Chapter 60: What is a True Master?
Wenfeng Tower's iron ball landing experiment and Wang Yi's scolding swept the entire Luoyang City, although Qin Xianao was scolded, but the experiment indirectly proved that it was possible for him to escape from a height of 10,000 meters, so many people began to believe that the wine boy was not fake, and more people paid attention to the 'newspaper' that the wine boy came to Luoyang this time to run.
At this time, Shen He also unleashed his strong business talent.
In a short period of time, a post called 'Xiongwen Ti' began to circulate in Luoyang City, and it is said that only those who get this kind of post can buy the 'newspaper' issued by the wine boy.
On this day, the sun was shining.
On a street in Luoyang City, Qin Shengbao and Qian Liwen drank morning tea.
"Brother Saxo, today is the first day of the newspaper, are you really not going to buy a newspaper?"
"What is there to buy, it's just that Qin Immortal is arrogant and grandstanding. Qin Shengbao snorted coldly, Qian Liwen laughed secretly in his heart, of course he knew why Qin Shengbao was like this. "The word love hurts people, Senior Sister Wanqing may not have anything to see with Qin Xianao, but ...... However, Senior Brother Saxo is also, Senior Sister Wanqing didn't go to the Dragon God Palace, he didn't disdain Senior Sister Wanqing at all, but now he ...... "Qian Liwen is drinking tea leisurely."
"Sell newspapers, sell newspapers, Qin Xianao is the first newspaper, the whole city will make a profit, you can buy one copy with only seven copper plates!" the child's shout sounded.
Qian Liwen's eyes lit up.
"Kid, what do you say, this newspaper really only has seven copper plates?"
The boy ran over: "That's right, sir, you only need seven copper plates, but you have to have a 'Xiongwen post' first, otherwise, you just take seventy copper plates, and I won't sell them." β
"Oh, the little doll is quite majestic. Qian Liwen said with a smile, although Xiongwen is difficult to get, but it is for ordinary citizens, and it is still easy to get as long as they have the heart of Lizheng Academy. "This is my post, come. Grab a newspaper. "Qian Liwen has paid for it.
"Boy, come here, I want a copy too. β
"Hey, big brother, do you want it too?" the kid ran to the running boy. The other guests in the hall also had strange eyes.
The guy who ran the hall smiled at the child: "What, I can't buy newspapers?" In fact, for the things that Qin Xianao made, it must be a scholar, and he didn't want to pay attention to it, but it was only seven yuan. It was just a fraction of the price of buying a piece of paper, which he could fully afford.
"Brother Runtang, you have to show me your Xiongwen post first. β
"Wait a minute. "Ran Tang Lian rushed into the back room. "Shopkeeper, didn't you have a Xiongwen post a few days ago, can you give me a copy?" Xiao Er said. The shopkeeper glared at Xiao Er: "The day before yesterday was given to you, you don't want it, what now?" "Who made that newspaper only seven cents, so cheap, not to mention that one is ten percent of a hundred, I can afford it." Xiao Er said with a smile.
The shopkeeper nodded. took out a post from his body and threw it to him: "Let's go, I'll buy a copy too." β
A newspaper only needs seven copper plates, which caused a sensation all of a sudden, and many people who were not going to buy it were going to buy it at this time.
On a table, newspapers were spread out.
"Huh?"
Qian Liwen's eyes lit up, a newspaper was full of words, but this kind of text was different from all the printed books he had seen. "This Qin Xianao is really a bit famous, these lines seem to be written with an iron pen, and the lines are extremely thin. How did you do it in such a short period of time?"
"Young and new?"
Qian Liwen looked at the three words on the first page of the newspaper, the whole page of the newspaper, only these three words were the size of square inches. The rest are also not much bigger than the thumb. "What does it mean to be young?" Qian Liwen was puzzled in his heart, and looked at the other words in the newspaper, his brows furrowed, he knew every word in the newspaper, but when it came up, he Qian Liwen couldn't read it.
"What's going on?" Qian Liwen was a little dumbfounded. "Could it be that Qin Xianao's talent is so high that I can't even read the articles he write......s?"
"New youth?" a voice rang out.
Although Qin Shengbao, who was sitting next to him, was apprehensive to Qin Xianao, but Qian Liwen bought the newspaper, he couldn't help but be curious, and when he looked over from the side, his location was different from Qian Liwen's, and at this time, there were three big words 'New Youth' in his eyes.
"What is this, is it the name of the newspaper?" Qin Shengbao muttered.
"New youth?" Qian Liwen looked at the three words on the top of the newspaper's eyebrows, suddenly understood, and smiled dumbly: "It turns out that his typesetting method is not from right to left, but from left to right. Qian Liwen made this discovery, and carefully read the other words again, and found that not only the reading method of this typesetting was from left to right, but also not the normal vertical reading of lines and rows, but the horizontal typesetting.
"This Qin Xianao likes to make a new name. Qian Liwen was a little disdainful, and his eyes began to read behind the three big words "New Youth".
"The king takes the people as the sky, and the people take food as the sky, Confucius said, 'Food and color, sex also!', and said......"
At the beginning, Qian Liwen was stunned again, this article called "Country Kitchen", every word of the article is so vulgar that it can't be vulgar anymore.
