Now Zhao'er is safe outside. After passing the Yamen, the Gao family dare not attack Zhao'er again. Zhao'er has to show his face outside more, and hiding will make Gao's family feel afraid of Zhao'er Well, Zhao'er also said in his letter that this time, the official is standing by Zhao'er's side to uphold justice for him. "

"Boss, Rener's mother, you have a lot of contacts in the town, listen to whether there are rumors about your younger brother outside, and see what people outside have to say."

"Hey, I'll be careful with the bastard. The third brother really doesn't need to come back? Don't you need to be afraid of the Gao family?" Boss Gu still worried.

The old man sighed and said, "Your brother wrote this letter to reassure us obviously. We can't make your brother worry about us. I just can't figure it out. Why did the Gao family target your third brother?"

The old lady slapped her legs angrily and said: "That's right, Zhao'er went to the county twice in total, how could he offend the Gao family, if he insists on making things difficult for Zhao'er, if the Gao family dares to do anything again, I will kill my old lady on the ground." At the gate of Gao's house."

Gu Da Niu and his family also couldn't figure it out. For Gu Daniu and Xiao Zhao, although Gu Zhao was a little coquettish and a little lazy before, he had never been to the county town except for the two county examinations, so he didn't think much of it. He will get in touch with the Gao family.

This Gao family is too deceitful. They have provided for Gu Zhao for these years, and they are about to produce results, but the Gao family insists on ruining Gu Zhao's future. To the Gu family, what is the difference between killing his parents?

The old man sighed: "Let's wait for Zhao'er to come back. Before Zhao'er comes back, everyone will sell tofu honestly, and don't mention your third brother to outsiders."

"Hey, Dad, we know."

The whole family was worried because of Gu Zhao's letter, but there was nothing they could do if no one was in front of them.

Every time Mrs. Gu and Mrs. Zhao went back to the town, they would follow the old man's words and pay attention to what outsiders were talking about. Sure enough, they heard someone mention the evil things that the Gao family in Qinghe County did to a scholar who was rushing for an exam, and there was a disturbance inside the Gao family's door. On the contrary, the scholar surnamed Gu, when others mentioned it, he only said that it was a bad luck and was targeted by the Gao family. When it was mentioned, it was all sympathy, and nothing else.

Boss Gu didn't dare to ask carefully, and told the old man honestly about the situation after returning home. Obviously, even if the family is separated, the old man is still the backbone of the big house. Although the old man has no confidence in his heart, he can't show timidity in front of the younger generation. After a while, I thought that what the Gao family did was obviously unpopular, and these rumors were obviously for their family, Gu Zhao. I didn't even see Gu Zhao's specific identity, but I only knew that he was a student surnamed Gu.

The old man also specially took some time to visit Mr. Tan in the school in the town, and asked him about Gu Zhao. The master also got the letter from Fucheng. He hated the Gao family's behavior, and assured the old man that this memory Zhao made trouble instead. It's a good thing, with so many scholars watching, the Gao family didn't dare to make trouble.

With Mr. Tan's guarantee, the old man's heart was much relieved. Of course, he still couldn't completely let go until Gu Zhao came back safe and sound.

The master also has his own contacts with scholars, and what the Gao family did really made him angry, so he walked around in his own small circle and made a good name for the Gao family, so in this area of ​​Qinghe County, Gao The reputation of the family has become even worse. Maybe the Gao family can't see any influence now, but gradually the Gao family will find that their work will become more and more difficult. Not only will they be excluded from the circle of scholars, but it will also spread to the lower classes. After all, the scholar who was bullied by the Gao family came from poor people.

What happened to the poor people?Did you eat your rice or use your fabric?Are we poor people not allowed not to enter the Gao family's shop and not to occupy the Gao family's fields?

Just when the Gao family was criticized by the whole city, county and town, the government examination finally released the rankings. The people in Qingling City still paid attention to this list, because the candidates who were bullied by the Gao family took part in this government examination. Yes, if the examinee passed the government examination, it would be even more abhorrent to the Gao family.

