Li Tai looked at the servants beside him and said, "Do you know what air pressure is?"
"I...I don't know."
A group of servants said tremblingly.
Li Tai raised his head proudly and said, "I know you don't understand."
A grain store in Chang'an City.
Zhang Yang carried more than ten bags of soybeans into the grain store. The store owner smiled and said: "Young man, I will give you five more cents today."
After wiping the sweat from his forehead, Zhang Yang pointed to the water tank beside him and said, "Let's change the sauce as usual."
The store owner asked in confusion: "Do you like sauce?"
Zhang Yang nodded.
The shopkeeper frowned and looked at him for a while, then he picked up ten kilograms of sauce and one kilogram of millet and handed it to him and said: "We have finished moving the food in the past few days, and there will be no work for you tomorrow. I have given you all these sauce and millet.
I'll still give you fifteen cents, just treat it as a friend."
"Thank you, store owner."
The shop owner nodded happily, it was rare that this young man knew etiquette.
I value him more and more in my heart.
Zhang Yang returned home and started making soy sauce.
Li Yue looked at the black sauce curiously and smelled it carefully.
Place a bamboo basket in the center of the sauce.
The water in the sauce flows into the bamboo basket by squeezing the black sauce water.
There are not many soy sauces that can make these sauces, only about two jars.
"Is this the soy sauce you're talking about?"
"Um."
"Can I eat it in this dark place?"
Li Yue said with disgust in her eyes.
Zhang Yang poured the squeezed soy sauce into a cloth bag and filtered it out. After filtering out the impurities, he poured it into a small jar.
Soy sauce is mainly extracted from fermented soybeans.
As for the extraction technology, in the records of later generations, the earliest words about soy sauce appeared in the Song Dynasty.
The taste is saltier than later generations of bean paste.
Anyway, I have soy sauce at home.
Looking at the soy sauce in the jar, Zhang Yang smiled and said, "Our quality of life has improved by a small step, which should be worthy of celebration."
"drink wine!"
"Well, drink."
After working at the stove for a long time, Zhang Yang first put some fat meat into a hot pot to squeeze out the oil. After the oil was squeezed out, he took out the lard residue inside.
The pork in the other pot has already been blanched.
Zhang Yang washed the pork carefully, put it into the oil pan and started cooking the braised pork.
I made a bowl of braised pork and picked up some chicken feet soaked yesterday.
Two dishes are placed on the table.
Li Yue took the lead in picking up the chopsticks, picked up the braised pork, chewed it slowly, and said after thinking: "So pork can be so delicious."
Zhang Yang also took a bite and it seemed a little too salty.
I'll put less in it next time I make it.
After saying that, she poured two bowls of wine.
Although Li Yue is thin and small, her drinking capacity cannot be underestimated.
Li Yue took a sip of wine and said, "Pair the braised pork with a sip of wine. It really has a different taste."
Seeing the look of enjoyment on Li Yue's face, Zhang Yang took a sip of wine as if facing a formidable enemy.
This time I must win her over.
I have never seen her drunk until now.
Li Yue poured some more wine and some for Zhang Yang.
After drinking some wine, Li Yue's face turned red, but she showed no signs of being drunk.
Zhang Yang looked at the wine in his bowl. He had already drank a bowl, and his brain was feeling a little groggy at the moment.
He reluctantly took another sip.
Zhang Yang looked at Li Yue's expression, and she took a bite of braised pork with a calm expression.
Li Yue picked up the wine bowl and said: "Here's to our beautiful life."
Zhang Yang also picked up the wine bowl and said, "I hope our quality of life will also improve."
The two of them touched their wine bowls, and Zhang Yang took another sip.
Looking at Li Yue's wine bowl, she has finished drinking the wine in her bowl.
Looking at his wine bowl again, Zhang Yang felt that he would be drunk if he took two more sips.
Li Yue was eating chicken feet and said, "This cold dish of yours also tastes quite delicious."
Looking at Li Yueba chewing his mouth while eating, Zhang Yang became more and more puzzled.
Is it possible that she is still drunk after a thousand cups?
Li Yue picked up a chicken foot with chopsticks and put it in Zhang Yang's bowl, "You can eat it too."
Zhang Yang slowly picked up the chopsticks and felt that the light in front of him was not very bright, and there was a double image of Li Yue sitting in front of him.
After a while, Zhang Yang felt that his eyes were getting darker and darker, until he could no longer hold his head up.
Lost to her again.
The feeling after a hangover is very bad.
When Zhang Yang woke up, he felt his mouth was dry and he had a vague headache.
Li Yue came with a bowl of boiling water and said, "Take a sip."
After taking a sip of hot water, my mouth and stomach felt much better.
Married a wife who drinks more than me.
It is indeed a very melancholy thing.
I had a simple breakfast.
Zhang Yang took out the cash box and counted the money with Li Yue.
Seeing so many silver cakes and copper coins in the money box, Li Yue was also surprised. Zhang Yang was able to save so much money because his family was frugal.
After counting carefully, the couple made statistics.
Counting the silver cake given by King Wei before.
Li Yue calculated and said: "A total of six hundred and fifty-three coins."
After speaking, Li Yue put all the money into the box, "Our family has a lot of money."
If you carefully calculate the cost of opening a store.
About three hundred guan can be used to pay for labor and ingredients.
This money is enough to last a month or two.
If you want to buy a store in Chang'an City, the price will be higher.
So I chose to stay near Lantian County.
And because people in Guanzhong like to hunt in autumn.
Especially those high-ranking officials.
Many times Lishan Mountain is their first choice for hunting.
Lantian County is right next to Lishan Mountain. If you open a store outside Lantian County, you won't have to worry about the number of tourists during the autumn safari days.
As long as the first business is done.
The food is delicious enough so you don't have to worry about repeat customers.
Zhang Yang is still very confident when it comes to cooking.
No matter what era it is, the collection of information has always been important.
First of all, the price of land near Lantian County is not high, and hunting is popular in autumn, and the Lishan area is the best choice for hunting.
At this time, if you open a store in this area, at least you won't lose too much.
In the past two days, Zhang Yang does not plan to go out and will make a simple range hood at his home.
The principle of a range hood is similar to that of an exhaust fan.
It’s just that Zhang Yang plans to make a foot-operated range hood.
You can pull the rope by stepping on the pedal. The other end of the rope is tied to the bracket on the fan. As the rope is pulled repeatedly, the fan can rotate.
