After smelling the fragrance, people who should go out still went out. Only the poor children who had no way to find another food went to the cafeteria one after another, enduring the torture of eating twice a day.
It’s not enough if you don’t eat this meal, you will starve to death if you don’t eat, and you won’t have the energy to study. Only those who can put up a face to make friends with the children of those aristocratic families can eat something good by them, and the honest ones can only make do with it. Not all of them looked down on the "traitors" who made friends with the children of the aristocratic family, they just felt that they didn't have the face to eat others every day!
Everyone complained a few words in their hearts to those guys who used fragrance to lure others, but they were stunned when they walked into the place where they took food.
The original dilapidated dining hall was neatly tidied up, and there were many long tables that were polished inside and out. Many people still feel that they have gone to the wrong place. When they go in and ask, they realize that this is a new trick in the cafeteria. They are asked to try new dishes made by the chef in Fengtai Building every day, and judge the best one every day, and continue to eat. After a hundred days of evaluation, it is said that the best "hundred dishes" will be selected.
Today is in time, so I can only do what I have, and everyone can eat whatever they want!
Smell it again, isn't the alluring aroma just now coming from the food inside? This is also delicious! Why is Fengtai Building so good? Just for this meal, there are two kinds of meat and two vegetables, which match very well! Fortunately, the new year has just passed, even the children of poor families have been exposed to meat during the New Year, so there will not be any big disturbances, and they all lined up in a neat line and waited for the food.
The cafeteria said that because the ingredients should be prepared according to the number of people, all good things should be used, and there should be no extravagance and waste, so everyone has to tick off the roster after picking up the food, and everyone will be arranged in the corresponding queue according to the strokes of the last name. Then do it according to the number of ticks on the roster. Those who can "rely on their own feet" don't care about food. Anyway, their families have money, and they can eat whatever they like—if they also want to come here to eat, they have two choices, either eat the original stuff, or spend it on their own Money, anyway, will not be provided for free here.
Hearing that they will be able to eat this kind of good food with meat and vegetables in the future, the superintendents are very happy. How could they dislike the trouble of queuing and voting, and happily took their own portions and finished eating.
There was a supervisor who was born with a big stomach, and he couldn't get enough to eat with one serving, so he asked someone to make him an extra meal, even if the dishes were less. The young man in charge of recording at the front of his team smiled at him kindly, asked someone to put a tick on the roster, and gave him two meals.
The supervisor with a big stomach was often stared at because he could eat, and suddenly he received such preferential treatment, and he was very moved to chat with the boy: "I think you can also read, why didn't you study hard, and came to work as a helper in the kitchen? "
The young man is about eleven or twelve years old, but he has already done things very safely. He calmly replied: "Our Highness asked us to read and read, so that we can be useful to the country and the people. Now Your Highness has asked us to take care of two thousand prison students. The meals are not only an eye-opener for us to come to the Imperial College, but also let us exercise our ability to deal with problems. It is because I did not learn well that I only had to organize the roster. If I learned better, I had to calculate the cost and coordinate the manpower of all parties , that’s called testing people.”
This answer was not only heard by the supervisor with a big stomach, but also those around the queue, and they all started talking to the young man who was in charge of ticking off the roster.
These teenagers told them their backgrounds, saying that they were helpless beggars two years ago, thanks to His Highness King Teng who took them in, and asked His Highness the Crown Prince to find a good wife for them! The master who taught them was recommended by Kong Yingda Kong Jijiu, so when they heard that they were going to be in charge of the Guozijian's meals, they all took the initiative to ask for help.
Don't look at the dirty and tiring of the kitchen, these jobs are very popular among their group, and those who are not as good as them didn't even get the ticked jobs!
These teenagers spoke confidently and proudly. They were not at all cowardly because they had been trapped outside or homeless.
The words of the teenagers quickly spread among the supervisors, and everyone knew that the Guozijian would suddenly improve their meals. It turned out that Li Yuanying came to the Imperial College and found that the food in the Imperial College was hard to swallow, so he specially sent a letter to His Royal Highness to unite with His Royal Highness to improve the eating and drinking problems of the Imperial College with his own money!
