Every time I wear a book, I am forced to turn around

Not only did the Xia family have major doubts about life, but the Sun family who traveled with him were also confused.However, the Sun family is very honest. They may not be smart enough, but they know what is good. They didn't see Patriarch Xia expressing any opinions on Yan Jinyun's matter along the way, so they didn't say anything. They never retorted rashly, Gong Liang Sir, it's not like that!

The carriage drove all the way to Guan'er Hutong.Coolie said: "Speaking of which, Mr. Gongliang's apprentice lives in this area."

Sun Tieli finally couldn't bear it any longer, and said proudly, "Hey, he's my son!"

The coolie froze for a moment, and when he realized that Patriarch Xia and his party had something to do with Mr. Gongliang whom he had talked about all the way, he immediately became restrained.Ah, he just showed off in front of Mr. Sun's relatives!Patriarch Xia casually took out a few ounces of silver and tipped him. A joyful expression appeared on his face, and he slowly relaxed again.

The coolie thought about it for a second, he had been praising Mr. Gongliang all the way, although he couldn't help bragging a bit, but he shouldn't offend the nobleman.The coolie said cautiously: "Ah...my mouth...my mouth! But what I said just now is not nonsense. Although I have never met Mr. Gongliang with my own eyes, the matchmakers in our capital really dare not tell Mr. Gongliang Say kiss. A character like Mr. Gong Liang, how can ordinary people be worthy of it? Do you think so?"

Patriarch Xia smiled, but didn't speak.

The coolie continued to flatter, not only Yan Jinyun, but Patriarch Xia and the others, too: "You are Mr. Sun's relatives, you must have seen Mr. Gongliang's real face, right? Are you really exactly the same as the gods in the sky?"

This is a bit difficult to answer.

Patriarch Xia is a very cautious person, and he is well versed in conversation skills. Because he doesn't know why Yan Jinyun has gained such a reputation, it is inconvenient for him to tell the truth or lie, so he avoids the important and says lightly: " I was indeed fortunate to meet Mr. Gongliang a few years ago. At that time, Mr. Gongliang had not yet grown up, so he could be called pretty."

It was when Yan Jinyun just crossed over, dragged a body that had just recovered from a serious injury, and hadn't trained himself into a muscular man. At that time, Patriarch Xia knew Yan Jinyun, and thought he was very handsome, and he was indeed a bit of a beautiful boy. the meaning of.However, Yan Jinyun soon "grew up", getting farther and farther away from the persona of a fair, sick and beautiful boy.

Patriarch Xia also knew that these words could have a different meaning if they fell into the coolie's ears. The word "Qingxiu" has not been weakened at this time, and it means beautiful, fresh and delicate.I think that Mr. Gongliang already had beautiful features before he bloomed, but now that Mr. Gongliang has fully bloomed, he really looks like a fairy, right?

An expression of yearning immediately appeared on the coolie's face.

Patriarch Xia coughed twice with a guilty conscience.

Needless to say, when this coolie brother finishes his trip, he will definitely tell others when he goes back that someday he brought a few guests and sent them directly to Mr. Sun's house, and they turned out to be Mr. Sun's relatives .These guests have met Mr. Gongliang before, and they said that Mr. Gongliang has beautiful features before the blooming, and he will be fine after the blooming...

In this way, even though he was full of vicissitudes, Patriarch Xia couldn't help but contribute to the legend of the number one beauty.

Cough, I suddenly feel a little proud!

At the same time as Sun Erxiumu, when he learned that his relatives were coming, he ran to the door to greet him.It is a good reunion between relatives.Sun Tieli couldn't help asking: "We've heard a lot of gossip along the way...why do they say your master is a beauty?"

Sun Er said indignantly: "Every time I say this, I will get angry. They are jealous of my master. I don't believe that my master has such good cooking skills at a young age, and they insist on using his appearance to discredit him! Heh, let's see who dares to be a chef!" Say this to my face!"

Patriarch Xia: "???"

