"Hey! No! The mountain leader seems to have said that no one else is allowed to help!"
Downstairs in the dormitory of Yanhuang Academy, Li Tai finally regained his composure after resting for so long, but he suddenly remembered something and his expression changed instantly.
"Uh~!"
Sun Zifan, who was originally full of joy, suddenly became stagnant. He scratched his head depressedly. Did he dare to think that all his hard work this morning was in vain? Will I have to wash Li Tai's smelly feet and clothes in the future? Not willing to give in! Not willing to give in!
"No, Qingque, if you think about it carefully, what did the mountain chief say at that time? Did he not let everyone help, or did he not let the servants in your palace help?"
Sun Zifan scratched his head and thought for a long time, then turned to Li Tai and asked reluctantly.
Li Tai, who was originally dejected, suddenly lit up after hearing Sun Zifan's words. He patted his head and thought about it seriously. After a moment, he suddenly shouted excitedly:
"I remembered! What the mountain chief told me before was that I was not allowed to hire people or let servants help me. Zifan, you are neither hired by me nor a servant of my palace. It stands to reason that you It’s okay~! Haha!”
At the end of the sentence, you couldn't help but laugh. After all, in his heart, he hoped that Sun Zifan could help him carry water.
"That's great~! Since it can be done, let's start choosing now~!"
This agreement is a win-win agreement for the two of them, so Sun Tzu Fan is eager to facilitate it.
"Hey! Zifan, you go ahead. I'll rest here for a while. Anyway, I only have two barrels left, and you still have ten barrels!"
Li Tai shook his head and sighed.
When Sun Zifan heard this, he felt a little uncomfortable, but in order not to wash smelly socks in the future, he would suffer a little loss, "Okay~! Then Qingque, you can rest first, I will go to the dormitory steward to get a bucket. !”
"Hehe, let's go, let's go~!"
Li Tai smiled and waved his hand.
Sun Zifan turned around and left without saying anything more. Li Tai leaned against the wall and looked at his back. He suddenly felt something was wrong in his heart. He heard him murmur to himself:
"Damn! If we take this seriously, Sun Zifan and I both suffered a loss! Not only did we get nothing, but each of us had to carry ten buckets of water. After all, only Xiaoxuan made the profit! Eh, This king is really fucked! Sun Zifan and I have been tossing and tossing for so long, and it’s just a fool’s errand, and in the end we all got the advantage of the academy~!”
When things came to this point, the little fat man finally came to his senses. After a long time, neither he nor Sun Zifan took advantage. They were all tricked by Li Zexuan!
But now that the matter has come to this, what else can he say? You can only suffer from this dumb thing!
"Alas, it turns out that Xiaoxuan is a scammer! You must never trust him again in the future!"
Li Tai silently labeled Li Zexuan as a scammer.
… … … … …
It's almost noon, the east and west cities of Chang'an City have officially opened their doors. Shops, restaurants, and teahouses have opened their doors to welcome customers. Zuixian Tower has also opened its doors at this moment!
"Hey~! Boss Feng, long time no see! I heard that you were named a righteous merchant by His Majesty, I'm so happy and congratulations~!"
Shopkeeper Liu smiled like a Maitreya Buddha and said to Feng Zhihua who came in from outside.
After nearly five months, Feng Zhihua came to Zuixianlou again. He used to be a regular customer here, and he would come here for a meal every now and then. The main reason was that he was delayed for too long while going to sea this time.
"Shopkeeper Liu, long time no see! This trip to sea is all thanks to Marquis Yong'an! Otherwise, Mr. Feng would not have received such huge profits and the title of righteous merchant personally granted by His Majesty!"
Feng Zhihua didn't make excuses, he smiled and held his hands in front of him.
Although he lost a group of crew members when he went to sea this time, even excluding the pensions for the families of the deceased crew members, he still made at least 100,000 yuan. It can be said to be a huge profit! Of course, for Feng Zhihua, the most valuable thing is the title of righteous businessman conferred by Li Er. This is an unexpected surprise and is worth a thousand dollars!
Therefore, he was grateful to Li Zexuan, the facilitator of the southward trade.
"Hey, Shopkeeper Liu, you have something new here today!"
Feng Zhihua was followed by Liao Xifan and Zhang Jingyang. Liao Xifan looked at the food sign of Quge and found that there were several new dishes in it, so he was surprised.
"Cold preserved eggs, preserved egg tofu, preserved egg and lean meat porridge, they are so popular, these are really new tricks! I really haven't tried them before! Okay, I'll help shopkeeper Liu to make some of these new dishes today!"
Feng Zhihua heard the sound, looked up, and then smiled.
"Haha! No problem! Boss Feng, please go and sit down first! The food is ready!"
Shopkeeper Liu said with a smile.
After a while, the food for Feng Zhihua and others was put on the table, "Sir, here are the three portions of preserved egg and lean meat porridge you ordered, one portion of cold preserved egg, one portion of preserved egg tofu, one portion of nibbling chicken, and one portion of braised chicken. Meat! If any of the guest officers give you any further orders, just call me the younger one!"
The waiter said enthusiastically while serving food to Feng Zhihua and others.
Feng Zhihua nodded, and the waiter stepped back knowingly, "Come on, Brother Liao, Brother Zhang, let's try the new dishes from Zuixianlou!"
Liao Xifan smiled and said: "I have eaten this kind of thing before, but I have never heard of this preserved egg and lean meat porridge, cold preserved egg and so on. Come today, let's try it and find out what kind of egg this preserved egg is!"
Everyone laughed kindly, and Feng Zhihua used a small spoon to scoop out a spoonful of preserved egg tofu first, because this thing looked cooler. The white tofu was dotted with some black and cyan, which was quite pleasing to the eye.
"Hmm~! It's fresh, tender, fragrant, and cool! This preserved egg tofu is really amazing! It's a must-have side dish in summer!"
A small spoonful of preserved egg tofu entered Feng Zhihua's mouth. First, a coolness filled his mouth, and then the freshness of the tofu, mixed with the aroma of preserved eggs, made Feng Zhihua full of praise!
"Hmm~! Brother Feng, this preserved egg and lean meat porridge is also very delicious, but I have never thought that porridge can be made in such a way! Zuixianlou is really Zuixianlou, and it will always take up the food in Chang'an City The most delicious! Haha!”
Liao Xixifan carefully tasted two mouthfuls of preserved egg and lean meat porridge, and then praised it.
"Haha! Brother Liao is right. I am obsessed with food these days and it never disappoints! In my opinion, this cold preserved egg is the most delicious!"
Zhang Jingyang has a strong taste and has a special liking for cold preserved eggs.
At this time, other diners also came over to eat, and they also discovered the new dishes from Zuixianlou. When they heard the praises of old diners Feng Zhihua and Liao Xifan, they were instantly moved, and this time Quge’s The new dishes are very "cheap", the preserved egg and lean meat porridge only costs 20, the cold preserved egg 80, and the preserved egg tofu only 100. Compared with the previous chicken and braised pork, it is not too cheap at all.
“Waiter, let’s have a piece of braised pork and a piece of preserved egg and tofu!”
"Waiter, give me two bowls of preserved egg and lean meat porridge!"
"Bring me two cold preserved eggs!"