If unfortunately it doesn't pass, oh, the Gao family didn't make a fuss, and why did the Gao family bother, and make their own reputation bad.

"The list is released, and the list is released at the gate of the yamen."

"Then is Gu Shusheng on the list? By the way, I only know about Gu Scholar, but what is his name? You don't know whether he is in the list or not even after reading the list."

"I heard people say it's Gu Zhao."

"Wow, is it really Gu Zhao? He won the prize. This Gu Zhao is on the list, No. 5 on the list."

"Wow, I really got it. After passing the government test, you will be Tongsheng. The Gao family is really vicious. A young Tongsheng almost died in the hands of the Gao family."

Gu Zhao was not on the list, everyone would laugh at the Gao family's nonsense, but now that Gu Zhao is on the list, and his grades are not bad, the behavior of the Gao family is even more annoying, which triggered another wave of criticism against the Gao family .

As for the leader of the case this time, who is it? Is it important that Gu Zhao is on the list?

So for the first time, No. 5 in the government examination was much more popular than the head of the case. Everyone only remembered No. 5 Gu Zhao and didn’t know the head of the case, and ignored that the head of the case was actually from the same class as Gu Zhao. The same school in one place.

Hearing that everyone outside was talking about Gu Zhao and there were not many proposals, Gu Zhao was a little proud, and pretended to apologize to Song Ze: "I'm really sorry, Song Ze, this time I stole the limelight of your case."

Seeing Gu Zhao holding back his smile, Song Ze was a little happy besides being helpless. The more so the Gao family dared not take any action, Song Ze said speechlessly: "You are fifth in the county test, and fifth in the government test. Is it possible that you Are you taking the exam based on your ranking? You won’t be ranked fifth in the next college exam, right?”

"Haha, do you believe me when I say it's just a coincidence?"

Qi Yunfei was also speechless, but he also got fifth place in the government exam just like the county exam, which is really surprising, because the county exam only has people from one county, but the government exam is from six counties below Qingling City Taking the test together, the competitiveness on the list is much higher, and Gu Zhao can still take the fifth place in the test, which is definitely not bad.

Although it was a little unexpected, this is definitely good news, especially since Song Ze still passed the case test this time, Qi Yunfei happily invited them to eat and drink at Qijia Restaurant, and there was still the treasure of the town shop, Buddha jumping over the wall, eating well. Everyone is satisfied.

The news of Fucheng also quickly spread back to Qinghe County, which also set off a wave of uproar in Qinghe County, which also caused attacks on the Gao family.

Gu Zhao's letter was a few steps slower than the news from the government office, and the master was a few steps behind. When the master got the news, he sent someone to Shuiyun Village to bring the news that Gu Zhao and Song Ze had passed the exam, and the whole Shuiyun Village was boiling. , one case chief, one No. 5, two young children were born in Shuiyun Village, this is definitely a great joy for the whole village, and there is an endless stream of people who come to congratulate them, even the tofu at Guji Tofu Square is very delicious. Sold out soon.

Not long after, there was a saying: "Do you know why Gu Zhao is so smart that he was admitted to Tongsheng at the age of 15? It's all because he ate his own tofu. After eating Gu Ji tofu, his brain is smart."

"Song Ze? That's because Song Ze also ate it, otherwise how could he have won two cases in a row."

Many people would rather believe it than believe it, because at this time, many people, like later generations, hoped that their children would become a success, so the business of Guji Tofu Shop became better and better, and some big families came to Shuiyun Village in person with ox carts Buy tofu.

Gu Zhao, who was in Qingling City, didn't even know that because of him and Song Ze, Gu Ji Tofu Shop had been renamed back. After the government examination process was over, he was invited to drink tea.

Gu Zhao expressed that he was not surprised at all. It is obvious that the magistrate intends to make peace with the case between him and the Gao family. In fact, Master Song is already biased towards him when he thinks of making peace. Otherwise, in front of Marquis Yongning, Song The adults can completely suppress him, a peasant boy who has just passed the entrance examination, there is no need to be polite to him.

So Gu Zhao was still in a good mood and went with the servants of the Song Mansion. As expected, he met Mr. Song, the magistrate who was busy with the government examination. Gu Zhao saluted Mr. Song respectfully.

