"Violence can't solve the problem, but it really relieves hatred! For those who bully the soft and are afraid of the hard, they have to subdue him once, so that they will not dare to bully you again. ”

Tie Han nodded in agreement. Although he wanted to ask her if she needed help dealing with the villains outside the door, he felt that the timing didn't seem to be good, so he couldn't help asking.

At this time, Guan Xiaoduo was on the rise, and suddenly heard Guan Hua's fierce voice coming from the air: "Guan Xiaoduo! Are you secretly drinking? Believe it or not I broke your dog's legs?! ”

The backyard of the two houses is only separated by a low wall, and it is estimated that the smell of wine has already drifted past.

Guan Xiaoduo was so frightened that she pinched her neck, hastily swallowed what was in her mouth, and put her wine glass in front of Tie Han with her hands and feet: "No!" It's the Iron Boss who wants to drink! I'll eat some meat with you! ”

Tie Han was stunned for a moment, but then reacted: "Yes, yes!" …… She—She didn't drink. ”

Guan Xiaoduo raised his big finger at him in admiration: Good job, enough friends!

Tie Han smiled bitterly and shook his head.

Guan Hua shouted a few more words through the wall, to the effect that she looked like a girl, didn't drink indiscriminately, and so on. The sound became farther and farther away, and the content was gradually inaudible, and finally it seemed that when I entered the house, there was no movement.

Guan Xiaoduo stuck out her tongue, and then she breathed a sigh of relief.

Tie Han asked in a low voice, "Who?" ”

"My brother."

"That'...... Why don't you come over and eat together? ”

Guan Xiaoduo waved his hand: "My brother is a little white rabbit and only eats vegetarian." The limit of his acceptance of meat is jajangmyeon and meatloaf. Let's eat ours and leave him alone. ”

Guan Xiaoduo said, took the empty wine glass back, quietly poured a glass of wine, and said in a low voice: "Uncle Zhao usually likes to drink the most, but Aunt Zhao doesn't let him drink every time." It's easy to save some private money to buy a good jar of wine, and I want to hide Tibet. As a result, I never expected that it would be cheaper for me in the end. …… Alas, I think I'm still a good thing! Bitter and spicy! ”

"Drink less, then."

Tie Han moved her wine glass in front of him: "This wine is strong, you don't know the depth of the first drink, and it is easy to get drunk." ”

The blush on Guan Xiaoduo's cheeks became more and more obvious, and she said dissatisfiedly: "Although it is bitter to drink, it is hot and warm when swallowed in the stomach!" It goes well with the barbecue, so give me another drink! ”

Tie Han shook his head firmly: "Don't be greedy, it's already a lot." ”

"Okay."

Guan Xiaoduo saw that he had no choice but to give up, and picked up the chopsticks again to eat the meat, but saw that the full cup in front of him seemed to have never moved: "Don't you men all like to drink?" Why don't you drink it? ”

Tie Han shook his head: "I never drink. ”

"Don't drink? Then you are certainly not in charge of horses, all the grooms I know are heavy drinkers! Guan Xiaoduo squinted her eyes and looked at him: "Neither a scholar nor a groom, are you a cook?" I see you're doing a good job of cutting meat! ”

Tie Han smiled and sandwiched the freshly cooked meat slices from the barbed wire into her bowl: "If you like, eat more." ”

The temperature of the small oven is just right at this time, and most of the thin slices of meat on the iron net are already cooked, and the enticing aroma wafts out.

The outermost layer of this small red clay oven was a rectangular iron trough, half a foot wide and two feet long; Inside is a two-finger-thick red clay liner, and the bottom layer is supplemented by a layer of charcoal. The two layers of iron mesh above, there is no open flame, but the heat is rising, the thin slices of meat turn back and forth on the top, sizzling oil, steaming, fragrant, colorful, and flavorful, and the senses must be more flavorful than the stew in the small furnace of Bai Juyi.

It was the first time for Tie Han to see such a special thing, and he asked, "Is this oven unique to you?" It's the first time I've seen such a good oven, not only is the fire easy to master, but it doesn't smoke the fire, which is very good. ”

Guan Xiaoduo said proudly when she heard this: "You have vision!" This thing is amazing, it's the only one in the world, and it's unparalleled in the world! ”

"Oh?"

Guan Xiaoduo picked a few green peppers and shiitake mushrooms and put them on the iron net, pointed to the oven with chopsticks and said: "Don't look at the charcoal burning inside, all the places that can be touched outside this stove are cold, and it is very safe to use!" ”

Tie Han stretched out his hand and touched it, indeed.

Guan Xiaoduo explained: "You see, there are three layers of heat insulation outside, as long as the operation is correct, it will not be hot." Look at this liner again, it is a drawing drawn by myself and customized by someone to burn it! There are grooves and oil holes all around the inside, so that the excess fat on the food will flow down the grooves without staining the charcoal fire, so that even if it is roasted all the time, it will not emit smoke. ”

Tie Han took a closer look at the words, and found that the design inside was exquisite, and it looked ordinary on the surface, but it was actually very interesting.

Guan Xiaoduo sighed and said regretfully: "It's a pity that after this furnace was made, it was used twice, and this is the third and last time." ”

Tie Han was puzzled: "Why? I think it's good! ”

Guan Xiaoduo nodded: "It's very good!" Do you know how expensive the charcoal used in this stove is? Not only must it be smokeless, but it must also be free of ash and odor, easy to burn and the temperature must be high enough, otherwise the baked things will not be delicious. I tried more than 30 kinds of charcoal, and finally picked this kind of silver frost charcoal, don't look at this small basket, but it cost me more than half a year of savings! ”

Tie Han was deeply surprised, she didn't expect that she had already put a lot of effort into such subtleties.

