Chapter 166: There is no trivial matter in people's livelihood!

"Phew, why are you reluctant to put even fine salt?!" Jiang Bai almost lifted the table when he took a sip of the herb soup.

There is no taste at all, you are opening a restaurant to do business?

The boss said angrily: "I have been fined several times in a row, and I have the money to buy fine salt?" ”

Jiang Bai frowned, fine? This liquor shop is neither opened nor operated illegally by the remnants of the Six Nations, who will be fined?

"Say!" Jiang Bai slapped his long sword on the table.

This sword is nothing special, but it was matched during Yingzheng's enthronement ceremony, and the level is still above the Wentian Sword.

Zhao Ji was idle, so he took out this sword, and Ying Zheng saw it, isn't it just a sword, and it can be given to Taifu as a scare person, so this sword became Jiang Bai's sword.

Others don't know this sword, but who doesn't know the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, this sword means that the emperor has come in person.

The boss also knew him, because he had seen Yingzheng's enthronement ceremony from afar, and he was very familiar with this sword carved with a red phoenix on a black background.

"It's the internal history, they said I didn't comply with the rules, so I have to be fined." The boss said.

How much is the fine?

"It's too much, almost more than three thousand dollars!" The boss said.

Three thousand yuan is a huge amount of money, you must know that at this time, eating a bowl of mutton soup costs two catties of mutton, and adding a pound of liquor (undistilled turbid rice wine) is less than a penny.

Jiang Bai asked Ji Bu to go to the Inner History Mansion immediately and asked Meng Yi to come over to deal with it in person.

Now the boss is also in a hurry, isn't this adding to the chaos.

"Taifu, you don't need to let Neshi come in person for this little thing, right?" The boss said.

"If you want to develop business, you traders can't do without it, any small problem can hit the enthusiasm of business, not to mention three thousand yuan, the emperor has to personally inquire." Jiang Bai didn't mind saying good things about Yingzheng.

In a few moments, Meng Yi rushed over and brought the officials who were fined.

"Why?" Jiang Bai only asked the reason.

The sword and pen officer who turned over in the army panicked and said: "Taifu, this, this, the lower official is also ......."

"The money will be returned to others, and the Inner History Mansion will write a letter of apology and post it at the gate of the city before tonight." Jiang Bai frowned and said, "You can be barbaric on the battlefield, and if you are not barbaric, you will be killed by the enemy, which everyone knows, but you are now an official of Neishi, and you represent the image of Neishi in the hearts of Xianyang residents, and even the image of the emperor and the imperial court." Arresting people at every turn, this is not legal, harsh fines, this is not something that mature city managers can do, and you can take it out by yourself if you eat it, read that you are a first-time offender, I will not punish you. ”

Meng Yi said nervously: "There are too many people in Xianyang now......"

"But you're so panicked with hundreds of thousands of people, can you do it if you're asked to run a metropolis with a population of more than a few million?" Jiang Bai instructed, "I don't interfere in government affairs, but I don't care about anything, and if you don't like it, you have to ask." You go back and ask your Inner History Mansion to pay attention to it in the past few days, I will let Fusu come over to give you a lecture, remember, fines for no reason, and it is a fine, and it is a fine, which will only make the people deviate from the court. ”

Meng Yi had too many things to do, and he didn't go to the early dynasty, so he hurriedly scraped together enough money with a knife and pen to send it to others.

The news quickly spread throughout the street.

A large number of traders came to look for Jiang Bai, but most of them did not encounter such an outrageous thing.

"Taifu, we have only one intention, we have always said that now the goods are abundant, when will the market be abundant?" A spice vendor asked.

He sells spices, which are usually spices.

Jiang Bai took out a pack of thirteen incense and handed it to him.

The man was also an expert, so he sniffed it and put it in his mouth to taste it, and immediately said, "With this thing, I can sell it for 10,000 yuan a catty!" ”

"Then you want to be beheaded by me, you are." Jiang Bai said, "Which of these people's biological resources dares to monopolize the market at a high price, and they will not be copied all over the house, but it will definitely make you unable to get up for three generations." ”

The man exclaimed, "But scarcity is expensive!" ”

"You can sell gold, silver and even precious jade at will, I don't care if the rich bastard is willing to spend money, but I will find a way to expand the supply of these things, whether it is in Xianyang or Handan, or even in Huiji, you dare to sell me hundreds, thousands or even tens of thousands of dollars, as long as someone denounces you, you will definitely be beheaded and all family property will be confiscated." Jiang Bai retrieved the thirteen incense, "Boss, take out your pot and take a look." ”

It is said to be a pot, but in fact, it is a thick iron plate, or a pig iron plate.

That's how barbecue was made in this era.

There is also a pot for boiling soup, which is called a retort at this time.

"You can't even cook without the right tools." Jiang Bai shook his head, "Prepare to change the kitchen utensils, soon there will be a batch of new iron pots in Xianyang, the price is not expensive, and every household can afford it." ”

He didn't have the heart to look at these things before, but since he was with Zhao Ji, he couldn't stop worrying about these things.

It is so difficult for the common people to eat, how can Yingzheng sit firmly in the world.

After asking about the gang who burned to death, as well as a group of clansmen, the attitude of the people was normal, and no one thought that the emperor had done wrong.

In the words of the old man of Wei, it is "If this was in the past, the King of Wei would not have taken care of it, and he would not have liked it, anyway, he didn't care whose children were taken captive, but now the emperor is eloquent and strategic, and he wants to take the people of the world as his people, so he has to be ruthless."

As for some people scolding the emperor for being cruel and unkind in the Qinglou, then ask them, according to their ideas, what to do with those who are bullied.

"We are the head of Qian, the cattle and sheep in the mouths of those people, of course people don't care about our feelings, but the emperor cares about us, and we support the emperor." The boss was in a good mood and said.

Jiang Bai's mood also improved a little.

"Is there any flour? I'll teach you something made with this iron plate, it's delicious. Jiang Bai said.

What?

Pancake!

And it's pancakes without eggs.

"You can chop a little chopped green onion and put it on top, but be sure not to skimp on the sauce. Come and watch me teach you how to make sauce, if you have meat, make more meat sauce, it's delicious and nutritious. Jiang Bai said.

He is too good at this thing, as well as the kind of pancakes in the Yimeng Mountains, as well as the stall cakes in his hometown of Longdong, and the finger cakes.

Jiang Bai made several kinds of cakes quickly, he was willing to use materials, and of course people ate them.

But flour is not readily available.

In this era, people eat wheat by cooking it, and people are not happy to grind it into flour, thinking that it is a waste.

"What you eat is not nutritious, it is better to eat half a catty of white flour than to eat one catty," Jiang Bai left the remaining little flour to the boss, "Try to sell it for a few days, if the effect is good, you can continue, if it is not good, you can sell your own liquor." ”

Speaking of this, Jiang Bai has something to say.

Can the liquor of this era be wine?

The people who had a good life drank better than this.

Then make some more wine.

For fun.
