It was noon, and the sunlight penetrated through the whole piece of glass on the roof of the warm house, which was bright and dazzling, and the plants in the warm house became more and more lush and full of spring.

Fang Jun did not continue the topic, but ordered someone to prepare lunch, and put wine and food on a stone table under the dense and verdant bamboo bushes in the greenhouse, and invited Li Xiaogong and Li Ke to eat together.

There are no delicacies, no delicacies from the mountains and seas, and the lunch is very light.

There is not too much wine, only a delicate and small porcelain altar, the mouth of the jar is sealed with mud, Fang Jun patted the mud seal open, and a rich aroma of wine wafted out, which made people feel refreshed and tongue-invigorating.

Fang Jun first poured the wine from the jar into a small silver wine jug, the wine was clear and bright, slightly showing a faint green, and then personally filled the small glass wine glass in front of the two, and said with a smile: "This is a highland barley wine from Tibet, but it is different from what is sold on the market, although the raw material is still highland barley rice, it is specially made with a secret recipe. The taste of this wine is slightly light, but the aftertaste is long, and it is often drunk, which is very effective for clearing the intestines and laxative, relieving symptoms such as head disease and chest tightness. ”

Li Xiaogong naturally knew that Fang Jun and Tubo Daxiang Lu Dongzan cooperated to brew highland barley wine, and now the highland barley wine on the market is quite popular, and Li Xiaogong has also tasted it, except for the unique taste, there is nothing unusual. However, for Tibet, which is bitter cold and barren, it is natural to be able to have such a drink to accumulate money, and it is natural to be overjoyed and ecstatic.

Pick up the small and delicate glass wine glass, the wine in the glass is a faint green, through the glass to look more crystal clear, gently sip, into the throat to taste, mellow and harmonious, sweet and refreshing, long aftertaste, lingering fragrance continues......

"Good wine!" Li Xiaogong praised.

This kind of mellow but not strong wine is in line with the Taoist health preservation technique, and it is most suitable for rich idlers like him to drink it often, which can not only satisfy the cravings of banquet guests, but also do not hurt the liver and spleen, and even have the effect of health preservation.

The dishes are also simple and light, with six dishes and one soup, which is slightly shabby on the stone table.

Of course, this is for the nobles of the family, if it is placed in the homes of ordinary people, they will not be able to buy such dishes during the New Year......

The closest to Li Ke is a Bihu vinegar celery, celery is tender green with a touch of goose yellow, the soup base is clear, Li Ke picks up a piece of vinegar celery and puts it in his mouth and chews it gently, a refreshing taste unique to celery fills the mouth, fresh and refreshing.

The second dish is fried chicken breast, probably using some sauce, and it tastes good, Li Ke secretly wondered how to make this sauce while eating, and asked Fang Jun for this recipe later, and turned around to send it to his father, presumably his father must like it.

There is another dish of chicken, but the method is completely different from what it is now, and it has never been seen before. A plain white porcelain plate, a white and translucent whole chicken is cut into even small pieces and neatly stacked on the plate, and a small dish of seasoned sauce is placed next to it......

"Is this dish famous?"

Li Xiaogong pinched a muscle, dipped it in the sauce, put it in his mouth, and his eyes lit up.

I have eaten a lot of muscles, but this kind of skin and smooth meat, light and delicious delicacy has never been seen before, especially this sauce, which is delicious in the mouth and very flavorful.

Fang Jun used chopsticks to clip a piece of muscle for Li Ke, put it on the plate in front of him, and introduced: "The two must know that they are gluttonous in the next, and they don't get tired of eating and not getting tired of being fine, which is pondered when they are bored, and they don't add any seasoning when cooking, and they eat and chop when they eat, so they are named 'white chopped chicken', this cooking method is the most important ingredient, and it can best show the tenderness and smoothness of the chicken, and the most authentic original taste." This sauce is much more troublesome, with soy sauce and fresh shrimp as the main ingredients, and condiments such as sugar and rice wine, which is the most delicious and tasteful. ”

White chopped chicken began in the last years of the Qing Dynasty, first appeared in the hotel, made of locally raised Pudong three yellow chicken, the finished chicken was hung in the cooked food window, according to the needs of customers, with the name ......

It's just that there is no such thing in this era, and Fang Jun can only say that he figured it out by himself.

Anyway, he has always been a foodie, and he doesn't have anything to do with "gentlemen cooking" or anything like that in front of him......

Li Xiaogong looked at Li Ke and said, "Have you seen it?" This is the gentleman, eating, drinking and having fun can figure out a different way, where can the bastards outside who pick quarrels and provoke troubles all day long? ”

Li Ke smiled and said: "Uncle Huang is wrong, according to a certain opinion, it is not that Fang Er is unwilling to go to Ma Zhangtai to sleep in the willows, but that this guy has to make a situation every time he goes to play in the Qinglou." I believe that as soon as the girl in the Emperor's Drunken Immortal Mansion saw Fang Erlang, she would rather pay the money and have to find ways to send this guy away......"

teased Fang Jun, and the uncle and nephew looked at each other and laughed.

