Xia Houyi's desk is directly facing the main entrance of his study, and the height of the back of the chair for the two of them to sit behind the desk is not much different from the armrests on both sides, and the height of the back is only high. Just a little bit out of the armrest.The chairs behind the desks in the homes of scholars in this place all look like this. The purpose is to urge them to study hard when they are reading, and don’t always lean back, because their backs are not high. As soon as I leaned down, most of my back was empty and there was no real support.

Xia Houyi is not a serious scholar, he is a businessman, but he also spends a lot of time "studying at his desk", so the chair placed in the study is like those scholars, the back is really not high.

This chair is long enough for two people to sit, and there is still some loose space left, but the height of the chair legs is completely designed for a man of Xia Houyi's stature to sit comfortably .Fan Yu sat up, but the soles of his legs still couldn't be completely flat, and he still had to touch the ground with his toes.

Xia Houyi was sitting side by side with this person at this moment, and his upper body was naturally a bit higher than this person. He turned his head, lowered his head, and looked at the person next to him, and saw that he was sitting upright, but his body was too tight. Weakness——a feeling given to him by comparison, with his toes still pointing to the ground, but because he asked him something seriously before, and he said it so solemnly, as if he was going to discuss something important This person's hands are still folded on the desk, but because of this person's stature, he can't easily put it on the edge of the table like him, and he has to stretch his arms to reach it.

No matter how you look at it, it's a bit awkward, like a half-grown person insisting on pretending to be an adult and talking to others about serious things.Xia Houyi didn't even know where he learned his words, movements, and facial expressions, but he really didn't observe him carefully when he was in contact with him in the past.I don't know if these things happened suddenly in the past few days, or if he has them all the time, but I have never observed them intentionally.

Xia Houyi turned his head sideways and lowered his eyes to look at him for a long time, and looked at him so carefully, while Fan Yu was waiting for his answer.But after waiting for a long time, he still didn't answer. He just looked at it like that, didn't understand what's interesting, so he unconsciously stretched out his right hand and rubbed his face a few times, and asked, "Is there something on my face? What's the matter?" At this moment, Xia Houyi realized that he might have looked at people for a long time, so he paused, straightened his back, cleared his throat slightly, and said, "No, it's okay. "

Fan Yu said: "Oh, then are you going there or not?" Xia Houyi said: "Yes, you are going. Are you in a hurry? I was supposed to go next month, and there are still twenty days left." If you want to go earlier, then I will adjust the itinerary earlier, which is not a big deal." Fan Yu said: "Oh, not really, there is no need to be in such a hurry, then follow your original itinerary." After a pause, he asked again: "I'll go with you...is that okay?" Xia Houyi said: "It's okay."

Fan Yu stayed at Xia Houyi's place for dinner that day, and Xia Houyi walked back with him after dinner.I arrived before eight o'clock, when Zu Xin and her mother-in-law hadn't come back yet.Fan Yu walked to the front of the house and saw that all the clothes on the clothesline had been taken away. Zuxin must have come back in the afternoon to collect the dried clothes and go back.

He untied the rope that tied Xiaozheng, and led it back to the kitchen.And Xia Houyi went back after sending the others back, he knew that Fan Yu would not want him to stay for a long time, maybe it was because of that Zu Xin.

The next day, Fan Yu went to the market in the east of the city and asked a craftsman from the blacksmith shop to come to his house to make cupronickel discs and rings according to the size of the inner circumference of the two large vats, to be used as hoops inside. .

As long as there are five layers of cupronickel hollow discs in the big tank used to bake pizza, there is no need for support feet, because the inner circumference of each height in the big tank is different in size. The hollow disc that fits the height of the layer can just be stuck on the inner circumference, and it cannot fall.And if it is hollow, it is because charcoal is added to the center of the cylinder bottom from the hollow center.The ring closest to the cylinder belly is larger than the cylinder mouth, so it can only be formed in two parts, and then placed into the large cylinder for joint.