Gu Zhao's fifth place in the exam this time is a bit unexpected to Mr. Song. He is fifth in the county exam. In fact, it is very good to be on the list in the government exam. Gu Zhao is not only on the list but also ranks very high. There will be no big problem in passing the hospital examination, and it is expected to go further in the future.

He was quite impressed with the policy theory written by Gu Zhao. It was written with reason and evidence, and he had more insight than his peers. Thinking of what he was going to say later, Mr. Song felt a little embarrassed.

After coughing lightly, Lord Song said, "Gu Zhao, do you know why I want you?"

Gu Zhao saw Mr. Song's discomfort in his eyes, and it was easier to handle, so Gu Zhao didn't pretend to be confused, and said directly: "It is the matter between the students and the Gao family that makes the adults embarrassed. In fact, as long as Gao If the family does not continue to embarrass the students and their families, the students can give up and not pursue it."

Master Song nodded with satisfaction: "I didn't expect that the Gao family in Qinghe County could work. The Marquis of Yongning in the capital wrote a letter to me personally. I have to give the honor of Lord Hou, but I can't let Gu Zhao You have been wronged in vain, so I want to be a peacemaker between you and the Gao family. As long as the Gao family is willing to pay compensation, I will let the Gao family go. If you commit another crime, it will be Hou Ye's face. The official can't give it any more."

He pointed out to Gu Zhao why he gave up pursuing the Gao family, let Gu Zhao understand his difficulties, and let Gu Zhao accept him as soon as he sees a good deal, and entanglement will only be detrimental to Gu Zhao, after all, he offended the Yongning Houfu in the capital. Well, it will be difficult for Gu Zhao, a young scholar, to move around the capital in the future.

Author's gossip: Thank you for your support, okay!

Although Mr. Song, the magistrate, acted like a compromise with the powerful, Gu Zhao still accepted his favor. He is not just a fledgling young man who doesn't know how to turn. When he stands tall enough in the future, let him compromise today. People should be terrified.

Therefore, Gu Zhao said with a smile: "Thank you, Mr. Song, for planning for the students wholeheartedly. The students are very grateful. As long as the Gao family stops, the students are not willing to continue to pursue it."

Master Song got up and walked in front of Gu Zhao, and patted him on the shoulder: "I know that I wronged you this time, Gu Zhao, and I will keep it in mind. If you have something to do, you can come to me in the future."

Gu Zhao made another gesture of gratitude, and was left behind by Mr. Song to test his knowledge before letting him go back. When he went back, he was faced with three pairs of anxious eyes, especially Mu Mu, who put the prefect surnamed Song in again. On his must-kill list.

As soon as Gu Zhao came back, he rushed over like a cannonball, stopped in front of Gu Zhao, then grabbed Gu Zhao's clothes and checked him from head to toe, for fear that he would be hurt in the slightest.

But Gu Zhao didn't even lose a single hair, and he turned around in front of the wood, and said with a smile: "What are you worrying about? I've come back in a good way. Now this matter has caused great repercussions among scholars. It is impossible for Mr. Song to ignore it. The scholars in this city took me under the knife."

That's the way it is said, but before the person returns, everyone will inevitably be worried.

"Master Song told you to go there for the sake of the Gao family? Tell you to give up pursuing the Gao family?" Song Ze didn't think that the magistrate who had the same surname as him really asked Gu Zhao to drink tea. They met in private, so it is inferred that Mr. Song is trying to make peace.

Gu Zhao nodded: "That's right, but Mr. Song revealed a piece of news to me, that is, the Marquis of Yongning in the capital himself wrote a letter to Mr. Song himself, so Mr. Song had to compromise, but the explanation will give me compensation. I think it's the most beneficial. It is possible to ask the Gao family to pay me a sum of money, which is also very good, and the Gao family will not dare to continue to attack me with the money, which is a very ideal result, otherwise what will happen if I just insist on it?"

Song Ze was still very angry. Is this the protection of officials in the officialdom?Is this bullying in officialdom?

