After Su Baiyi left, the two old men on the baked cake stall were stunned.

There's a rainstorm an hour later, are you kidding?

Now that the weather is sunny and there is not a trace of clouds, how can there be a torrential rain?

Besides, the weather in May is about to harvest the wheat, and there has never been a rainstorm at this time of year.

"Damn ......" The old man involuntarily let go of the dough in his hand, looking at his wife as if asking for her opinion.

"This scholar, nonsense!"

"Alas!" The old man shook his head, clapped his hands again, and said: "Forget it, I'm tired today, just listen to this little brother, the noodles are not in harmony, and after selling these baked cakes at hand, I will close the stall, whether it rains or not, I have to go home to pick up the place, it's time to cut the wheat!" ”

……

Not far from the side of the road, a little girl waved her hand and ran into the carriage, and as soon as she got into the carriage, she smiled and said to the inside: "Miss, Miss, I just met a fool!" ”

"Fools?"

The curtain of the car moved slightly, and a delicate white face poked out, and when she saw the baked cake in the maid's hand, she couldn't help but smile, and said: "Yue'er, you dead girl, why don't you like to eat baked cakes, get in the car and let's go home, I'm going to die of heat in this carriage!" ”

"Hey!"

Yue'er got into the car, still smiling, and told the young lady what she had just seen.

"What, a rainstorm in an hour?" Shen Meishuang, the third lady of the Shen family, was stunned for a moment, then looked at the big sun outside the curtain and giggled: "Isn't that scholar crazy?" ”

"That's it, I think he will be crazy after falling off the list, or he will pretend to be amazing and deceive other old men and old ladies to eat baked cakes." Yue'er said as she took a bite of the baked baked pancake that was charred on the outside and tender on the inside, and said, "It's delicious." ”

"The world is getting worse and the people's hearts are not ancient, and I can't imagine that there are such unruly people among scholars!" Shen Meishuang shook her head, pulled up the curtains, and said softly: "Let's go, Daddy is looking for a gentleman for his younger brothers and sisters, let's go over and have fun." ”

……

The ancients were honest, and they hadn't learned to be short of catties and short two, as far as Su Baiyi was concerned, half a basin-sized baked cake was enough for him to fill his belly, but he didn't expect the little maid Chunyan to eat a whole by herself.

I can't see it, the little girl is quite edible.

"Have you eaten enough?" Su Baiyi asked.

"Well, it's full!" Chunyan laughed, and said seriously: "Young master, in the future, you are not allowed to go to other people's baked cake stalls to ask for something to eat, you are a scholar, and you will be looked down upon by others if you do this." ”

"Hmm!" was educated by a little girl, he didn't care at all, of course he didn't take it to heart, but he was thinking about making money to eat, and from time to time he entered the system to see if he could pry some cheapness.

It's a pity that this slashing system gives away a free weather forecast, and everything else costs money to obtain.

"Young Master, where are we going now?" Chunyan rubbed his eyes, looked at Su Baiyi and asked.

"Let's go home." Su Baiyi took a deep breath and could only take one step at a time.

With his own perspective beyond history and various modern knowledge, as well as the creation system given by this bull's nose and old way, it is simply not difficult to live a comfortable life in the Ming Dynasty.

Only one thing, with his character since he was a child, the road to the imperial examination can be regarded as a break.

It's just that, no matter what, there must be some original funds to open up the situation, and what Su Baiyi lacks most at present is the original funds.

"What else is of value at home?"

"The house, the bed, the quilt." The spring smoke is like a few treasures, stretching out his fingers and counting them one by one.

Burst......

It's really destitute, you can't sell the small courtyard and the bed, right?

Although I don't need a thick quilt in the summer, the quilt is not worth much.

"Oh, and the book!" Chunyan stretched out a fourth thin, white finger.

"Then sell books!" Su Baiyi gritted his teeth.

Although this decision will definitely be scolded by countless people, it can't be controlled so much now. A guy who has messed into modern society, especially this guy was the son of a businessman before his death, which is very realistic.

Let him sell pork and maybe have a way to live, go to study for the imperial examination, don't even think about it.

Since you can't read, then simply sell the book, the printing technology of the Ming Dynasty is not much developed, and the book is still relatively expensive compared to other items, Su Baiyi remembers clearly, there are not many other things at home, the Four Books and the Five Classics and other messy books have a whole wooden box, and if they are all sold, they should be worth a lot of money.

At least, the original funds are enough!

Back to the small courtyard in the east of the city of Guide Mansion, a two-room thatched hut, a kitchen, and a thick locust tree in the southwest corner of the courtyard, the family was destitute and had no overnight food. This is the home of Su Baiyi and Chunyan Girl.

In the dead drag of the maid, he barely carried a box of books, and then ran to the nearest pawnshop, and came directly to the dead pawn. There was a whole box of books, about fifty or sixty books, and the miscellaneous things added up to a penny and a half.

I really didn't expect books to be so valuable.

But when I got home, I was despised by the maid Chunyan again.

It turned out that the price of each of these books was about 50 wen when they were purchased, and all of them cost about three taels of silver when they were added, but now they are sold for one or a half, which is really a loss.

"Forget it, I don't want to do so much!" Su Baiyi closed his eyes and took a breath, and then said, "Since you have money, you can have a good meal at night, tell me, what do you want to eat?" ”

"Big white steamed buns!" Chunyan is a child after all, and after being slightly tempted by Su Baiyi, he forgot that he would be scolded for selling books, and when he thought of food, he naturally thought of the things he thought about on weekdays first.

