Chapter 126: Fengle New Building
Du Yan has been depressed in Jiangnan for several years, with constant nostalgia, and he passes the time with wine every day; Jiao Jun is a good drinker, who mixes with characters from three religions and nine streams on weekdays, and is drunk and dreams all day long. The two of them followed and tried it, and they were also full of praise, Yang Chong treated the guests with wine, and said: "Drink slowly, there is only one bottle today, and the wine of the Yuwen family is still on the back, it is enough." ”
Zhou Qian drank a glass of wine and said with a retrospective taste: "Yang Chong, Yuhaizhai can also do wine business. ”
Yang Chong shook his head and said: "I can't do it, the cost of this wine is too high, a bottle of wine costs ten taels of silver, and the output can't go up, you just want me to supply a large amount, and I can't supply it." A few days ago, when King Guan and Yang Hao, the patriarch of Shenmutang, came, I already said that this is a little bit of my heart for the Hongnong Yang family, and I pay a hundred bottles of tribute to the palace every year, and it will be expanded in the future, and it will also be arranged by the royal family. There were only ten bottles of the first batch, and the king took one bottle, and eight more bottles were sent to the palace, and the next ten bottles had to wait for a month. ”
Du Yan's face was already a little red, and he said with a wine glass: "I know, not only do you lack craftsmen for winemaking, but also the equipment for making wine is special and needs to be maintained, you can't find so many people with good skills." ”
Zhou Qian secretly praised, Du Yan was right, Yang Chong is not a family, there is no accumulation in craftsmen, almost all of them are half-baked goods bought from the market, Yang Chong will be trained again, if it is not for Lou Guandao to send a few people, Yang Chong may only have himself in battle. Yang Chong looked at Du Yan in surprise and asked, "I didn't expect that Lord Du was also proficient in Gewu, it was really like seeing it with my own eyes." ”
Du Yan straightened his waist and said, "I just like it." Yang Chong, let me ask you, you said that the earth is round, can you prove it to me? ”
Yang Chong thought for a while and said, "Yes, but I need time to find materials and make equipment, and some materials don't know if I can find them." Brother Du, let me stammer, ten years, can you wait? ”
Du Yan laughed and said: "Yang Chong, I like your style, don't fake, you and I will be friends in the future." Ten years, no problem, as long as you can let me see it in my lifetime, I will be satisfied. ”
While talking, roast lamb chops, braised lamb scorpions, fried lamb tripe, and steamed lamb were served one after another. The roasted lamb chops are charred on the outside and tender on the inside, and the meat is rotten and fragrant; The sheep scorpion has a delicious taste and a thick soup; Stir-fried lamb tripe with shredded bamboo shoots and dogwood sauce, spicy and delicious; The meat of steamed lamb with bones is steamed until crispy, and the meat is soft and tender, and the green onion is fragrant. Jiao Jun said while eating: "Lord Yang, this is the dish you are going to launch in the restaurant?" ”
Yang Chong nodded and said, "Brother Jiao, you are a student of Master Zhou, we will call each other by name in the future, whatever you want." This is part of the dishes in the restaurant, and I am also going to launch a dish made of pork in the restaurant, but Brother Du is from a famous family and does not dare to blaspheme, so he did not serve it today. ”
Du Yan waved his hand and said: "I don't care, I don't know how much pork I ate in Jiangnan, Yang Chong, continue to go." ”
Zhou Qian saw Yang Chong asking for his opinion, rolled his eyes and said, "Jiao Jun and I have no problem, it's just that it doesn't taste good, so I'll throw it away." ”
Yang Chong immediately asked the maidservant to inform the kitchen, and successively served braised pork, popped kidney flowers, fried large intestines, and sauced meat; Zhou Qian and the three of them ate very satisfied, and they ate a meal until the end of the lamp. However, Yang Chong still really admired the amount of alcohol that the three of them had, and after sharing a bottle of distilled spirit, they each drank a jar of liquor, which was worthy of a large amount; Yang Chong was afraid that something would happen, so he asked Wei Chili to drive the carriage and send the three of them home separately.
