Xiao Houye's seven-year imperial examination and five-year road to Kaifeng[75]

Compared with Pang Yu's gift to Zhao Jue, the gift from the young man was much taller, but it was a bit easy to collect dust.

"It would be great if there was a transparent cover that could cover it." Pang Yu said with a gesture.

"You mean Liuli?" Zhao Jue asked after hearing the description, blinking his eyes.

"What is Liuli?" As a modern person, of course he knows what Liuli is, but as a child, Pang Yu doesn't necessarily know, so he can only ask curiously.

"This is it." Zhao Jue casually took out a glass vessel for Pang Yu to play with.

After Pang Yu took it, he saw that it looked like glass, but he would not be stupid to think that it was glass. Same.

This reminded him of the crystal cup of the Warring States Period. It looked no different from a modern glass, but it was a world of difference.

If you can burn the glass yourself, can you make the glass cover directly?

It seems that he has to work harder to copy ancient books, so that he can exchange for future books. Among other things, glass is still very useful, and it can also be used as a greenhouse. If the windows are equipped with glass, the room can be Much brighter.

Otherwise, you can't get a pile of sand to burn, he remembers barite, feldspar, quartz sand and the like?

It's a pity that he is a liberal arts student, so he really doesn't remember these things very much.

He still cherishes the 'birthday cake' given by the boy. After all, it is so expensive. It is specially carved and cannot be bought with money. Pang Yu decides that no one is allowed to touch it. Got a brand new feather duster.

if not?Use a cloth to rub the jade?

If there is dust, just dust it with a feather duster, not to mention that he uses local materials directly. There are too many chickens, ducks and geese in the farm. Recently, eggs are mainly laid, because the restaurant has not been fully completed.

The kitchen alone is not ordinary, it can accommodate more than a dozen people, and it is divided into three areas, a roasting poultry area, a cooking area, and a side dish area.

Originally, the location of the restaurant was a small two-story building. Zhao Jue had someone add a second floor, and the first floor was reinforced. They were all built according to Pang Yu's ideas. Of course, Zhao Jue also added his own aesthetics.

Just wait for the New Year's Eve to open, and the pot can still be sold for a while in winter.

Before the Lantern Festival, the restaurant opened, and there was a lively meal of firecrackers. Those firecrackers were specially wrapped in red paper according to Pang Yu's request, which looked very festive.

After setting off the firecrackers, the shopkeeper was in the middle of the big flower ball made of red silk, holding golden scissors, and cut the middle of the red silk with a click of the scissors. According to their owner's words, there must be In that atmosphere, under the witness of a group of people, the restaurant opened.

Among other things, the attention of the people around has been attracted, the shopkeeper is also a capable person, and he advertises the discounts that have been negotiated long ago. Jug of wine.

Just because of this, many people were attracted to enter, not to mention the booming business, but also a bit of traffic.

Pang Yu and Zhao Jue were watching a play upstairs. They had been insulated from the beginning, and the heater was very small, so the private room didn't feel cold at all.

The heater is very simple. It is an iron stove with a pipe connected to the outside to avoid carbon monoxide poisoning. A pot of water is also boiled on the stove. The pot is made of copper, and you can drink it when you are thirsty.

The first and second floors are for dining in the lobby, and the third floor is an independent private room. The place with the best view is naturally reserved for Zhao Jue. The two enjoyed the bustling downstairs. They didn't want anything to eat, so they bought a The freshly baked roast duck is hot and fresh.

This roast duck is really not cheap, one or two, not just for sale.

Nonsense, if the roast duck is sold alone, who will get half of it?

Some people ordered to try it, while others were hesitant to look at the price. After all, it was only one tael of silver, and it’s not like they haven’t eaten roast duck before.

Soon the roast duck was put on the table of customers, and they found that this roast duck was different from other places. The skin was served first, and the sauce was unknown, as well as green onions and vegetables. In fact, it was courgettes. Modern people More familiar, is the cucumber.

Although the amount of courgettes is small, they are also very expensive. It's winter, want to eat vegetables?What a beauty!

That is to say, Zhao Jue has the ability to find a place to grow vegetables in winter. Zhao Jue, a big landlord, owns a kind of hot spring mountain, which is useless anyway, so he built a vegetable shed to earn a little money.

In Pang Yu's view, the Hot Spring Mountain is better than building a resort. On a cold day, you can go to the Hot Spring Villa to enjoy the flowers and soak in the hot springs. Wouldn't it be beautiful and happy!

"It's not impossible for you to say that. It sounds very good." After hearing Pang Yu's description, Zhao Jue's heart was already flying. It is the best thing, it is impossible to endure hardship, even in this life.

Just the gift from his brother, and the things left to him and his biological mother by his sister-in-law Guo Shi, are enough for him to live comfortably for a few lifetimes by lying down and doing nothing in this life.

Especially after having that kind of dream, he wants to lie down even more. Wouldn't it be nice to be a rich and idle person?

It's silly to think about tossing things that don't belong to you, and finally dying without a place to bury you.

As far as his current life is concerned, whoever doesn't envy him is his brother, who is still an emperor after all, and isn't exhausted.

Zhao Jue is different, he lives a happy life, he can do whatever he wants, plus he is only 14 years old, his brother will not give him any heavy tasks, spend money smartly, be happy!

Don't look at him raising pigs, chickens, ducks and geese, the old man still came to him to beg him, why?It's not that he raised the best.

