Chapter 160: Home-cooked food is the finest
Listening to his son's words, Zhang Zhong was not surprised at all, he had long been accustomed to the skills of his son and daughter-in-law, no wonder he had to stop at Kaifeng to buy seeds and farm tools.
"Okay, I'll arrange it." Zhang Zhong gently pinched his son, who was listening curiously to his brother and father with wide eyes, and got up to leave.
"Dad, don't be in a hurry, if you can delay it for two days, just do it in the usual way, first let people secretly transport the seeds and farm tools to the counties, Dad, you will find the businessman here who is in charge of two things to talk, listen to what they say, delay one more day, they will use another plan one day later, and the child will wait for the other hand to be ready."
Zhang Xiaobao saw that his father was going to implement it immediately, so he hurriedly stopped him, his arrangement was still a little close, and he was afraid that the local people would see that the plan would be broken as soon as he came out, so he immediately made another plan.
Zhang Zhong thought about it, nodded in agreement, isn't it just to eat and drink with the local people, and then look at the faces of the people, simple, and see what they can do.
Waiting for Zhang Zhong to leave, Wang Juan curiously approached Zhang Xiaobao, "Xiaobao, how do you know that they want to do this?" ”
"How do I know, I just prepared in advance what might happen, and I just used common methods, and there are only a few ways to embarrass local officials, and they are always changing.
When I came, I made preparations with both hands, and if we were embarrassed by this matter, we would send things, and we would not have to be embarrassed at this time, but we would also send them, not all the people would be able to use the new plow, and not all the people would be able to plant good seeds.
Tool money and seed money are out of our family, give him a satisfactory answer, or in the name of his Li family clan, how good, he gets more taxes and taxes, and he has a good reputation, my father next I want to go to Luoyang, two sets of government teams, Luoyang's power struggle is not as bloody as the capital, more adaptable. ”
Zhang Xiaobao explained to Wang Juan, Wang Juan nodded understandingly, she really thought that Zhang Xiaobao could pinch it just now, it turned out to be an arrangement based on historical experience.
He dipped his hand in some coconut oil pearl paste in the shell and gently rubbed it on both sides of his younger siblings' noses and around his mouth, and said: "Be careful when feeding fruits in the future, rub the side of your mouth, and rub the skin again, look at it, it's all red." ”
"That's sun-dried, and you can still burst your skin with a small shell for a hundred dollars? When the northern trade routes were stabilized, the imperial court built a factory there to transport shells from the south, and then used the fat of cattle, sheep, and various animals from the north to make hand and face guards, and sold them back to the north. ”
Zhang Xiaobao changed his younger brother's position, shook him gently, let him sleep, and said a deal to Wang Juan at will.
"It's okay to stick a piece of tin foil with a wooden box, but what are you doing with shells?" Wang Juan kissed his sister on the face, and what he got was a series of giggles.
"That's different, what is sold is shells, there is no sea there, usually the big lake or blisters and other places are called haizi, when using our products, the shells in the sea themselves are a status symbol, if the meat is not convenient to transport back and forth, just choose a place around the local area to dig a cellar and freeze it."
"What are you doing with so much frozen meat? Want to hit the market? Wang Juan heard something else from Zhang Xiaobao's words.
"It has nothing to do with the market, let's freeze it, you can still eat it after two or three years of freezing, which is longer than the time it can be stored in cans." Zhang Xiaobao's eyes looked to the north and said mysteriously.
Wang Juan pondered for a while, but still didn't think of what Zhang Xiaobao was going to do when he hoarded meat, and said: "It's better to make some canned food and sell it, there is not much technology, the sealing and air pressure are easy to solve, it is really not possible to leave a deflated mouth, and pinch it with pliers while it is hot."
I found out that there are many places where you can eat meat, and there are many local meats that are cheap, especially fish, because of the inconvenient transportation, the price of meat in places with less meat is too high, and ordinary people can't afford to eat it. ”
"If you don't do it, you can't afford to pay for it, the rich people can eat it no matter how expensive the meat is, your method can only be used for the middle class, and the poor still can't eat it, and there is no railway, and there is no highway, and you can't transport a ton of canned food over, and you can't consume two tons of food."
Even if you use the waterway, what do you use to make the canned scalp? With iron? If iron weren't valuable, there wouldn't be so many wheels made of wood, and the iron on the outer bagels would be wearable. ”
"Then don't do it, find more craftsmen to burn the kiln, most people still use wooden bowls, buckets and water tanks are wood, it is inconvenient to use, it is easy to breed bacteria, why don't you sell the soap we make? It's my own home. ”
Wang Juan estimated the price of the iron, and gave up the idea of letting more people eat meat, and instead asked about another soap that could be used normally.
