Farming and teaching across different worlds

Come here, the attendance rate is quite high, the seats in the lobby are already full at this time, you must know that it is not the regular meal time.

After looking at the general situation and having a good idea, he looked at the waiter in front of him: "Is there no box?"

Xiaoer bowed and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, sir, the box must be fully booked and there is no free time."

Ji Xiuran asked with surprise: "The business is so good?"

Xiao Er replied quite proudly: "I don't know that only our family can make the most authentic spicy pot in Yunzhou City, so the business is better than other places."

Hearing this, Ji Xiuran smiled, and said, "Oh, then we're going to try this spicy hot pot from Manyunzhou, Xiao Er will lead the way."

After going up to the elegant seat on the second floor and sitting down, after ordering, Ji Xiuran looked at Xiao Er again: "Please ask Xiao Er to find your shopkeeper."

Xiao Er's face changed when he heard this, "I don't know what the guest officer asked my shopkeeper to say, you might as well talk to Xiao Er first, so that Xiao Er can tell the story on your behalf."

Ji Xiuran waved his hand nonchalantly: "You found it yourself, just say it's Mr. Ji's visit."

Xiaoer walked away suspiciously, and after a while, he saw Xigui approaching, and when he saw Ji Xiuran, he saluted and said hello: "I didn't know that Mr. was coming, so I was far away to welcome you, please forgive me."

Ji Xiuran nonchalantly motioned him to excuse him: "Find a convenient place to talk."

Xigui bent over, turned sideways, and stretched out his hand in a gesture of invitation: "Mister, please follow me this way."

Every Piaoxiang Building has a box reserved for the boss to entertain guests. Even if Zeng Junhui, the real boss, doesn't come, Ji Xiuran is still qualified to use it, so Xigui took them to the boss's special box.Ji Xiuran led Shi Jingchen and Jiabao and walked behind Xigui.

In the private room, Shi Jingchen took Jiabao and sat beside him, eating the special snacks in the building, drinking tea, and not disturbing Ji Xiuran to deal with matters.

Ji Xiuran sat down and looked at Xigui who was standing there: "I didn't expect Brother Zeng to send you to Yunzhou."

Xigui made a salute, and replied: "Master said that the younger one had done something for Mr. Ji before, and it was convenient to get acquainted with him, so he sent the younger one to Yunzhou."

Ji Xiuran nodded, this is true, the people around Zeng Junhui are Xigui and Xifu, he is more familiar with it, and it is really not as convenient for other people to come here, he agrees in his heart, his face is warm, and he takes a sip of tea leisurely, leisurely He casually asked, "How long have you been here? Has the business started?"

Xigui replied respectfully: "The little one arrived a month ago, and the business has already started."

Ji Xiuran nodded knowingly, and when the transfer order came down, Zeng Junhui made the arrangements, and one month was indeed enough to get started.Ji Xiuran casually picked up the tea with the tea bowl lid, and said, "Sit down, and tell me about the general situation."

Xigui thanked him and sat down, and explained to Ji Xiuran the situation of several businesses in Yunzhou. Ji Xiuran listened and thought about it.After Xigui finished speaking, he also thought about the same thing, so he said: "You did a good job, let's do this first, I will send some new recipes over later, I also have new recipes at Zhenxie Pavilion, let's go together Here, you look at the development and send a letter to Jingli by the way."

Yunzhou is close to the sea, and the best ingredients are of course all kinds of seafood, so he wants to develop several new dishes according to the characteristics of Yunzhou, and at the same time develop a new series of snacks.Seafood hot pot, sashimi are all available, squid shreds, kelp knots, grilled seaweed are also delicious.Whether it is for one's own taste or for making money, these things must be developed.

Moreover, he can also get some dried fish, dried shrimp, and dried shellfish, which can be transported to the mainland for sale, so as to increase the income of fishermen here, which is also one of his political achievements, killing two birds with one stone.

After eating, the family returned home, and Ji Xiuran and Shi Jingchen were in the yard, accompanying Jiabao for today's training.Although Jia Bao usually escaped, but during training, he was always serious and serious, with a small face, looking quite like Shi Jingchen.Ji Xiuran sat on the stone bench next to him, organized the recipes on the stone table, and watched the father and son training.

After sorting out a copy, I sent a copy to the kitchen, let the kitchen try it out, and the finished product will be delivered soon.It just so happened that Jia Bao's training had also come to an end, so Ji Xiuran put away his pen and ink, and waved to Jia Bao: "Come here quickly, and try the food that Daddy has come up with."

Jia Bao looked at Shi Jingchen, and after seeing his father nodding, he happily ran to Ji Xiuran.

Ji Xiuran took the cloth towel handed over by You Lu, wiped Jiabao's hands and face, and then let him eat. He stood up, walked to Shi Jingchen's side, and handed over the cloth towel in his hand. Shi Jingchen didn't pick it up, and then He leaned forward a little, motioning him to wipe himself, Ji Xiuran gave him a sideways glance, Shi Jingchen looked at him with a smile, Ji Xiuran couldn't bear to refuse, picked up a cloth towel and wiped his face.

