Chapter 21: Write your own household registration

"Stealing your mother...stealing your mother...stealing your mother..."

When Fangzheng was eating noodles, he felt that his legs were constantly shaking. As long as there were no noodles in his mouth, bursts of curses similar to exclamations would burst out!

At this time, he didn't know what was said in his mouth. He only knew that the smooth and chewy noodles were slippery in his mouth, and they went directly into his stomach without swallowing.

He Yuanshan and others could only stand aside and watch Fang Zheng eating blankly. Although Yun Chu's movements were very fast, they could not keep up with Fang Zheng's eating speed. Often, one noodle would not be put into the pot until Fang Zheng had already finished the previous one.

"It's all mine..." This was the order Fang Zheng gave after taking his first bite of noodles.

He was not like this before. Brothers came to the border with great hardships. Sharing blessings and hardships together is the minimum way to be an official.

This time, he didn't care.

Liu Xiong swallowed a mouthful of saliva and saw that Yun Chu was still pulling noodles into the pot expressionlessly. The yellow dragon-like noodles seemed to come alive, dancing with Yun Chu's hands from the pottery jar, and finally plunged into the pot.

In the soup pot.

The oil on the surface of the soup pot seals the heat of the soup. Although it has not boiled, the noodles will float as soon as they fall into the pot.

In the hot weather, there is still steam coming out, but the white gas disappears as soon as it leaves the pot noodles. The white gas disappears, but the rich fragrance of mutton soup will spread and penetrate into everyone's heart.

After Fang Zheng ate the three bowls in a row, his rationality finally returned. He gave the fourth bowl to He Yuanshan, but he was still a little reluctant to give it up when giving away the noodle bowl.

He Yuanshan is a relatively gentle man. His eating style is not as barbaric as Fang Zheng's. However, after the first mouthful of noodles enters his mouth, his eating speed unknowingly speeds up. It is no faster than Fang Zheng's Xili Hulu.

Slower, or even faster, because he doesn't speak.

Fang Zheng stared at the soup pot, Liu Xiong stared at the soup pot, everyone stared at the soup pot, and no one had the time to talk nonsense.

Delicious food has such a charm. It can make people's mouth return to its original shape and be used to taste delicious food instead of saying something that makes people feel uncomfortable.

When Yun Chu was making noodles, he had already overestimated how much these people would eat, but he didn't expect that he ended up greatly underestimating how much these people would eat.

To be precise, Fang Zheng, He Yuanshan, and Liu Xiong ate today's mutton noodle soup, while the rest only watched it.

There was no more noodles in the pottery urn, so Yun Chu filled a large bowl of mutton soup with a full bowl of meat and started eating by himself.

Liu Xiong held the empty bowl and burped: "Come again, I only ate half full."

Yun Chu looked up at Liu Xiong and said, "You ate six bowls and ate up all the noodles."

"If it doesn't work, then just keep doing it."

Yun Chu glanced at Liu Xiong coldly and said, "Junzi, chef Yuan, I'm making this meal for you today to let you distinguish between gentleman's food and slave food. It's not just to satisfy your appetite."

Desire.

Furthermore, a gentleman does not overeat and eats in moderation. If you eat like this until you die, you still have half the demeanor of a gentleman.

Gone!"

After Yun Chu yelled at Liu Xiong, he picked up his bowl of mutton soup and went to the canal to cool off. Several people who had not eaten noodles also shouted bad luck.

Yun Chu thought for a while and asked Hou San to fetch dry and hard naan bread, crush it and put it in a wicker fence. Soak the naan bread and mutton slices in a mutton soup pot until soft, put them into a large bowl, and sprinkle with

Add chopped green onions and salt, and finally add a spoonful of fragrant mutton soup, and a decent bowl of mutton steamed buns is ready.

Although the appearance of this thing is not as good as mutton noodle soup, the fragrance of the grains and the strong taste of the mutton soup, mixed with a handful of chopped green onions, still make these people enjoy eating it.

Yunchu didn't like boiled pancakes to be eaten soft, but he had a good tooth, so he took a bite of the dry pancakes and drank a sip of the mutton soup, which was still a rare delicacy in these years.

Fang Zheng was still thinking about continuing to eat mutton noodles in the evening, but Yun Chu had no intention of continuing.

He had no intention of becoming a cook in the Tang Dynasty world. Even if this cook could be the number one cook in the world, he still had no interest in it.

After resting for a while, he went back to the shabby government office under the bright sun to continue sorting out documents.

Organizing files is actually a very specialized knowledge, and it is definitely not as simple as stacking documents neatly.

There are timeline classifications horizontally, and functional classifications vertically. The documents here include not only documents from Taifu Temple, the department directly under the control of Founder, but also various government decrees issued by the Six Ministries of the Three Provinces of the Tang Dynasty and the Fifth Supervisor of Jiu Temple.

, regulations, and various things that need to be announced to the world.

If the documents issued by the above departments are just general government affairs, then the official document requirements of the Tang Dynasty Xizhou Official Office and the Anxi Army Protectorate are very specific.

In other words, the real responsibility of Fang Zheng's Grand Pass Order is actually to serve as a subordinate channel for communication between Xizhou Governor's Office, Anxi Protector's Office and the imperial court.

In order to sort out all the piles of documents, Yunchu mercilessly refused Fang Zheng and others' request to eat gentleman's food.

At this time, no one among Fang Zheng and others doubted Yun Chu's identity anymore, and in front of Yun Chu, a true scholar, they could no longer look down on this young man from Guanzhong from above.

