Return to 1983 and be a detective

On the tenth day of the first lunar month, Xiang Jinsong and Zhou Yuzhu’s wedding.

Xu Shan, who is both his mother's family and his husband's family, is as busy as a little bee.

Old He, the uncle, naturally had to keep busy too.

Although Xiang Jinsong repeatedly said that it only needs to be done in a simple way, there is no simple way to do this.

Xu Shan felt that although people could be invited less, the money should not be spent less.

After all, Xiang Jinsong can be considered a rich man now. The big boss of Lingling Loves Antenna will soon be worth millions.

If Xu Shan hadn't come out of nowhere and laid out so many industries, it is estimated that the richest man in Longshui would have fallen to Xiang Jinsong.

In fact, to put it bluntly, Xu Shan just stole Xiang Jinsong's opportunity. Even if Xu Shan was not there, this Lingling love antenna would still fall on Xiang Jinsong's head, and Xu Shan would get a share of the pie.

Therefore, Xu Shan felt that he should spend this money.

And it's not that he underestimated Xiang Jinsong, he was the second richest man in Longshui. Although his family background was always good, did he understand what spending money meant?

It’s not that Xu Shan thinks too highly of himself. Because of the limitations of the times, people in the past and people today have very different concepts.

Many people think it would be great to go back in time and become an emperor.

But in reality, if nothing else, even the emperor can only suffer from the cold in winter and needs women to warm his bed.After all, how does ancient heating compare with later generations?

Another example is ancient food. It is said that even the last emperor Puyi did not want to eat the imperial meal in the palace. Instead, he went to other princes' homes to eat in small stoves. It can be seen that the imperial meal was nothing more than that.The food of ordinary people's homes is even less popular.

This is also the reason why those people from the Paradise Sect are so admiring of foreign countries, because without boasting, there are indeed many places in foreign countries that are better than domestic ones in this era, especially the Ami on the other side of the ocean, which happens to be in the golden age. The best of times.

Regardless of science and technology, military, or culture, they are all eras that stand on the top of mountains. Comparing the current country, which has been frozen and chaotic for ten years and is full of waste, with that golden age, is equivalent to comparing the lives of later generations with those of ancient times. , even the life of an otaku like Xu Shan would not be changed by an emperor.

So Xu Shan told Xiang Jinsong in advance that for this wedding, he, the groom, only needed to provide help, and Xu Shan would take care of everything else.

The chef of the Longshui State-owned Hotel is Huang Shuibao. He was an apprentice in the Fengze Garden of the Imperial Capital before liberation. He is very good at cooking Shandong cuisine, especially sea cucumbers cooked with green onions, which is even more impressive.Later he went to Quancheng, the capital of Shandong Province, and learned a nine-turn large intestine dish.As for other Shandong cuisine, there is almost nothing he is not good at.

It's a pity that the level of Longshui County is not high enough. There are very few knowledgeable diners in state-owned restaurants, and no one has ever ordered such famous dishes as sea cucumbers roasted with green onions and nine-turn large intestine.

It’s not that they don’t like to eat it, it’s that they simply can’t order dishes that are beyond their knowledge. People in this era have never even heard of sea cucumbers roasted with green onions.

But today, Huang Shuibao arrived at the store at three o'clock in the morning. He still prepared the dishes himself, soaked the sea cucumbers, and cleaned the large intestines. Several apprentices around him were also brought over from home by the master to observe and learn.

They all had red eyes and were very sleepy, but they didn't even dare to blink, because this kind of learning opportunity was too rare. God knows if they missed this time, they would have another chance to learn in the future.The Nine-turn Large Intestine is okay. The Braised Sea Cucumber with Green Onions has only been mentioned by Master when he was bragging about it, but I have never seen it before, let alone watched Master make it.

As for the Kongfu carp and other dishes, although they watched the master cook them, they only watched the master practice because none of the guests knew how to order.

But today was different. The banquet ordered by Xu Shan was still the same, and all the famous Shandong dishes that their master had recommended were ordered.