Shi Jingchen accepted Ji Xiuran's service contentedly, and sighed and whispered in Ji Xiuran's ear: "Xiuran is still the most caring."

Ji Xiuran was a little embarrassed by what he said, so he glared at him and said, "In the courtyard, restrain yourself, or you'll sleep in the study at night."

After hearing this, Shi Jingchen stopped teasing him, quickly stood up straight, walked to the stone table pretending nothing happened, and asked Jiabao who was eating happily: "How are these meals?"

Jia Bao nodded happily, looked at him with bright eyes and said, "Father, these are delicious, you should try them too." After speaking, he used his little oily hands to pick up a piece of crisp fish bone and handed it over to Shi Jingchen. He took it without disdain, put it in his mouth, tasted it, and nodded in appreciation.

Turning around to look at Ji Xiuran who was walking over, he asked, "Has Xiuran thought about doing business with Jinghaiwei?"

Ji Xiuran shook his head rather nonchalantly: "How much does Jinghaiwei have to spend? Doing business with them is half-selling and half-gifting. It doesn't make any money at all. It's okay to give them some for teeth-beating sacrifices. It's better to do business without it."

Shi Jingchen knew that what Ji Xiuran said was the truth, so he didn't say anything more. Instead, Ji Xiuran took the initiative to say: "When the third brother goes back this time, I will ask someone to prepare some. Then the third brother can give some to his colleagues to taste. After a while, when Zhenxiu Pavilion’s new products come out, I’ll have someone send a batch over there, counting it as a labor force.”

Shi Jingchen held his hand, and said gratefully: "Xiu Ran doesn't have to be like this, it doesn't matter much to me whether I send him off or not."

Ji Xiuran disapproved and retorted: "As the saying goes, eating people has short mouths and short hands. If they eat what we send, they will always be embarrassed to make things difficult for you. It will be more convenient to do things in the army in the future."

Shi Jingchen took him into his arms, sighed secretly, and said, "Even if I don't see him off, no one will make it hard for me."

Ji Xiuran put his head on his shoulder, and said in disbelief: "I know Third Brother is powerful, so it won't hurt to give it away, anyway, there's nothing to lose."

Shi Jingchen patted him on the back and comforted him: "Third Brother understands, Xiu Ran can do whatever he wants, Third Brother just doesn't want you to work too hard."

Only then did Ji Xiuran become happy, put his arms around Shi Jingchen's waist, and said: "That's right, it's right to worry about the third brother's affairs, I know it well, I won't let myself be overworked."

At this time, Jia Bao saw the two fathers getting together again to chat, stopped eating, threw himself on Ji Xiuran, and shouted dissatisfied: "You keep telling secrets, don't take me."

Ji Xiuran saw Jiabao grabbing his body with two hands, and two bright small oily handprints came out, and annoyed, he scolded: "Ji Jiabao, look at the good deeds you have done, you have stained my clothes."

After speaking, he raised his hand and pushed Jiabao away. How could Jiabao give up, struggling to move forward, and said while moving, "If you don't take me with you, I will stain your clothes."

Ji Xiuran held Jiabao away with one hand in disgust, "Why are you so bad, why don't you mess with your father's clothes, are you jealous that your father looks better than you when you grow up, and that your father's clothes are more beautiful than yours?" nice."

Jiabao couldn't get close no matter what, and yelled angrily, "No, you framed me."

Ji Xiuran raised his eyebrows with great interest: "Not bad, I know about framing. It seems that I have learned a lot in the past few days."

Shi Jingchen stepped forward, separated the father and son, and looked at Ji Xiuran helplessly: "Stop bullying Jiabao, go and change clothes."

Ji Xiuran resentfully stopped fighting with Jiabao, and hurried into the room to change clothes.

Shi Jingchen took Jiabao to wash his hands and educated him by the way.

Chapter 115

Ji Xiuran got up early the next day to send Shi Jingchen away, prepared a lot of food for him, and after he came back, he arranged Jiabao before going to the Yamen, and today he had to go to the salt field to check the situation.

Daxia is still implementing salt and iron monopoly, so the salt field is governed by the government, owned by the people, collected by the government, and sold by the government.

However, the government provides venues and tools for unified management.

From Ji Xiuran's point of view, this is very unreasonable. Looking at the development of Daxia's politics, military, economy, and culture, he often feels that it is against harmony.For example, the imperial examination system is well developed, and it looks like the Song Dynasty in the time and space he came from, but the military is as backward as the Han Dynasty.

For example, the monopoly system of salt and iron is a manifestation, like a lame behemoth, although it has been running forward, but because of its physical defects, it has been unable to run fast.

Ji Xiuran didn't want to investigate the cause of this phenomenon, what he needs to do now is to heal the lame leg, even if he can't achieve recovery, at least he can't hold back.

So he is going to inspect the current saltworks to see if there are any defects in operation.

The salt field still uses the method of boiling salt. When Ji Xiuran brought people there, he saw that the salt cooks were all covered in tears.
