Seeing Zhang Jingxiu nodding, he agreed to let Tian Hong become the third shopkeeper.
Shen Lie smiled and said no more.
Stand up.
Chen Shen hugged his fists and bowed, then walked into the kitchen and began to process the pile of precious potatoes.
In a quiet and dark shop.
The sound of chopping vegetables came from the back kitchen, while Zhang Jingxiu was sitting alone in front of the window, looking at Zhang Kui and other guards who were washing horses outside, and he was so stunned that he didn't know what he was thinking.
It's strange to say.
Sitting in this slightly dim shop, the surroundings were very quiet, but it gave Zhang Jingxiu a sense of security, and the uneasiness in his heart gradually calmed down.
She supported her white chin with her slender hands and began to stare at the scenery outside the window in a daze. Her turbulent heart gradually became more at ease.
After a while, the aroma of cooking came from the kitchen.
After a while, Shen Lie walked out of the kitchen and placed several plates of hot side dishes and white porridge in front of the beautiful lady.
Zhang Jingxiu woke up with a start, and instinctively twitched his straight little nose.
It was just getting dark at this time, and the morning light was shining through the window lattice.
Shen Lie gently placed a plate of vinegar-sweet potato shreds, several carefully prepared side dishes, and a bowl of white porridge on the table.
Then Shen Lie wiped his hands with his apron and smiled at the beauty: "No matter how guilty you are, you still have to have breakfast. As the saying goes, people are like iron and rice is like steel. If you don't eat one meal, you will panic."
The beauty looked at the sunny smile on his face, nodded instinctively, and said: "Yes."
With a pure smile blooming at the corner of her mouth, Zhang Jingxiu picked up the chopsticks with her delicate hands and started eating silently, taking one bite of porridge and one bite of vegetables.
Zhang Jingxiu had no appetite at first, but when she took a bite of the dish, the refreshing taste of sour vinegar immediately increased her appetite.
Savoring this wonderful taste, Zhang Jingxiu was slightly stunned, then put down his chopsticks and looked carefully at the vinegary potato shreds in front of him, and his bright eyes lit up involuntarily.
She picked up a shredded potato with her chopsticks and let out a soft cry: "Huh?"
What kind of dish is this?
Don't say you haven't eaten it, you haven't seen it either.
As the bright eyes looked over in surprise, Shen Lie smiled slightly. From Zhang Jingxiu's reaction, we could tell that this shredded potato dish was about to become the next hit dish.
Unknowingly, after eating a bowl of white porridge and a bowl of shredded potatoes, and taking a sip of hot tea, Zhang Jingxiu felt a little shy.
It’s a bit indecent for a daughter’s family to eat so much...
The bright and pretty face turned slightly red, and Zhang Jingxiu quickly took out a handkerchief and wiped his mouth.
But Shen Lie said calmly: "How?"
Zhang Jingxiu wiped his mouth and smiled happily: "Refreshing and delicious, very delicious... I guess you are capable!"
Zhang Jingxiu gradually became immune to Shen Lie's endless abilities and was no longer surprised.
Zhang Jingxiu, the big shopkeeper of Diianfang, pursed his lips and smiled sweetly. The trace of anxiety in his heart disappeared, and he seemed to see the wealth rolling in.
He smiled and even narrowed his eyes delicately.
Shen Lie also nodded happily.
Now that the dish using potatoes as an ingredient had been cooked, he was not in a hurry to quit the dish. At this moment, Shen Lie seemed to have an enlightenment, and wonderful ideas came to him one after another.
Shen Lie pondered and said slowly: "This dish cannot be sold as a side dish."
Zhang Jingxiu nodded understandingly: "Yes."
With such a delicacy and delicacy, the ingredients must be cherished very much. Naturally, it cannot be sold together with braised and roasted dishes. It has to be made into a signature dish of Biianfang in some way.
With this signature dish, Shen Lie plans to make a gorgeous turn.
At this time, Shen Lie suddenly stood up and said anxiously: "Let's go out of the city!"
