Parents are busy farming

Everyone at the beach was busy, and the imperial court was also very happy because of the successful construction of the windmill. When the Holy Emperor rewarded the meritorious official with a clock, a piece of news came out.

It is said that Lord Hong, the Minister of Household Affairs, has more than ten such clocks in his house, and the emperor's clock was also donated by Lord Hong.

The Holy Emperor also liked this thing very much and placed the clock in the Qianqing Hall.

According to the eunuchs around the emperor, telling the time became much more accurate after having a clock.

It is natural for the ministers to speculate on the Lord's preferences. With such news spread, many people naturally hope to own one. Within a few days, someone asked the children of the Hong family if the Hong family really had such a thing. clock.

Once the infection is confirmed, someone will want to get one through their connections.

As for who will buy it, there will naturally be people who want to curry favor with them, and they will buy it and deliver it to their homes. All they need to do is spread the news that they have recently fallen in love with the Hong family clock.

Sure enough, within a few days, businessmen began to come to the door.

They need the support of officials, so they naturally have to do what they like. Since they have clearly conveyed what they like, who can rely on this relationship depends on who can give them what they like. .

Recently, the brothers of the Hong family have also been different from usual. In the past, the brothers of the Hong family basically didn't go out much, and they all studied with their husbands. Recently, poetry gatherings and banquets for them have basically declined.

Finally, the number of people asking questions reached hundreds, and Mr. Hong had someone release the news.

"The remaining clocks from his family will be auctioned off to the newly built Fokker for sale!"

As for where Fuke Lai is, some people know it, and some people don't know yet, but it doesn't matter if you don't know, just go and find out. Therefore, the newly built Fuke Lai has attracted everyone's curious eyes.

When the guests from Jianfu came these days, Pang Chao also sent news to Wang Sheng, asking them not only to get the ingredients but also to send a chef to meet their urgent needs.

By this time, all the seafood was on its way, and of course the chef had followed.

As for the Fu Ke Lai in the county, only one chef led Li Erniu to hold the last position.

Originally, the chef wanted to take Li Erniu to Beijing to see the city, but the left-behind chef insisted on keeping Li Erniu. First, he needed Li Erniu's signature when he went to get the seafood. Second, Li Erniu was already gone. Being able to do my own thing, I can cook a few familiar signature dishes very well.

This time the boat that sent the chefs and seafood to Beijing was still rented. Their own boat has not been developed yet, but judging from the current speed, it is estimated that their own boat will be available next time.

When the ship arrived in Beijing and docked at Fukelai Pier, someone discovered that there was a wharf built next to Fukelai.

When baskets of seafood were delivered to Fuke Lai's kitchen, people realized that this was not only a restaurant with a family background, but also a place that was about to break the rules of major restaurants in Beijing.

When other restaurants in the capital get the news, they will know their spheres of influence and will probably have to re-divide them.

After all, it is not a particularly rare thing for Jingcheng seafood, but the ingredients are transported so openly and very few people name its signature.

What's more, the seafood sent in this time is said to be so big that one fish can serve a table.

This news not only reached the mouths of merchants who wanted to buy watches, but also the officials in the DPRK.

Thinking of the day they were waiting for the clock auction, they went over to join in the fun, since Fuke Lai had a private room anyway.

Fuke Lai finally opened its doors amidst everyone's expectations. The opening day was the day when watches were sold. Everyone gathered here. When the firecrackers went off, people discovered that this place was not only a restaurant, but also an inn.

Today, Fokelai also welcomed a special guest. This guest was invited by Mr. Hong. Before this guest came, Mr. Hong had been waiting at the door. He waited until the person arrived before inviting this person. Enter Fukelai's most luxurious private room.

This guest was accompanied by four or five people, some of whom were handsome and some who were strong and healthy.

When Master Hua Shao and Master Hua Shao saw the people following this person, they couldn't help but compare themselves secretly. Then the two of them came to a common understanding, that is, they were no match for each other.

Therefore, the two of them had a clear positioning on this mysterious guest.

When Mr. Hong was waiting for someone here, the adults who were friendly with him in the court came up to say hello. After he sent him away, everyone paid attention to what was going on here.

When they saw the familiar figure, everyone understood. However, no one dared to come forward to say hello at this time. They all restrained their tempers and told the boys they brought not to cause trouble.

When the plates of seafood are delivered to the private rooms and tables in the hall, the delicious smell comes. It immediately filled the entire Fukelai.

"This tastes good, even comparable to what the royal chef makes." After smelling the smell, the mysterious guest couldn't help but praise.

The person serving him next to him immediately picked up the bowl and chopsticks and pointed at the dish the guest was looking at.

First, he dug out a piece with a small silver spoon, looked at the color of the spoon, then put it in his mouth, chewed it twice and then swallowed it. After he had no reaction, he served the dish to the guest.

After the guest took a bite of the fish, he couldn't help but open his eyes and nod in approval: "Well, it tastes really good. How come the chef from Fuke has entered the palace to be the royal chef!"

Mr. Hong couldn't help but explain for Fuke Lai: "I heard some news. It is said that the big shopkeeper of Foke Lai is only good at cooking seafood, and his requirements are very high. The seafood must be extremely fresh seafood. It is said that they This seafood has been frozen all the way without any signs of thawing. It is not eaten until it is defrosted in the kitchen and served immediately, so you think it is delicious!”

The guest nodded and said with a smile: "Why is it so delicious? It turns out that the ingredients are good! But since Fuke Lai can make such delicious dishes in the future. We are greedy, so just come here to eat some, or not It’s better to waste time and money on other things!”

He had already seen the eyes of the man who was serving him turn a few times. After spending so many years together, he naturally knew what the old man was thinking. These words naturally reminded him that there was no need to do those things.

Now everyone in the imperial court is busy with various disasters, and he doesn't want to be scolded as a fatuous tyrant by the people in the world.

Mr. Hong quickly said: "Your sage, the ministers in the court can see it, and the common people in the world can see it. Doesn't it mean that all parts of the country are preparing for disasters now? We still have time.
