Xiao Tzu shouted first, Zhao Xibao really couldn't shake off the scorpion on the back of his hand; had to wave his hand to let Liang Houdao serve the food.

Liang Houdao bowed deeply to Zhao Xibao, and said with a laugh: "Wait a minute, the big officials, Xiaomin will cook here; 13 bowls of wine are immediately arranged, and the officials and officials will use tea first! Liang Houdao humbly conceded and left quickly; Walk halfway to the road and shout to a few children, first serve tea, then wine, and finally serve food; Wait for these officials! ”

A few small servants responded to perform their duties, and Liang Houdao went into the kitchen to start operating; The sounds of burning, roasting, frying, frying, boiling, stir-frying, stir-frying, and boiling all kinds of sounds are mixed together in the kitchen; After a little, the 13 bowls of Guanzhong are served to the table in turn.

The utensils used to serve dishes are not plates and saucers, but large bowls and old bowls.

The big old bowl has different shapes, medium and small shapes, and the colors are mixed and beautiful, which is probably the characteristic of Guanzhong food culture.

Guanzhong people add two words in front of the bowl called the big old bowl, and the specifications of the big old bowl are of course not necessarily large; There are large bowls, large old bowls, medium old bowls, and small old bowls; This is the essence of the Western Zhou culture.

The old bowl means big, but the taste bowl is bigger than the old bowl; The medium and small bowls are smaller than the big bowls, and the smaller ones are smaller than the large bowls.

Guan Chinese is the authentic of China, after Qin Shihuang unified the six countries, the car is on the same track, the book is the same text, and the line is the same, and the Qin culture inherited the Zhou culture and began to spread to the surrounding areas of China; The strength of the Western Han Dynasty and the heyday of the Tang Dynasty made Guan Chinese a benchmark for world culture.

The Song Dynasty established by Zhao Kuangyin established Chang'an, the capital of the Golden Kingdom far away from China, after establishing the capital of Bianliang in the capital, the country weakened day by day; The decline of Guan Chinese in the minds of officials directly led to the embarrassing situation of the two Song dynasties being severely beaten by the surrounding Yidi in 319 years; In the end, it must not end in destruction.

After the two Song Dynasties, there was no China, and there was little Chinese; During the Yuan, Ming, Qing and even Beiyang warlord periods, Guanzhong became a poor and weak place; The yield of one mu of wheat has dropped to 74 catties, and you may not believe it, but this is a fact reflected in the statistical table of grain in Guanzhong in the past dynasties made by Yangling Agricultural Science.

The grain output in Guanzhong was more than 200 catties per mu in the Han Dynasty and more than 310 catties in the Tang Dynasty; In the Tang Dynasty, a person in Guanzhong had an average land of more than 100 acres, and you can know how rich their life is.

However, in the period of Beiyang warlords and even the Republic of China, the yield of wheat per mu in Guanzhong Province has been hovering around 100 catties; It is self-evident what the lives of ordinary people look like.

Since the Qin and Han dynasties, Guan Chinese has radiated to the surrounding distant lands, and in the tenth century, the adjacent Daxia, Liao, Uighur, Dali, Hexi Corridor, Turpan Basin, Tarim Basin, Amu Darya River and Syr Darya River in Central Asia have all been invaded by Guan Chinese.

Western Xia was adjacent to Guanzhong, and the ruler was a member of the party; However, it is an indisputable fact that Chinese is authentic.

The first dish on Liang Houdao is the Guanzhong Dapin Bowl - a Dapin bowl contains mixed vegetables and vegetables, plus a bowl of crispy cashew nuts, a bowl of fresh peach kernels, a bowl of small red fruits, and a bowl of sweet melons. Four bowls of cold dishes are counted as only one bowl of dishes.

The next 12 bowls of cold dishes are: a bowl of pork trotters in sauce, a bowl of cured beef, a bowl of fragrant pork ribs, a bowl of braised ear slices, a bowl of black bean curd, a bowl of old tofu, a bowl of green radish, a bowl of green wild vegetables, a bowl of cold cucumbers, a bowl of cold bean sprouts, a bowl of cold shredded potatoes, and a bowl of cold green bamboo shoots.

Zhao Xibao was dumbfounded when he saw it, staring at the 13 bowls of cold vegetables, his eyes beaded and his bones went around for a long time, and he silently muttered in his heart: Straight mother thief, the old man will be slaughtered today; These dishes are accompanied by wine, and I am afraid that I will not be able to pass away without two or three yuan for a table......

Zhao Xibao was thinking in his heart, Liang Houdao and the shopkeeper served 13 bowls of hot dishes; The hot dishes are still big old bowls: a bowl of pot roast chicken, a bowl of peony fish, a bowl of grilled elbows, a bowl of double sea stew, a bowl of sweet rice, a bowl of crispy meat, a bowl of button meat, a bowl of boiled radish, a bowl of oily meat, a bowl of fried shrimp, a bowl of grilled orchids, a bowl of lamb, a bowl of copper pot reunion (big bowl)

Zhao Xibao was completely dumbfounded, there were only 13 dishes in the 13 bowls he knew about Guanzhong; and Liang Houdao served 13 cold dishes; The 13 hot dishes are actually 26 bowls, and if you add the 4 bowls of side dishes in the first course bowl; No more, no less, full 30 bowls.