He has a brilliant idea.
Morning, outside the city.
After leaving the city, Zhang Jingxiu was like a canary out of its cage. Under the protection of his guards, he rode a rouge horse and walked slowly along the official road.
Shen Lie and Tian Hong followed closely with Tiqi. After the rain, everything outside the city was green, and farmers were working in the fields.
A few people had no intention of lingering on the beautiful scenery, but hurried towards the foot of Yanshan Mountain.
An hour later.
A few people came to the unknown wilderness village at the foot of Yanshan Mountain, thirty miles away from the capital.
Zhang Jingxiu slowly reined in his horse at the entrance of the village, looking at the Western-style mill and the slowly rotating windmill, his bright eyes lit up.
This picture is really strange.
Turn around.
Zhang Jingxiu said in surprise: "Where is this?"
Shen Lie smiled mysteriously and said softly: "Come with me."
A few people crossed the field ridge and came to the mill at the foot of the mountain. They saw a blond and blue-eyed foreign Taoist priest walking over the mountain road carrying two buckets of water.
As soon as the foreign Taoist priest raised his head, he saw Shen Lie and others. He quickly put down his carrying pole, bowed his head to them, and preached the Taoist slogan.
"Heavenly Lord of Infinite Blessing and Longevity, see you, sir."
Tian Hong nodded and responded: "Do your business."
The foreign Taoist priest obediently picked up the bucket, bent down, picked up the water ladle, and sprinkled the sweet mountain spring water into the potato field.
Zhang Jingxiu was stunned by this strange scene. Looking at this weird Taoist priest with blond hair and blue eyes who was over 190 meters tall, he opened his mouth in surprise.
That surprised and delicate expression seemed to have seen a ghost.
Shen Lie smiled slightly, walked to the potato field, checked it out, and touched the green potato seedlings. It looked like these potato seedlings were about to bloom.
Shen Lie's heart moved, and he walked to Victor and said softly: "When the potatoes bloom, do you want to pinch off the petals and top them, so that the potatoes that grow will be much plumper."
Inadvertently revealed the secret of growing potatoes.
This time it was Victor's turn to be in a daze, looking at Shen Lie as if he had seen a ghost, and quickly said with sincerity: "That's exactly it."
Shen Lie nodded and stroked the green potato seedlings with his hands. The wonderful idea in his heart became stronger and stronger, so he turned around like a whirlwind and started discussing with Tian Hong and Zhang Jingxiu.
Shen Lie planned to let several people work separately. Tian Hong took people to find the commander here to discuss buying the nearby wasteland and building a small farm.
This small farm will become his food supply base from now on.
Shen Lie took out an axe, a saw, a plane, and a bunch of tools commonly used by carpenters from his horseback, and put them all in a big bag.
After bringing all the tools, Shen Lie called Zhang Jingxiu and walked to the forest not far away.
The light in the mountain forest is a bit dim.
The birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant, and the remaining flowers of the wind and rain have fallen to the ground.
Shen Lie walked around the woods several times and spotted a poplar tree as thick as a bowl. He spat on his hand, shook the tendon on his arm, and chopped it with an axe.
"Eighty, eighty!"
Sweat danced in the air as the poplar trees fell.
Zhang Kui also brought a guard over to help, and helped Shen Lie use a saw to remove the branches and leaves, then peel the trunk and cut it into small pieces of wood.
By noon, the men were a little tired, so they took the dried meat off their horses, took a few bites of the pancakes, and then continued to cut the wooden strips into small pieces.
Time passes minute by minute.
Zhang Jingxiu watched quietly from the side, perhaps too bored, so he simply sat under the shade of a tree and knitted a garland with his delicate hands.
The stream is flowing, and among the birds singing and the fragrance of flowers, here is a leisurely and elegant scene, and there is sweating like rain, which contrasts beautifully under the shade of the trees in the afternoon.
Busy until evening.
Shen Lie wiped the sweat from his forehead and stopped.
