Chapter 120: Big Pot Rice
In the next few days, as the work deepened, Yan Lide became more and more comfortable in supervising the construction of his pharmacy, and Ye Wen also gained a lot of knowledge. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info But compared with Yan Lide, Ye Wen can only belong to the point of confusion on the construction site, and most of them are Yan Lide in charge of things, and Ye Wen does not need to intervene.
However, Ye Wen is also happy about this, and as the chief official, whenever there is any major decision that Yan Lide needs to ask for his advice, Ye Wen will let Yan Lide take full responsibility, and he is too lazy to be idle.
In order to let Yan Lide do things well, Ye Wen also assured him that when the medicine shop was completed, he would take the initiative to ask for credit for Yan Lide. Yan Lide was naturally overjoyed by this.
In the past few days, "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" has been broadcast two episodes a day, and with the ups and downs of the plot, most of the princes and ministers of Chang'an City are also deeply involved in the plot.
Li Er also sent someone to ask Ye Wen if he could add another episode every day if he couldn't watch two episodes a day.
And Ye Wen of course refused with righteous words, although Ye Wen also wanted to finish it as soon as possible, and then start the next transaction, but Ye Wen couldn't let it go just because Li Er said it, so wouldn't he be very faceless.
At noon, Ye Wen was eating a big pot of rice with Yan Lide on the construction site. At the same time, the public kitchen is the working meal supply system for officials, and many departments have to build a canteen next to the main hall to accommodate all officials who work at the same time.
Some ministers who have watched "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" will get together and say: "Did you watch the Three Kingdoms last night?" "Looked. "Cao Cao, who I watched last night...", then began to discuss "Romance of the Three Kingdoms".
But not everyone likes to watch "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", and some people are not used to watching "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", and denounce "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" for tampering with history, so those who love to watch "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" will no longer chat with him.
And those officials who didn't find Ye Wen to build a house or Ye Wen didn't go to and those who didn't buy it, listened to them discuss "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" on the sidelines, and felt confused and didn't know what it meant.
In the kitchen, the three prime ministers also gathered together to eat and chat. In fact, the Tang Dynasty did not have the official position of prime minister, but when it comes to prime minister, everyone knows that he is the highest and largest official who assists the emperor in handling national affairs.
Because the Tang Dynasty implemented the group system, that is, there was more than one prime minister in the three provinces, and he could be recognized as equivalent to the prime minister by being awarded the official titles of "Tongzhongshu Menxia Sanpin", and enter the political hall to participate in national affairs, as well as eat the most exquisite and high-grade small stove rice. Unlike those officials who ate big pot rice, the emperor would give the food made in his imperial dining room to the "hall chefs" of the prime ministers every once in a while.
It is said that the ancients paid attention to "food without words", and it is right not to talk when eating, but in fact, it is not. But the imperial court not only allowed dinner and chatting, but also encouraged the prime ministers to talk about work while eating. When everyone has food in their stomachs, they will be in a better mood, and many tricky affairs will be solved in eating and drinking. If you only eat for a long time, don't talk about work, and don't work, you will be ridiculed by others as "the prime minister with food", which means similar to a corpse vegetarian meal.
Even if you don't talk about government affairs, you can talk about the customs and anecdotes of your hometown during dinner, which will also help increase your knowledge and promote your feelings. However, even if the chat is rich in content and the atmosphere is relaxed, it does not mean that the etiquette requirements are not strict, after all, political dine-in is a kind of political treatment, and the most basic etiquette requirements must be observed.
It's like the glamorous experience at the little lady's house in Pingkangfang last night, so it's better not to take it to the political hall to talk about.
However, they talked about "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" during dinner, and others would not say much. And when Li Er sometimes chats privately with the eldest grandson Wuji, he will also talk about "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", and he also has the meaning of pointing out the country, such as who I am and what to do, which is also a little hindsight.
Of course, Wei Zhengke, who didn't have a good face during the whole process, didn't participate in the discussion, because he was one of the people who didn't buy it, and he naturally felt angry when he heard that "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" had tampered with history, but it was strange why those people were still chatting so happily.
However, at the same time, it can also be seen the influence of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", after all, "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", as one of the four famous novels, has been tested for many years, and its fame is not covered.
Judging from this posture, those who don't buy it will follow it if they can't say it, and those who don't may go to some homes to see what is good.
At this time, Ye Wen didn't know that the Three Kingdoms fever had become popular among the princes and ministers, and now Ye Wen was eating the big pot of rice on the construction site, with tears in his eyes, and at the same time secretly blamed himself for being cheap a few days ago.
After all, in the hierarchical society of the Tang Dynasty, he was an official, and the rank of the official was not low. In any case, I will not eat a big pot of rice with those workers, but there will be another small stove. But Ye Wen, who came to the Tang Dynasty from later generations, where would there be bureaucracy, but proposed to eat a big pot of rice with the workers.
But the Tang Dynasty was not a later generation, and in later generations, no matter how unpalatable the workers' food was, it would not be difficult to swallow. In the Tang Dynasty, even if stir-fried vegetables were brought over by Ye Wen in advance, it was only popular among the princes and ministers, not among the people, and it was impossible to apply it on the construction site.
Therefore, the construction site rice that Ye Wen eats is generally boiled, and the vegetables are also boiled, and there are no seasonings, even the salt is not as white as the salt of later generations, and there is a strange smell when it smells.
This kind of rice, how could Ye Wen, who was used to eating meals from later generations, eat it, but if he said it, he would spill the water. Ye Wen didn't want to go against his words, so he had to bite the bullet and force it, and he had to go to the toilet every time he finished eating.
But the toilet is also a public toilet, of course there is no flushing toilet, plus the summer has not passed. After a day or two, the newly built toilet stinks, and the flies in it are flying everywhere, and most of Ye Wen goes to the wild to find a place to solve it, and at the same time pays attention to the thunder caused by himself or others.
These days, Ye Wen has lived an extremely hard life, and he has never been like this in the deep mountains and forests before.
Every time he eats at noon, Ye Wen will say, "I don't eat much, I eat less." "In fact, secretly, when Ye Wen was lazy, he ate a lot of snacks.
However, it is not without benefits to Ye Wen in doing so, and the workers on the construction site feel that although Ye Wen is not often in charge, he is quite approachable and has a much better reputation.
Ye Wen quickly finished the meal, and saw Yan Lide eating a big pot of rice like himself on the side, Yan Lide did not dislike the big pot of rice is not good, Yan Lide has experienced the war of the Sui and Tang Dynasties, and has also suffered a lot, which is nothing to him.
This made Ye Wen also depressed, and there was no one who shared the suffering.
