Yan Lizhou and Chen Xun were visiting Fucheng, while Yan Sanlang and his son quickly found out where there were houses for sale.
Yan Lizhou didn't expect to be able to sell a yard worth five yuan, but he didn't expect that they were very lucky, and they actually met someone who was selling a yard worth five yuan.
This five-entry courtyard was built by a wealthy businessman. The location is not very prosperous, but it is clean enough, which is very good for Yan Lizhou and the others.
The courtyard of Wujin is also big enough, even if everyone in the Yan family moves here, they can still live in such a big house.
Although the price is relatively expensive, they have made a lot of money in the past year. The Yan family and Yan Lizhou still made enough money to buy this five-in yard.
Chen Xun did not subsidize anything. She was willing to take money from the space supermarket because it was not much money and she could earn it back.
But she won't pay for the house now. After all, they will leave after the task is completed. It is impossible for her to live in the house forever.
So the Yan family and Yan Lizhou paid for the house themselves, and she just watched.
The house was bought, and the title deed was written in the names of Yan Sanlang and Su. Yan Lizhou did not put the house in his own name.
He wasn't very sure if he completed his mission and really passed the exam and left, whether the original Yan Jiulang would come back.
If the original Yan Jiulang comes back, his character and plot will remain the same as before. Who knows if he will lose his fortune just because his name is on the land deed?
So it is better to write the names of Yan Sanlang and Su. In the future, when you make money, you can buy another house and write the names of Yan Dalang and his wife.
The house was bought and there was nothing that needed to be repaired, so Yan Lizhou and his party quickly moved out of the inn and moved in.
After the move was completed, it was already the third day of August, and the eighth day of August was the day to enter the examination room.
"The exam is coming up in a few days. Are you really not going to read a book these days?" Chen Xun asked, sitting in the yard and looking at Yan Lizhou who was boxing in the empty yard.
This guy hasn't slacked off in his kung fu this year after traveling through time. He spends one to two hours every day practicing martial arts, working diligently.
Although he had been studying seriously to complete his mission, he was more concerned about his kung fu and his ability to march and fight.
Therefore, he never slacked off, and when completing the task of studying, he did not fall behind in his martial arts.
"The previous half year was enough. There are only a few days left. How much progress can we make by reading?" Yan Lizhou said calmly.
Anyway, no matter how long it takes them to complete their mission here, as long as they leave this world and return to their world, the time will pass when they enter this world.
Since the time is not too tight, Yan Lizhou will not force himself.
He will complete the task meticulously, but he is not the kind of person who likes to improvise. No matter how diligently he reads a few days before the exam, will he be able to make up for what he didn't know before?
"Review the past and learn the new. If you read more books these days, you may have different insights. You can also use it during the exam." Chen Yu said with a smile.
"Relaxing your mind and exercising regularly will also be very useful for my exams." Yan Lizhou said while boxing.
Chen Xun shrugged noncommittally. It wasn't her exam anyway. Since Yan Lizhou wasn't nervous, she wouldn't put any pressure on him.
Yan Lizhou was actually a little nervous. Although he was confident in his knowledge, he had never taken an imperial examination before.
This time the imperial examination gave him a different feeling, and he was also nervous.
After all, this was a field he was not familiar with. He used to be a natural military attache, but now he is taking the imperial examination route, and it is also the civil examination route. How could he not be nervous when he dabbles in an unfamiliar field?
But after all, he has a mature temperament and has experienced a lot. Even if he is nervous, he will not show it.
"Uncle, want something to eat?" Mrs. Su came over with the food she had just made and greeted Yan Lizhou who was boxing.
"Wow, Sister-in-law, what did you cook that tasted delicious?" Chen Xun, who was watching Yan Lizhou's martial arts practice, saw Su and immediately became interested.
Her third sister-in-law's cooking skills are really good, and with this year's training, her cooking skills have improved even more.
Although the food Su makes now is not as delicious as what the imperial chefs make, it still tastes unique and Chen Yu likes it very much.
"I made some of the egg yolk cakes that Chun Niang mentioned before." Su Shi said with a smile, "The new baking kiln in the courtyard is really good. I tried to make the egg yolk cakes you mentioned, and it tastes okay."
After buying the house, Chen Xun remodeled the kitchen considering that Su would use the kitchen more often and continue to do food business in the future.
Nowadays, the large kitchen has not only several stoves, but also stoves for steaming things, stewing things, and various functions.
There is also a bread kiln, which Chen Xun asked the masons from Fucheng to make. Now it has just been built and put into use.
Unexpectedly, Su Shi was able to use the bread kiln independently and make egg yolk cakes after receiving some advice from Chen Xun.
"Didn't my uncle say before that I would send a letter to my father and mother to come to Fucheng? Everyone is going to Fucheng to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival." Su Shi said with a smile, "During the Mid-Autumn Festival, I can also try the mooncakes made in that kiln.
Is it yummy."
"Yeah." Chen Xun nodded while eating the egg yolk cake.
Of course, Su didn't pickle the salted egg yolks in the egg yolk cake herself. Although her cooking skills were good, she couldn't bring so many salted egg yolks from the village, so she bought high-quality salted egg yolks directly from Fucheng.
The salted egg yolk tastes very fragrant, coupled with the sweet red bean paste and layers of crispy pastry, this egg yolk cake tastes very good.
Chen Xun likes this kind of salty and sweet snack, and considering that neither she nor Yan Lizhou likes very sweet food, Su controlled the sugar very well. The taste of this egg yolk cake is not that sweet.
.
This talent for just the right seasoning is also why Chen Xun thinks Su's cooking talent is good.
"Third sister-in-law, you can eat it too. This egg yolk cake is too delicious." Chen Yu said while eating, "Third sister-in-law, you can try making this egg yolk cake and sell it. Many people should buy it."
Su smiled and said, "I heard that chefs from high-end families make their own snacks. They shouldn't worry about what others do, right?"
"How can ordinary people be willing to buy such expensive snacks?" Su said.
Because she has experienced hardship and understands how ordinary people live, Su is a little worried that if her egg yolk cake is sold, no one will take it.
"Don't worry, Sister-in-law. It's not like those wealthy families won't buy snacks outside. As long as the snacks are delicious, they will buy them."
"Have you forgotten, Third Sister-in-law? There are several pastry shops in Fucheng, and their business is also very good." Chen Xuanan advised.
Although those high-end and wealthy families have many cooks, and there are indeed cooks and servants who can make pastries, but there are really delicious snacks made outside, and they will spend money to buy them.
So if Su really makes egg yolk cakes and sells them, she won't have to worry about selling them. As long as she makes a name for herself, her business will be good.
After all, this egg yolk cake tastes really delicious.
