Chapter 324: The Cook

Although in this false prosperity scene, these measures implemented by Wan Qiyang vaguely really benefited the vast number of working people, and he gradually gained a certain reputation in the hearts of the people, although everyone did not know it. Wan Qiyang's existence of this person, but everyone knows what boss paid to build these houses that are beneficial to their people, and gave them a way to live, there is something to do, money to take and a house to do, where do they get the most direct benefits, what kind of house they live in, as long as these people know, they only need someone to bring up who their boss is, then everyone doesn't understand? And this also made the mediocre dignitaries and nobles in the court gradually lose their understanding of the truth, and the prosperity of vanity made them relax their vigilance, until a big disaster suddenly came, and it was really impossible to stop it when it was about to collapse.

Wan Qiyang has nothing to do this day, the weather has become cooler because of the beginning of autumn, and the construction of his mansion has also come to an end, after all, the economy is not very sluggish now, Wan Qiyang invited the craftsman is naturally given a high price, and the work assigned by everyone is determined, that is, to take the money and leave after doing their own work, therefore, so that the progress of the project is completely one day at a time, and the mansion that could have been built in half a year is now about to be repaired. And after the craftsmen over there finished the work here, they rushed to another place, that is, the construction project of the Sichuan restaurant opened by Wan Qiyang.

During this period of time, basically all the craftsmen around Chengdu Mansion were recruited by Wan Qian.

Today, Wan Qianyang started an experiment on Cheng Mansion, that is, he cooks for everyone, of course, although he cooks and stir-fries, there are many people who really help him, from buying vegetables, selecting ingredients to selecting vegetables and cutting vegetables, he is just under his command, he did not do it himself, because he still has to hand over to the chef of Cheng Mansion to do this, and in the future, Cheng or Bao'er will naturally do it if he wants to eat. What to do in the end is his forte, and Wan Qiyang also invited Zhu Zhishu, the king of Shu, and Zhu Fei, the princess, but the people from other palaces were not invited.

It turned out that Wan Qiyang received the news that Zeng Quan brought over, among which several seeds planted last time all grew out, and the growth is gratifying, such as tomatoes and peppers have been ripe, although these vegetables can still be kept in the field after they are ripe, at least there is no problem to pick them and eat them now, even the fresh potatoes and sweet potatoes Wan Qiyang also let people get some over, only the corn Wan Qiyang let them wait until they are fully ripe to pick, and the fresh and tender corn still broke a few bags.

Therefore, Wan Qiyang's mood at this time is the happiest, because this time not only the seeds brought from overseas have been successfully planted, but also matured within the expected time, the key is that Wan Qiyang has been carefully cultivated and fertilized at different stages of the seed growth cycle, and all are organic fertilizers, plus the soil at this time is also quite fertile, unlike the soil of later generations has been polluted by various types of chemical fertilizers and pesticides, and many soils have been calcified and alkalized very seriously. So at this time, the growth momentum is very smooth, if this goes on until the harvest, Wan Qiyang is also completely relieved, it must be a bumper harvest.

The next harvest is a matter of storage, because Wan Qiyang is going to use corn as a staple food, potatoes and sweet potatoes as a staple food to reserve, but also sell to the outside world, of course, the most important thing is the reserve of seeds.

Peppers and tomatoes are both sold as vegetables, and tomatoes are promoted as high-end foods in these two items, and the main dish is 'scrambled eggs with tomatoes'. Therefore, Wan Qianyang invited Zhu Zhishu, the king of Shu, and Zhu Yuan, the princess, to taste, which means that only noble people can eat good things, and ordinary people can't afford them, because at present, only Wan Qianyang has them, and this is the reason why things are scarce!

In fact, the girls who are most looking forward to this banquet are still these girls who belong to Wan Qiyang, you must know that in this era, the profession of chefs also belongs to the lower ninth-rate industry, how can their men also have this kind of skills, but although they think so in their hearts, they dare not say it, otherwise this kind of behavior is also disrespectful.

In fact, Wan Qiyang also knows that the current feudal society regards the status of various professions as relatively important, and it is very normal for good and high-level occupations to be respected, and it is very normal for bad ones to suffer from white eyes and scolding.

