I opened a tavern in Datang/Datang: My peerless talent was exposed

Early the next morning, when Li Shimin got up to go to the morning court, Empress Changsun got up suddenly, and then began to dress Hongyu together.

Because I came to the door today as a private businessman, so whether it is clothing or jewelry, I have to pay attention to it.

Moreover, when dressing Hongyu at this moment, Empress Zhangsun felt excited that her sister was going to get married. Now she asked Hongyu to change her clothes, and now she asked Hongyu to change her headgear.

Empress Changsun dressed Hongyu like a porcelain doll, making Hongyu sit there dumbfounded.

It is also thanks to the fact that the defense between men and women at this time is far from being as serious as it was in the Ming and Qing Dynasties.That's why there are unmarried men and women who meet and chat, which is not much different from later generations.

But if it is placed in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, such a thing is almost impossible without even thinking about it.

Not long after, Li Shimin rushed over after the court, and immediately urged Empress Changsun to change his clothes as soon as he entered the palace gate.

Then Li Shimin, who took off the dragon robe, jumped onto the carriage without saying a word, and was about to go out in a hurry.

This time the team was a bit big, with a carriage for Li Shimin, Empress Changsun and Hongyu, and five carriages pulling money behind. Kaihuafang drove away.

Sitting in the carriage, Hongyu listened to Empress Changsun talking about some of the miracles of shopkeeper Xiao Zhang that she had experienced herself, and some that she heard from her husband.

According to her, shopkeeper Xiao Zhang has become a rare smart person in the world, a young talent, talented, and full of knowledge.

Hongyu listened quietly, although she didn't say anything, she was actually looking forward to it in her heart.

Which girl is not pregnant?

Originally thought that after rejecting Li Shimin, he could only struggle in the palace for the rest of his life, and in the end, the green lantern and wild fire accompanied him for the rest of his life.

But she didn't expect that there would be a chance to marry out of the palace in this golden age, which made her a little bit looking forward to and a little scared. She was always a little envious when she heard the little sisters in the palace talking about their life at home.

She has lived in the palace and palace since she was a child, and has never enjoyed the fun of such an ordinary family.

I hope that the shopkeeper Xiao Zhang is really as funny as the queen said. This kind of opportunity does not come often. If you miss this time, you don’t know when the next time will be.

Chapter 34

Zhang Nuo is still on the bed at the moment, his eyes are blank in a daze.

It's not that he wants to stay in bed, but that he has no clothes to wear right now!

The consequence of this skyrocketing figure is that just after dawn, Lao Fang and the younger sister jumped out as soon as the door opened.

They had to buy clothes for Zhang Nuo. They had to buy daily home clothes, outer robes for going out, and other things such as hunting clothes.

Some can directly buy ready-to-wear, and then modify it on the spot according to Zhang Nuo's body shape, and some have to report data to order.

And this time because all the clothes, including winter clothes, have to be bought again, so the workload is still relatively large.

Zhang Nuo didn't want to wear "tight clothes" like last night, so he had to be pinned on the bed by the younger sister, waiting for Lao Fang and the younger sister to come back from shopping.

Then he started to squint his eyes and get dazed for a while from time to time, and from time to time he would lie on the bed and stare out the window for a while.

In the end, I couldn't take it anymore, and I put on yesterday's tights and climbed up very embarrassingly.

He's planning to bring some snacks out now, it's fine if he doesn't smoke when he comes to Datang, and there are very few snacks, which is too much to suffer.

It just so happens that there is still a lot of sweet-scented osmanthus honey for wine making at home. In this golden autumn and October, it would be perfect to make some sweet-scented osmanthus cakes.

It's good to open a restaurant at home. It's not too simple to get something to eat.

Just yesterday, he soaked a big vat of glutinous rice in cold water. He originally planned to make some glutinous rice cakes, rice cakes, etc., and now he just used it.