Yang Chong returned to the study, Jiang Fei came in with a half copper basin of hot water, and asked Yang Chong to wash his face to remove the wine, Yang Chong put down the towel after washing his face and said, "I'm too tired." Old Man Zhou is also suspicious of me now, and he came to pull Jiao Jun just to cover my bottom. ”
Jiang Fei said with a smile: "I can see it, I saw it when they were going to eat pork, in order to continue to stay." However, the four of you are cautious enough, and you haven't talked about these cases that are now sensational in Chang'an from beginning to end. ”
"What are you talking about, I was assassinated, Old Man Zhou and Jiao Jun are handling the case, and they are afraid that they will be used for the wrong sentence, so they can only be tested from the side." Yang Chong sighed, and began to plan the affairs of the restaurant: "I got up early to get up the name of the restaurant, it is called Fengle Building, and the shopkeeper of the restaurant must be Yuan Hongzhao, so I will let Miao Yun take care of it in the future." ”
Yang Chong remembered the name of this Song Dynasty restaurant because of the allusion of Fengle Building. Song has the Northern Song Dynasty and the Southern Song Dynasty, Fengle Building also has two in the north and south, the Northern Song Dynasty Kaifeng Fengle Building is in Mahang Street, formerly known as Bailu Building, also called Fan Building, it is said that ascending the highest building, you can see the beautiful scenery in the palace not far away; Hangzhou Fengle Building is also brilliant, and its business is so good that it is accepted as an official treasury by the prefect of Lin'an, which has not only become a government-run restaurant, but also an autocracy of liquor tax.
Yang Chong has been to Kaifeng after a thousand years to rebuild Fengle Building, which is completely a tourist attraction, Fengle Building is hidden in a large imitation of the Song Dynasty buildings, a river runs through it, the scenery is beautiful, but for a foodie, the lack of the connotation of the restaurant, the only thing that Yang Chong remembers is the two poems on the powder wall, "Yinghua Xiaogu Qiluo Cong, people in the Xihe realm". Yang Chong also wanted to open the restaurant to that realm, Jiang Fei thought about it, and agreed to Yang Chong's arrangement.
The next day, Yang Chong went to Daye Fang to accept the restaurant, the shopkeeper and the guys of the restaurant were all from the Du family, and they had been arranged by the Du family to other places, and only the two chefs invited by Du Yan stayed; Yuan Hongzhao brought two cooks from Yang's mansion and began to recruit relevant workers in the market. Yang Chong sent carpenters to configure all the Eight Immortal Tables and benches on the first floor; Half of the pavilion on the second floor is equipped with eight immortal tables and chairs, and half retains the original dining table; The new plaque is the word inscribed by Yang Gongren, a small seal.
Yang Chong stayed in Fengle Building every day for the next few days, and on this day Yang Chong was pointing, Zhou Qian walked in with a tiger face, pulled Yang Chong to the corner compartment, stared at Yang Chong and asked, "Boy, you didn't make the list, did you?" ”
Yang Chong's heart was as calm as water, and his eyes asked rhetorically without blinking: "What list?" ”
"The list of the old Hantang." Zhou Qian couldn't see anything abnormal, and replied: "Last night, the flying knife sent a book to the six yamen, and said five more names, Changsun Sheng went to the book early this morning to resign, looking at his body, it is estimated that he will not live long." Except for the interior of the Suihan Hall, only you have cracked the personnel of the Suihantang. ”
This is the credit of Jiang Fei's gang last night, but the place where the flying knife was left behind, Yang Chong shouted: "Old man, I am not alone in interrogating the case, and there is no trial record for any time." ”
Zhou Qian said with a straight face: "I didn't say it must be you, didn't we chat in private?" By the way, when will you go to Yuhaizhai to see jewelry? ”
Yang Chong hurriedly agreed: "Tomorrow." Finish the restaurant today, and go over with Jiang Fei tomorrow. ”
