I got up early in the morning and rushed to the Dragon King Temple in the west of Dingtao City. Lin Zhenniang thought that the group was already very early, but when she arrived at the place, she found that there were people who were earlier than them.

Although the Dragon King Temple is in the city, close to the West Gate, the usual incense is not vigorous. Dragon King Si Yu, except for the Three Dragon King Sacrifice in March, probably only when there is a big drought and a big flood, people will think of this immortal, right? There are not many words, so, if you want to talk about incense and prestige, the Dragon King Temple is far worse than the Qi Ji Temple.

But today, every March three dragon king festival, there are many nearby villagers after the three watches to leave, as soon as the city gate opens, they squeeze into the city, to the dragon king temple day is not yet bright.

I didn't expect so many people to rush early, and Lin Zhenniang regretted that she didn't prepare breakfast. I can only watch the stalls selling steamed buns and porridge next to me doing a prosperous business.

"Boss, do you think we should also make some porridge?" Lin Si probed, but his brain turned fast.

Lin Zhenniang tilted her head, thought about it, and shook her head.

If you can't chew too much, it's always too late to make a temporary makeshift at this time, so it's better to just make lunch.

"Stove, start stewing in a moment."

This time, she brought a four-eye stove, and after a while, the fragrance wafted on the whole shelf, and she didn't believe that it would not attract people.

Turning her head, Lin Zhenniang caught a glimpse of the old man squatting opposite and eating dry food, and her heart moved slightly. He turned around and picked up the kettle and took the bowl. "Uncle, don't just eat dry food, drink hot water!"

"Sorry ......" The ragged old man hurriedly thanked him, took the bowl, but first handed it to the little boy next to him, who was only four or five years old and still had a runny nose.

Smiled and touched the little boy who tilted his head to look at her, Lin Zhenniang smiled and asked Uncle, are you selling? ”

Lowering her head, she looked at the few noodle bags in front of the old man, and she couldn't guess that he was selling. Asking this was just an unintentional word, but when the old man untied one of the bags, Lin Zhenniang's eyes immediately stuck to the bag.

"Uncle, what you're selling is-"

grabbed a handful of red plants from the bag, Lin Zhenniang didn't need to smell or taste it, she could confirm that this was a chili pepper, and it was also a sun-dried red chili. This size and shape looks a bit like millet spicy, and in terms of spiciness, it is even more spicy than other chili peppers. looked at the old man a little nervously, Lin Zhenniang really didn't call it chili pepper at this time.

Seeing that Lin Zhenniang was interested, the old man was faintly excited, "Little lady, this is Shanjiao, born in the old mountain of Yungui in Shudi, no one here has ever seen it!" This is extremely spicy, just like the same taste as dogwood, I heard that the natives on the other side use this to cure the cold. ”

Cure the wind and cold? With chili peppers! There are a few points. But this treasure is not just medicine.

"Uncle, are you selling this pepper?"

Seeing Lin Zhenniang ask, the old man pursed the corners of his mouth, seemed to hesitate, and then stretched out a finger, "Ten wen, ten wen a catty." ”

"Shiwen?" Lin Zhenniang raised her eyebrows. The price is indescribably low. Yes, this chili pepper is a rarity. Lin Zhenniang has never seen her in Dingtao, and no one has heard of anyone when she asks anyone.

Seeing her raise her eyebrows, the old man only thought she was too expensive, "Little lady, I'm so dry - don't weigh the scales!" Seeing that Lin Zhenniang was silent, she even threw the handful of peppers she grabbed into the bag. The old man was a little anxious, "Otherwise, it's eight cents!" Little lady, my father has carried it all the way from outside, and it's not easy—if his father hadn't broken his leg, I wouldn't have sold it......"

Looking at the old man's eager expression, Lin Zhenniang couldn't help but feel a little compassionate. Although I don't know it, I don't think it will be pretended to be such a love for my son.

"Uncle, how many peppers do you have here? Well, you weigh it, I'll take all of this. Seeing the old man's surprised expression, Lin Zhenniang said again, "It's just ten cents...... "Just at the old man's heart, she is not easy to bargain.

Hearing Lin Zhenniang say that it was all inclusive, the old man was surprised and delighted, but he said no, no, no, all said Bawen, where is the reason to increase the price again! "Look at Lin Zhenniang, he asked the little lady again, do you really want it? This bag will cost thirty or forty pounds! Your adult ......"

"Uncle, don't worry, you can call the shots when you buy me. You weigh it up—don't talk about this bag, if you still have it, I'll pack it anyway." ”

"There's no more of this...... the old man snorted, and suddenly went to pull other bags, "Little lady, why don't you look at these, you see, this is ginkgo seeds, and this, it's Codonopsis, this and this ......."

After looking at the bags one by one, Lin Zhenniang was a little disappointed. Most of the herbs sold by the old man were medicinal herbs, although these medicinal herbs were also excellent spices, but it was obvious that the old man only sold these as medicinal herbs. Except for the rare chili peppers, they are sold in other pharmacies, which is quite common.

"Uncle, you don't have to open them one by one, I don't open a pharmacy, I'm just a ...... who opens a restaurant" The voice was stunned, Lin Zhenniang looked at the last bag that the old man opened, and couldn't help but reach out and grab it.