Fang Jun sighed and said quite depressedly: "Speaking of which, Weichen is really at odds with the Qinglou, who doesn't want to talk about life and ideals with those girls who are proficient in calligraphy and painting, talk about their ideals, and have in-depth exchanges?" But every time I go to the Qinglou, I will have an unexpected situation, and now not only the famous Qinglou in Chang'an is like avoiding snakes and scorpions, but also I have a shadow in my heart......"

The uncle and nephew are hilarious!

Others go to the Qinglou to be happy and happy, but Fang Er, every time I go to the Qinglou, it is a fight and trouble, is it really a strange flower destined to be fate?

The wine and food are light, but they are delicious, far better than a table of delicacies from the mountains and seas, and delicacies. What kind of world have Li Xiaogong and Li Ke never seen? You just made eighty dishes, and the two of them were probably just amazed at the luxury of Fang Jun, but the delicate and delicious dishes with different characteristics on the table in front of them made the two of them even more appreciative.

The staple food is yellow sorghum rice, which is stir-fried with finely chopped sea cucumbers, chicken, and other ingredients, and packed in a container made of fresh bamboo leaves rolled into a rice dumpling, which gives it a rosin flavor and not greasy taste.

The soup is a winter melon soup, and the soup is full of the unique sweetness of winter melon......

After the meal, the maid removed the dishes and leftovers, cleaned up the stone table, made a pot of strong Longjing tea and put it on the stone table, and respectfully retreated.

Leaning on the bamboo chair, holding the fragrant tea, the sun is shining in winter, and the bamboo and flowers around the body are splendid......

Li Xiaogong took a sip of tea and sighed: "I haven't eaten so full for a long time...... When I turn around, the king will send the cook of the house to you, and learn a few hands. Well, there is also this conservatory, and there will be one in the house. ”

He's not bad for money, but it's taste for bad taste......

Compared with Fang Jun's small day, he has a lot of big fish and meat, and there are groups of maids all day long, and the things he uses are all inlaid with gold and jade, precious and gorgeous, which is simply unbearable!

Fang Jun smiled: "What kind of warm house? It's spring, you build such a greenhouse, and squat in it in the summer waiting for maggots? ”

Li Xiaogong glared and said: "After this king is built, he will put it there to dry, waiting for the winter to move in, can't he?" ”

Fang Jun had to say: "Okay, why not?" You are the number one general of the Tang Dynasty, with a lofty status and a wealth that rivals the country, who dares to stop you from what you want to do? It's not crooked. ”

Speaking of "the rich rival the country", Li Xiaogong got back to the point and asked: "Tell me, where did you go to get so much money for the renovation plan of the East Market?" ”

Twenty thousand!

Even Li Xiaogong, who has accumulated countless fortunes and can be called the richest man in the clan, is dizzy in the face of this exaggerated figure.

Li Ke was more concerned about this and looked at Fang Jun.

Fang Jun lifted the teapot and poured tea for the two of them, and said with a smile: "We don't need to make money, now that the approval of the political affairs hall of the three provinces and six ministries is in the hands of a certain person, the renovation of the East Market is something that no one can stop." And the power to rebuild the East City is money! ”

Li Ke was taken aback, and hurriedly said, "Erlang, be cautious!" Now the renovation of the East Market has become a matter of great attention in the entire Tang Dynasty, everyone is staring at the actions of Jingzhao Mansion, once there is a slight mistake, the consequences are unimaginable! ”

He took it for granted that Fang Jun was going to engage in some kind of "power and money trading" and other illegal practices, and all eyes were staring at this piece all day long, if there was a slight violation of law and discipline, there was no need for the imperial historians to impeach him, His Majesty Li Er was the first to jump out and cut you......

Fang Jun couldn't cry or laugh: "Weichen is not stupid enough to be like this, right?" How can you hold the handle of a knife and give it to someone else? ”

Li Ke thought about it, how could Fang Jun be so stupid?

But he became more and more curious about Fang Jun's way of making money, and said strangely: "Come quickly, how do you plan to raise money?" ”

Fang Jun's old god is there, and he has everything under control: "Why do you need to raise money? Jingzhao Mansion has no money, Weichen has no money, and the two of them have no money, but there are so many rich people in this world. It's not smart to do business with your own money, but it's really smart to use other people's money to do your own business! ”

Facing the incomprehensible gazes of the two, Fang Jun slowly spit out two words-

"Get off the bag!"