Zhang Xiaobao put his younger brother, who was already asleep, on the small bed next to him, "It's not that I don't want to sell, but I don't dare to sell, the glass doesn't really sell much now, the asking price is very high, and most of the glass made is to produce other things we need, or give it away."
Such a high price, in exchange for you, don't you care? Especially that thing can also make telescopes, Li Longji is now seeking stability, and all the original heroes have been cleaned up, even my grandfather, who has never met him, that is, my grandfather, has been cleaned up, if it wasn't for that time, my mother wouldn't be able to escape.
Oops, as soon as I said it, I just remembered, when I came here, I didn't go to see when I passed by my grandfather's house, it was my grandfather's father-in-law's house, it was the Yangtze River, a good place, tea on the top of Mengshan Mountain, the heart of the Yangtze River, go and see it. ”
"I don't like to drink Mengshan tea, I am not used to drinking black tea, it is estimated that the spring water in the middle of the Yangtze River is heavy water, that is, water with many minerals, and then with black tea, drink it to the mouth of the mouth, you haven't said what to do with soap."
Wang Juan shuddered when she heard the tea on the top of Mengshan Mountain, she had drunk it before, and she had a bad stomach when she drank it, and then she refused black tea, only drinking green tea, and semi-fermented ones could occasionally drink a little.
"When we have a large pig farm, when will we be able to give the recipe to Li Longji, and when he makes half a year's money, we can follow behind and sell, this thing consumes daily necessities, and the rich and noble have been using it, and our method is just to add things that cost less and make them faster.
Now the consequence of making a large number of people is that many people can not eat lard and fat sausage, the key is the grain, or pigweed, in the past two years in Shuzhou, I am ready to continue to teach the local people the method of pig, duck and fish breeding.
As long as this time is successful, then the imperial court should publicize it to more places suitable for using this method, and the upfront cost investment is a problem. ”
Zhang Xiaobao wants to use his own methods to influence more people, and the current officials can at least do something practical.
"I think the biggest problem is that the population is too small, as long as there is a little disaster or something, it will have a great impact, the population is small, productivity cannot be improved, the total amount of survival resources is small, and there will be a fault line in the allocation of social resources.
Just like many small countries, the per capita living standard is high, but once a special situation is encountered, tens of billions of dollars can bankrupt the country, a national disaster comes down, the country is finished, a big country, after the means of production complement each other, a region is affected, and this loss can be passed on to other regions, the larger the base, the more stable the macro level, and tens of billions of dollars thrown into it will not even make a splash. ”
Wang Juan has his own opinions.
Zhang Xiaobao pondered it and felt that this was indeed the case, but in fact, the production technology was backward and could only be made up for by relying on the number of people.
"No matter, I'll talk about it when my father's position is high enough, let's go, and go to Grandpa Bi to study." Zhang Xiaobao beckoned the maid to come in and watch the little ones, and went out to study with Wang Juan.
Zhang Zhong also arrived at the place at this time, he has not had many things to do since he took office, and the copywriting and brochures left by the previous term have been piled up and piled up, and others have been busy and confused, but unfortunately, this trick is useless to Zhang Zhong, and fifty people from the inner courtyard can help sort it out.
Luzhou did not go in vain, the people in the inner courtyard who used to follow the theory have been trained in Luzhou, and they have understood all aspects, and now Zhang Zhong is full of confidence, giving him a state capital without any officials, and he can immediately use the people of the inner court to support all the county officials.
It is useless for anyone to use a large number of documents to press him, let alone a person who specializes in cultivating in this direction, and even the side dishes in the kitchen usually hum a few sentences, just like in the middle of the water.
All because Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan want to build a family heritage, Zhang Xiaobao's ultimate requirement is that the pig breeders of Zhang and Wang can be admitted to the imperial examination, which is more powerful than the same literati, because they can't raise pigs.
This is really not difficult for the Zhang and Wang families, as long as Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan have learned, the two of them will be compiled into a booklet, and the difficulties will be explained in the vernacular, unlike the master who teaches people pretending to be profound, and obviously very simple things have to be complicated.