Not to mention anything else, just this bowl of mutton noodles was enough to make Yunchu famous in a food desert like the Western Region, and he became a guest of various leaders of all sizes in the Western Region.

At the beginning, Yun Chu told Fang Zheng and others that he only knew a little bit about food, a little bit about medical skills, and a little bit about divination...

This creates an image of an unattainable young man.

At this time, besides saying that Yun Chu was a prisoner and a foreigner, let alone others who didn’t believe it, even Fang Zheng himself didn’t believe it.

For ten consecutive days, Yun Chu buried himself in a pile of documents, studying all the documents he could see day after day.

After Guo Xiaoge died in battle, the person who replaced him as the protector of Anxi was Chai Zhewei, the eldest son of Duke Qiao of the Tang Dynasty, Chai Shao, and Princess Pingyang.

The governor of Xizhou was a fourth-rank official named He Shutong. Judging from the documents, this person's presence was very low. Most of the documents from the governor's office of Xizhou were issued by Sihu under the governor.

This is very interesting. There is a Hucao in the Anxi Protectorate and a Sihu in the Governor's Office. One is a fifth-rank official and the other is a seventh-rank official. The jurisdiction of these two positions is exactly the same.

The main duties are household registration, accounting, roads, post offices, reverse travel, farm affairs, livestock, passing places, exhausting talismans, and judging people and litigation.

When these two departments were fighting endlessly, they naturally had no way to carry out their work well. Therefore, the Kucha Pass Order, an almost ignored department that was in the middle of the conflict, became the most important office.

When he saw this, Yun Chu couldn't help but pat himself on the head. He could pretend to be in the department that was most suitable for him to start his career. His luck was really indescribable.

No matter how many things the Daguan Order manages, for Yunchu, the most important thing is of course - household registration and transfer!

For outsiders, Yunchu could fill in the household registration that was difficult to achieve in the Daguan Lingguan Yamen by himself. For Lao Yangpi, he could also fill out the transfer documents that he dreamed of in Daguan Lingguan Yamen.

Then go to Daguan to make Fangzheng and Huzheng Heyuanshan and use the seal to seal it.

And these two, after having a meal of wild vegetable and mutton stuffed dumplings with Yun Chu last night, the three of them are already brothers who can be dragged out to cut chicken heads and burn yellow paper.

Looking at the clean, tidy and brand-new Daguan Ling Yamen, Yun Chu sat in the empty lobby and couldn't help but sigh.

"This is really the place where I can fly for nine days with the sound of phoenixes!"

Yun Chu's evening meal tonight is mutton, beef, mutton noodles, and cold bitter vegetables. The chive flowers that Hou San and the mute groom brought to Yun Chu were pickled into chive flower sauce, which is just right to eat today.

Fang Zheng brought wine and the legendary super delicacy - vinegar and celery.

The wine he brought was not delicious at all, it was sweet with a hint of sourness, and the wine taste was not strong at all. If he had to use a particularly appropriate description, Yun Chu felt that this stuff was just a little stronger than glutinous rice wine.

The most terrible thing is that when scooping wine from half a jar of rice, you have to dig a hole in the middle of the rotten rice, and use a gauze cover to block the edge of the pit to block the rotten rice and some black plants that look like ants. Then,

Only a wooden spoon can be used to scoop out the rice wine with white flowers in the middle.

Green ant's new fermented grains wine, small red clay stove, it's snowing in the evening, can you drink a glass of water? This poem was written by Bai Juyi, full of artistic conception, but the quality of his green ant's new fermented grains wine is a little worse, Fangzheng brought it

The Green Ant Wine is not as good as the one in Bai Juyi's poem. At least it has artistic conception, while Fang Zheng has nothing.

The vinegar and celery brought by Fang Zheng is also a well-known dish in the Tang Dynasty. It is said to be the favorite dish of Sikong Wei Zheng, who has passed away in the Tang Dynasty. It is said that Emperor Taizong sent people all over the world to find the best vinegar in order to please Wei Zheng.

Qin was given to Wei Zheng in order to make him say less about him in the future.

As a result, Wei Zheng ate the vinegar and celery as usual, and did everything he needed to say and do.

So this kind of dish was also called "Wenzhen" dish, because Wei Zheng's posthumous title after his death was Wenzhen.

When officials of the Tang Dynasty sent gifts to each other, it was very popular for a period of time to give Wenzhen vegetables to each other. Until Emperor Taizong was almost angry to death because of the "Notes on Living Life" and whipped Wei Zheng's tombstone hard with a whip.

The trend of chastity has slowly subsided.

Yun Chu looked at the vinegar celery brought by Fang Zheng, and after taking a bite, he immediately concluded that the Tang people were very pitiful and had never eaten anything good. This vinegar celery was not a dish of pouring vinegar into celery.

Instead, blanch the celery first, then add a little flour to the water in which the celery was blanched and stir vigorously. Finally, pour the celery back into the noodle soup, find a jar without oil and put it in. After a few days of fermentation, this thing will become

The sour aroma is tangy.

The sour noodle soup is very refreshing, and the celery in it has a strong sour aroma after fermentation... People in the world before Yunchu generally called this thing - pulp water!

The taste of the wine has been determined and Yunchu cannot change it. As for the vinegar and celery, Yunchu has a more advanced way of eating it.

Tear off a few strips of beef from the beef cubes on the table, tear it into shreds, slap on two garlics, put the green onions, and finally heat it up with the unique sesame oil from the Western Regions and then pour it over. A plate like this with vinegar and celery should be eligible for serving.

The emperor's dining table, after all, Emperor Taizong's records clearly stated that emperors after him would only have the opportunity to eat beef three times a year.