"That's good!" The old man saw Lin Zhenniang squatting down to take a closer look, and said busily Little lady, this Persian pepper can be eaten. I heard that the people on the other side of Hangzhou use this castration ......"

"Persian pepper?" This is obviously cumin.

"Well, it's Persian pepper, and it seems that some people still call this wild fennel." The old man came closer, lowered his voice and said Little lady, if you buy it, I will give you a good price, only fifteen yuan a pound - this price is not expensive! ”

Seeing the old man's anxious appearance, Lin Zhenniang tilted her head, thought about it, and stopped bargaining with him, "Uncle, you have weighed this and the pepper just now." I'll call the guy to pick it up in a moment, and I'll check it out for you. ”

As soon as he heard that Lin Zhenniang wanted everything, the old man immediately smiled, "Okay, okay, I'll weigh it out immediately...... Thanks to the little lady, you know the goods, and I also said that I brought it all the way, I'm afraid I'm going to smash it in my hands! ”

"How can you! It's possible to smash it in your hand......"

Lin Zhenniang was laughing when she heard someone next to her interject, "Okay? Let's take a look......"

Turning her head, the corners of Lin Zhenniang's eyes jumped slightly. This tall and thin man, she really knows him. The shopkeeper of Wuji Taibai Building. If you want to say that this shopkeeper Liu, but his eyes are higher than the top, even if Lin Zhenniang's small shop has been booming recently, but when he comes to him, he is still stunned, "Small fights, mixed rice and eating shops, I am embarrassed to say innovation, this food has a big ......."

Of course, even this was said by Lin Zhenniang. She is not qualified to talk to this shopkeeper Liu! I just didn't know that this shopkeeper Liu also came to the Dragon King Temple so early. It's just dawn, and Taibai Lou doesn't sell breakfast.

didn't seem to see Lin Zhenniang, Shopkeeper Liu squeezed forward, squatted down to look at the bag, "This, it's resting fennel......" grabbed a handful of cumin, Shopkeeper Liu sniffed, sent one or two more into his mouth, and spit it out after chewing.

"It's good! However, this is not new. In the early Tang Dynasty, there were people in the Western Regions who paid tribute. Even our Taibai Mansion also uses this to make spices......"

When he said this, the shopkeeper Liu squinted at Lin Zhenniang with his eyes. Although she didn't say anything else, Lin Zhenniang felt that he was clearly secretly sarcastic that she hadn't seen the world.

"This," seeing the chili pepper, Shopkeeper Liu frowned, first sniffed, and then put it in his mouth to chew, and after only one bite, he spit it out. "This is spicy and spicy, more ...... than dogwood" raised his eyebrows, he looked at the old man, and asked in a deep voice, uncle, what are you selling? I want as much as I want. ”

Hearing this, Lin Zhenniang couldn't help frowning.

is also a catering, although Shopkeeper Liu may not be very skilled in cooking, but he must be very familiar with these seasonings. That's why it's good to taste this pepper as a substitute for dogwood. Not to mention that the taste is heavier than dogwood, this pepper does not have the astringency of dogwood.

Looking at the old man who was in a daze, Lin Zhenniang thought about it, she didn't talk to him, but just said to Shopkeeper Liu with a smile, Shopkeeper Liu, I'm afraid that you are a step late, I have already decided. ”

The businessmen of the Great Song Dynasty have always valued credit. She used these words to stop Shopkeeper Liu, because she wanted him to give up, but she didn't want Shopkeeper Liu to roll her eyelids and snort, she was actually aiming at the old man and the old man, our Taibai Building is one of the best restaurants in Dingtao, and this business is not just done once. You've figured out whether you want to do it for the long term or just make one money......"

"Shopkeeper Liu, what you said is not appropriate, even if your Taibai Mansion is a big restaurant, but our small restaurant can't even afford to use spices for a long time? What restaurant doesn't use spices? ”

"I'm out double!" didn't get along with Lin Zhenniang, Shopkeeper Liu directly made a move with the old man, and it was a nirvana as soon as he came out.

Double? Lin Zhenniang quickly calculated in her heart. These two seasonings, less than two taels of silver, she has no problem buying them, even if they are doubled, she can afford them. However, if it is doubled for a long time, it will be ......

Frowning, she was angry and annoyed, and could only turn her gaze to the old man, seeing that he was a statement.

was stared at by the two, and the old man was also hesitant. It seems that he has been struggling for a long time before he is a big official, you see, do you want other medicinal materials? ”

"The others work—oh, if you buy these two spices and sell them, I'll be fine with the others." Shopkeeper Liu shook his hand, looking like he was rich.

The old man grimaced, "This can't be helped." Big official, I just promised this little lady. People don't stand without faith, not to mention that this little lady is so kind, she didn't know each other and sent water to drink with me and my grandson. I can't do anything bad ......"

Arching his hand, the old man apologized and said to the big official, I really can't help it......"

Listening to the old man's words, Lin Zhenniang was overjoyed, but the shopkeeper Liu snorted, as if to say, but there was a woman's low call from a distance, Liu Daguan......"

Shopkeeper Liu turned around and saw a gorgeous woman waving at him not far away. I immediately forgot what I wanted to say, glared at Lin Zhenniang, and left with my sleeves. (To be continued.)
