Lu Zhou: "The Taishi doesn't know us, just by checking Longxing's information, he can find you, which means that he must be very, very much in recognition of the value of the business route, and he was impeached and transferred Brother Jun Qi to such a critical place, doesn't it mean that he trusts you?" Brother, don't you think that Taishi is the one who appreciates you the most? ”

Lu Xu's chopsticks fell into the pot in surprise.

Lu Zhou scooped up his chopsticks and handed them to Lu Xu again, wondering why his brother was so surprised, "Isn't it?" Taishi and His Majesty merged the two counties into one county for Brother Junqi to manage, don't they trust you very much? ”

Lu Xu and Yan Jun looked at each other and laughed together.

yes.

Isn't the election of officials by the imperial court just to let them govern one side well?

They subconsciously only saw the suffering of the northwest, and did not want the people they cared about to suffer, but they ignored this simplest truth.

Back then, no one supported him, he insisted on fighting all his family resources, and tried his best to open up business routes, but now Taishi He supported him and gave them enough convenience and rights, why was he unwilling?

Facing his brother's clear eyes, facing his younger brother's innocent admiration, Lu Xu really couldn't say that he was not an official, he had earned enough, he was afraid of hardship, and he couldn't say it because there was no Qiu Hu, no Tan Shishi, and no one he knew.

Lu Xu put down his chopsticks and picked up his wine glass, "Brother is not as good as you, come, brother will toast you." ”

Lu Zhou: ???

Yan Junqi also put down his chopsticks, "I'm not as good as you, I also toast you." ”

Lu Zhou hurriedly picked up the cup, but in his cup was the fruit tea that Lu Xu brewed for him.

Seeing that Lu Xu and Yan Junqi had drunk all the wine, he drank the fruit tea in the water cup as well.

Lu Xu looked at him with a smile and gave Lu Zhou vegetables and meat, Lu Zhou inexplicably felt that his brother was very kind tonight.

Lu Xu touched his head, "In the past, my brother's vision was too narrow, Zhouzhou, you have to study hard, don't live up to the gentlemen who taught you, don't live up to Ah Hao, and don't live up to yourself, you will definitely become a very powerful person in the future." ”

Lu Zhou: "I think my brother is a very powerful person. ”

Lu Xu smiled embarrassedly and gave him meat.

After listening to the guards of the general who were lying on the roof of the Lu family to protect them, they passed it to Fan Xiao as it was.

On the opening day of Ruiwang's restaurant, Lu Xu did not go to the restaurant to join in the fun, but packed the luggage at home, and the first car loaded was Lu Zhou's whole rack of books and five large jars of sesame sauce. The guards saw it and told Fan Xiao as it was.

It just so happened that Jiang Hao found him again and asked if he could ask his uncle to borrow some people to escort Lu Zhou and them to Beiting County, and then write a letter to General Wei, telling the Tiger Army and the Dragon and Tiger Battalion to protect their safety.

Fan Xiao felt that this group of children was really interesting, and couldn't help but talk to Emperor Hong'an and Taishi He.

Emperor Hong'an laughed, "My official department is still in the book, and no child can figure it out. ”

Fan Xiaoxin said, who told you to send Yan Hanlin to the northwest against common sense, the officials also came according to the rules of the process, why shouldn't they send him there.

Taishi He also smiled: "They also asked Song Zhi about me, saying that they wanted to send some things to Beiting County, and there is no county government over there, can you let Chengye collect it on their behalf." ”

Emperor Hong'an: "Promise him!" I'd like to see what he's going to send. ”

He Taishi smiled bitterly: "Chengye is the overseer, and it is collected by Chengye, but it is a military post that goes." ”

Emperor Hong'an: "The military post is the military post." ”

Soon, the three of them saw how Lu Xu used the official post and military post as his own chariot and horse, and he managed to create the momentum of a caravan by himself.

The impeachment of He Taishi by the DPRK and the Central Committee was not as he expected, and it fell like snowflakes.

Fan Xiao silently paid attention to the various things that Lu Xu bought, and couldn't help but sigh to Taishi He: "No wonder you must transfer him to the northwest." ”

If he knew about Lu Xu when he was fighting, he would have been pulled to be a quartermaster.

The author has something to say:

Lu Xu: My brother, that's amazing.

Lu Zhou: My brother is amazing.

Jiang Hao: Only my sad world has been achieved.

Chapter 269: The More You Eat, the Hungrier You Get

Ruiwang's Guanhai Building opened, and the one-person-high super-large birthday cake shocked the guests.

Although some people think that it is unseemly to use birthday cakes for the opening of the store to celebrate the birthday of a newly opened store, but for the sake of King Rui's face, he endured it first.

On this day, there was a lot of noise, and half of the hundred officials who were eager to fight were invited to arrive, and those who did not arrive were finally made up a reason for being sick and having something, and sent someone over to inform them.

For no other reason, King Rui invited the crown prince and the imperial grandson.

The age difference between the prince and King Rui is small, and he has a good relationship with this little uncle when he is a child, and it is a day of rest, so of course he is willing to come and join in the fun.

Jiang Hao is even more fond of lively temperament, not only did he come, but also brought two companions.

But today he was still in a low mood because Lu Zhou was leaving. Looking at such a big birthday cake, I didn't feel much happy.

King Rui asked the prince to cut the first knife, the prince refused, and finally King Rui cut it, he cut off the top of the largest longevity peach for people to send to the concubine, and cut a crane and a tiger for the prince and the emperor and grandson respectively.

Guan Qian's modeling skills, due to the characteristics of the cream and the influence of Lu Xu, are all made round and fat, and the fat crane is sent to the prince, which makes the prince happy, and King Rui still treats him as a child every day.