As a businessman, Qi Yunfei can quite understand the choice made by Mr. Song and Gu Zhao. It is not good for Gu Zhao if the two sides tear each other to death. Now, Mr. Song and other scholars remember Gu Zhao and know that he is with him. The Gao family was wronged during the dispute.

"It doesn't matter if that's the case. I'll help you keep an eye on the Gao family. Gu Zhao, you can prepare for the exam with peace of mind. When you are admitted as a scholar or even a Jinshi, it won't be too late to think about what to do."

Gu Zhao gritted his teeth and said, "Yes, ten years is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge."

Of course he is not a gentleman, he wants to be a villain, and villains hold grudges the most. Whether it is the Gao family today or the Marquis of Yongning himself in the future, he has written down a note in a small notebook, and he will always ask them to pay. A day of price.

Gu Zhao saw that Song Ze had been hit before he entered the officialdom, so he comforted him: "Song Ze, it is because there are such people in the imperial court that we are determined to enter the officialdom to clear up these phenomena, so that more and more people don't have to. By these injustices."

Song Ze's expression gradually calmed down, he nodded vigorously and said, "Gu Zhao, you are right, let's work hard together."

This is the future chief minister. Gu Zhao doesn't want to see him lose his enterprising spirit because of his disappointment in the officialdom. He also hopes that the future chief minister can keep his original aspirations and be a good chief minister who cares for the common people. Minister.

He is really well-intentioned, Gu Zhaomei thought beautifully.

After a few days, an officer came to inform Gu Zhao to go to the yamen to hear the trial. This time, many people heard the news and came to watch the magistrate's trial.

Gu Zhao was not surprised at all. In front of the magistrate, both Mrs. Wang and Gao Hongchang changed their minds. Mrs. Wang shouldered all the burdens on her shoulders, and Gao Hongchang also changed his mind. The master is arrogant and domineering outside, so the Gao family is willing to compensate Gu Zhao who was targeted by Mrs. Wang.

The magistrate pronounced the verdict in court, and Mrs. Wang was sentenced to death for the heinous crime of insulting scholars. Gao Hongchang compensated Gu Zhao with 1000 taels of silver due to his lack of discipline. Great joy.

However, there are still two kinds of voices among the common people and scholars. One thinks that the magistrate has done a good job. Gu Zhaolai said that the 1000 taels of silver was obviously more important, not only allowing Gu Zhao to continue to focus on his studies without any burden, but also improving the living environment of his family.

Moreover, news came out that after the case was over, Mr. Song personally wrote a letter for Gu Zhao. After he passed the examination, he could use this letter to go to Bailu Academy to study. It is obvious that Mr. Song still values ​​Gu Zhao very much. child born.

The other expressed dissatisfaction with Mr. Song's compromise. He didn't understand why Mr. Song treated a little Gao family lightly. He only dealt with a servant. The Gao family didn't hurt at all, which is far from enough of.

As for Gu Zhao taking the silver and letting the Gao family go, in the eyes of these people, Master Song must have put pressure on him. Where did a little boy get the power to oppose the Gao family and the magistrate?So I can only reluctantly accept the 1000 taels of silver.

Of course, there were also some words that were not good for Gu Zhao.

Gu Zhao...Gu Zhao really reluctantly accepted the 1000 taels of silver, and showed an aggrieved and angry expression to the servants of the Gao family who came to deliver the silver. After the Gao family left, he turned around and laughed. Twitching all over, tears were about to come out.

Gu Zhaocai counted the silver like a fan: "This can be 1000 taels of silver. I have never seen so much silver. Song Ze, you haven't seen it either. I'll let you enjoy your eyes together."

Song Ze was adamant about Gu Zhao at first, but when he heard the words of beating, his hands itched, and he really wanted to give Gu Zhao a few fists.

Mu Mu still clenched his fist and said, "I will give my brother more money in the future, as much as my brother wants."

Qi Yunfei couldn't help laughing, he didn't take Mu Mu's words too seriously, this kid can't even remember who he is, where can he get money before he finds his identity?

