Siheyuan: Incredible understanding and superb cooking skills
Chapter 40 How is the progress?
After all, in this day and age, it is difficult to expand your garden privately without being discovered by your neighbors.
Just think of the possible complaints from neighbors.
Since the room had little lighting, the interior was not bright, and a few oil lamps in the corner barely illuminated the environment.
When passing by the oil lamp, He Yuzhu couldn't help but sigh: This house is really exquisite, it even needs to light the oil lamp during the day.
The layout is obviously different from that of an ordinary family.
The room was lined with wooden shelves, on which were piled various medicinal herbs and food ingredients. He looked around carefully as he walked.
He quickly passed through the main room and followed the young man to the backyard.
The backyard is open, surrounded by various stoves, and three or four figures are engaged in cooking practices.
The fragrance just now came from this place.
At this time, a middle-aged man appeared in the backyard, and everyone, including the young man leading the way, saluted him respectfully.
"Master, people have brought it."
The young man talked to the man.
He Yuzhu saw this and said, "Senior, I want to learn about dietary therapy. If possible, I hope to learn it."
The middle-aged man didn't move much after hearing this, he just gave the young man a slight look.
The young man was not surprised by this and went straight to look for it somewhere in the front room.
At the same time, he told He Yuzhu: "The total cost of the "Complete Pharmacology" plus the dietary therapy formula is two million yuan, and no tutorial teaching is provided."
When He Yuzhu heard the price, his eyes flickered slightly and he was slightly shocked.
At this point he suddenly realized that the diet therapy here seemed to have become a commercial product.
The asking price of two million yuan is beyond what most people can accept, but this is not surprising. Anyone who can find this place must have something to rely on.
For example, He Yuzhu was introduced by a deaf-mute old woman, and her identity was obviously not ordinary.
Although the amount is not small, it is not unaffordable for He Yuzhu, who is responsible for the treatment of a serious illness.
What's more, not only did the master sponsor him 5 million yuan, even if he didn't have this money, he was willing to do his best to raise it for the master's treatment.
However, He Yuzhu showed a hesitant expression on his face: "Senior, this price is too high, isn't it? Besides, I'm not sure whether your formula is genuine.
"
Although He Yuzhu's physique has changed significantly after learning martial arts, he is still relatively young after all. Upon hearing the price of 20 million yuan, it would obviously arouse suspicion from others if he easily agreed.
The middle-aged man did not get angry when he heard He Yuzhu's questioning. Instead, he shook his head and said, "You have come to my door, which shows that you are not completely ignorant of the market.
My items are secrets passed down from heaven. In the past, who could use such ordinary items? As for the price, if the economy is really tight, you can replace it with food of equivalent value! "
When talking about food, He Yuzhu noticed a flash of urgency in the man's eyes. Only someone like him who had mastered the "Ming Jin" could capture this tiny detail.
"If you exchange it for food, I can give you a 20% discount!" The man further emphasized the preferential conditions.
Facing these words, He Yuzhu was full of confusion, but he remained calm on the surface: "Are you joking? My family is not a rice and flour shop, where does all the surplus grain come from? The cash is what I collected after selling the family antiques. Senior, can you give me a little discount, just 10%? "
In such transactions, He Yuzhu expressed himself carefully so as not to expose any flaws.
After hearing this, the man was slightly disappointed, but then he regained his composure: "One percent is too much, how about half?"
The deal is considered half done.
Every little bit you can save is a little bit.
While the two were bargaining, the young man who had gone to the front room to get something came back with two blue-covered books in his hands.
"The stuff is here, you can take it away if you have the money ready."
The middle-aged man looked at He Yuzhu and said.
"Can I take a look first?" He Yuzhu made a request.
Hearing this, the other party frowned slightly, glanced at He Yuzhu, and signaled the young man to hand over the book.
They had no worries that the young man would take the opportunity to run away because the transaction took place in the courtyard and they were confident about this kind of business.
He Yuzhu had no intention of escaping at all, he was just testing the authenticity.
So he opened one of the books, titled "The Truth of Medicine", and just glanced over the contents.
Not long after, a reminder sounded in his mind:
[Medical Essence Proficiency +1]
[Medical Essence Proficiency +1]
[Proficiency in Medicine +1]
The prompt tones rang in succession, and He Yuzhu nodded silently.
This book is definitely authentic and effective.
As for the other health-preserving prescription, the verification method was the same. After the prompt sound, he returned the book to the young man.
“Okay, I’ll take these two books, and I’ll come back with the money in the afternoon.
"
……
In He Yuzhu's room, there are millions of cash piled up, but this is naturally not suitable for public withdrawal.
She couldn't leave the room either. She had to complete the purchase immediately and then go back inside. After all, the business the man just discussed seemed to be of great importance.
The average person obviously cannot afford a transaction as large as two million.
Who knows if there are other eyes watching around?
Therefore, He Yuzhu adheres to his principle of acting cautiously.
After deciding on the afternoon transaction, he left first.
On the way, He Yuzhu wondered why the man in the backyard was so excited about the grain trade fair.
