In the kitchen, Liang Shanbo was stir-frying while thinking about it.

When I first crossed over, the biggest trouble I encountered was eating. People in this era cook with one word, cook. No matter what the dish, it is boiled in a large pot. After boiling, add sesame oil, that is, sesame oil. Of course, rich people also cook and fry in sesame oil. Apart from sesame oil, there seems to be no other oil in this era.

Later, he and Sijiu used a stone mill to grind soybean oil, and used soybean oil to fry vegetables in an iron pot, which solved the problem of eating.

Liang Shanbo makes home-cooked dishes, such as vinegared yams, stewed pork ribs, scrambled eggs with cucumbers, fried meat with loofahs, etc.

Liang Shanbo fried in the kitchen, and Zhu Yingtai and Xie Daoyun ate in the living room. Four dishes were served first, and Zhu Yingtai said that it was not enough to come to two more. In the end, I fried four more and put them in the food box, which seemed to be taken away.

Xie Daoyun was much more affectionate to Liang Shanbo when he left. Looking at the expression, it is obvious that there is a feeling of wish fulfillment and unexpected gain, as if buying a lottery ticket and winning the jackpot.

As soon as Xie Daoyun left, Liang Shanbo asked Zhu Yingtai what they had talked about. Zhu Yingtai proudly told him:

"The Xie family orders two hundred jars of the best three cups every month." One jar of three cups of the best is twenty taels, and two hundred jars are six thousand taels. Remove the cost of 1,000 taels and make a net profit of 5,000 taels. At this reckoning, Shanbo suddenly became excited.

"She also ordered fifty Eight Immortal Tables and a hundred Taishi chairs."

"She said she would build a courtyard near our house, and she would come and stay for a few days when she wanted to eat your cooking." Liang Shanbo's jaw clicked and fell to the ground. Selling cakes, building a courtyard for a meal, is really a typical rich and capricious!

She also ordered fifty small blackboards. also said that the small blackboard can only be sold to the Xie family, and there are as many as you want. ”

"He also said that you should personally go and deliver the wine to the Dongshan Villa."

"Well, why let me deliver it myself, I'm busy. Well, since you agreed, I'll reluctantly go. ”

When Xie Daoyun returned to Dongshan Villa, it was already time for dinner. She immediately sent some meals to Xie Xuan, and also sent some to Xie An.

When Xie Xuan saw the meal he was thinking about in his dream, his eyes lit up, and he pounced like a wolf, and he didn't need to use the chopsticks directly.

Seeing that Xie Daoyun was angry and laughing, he raised his hand and slapped Xie Xuan's head, and he knew how to eat, in addition to eating, he also knew what to do. Xie Xuan smiled, don't look at the eldest sister who is strict with him, but she also loves him the most. At home, Xie Daoyun is the largest, and there are seven younger brothers and three younger sisters below, and Xie Xuan is the youngest brother. The eldest sister is like a mother, and the relationship between the eldest sister and the younger brother is like a mother and son.

Xie Xuan said while eating, "Sister, I can make wine." It is to make a large cauldron, pour wine, and then burn the fire underneath, and you will have good wine. ”

Xie An sent someone to invite Xie Daoyun to the study to speak.

Without waiting for Xie An to ask, Xie Daoyun told him about the situation of going to Liang's house.

I ordered a large number of goods, including three cups of pour, eight immortal tables, and Taishi chairs. The little blackboard they promised to sell only to us. You can go to their house to play and eat at their house. I'm also going to build a separate courtyard there so that I can live in it when I go to play. Liang Shanbo may come to deliver wine.