Sun Tieli laughed: "I really thought that the capital's water and soil support people, so your master is getting more and more beautiful."

"Impossible! What my master was like back then is what he is now." Sun Er said firmly.

Sun Tieli asked again why the matchmaker in the capital dared not tell Yan Jinyun about the marriage.Sun Er was even more angry: "Well, I don't know very well. But it seems that a princess wanted to recruit my master to be her son-in-law, but someone spread rumors, and they just mixed it up. They must be jealous of my master! If it weren't for them, my master would be a son-in-law!"

Patriarch Xia: "???"

For the down-to-earth Sun family, it must be a good thing to be a son-in-law.The princess is a golden branch and a jade leaf, and the son-in-law is a relative of the emperor.The Sun family sighed.Only Sun Da, who had worked as a waiter in a restaurant, faintly felt that something was wrong.

Patriarch Xia did not disturb the reunion of the Sun family. The reason why he followed all the way to Sun Er's mansion was to escort the Sun family on the surface, but in fact he still wanted to meet Sun Er.Seeing that Sun Er was still as innocent as he remembered, and he hadn't been dropped, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.Patriarch Xia has already planned to buy real estate in the capital, so naturally he won't live in the Sun family for a long time.However, before he could settle down completely with his servants, Sun Er sent a message to take him to see Yan Jinyun.

On the way to Huangzhuang, Patriarch Xia's mood was extremely complicated, both uneasy and inexplicably full of expectations.

When he got out of the carriage and saw Yan Jinyun with his own eyes, it was still the same as in his memory.Although Patriarch Xia breathed a sigh of relief, what happened to the faint disappointment in his heart? !Does the legendary narcissus beauty really not exist?

Patriarch Xia sighed uncontrollably, and had to be careful not to be heard by Yan Jinyun.

Yan Jinyun greeted Patriarch Xia with a smile, welcomed him to the capital, and introduced Wu Shen to Patriarch Xia.Patriarch Xia couldn't help mentioning the rumors that were spreading wildly outside.Yan Jinyun pretended to shake his head helplessly, as if he couldn't explain it.It's not easy for Patriarch Xia to ask any more questions, as for how he makes up his mind, that's up to him.Anyway, Yan Jinyun didn't care.

"Do you know rice flower fish?" Yan Jinyun asked.

Patriarch Xia said: "Of course I know, this fish is priceless in Jiangnan."

It was obviously an ordinary carp, not a sea fish, so Patriarch Xia managed to buy a few, but the price was dozens of times that of ordinary carp, even more expensive than sea fish.The point is, because there are not many people who raise rice flower fish, even if they have money, they can't buy it.Their backer, Xu's family, has sent news that they will also learn a new farming method to raise rice flower fish next year.

Yan Jinyun pointed to Wu Shen, and said proudly: "He made all these new things. Patriarch Xia, you were kind to me back then, so I might as well tell you the truth. The rice flower fish is just the beginning. There will be more in the future." There are more high-quality ingredients coming out. Ah Shen has directly improved the quality of hundreds of ingredients. The breeding method of rice flower fish is released directly, and the others are not necessarily, they are all in...then In the hands of one." Yan Jinyun cupped his hands towards the imperial city.

"You should know what this means." The old god Yan Jinyun said.

Patriarch Xia's complexion changed.The Xia family originally made high-quality ingredients, but if Wu Shen produced more high-quality ingredients, their "boutique" would not be worthy of the name.That means they get dumped by top cooks.Although the Xia family will not completely lose their business and can focus on the mid-end market, but losing the high-end market will lose many opportunities.

Yan Jinyun said: "If you think highly of me, why don't I point you to another business."

"What business?" Patriarch Xia hurriedly asked.

Yan Jinyun smiled but said nothing, "I have prepared a banquet for Brother Xia, why not talk while eating." He clapped his hands lightly, and two servants came in from outside carrying the stove, and then they Place a small saucepan on the stove.