The disciples did some calculations and secretly exclaimed, "Good guy."

Just counting the ingredients for these dishes, one table would cost thousands. These days, the ingredients for one thousand tables are quite astonishing.Even in later generations, those dishes that often cost tens of thousands per table, in fact, the price of the ingredients is not that high. In most cases, restaurants make tens of thousands in tears.

But for such a banquet, four whole tables were booked. What a shame.

Some disciples couldn't help but secretly wonder what kind of family it was that could afford such a banquet.

From early morning to early morning, the master and his apprentice finally prepared all the dishes, and then started cooking. Many of the dishes took a long time and were more troublesome to prepare, and it was another meal. I was so busy that I finally set up the banquet before noon.

Originally, according to tradition, people who got married had to have a banquet in the evening. After all, the so-called wedding is also called a dusk ceremony.

But in later generations, Xu Shan heard another saying, that is, the second marriage is called the second marriage, and the first marriage must be done in the morning.

But it was not that he intended to use this statement, but that the state-owned hotel finally called everyone back to cook after he paid extra money. It was impossible for them to cook a dinner, so they had to make do with having a meal at noon.

Xu Shan found Lin Meiyun to design the invitation in advance, and then asked Cao Ling in Shanghai to find a printing house to print it.Xu Shan spent more than 1000 yuan on this invitation.

The invitation was written personally by Mr. Xiang, who is also considered a calligrapher in Longshui. This time he used Guange style to write, and the words he wrote were dignified and elegant, worthy of collection.

In addition to the invitations, the wedding car is also quite impressive.

The first car was a Mercedes-Benz specially borrowed by Xu Shan from Linzhou.

Mercedes-Benz is very rare these days. They have just entered the country not long ago. Classic models are simply not affordable for Chinese people in this era. With Xu Shan’s current financial resources, he can afford to buy them if he wants to, but his assets will shrink after buying them. many.

The ones following behind were all Santana.

Don't look at it in later generations, this Santana will be like a ruin on the street, but now, the first production line has just been completed, and the newly produced cars are not available to ordinary people even if they have channels.

A few years later, there was a saying in society that all officials, small and big, would ride in Santana.

This shows how popular this car was at the time.

When the motorcade carrying the bride and groom and some important guests appeared on Longshui Street, Longshui City was in a sensation.

Have they ever seen so many luxury cars?

Normally if they want to see one, it is basically impossible, so they flock to the streets to watch the excitement.

Among the crowd, there were several young people who looked at these cars and marveled. These young people are all high school students. Although they are all high school students, they are all in their 20s. For no other reason than they have all repeated their studies for many years.

We can't blame them. If their achievements were recorded in future generations, they might have already attended a college. However, the admission rate of this university is really too low now, and they are unwilling to accept it, so one class after another I repeat my studies every year, hoping to get into a university and completely change my destiny.

In fact, there are not a few young people like this in this era. It is said that there was a candidate named Zhu who took the exam for eight consecutive years. He was finally admitted to university, but he was given the nickname "Zhu Eighth Grade" and was unable to do so for the rest of his life. get rid of.

A young man said: "What kind of car is this? It's so impressive, and this one costs tens of thousands of yuan?"

A young man who knew a little about cars snorted disdainfully: "Ten thousand yuan? Just buy a wheel for tens of thousands yuan."

"No way, you can't buy it for tens of thousands of dollars? How much will it cost?"

Naturally, young people don’t believe it.

"How much does it cost? I don't know about the cars in the back, but the car in front of me, I read in a foreign magazine. It seems to be a car imported from abroad. It's called a Mercedes-Benz. This car costs a million."

Hearing the price, the young man who asked the question couldn't help but take a breath: "If you can drive this car, your life will not be in vain."

Other young people also agreed. Some people said: "Well, what are we working hard to get into college for? Isn't it just to live a good life? If we have the ability, we can open a college before we are 40 years old. With this car, it actually doesn’t matter whether I go to college or not.”