Zhang Nuo immediately called the Da Zhuang brothers to come over to work. As soon as the two brothers heard that there was something to eat that was not available in Chang'an City, they immediately ran over.

Zhang Nuo also has subordinates at the moment, so he naturally has to order them around, not to mention saving time and effort, and gaining a good reputation for teaching attentively.

Take the glutinous rice out of the water tank, wash it again, and then start to steam it in a big pot.

At the same time, Zhang Nuo began to explain to Da Zhuang brothers the easiest way to make osmanthus cake in memory.

While talking, I got a large handful of sesame seeds and started frying them over low heat.

The roasted sesame seeds on top of the sweet-scented osmanthus cake are simply delicious.

Soon, the glutinous rice was steamed. Zhang Nuo took a large clean basin, poured the glutinous rice, sweet-scented osmanthus honey, frosting sugar and freshly fried sesame into it, and stirred it evenly.

Find two more rolling pins and hand them to the two brothers, just say, make a mess, just make it into a big sticky ball.

The two brothers are honest and honest, since the master has already explained what they are going to do, then what are you talking about, just do it quickly.

It happened that the half-year-old guy had enough strength, and the two of them surrounded the big basin, and they still had a sense of rhythm.

Anyway, it's cool to be ordered around. Before Zhang Nuo got enough of commanding people's appetite, this big pot of materials was basically mixed up.

Zhang Nuo asked the two brothers to carry a large basin and went directly to the backyard, found a clean wooden frame and a large piece of clean white cloth, and directly poured the materials into the middle of the wooden frame that had been covered with white cloth.

After the pressed porcelain was solid, I took a small brush and began to brush a layer of sweet-scented osmanthus honey on it, then sprinkled a little sesame seeds, then rolled it with a rolling pin, and it was done!

Zhang Nuo also did a demonstration, and the Da Zhuang brothers took over the subsequent work, which is called applying what they have learned.

Not long after, there were more than a dozen small wooden frames in the room in the backyard.

The whole room is now filled with a strong scent of sweet-scented osmanthus, and those who don't know think it is the boudoir of some girl.

The work is basically done by this time, and the rest is waiting for the sweet-scented osmanthus cake to cool down and cut into pieces.

In fact, there are many ways to make sweet-scented osmanthus cake in later generations, including those with cream, condensed milk, and horseshoe powder.

Zhang Nuo didn't have those western things on hand at the moment, he just made snacks for himself, instead of calling the sweet-scented osmanthus cake, it would be more appropriate to call it sweet-scented osmanthus-flavored rice cake.

Anyway, Zhang Nuo didn't care about it, so he did it. Chef Zhang officially named it Osmanthus Cake!

And when these sweet-scented osmanthus cakes were ready, Lao Fang and the younger sister came back, and Zhang Nuo finally didn't have to wear this tights that he was worried about breaking when he bent over.

His overalls, Lao Fang, are Yanju clothes with straight sleeves specially made by Lao Fang according to his requirements, which are actually a bit similar to the trench coats of later generations.

This kind of swallow's suit does not have the wide-sleeved and large skirt that reflects the owner's elegance and luxury when going out. It is most suitable for wearing at home when doing something.

Moreover, Zhang Nuo also likes this kind of clothes that are similar to those of the later generations the most. The regular clothes with wide sleeves and long skirts are handsome, but they always feel like they are going for a ride inside the sleeves.

After changing into suitable clothes, Zhang Nuo was finally able to open the door.

There's no way, wearing that tights before, it doesn't matter if you run back and forth around the house, it's a bit unsightly to open the door for business.

Now that it's tidied up, it's time to get back to work, and Lao Li is going to send money today, he plans to get some dishes that he likes to eat.

Steamed pork ribs, steamed pork, sweet and sour pork, braised pork...

Recipes for carnivores are just that simple and straightforward.

Before Lao Li came, Zhang Nuo pulled Da Zhuang and the two brothers into the kitchen again to work.

