Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Most Incompetent Traverser in History (1)
Huang Xueheng also simply kowtowed to Guo Dalu on behalf of his son Huang Manyuan, which was regarded as a bow to the teacher, and he also changed his name, no longer calling Guo Dalu a "virtuous nephew", but "Master Guo", jumped in the car, and took the stupid big man and Li Bo to whip away.
Huang Manyuan, who was squatting behind the carriage, ate a mouthful of ashes, saw that his father did not say goodbye, ran a few steps after the carriage, paused again, opened his mouth, seemed to want to call, and closed it again.
Guo Dalu shook his head and stepped forward to take Huang Manyuan's hand: "You will follow me in the future-play with me." ”
Huang Manyuan looked at Guo Dalu sideways, and suddenly said, "Teach me to hatch eggs." ”
Guo Dalu smiled and said: "Okay, I'll teach you to hatch eggs, but now there are still some necessary things missing, and I can't hatch them for the time being, and when the things are ready in the future, I will definitely teach you." He knew that autistic children were mentally incomplete, just like young children, and immediately coaxed: "Man Yuan, you like to hatch eggs so much, do you like to eat eggs?" ”
Before Huang Manyuan could answer, Li Huaqi next to him said: "Tea eggs? What is this? This tea is used to make tea and drink, what does it have to do with eggs?"
Guo Dalu snorted: "Senior Brother Li, have you never heard of tea eggs?" He looked at Brother Hao again: "Brother Hao, have you heard of it?" Brother Hao also shook his head.
Guo Dalu laughed: "If you don't eat tea eggs, even if you are a hero, it is in vain, how can I have no tea eggs, I can't afford to eat tea eggs, but it's the same as the toilet has no door, and I want to be looked down upon for the rest of my life! Brother Hao, go, yesterday Sister-in-law Zhang from Huancun next door gave me a basket of eggs to thank me for my hard work in teaching the children in Huancun. ”
Guo Dalu turned around and patted Huang Manyuan, who was following behind him: "Manyuan, you are really a lucky general, on the first day of your apprenticeship, you inspired the teacher to make a move, and created a tea egg that shocked the world and cried ghosts and gods." Hahaha, I didn't mistake you as an apprentice. ”
Li Hua knew that his little brother often had some whimsical ideas that the world could not understand, so he let Guo Dalu mess around, and turned back to the straw paper workshop, and once again proofread the "Three Character Classic" and other articles, the straw paper workshop has now improved the process and raw materials, and created a batch of excellent ink printing paper, just waiting for the proofreading to be completed and printed with a new arrangement, punctuation, layout style of the children's enlightenment book.
At first, Li Hua was worried about printing a large number of enlightenment books, and the raw materials such as paper and ink were not enough, but after seeing the gold brought by Huang Xueheng just now, he knew that he was too worried, his little brother is now a big rich man, and he must encourage him to print more books and sell them all over the world at a very low price.
Huang Manyuan is actually a very good child, as long as he doesn't talk to him, he sits quietly on the side, doesn't say or move, and even the focus of his eyes is not on other people's bodies.
In the workshop, Li Hua is carving wax paper by himself, and he is a little unaccustomed to the horizontal layout from left to right, so he writes a little slowly.
Guo Dalu is looking at a new batch of straw paper - the quality of straw paper is now getting closer and closer to modern toilet paper with the improvement of raw materials, but the straw paper from the Houlong Village workshop is more environmentally friendly because it does not use chemicals such as luminoses and bleaching powder.
Guo Dalu smiled bitterly in his heart, after the people crossed, they were all talents who passed through the heavens and latitudes, either the emperor or the prime minister, he was good, the most important business in the Great Li Dynasty was actually toilets and straw paper, if the travelers knew, they had to scold themselves for being the most incompetent time-traveler in history.
Brother Hao trotted in: "Brother Guo, I brought you all the eggs and miscellaneous things you wanted." --Since Li Hua recognized Guo Dalu as his senior brother, Brother Hao and other children originally wanted to call Guo Dalu their master, but Guo Dalu was not happy to live or die, saying that he was called old in life, and still let everyone call him "Brother Guo".
Guo Dalu clapped his hands and said, "Okay, there is something delicious now." He took matters into his own hands, cleaned the eggs, put them in the cauldron, threw all the old tea leaves, cinnamon, star anise and other things into it, and poured a spoonful of soy sauce, Li Hua glanced at the side, looked at the egg soaked in a pot of black soy sauce water, and shook his head: "Little brother, you just spoil things, a good egg is made whole by you, can you still eat it?"
Guo Dalu also ignored Li Hua, only let Brother Hao burn the fire under the stove, and after the fire boiled, it turned into a small fire, slowly burning, after a while, Guo Dalu was restless again, opened the lid of the pot, knocked it with a wooden spoon, and cracked all the eggshells, but it was cracked but not broken.
Li Hua grinned in pain, if it weren't for Guo Dalu being his senior brother, he would definitely have to reprimand him, this egg is a good thing in the countryside, ordinary people themselves are reluctant to eat it, and they exchange it for salt and rice, but Guo Dalu is so bad.
The eggs were boiling in the pot for a while, and Huang Manyuan, who had been sitting in the corner silently, suddenly said, "It's so fragrant." ”
Li Hua sniffled, and sure enough, from the smell of ink in the workshop, he smelled a peculiar aroma, which came from Guo Dalu's so-called tea egg pot.
Guo Dalu said with a smile: "This tea egg is called fragrant if it is boiled all night, but we don't have this water grinding kung fu today." Guo Dalu took out an egg with a few tea leaves hanging on the surface, blew in his hand, couldn't wait to peel off the eggshell, and took a bite: "It's delicious, it's delicious." ”
Li Hua leaned over and looked at the half egg in Guo Dalu's hand suspiciously, the egg was originally supposed to be a white egg skin, but now it has turned yellow, and it still has the lines left by the broken eggshell after being cooked for a long time, looking dirty, "This thing is really edible?"
Before Guo Dalu could answer, Huang Manyuan suddenly walked over from the corner of the wall, fished an egg by himself, peeled the eggshell in three or two clicks, and one bite was more than half an egg, Guo Dalu laughed: "It's still Manyuan who knows the goods, Brother Hao, come, you can eat one too." ”
Brother Hao answered, peeled an egg, and took a bite: "Hey, this egg is boiled with tea leaves, the taste is really unique, with the aroma of tea leaves, slightly salty, much better than boiled eggs." ”
Guo Dalu said proudly: "Of course, this tea egg is a famous food through the ages--well, I mean that this tea egg I invented will definitely be passed down through the ages in the future, endlessly, an egg in hand, I have it in the world--"
Li Hua listened to Guo Dalu's nonsense, smelled the unique aroma of tea eggs, couldn't help it, and also took an egg - tea eggs look dirty on the outside, in fact, whether it is tea, cinnamon, star anise, soy sauce, they are all common food, and it should be okay to eat one. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- thanks to Paladin Candle Day, Holy Angel, and Majestic Men for their tips.
