smelting, cement and Dongfang Dao, the winery has become a small family business, and Fan Yan has handed over the winery's business to a side of the family to take care of, but Chen Xu's dividend ratio has not changed, and it is getting more and more year by year.

Just like Chen Xu's guess at the beginning, the brewing of red wine is extremely simple, as long as someone knows that wild grapes can make wine, even if they don't know the process, there must be businessmen or craftsmen involved in the wine business to start experiments, and the probability of success of the experiment is almost 100%.

After all, winemaking has been going on in China for thousands of years, and there is nothing wrong with the technology, the problem is just a few more experiments.

The mulberry wine in front of us is the best example of the people's courage to explore and innovate.

The Chinese have a talent for studying food and drink, and they simply don't have to dig hard.

Chen Xu has not drunk the red wine brewed from pure mulberry, but he feels that if it is brewed, it may be more promising than wine, and the yield will be higher, because the grapes are all wild mountain grapes, the particles are small and the ripening time is uneven, and the characteristics are unstable, some are sour and some are sweet, so the taste of the wine is also very different, and the sweetness and sourness are not easy to control, but the mulberry is different, the mulberry trees in the Yuhang area of Suyang in the south have long been planted in a large area, and the annual mulberry output is hundreds of thousands of tons, as long as the mature winemaking method is mastered, The production of this red wine is bound to be very large, and it will definitely surpass wine to become a huge red wine industry.

It seems that this time I went to the meeting to investigate Xiang Yu's affairs, and I can also arrange this industry well, the farmers are poor, and it is also a way to increase some additional income for local mulberry and silkworm farmers.

After eating a pot of dog meat, a jar of mulberry wine was also drunk, except for Chen Xu, everyone was slightly drunk, and in the afternoon, Xiao He, Liu Bang, Cao Shen and others had to go to the county government on a business trip, so Chen Xu and others followed and said goodbye and prepared to leave.

"Brother Fan's stewed dog meat is a must, I don't know if I want to follow someone to Xianyang for development?" Before leaving, Chen Xu said to Fan Xu, who had a full face and beard, exposed his breasts, and thick chest hair.

Fan Hao touched the back of his head for a long time, and then turned his head to look at Liu Bang.

"You don't rush to answer me about this, I have to go to Huiji County in a few days, you want to go to Xianyang at any time welcome, if I am not there, go to Xianyang Liuxiang Garden to find the eldest son of the imperial doctor Meng Yun, he is good friends with me, Liuxiang Garden is opposite the Qinghe Garden opened by Qinghe Hou, when the time comes, I can recommend you to Qinghe Garden as a chef, specializing in making dog meat, it will be very popular in Xianyang!" Chen Xu said with a smile.

"Uncle, thank you Xu Gongzi soon!" Liu Bang pulled Fan Xue excitedly.

"Multi-...... Thank you Xu Gongzi for your kindness......" Fan Xu hurriedly thanked him, and even the young woman holding the baby next to her suddenly brightened her eyes.

"Haha, that's it, farewell!" Chen Xu turned over and got on his horse, and under the escort of the guards and the boy, he followed Jiang Chuxing and left, Xiao He, Liu Bang and others also hurriedly got on the horse and followed until they were near the county government before saying goodbye and dispersing.