"What?"
Qian Liwen wanted to tear up the newspaper.
"It's horizontal again, it's vernacular again, and it's grandstanding...... However, after all, it cost seven cents, and idleness is also idleness...... For the first time, Qian Liwen had a trace of disgust for the wine-colored boy in his heart, he suppressed the disgust in his heart, and looked at it, just read a dozen sentences and fell into his mind, although the text language of this article is in the vernacular, but it is fresh and natural to read, there is a timeless feeling like drinking beautiful tea, and there is no jerky feeling of reading ancient texts, people's attention is easy to ignore the text into the real story, so at this moment Qian Liwen feels very comfortable, very comfortable, which is rare when reading ancient texts.
The article is about a chef who has reached the top of his skills, because he encountered a strong wind on a sea boat, and the boat was blown to a small seaside township, and the chef ate the Dongpo meat made by a peasant woman in this township, and its taste was incomparably delicious, and it was only three points worse than the chef, and the chef was greatly surprised, in a small remote and poor mountain village, there was no master of cooking skills to teach various techniques, and he could reach such a level of cooking skills with talent, he cherished his talent, so he accepted this woman as a disciple, and then hurried back to the capital with his disciplesγ
Although there are many disciples of the god chef, none of them have really learned all his skills, and everyone is afraid that they will make a mistake in cooking for the emperor and lose their heads, so after discussion, they put a set on this new female disciple of the god chef and let her cook for the emperor.
Although this female disciple worships the Divine Chef as her teacher, she is in a hurry all the way, and in fact, she has not learned any skills from the Divine Chef.
But all the senior brothers pushed her to the stage, she came from a remote village, simple-minded, she didn't understand the conspiracy and calculation of these seemingly kind brothers, and she was very interested in cooking the chef, and soon made a table of food.
Just when the brothers thought she would be questioned.
This meal was unexpectedly popular with the emperor, and other officials who had tasted it also thought that there was nothing more delicious in the world.
After the Divine Chef woke up and tasted the dishes of his female disciple, he was also stunned, this dish was even more delicious than him, so the Divine Chef wondered why when he was in the countryside, the dishes made by this female disciple were worse than his own, but now he is ......
After careful investigation, Chef Shen learned that when he was in the countryside, the material used by the female disciple to make him 'Dongpo Meat' was just ordinary tofu and winter melon and green vegetables, not pork as he originally thought, and this time he used real meat.
......
A chef who can do a good job of 'Liaohan Quanxi' is not necessarily a real chef, but a chef who can do a good job of green vegetables and tofu is a real chef. Knowing the truth, the Chef sighed.
Seeing this, Qian Liwen thought that this article was over, but unexpectedly it was written below.
"A true chef is never limited by the limitations of materials, and this is true of cooking skills, all kinds of skills, and even more so of learning. β
"Today's academic world. β
"We can use the rhythm, rhyme, and song to write the strange text, so as to cook meat, sauce, vinegar, wine, thirteen spices, green onions, garlic, ginger, the material is good, then the taste is beautiful, if you are given a green vegetable tofu, can you also make Dongpo meat?"
"I run this 'New Youth' newspaper. β
"In this warmly to the world's masters, but also here, the requirements of this draft, must not use 'meat' as the material, only to the homely chatter, three-year-old children can also read the vernacular as the material......"
See this.
"Is it the hardest thing to write in the vernacular?" Qian Liwen's heart trembled slightly, yes, as long as the skills of big fish and meat are not very bad, you can make excellent deliciousness, but green vegetable tofu, no matter how you do it, it is also the taste of green vegetable tofu, how can you make green vegetable tofu into a peerless dish like Dongpo meat? This is the real test of skills.
Qian Liwen took a slight breath and looked down, but below it was a vernacular poem, the poem only had four sentences, which was the "Broken Chapter" that the Qin Dynasty had written on the ground.
"Poetry?"
Qian Liwen continued to read it and read it in one go.
"This ......"
Qian Liwen was completely stunned, the vernacular was used in poetry, and he did not pay attention to rhyme, rhyme, number of paragraphs, number of sentences, number of words, level, and sentence structure...... And so on, it is also shocking, its rhyme is beautiful, the realm is far-reaching and multi-layered, no less than real poetry.
Qian Liwen looked down again.
"The swallow has gone, and there is a time to come again, and the willow is withered, and there is a time to be green again, and ......"
"I don't know how many days they gave me, but my hands are getting empty......"
"Though those who go are gone, and those who come are coming, and in the middle of coming, how hasty are they ?......?"
......
This is the Qin Dynasty's copy of Zhu Ziqing's famous article "Hurry", after reading this prose, Qian Liwen had only one thought in his mind: "Really, this is true, green vegetables and tofu can also make delicious dishes." After throwing away the rules of those ancient texts, the articles written seem to be straightforward and simple, but they are like a cup of tea, although they are not as exciting as sugar water, but they also have an endless aftertaste, and they are not weaker than ancient texts in terms of artistic conception.
Qian Liwen read it one by one, the more he looked at his forehead, the more sweaty he became, and all the articles were in the vernacular, but if you want to say that this vernacular is not good, unless you have a clear conscience. (To be continued.) )
