Chapter 254: Self-inflicted


Finally, when all these people left, the entire buffet restaurant was almost empty.

The poems written by these people that night soon spread in Chang'an City.

It's not because these people are all talented in literature and every poem is so well written, but because this legendary Mid-Autumn Festival banquet has made many people who were unable to attend the banquet curious and longing for it.

Those unheard-of dishes, and the canned lychees from Lingnan, what an exquisite and rare feast it was.

There are also many restaurants and guesthouses that imitate the dishes described in the poems, but the final dishes are often far from the dishes that night.

In other words, simple dishes such as clam steamed eggs and yong tau foo can still be made to some extent.

Dishes like Sweet and Sour Pork Ribs and Hibiscus Chicken Slices are something that today’s chefs can’t even think of, let alone make.

"Look, gentlemen, the steamed clam egg in this shop is really good."

A few days later, in a well-known wine shop in Chang'an City, the owner heard that Yao Langzhong from the household department was drinking with some of his friends upstairs, so he personally sent a pot of good wine up and chatted with them. .

"It's better than the one we had yesterday."

"This egg is steamed tender and tastes delicious.

It is indeed better than the one yesterday."

"Yao Dalang, what do you think?"

"It's generally good.

Compared with the one at Assistant Professor Luo's Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, the taste of the toppings is still a bit worse."

Ever since he attended that Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, no matter where Yao Shuang went to eat these days, people would ask him questions like this.

But in his opinion, the dishes at the banquet that day were not simple dishes that could be figured out in three to five days.

If no one pointed out the secrets, even if they spent three to five years, they might not be able to master them.

Got through.

I heard that the bamboo sticks for the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet cost three guan each.

After the news came out, they were sold out in half a day.

Most of the people attending the banquet that night were of relatively high status.

Most of them either received bamboo sticks as gifts from others or bought them themselves at a high price.

On the 14th and 15th, someone also came to Yao Shuang and said that he wanted to buy the two bamboo sticks in his hand for the price of ten guan of money per bamboo stick.

Although the Yao family is not a wealthy family, their ancestors have accumulated some money.

They have houses and land in Chang'an City, and there are also villas in the suburbs.

They don't take the twenty guan of money seriously, so they naturally refuse to sell it.

If he had sold it then, he would probably regret it so much that his intestines would turn green.

If the other party could have known in advance that this Mid-Autumn Festival banquet was going to be of such a quality, he would probably be willing to give out even 200 guan, let alone 20 guan.

I already knew that money is hard to buy, but in the past two days, many bigwigs in Chang'an City sighed.

In the early morning of August 20th, as soon as the gates of various squares in Chang'an City opened, many children rushed to the streets and shouted: "Good news, good news, new groceries from North and South have been added" “If you want boiled fish soup ingredients, hurry up and buy it.”

"As long as we have that soup, every household can make boiled fish."

"The method is written on the piece of paper in my hand.

Anyone who wants one can come and get one."

"No money, no money, free delivery" "Hey, give me one, give me one."

"Give me one here as well."

"Don't rob, don't rob" "You rough guys, please don't hurt the baby."

“Don’t crowd, don’t crowd” “Why is there no more?”

"There are also plenty of groceries in the north and south."

"Luo Sanlang printed tens of thousands of them.

Every household in Chang'an City got one and there were still more."

"Don't rush, don't rush, there are still groceries in the north and south."

The North and South groceries not only have recipes for boiled fish, but there are also shelves full of booklets called Chili Eating Manuals.

Each book costs only three cents.

If you buy it by the dozen, a dozen of twelve books will only cost you thirty cents.

You can also buy them in boxes.

In short, the more you buy, the lower the unit price will be.

Because of the fried snails as a basis, the people of Chang'an are very confident in the recipes produced by groceries from the north and south.

This time, many stores bought the boiled fish soup ingredients in dozens or hundreds of kilograms.

Not to mention the free boiled fish recipe, there are also many people rushing to buy the chili instruction manuals on the shelves.

Ordinary people usually buy one or two copies.

Those with a better family will buy a dozen and send them home, and share them with relatives and friends.

People from aristocratic families and merchant families will move boxes and boxes of goods, and most of them have to do it.

Send it to your rich hometown, or to shops in various places.

Also on the shelves on the same day as these items were the pepper seeds used by Luo.

Completely opposite to the generosity of giving away recipes for free, the price of these chili seeds is so dark that it can drip with ink.

