Ninety-seven Pinglan Province
Zhao Shuang's design was quickly affirmed and contested by everyone.
These wealthy families are vying to build a watermill in the upper reaches of the Lanfeng River, and this investment will not only benefit the country and the people, but also recover the cost and make a lot of money, and everyone is of course willing to do it.
In the end, Zhao Moshen decided to build 20 waterwheels in the upper reaches of the Lanfeng River, and the construction of waterwheels was divided into several wealthy families in different counties.
Let everyone have money to make and a reputation to receive.
It is not enough to repair the waterwheel, but also need to repair the canal, this problem will be handed over to the village, the village wants to use the water of the water wheel, it needs to contribute to the canal, the main canal is planned by the whole county, and the villages work together.
The northern part of Lanfeng County suddenly fell into the hot construction of water conservancy activities.
On this day, Zhao Shuang had just returned to the county office from the construction site and saw a luxury carriage parked at the door.
Zhao Shuang entered the house and was stopped by Yuan Xi first, "Girl, someone from Pinglan Mansion is here." ”
"Pinglan Mansion is looking for me" If you are looking for Lord Zhao, the carriage will not stop at the back door of the county office.
Yuan Xi nodded and said, "I'm looking for girls, but they deceive people too much."
No matter what era it is, people with money and power always feel that they have more social resources in their hands, and they will be superior to others, but in fact, they may never have thought that if they are higher than "people", they are naturally not people.
Zhao Shuang patted Yuan Xi's shoulder and smiled, "How did they bully you?"
Yuan Xi was so anxious that he stomped his feet, "Naturally, they didn't bully the slave maid, they were bullying the girl."
"I haven't come back, how they bullied me to go, go in and see how they bully me" Zhao Shuang pulled Yuan Xi inside.
In the hall of the main courtyard of the backyard of the county government, a woman in her thirties and richly dressed sat on the main seat, drinking tea slowly, and two women stood next to her, also dressed in silk.
Fu Ning and Rou Niang stood on the left, glaring angrily at the three women.
Zhao Shuang walked into the house and said with a smile, "I don't know who is the honorable driver, but he actually sat in my father's position, and the etiquette of Tianhongguo can't control the honorable driver."
When the woman who was sitting heard this, she immediately got up and did not dare to sit any more.
No matter how young Zhao Moshen's official is, she is also an official of the imperial court, no matter how high her status is, she is also a slave, and if she is a slave offender, even if the status of the master behind her is high, she will punish the slave first.
The woman smiled and said, "The little woman is the mother-in-law of the prefect of Pinglan Mansion. I heard that Miss Zhao was good at cooking, and the prefect wanted to try Miss Zhao's craftsmanship, so she specially ordered the little woman to pick up Miss Zhao to the chef of Pinglan Mansion to cook for the prefect. ”
No wonder Fu Ning and Rou Niang are very angry, this woman is arrogant, relying on the name of the prefect, she directly wants Zhao Shuang, a young lady from an official family, to be the chef, in this era, this is simply an insult and a great insult
But Zhao Shuang doesn't mind, she really wants to be the chef, the problem is that the people who eat don't want to die.
Fu Ning's skills are getting better and better, and she urgently needs more diverse and higher-level ingredients to practice her cooking skills, and Zhao Shuang also needs food with higher delicacy value to accumulate delicious value, and now the ingredients she eats are made with Fu Ning's craftsmanship, and their delicious value is not enough to remove the witchcraft in Zhao Moshen's place at one time, so the witchcraft on Zhao Moshen's body is constantly repeated.
Therefore, the prefect of Pinglan Mansion is really a good silver, and for Zhao Shuang, it is simply a charcoal in the snow and a pillow for sleepiness.
"It turns out that this is such a beautiful difference, this requires the eldest sister to go to Lanfeng County in person, you just need to send someone to say, and I will go to Pinglan Mansion to serve the prefect immediately." Zhao Shuang smiled, seeing that the women were all the best ingredients.