Other people's birthday cakes were cut by Guan Qian, ensuring that everyone above the third grade had a pattern in their hands, and other officials also had cream in their hands.

Those courtiers who have never patronized the Yuehui Mansion and have never eaten cream cakes can be considered to understand why the Yuehui Mansion is so popular.

"How did this thing make it so soft?"

"I don't know."

"It's good to feed the old, weak, women and children."

But where can the elderly, the weak, the women and children afford to eat?

The civil officials, whose families were not well-off, couldn't help but sigh.

I want to mention the pen again.

After the dessert is eaten, all the private rooms are opened, and they are free to choose and take their seats.

The courtiers from all over the world were quite surprised when they saw the private room for the first time.

There are also many restaurants in the capital that sell local dishes, but one restaurant gathers all the counties of Daqi, and this is the first one.

They are looking for their hometown with great interest.

Signs of each county were hung outside the door, and King Rui deliberately made people upside down to see who could find the wrong home.

Those who were born in the capital were even encouraged by their colleagues to find their hometown to see if they could identify them.

Just walking, civil officials will inevitably bump into a few nobles or military attachés, and they really hate each other.

Today is mainly a visit, the prince deliberately wants to ease the contradiction of the court situation, the guests and hosts are happy, he took Jiang Hao and King Rui to look at each room, look at things and objects everywhere and guess where this is and where it is.

Every time the prince or King Rui guesses wrong, the people in the room will introduce them to the special specialties of their hometown.

Not only the crown prince found it interesting, but even this group of officials found it interesting.

It was the first time for Jiang Hao to see so many daily necessities from different regions so intuitively, and it was a lot of fun to listen to other people's explanations while looking at the paintings.

It was only that they soon found that some of the big county houses were full and even had to stand, while others were empty and sparsely populated.

When I arrived in Longxing County, there was no one left.

It was Lu Zhou, as a native of Longxing, who introduced Jiang Hao, the crown prince and King Rui.

and then to the newly established Dingbei County, there is no one.

Lu Xu arranged many barbarian objects according to his understanding, as well as many bone carvings, paintings, and musical instruments, which he had worked hard to collect, but unfortunately no one came to appreciate them.

Lu Zhou has never been to the northern border, and he doesn't know much about it, and he can't even say too much about the civil officials who are famous for their erudition and strong knowledge, but there are still people among the nobles who have been to the battlefield and explain it to them.

The group of nobles were proud, they knew more than that group of sour scholars!

When it was time to set up the feast and serve the food, if you couldn't sit down in your own room, you had to go to the other empty rooms, and then the empty rooms that no one was in demand again—

They would rather sit in a room full of barbarian ornaments than share a table with their political enemies.

When the dishes came up one after another, they found that the main dish was not stir-fry.

The dishes in each room are still quite local dishes, and stir-fried dishes are only complementary and embellished.

They were surprised, isn't this the cooperation between King Rui and Lu Xu?

Those nobles who originally had opinions on Lu Xu suddenly had a good impression of Guanhailou by a few points.

They made up for it, Lu Xu just worked for King Rui, and King Rui had the final say on what he did.

However, the truth of the matter is that King Rui wants to use all the stir-fried vegetables, and he has arrested Lu Xu, how can he not use it?

However, Lu Xu repeatedly brainwashed him, we want to make high-end dishes, and if we want to stand out in the whole capital, we must be distinctive enough.

Stir-fried food is too popular in the southern city, and many of the nobles in the northern city stubbornly think that eating stir-fried vegetables will lose its value, how can they let customers lose its value?

They must be allowed to eat expensive and high-grade dishes, and the same dishes are three or four times more expensive than elsewhere, which is in line with their status.

Lu Xu also deliberately ordered the tableware, the standard is that the plate is large and the dishes are few, so that Guan Qian and the other two chefs work hard to figure out the plate, to put the plate out of flowers, how to be fancy, and how to come, the purpose is to use the same thing to make them willing to pay a few more dollars.

He searched for the famous dishes of various counties in Oki, and if it is not authentic, do his best, and if it is not authentic, let the guy tell the customer that the ingredients are limited, and humbly ask the locals for advice on how to improve.

He also trained the men on how to praise their own food, what vegetables come from what mountains, where they come from and how far away they are transported from a long distance, what legends there are, which poet wrote what poems, how many processes are paid attention to when making them, and so on.

In short, it is necessary to boast about it.

They are all trained and recited according to different private rooms, and they are still a little nervous about business today, blowing while serving food, and the officials from all over the country are confused, what is the situation, is a wild vegetable in their hometown so exquisite?

Buddy: "Picking wild vegetables is the same as picking tea, especially pay attention to the origin and season, we use the alpine wild vegetables picked from the eastern slope of 500 to 1,000 meters, the sunshine is not much, a lot, the growth is not fast, not slow, cleaner than the edge of the field, fresh and tender, the nutrition is more balanced, you taste carefully, the taste is also sweeter." ”

Officials: "......"

Don't say it, I really haven't tasted it.

The guy looked at them with big eyes, and said that he couldn't eat it at this time, did he seem to be particularly level-less and had never seen the world?

Someone stubbornly said, "It seems to be better than at home." ”

The man immediately added: "The water we use is also mountain spring water in the deep mountains, and the spring is only the size of a bowl, which is very sweet. ”

Officials: "......"

Such a big spring, everyone has hidden it in the mountains, and you have found it?!

Someone curiously inquired about how much this wild vegetable is, man: "The daily menu of our store is decided according to the ingredients of the day, don't be old, don't be too tender, don't be fresh, don't be in good condition, don't be too big, don't ...... if it's too small."