Not to mention anything else, those pigs eat the best food. Of course, compared with humans, there is still a gap. Basically, what pigs eat is boiled, unlike ordinary people who raise pigs casually.

Originally, although their pigs are not as expensive as mutton and beef, they are still more expensive than ordinary pigs, and they are fatter. This is the result of their cultivation. There is a fixed ratio of pig food, and the price of selling a pig is definitely not cheap, after all, the portion is there.

Compared with pork that is too fat, Pang Yu likes leaner pork. Zhao Jue’s pig farm is divided into two different types of pig breeding. The pigs provided to the royal family and others choose lean pigs with a lot of exercise, and the price is relatively higher. After all, weight is sacrificed, and weight loss also requires money!

In the future, the public will be big fat pigs, and they will definitely be popular. Pang Yu even expected how popular it will be.

At present, most of the restaurant's dishes are pork, with a small amount of mutton, and roast chicken and duck will also be the largest output.

"Is this really duck meat?" The diner was still in disbelief after watching the cook slice it off the duck. The taste was different from the roast duck he had eaten before. It was so delicious. !

It's indescribably delicious, so I quickly wrapped another one for myself, it's worth a tael of silver!

"Also, bring me a roast duck too!"

Many people couldn't help swallowing their saliva when they saw this diner devouring their food, and couldn't help but order a portion. Of course, there are people they know, and it's okay to eat together.

After all, they didn't want them to hold the roast duck and eat it, cut it into pieces, so that they could tell the quantity with a clear eye.

This novel way of eating has attracted many people. Roast chicken is not so expensive, and every table ordered one to try.

The business is coming soon, Pang Yu ordered some vegetables instead, which is the most expensive restaurant.

This is the seed he planted before, and he found Chinese cabbage in it, so he planted it without hesitation!How can we do without Chinese cabbage in winter!

Schedule now!

No, on the Hot Spring Mountain, most of the cabbage is grown. The Chinese cabbage grows well and is easy to store after picking it off. Pang Yu also made spicy cabbage. Occasionally, if you want to eat it, you can have a bite. Just eat it every day, he doesn't like it that much.

The Lantern Festival soon ushered in. Every year, the Lantern Festival in Bianjing is very lively. The whole street is decorated with lights and festoons, and all kinds of restaurants are carefully decorated to attract diners.

When Pang Yu came to the city last year, even though he caught up with the festival, he didn't have much chance to go out. At that time, his sister was in Liu's hands, and he didn't even think about going out to the streets.

It's different now, Zhao Jue has opened a restaurant in the city, and at that time he listened to the movement outside through the fence, not to mention how lively it was.

Finally this year is different, you can go for a walk in the street, the seven-year-old, he is no longer the chicken cub of last year!

The main reason is that he has not seen the ancient Lantern Festival. In modern times, the festive atmosphere has become less and less, and some festivals have also been packaged as shopping streets by businesses, especially those for couples. , It is unbelievable that ordinary products that are usually sold can be doubled in front of couples.

Pang Yu was a housekeeper in his previous life, so he didn't need to celebrate Valentine's Day, mainly because he had no one to celebrate...

Going out with Zhao Jue, he was still a little nervous, not for anything else, there were many people and thieves on the street, several times more than he usually saw on the street.

It's like the common people around Bianjing City crowded into the city on weekdays, but think about it, they are busy making money on weekdays, and there is no chance to relax. Naturally, they have to go out for a stroll during a big festival like this.

"Hold on to me." Zhao Jue stretched out his hand to Pang Yu and said.

"Oh good." Pang Yu couldn't refuse, just joking, if he was accidentally pushed away by the crowd, he would bet that bad luck would find him in no time.

Thanks to his foresight, Pang Yu grabbed Zhao Jue's hand and did not let go. Even though he is from modern times, he has never seen such a spectacular lantern. The last time I saw it was when he was young, in the city he lived in at that time. There was also a lantern show, but it was gone later.

It's just that he's too short, and he can't see anything when the people around him squeeze in, he's so tired...

Being short is a disadvantage, and he is seven years old, so he is too embarrassed to be hugged.

"Ah!" Pang Yu suddenly felt that his hand was loosened, and he took off in the next second. He was easily hugged by Zhao Jue, and his vision immediately widened.

"See." Zhao Jue asked with a smile.

"I saw it!" Pang Yu was happy, for no other reason. If it was someone else, he wouldn't care whether he could see it or not. Zhao Jue could notice that he couldn't see it, and hugged himself up.

The 14-year-old boy is taller than most of his peers because he has been practicing martial arts all year round. I don't know if it is because his family is a military commander. Anyway, Zhao Jue is already over 1.7 meters tall, and he feels that he will break through 1.8 meters in the near future.

This gene is there, the official parents are not short, Pang Yu is more worried about himself, his father is only 1.7 meters seven, his mother is only 1.6 meters?

He has kept up with his nutrition. If he can grow to 1.8 meters, he should be laughing.

However, compared with the average height, 1.8 meters is not short. You must know that there are a lot of modern people who grow to 1.7 meters.

Recently started practicing martial arts with Zhao Jue, Pang Yu has the confidence that as long as he persists, he will not be short.

When he arrived at a place with a little less traffic, Pang Yu still asked to come down and walk by himself. Although it was very comfortable to be hugged by someone, he was a seven-year-old boy after all, and his soul was also an adult, so he still had to face it. .

Zhao Jue was still a little unhappy, but it was a pity that Pang Yu insisted, so he could only let him go.

"You'll be tired later, tell me." Zhao Jue reminded.