One chili seed costs a penny, and there is no discount for buying more.

If you buy a hundred penny, you will get more.

Then two or three as a topping.

Even so, the pepper seeds in the shop were still selling fast.

Luo Yong asked their disciples to count a thousand seeds and weigh them.

Then if someone wanted to buy more than a thousand seeds, they could use a scale.

Weigh.

The same is true when paying.

One copper coin weighs one qian, ten qian is one tael, and sixteen taels is one catty.

Therefore, the weight of a thousand copper plates is six catties and four taels.

Weighing it directly with a scale can save a lot of money. money work.

At the end of August, the amount of copper coins earned from groceries in the north and south could almost pile up into a mountain, and after deducting part of the salary, all this money actually belonged to Luo Yong alone.

After earning so much money, the next thing to consider is how to spend it.

This kind of problem has never troubled Luo Yong.

In recent days, Luo Yong drives his donkey cart around the city when he has free time, especially the neighborhoods near the canals.

The crisp autumn air made it a good time to travel.

Luo Yong walked around Chang'an every day.

The more places he visited, the more he felt impressed by the spaciousness and orderliness of this city.

Even in the 21st century, more than a thousand years later, Chinatowns still exist in many countries around the world, which shows how influential the Tang Dynasty was.

It was only after Luo Yong came here that he had a deeper understanding of the history of the Sui and Tang Dynasties.

The so-called Tang Dynasty inherited the Sui Dynasty system.

The Tang Dynasty has the shadow of the Sui Dynasty in terms of laws, architecture and political structure.

For example, Chang'an City is actually the new capital Daxing City built by Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty in the southeast of the original Chang'an.

The Sui Dynasty was also an amazing dynasty.

Although it was short-lived, it cannot be denied that the two monarchs of the Sui Dynasty were very accomplished.

The founding emperor of the Tang Dynasty, Li Yuan, was the aunt and cousin of Yang Guang, the last emperor of the Sui Dynasty.

Their mothers were biological sisters.

The Sui and Tang dynasties had constant ties.

At this time, Li Shimin's harem not only had a concubine Yang, but also many women surnamed Yang.

Many celebrities and high-ranking officials in the contemporary era also adopted women surnamed Yang.

Decades later, the only female emperor in history, Wu Zetian, appeared.

The mother is also a member of the Yang family, as is Yang Guifei in the Xuanzong era of the Tang Dynasty, who is also a member of the Yang family.

In this current era, there is such an intricate network of relationships between nobles and nobles.

The more clearly he saw these relationships, the more Luo Yong understood how difficult it was for a child from a poor family to stand out against such a background.

That kid Qiao Junlin works hard every day.

It's not that he can't see the situation clearly, but for young people in this era, they have no other choice but to cling to the little hope they have.

Throughout the ages, how many passionate young people have fought and burned on this land, and eventually turned into ashes and drifted away in the wind.

Luo Yong did not know, he just hoped that Qiao Junlin would not embark on such a tragic path.

But with that boy’s stubbornness, I’m afraid even nine cows wouldn’t be able to pull him back.

Luo Yong can't promise him yet that he can change the world and open up a new path for him.

Not only for Qiao Junlin, but also for others, this is also what Luo Yong really wants to do.

But with his meager strength, who can know how far he can go on this road in just a few decades of life.

The donkey cart walked along the streets and alleys of Chang'an City for most of the day, and finally went to Fenglefang, where the north and south groceries were located.

Luo Yong has been looking for a suitable place to build an ice cellar for the past two days.

He searched and thought about it, and finally decided to set the place in Fenglefang, which is not far from Guangdefang.

If an ice cellar is built here, It will be more convenient to get ice cubes in Aunt Luo's shop in the future, and it is in the same building as the north and south groceries, so management will be very convenient.

It's just that with the rise of their North-South groceries, the house prices in Fenglefang have increased by at least half compared to the beginning of the year.

Compared with the nearby shops, the prices are actually a bit high.

Luo Yong has not never considered building an ice cellar in Guangdefang.

However, the housing prices in Guangdefang are higher than that in Fenglefang.

That area originally belonged to the West City business district.

Now Aunt Luo’s business It has become so popular that their entire street is now like a night market pedestrian street.

Recently, many shops selling various food have opened, and the surrounding housing prices are also rising.

Tsk, is this considered self-inflicted?