Xie An couldn't stop nodding after hearing this, Ah Yuan did a good job in this matter, and it was really my family's talent. Then he commanded without question: "When the little blackboard arrives, it must be destroyed immediately, and it must not be seen by outsiders." Even the juvenile part must be destroyed immediately. ”

Xie An asked puzzledly, "Why did you say that you might come to deliver wine, aren't you seeing me?" ”

Xie Daoyun said: "I saw me, but it was his sister Zhu Bajie who was talking to me. Sister Bajie said that she had the final say in the Liang family's business. Sister Bajie also likes to dress up as a man, and I hit it off at first sight. After a conversation, the above intentions were reached, and of course, the real contract still needs to be decided by the uncle. ”

Xie An said: "Then hurry up and prepare." When Liang Shanbo comes, two things must be completed. One is to complete the poem, and the other is to sign a contract that the blackboard will not be exported. ”

The next day, Xie Daoyun couldn't find Xie Xuan everywhere, and finally found him in the kitchen. Xie Xuan is directing a group of chefs to make sake. There is a large cauldron on the stove, and there is a bamboo tube connecting the lid and the wine jar. The pot was filled with wine, and the fire was raging under the stove. Xie Xuan still didn't think the fire was strong enough, so he urged vigorously: "Burn, burn, the bigger the fire, the better." ”

The wine in the pot was "gurgling" and steaming on the lid. Finally, there were dripping drops of wine in the vat, like rain.

Under the high fire, the wine in the pot quickly boiled dry. There is only a shallow layer in the vat. Xie Xuan thought that this was three glasses of the same good wine, so he picked up the spoon and tasted it. As soon as the wine was in his mouth, Xie Xuan spit it out with a "poof", which was even more bland and unpleasant than the original wine.

"No, people are sakemakers, why can't I?" Xie Xuan was still talking to himself there.

Caught off guard, his ears were grabbed, Xie Xuan looked back, and it turned out to be Sister Dao Yun.

"Sister, what are you doing with my ears, let it go, it hurts!"

Xie Daoyun not only did not let go, but squeezed it tighter. He said to the chefs around him: "Youdu is a child, naughty and ignorant, why do you also mess around with him." If I leak the news, I will definitely tell my uncle and punish him severely. After speaking, he took Xie Xuan to her study.

"You, do you know what you're doing wrong?"

"Sister, what's wrong with me, if I also make that three-cup pour, wouldn't our Xie family have to spend so much money to buy it? I'm doing this for the good of our family, and you should praise me. ”

"Youdu, do you really think so? What a foolishness! Dao Yun sighed and looked at Xie Xuan in disappointment.

Xie Xuan looked up at his sister for some reason, and then lowered his head again. The meaning has been smarter than him since he was a child, and if my sister is wrong, the eight achievements are wrong.

Xie Daoyun continued, but his tone was much softer, and Xie Xuan also listened carefully.

"People know that the three cups are produced by the Liang family, if our Xie family makes a similar wine, what will the world think of our Xie family? Steal or rob! The dignified Xie family actually went to rob a thing from a poor family of the Shu clan, isn't it shameful? What is the reputation of our Xie family?

Youdu, you're still young, and you don't know how important prestige is to the family. But you must not be so reckless in what you do, and at least think twice. If you don't know how to decide, you should consult the elderly. ”

Xie Xuan finally knew that he was wrong, lowered his head and stopped talking.

"If you do something wrong, you will be punished. Grounded for a month, study and practice calligraphy at home. Xie Daoyun said ruthlessly.

Xie Xuan's tears of grievance flowed down, "Sister, what should I do when I eat?" I still want to eat the food cooked by the Liang family?"

"Don't worry, someone will come and deliver it to you. Well, stop crying. Come, my sister will tell you a story about Journey to the West, there is a Monkey King Zhu Bajie in it, which is amazing. ”

After Xie An heard about this, he sent someone to dismantle Xie Xuan's wine-making facility and strictly ordered everyone not to leak it. Back in the study, Xie An asked his cronies to invite the family's sake brewer.

The winemaker of the Xie family is an old man, named Xie Kangming, who is a distant relative of the Xie family and has been making wine in the Xie family for decades. After listening to Xie An say about Xie Xuan's wine-making, he was very surprised: "It's so easy to brew three cups, just put it in a cauldron and cook it." If this is the case, please allow me to try it, and within three months, I will make three cups of our Xie family. ”

If you can really make three cups of the Xie family, you will save a huge amount of money, not to mention, you will no longer have to deal with that poor boy from Liang Shanbo. Xie An nodded and said, "You can try as boldly as you can, and I will have a lot of prizes for making it." It's just that this matter must be kept secret, and no one can let him know, especially Dao Yun. ”