Patriarch Xia looked intently and saw that the water in the pot had already boiled.I thought there was something strange about the soup, but no matter how I looked at it, no matter how I smelled it, the pot was filled with plain boiled water, nothing else was added.

Yan Jinyun took out an oiled paper bag, opened the oiled paper, and a spicy smell rushed out immediately.Patriarch Xia also knows a thing or two about seasonings, and thinks this thing should be some kind of ointment.I saw Yan Jinyun cut a piece of ointment and put it in the pot.There is a divider in the middle of the small saucepan.Yan Jinyun took out another oiled paper bag, cut a fresh and fragrant one and put it on the other side.

Cooking and cooking, the ointment melted in the water, and the aromas wafted from the pots on both sides.

"This is a spicy pot, which contains several kinds of peppers and Chinese prickly ash. This is a fresh pot, with mushrooms and shrimp powder. This is the simplest method. Let's keep everything simple today." Yan Jinyun used public chopsticks He picked up a slice of thinly sliced ​​mutton, put it in the pot and scalded it for a few seconds, then took it out, then put it in the bowl of Patriarch Xia, and motioned him to have a taste.

Patriarch Xia was full of thoughts about the brand new business that Yan Jinyun was talking about, but because Yan Jinyun was so enthusiastic, he had no choice but to suppress his curiosity and put the mutton into his mouth.Seriously, this food, it tastes good.But the special effects are not so good.Taking a bite of food, Patriarch Xia can only feel a very short-lived pleasure, and it is a very superficial pleasure, without any extension, without any deep-seated longing, and without involving any complicated emotions .

Is this really the work of Mr. Gongliang?

Patriarch Xia was a little skeptical.You can't learn from Mr. Yi for two years, and Mr. Gongliang's cooking skills have regressed, right?

Yan Jinyun invited Patriarch Xia to eat a lot of dishes.This way of eating hot pot already exists at this time.But Yan Jinyun's focus today is not on the hot pot. He smiled and said, "What I want to do is the ointment business. What do you think, Brother Xia?"

"Ordinary people have no place to learn art. Many of them don't even know how to use some complicated seasonings. Naturally, they have no cooking skills at all, only some rough crafts that have been explored in life. However, as long as they have If you have this kind of ointment, you can cook it and eat it like we do today, or cut a little bit and put it in the pot, then add some meat or vegetables and stir-fry it, it tastes good. This is very convenient for them.” The key It is food made with this kind of ointment, and they are also supplemented with emotions. Although the amount is a little small, there is some after all, and it can make people feel happy.

This is a business, but it is also the first step for Yan Jinyun to break through the technological blockade.

If he directly publishes the recipe now, he will become an enemy of chefs all over the world.Looking at the radical reformers in history, even if they did wholeheartedly work for the welfare of the people, they often did not end well.And such reforms are often met with great backlash, and nothing can be done in the end.But Yan Jinyun sells ointment is different. He can completely change the concept and say that it is just a kind of comprehensive seasoning.Salt is a seasoning that can be sold openly.Soy sauce is a condiment that can be sold openly.Then the ointment he made is also a condiment, and of course it can be sold publicly.

Patriarch Xia didn't expect to open the technical blockade to that extent.He thought, those big families who can afford a chef must not look down on this kind of ointment, after all, the food made this way is a little rough, but...

Yan Jinyun laughed again: "We can bring that one in and share some bonuses with him."

Pull the emperor in?Patriarch Xia took a deep breath and did it!

--------

"Could Mr. Gongliang really look like a fairy?" The Xia family who was far away in the county wrote to ask Patriarch Xia.

Patriarch Xia replied, anyway, with me, I feel my conscience and say that Mr. Gongliang is indeed a fairy. (After all, in my place, the God of Wealth that originally existed in the imagination was automatically replaced by the face of Mr. Gongliang.)

The words in parentheses are not enough for outsiders.

The author has something to say: There was a friend from Sichuan (here @李黑子) who taught me a fool’s way of cooking, stir-frying everything with hot pot base. 233
