Li Zhensheng talked to Hou Ye about what he saw and heard on the way from Xindu to Quanzhou.

The land south of the Yangtze River is much richer than that of the north, and except for the northerner of the new capital, it is still ripe once a year, and the rest of the places are twice a year.

However, the entire people of Tianwu are gathered in Jiangnan, and the burden is still extremely heavy.

Taxes were increased in various places, and the people had a hard time, and there were more thefts and robberies.

The Li family's fleet was not large, well-manned, and cautious enough, but they still encountered three water bandits on the way.

There was even a time when the water bandits almost injured Jiaxi and Jia'an, but fortunately, Jiayi was good and willing to rescue him desperately, so there was no danger.

Of course, I didn't dare to tell my family about this, and I couldn't let the old lady hear a word.

Li Zhensheng was afraid that the barbarians in Jiangbei would not get rid of the external troubles, and they would add internal worries, so he said a few more words to the Hou Ye to briefly remind him.

Hou Ye's face was heavy, and he originally went to the palace to find the emperor to talk about military training, and he had to add a few words.

Prevention is better than prevention, and moths such as water bandits and bandits should also be planned early......

Jiayin doesn't understand these big things, and he doesn't have the energy to pay attention to them for the time being.

Because, she's so busy.

said that if I went to Xindu today, I had to hurry up and see the dim sum shop.

The glass in the space, she had already taken out.

The glass cabinet of the dim sum shop is in full swing, and the second uncle on the other side of Baiyuan is also staring at the construction of the conservatory.

It is estimated that after finishing these, there will still be some glass left, and she plans to build a small greenhouse in the back garden of the Ye family to cover the space.

She prepared the fruit seedlings brought back by her brothers this time, and planted them in front of everyone, and when the time came, when she ate the new fruits, she would have a provenance.

As for whether these fruits really grow in the greenhouse, no one will think to investigate further.

As long as you think about sitting on the hot kang in winter, putting all kinds of fruits on the table, and talking with your family while eating, Jiayin feels very happy.

Of course, the fruits here in Tianwu are still very different from the previous life, and they don't look good and taste bad.

But with the space nursery in hand, this is not a problem, it's a big deal to stay up for a few nights, guard the nursery, and evolve a few more times!

Li Zhensheng and Hou Ye talked for a long time, and his mood was still a little heavy, but when he looked down, he saw that the fat girl was actually asleep.

I don't know what I dreamed of, but I still had a smile on my face, and my mouth clicked twice from time to time......

Both of them couldn't help but laugh.

Hou Ye took off his coat and covered the fat girl's belly, and Li Zhensheng contributed a leg as a pillow.

The world is difficult, but there is always hope ahead.

For example, this carefree and joyful fat girl is where they are willing to fight and protect......

In Xinduli, the original decent dim sum shop has changed greatly after the renovation of this period of time.

Jiayin walked inside and out, and felt very satisfied, so he called Peng Chuan to inquire, "Shopkeeper Peng, get up early tomorrow to preheat the oven, my mother and I will come over, and plan to try to bake a new snack." ”

"Yes, the owner, the minion must arrange it himself." Peng Chuan accompanied Li Zhensheng to talk for a long time, and at this time, he listened to his master's orders and hurriedly responded.

Jiayin still wanted to speak, but saw that the pile of shavings in the corner of the house was a little strange, walked over to take a look, and asked in surprise: "Shopkeeper Peng, is there anyone in our shop who can carve or paint?" ”

Peng Chuan took a closer look, it turned out to be the pile of shavings left over from the cupboard, and I don't know who put some flower patterns, which are vivid and look very beautiful.

He hurriedly replied: "County Lord, this should be a little guy in the back kitchen." Previously, the servant handed over the errand of picking up shavings to him and asked him to clean it up quickly, but the master Xu called him back to the backyard to do something, so he forgot about it. ”

Jiayin's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he asked, "This young guy is in the back kitchen?" Does he also make dim sum? ”

"It's just a matter of doing a chore." Peng Chuan responded cautiously and said with a smile: "The rules of our shop are apprenticeships for five years, and this kid has only been doing it for three years, but he is very diligent on weekdays." ”

After that, he personally went to the back to call someone, and soon brought a fifteen or sixteen-year-old offspring over.

This posterior is very thin, his clothes are half-old, but the washing is a little gray, his hair is meticulously combed, and his hands and face are clean.

What is rare is that his eyes are very bright, and there are two dimples on his cheeks with a smile, which is very joyful.

Xu didn't know why he was called out, and the latter was a little apprehensive, but he didn't ask indiscriminately, but after saluting, he stood aside respectfully.

This not only made Jiayin have a good impression, Li Zhensheng also nodded, and asked first: "Little brother, what is your name, where do you live, and what is your background?" ”

The young man hurriedly replied: "Back to the old man, the villain's name is Chen Xi, a native of Xindu." The family was born as a farmer, and his parents died when he was thirteen years old. The villain was fortunate enough to be apprenticed to the shop for three years, and now he is sixteen years old. ”

Li Zhensheng nodded, and asked again: "Listen to you, but are you literate?" ”

Chen Xi's eyes flashed with sadness, and he said: "When I was a child, I followed the old boy in the village for three years, and after my parents passed away, I ...... to live a difficult life."

Jiayin didn't want to mention his sadness, and interrupted: "Can you draw?" If you put a pattern on the dim sum like those shavings, you might be up to the task? ”

Chen Xi was stunned for a moment, and nodded again and again, "Yes, the owner!" I've loved to think about these things since I was a kid, and I can draw on sand, bark, and mud, but I haven't learned ......."

"That's enough," Jiayin was satisfied, and ordered, "Tomorrow, I will come over to think of a new snack, and I need to paint or make a pattern on the snack, and then you will follow me and give me a hand." As long as you learn, or do better, you will be responsible for the new dim sum in the future. ”

Chen Xian couldn't believe that he suddenly had such a good opportunity, and he was stunned for a long time before kowtowing to thank him under the reminder of the shopkeeper.

The shop was renovated and rebuilt to sell new dim sum.

If he really behaves well and gains the trust of the county lord, then won't he be a master in the future?!

What a step to the top!

After a few more gossips, it was not early, and Jiayin followed the uncle to go home in the car.

Peng Chuan sent off his master, turned around and entered the dim sum shop, and saw that the rest of the guys and cooks were all around Chen Xi to congratulate him.

He was also happy, but he still persuaded him: "Xizi, the owner likes it, it's your luck that has come, but don't be proud, you must do your best." ”

"Don't worry, I will work hard and not let the owner down!" Chen Xi's face turned red with excitement, and he promised again and again.

Peng Chuan looked at the two masters standing behind the people, his face was not too good, and after thinking about it, he knocked a few more words, "Although the owner wants to add some new dim sum to our shop, the original traditional dim sum will not be thrown away, so don't think about it, just listen to the owner's orders!"

"I see that the owner is very kind, as long as we work hard, we will definitely not be lost!"