Song Ze also burst out laughing at the end, fortunately the scholars outside couldn't see such a scene, otherwise they would put Gu Zhao, an insulting gentleman, together with the Gao family and scold him, disgraced the scholars, and demolished the gentleness.

After Gu Zhao was happy for a while, he sighed again. Song Ze asked him what happened?Isn't it fun to count the money just now?

Gu Zhao looked at Song Ze with a "you don't understand" expression on his face: "This money is too hot to collect. Some people outside must think that I am compromising for the money. I am a money-seeker, and I am not a scholar."

"Then what should we do?" Both Song Ze and Qi Yunfei became worried.

Gu Zhao reluctantly took out 200 taels of it: "So, I will set aside 200 taels to benefit the villagers of Shuiyun Village. I will build a school in the village to invite teachers, and the children in this village can study for free. Brother Qi, please let me know about this. It's you, it's better to let people spread this matter unintentionally, I'm not the kind of person who does good deeds without leaving a name."

"Is 200 taels enough? How about I add more?"

"Enough, enough, I'll find someone to do it for you right away." Qi Yunfei hastily stopped him. He reacted slowly just now because he was digesting Gu Zhao's words. I have to say that even if some people have opinions on Gu Zhao because of this , but with his move, it will be reversed immediately.

What happened when Gu Zhao took the money?He took it out of necessity, he was the one who was really aggrieved, and the money he took was not squandered by himself, but turned around and used to benefit the folks, so that more people can read books, this kind of spiritual sentiment is not enough. great?The one who poured dirty water on Gu Zhao's head was simply not human.

Gu Zhao didn't know if there were any smart people in the Gao family, but he had to be on guard against the Gao family's move, find someone to pour dirty water on his head, and shape him into a scholar who sees money and uses money to eliminate disasters, then he still If he wants to continue to take the entrance examination, it will definitely be bad for him to spread his reputation.

Therefore, he had to bet on the Gao family's mouth with the Gao family's money first. After spending 200 taels of silver, he still had 800 taels left.

Mu Mu kept Gu Zhao's pained expression firmly in his heart, and must give his brother more money in the future, so that his brother will never show such eyes again.

The Gao family, right? You are dead!

Song Ze is happy for Gu Zhao, because it can be seen that Gu Zhao is more adaptable to the outside world than he is, and knows how to do it is the best. In his opinion, it is really great for the child to go to school without taking courses.

He also came from Shuiyun Village. Although there is another family that is not very good, the overall environment of Shuiyun Village is quite good. Their mother and son are well taken care of by the villagers, so I hope that Shuiyun Village will get better and better.

It's not only killing Gao's family, but also benefiting Shuiyun Village, it's not killing two birds with one stone. In the end, Gao's family will be so angry that he vomits blood, which is really great.

Qi Yunfei immediately sent Li Wen to handle the matter in person, hurried back to Qinghe County, told his father, and then sent someone to Shuiyun Village, Gu Zhao paid the money, but the construction of the school and the matter of inviting a teacher can be done by The Qi family came to handle it, and the Qi family could gain a wave of fame from it.

Li Wen went back with 200 taels of silver and the letter from Gu Zhao, Song Ze and Qi Yunfei. Gu Zhao looked at the remaining 800 taels of silver and rubbed his chin. How should he use this money?Although silver is good, it will not produce silver if it is left alone. You have to find a way to make silver produce more silver.

Gu Zhao has clearly realized that money and power are the most important things in this world. Money is the guts of a person, but if there is no guarantee of power, this money will not be able to be kept. The status of merchants in this dynasty is much higher than that of previous dynasties. The children can also take the imperial examination, but it is still not enough. Seeing that the Qi family has devoted all their attention to supporting Brother Qi's career development after starting a business, it is because he has no power in his hands. No matter how much money he earns, he may one day become someone else's wedding dress. The efforts of several generations have made other powerful officials come true.

Author gossip: this is

Right, he can't get it for the time being, but he can make himself rich first.

Gu Zhao flipped through the books and materials in the space, thinking about what business to do next to earn money.