Although materials were not abundant in this era, food should not be a problem for those who did great things.
Public ownership and the subsequent quota system had not yet been implemented, so we were rich now and did not have to worry about food.
After thinking for a long time, the mystery was still not solved.
Anyway, what he needed was the knowledge of medicinal food to treat his master, and he didn't want to get involved in unnecessary matters.
……
When we arrived at the yard, lunch time was approaching.
Before going to dine with the deaf old lady, He Yuzhu went to the Qianmen vegetable market.
In addition to dinner, this trip was also for purchasing necessary supplies.
His personal space now contains 50 kilograms of flour, rice, and cornmeal, and 30 kilograms of eggs, pork, cabbage, and radish.
As for seasonings, ten kilograms of vinegar, soy sauce and salt were prepared each.
In an instant, half of the original space was occupied.
This lavish purchase cost a total of 816,000 yuan.
Eggs and pork cost the most, nearly half a million yuan.
With the supplies in He Yuzhu's space, even an ordinary family could support themselves for one or two years if they budgeted carefully.
However, he himself understood that although the supplies seemed abundant, their consumption was actually quite alarming.
Just practicing martial arts consumes several times more resources than an ordinary person.
Overall, the space reserves in this area are not as durable as expected.
This expenditure is huge, but necessary.
The five million dollars gifted by the master was reserved for this purpose.
Passing by the front yard, he returned home with rain on his body.
It was lunch time.
This was the first time he enjoyed lunch at home since traveling here.
So he took out two eggs, a pound of pork, as well as cabbage and radish from the space himself.
First, he washed the ingredients and set them aside, then cut the pork into pieces. As a level 4 chef, he seemed very adept at this moment, and his orderly cooking movements made the fire light up quickly.
The simple task of cooking was left to Xiao Yushui.
Since he hadn't been home to cook for a long time, Yu Shui watched from the side and was eager to help.
So, He Yuzhu grabbed some rice and motioned Yushui to wash it in the pool next to the atrium.
At some point, Xu Damao walked in quietly from the front yard.
It is now the weekend and his school is no longer in class, but since Xu Wood helped him solve the projectionist's problem, he has begun to formally learn from the projectionist on the weekends.
At lunch time, Xu Damao happened to see He Yushui washing rice in the yard, and he couldn't help but glance in the direction of the He family.
He was about to say something, but when he remembered Xu Wood's previous warning, he muttered something in a low voice.
He thought to himself that when he became a projectionist in the future, he would naturally have his chance to shine, and then he would make Sha Zhu humiliate him.
When Xu Damao arrived at the backyard and was about to whistle happily as he entered the house, his eyes happened to fall on Liu Haizhong's house. He saw the aunt anxiously helping the seriously ill Liu Guangqi out of the house.
"Old man, hurry up! If Guangqi continues to burn like this, the family won't be able to bear it!"
Then Liu Haizhong's worried voice came: "He was fine yesterday, how come he suddenly became like this?"
"Forget it, don't complain about it. The first thing to do is to take him to the clinic as soon as possible. Guangqi's matter cannot be delayed."
After that, the two of them quickly carried Liu Guangqi on their backs and rushed to the medical station.
This scene was witnessed by Xu Damao who was just about to return to the house.
He thought quickly and hid in the house immediately, fearing that the Liu family would find out that although he followed Liu Guangqi and shouted, he did not help, and he was afraid of being blamed by them for it.
At this moment, Xu Wude was leisurely drinking Erguotou in his glass.
Seeing Xu Damao walking into the house busy, he teased, "Hey kid, take it easy and don't knock over my things.
"
"Dad, oops, Liu Guangqi was sent to the hospital."
Xu Damao said breathlessly.
Hearing this, Xu Wood did not show much surprise.
"Don't worry about those troubles. How's your progress in studying Master today?"
……
The tempting aroma of pork stewed with cabbage wafted from the kitchen, and Xiao He Yushui could hardly stop drooling.
She swung her small body closer to the boiling pot on the stove.
"Brother, let me try it!" Shaking He Yuzhu's arm, his little eyes fixed on the steaming soup, completely unable to move away from the pot.
Seeing her like this, He Yuzhu couldn't help but laugh out loud.
He gently picked up a piece of stewed pork belly and reminded, "Be careful, it's hot!" At the same time, he leaned over to blew on it, then handed the pork belly to Xiao Yushui's lips.
Xiao Yushui opened her mouth, her baby teeth not yet fully grown, and she bit down impatiently.
Although He Yuzhu had already blown the blast while sizzling, the pork belly still retained some warmth as it had been taken out of the pot.
The little rain was in a hurry to eat, making soft gasp sounds from time to time.
This little girl really lives up to her nickname - greedy cat.
She ate with great joy while crying out in pain.
"Brother, your dishes are so delicious. Yu Shui hopes to have the chance to taste them again!"
Looking at the funny and amusing expression of the rain, He Yuzhu couldn't help but smile in his heart.
As soon as he finished speaking, a hurried call suddenly came from the yard:
"Where's Jia Zhang? Hurry up, your son fainted during the factory assessment!"