Even if it's nothing else, just to make Li Yuanying eat well, the so-called "Fengtailou owner" will give them delicious food in different ways! It just so happens that people pay out of their own pockets, so you can't say that they are bad!
The hand that grabs people is soft, and the mouth that eats people is soft. After the meal, although everyone still couldn't bear to talk to Li Yuanying, the wind direction of the conversation had changed. Some people remembered that Li Yuanying had built a library, and even mentioned it, saying that it was a good job. place.
You must know that not everyone is as lucky as them. They can be admitted to the Imperial College and read all the books in the Imperial College. For those who cannot enter the Imperial College, it is a priceless treasure!
Discussing and discussing, everyone felt that Li Yuanying was different from those playboys. Those playboys don't eat it if they don't like it, and ask their family to send them good things every day to make them greedy, and they have to curry favor with them in order to share a bite. Li Yuanying was different, he thought it was not tasty, so he gathered with His Royal Highness to improve the food of the entire Imperial College!
A lot of people figured it out, even if those spectators and foreign students who came to study would not usually go to the cafeteria to eat, and the children of the aristocratic families and the dog legs they bought would not eat with them, they would still have nearly two thousand people! How much does it cost? You are indeed the little prince who set up a free and open library in Chang'an, a place where every inch of land is very expensive!
Many people thought that Li Yuanying would die if he went on like this. They were happy to eat well, but they couldn't pick up the bowl to eat and put down the bowl to scold their mothers and be like wolf-eyed wolves.
Li Yuanying was young and came from a wealthy family, so he had no concept of spending money, thinking that it would be a simple matter to make everyone eat and drink well, and it would not cost much. But, can two thousand mouths be a small amount of money
After everyone discussed, they pushed several representatives to find Li Yuanying, and discussed with Li Yuanying the big issue of eating.
Li Yuanying had a very happy dinner, with both meat and vegetables, and his favorite stewed tender chicken with taro, which was very fragrant and really satisfied him. Seeing that other people were also enjoying the meal, he felt it was great, so he decided to write a letter to his mother, saying that everyone liked the stewed tender chicken with taro on her recipe, sister Shu and the others were full of praise. Li Yuanying also said that the teachers are very good, Dr. Ma is funny, Assistant Teacher Jia is knowledgeable, and the lectures are lively and interesting, and he likes to listen very much.
Li Yuanying was sitting on the bed he personally made and was writing letters, when the representatives of the supervisors came to find him. Seeing him writing a letter there, I greeted him first and asked him what he was writing.
Li Yuanying doesn't know what these people are looking for him for, but he likes to make friends. Seeing that they don't seem to be looking for trouble, he led them to sit on the empty bunk beside him, saying that he was writing a letter to his mother, and told her Talk about interesting things you met in the Imperial College.
Everyone felt that Li Yuanying was a filial child, so they no longer hesitated, and told Li Yuanying their concerns: Simply put, they were worried that Li Yuanying would be left poor.
Li Yuanying said: "Don't be afraid, I have left me a lot of money and a few Zhuangzi, and these Zhuangzi have a lot of output every year. I can't spend much money in the palace, how can I be poor! Put the money away What's the use of it, it can't make money by itself, so it's better to eat something good." He enthusiastically shared his thoughts with the supervisors, "I have long wanted to taste delicious food from all over the world. It is inconvenient to contact people outside, and now is a good opportunity to try something new."
At first, the supervisors were worried that Li Yuanying was too naive to know how much it would cost, but after hearing what Li Yuanying said, they realized that the little prince was a cub who didn't feel bad about selling his land, and only spent it freely because of the amount of money the emperor left him.
Everyone tried to persuade Li Yuanying to think about it again. In fact, one meat and one vegetable is enough, there is no need to have so many meat and two vegetables.
Li Yuanying resolutely refused to agree, and Li Yuanying would never give in easily in terms of making things happen. The plans were all made, so how could they just change it! Changing orders day and night, without dignity, no one will listen to him in the future!