The inner courtyards of the two families can discuss each other in normal times, and if they can't find Mrs. and Zhang Zhong to ask, as well as Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan, if the family can't do it, then look for Old Man Bi, Old Man Bi can't figure it out, Zhang Xiaobao will fly a pigeon for a question and ask Old Man Bi to ask someone else.
Old man Bi is Bi Gou, he has been a member of Zuo Shizhi and Zhongshushe, and he has also done the history of the assassination of the four states of Runzhou, Weizhou, Tongzhou, and Shaanzhou, and has been a long history in Yizhou, and has been a doctor of imperial history, and the title is Wei County, and he has served as the secretary of the Ministry of Shangshu and the governor of Guangzhou, and when he came to Sanshui County, he was the secretary of Henan Yin and the Ministry of Household and the prince Zhan Shi.
If he encounters a problem in learning that cannot be solved, it will be a big problem, and even Li Longji in the court has to ask about it, as long as he encounters a problem that cannot be answered, countless people in the court will follow suit, and write down this problem so that he can teach others in the future.
Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan are good to Old Man Bi in addition to admiring Old Man Bi's character in their hearts, they also have academic ideas, and the two of them made a conclusion to Old Man Bi: His existence is a legend, and he is a treasure trove when he is alive, and he is at the same level as the giant panda.
The people in the inner courtyard of Zhang Wang's two families have grown up in such an environment, and they have been studying for seven years, and they still have practical experience.
Not to mention just one state capital, even if the hundred officials in Luoyang are dead, pull the inner courtyard of the Zhang family over, and all departments will operate as usual.
This is real wealth, Zhang Zhong is also much easier because of this, plus there are two little immortals in the family, not to mention going to a Hongmen banquet, even if the sky falls, Zhang Zhong also believes that the two families can survive.
"Zhang Tingshi is here, Zhang Tingshi is here." Zhang Zhong walked very leisurely along the way, and there were only three people around him, a scholar, two guards armed to the teeth, only four people, there was no shelf, and it was far worse than his father-in-law.
It was still twenty zhang away from the place of the restaurant, and the merchants in the restaurant poured out, rushing to say hello, all with real smiles on their faces.
Zhang Zhong knew that such an opponent was the most terrifying, more than a hundred times more powerful than the people he met in Luzhou at that time.
The history of the thorn has to have the appearance of the history of the thorn, even if it is not far away and does not take the car, it has to show the temperament of the third-grade official, bowed slightly, and walked towards the restaurant, and the people around him followed one step behind.
The name of the restaurant is Omi, in fact, it is far away from the river, three floors, not too short, for the general uneducated officials, will be shocked by the paint painted outside the restaurant, the most important thing is that the third floor of the restaurant has a separate platform, more than two feet high, there are stairs above, can put a table for people to drink.
Zhang Zhong also came for the first time, mainly because the people renovated it a few days ago, so he installed a high platform and came out, and he didn't need to ask to know that the price of the wine and food inside would not be cheap.
The owner of the restaurant is also accompanied by the farthest place next to it, hoping that the new assassin can know his strength.
It's a pity that they met Zhang Zhong, what did the Zhang family do? It's just a three-story restaurant with a lot of paint, and can an extra two-foot high platform be able to reach the sky?
I didn't know it, I went to the water and clouds to take a look, it was like a dream, I went to the sea and the clouds to see, the tide was accompanied by the moon, and it fell down only from the momentum, and it couldn't move Zhang Zhong's heart that was already able to tolerate the little fairy.
The three-story restaurant in front of Zhang Chong is not as good as the entertainment building of the four little guys, only half a month, Xiaobao and Juan Juan have made a matching terrain, there are mountains and rivers, pavilions and reflections, gurgling streams, parrot songs and swallow dances, green grass Feifei, waterfall rainbow, mushroom tree house, wind chimes gently shake, cloister song.
This is because the son and daughter-in-law are afraid that the mist will not be good for the health of the little ones, otherwise, they can still see the rain and fog.
The four little babies don't understand, but the adults understand that as long as the place is enlarged and the house is built, it is another fairyland on earth, no matter which one sees it, it will be attracted, but outsiders can't see it at all, according to the words of the son and daughter-in-law, this is the style of the family.
There is a comparison between his own restaurant and the casino of the little babies, and the three-story Omi Building has become a vulgar ornament in Zhang Zhong's eyes, without any praise, he walked in.
The owner of the restaurant is the saddest, but he has to be careful to serve, a group of people went directly to the best platform, the restaurant also made a recipe to send people to order, other restaurants rarely have such a situation, usually by the guys, after all, some people are illiterate.