Fan Yu wants to make pizzas in three sizes: large, medium, and small, but each of his sizes is smaller than the large, medium, and small pizzas in his previous world.The first and third layers from top to bottom in the vat are used to hold medium-sized pizzas, while the bottom two layers are used to bake small pizzas, and the second layer is the only one for baking. Grilled great pizza's.He also asked people to make corresponding large, medium and small round cupronickel trays. At that time, the pizza will be prepared directly in the tray, and then placed on the shelves in the tank.

And the inner wall of the large vat used to make large-scale barbecue does not need to be hooped with a hollow disc, but only needs to be hooped with three rings in three layers, and one ear is added under each ring. Hang the meat skewers one by one on a thin cupronickel rod, and then put the rod on the two ears to hang a whole skewer in the big tank.The tank is divided into three layers. Due to the size of the tank, the uppermost layer can support nine such thin rods. The thickness of each rod is only as thick as three thick iron wires together. There are twenty thin hooks hanging down at even intervals.The sticks for those kebabs are made of bamboo. This batch of work has to be processed by people in the woodworking shop. The bamboo sticks of the same size and length are produced in batches. The head is pointed and the end has a utensil for drilling holes The neat small holes are pierced, as long as the thin hook is hooked, the meat skewers will hang upside down.

The ring on the second layer in the tank is closer to the belly of the tank, so it is larger than the first layer and can hang more, while the bottom layer is smaller than the first layer and can hang less.But overall, this tank is quite large, and about 650 skewers of meat can be smoked and roasted at the same time.The two ears are cast under the hoop of each layer, so the two ears cannot be stretched too wide, and therefore the meat skewers are evenly concentrated on the longitudinal plane of the width in the center of the cylinder, and Charcoal can be added from both sides downwards.Unlike the one that bakes pizza, it is added by the hole in the center of the disc.

Because of the heat circulation in the vat, the top layer is the easiest to cook, the middle one is next, and the bottom one is the second.Therefore, in the large tank dedicated to barbecue, the meat of wild boars, cattle and sheep is hung on the top layer—the meat that is more difficult to cook is placed in the position that is most likely to gather heat and be cooked most easily, and The middle layer hangs some poultry meat such as chickens, ducks, geese, and the bottom layer hangs some seafood skewers such as fish, shrimp, shellfish and squid.But this fish girl city is not on the coast, so Fan Yu couldn't find a good source of seafood for a while, so he decided not to make seafood skewers for the time being, but only to make other two types of meat skewers.

And the two most critical things of that pizza-tomato sauce and mozzarella cheese are both absent.However, Fan Yu discovered early in the morning that the taste of the small purple fruit he used to extract the blue pigment was somewhat similar to the distinctive sourness of tomatoes, but it was slightly sweeter than tomatoes, although not as good as Generally, fruits are sweet, but they are two points sweeter than tomatoes.

In this way, it is only possible to use this kind of fruit sauce called "Dian Sangzi" instead of tomato sauce.So another process was added in his workshop at the foot of the mountain, and all the purchased mulberries had to be peeled.He used to extract the blue pigment, just put the original fruit into alcohol to extract, now he asked the people at the bottom of the mountain to peel off the skins of these fruits, and after the peels were removed, they would be transported up the mountain for him, and he could extract the pigment himself. Now, this is not a heavy job, and the rest of the purple pulp will be left in the house at the foot of the mountain, where the artisans will make the pulp into an easy-to-preserve mulberry sauce as he said.Finished product is medium purple - Inden bilberry flesh is medium purple, not dark purple like their skin.The sauce replaces the tomato sauce to make this kind of pizza really give people a very new look and feel.

Originally, the pizza should have been a relatively dead dough, which was placed in a shallow round tray. Many small but non-leaking holes were poked in the center of the dough with a rolling needle, and then a layer of tomato sauce was spread on top, and then sprinkled with a layer of ketchup. A layer of minced cheese, then sprinkle with vegetables and meat, and after roasting, you can vaguely see the red tomato sauce on the dough below through the vegetables, meat slices, and cheese.But now that this layer of purple sauce is used as the embryo, it gives Fan Yu a particularly novel impression.But for him, he may just see the sauce embryo and find it novel and interesting, but for the people in this place, maybe they will find it novel and interesting when they see a whole pizza, after all, they are the whole thing. Never seen it before.

