Chapter 245: And be a petty official in the prosperous world

It's a big deal. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

After lunch, Li Fengwu and Zheng He had a secret conversation in the west courtyard.

From the site selection and protection of chili pepper planting to the site selection, recruitment, and establishment of the restaurant, no matter how big or small, the two of them carefully discussed every detail, and must not have any problems.

This time, Li Fengwu's intentions were more than ten times more than those of Qiongjuan Dojo.

Compared with the original preparation for the establishment of Qingyun Publishing House, it took more energy, after all, this is a process from scratch.

Until the new moon rose, the two broke up unsatisfactorily.

In the afternoon, Li Bo had already gone to do it, and bought a small courtyard for Zheng He near Baiqiao, of course, now it is Li Fengwu who gives the money, if Zheng He understands that he will repay his kindness, and the restaurant will make money in the future, he will also find an excuse to return this money to Li Fengwu.

Li Fengwu and Zheng He talked for a day, and they almost didn't say that their mouths were swollen.

In addition, it took a lot of brainpower to negotiate various details, Zheng Yiyi left, and Li Fengwu collapsed on the bed, let Yelu Maitreya wait to wash, closed his eyes, and fell asleep.

Yelu Maitreya, who was looking forward to it, was slightly disappointed.

But not disappointed for long, Zhu Zhao'er knocked on the door with a small pillow, "Sister Yu'er, let's baa together?" ”

The two girls happily shared the same bed and talked about boudoir talk.

Early the next morning, Zheng He came.

Li Fengwu teased him while washing, "What's the matter, I haven't slept all night?" ”

Zheng He sneered, "The little official was really a little excited when he saw it. ”

The future is just around the corner, how can you sleep.

Li Fengwu laughed, didn't tease him anymore, ate some breakfast at will, asked Li Julu to call Li Bo, and the four of them went out together, today is to choose a piece of land outside Jiankang City as a base for planting chili peppers.

The rough step is to first select the land, and then Li Bo will come forward to find the owner of the field, and it is estimated that he is also a certain landlord in Jiankang City, and rent or buy the land.

Li Fengwu is inclined to buy.

The Li family is not short of money, and besides, it really can't be done, so you can ask the teacher Lu You to help.

Anyway, it's also a healthy prefect, and those landlords don't give this face?

What's more, I don't want much land, a few acres is enough.

However, I didn't find a better field, there were mostly paddy fields near Jiankang, and a few people thought about it outside the city for a long time, Li Fengwu suddenly remembered a place: Dongping Mountain!

At the beginning, Wen Shuzhen asked Dongping Mountain, I have been to it a few times, and the fields in Jingxu Palace are quite good.

Facing the sun, and there is a pond.

So he took Li Julu and others to Jingxu Palace.

The petty official of the Li family in Jiankang, the current secretary and young eunuch of Lin'an, and the old Taoist priest of Jingxu Palace still gave face, but he did not plan to sell the land, but agreed to lease it to Li Fengwu.

Of course, the duration of the contract is 10 years.

At the same time, the Taoist priests of Jingxu Palace, if they want, can also work in the chili base and pay salaries.

Li Fengwu is not very relieved of these Taoist priests.

However, I also know that the rise of Sichuan cuisine, that is, it can make money in the early stage, and when it is popularized in the later stage, some people must find ways to get chili peppers, and then the cooking skills of cooking are not particularly difficult to understand.

The master of the kitchen, as long as you eat it once or twice, you can see the method.

Therefore, what I and Zheng He's restaurant want is to make a name for itself in the early years and become the first well-deserved Sichuan cuisine in the Great Song Dynasty.

In this way, it can prosper for a long time.

Therefore, Li Fengwu and Jingxu Palace also signed a contract, at least to ensure that in the first few years, the people of Jingxu Palace must be tight-lipped about this, and no one can secretly take the chili pepper out of Dongping Mountain.

After solving the problem of renting land, the next step is naturally to recruit people.

This is relatively simple, Li Fengwu handed it all over to Zheng He, but there is a requirement, all the workers recruited must sign a confidentiality contract, and if they break the contract, they will be heavily fined.

A little bit of stuff was busy, and the morning passed again.

In the afternoon, Li Fengwu asked Li Bo to find a mason, and bought the corresponding materials to transport them to Dongping Mountain, and set up a few blue brick houses on the flat ground by the pond for the workers and night watchmen to live.

Money can make the devil grind, and now it's early summer, and the pepper planting has to be in a hurry.

Li Fengwu asked Li Bo to personally supervise the work, and spent a lot of money, and the next evening, several houses with blue bricks and black tiles were completed.

On the third day, Li Fengwu and Zheng He worked hard.

Li Fengwu personally operated and signaled how to plant peppers, anyway, it was a pit to throw three pepper seeds, because it was the first time to plant, Li Fengwu did not dare to be careless, and only used more than a pound of seeds, with an area of exactly one acre.

The next thing to do is to take care of these seeds, which are more expensive than gold.

What made Li Fengwu more relieved was that after that, Zheng He took his luggage, ate and lived with the newly recruited workers in the newly built house, and got up several times every night to carefully take care of the sprouting pepper seedlings.

Li Fengwu gave these things to Zheng He.

I was idle.

It was only after this leisure that I suddenly realized that something was wrong: it had been a few days since I returned to Jiankang, but I had not visited the Wen Mansion once.

The old fox Wen Qilai is not angry, and my fiancΓ©e is afraid that she will also be dissatisfied.

As soon as he thought of Qianmo in his heart, Li Fengwu's face couldn't help but show a warm smile, which made Zhu Zhao'er on the side pout, making Yelu Maitreya more and more worried.

When Li Fengwu was preparing gifts, Zhang Yousu happened to come over with Li Changsheng in his arms.

Li Changsheng, who is more than a year old, has two small front teeth, and he will squeak and squeak to express his meaning, but when he sees Li Fengwu, he doesn't recognize life, and the octopus generally lies on his body and does not leave.

Zhang Yousu laughed when he saw this, "Why don't I accompany you to the Wen Mansion." ”

Li Fengwu thought for a while, "It's okay." ”

The old man Wen Qilai must be a little angry, but Sanniang Zhang Yousu went to the Wen Mansion with him, and gave him enough face, so it is estimated that he will not face himself in person.

So he hugged Li Changsheng, let the slave carry the gift, and together with Sanniang, they each sat in a sedan chair and went to the bank of the Banshui River.

In his arms is his sister Li Changsheng, who is very close to him.

Outside the sedan chair was a bustling flow of people.

The traces of the Longxing Northern Expedition have lost much influence unconsciously, and the scene of the prosperous era seems to be slowly opening in the shouts of big merchants and hawkers.

Li Fengwu was in a trance.

It's actually a good day.

There is not much power in the court, and even if there are some difficulties, he has coped with the past very well, so as not to be forced to the point of exile or even rebellion.

When he is an official, he flirts with the daughter of a good family, this is the enchanting Song Shi.

and be a petty official in the prosperous world.

I just don't know if Zhao Yan allows it.

This lord of Zhongxing, after creating a prosperous era, will inevitably have an ambitious Northern Expedition, but the Great Song Dynasty will not get rid of the shortcomings, even if Song Taizu is reincarnated, the Northern Expedition will not be able to restore the country.

The disadvantages of the Great Song Dynasty cannot be eliminated by a mere prosperous era.

It's yourself, even if it comes to the day when the power is fair, you will still have a sense of powerlessness. (To be continued.) )
