met Gu Bangcai and them again, and Li Anran gained a lot.
The wasteland that was to be used for the construction of the academy has been approved, and the price is about the same as that of cabbage. If it weren't for the fear of provoking criticism, looking at Gu Bangcai's appearance, it is estimated that most of them would not accept this money.
In addition to the large piece of wasteland where the academy is located, the request to open a road connecting the academy with the official road at the west gate of Lantian County was also approved. However, Gu Bangcai did not agree to sell the land on both sides of the road directly, and after getting the most outrageous, Li Anran had to borrow the concept of real estate property rights in modern time and space, and rented all the wasteland on both sides of the road at a price that was not too outrageous, and the lease period was also seventy years after some arguments.
If you want to say that the lease period is not long, it is considered long, but Li Anran's statement is that if it is too short, it is not cost-effective. To put it another way, a 70-year lease is not a long term compared to freehold land and houses. According to historical records, it took nearly 300 years for the Tang Dynasty to end. While it's not clear what someone is buying the land for, it's not necessarily a bad thing at the moment. Moreover, even if there is any problem, it can be completely controlled with Datang's national strength.
In addition to the smooth passage of the land and the road, the three requirements put forward by Li Anran before were also met. According to Zheng Chenggong and Wu Chengen, the wood and medicinal materials of Shanghao Lu have been prepared and can be traded at any time. And the search for Tian Huangshi and Bloodstone has also been arranged to be completed. It's just that because it's too far away, it will take some time to get the results.
As for the issue of population and skilled personnel, arrangements have also been made. It's just that because the time is still too short, and I don't know how Li Anran will choose, the servants who have been recruited and the people who are ready to accept employment are still waiting to be selected in Lantian County. Fortunately, although it was not for a long time, the backers behind the county government, the Zheng family and Wu Chengen, with the help of the three parties, also gathered a large number of people.
Regarding the price of these servants and hired manpower, Li Anran is not worried at all. Not to mention that there is still a lot of money left over from the few "treasures" sold before, and the later batch of man-made gems were also sold at a very good price. This time, there were more man-made gems than the last one.
Even if the price of high-quality wood and excellent medicinal materials is expensive, in a short period of time, there is still no need to worry about such things as "money".
After talking about business, it was noon. Li Anran, who is the host, naturally did not have the reason to let the guests run in vain, so he immediately instructed Zhao Er's mother-in-law to get a table of dishes, and asked Steward Wang to bring out a barrel of self-brewed wine when he came back from these crossings, as for the container for the wine, it was not the kind of crystal glass wine set sold to Wu Chengen last time, but an authentic red wine wine set.
Don't look at modern time and space, Li Anran usually only knows a little about drinking red wine, but in the Tang Dynasty time and space, it is enough to show off.
Since the red wine is poured directly into the corresponding crystal glass wine bottle, there is no such thing as opening the wine. But after the introduction of the series of techniques of sobering up, smelling wine, tasting wine, and aftertaste, Gu Bangcai, who was sitting on both sides of the main seat, suddenly discovered that while drinking wine was so exquisite, they couldn't help but be surprised that drinking wine in the upper realm would also be so exquisite.
And what made Li Anran himself feel a little surprised was that this home-brewed wine had been drunk for a long time, and the taste was too long ago to ripen. But this time, when I drank it in my mouth, I was surprised to find that the vat of grape wine not only smelled more fragrant, but also became more and more wonderful in terms of taste. Especially when the wine flows in the mouth, it has a silky smooth feeling.
"Could it be that time travel has an effect not only on living creatures, but also on wine? By the way, wine is made by fermentation, and if you really want to talk about it, that kind of enzyme fermentation can be regarded as a tiny life, right? ”
Li Anran, who was surprised by the change in his red wine, quickly thought of one of the possibilities, as for whether this was the case, and what the specific change process and principle were, he just thought about it and threw it to the back of his mind. It can't be helped, who makes these things not just think about it and come up with a reason.
In addition to this fine wine, the banquet made by Zhao Erniang also made Gu Bangcai and them full of praise. Even if he can't get into the eyes of Wu Chengen, who runs Hongfu Building, in terms of knife skills and ingredients, it is enough to surprise this Wu shopkeeper in terms of seasoning. In addition, it is obviously different from the cooking techniques of steaming, frying, roasting, and boiling, that is, to ensure the freshness and tenderness of the ingredients, and to remove the shortcomings of the ingredients themselves, the taste is even more full.
"Real person, which chef made these dishes?" Wu Chengen, who held back for a while, couldn't hold it after all, took advantage of everyone's free time to chat, and suddenly asked.
"These dishes are all made by Zhao Er's mother-in-law." Li Anran, who didn't have to guess what the other party thought, said with a smile.
"How is this possible?!" Wu Chengen, who originally thought that it was arranged by the other party personally, thought that these dishes that made him feel very delicious were actually made by just a peasant woman in the countryside, and his eyes suddenly widened.
"Oh? It seems that the shopkeeper Wu is worthy of being the shopkeeper of Hongfu Building, and he can eat the difference in this dish as soon as he eats it. That's right, this method of cooking food is different from ordinary frying, frying, boiling, steaming, and roasting, this method of cooking food is called stir-frying in the upper realm! These are all stir-fried dishes. Looking at the other party's face and listening to the expression, Li Anran said with a secret smile.
"Stir-fry?" Gu Bangcai, who had just sent a chopstick dish to his mouth, couldn't help but be a little stunned.
"Real person, what is stir-frying?" Zheng Chenggong on the side also asked with interest.
To put it simply, it is the cooking process of using a special iron pot, using high heat, oil, spices, and then using a special tool "spatula" to turn the dishes to cook. Although he is also a foodie, Li Anran, who is not a specialist after all, can only be explained in the simplest terms.
It's a pity that for Gu Bangcai and Zheng Chenggong, the two Tang Tu clans, in addition to special iron pots and special tools, they still can't figure out what it is like to stir-fry the vegetables with high fire, big oil, and spices. Only the shopkeeper of Wu Da, because he is running Hongfu Building, he heard some Taoism from it, but he still didn't know the specific things.
I want to ask clearly, but when I think of the special and special statement, I also know that this is a secret that people do not pass on. Don't ask clearly, as a leading enterprise in the food industry in Lantian County, how can Wu Chengen let go of such a novel cooking method.
Just when this little eye was spinning there, Li Anran, who had already seen the other party's thoughts, did not plan to share the good skills and good things he had mastered casually like those predecessors who had crossed over. Therefore, as if he didn't see the other party's abnormality, he quickly turned the topic to the establishment of the academy.
In Li Anran's opinion, there is still a lot to be desired, but for Gu Bangcai and the three of them, it is already after the end of the lunch that is full of color and flavor. Considering that there were still a lot of things to do, the four of them did not delay any longer, but took the carriage and rushed towards Lantian County together. As for the alcohol on the body, it can just be dissipated by the not short distance between Xiaoyao Mountain Villa and Lantian County, and you can even take the opportunity to take a nap.
Considering that Zhao Er didn't sleep all night, even if he took it with him, his combat effectiveness was greatly reduced. If one is not good, it will also become a drag on yourself to take care of each other. And he has a 64-style police pistol and a Remington shotgun, as well as a skill that has become strong because of time and space, so Li Anran did not let people call this close guard, but set off in the carriage of the villa alone with the artificial gems that were ready to be used as payment for the goods.
Anyway, with Gu Bangcai's identity as the three of them, if something really happens, it will definitely not be him. It's just that this incident also made Li Anran feel even more that it was far from enough to have only one person in the close guard.
