Chapter 290: Cao Mengde's Zhang Zifang?

Last time, it was said that Liang Xu felt unacceptable to the fasting, bathing, and burning incense prepared before entering the palace for three days.

In addition to not being able to accept fasting for three days, the rules of bathing also made Liang Xu uncomfortable.

This is not to say that after Liang Xu arrived in the Eastern Han Dynasty, he changed his habit of taking a bath every day in his previous life.

Most of the people in Dahan not only have to work tirelessly to complete their work, but they also get stinky sweat after completing their work, and they can't take a shower every day. One is that they are too tired to move, and the other is that the cost of bathing is not something they can accept casually. If you take a bath every day, it is estimated that you will not be able to open the pot at home.

And Liang Xu doesn't have much now, but he has a lot of money, so he can still ensure that he has enough firewood to boil water and bathe every day.

So even if there is no need to enter the palace, Liang Xu insists on taking a bath at least once a day when he has the conditions, and in the summer when he doesn't need to boil water, he washes several times a day.

So there is no problem with the bath itself, the problem is the incense that is connected to the bath.

Burning incense is incense. Instead of directly lighting the incense used to worship the gods and Buddhas in the temple, specific raw materials are made into spices in a special way, and then these spices are placed in the incense burner and roasted with charcoal fire to force out the fragrance in the spices.

If you just smoke your clothes with incense like Xun Yu, Liang Xu can still accept it, but the rules for entering the palace require that people be smoked. Liang Xu thought that he was not salmon or ham, and in his previous life, he even felt the pungent smell of women's perfumes, and he felt that he would definitely not be able to stand being smoked by others.

No matter how good Xiao Guizi said, Liang Xu just didn't agree to fasting, bathing and burning incense, and he refused even for half a day, let alone three days in a row.

Xiao Guizi knew that Liang Xu was favored in front of Zhang Rang, and it was not easy to force him to comply, so he could only look at Xun Yu as if asking for help, and wanted Xun Yu to come forward to help persuade this little ancestor, after all, Xun Yu was Liang Xu's teacher, and what he said should be more effective.

Xun Yu also felt that Liang Xu was messing around, and just now he agreed to let Zhang Rang enter the palace, but now he regrets it.

Xun Yu knew this student of his, just now he promised Zhang Rang that he must have come down because he was afraid of death, but now that Zhang Rang was not at the scene, he forgot the consequences of not cooperating.

So Xun Yu pulled Liang Xu aside and threatened him: "Are you not afraid of offending your Uncle Zhang?" ”

Liang Xu looked at Xun Yu with a bitter face and said, "But ......"

Xun Yu interrupted Liang Xu's words and said, "Don't be, you have already agreed to Zhang Rang just now." ”

Just when Liang Xu was bargaining with Xiao Guizi in Zhang Rang's mansion for the palace entry regulations, Xi Zhong and Guo Jia were not willing to be lonely, and they decided to take advantage of the absence of Xun Yu and Liang Xu to go to Fangze Pavilion, the largest in the capital, to see and understand.

Why take advantage of Xun Yu and Liang Xu's absence? Because at this time, they were able to oppress their students and order their students to pool money for dinner.

They have long been tired of eating the "canteen" of Dongping Group, although the food is really delicious, and there are fragrant stir-fried dishes that cannot be eaten elsewhere, but there is always something missing that can stimulate talent.

Today, they want to take advantage of this great opportunity to stimulate their talents.

Please support the author, please go to QQ Reading, Start Reading or any other website under China Literature to support the author, I am very grateful.

It is mentioned here that only the restaurants under the Dongping Group can produce stir-fried dishes, because there were no pots in the Eastern Han Dynasty. The pot did not appear until the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, and the newborn pot was still made of copper. In ancient China, copper was used to mint money, and at that time, copper was used as a wok, and cooking was really burning money, but fortunately, copper would not be burned to ashes all at once.

Because the woks have not yet been launched, Liang Xu took advantage of the loophole and let him "invent" it.

In addition to the need for a wok, the amount of cooking oil used is also more than that of the main cooking utensils kettle used in the Eastern Han Dynasty. The edible oil of the Eastern Han Dynasty is mainly sesame oil, but the production of sesame seeds is low, resulting in the price of sesame oil cannot be reduced at all.

In order to save costs, Liang Xu came up with blending oil. In order to cover the fishy smell of soybean oil, he tried to mix sesame oil into it, but the effect was still a little unsatisfactory, but it was much better than using soybean oil alone to make the dishes smell fishy and unpleasant, or sesame oil alone was prohibitively expensive.

Moreover, the blended oil made by Liang Xu, because the output is considerable, can also add a commodity to Dongping Food for sale.

Xi Zhong and Guo Jia gathered their students together and announced their intention to solicit bribes in public.

Although Tai Shici and they were reluctant, after all, they were teachers for one day and fathers for life, and when the teacher opened his mouth, the students couldn't help but listen.

But it's one thing to be obedient, it's another to be able to take it out. Fangze Pavilion is the most famous green building in the capital, and the people who can go there to consume are all local tyrants. Therefore, Tai Shici and Zhao Feng, who are not in good condition at home, can't even come up with the money to go to Fangze Pavilion to drink a pot of wine.

And Liang Sheng has a deep hatred of the rich gene, he is most disgusted with the corrupt life of the rich, if it weren't for the bunch of things that Liang Xu made that ordinary people couldn't afford to consume, so that the Yellow Turban Army lived a life without worrying about firewood and rice, according to Liang Sheng's upright temperament, he would definitely give Liang Xu a stinky face.

So Liang Sheng simply played a bachelor's game, and said to Xi Zhong and Guo Jia: "If the students want money, they have a fate, if the teachers can see it, they can take it casually!" made Xi Zhong and Guo Jia look at each other, and there was nothing they could do about Liang Sheng.

In the end, Xi Zhong and Guo Jia extended their claws to Zhao Fan, who was "stupid and rich".

Zhao Fan has been too well protected by his brother before, so he has flaws in his personality, and his self-confidence is seriously lacking. He was afraid that if he refused the teachers, he would be punished by the teachers, so he obediently gave the teachers the prostitution money they needed.

Xi Zhong and Guo Jia got the money, so they left their students and went out together contentedly, they didn't think about "inviting" their students to see and see.

It's not the first time they've come to Luoyang, so it's not the first time they've gone to Fangze Pavilion, it's just that they didn't have so much money on them before, and they weren't allowed to enter.

The two knew each other well, and soon went to Fangze Pavilion.

The guards of Fang Ze Pavilion saw that the clothes and fabrics on the two of them were normal, so they took action to stop them.

Xi Zhong took out the money bag squeezed from Zhao Fan's body and shook it in front of the doorman of Fangze Pavilion, asking the doorman to listen to the voice inside. The doorman let them in.
