Paid Chapter (12 points)
In the winter months, the weather turns cold, and the cold water cannot be sold. Zhiwei Zhai took this opportunity to launch the "Sugar Water" series, which was really popular. This sugar water is sweet and delicious, and the key is that it is still hot. Drinking a sip of hot sugar water on a colder winter moon is definitely a treat. Within a few days, it became the new fashion of Dingtao.
If it is said that on the opening day, many people who come to Zhiwei Zhai to buy dim sum are to see the freshness of the buy one get half free promotion. Since then, Zhiwei Zhai has won the market with its reputation and the freshness that has always been ahead of other dim sum shops.
The praise of the county magistrate only played a leading role, and the most important thing is that everyone who has eaten Zhiwei Zhai dim sum will say two words - delicious! In particular, every two or three days, Zhiwei Zhai will launch new tricks, or dim sum that has never been eaten, or delicious and delicious sugar water. From time to time, there are also some small toys that are not worth a few dollars, but let a dry child look at them without blinking, which satisfies people's curiosity all the time.
Now, the greeting in Dingtao County, especially the greeting between children, has been changed, isn't it "Have you eaten?" What to play? Rather, "Have you eaten pie and don't skip words." "Have you drunk sugar water" "Have you led the toys of Zhiwei Zhai"?
If you haven't even eaten apple pie, never drunk sugar water, and don't even have a baby in your hand with a bamboo dragonfly sent by Zhiwei Zhai, you will definitely feel shameless in the group of friends.
In the winter months, the most popular thing about Zhiwei Zhai is a few kinds of sugar water - sesame paste, oil tea noodles and glutinous rice balls. To say that these three kinds of food, for the Dingtao people, it is really fresh.
Sesame paste and camellia noodles are actually very similar. Powdered, with icing, boiled in hot water and served. This can not only be eaten in the dine-in, but also can be bought and brewed at home, which is convenient and trouble-free.
It's just that this sesame paste is made of black sesame grinding, which is full of sesame fragrance. The oil tea noodles are fried with white flour to make brown yellow, and when eating, you can add high-quality peanuts, melon seeds, white sesame seeds, hazelnut seeds, etc. according to personal preferences, and it tastes another extreme fragrance.
As for the rice balls, don't say that there is no such thing now, it is in later generations, and northerners generally call this "Lantern Festival". What boiled Lantern Festival, steamed Lantern Festival, fried Lantern Festival, but most of them are eaten on the Lantern Festival on the 15th day of the first month. Moreover, it is slightly larger than the southern rice balls. When the transportation is not convenient and the information is not developed, even many northerners don't know that the Lantern Festival is still called tangyuan in the south!
After Lin Zhenniang made this rice ball at the beginning, the master invited by Liu Yuan praised Lin Zhenniang for her thoughtfulness, and even gave this rice ball an elegant name and called it "Fu Yuanzi". Lin Zhenniang didn't know that in later generations, this rice ball was originally called this name. I only laughed at the name that was too elegant, and there was no glutinous rice ball. However, with the master's word of mouth, the names of Fu Yuanzi and Tangyuan have been passed on.
After the introduction of tangyuan, new flavors are introduced every five or six days. What sesame filling, five-kernel filling, tangerine peel brown sugar filling, red bean paste filling, fruit filling......
The variety is complete, all kinds of new products, the people who like sweets in Dingtao County are hooked up with worms, and they don't go to Zhiwei Zhai for a day, and they feel that their mouths are tasteless.
In this way, a newly opened dim sum shop, in less than half a month, seems to have become one of the best dim sum shops in Dingtao City, that is, people from other counties who come to the city to do business want to bring dim sum back, but also to choose Zhiwei Zhai to have face.
In the winter moon, Lin Zhenniang was very busy. Busy making new snacks, busy making stalls, busy accumulating capital for her dreams......
However, busy is busy, and she hasn't left any gossip that she should know.
When Zhiwei Zhai opened, she guessed that Lin Ruchen, the chief steward of the martial arts, was afraid that it was not just as simple as visiting relatives. Sure enough, within a few days, there were rumors that Lin Ruchen was loudly denouncing Wu San in front of the public.
I heard that Wu San was scolded very badly, from listening to the training all the time to listening to the training and hearing the scolding, the process is really like a "Great Seal of the Six Kingdoms".
When Lin Ruchen taught people, he was honest and reasonable, but he was not good at scolding. Wu Sanyi scolded, and Sven, who was a gold medal manager, could only turn blue with anger.
The matter was big, and the four officials of the martial family came forward in person, but they did not favor Wu San as before, but pressed Wu San to apologize to Lin Ruchen.
Although Lin Ruchen usually speaks softly and laughs, he has a Confucian business demeanor, but this time he has a very tough attitude. I don't know what he said to the four officials, and the four officials were furious.
He was so angry, the third master Wu who thought he was his uncle and relied on the support of the four officials, but he was unlucky!
"Well deserved! Just that bastard thing, with him, he is also worthy of the surname Wu! These words were said by Wu Xiaoliu, who has always been honest and silent.
At this point, Lin Zhenniang knew that the third master of Wu was not surnamed Wu at all, nor was he the third in the family. He is called Wu Sanye, because he is the third steward of the martial family, and he begged the four officials to give him the surname Wu with a shy face, so there is this famous Wu Sanye.