At this time Qi Yunfei knocked on Gu Zhao's door, and Mu Mu went to open the door with a stinky face and brought him in, Qi Yunfei held the ledger in his hand.

"Second brother Qi, you haven't rested yet."

"I'll take a rest in a while. I came here to discuss something with you, Gu Zhao. The Qi Family Restaurant has been open for a month. Let's settle the bill." Qi Yunfei smiled and sat down in front of Gu Zhao. I have been used to it for a long time, this little guy is too domineering, and he doesn't want others to get close to Gu Zhao.

"Checkout? What account do I have to settle?" Gu Zhao asked in confusion.

Qi Yunfei patted the account book: "Qijia Restaurant can gain a firm foothold in Qingling City so quickly, it is inseparable from the dish Buddha Jumping over the Wall that you provided Gu Zhao, and other dishes made of soy products are also very popular. I accepted the recipe, and decided to give you the profit of the restaurant."

Gu Zhao seemed to be dreaming: "So someone sent me money again?"

Qi Yunfei didn't expect Gu Zhao to react like this, and almost burst out laughing.

Mu Mu anxiously scratched his head, eager to grow up quickly, otherwise let alone earning money for his brother, even now he still needs his brother to take care of him, the person he hates actually gives his brother money, isn’t it sent to his heart Is it okay, but I can't let my brother turn people away.

Because of his anxiety, several pictures suddenly flashed in Mu's mind, which were all related to money. Those pictures made Mu realize that he should be a rich man. Does that mean that as long as he thinks of his identity, he has A lot of silver that can't be spent?

Qi Feiyun nodded again and again with a suppressed smile: "Yes, I brought you money, but you earned it yourself, so you can't push it away."

Gu Zhao smacked his mouth twice: "I don't seem to have done anything, besides, it's what I want to eat."

"Then I don't care. I don't want to say more. Second brother, I can only give you [-]% of the shares, because there are quite a lot of people who need to manage everywhere."

Gu Zhao chuckled twice: "That's enough, second brother, why are you being so polite to me?"

Qi Yunfei laughed and shook his head. This was indeed the decision he made when he accepted the recipe from Buddha Tiaoqiang. He was determined not to charge for the other bean recipes given by Gu Zhao before, so Qi Yunfei thought that he would just give him the money.

He didn't have the face to swallow the money all by himself. What he wanted to pursue was a long-term friendship with Gu Zhao, and he didn't want to ruin it for a while.

Qi Yunfei showed Gu Zhao the account book. In the first month, the net profit of Qijia Restaurant in Qingling City after deducting the cost exceeded 2000 taels of silver.This is too easy to make, isn't it because there are too many rich people in Qinghe County?

Gu Zhao only knows that his parents have worked hard for most of their lives, and when the money they hold in their hands does not exceed 100 taels, this is already a good family in Shuiyun Village, otherwise it would not be able to afford him to study.

Qi Yunfei smiled and explained: "I can earn so much thanks to Gu Zhao's Buddha Jumping Wall. The cost of this dish itself is not low, and the price is also high. More than half of the diners in the first month came for Buddha Jumping Wall, so I only give it to you." I feel ashamed of every part of me.”

"Don't," Gu Zhao repeatedly waved his hands, "Second Brother Gu is generous enough. This is a business without capital. I can collect more than 200 taels a month. No matter how much you give, I won't take it."

He is a money fan, but he also has principles.

Gu Zhaozhen is not too little. Didn’t Qi Yunfei know that there is Yongning Hou in the capital behind the Gao family, and he has been busy for him? The Qi family is still committed to climbing up in the officialdom. What a great opportunity the mansion is, but the Qi family did not do this, which shows that the Qi family also has a certain bottom line principle when they want to climb up.

Without the help of Second Brother Qi and the Qi family, he would not be able to achieve what he is doing today. Doesn't it take manpower to spread rumors in the market?It has to be done without traces and people can't catch it. What can he do with a wood who barely counts as a school boy?He was just making a plan, but it was the efforts of the Qi family that really discredited the Gao family in Qinghe County.

Qi Yunfei immediately counted more than 200 taels of silver to Gu Zhao. From what happened during the day, it can be seen that Gu Zhao is a very clear-headed person.