The recipe was pushed in front of Zhang Zhong, and a businessman said with a smile: "My lord, you can order food, as long as you want to eat, you can order it here." ”
"Really? That's okay, the official will choose two light dishes, a cucumber peel, an old vinegar sting, an old stinger for more than a year, and you can look at the rest. ”
Zhang Zhong really didn't embarrass people, these two dishes can be eaten at home, especially cucumber peel, he likes the kind with more sesame sauce, which is refreshing.
He didn't order high-priced dishes such as bear paw and deer lips, and he usually tasted them occasionally at home, but his son and daughter-in-law didn't let him eat more, saying that the fat and cholesterol were too high.
He ordered it easily, the guy was embarrassed, there were no two dishes here, I didn't know what Lapi was, there were sea stingers, but there were no Chen Haistings more than a year ago, I thought it wasn't to dry the sea stingers and finish it, there must be something to say.
As soon as they saw the expression on the faces of the fellows, the merchants knew what was going on, and one of them, who specialized in making ploughs, immediately made a round of the game.
"Lord Thorn Shi, it's better to order two meat dishes, it's not good to be too vegetarian."
Zhang Zhong also understands that people don't have these two dishes, and they will be embarrassed when they say it casually, and the meat dishes are meat dishes, which are still often eaten at home.
"Let's have a stir-fried meat stewed with fungus and lion's mane mushrooms, and then serve a slice of smooth mutton."
Both dishes, usually home-cooked, have fungus in them, and it is right to listen to your son and daughter-in-law, eat more fungus and mushrooms.
The guy is stupid again, there is meat, there is lamb tenderloin, but I have never heard of such a dish name, so where to get the fungus and lion's mane mushroom? I've never heard of lion's mane mushrooms, and the fungus knows, but I haven't received the fungus yet.
It's not like there's always there.,Thorn history is thorn history.,The things you eat are different from others.,Pick what others don't have.,What gold is expensive.。
The guy thought so, how did he know that Zhang Tingshi was usually used to eating more at home, and if he wanted to eat something special, he had to find the ingredients first, such as braised tiger steak, how could he set aside a month to find it, isn't it embarrassing to order this kind of dish? Just eat the dishes that can be seen every day on the dinner table at home, eat them really, and don't make any publicity, well, don't make a statement.
"Lord Zhang, it's too late for your subordinates, forgive your sins." Just when the guy was in a dilemma, another person came in outside, the record of Shuzhou joined the army, was in charge of the soldiers, and was also responsible for monitoring each other with the assassin history.
Zhang Zhong didn't expect to be able to come to join the army, this is not right, why is it late? The official who assassinated himself is the biggest, and no one in Shuzhou is qualified to let him wait except for Li Xun, the king of the county, not to mention that Li Xun will not be like this, and he has always been a junior when facing himself.
Therefore, Zhang Zhong only nodded lightly and did not speak, which was regarded as knowing this matter.
The record officer also knew that Zhang Zhong was not satisfied, so he drove Zhang Zhong's left hand to sit somewhere else with a smile, and said to Zhang Zhong: "My lord, my subordinates just heard about this, and I was busy with the deployment of troops just now, I am afraid that there will be too much rain this year, and this place will be waterlogged. ”
The people apologized, Zhang Zhong didn't continue to face each other coldly, and said: "It's okay, everything is focused on the people, can the dishes be made?" ”
The latter words are naturally to ask the buddy.
The signature smile on the man's face has changed, can you do it? Don't know what is and how to do it?
When he saw the man's face, before he could ask, someone next to him whispered the four dishes just now, and he immediately understood and said:
"Just bring the signature dish up, and even let Master Zhang say the name of the dish, eat the bear's heart and swallow the leopard's gall? In Mr. Zhang's house, there are countless restaurants in Shuiyunjian, which is the place where you can answer correctly casually in Jinjiang Building? The four dishes are just the usual dishes that Master Zhang usually has at home, why don't you go soon? ”
Zhang Zhong was a little surprised, he didn't expect that he knew himself so well when he joined the army, and it was true, so he nodded to his buddy.
The guy breathed a sigh of relief, and jumped out as fast as possible to make a signature dish, but the shock in his heart did not disappear at all, the new Lord Thorn Shi turned out to be a person from the boiling water clouds, and the recipe was still a scholar between the water and clouds, this is considered to be an expert, no, I have to talk to the masters, show my skills, don't expect adults to praise, as long as you don't find faults.