In fact, things like tamales are so simple that they are outrageously simple. They are the famous lazy kitchen series in later generations.

Of course, it is mainly because of the highly developed commodity supply system in later generations that the rice noodles for seasoning can be directly purchased as finished products.

There's nothing to do at the moment, it's simple, just do it yourself, that's a big deal, and it's not complicated.

It just so happens that this thing can be made more at one time, and it will be a regular signature dish in the store, an absolute beef fork.

Command the two brothers to start cutting the meat, cut the fat and lean mutton delivered today into slices, then put it in a pot under cold water, and remove the slick oil after boiling the pot.

Then add ginger, cinnamon, star anise, and salt and cook for about ten minutes. At this time, the smell of mutton is basically gone, and it happens to be delicious.

Then crush the fried rice with a rolling pin, add salt and five-spice powder, and stir well, so that the steamed meat rice noodles are basically ready.

Later, you only need to mix the processed mutton with these rice noodles, put it on the steamer and steam it directly, and you can eat it when you take it out.

In fact, he likes to eat pork the most, but it is a pity that eating pork is not very popular at the moment, and the breed of pigs may not be right, and there is no habit of castration and breeding.Therefore, the taste of pork that I bought several times before was not quite right.

However, as a top chef and even a top foodie, he has already ordered dozens of castrated pigs, and he will try them when the time comes, and if he succeeds, he will have more special dishes in his shop in the future.

A good restaurant is to let customers not only eat delicious food, but also some special dishes that cannot be eaten in other places.

Chapter 35 Zhang Nuo's Splendid Chapter

After finishing all the things he wanted to do, Zhang Nuo was surprised to find that Lao Li hadn't come yet.

This is a bit of that.

Usually when I have nothing to do, I can catch up with people for breakfast, but today I have a serious business, and I have to send money.

It's almost lunch time, why don't you come?

Zhang Nuo, who was thinking about the large sum of money he was about to receive, would not want to stay in the backyard as usual.

After thinking about it, it was all right. After thinking about it carefully, I looked at the lobby of my house. The decoration and furniture were a bit crude.

Moreover, there is a piece of writing on the wall that Lao Zhang insisted on keeping, "Lao Zhang is very powerful". Those who don't know it think it is someone who didn't read well and wrote it scribbled.

It just so happens that I have achieved great feats now, and I have already passed seven or eight percent of Yan Zhenqing's true biography in one stroke. If I don't show off this full of poems and songs, I am really sorry for my status as a time traveler!

Interested, Zhang Nuo immediately called the little girl over. Although the little girl didn't know Chinese characters, she was good at ink research.

Besides, no matter how you say it, you are the top calligrapher of this era, so you must have this card!

It's not the first time that the young girl has helped Zhang Nuo grind ink. The young girl skillfully added water and picked up the inkstone to grind it carefully.

The woman has red sleeves and the man is gentle and elegant. The two stand in front of a table in the lobby. Although they don't speak, everything is so natural and beautiful.

Zhang Nuo was in a better mood when his younger sister rubbed the ink for him. He closed his eyes, recalled for a moment, adjusted his state, opened his eyes, and the pen was like a snake, and three vigorous and vigorous words appeared on the paper—— "Humble Room Inscription"

In fact, the most suitable for this elegant essay should be the regular script in Yan style, but Zhang Nuo was impatient to write that, he always felt that if he didn't write a running script, he would not be able to reflect his level.

Moreover, Zhang Nuo feels that the whole article is not only ethereal, but also has a faint air of pretense, which can be fully displayed in running script.

Holding a pen and sinking his head into writing for himself, Zhang Nuo, intending to hang it on the wall for pretense, didn't notice at all. Just as he was writing the title, Li Shimin and his party came in with three people.