After Qi Yunfei gave Yinzi and left, Gu Zhao looked at Yinzi from ear to ear with joy, and Mu Mu reaffirmed that his brother really liked Yinzi.

Gu Zhao didn't expect that, just after spending 200 taels, he made up for it, and it was more than that. How would he spend the more than 1000 taels in his hand?This is really a sweet burden, Gu Zhaomei is bubbling.

Gu Zhao writes and draws on paper. In addition to building a school for the village, he also wants to renovate his parents' house so that his parents can live more comfortably. In the future, he will invite two servants to serve the elders, and he will go back by himself. It can also be lived more comfortably, but it cannot be built at the same time as the school, it will take a while, otherwise it will be too much limelight.

He doesn’t have much power now, so let’s pick a small one to do business, and he doesn’t have any manpower to run it, so the best choice is to cooperate with Brother Qi. Of course, this time is different from providing prescriptions for one or two components. This time It is a real cooperative business.

Gu Zhao picks and chooses, and takes a fancy to soap. The method is simple, but it is still a necessity of life. Although there are such things as soap and bath beans these days, compared with soap, the cleaning ability is a little worse, and the cost is also high. .

With a goal in mind, Gu Zhao quickly wrote out a plan to develop the soap business one by one, two by three, including high-end soaps, as well as mid-to-low-end soaps. If the business is spread all over the country, even a small soap can make a lot of money Baman, he believes that anyone who has used it will be inseparable from it.

At night, Gu Zhao fell asleep with a smile on his face. When he woke up, he still remembered the white money in his dream. Gu Zhao tried his best to tell himself that making money is important, but being an official through the imperial examination is more important, because only power can guarantee the money in hand. It belongs to him, and he will not change his surname.

Although he warned himself, after breakfast, Gu Zhao still enthusiastically pulled the wood and started to make soap. He remembered the soap-making process clearly. His memory level has been greatly improved, which is also an important reason why he can still maintain No.5 in the government test.

All the servants in the mansion knew that the master valued Gu Zhao, so whatever Gu Zhao wanted, the servants would take the initiative to find it for him. Although one of them was a bit strange, they didn't ask much, and still got it with all their heart and soul. This movement startled Song Ze, who walked over with the book in his hand. Could it be that Gu Zhao wants to cook something delicious by himself?

Don't blame Song Ze for thinking like this. After being taken by Gu Zhao to eat Buddha Jumping Over the Wall a few times, Song Ze felt that his own taste had also picked up. It really is easy to go from simple to extravagant, and it is difficult to go from extravagant to simple.

"Eat?" Gu Zhao looked at Song Ze with a strange face after hearing Song Ze's words. Song Ze was embarrassed by him, and wanted to hit Gu Zhao's head with the book in his hand.

Gu Zhao evaded and said, "Okay, okay, I'll make you a snack later, my dear, go read your books."

Song Ze, who couldn't bear it anymore, knocked him on the head before walking away, because from his words, he knew that what he was cooking now was not eating.

After getting the plant ash, Gu Zhao used it to refine lye water. After the plant ash was mixed with water to filter out the impurities, it was then concentrated. The rest was the lye water he wanted. The process of concentration required heating to evaporate the excess water. This It took a little longer, but when it comes to earning money, Gu Zhao is very patient. In the end, the alkaline water can float the eggs, which means the alkaline water is finished.

Of course, if you open a workshop, you need to use another method to make alkaline water. Now the most convenient thing he can get at hand is plant ash.

When the temperature of the alkaline water dropped to about [-] degrees, Gu Zhao poured the soybean oil he found from the kitchen into the alkaline water, and kept stirring it in one direction with a stick. , keep the temperature of the mixture at about [-] degrees, so that the mixture can fully undergo saponification reaction, which is the most important step.

This stumbling work was done by wood, and he was happy to be more relaxed when he rushed to do Gu Zhao, so he directed him to do things, until the end of the stumbling, the oil-water mixture turned into a thick paste, and Gu Zhao put it Pour it into a container found nearby.