The woman was satisfied, "She is worthy of being a lady of the official family, and she is really better at talking than those subordinates." When is Miss Zhao going to go to Pinglan Mansion with us?"
Zhao Shuang couldn't wait even more than them, "Of course, the sooner the better, or let's leave now."
"Okay, Miss Zhao is really a cheerful person, and the prefect's wife will definitely like Miss Zhao. When I arrive at Pinglan Mansion, I will definitely recommend Miss Zhao to my wife. The woman laughed.
Zhao Shuang said: "Then thank you sister." ”
While speaking, Zhao Shuang instructed Yuan Xi and Fu Ning to pack up their things and prepare to leave for Pinglan Mansion to be cooks.
Rou Niang grabbed Zhao Shuang in confusion and said, "Miss Shuang'er, these people are not good people, why do you want to go with them"
Zhao Shuang said: "Bad people don't necessarily have no use value. In the kitchen of the prefect of Pinglan Prefecture, there must be all the ingredients, whether it is Xiao Ningzi practicing or me eating, it is better than these ingredients we have collected ourselves."
Rou Niang rubbed her head and said, "That makes sense, Miss Shuang'er, can you take me there, I also want to learn more about how to make ingredients." "Actually, I want to eat it.
Zhao Shuang: "No problem, but can your mother cope with the breakfast stall alone?"
Rou Niang said, "I'll go back and tell my mother to let her stop business for a while and wait for me to come back." ”
Of course, Bai Cuiqing promised her daughter to follow Zhao Shuang to see the world, but if the business is closed, of course she won't, but she promised her daughter first, her daughter is gone, how busy she should be, how busy she is.
The Bai family's stall finally ushered in such a good situation, and Bai Cuiqing wanted to earn more money and save a dowry for Rou Niang.
Fu Ning naturally wanted to follow, and Zhao Shuang couldn't really cook, otherwise he would poison the prefect's family and become a fugitive.
Yuan Xi also wanted to follow, and Zhao Shuang also agreed, anyway, Lord Zhao was used to the days when no one was serving, and Bai Cuiqing gave him wine for dinner.
After thinking about it, Zhao Shuang asked the messenger to send a letter to Han Zeshi, telling her that she was going to the prefect's house in Pinglan Mansion to be a chef. It is estimated that Han Zeshi will definitely take care of Zhao Moshen's daily life, wash clothes, sew and mend, and will definitely let the girls come over often to pay attention.
After arranging these, Zhao Shuang got on the carriage to Pinglan Mansion, and completely forgot about Lin Wenyi, who lived in the inn and studied winemaking skills every day, in the desert.
The apricot blossoms are in early spring, the chickens are crowing and the dogs are barking along the way, the small bridges are flowing water, and the ancient rural scenery has a special interest.
The carriage departed at noon, stayed overnight in a small town, and arrived in Binh Lan Province in the afternoon of the next day.
Such a distance, Zhao Shuang estimated, if you drive in modern times, it will take more than an hour to take the highway.
Pinglan Mansion is much larger than Lanfeng County, for the first time to see such a big city Rou Niang and Yuan Xi, it is simply full of novelty, people in big cities are dressed fashionably and gorgeously, there are many more buildings in big cities than Lanfeng County, and there are three-story buildings
Rou Niang and Yuan Xi were discussing whether the three-story building would collapse.
Well, three floors, so tall Zhao Shuang smiled.
Liufu, the residence of the prefect of Pinglan Province, is in the northeast corner of Pinglan Province, covering an area of more than ten acres.
The carriage of Zhao Shuang and the others was naturally not qualified to enter through the gate, but stopped at a corner gate on the southwest side.
Zhao Shuang got out of the car, gave the coachman the front of the car, and sent the coachman away.
The carriage in which the woman rode in Pinglan Mansion went directly into Pinglan Mansion.