After the supervisors had no choice but to disperse, Li Yuanying murmured to Tang Sui: "How can one meat and one vegetable be enough to eat?"
Tang Sui said: "It is difficult for ordinary people to open meat a few times a month, and one meat and one vegetarian every day is already a fairy day."
Li Yuanying really didn't have much dinner at ordinary people's house, even at Wei Zheng's, he also went to join in the fun occasionally, so it was not a serious meal. Hearing what Tang Sui said, Li Yuanying asked many things again, and then he realized why the other supervisors could tolerate the meals of the Guozijian, because such meals were very normal for them, and they grew up from snacks to adulthood!
Li Yuanying suddenly said: "So that's how it is."
Tang Sui asked another question: "You serve meat dishes to the inmates every day. After a long time, the price of meat in Chang'an may even go up."
Li Yuanying sat cross-legged and settled accounts for Tang Su: "Don't be afraid, the price of meat has risen, and more people are willing to raise livestock and poultry. Who is not tempted to make money? Even if people who raise chickens and ducks are reluctant to eat chicken, they can always eat chicken." Eat an egg; people who raise pigs and sheep can taste some meat even if they are reluctant to eat good meat. In general, there are still many people who can eat meat! So I am not afraid of the high price of meat, but I am afraid that no one will raise it if it is cheap It doesn't matter if you don't know how to raise them, I will ask people to teach them how to raise them from house to house!"
Tang Xuan felt that it made sense.
The two were talking excitedly, but they didn't notice that many people had gathered around them, and they were all sitting around listening to them. After Li Yuanying said "Ask someone to teach you from house to house", which sounded loud, and Tang Sui didn't answer, the others couldn't help asking questions: "Do you still raise chickens, ducks, pigs and sheep?"
Li Yuanying didn't care whether he knew him or not, he would be very excited when someone talked to him, and replied naturally: "I don't know."
Everyone said: "Then why do you teach from house to house?"
Li Yuanying then told everyone that he and His Majesty Li Er were begging for the Xiangcheng Palace. Xiangcheng Palace will raise some chickens, ducks, geese, cattle, sheep and pigs in the spring, and try all kinds of raising methods to see. How to raise all kinds of birds and beasts to be the fattest and tastiest. Anyway, he has paid a lot of money to recruit a lot of breeding experts, and he will let them try boldly when the weather is warmer.
After the trial is completed, he will be able to teach people to raise them from house to house!
Li Yuanying also told them about his own experience. For example, throwing money at people to brainstorm ideas would definitely work. For example, one of his staff named Deng Qing found out a cheap and easy-to-use new paper for him. Before long, they will be able to see new books printed on this new paper!
After hearing Li Yuanying's words, the others had only one thought in their minds: How much money did the Supreme Emperor leave for Li Yuanying? !
When Tang Guan came back, he found that Li Yuanying was gathering people for a night chat in the dormitory. Many humble scholars who usually claimed to be noble were sitting and chatting with Li Yuanying. The usually deserted school was very lively.
Tang Guan burned the charcoal he brought back in silence, and poured cold water on his face sullenly: "You don't need to sleep, others have to sleep, don't make everyone suffer punishment with you." When he was talking, his eyes fell on Li Yuanying and Tang Xuan, Obviously it was aimed at them.
It was the first time for Li Yuanying to sleep with so many people. Hearing what Tang Guan said, he felt that it was not good to quarrel with others. He took off his outer robe and got into the warm blanket, but his mind was still very excited, and he couldn't fall asleep. He turned to look at Tang Xuan, but Tang Zhen was not asleep either. He lowered his voice and whispered to Tang Sui: "Is this Tang Guan usually so fierce?"
Before Tang Sui could say anything, Tang Guan's angry voice came from the side: "Talking about people behind their backs is not for a gentleman!"
Li Yuanying turned his head and looked, oh, Tang Guan's bed is actually on his left! Li Yuanying turned over, faced Tang Guan straight, and asked very gentlemanly: "Are you usually this fierce?"
Tang Guan: "..."
The author has something to say:
Little Prince: Am I a gentleman like this!
Tang Xiaoguan: Get out! go away!