"Brother, what exactly are you doing?" Mu Mu asked curiously.

"Well, I will tell you what it is after a while. It will take a while. You will understand it when you use it. It will be clearer than explaining it to you now. Wait patiently. Busy Now that this is over, I will cook something delicious for you and Song Ze." Gu Zhao happily patted his wooden head and said.

Mu Mu happily said: "Okay, okay, everything my brother cooks is delicious."

He ignored Song Ze, and his elder brother cooked delicious food for him. Sure enough, the wood is the most important thing in his heart.

He doesn't remember the past, anyway, when he opened his eyes and saw his brother, he felt that this person was very important to him. Later, he heard people say that it was really his brother who saw him and brought him back to life, so his brother was in his heart No one can compare to his status.

Gu Zhao is going to make chicken cakes. Chinese dim sum is definitely not as good as the ancient cooks, so he shouldn't make a fool of himself, but Western dim sum can still be a novelty.

There was no milk, so he asked someone to find goat milk, and this time he did not do it himself. Mu Mu and the other servants in the kitchen listened to Gu Zhao's instructions, so on this day, whether it was Qi Yunfei who came back from the restaurant, or reading a book in the room Song Ze's saliva was exuberantly salivated by the scent wafting from the direction of the kitchen.

As soon as Qi Yunfei came back, he followed the direction to look for the kitchen. Song Ze couldn't rest assured to read a book, and finally went out of the room to look for Gu Zhao after he endured it. , this smell is extremely tempting just by smelling it.

Just tried it twice, and another batch of fresh chicken cakes came out of the oven. This time the finished product was much more on time than the previous two batches. Gu Zhao didn't care about the heat, so he took one and broke it in half. Li Song, because he has been busy whipping egg whites and cream, his hands are too tired to use his strength: "Taste how it is this time, I can tell just by the appearance."

"The previous ones are also delicious." Mu Mu was intoxicated by eating with his brother's hand. He dared to bet that even if he didn't remember the past, he would never have eaten such delicious dim sum.

And it was fed to him by his elder brother himself, the wood is so beautifully bubbling.

"What's delicious? Give me one too." Qi Yunfei came.

"Gu Zhao, didn't you say you made it for me? Why did you all eat it first?" Song Ze rushed over not to be outdone.

Author's gossip: Thank you for your support, okay!

The three ovens of chicken cakes made, whether they were failed or successful, were divided up by several people in the end. Except for a few helpers who shared some, they asked them to take the rest back, because Gu Zhao said that Can be stored for a few days.

Also because of this topic, Gu Zhao remembered that this kind of chicken cake, which can be stored without becoming hard like a pancake, is actually quite suitable to be brought into the examination room.

Gu Zhao was overwhelmed with inspiration when he thought that the exam would be closed in a small room for several days in the future. There is another good thing that is very suitable to bring into the exam room, and that is instant noodles.

Even if the caravan of the Qi family goes out to deliver goods in the future, they can also bring some instant noodles with them. If it is inconvenient to cook when there is no lodging on the way, they can also boil a pot of water to make instant noodles.

Just do what you want, this morning Gu Zhao successfully tried to make an egg cake, and in the afternoon he came to toss instant noodles, this thing is actually more convenient to make than an egg cake, because it doesn’t take much effort to make it, so it’s easy to make what he wants The fried noodles you want, the only bad thing is that there are no modern plastic products, there is no way to make small packets of seasoning packets, but they can only be packed in small jars, and when you need to use them from the jar Pick.

Gu Zhao made three seasoning jars, one was dehydrated vegetables, chopped vegetables and sent them to the oven for making chicken cakes, and evaporated the water to become dehydrated vegetables, the other was seasoning powder, such as salt sugar star anise pepper And so on, all ground into fine powder, tied together according to a certain ratio, and finally meat sauce, which is different from the instant noodles of later generations, it is all real diced meat, and you can also want a larger piece of meat do it.

So that night, all the servants in the Qi family's house ate the instant noodles that Gu Zhao made in the afternoon. Needless to say, the taste of this food was quite good for the first time, especially for Gu Zhao.