It is precisely because the mulberry sauce is two points sweeter than tomato sauce, Fan Yu asked people not to add sugar when making the dough, which just reconciled the basic sweet and salty taste of the food as a whole.And it’s better to not add sugar to the dough, which makes it easier for the dough to present a crunchy texture on the edges and the outer layer of the bottom after baking.Crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, served with a distinctive medium-purple berry sauce and roasted cheese, plus those vegetables and meat slices wrapped softly by the hot melted cheese, it's hard not to attract a large number of customers.

This cheese was also a problem at the beginning. This city of fish girls is not a place where nomads live, where there are such rich milk sources and dairy products.Fortunately, Fan Yu found cheese. Although it wasn't the kind of cheese he wanted, he could only use that kind of cheese as a temporary substitute, as long as it could be melted.I found this cheese in a shop that sells seasonings. It is said that people here who have no money to buy supplementary food will put a handful of this in when cooking wheat porridge in order to save money. They say that eating it will also give them strength.

Fan Yu spent nine days getting everything ready.Since then, his family has had basic large-scale grilled pizzas - roast beef pizza, fragrant grilled chicken pizza, fragrant-grilled pastoral pizza, and basic large-scale barbecued meats - beef skewers, lamb skewers, beef offal Skewers, lamb skewers, wild pork skewers, chicken skewers, chicken skewers.Every time the cylinder is finished roasting and the lid is lifted, it is like a person who dies in the street.

In fact, sometimes, the various mixed aromas of this food are second to none, and the natural fresh air similar to "MSG" ingredients emitted by this meat product after cooking is also second. The skill is still second, and the thick layer of fruit wood chips with natural fruit wood aroma on the coconut shell charcoal in the center of the bottom of the big tank really makes everything not only delicious and hot, but also really like It is because they all have a layer of fairy air - an unbelievable food aroma, which doesn't seem to be the food that will appear in this world.

Fruit sawdust smokes and conducts aroma.It bridges the disadvantages and highlights the advantages. How can the food produced by this cooking method be compared with "vulgar things".

Fan Yu's carriage queue almost occupied half of the street.In addition to the previous two large carts that were used to sell croaks and pink wave boards and lollipops, there are now two more carts in the head, which are also all bay red horses and imitation Gold dusted black painted cart.Four vehicles—horse, cart, horse, cart, horse, cart, horse, cart stretched in such a row, and there were so many people in front of the cart, it seemed that the convoy of his family seemed to be driven from the street. It seems to stretch to the end of the street, there is such a visual illusion, it is really "overbearing".

The two newly added ones sell pizza and the other sells barbecue.Fan Yu feels that the food produced by his family is complete on a certain level.For example, there are candy, there is a simple staple food - quack, there is a staple food, pizza with vegetables and meat, and there is simple meat.

His goal is: no matter what time period or type of people he is dealing with, there is always a food in his family that meets the needs, is needed, and can be sold.

This is the way of doing business. It can't be cold, and it can't be cold for a moment. It just needs to be lively and always lively.This is a kind of "feng shui" for doing business. Popularity can promote good feng shui, while desertedness can ruin feng shui.That's why he wants to keep busy, otherwise he won't be in a hurry to add new products. With the two items in his house before, even if the things are small, they can already make him a lot of money, but he can't just sit and wait for that. The popularity of the two products is gradually fading, which is why they rush to add new products to the archives. This is really for the purpose of "not getting colder and colder", and it is not the first consideration of making money.

From the day when the two big vats in his house were put on the table, three layers of people surrounded the long stall, and the diners stood shoulder to shoulder, squeezing each other.He can produce two whole tanks every two quarters of an hour, and sell fresh tanks as soon as they come up.

This kind of selling speed is the best.For Fan Yu, it is actually an insult if a visitor says something like "Please pick me the fresh ones and don't give me the old ones" to the people in his stall.He won't let visitors have a chance to say such things, because there won't be anything on his store that can't be sold after being put out.