Guan Xiaoduo looked frustrated, and sighed again: "I thought that such a useful thing would definitely be a big hit when it was made, and then it would soon be able to return to its original value!" But I didn't expect the cost to be too high, everyone thought it was good but couldn't afford it, and I haven't found a cheap alternative to reduce the cost for the time being. This time, when the charcoal is gone, it will be thrown into the cellar to eat ashes. ”

Tie Han said: "The 'everyone' you say is only the 'everyone' you can meet, but it's not really 'everyone'." ”

Guan Xiaoduo looked confused.

"There are many places in the north where people love to eat barbecue, just have wine and meat to be lively! As long as the thing is good enough, you are not afraid of not meeting a buyer! Let's just say this silver frost charcoal, I think it's also good, although it's more expensive, if it's in the capital, there are still big families in winter to buy a car, how can you care about this bit of silver? ”

Guan Xiaoduo's eyes widened, as if the door to a new world had been opened.

Tie Han said again: "In this small place of Furong Town, how many people have seen the world? The poor can't earn a few taels of silver all year round, so they are naturally reluctant to use such a good thing. Some people buy things to be successful, but there are always people who want to be particular! It's good to use it comfortably! This stove is indeed not used at home, if it is sold in the provincial capital or capital, there will definitely be a lot of fastidious people rushing to buy it. ”

"I think so too!"

Guan Xiaoduo nodded vigorously and agreed loudly: "So I don't want to give it up, I'm thinking about whether to find some cheap materials to redo it recently, maybe it can be sold better?" ”

Tie Han shook his head firmly: "No, don't change all the materials!" That's good now! It doesn't make much money to sell to people who love to be good, but it's better to do it to the extreme and sell it to rich people who are exquisite. ”

Guan Xiaoduo also felt that it made sense.

"Do you have a name for this little oven?"

"Immortal Happy Furnace!"

“……”

Guan Xiaoduo saw that he was interested, so he pointed to the warehouse: "I still have a shabu-shabu, make a pair with it, and call it the fairy happy pot!" ”

Three pieces of sweat hung on Tie Han's head: "You name things, is it all in this style?" ”

Guan Xiaoduo smiled, immediately dropped the chopsticks and got up and went into the warehouse. After a while, I saw her laboriously dragging out a large wooden box: "There are also fairies who go down to the earth, free shoes, youth and beauty cream, easy and happy ......"

Guan Xiaoduo began to gush about it.

At first, Tie Han thought it was just some little girl's stuff, nothing more than some delicious and fun, but that's it. However, after listening to it for a while, he slowly discovered that from kitchenware to cosmetics, from toys to sports equipment, there are all kinds of strange daily necessities, and the types and uses involve all aspects, which is really eye-opening.

God knows how she could have so many strange thoughts in her head?

After talking alone for a long time, Tie Han listened silently, until Guan Xiaoduo himself felt dry: "I'm ...... today Isn't it a bit too much? ”

Tie Han smiled and said, "No, I think you're amazing." ”

Guan Xiaoduo blushed: "It's the first time someone has praised me like this!" Aunt Zhao always said that my brain was used in the wrong place, and I didn't do my job all day. ”

Tie Han: "Are you doing this a hobby?" ”

Guan Xiaoduo: "It's kind of a lot!" However, of course, I also want to make some money with these things, but unfortunately it has never been successful. ”

Tie Han: "You just haven't found a suitable buyer yet, after all, Furong Town is too small. ”

Guan Xiaoduo said excitedly: "Yes, yes!" I also think I'm going to make a fortune! ”

Tie Han frowned slightly imperceptibly: "...... Is it just a love of money? ”

"Is it wrong to love money?"

Guan Xiaoduo sat down in front of him again, put a large piece of meat into his mouth, and said vaguely: "My mother said that there is no shortage of love when you have money, and there is no shortage of money if you have love - in short, it is always right to make more money first!" ”

Tie Han was silent.

In this world, when it comes to money, it feels vulgar. You can say that for hobbies, ideals, or even to change the world, no one will laugh at you or say that you are unrealistic—but if you say it is for money, it will seem very special and vulgar.

"Vulgar, huh?"

While Tie Han was still busy with his words, Guan Xiaoduo seemed to have seen through his thoughts first, and he was not annoyed, but still said with a smile: "I was originally a layman. ”

- Honest enough.

Tie Han suddenly thought of the thugs just now: "Does it have anything to do with those people outside the door?" ”

"Nope! It's all said that it's not chasing gambling debts, and there's no usury! Guan Xiaoduo was suddenly a little angry, and then sighed: "Forget it, it's actually nothing to tell you, anyway, the whole town already knows." ”

So, she told him how she met the second ancestor of the Li family, how she was forced to marry later, and how she was inexplicably shaking with the old lady, and finally being forced to worship the son.

Tie Han listened to her patiently, twisted his eyebrows and asked, "Since you love money so much, why don't you marry him?" The Li family is so rich and powerful, isn't that exactly what you want? ”

When Guan Xiaoduo heard this, she immediately pulled down her face, threw away her chopsticks, and got up angrily and left.