Seeing that Zhang Nuo was seriously writing, Li Shimin smiled and shook his head at Miss Zhang, signaling not to disturb her, and then quietly walked behind Zhang Nuo with the very interested Empress Changsun and Hongyu and watched silently.

But at the first glance, Li Shimin was shocked. He knew that Zhang Nuo could read and write, but he didn't expect Zhang Nuo to have such a good handwriting.

"Whether the mountain is high or not, it will be famous if there are immortals. If the water is not deep, there will be spirit if there are dragons."

After writing the first and second sentences, Li Shimin and others changed their faces instantly. These two sentences are not simple, and the opening is full of atmosphere. Whether it is mountains, waters, fairies, or dragons, it doesn't look like what a small restaurant owner should have. pattern.

Li Shimin was thinking secretly at this moment, could this be the true face of shopkeeper Xiao Zhang?

"This is a humble room, but my virtue is sweet."

Li Shimin's scalp was numb as he sucked his painful tooth root, and he looked at Empress Changsun in dismay. This sentence is a bit swollen!

What does this sentence mean, translated into the simplest vernacular is, although I live in a crappy house, I am quite awesome!

As soon as this sentence came out, Li Shimin's eyes turned green, and his face throbbed with pain. Why, this house was given to Lao Zhang by him back then!

Although it is not a mansion compound, but look at this location, Kaihuafang, and look at the decoration, although it is not very luxurious, but it is definitely elegant, do you still want to move to live in the palace?

Zhang Nuo continued to write "the moss marks are green, and the grass is green."

This is a description of the surrounding environment. Looking at the tranquil and elegant decorations around, as well as the unique green trees outside the gate of Chang'an City, and looking at the calligraphy of "Old Zhang is powerful" hanging on the wall, Li Shimin nodded silently. nod.

"Talk and laugh with ru, no contacts STOMATOLOGY."

Seeing this, all three of them had involuntary smiles on their faces. This flattery is cultured and connotative, which is more in place!

"You can tune the plain qin and read the golden scriptures. There is no messy ears of silk and bamboo, and no hard work of copybooks."

Li Shimin has a better understanding of this sentence. When he comes to shopkeeper Xiao Zhang, he should eat and drink, and he can relax to the extreme. He can chat about family affairs and trivial matters in the market. As long as he doesn't open his mouth, Zhang Nuo will never talk to him. National affairs.

For Li Shimin, who has been busy fighting wars or dealing with official business all day long, this is simply a resort!

Li Shimin reads quickly and thinks quickly, and Zhang Nuo is not slow to write,

"Zhuge Cottage in Nanyang, Yunting Pavilion in West Shuzi."

Hey, this is a big breath, who doesn't know the name of Zhuge Kongming?

Liu Xuande paid three visits to the thatched hut to invite this great talent, and forced Kong Ming's thatched hut to become an indispensable part of the eternal story.

As for Yang Ziyun, he was also a top scholar who wrote such great works as "Fa Yan" and "Tai Xuan" in the Han Dynasty, integrating Confucianism and Taoism.

Shopkeeper Xiao Zhang has put his small dilapidated tavern together with Zhuge Kongming's cottage and Yang Ziyun's reading pavilion!

With this tone, I don't know whether to say that the shopkeeper Xiao Zhang is full of confidence, or whether he should say a word of arrogance!

But before he could figure it out, Zhang Nuo had already written the last sentence of the full text.

"Confucius said: Why is there such a thing?"

Empress Changsun stood behind Zhang Nuo and saw that Zhang Nuo had finally finished writing and left the signature. She had a complicated expression on her face, applauded and sighed softly: "Peerless beautiful essay, eternal glory!"

Li Shimin couldn't understand Zhang Nuo anymore, and after hearing Empress Changsun's exclamation, he replied casually with emotion,

"Yes, there are only 81 characters, using analogies and complex techniques. The reading is ingenious and natural, and the song ends with a lingering sound, which makes people have endless aftertaste."
