Chapter 640 Thank Me for What?
Shen Yunfeng and Xu Yizhou changed into work clothes and followed the Sheng family girl into the operating room after obtaining the consent of the boss of the Sheng family.

I met the owner of Shengji Pure Handmade Tofu Shop, who is also the grandfather of the girl from the Sheng family—an old man with a kind face and a very kind and amiable face.

His son and daughter-in-law are also making tofu with the old man of the Sheng family.

After chatting with the old man of the Sheng family for a while, Shen Yunfeng saw that the time was almost right, and the main reason was that the old man of the Sheng family was very kind and easy to talk. After glancing at Xu Wanzhou, Shen Yunfeng looked at the old man and said, "Mr. There are characters on the tofu. At first I thought it was your family’s mark. Finally, I found that the writing style of the character was very simple, and it didn’t look like it was newly engraved, so I was a little curious. What's the matter with the words."

The old man of the Sheng family said with a smile that he has never been to school. Although he has been making tofu for 50 to [-] years, he also noticed that there are words on the stone slabs on which the tofu paste is pressed, but he never paid attention to it.

Shen Yunfeng smiled and said: "Old man, look at this, after the tofu is pressed, if it's convenient, I want to go and see that stone slab again."

The old man of the Sheng family said with a smile: "Then what's the inconvenience? After the tofu is ready, I'll ask Girl Ling to accompany you there."

Not long after, the girl from the Sheng family, that is, the Ling girl that the old man of the Sheng family spoke of, came in and said that the tofu was ready, and asked Shen Yunfeng and others to go and get it.

The old man of the Sheng family stood up and said to his granddaughter, "Girl Ling, please take these guests there, they want to see the stone slab where our tofu is pressed."

Shen Yunfeng and the others said goodbye to the old man of the Sheng family, and after he went upstairs to rest, they went to the tofu-making workshop with Girl Ling.

When the son of the old man of the Sheng family saw Shen Yunfeng and the other five people coming, he took off the thing that was pressing on the tofu, cut it up and packed it into several bags.

Although Shen Yunfeng said that there is no need to weigh it any more, and it will be calculated according to the 23 catties the old man said, but Ling girl still weighed the tofu in front of Shen Yunfeng and other five people.

Seeing that the final added weight showed that it was 23 catties over one or two, Shen Yunfeng and the other five people all admired the old man of the Sheng family's ability to estimate the weight.

"If you don't need so much, don't force it. There are still a few families in the village who didn't buy it this morning, so you can distribute it to them."

The son of the old man of the Sheng family said.

Shen Yunfeng paid the money with a smile, took the smallest piece, and asked to give away the rest.

The son of the old man of the Sheng family said thank you on behalf of the folks, and put the remaining tofu in a plastic box and gave it away.

Ling girl immediately began to wash the slate.

Xu Yizhou ran over to help with a smile.

Shen Yunfeng, Xu Wanzhou, Xu Qingzhou, and Xu Manzhou stood aside, looking at Girl Ling and Xu Yizhou who were washing the slate with different expressions.

After washing up, Shen Yunfeng, Xu Wanzhou and four other people immediately surrounded him.

Girl Ling glanced at Xu Yizhou, looked at Shen Yunfeng and said, "This should be considered a cultural relic."

When Shen Yunfeng heard this, he said "Oh", he looked away from the stone slab, looked up at Girl Ling who was standing opposite him and said, "Since you know this is a cultural relic, why didn't you hear your grandfather say that you mentioned it in front of him? Pass?"

"If you find a suitable buyer, maybe you can sell it for a good price."

Girl Ling smiled, and said calmly: "What should I do with the things passed down by my grandfather, I, a girl, don't care."

"Besides, the five generations of our Sheng family have used this slate to make tofu when making tofu. Speaking of which, we already have feelings for it."

Shen Yunfeng and the other five nodded at the same time.

"Look at it first, and let me know when you're done."

Girl Ling left the operating room after she finished speaking.

Xu Yizhou winked at Xu Manzhou, and the two went out together.

Accompanied by Xu Wanzhou and Xu Qingzhou, Shen Yunfeng began to look carefully at the stone slab in front of him.

The stone slab is about two and a half meters long and about one meter wide, with fifteen lines of convention and more than five hundred words engraved on it.

Shen Yunfeng leaned closer, looked at each word, saw the excitement, and couldn't help admiring: "The font takes advantage of the situation in the air, dignified and simple, like official script but also regular script, like official script but also implies the beauty of official script, absolutely It is a masterpiece in calligraphy."

"Haha, it's no wonder that countless famous scholars such as Kang Zuyi and Pan Dayi flocked to praise it, calling it the ultimate in official script and the first in divine grade!"

"No wonder, today, this font is still praised by countless calligraphers and enthusiasts, saying that it represents an aesthetic of Chinese characters, and it is also widely used by many well-known companies."

"Brother Yunfeng, the more I look at it, the more this stone slab looks like a monument."

Xu Qingzhou looked a little strange.

Xu Wanzhou looked up at Shen Yunfeng, smiled at Xu Qingzhou and said, "Third brother, be more confident and remove the word 'like'."

"This is really a stone monument!"

Xu Qingzhou exclaimed, and his complexion became worse.

Shen Yunfeng then looked up at Xu Qingzhou, raised his hand and gently touched the writings on the "slate" and said, "Qingzhou, I can say without exaggeration that the entire archaeological community in Shaanxi Province would like to thank you."

"no need thank me?"

"Thank you for making mapo tofu with the tofu made from the stele, and it's so delicious?"

Xu Qingzhou took two steps back, his eyes swept across the "stone slab", looking a little flustered
Shen Yunfeng smiled and said: "Qingzhou, I can say with certainty now that tomorrow, or the day after tomorrow at the latest, no one in this world will be able to eat tofu crushed by this 'slate'."

Xu Qingzhou took another look at the "stone tablet" from a distance, looked up at Shen Yunfeng and said, "What do you mean, are you going to buy this stone tablet?"

"It's not that I want to buy it," Shen Yunfeng shook his head, "I will ask Mr. Dong Qichang, who is quite important in the antique circle in Shaanxi Province, to come forward, and let people from the provincial museum come over to discuss the ownership of this stone wall with Mr. Sheng's family."

"After all, as Girl Ling said just now, this 'stone slab' has been in their Sheng family for more than 200 years. It can be said that Shengji pure handmade tofu has grown from scratch, and then became a direct witness of a well-known brand. Want to buy it? Go, or ask the Sheng family to donate, I guess it will be difficult."

Xu Qingzhou nodded, but still didn't want to go to see "Slate".

Xu Wanzhou looked at Xu Qingzhou, who had a distressed expression, and laughed so hard.

"This stele is commonly called the 'Cuan Zhenyan stele' in the archaeological circle," Shen Yunfeng said while looking at the "stone" in front of him, "Actually, after looking at the stele just now, I think its full name should be 'General Jin Zhenwei' The tombstone of Jian'an prefect Cuan Fujun!"

Xu Qingzhou exclaimed again: "It's terrible!"

"If it's just changing from a stone to a stone tablet, I can barely accept it. Now, it's suddenly changing from a stone tablet to a tombstone!"

"You don't know how much tofu I have eaten in the past three years."