Now the four officials not only pushed his position as a manager to the end, but also went to his Wu surname, Zhang Dadong, who had no Wu surname, slipped out of the back door of the Wu family's mansion in a gloomy manner, like a lost dog. I heard that for a few days after this, Zhang Dadong stayed at the door of the martial arts house and asked to see the four officials, but the four officials did not see him and did not say anything, and scolded the porter who reported it.
There was even news from the back house, I heard that the little star who was bent on helping her uncle say good things also annoyed the four officials, and she didn't enter her yard for a few days. Although I don't know if this is true or false, there is no doubt that the former Third Master Wu and now Zhang Dadong have lost power.
Hearing such news, all the young and old in the tile house are happy, and Wu Xiaoliu is the happiest. Li Si also laughed and said that Wu Xiaoliu had long felt that Zhang Dadong had ruined their Wu name, and Xiaoliu had long been eager to pick up his fake skin.
When Lin Zhenniang heard this, she remembered that Zhang Dadong once said that Wu Xiaoliu was also a clan member of the Wu family. So it seems, it's true.
Wu Xiaoliu was very indifferent, "Although the five suits have not yet been released, the bloodline has long faded." Not to mention anything else, the wealth of their martial arts family is not passed down from their ancestors, how can we, those of other branches, go to our relatives? If it is rich, it is just that, if you are poor and sour, but you will admit your relatives, it will only make people look down on you. ”
This kind of thing is what Lin Zhenniang has heard Wu Xiaoliu say the longest, but after hearing it, Lin Zhenniang looked at the taciturn Wu Xiaoliu differently. Don't look at him who doesn't like to talk, but what's the matter in his heart!
Once Dingtao, he disposed of Wu San, who made the martial artists complain in Dingtao, and Lin Ruchen's actions can be described as very happy. However, this is obviously not the main purpose of Lin Ruchen's return to Dingtao. I don't know what means I used, and how I talked to the chief steward of the Xiao family, but I actually won the piece of land that I had no hope of taking.
The good church on the original land was relocated to a large mansion four or five blocks away. Not only is the yard newly built, but it is more than double the original size. I heard that it was an industry of the samurai family, and if it was valuable, it was really on the land of Shantang.
In fact, if the Wu family had done this early on, the head of Shantang might not have refused to move, but it was just that Wu San was blindly arrogant before, which forced the master to resell the land of Shantang to the Xiao family. It's just that what worked well at the beginning is not so effective now. If it is replaced by another person to persuade the Xiao family, it may not work out.
Liu Yuan has always been clever, and he likes to inquire about Dingtao's big and small affairs. Lin Zhenniang heard from him that Xiao Mo, the steward of the Xiao family, admired Lin Ruchen very much. only said that Lin Ruchen, who he accompanied the old steward to see that day, originally looked down on the martial arts businessman Jia to make a fortune, but now that he is facing Lin Ruchen, he knows that it is indeed not easy for the martial family to have today.
"I heard that the martial arts family and the Xiao family may partner in business!" Liu Yuan approached mysteriously, "If the Xiao family can also follow the sea, don't say it a few times, just one trip, this money is also a sea ......"
Liu Yuan shook his head and sighed, putting his admiration for Lin Ruchen on his face, "This person! If you want to do big things, you still have to be willing to do it! If he hadn't thrown out such a big piece of fat, how could he persuade the big officials of the Xiao family? ”
According to Liu Yuan's words, thinking that Lin Ruchen was rich and rich, so that the squire, the head of the Xiao family in the official family, had to be moved. If that's the case, then there is really no one in this world who is as strong as iron and can't move his heart, it just depends on whether the temptation you give is enough.
It's just that the Wu and Xiao families are temporarily reconciled, and I'm afraid that such a result is not happy to be seen by An Ronghe, right? Earlier, Wu San said that it was An Rong and provoked it, but now that Wu San has stepped down, Lin Ruchen may be more able to deal with it.
It's just that a few days later, Dingtao didn't hear that the martial arts family had any action against An Ronghe, but an official document came from Jinan Mansion. I heard that An Ronghe has become the master of Dingtao, and from the official of the eighth grade, he can already be regarded as the fourth-in-command in Dingtao.
From an official to an official, he has only been gone for four years, and compared to many people, he is already very lucky. It's just that although they haven't met, and they haven't heard anyone mention what the situation was like when An Ronghe received the appointment, Lin Zhenniang knew in her heart that this master book from the eighth grade was just a starting point for An Ronghe.
In the middle of winter, the first snow fell in Dingtao. Large snowflakes flew all over the sky, falling like flower petals, covering the distant mountains and the nearby roofs with a layer of silver white. The green pines, the trees that have lost their leaves, and the withered yellow grass in the wilderness are also white. But when the snow was finished, the next day when the sky cleared and the sun rose, the white layer turned into moist water.
Lin Zhenniang feels that the current winter is warmer than that of future generations. She didn't understand the Xiaoice River and the temperature changes, but she sensitively felt that the winter here was not as cold as she imagined.
However, although Lin Zhenniang didn't feel cold, every household in Dingtao began to prepare charcoal for heating. Not only is the business of the time-honored store selling charcoal booming recently, but the coal yard of Boss Song in the suburbs is now selling thousands or thousands of catties of charcoal every day. And their honeycomb coal, just this winter, quietly went on the market...... (To be continued.)