"What else?"

"And, well, the pancakes!"

"Poof!" Su Baiyi knocked her on the head: "It's useless, tonight, young master, I'll invite you to eat chicken, spicy chicken!" ”

As he spoke, the sunny day outside suddenly became gloomy.

After three breaths, thunder rumbled!

Dark clouds obscured the sun, and it grew darker and darker, as if it were evening.

"Click!" A thunderbolt sounded, and the raindrops the size of beans fell.

A rainstorm came as scheduled.

I didn't expect it, this dog's bull's nose is not useless at all, it's very powerful, it rains when it rains!

"Young Master! It's raining, it's really raining! Chunyan looked at Su Baiyi with a look of adoration: "Young Master, how do you know that there is a rainstorm today?" ”

"Hey, hey!" Su Baiyi smiled: "Because of the young master, I will be clever." ”

……

Shen family!

Shen Meishuang raised her head and looked at a heavy rain in the sky as scheduled, Qiong's nose was slightly wrinkled, and her pretty white and flawless face looked up at the sky outside the window, looking at the lightning that was like the end of the world, thinking about it.

"Miss, I didn't expect to bump into that guy, it's really raining heavily!"

"yes!" Shen Meishuang sighed softly, and her eyes flashed: "Did you hit it?" Hehe, how do I think this guy is really a little talented? ”

……

The summer rain comes and goes as fast as it comes.

At about four o'clock in the afternoon, the weather returned to sunny, and Su Baiyi now had 1,500 yuan in his hand, so he naturally would not be stingy, and those who were good to themselves naturally should also be good to her.

In order to improve the life of the little maid and by the way, I also beat my own teeth, I bought a fat big rooster from the system, and bought a bucket of Arowana blended oil, a little dried chili, various spices, and a bag of ten catties of Thai fragrant rice.

At the same time, more than two hundred copper plates in his hands disappeared in an instant.

When buying something in the system, a copper plate is about the equivalent of one yuan in the future.

"Young Master, where did you get so many things?" Chunyan's eyes lit up, and he looked at the muscles on the table and the rice saliva was about to run down.

"Bought it!"

"When did you buy it?" Chunyan asked again.

"Just when you were asleep, you went out and bought it!"

"I didn't even fall asleep!"

As soon as Chunyan said this, a real pimple fell on his head, "Oops", and then pouted and wanted to argue, but was scolded by Su Baiyi to go to the fire.

"You cook the rice first, and I'll make you a spicy chicken!" Su Baiyi rolled up his sleeves and was about to go into battle.

The girl Chunyan stood in front of him, and said stubbornly: "The young master often says that the gentleman is far away from the kitchen, these things are done by Chunyan, the young master, you are a scholar, you can't do such a thing." ”

"Whew!" Su Baiyi's eyes widened: "What kind of reader?" What gentleman cooks? This is all an excuse for laziness, besides, from today onwards, young master, I will not be a reader. Hehe, none of you can cook this dish of mine except me. ”

After all, Chunyan couldn't resist Su Baiyi, so he had to obey.

An hour later at the dinner table.

Chunyan ate chicken nuggets, rice at the same time, and drank boiling water, and at the same time kept "hiss, ha, hiss, ha, siha, siha", his eyes were red, his nose was sour, and tears flowed down uncontrollably.

I don't know if it's spicy, or if I've never eaten something so delicious.

"Young master, this, this, it's so spicy, it's delicious, woo woo......"

"Eat slowly, don't choke!" Su Baiyi looked at the appearance of Chunyan eating, and was slightly distressed. In later generations, it was the age to eat all kinds of snacks, but in the spring smoke of the Ming Dynasty, it was rare to even eat meat.

Don't worry, in the future, you will be the only family member of my Su Baiyi, and I will definitely let you live a good life and eat delicious food every day.

Su Baiyi secretly swore in his heart.

As a condiment, chili pepper was carried forward by later generations of Chinese, and desperate Chinese foodies ate from the northeast Mohe to Tengchong in Yunnan, and even the recently established city of Sanya was captured. But who would have thought that this kind of imported product, which only came to China in the late Ming Empire, was originally only used as an ornamental plant.

It wasn't until the Daoguang period of the Qing Dynasty that foodies began to eat this thing, however, it was out of control, and in just over a hundred years, this kind of imported product became popular in China.

Therefore, during the Chongzhen period of the Ming Dynasty, there were chili peppers in Chinese mainland, but no one ate them. After all, who wouldn't have to chew dry chili all day before they tried their hand at cooking?

Therefore, all the dishes related to chili peppers have not appeared so far.

As half a businessman, Su Baiyi's sense of smell is undoubtedly keen, and this business opportunity was instantly captured by him, and it is also the most suitable investment for his current financial situation.

"Bangbang Bang Bang ......" There was a knock on the door: "Is this Su Busu Xiucai's house?" ”

"Slap ......" Before Su Baiyi spoke, the little girl Chunyan heard the knock on the door outside and immediately slapped the gnawed bones in her hand on the table, then quickly stood up, and in less than ten seconds, the chicken, rice, pots and bowls on the table were all packed into the corner of the room. Its degree of agility simply made Su Baiyi breathtaking.