Wan Qiyang took responsibility by example, the purpose is to let them see that there is no distinction between high and low professions, and they know these skills, do you still say that he is an inferior person? So Wan Qiyang doesn't care about everyone's eyes, what he needs is for his plan to be implemented perfectly.

Speaking of these three religions and nine streams, in feudal society, all kinds of occupations are listed quite carefully, ancient China divided people into nine streams according to their identity, and there are more complicated ones such as the upper nine streams, the middle nine streams, and the lower nine streams, such as Ban Gu divided the sons of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period into nine streams:

Confucianism, Taoism, Moism, Legalism, Zonghengjia, Miscellaneous, Famous, Yin-Yang Family, and Peasant Family

It can also be called the Confucian stream, the Taoist stream, and so on. Later, Confucianism and Taoism became "teachings" and Buddhism, and there was the saying of "three religions and nine streams".

Ancient folk divided the characters of the rivers and lakes into upper and lower nine streams:

Upper Nine Streams: Monks, Taoist Priests, Painters, Lang Zhong, Mr. Feng Shui, Fortune Tellers, Mr. Private Schools, Pharmacy;

Lower Nine Ranks: Servants, Servants, Prostitutes, Beggars, Villains, Head Shavers, Pawnshops, Stove Cooks, Bathhouses, Carpenters.

The reason why the first nine types of people have entered the upper class does not seem to be how noble their status is, but that they have frequent contact with the upper class, and they have borrowed a bit of light to shine.

Another division is to classify all the people in society, and there are nine classes: upper, middle, and lower:

Upper Nine Ranks: Emperors, Sages, Hermits, Immortals, Literati, Samurai, Farmers, Industrialists, Merchants.

Middle Nine Streams: Juzi, Doctor, Xiangming, Danqing (Painter), Scholar, Qin Qi, Monk, Dao, Nun.

Lower nine streams: master, yacha, shengzheng (scaleman), matchmaker, pawn, time demon (abduction, witch), theft, theft, prostitution.

The "scholars" who are now called elites are not bad, and they are not up or down and are in the middle of the stream. Basically, it can be summarized as: first-class actors, second-rate pushers, third-rate kings eight, fourth-rate turtles, five shaved heads, six back wives, seven prostitutes, eight thieves, and nine soot blows.

Upper nine streams: first-class Buddha (Shakyamuni), second-rate immortals (Yuan Shi Tianzun, Taishang Laojun, eight immortals, etc.), third-rate emperors (true dragon emperors, feudal emperors), fourth-rate officials (large and small officials), fifth-rate pots (wineries, feudal times were the largest manufacturers), sixth-rate pawns (pawnshops), seven-rate merchants (merchants), eight-guest (manor owners), Jiuzhuang Tian (farmers). This statement seems to have been influenced by the pastoral taste of Taoism)

Middle Nine Streams: First-class Juzi (Lifting People) Second-rate Doctors (Doctors, Lang Zhong, Doctors, Pharmacy Gentlemen) Third-rate Feng Shui (Mr. Feng Shui, Mr. Yin and Yang) Fourth-rate Batch (Batch Eight Characters, Fortune Teller) Five-rate Danqing (Calligraphy and Painting) Sixth-rate Phase (Xiangshi, Looking) Seven Monks (Monks) Eight Dao (Taoists) Jiuqin Qi (Guqin and Go, Symbolic Literati)

Lower nine streams: first-class witches (southern wizards who draw talismans and chant spells to summon gods and exorcise ghosts) second-rate prostitutes (open prostitutes and secret prostitutes) third-rate gods (gods and witches possessed by gods who cure diseases in the form of dancing and singing) fourth-rate bangs (husbands) five-shaved heads (barbers who carry burdens and go to all directions) six blowers (drummers, trumpeters) seven-opera (all kinds of actors) eight-shouting street (beggars) nine-selling sugar (sugar-blowing people) Of course, literally, the upper, middle and lower three "nine-streams" together are 3927 lines, but in fact, even the seventy-two lines are wrapped in it, because