"My goodness!" Zhao Xibao muttered sharply in his heart: "My old breed has been an official for many years, and I am afraid I have never eaten 30 bowls of Guanzhong dishes; This Guanzhong man named Liang Houdao is also too damn kind? Day. Fucking big. Milk. Head...... What kind of kindness is this? It's clear that you're blinding......"

Zhao Xibao has the feeling of being teased, deceived, and being carried with an awl in his pocket; He wants to theorize with Liang Houdao.

Zhao Xibao stood up, but saw that Xiao Tzuxian's 31 people couldn't hold it back; Babbling and roaring, pounding chopsticks and picking up big food.

Zhao Xibao's eyes were as wide as cowbells, and the corners of his mouth instantly burned out of the bubbles - he was anxious!

Zhao Xibao and Liang Houdao theorized, how to return the vegetables that were poked and smashed by Xiao Tzuxian's 31 people? Another theory is bound to be unpleasant, and Xiao Tzuxian 31 people may ridicule Zhao Xibao for being stingy, slamming the door, and peeling the black beans......

Zhao Xibao thought about it for a long time, and he could only break his arm and put it in his sleeve, and it was difficult to say that he was dumb and bitter when he ate huanghuang.

Xiao Tzuxian's 31 Xiao Cavalry Captains are people from the desolate land, where have they seen 13 bowls of Guanzhong are actually 30 bowls of dishes? When he was enjoying eating, he shouted and shouted, and Zhao Xibao's eyes were already green; But Xiao Tzu had already picked up his wine glass and wanted to him.

Xiao Tzuxian toasted to Zhao Xibao and muttered: "Zhao Daguan is righteous and squandering money, and entertaining our brothers with such a sumptuous banquet; Our brothers are grateful to Zhao Daguan from the bottom of their hearts! ”

Zhao Xibao heard Xiao Tzu say this, and a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind; snickered and said: "The wool came out of the sheep, and I ate 30 bowls of vegetables in Guanzhong; The excess cost will be deducted from the shipping cost......"

Zhao Xibao thought about it in his heart, so he and Xiao Tzu ate and drank 31 people wildly; The table was suddenly full of messes.

Zhao Xibao ate half of the stubble and pretended to be a latrine, walked to Liang Houdao's side and asked: "Township Party Boss Liang, I don't know how much you charge the old man for 13 bowls and a table in this guanzhong?" ”

"Three times money! It's the old Ha style! Liang Houdao replied without thinking: "There are very few guests in the 13 bowls of Dianguan this year, and only a wealthy person like Zhao Daguan has such courage!" Liang Houdao was skillful and flattered Zhao Xibao first.

Zhao Xibao is ignorant, and it is really a bit tricky to think about the 3 yuan of a table of banquets; I wanted to attack again, but Liang Houdao picked up the previous words with a laugh and said: "Zhao Daguanren should charge 12 yuan for 4 tables of wine and food, but Xiaomin saw that Zhao Daguan was generous, so he gave you a discount and only charged ten guan money; Liang Houdao finally added.

This is called one thing descending and one thing descending to a monster, the delicate and clever soldier Zhao Xibao; Can't play the Guanzhong man Liang Houdao who opened a restaurant?

Zhao Xibao saw that Liang was honest and reasonable, and his heresy was oblique; I opened my mouth a few times and wanted to speak, but I didn't know what to say, but I obviously realized in my heart that 3 yuan for a table of wine and food was a bit expensive.

In the Song Dynasty, money was always one tael of silver, and one tael of silver was equivalent to 1,000 yuan in the 21st century in later generations; 3 taels of silver is 3,000 yuan.

3,000 yuan can only be regarded as a medium-grade meal in the 21st century in the future, and tens of thousands of yuan for a table of banquets in later generations is nothing new.

After Zhao Xibao sat down in front of Liang Houdao and confirmed the price of the wine and food, he came to Xiao Tzuxian and toasted him with two glasses and said with a smile: "Brother Cao, we can talk about the freight of your 31 horses to transport salt to Fengxiang Mansion now!" ”

Xiao Tzu first heard Zhao Xibao mention Fengxiang Mansion, and his mind suddenly cleared up most of the time; Pretending to be surprised, he stared at Zhao Xibao and said, "Brother Zhao, you said you want us to transport the salt to Fengxiang Mansion?" ”

"Yes! It is transported to Fengxiang Mansion! Zhao Xibao thought that Xiao Tzu was a long way away, so he smiled and said: "The distance from Yanchi to Fengxiang Mansion is 1310 miles, and my brother will give you 1500 miles; Brother Cao, you set a price, oh yes, it's the freight of a horse! Zhao Xibao was afraid that Xiao Tzu would not understand first, so he added.

Xiao Tzu was happy when he heard the three words of Fengxiang Mansion in his heart, and they were going to Xianghe Bay; And Xianghe Bay is the territory of Fengxiang Mansion, and as soon as 31 Xiao Cavalry Captains arrive at Fengxiang Mansion, it is equivalent to arriving at Xianghe Bay; As for the freight, Xiao Tzuxian didn't pay attention to it at all......
