Chapter 9 The Traitor You Hun
The autumn is crisp and clear, and the blue sky seems to have been cleaned. The cleanness and thoroughness make people feel very comfortable.

The fields outside Chaoge City are golden, and the heavy rice has already bent over the waist, and it is the harvest season again.

Although the continuous wars in recent years have caused the government to raise various taxes on the people by a few percent, and there have been many complaints from the people, but this kind of annoying thing obviously does not affect Qi Yuan.

Now Qi Yuan is in an unusually happy mood.

Looking at Jiang Ziya, who was in a hurry and had already cut into his hands for the third time while cutting vegetables, Qi Yuan couldn't help laughing out of the wickedness in his heart.

With a red face, Jiang Ziya wrapped his hands in a white cloth.

He still had some elixirs on his body, which he exchanged with his fellow disciples when he was studying Taoism in Kunlun Mountains. Not to mention this small wound, even if he cut a hole two feet long on his body, a elixir would not hurt if it went down. Can heal quickly.

However, it was too wasteful to use such a precious elixir on such a small wound that was accidentally cut by a kitchen knife. He didn't have many elixir on him, so he was not willing to use it indiscriminately.

Jiang Ziya couldn't help being a little discouraged, and said dejectedly: "I made Mr. a joke. I can't even do such a small thing. I'm really ashamed."

Qi Yuan shook his head and comforted him: "There is no one in this world who is born with all kinds of skills. Although cooking is a small way, it takes hard work and hard work to achieve success. You just started learning for less than three days. Denying yourself in your heart, this kind of mentality is unacceptable, if you not only don’t want to overcome it, but have the mentality of giving up when encountering difficulties, without the slightest perseverance, then what can you do in the future?”

"Looking at the sages of the past dynasties, who did not achieve success through untold hardships. Dayu controlled the floods and never entered the house three times. Cangjie created characters and went through so much hardship. We should not only look at the achievements of the sages, but also Think about the painstaking efforts they put in when they did these things, and how many hardships they have gone through to make such a great contribution for our human race. Although we dare not compare with the sages, we must learn the principles of life and doing things carefully. OK."

"Even if ordinary people are busy in the fields every day, they may not have a few days of leisure throughout the year. Even if they are free, they will still hunt in the mountains and fish in the water. If they are like you, If you give up easily when things happen, then there is no place for my human race to survive in this prehistoric world!"

"No matter what we do, we must work hard to do it well and do it well, so that we can be worthy of our experience in the world. Everything requires our hard work and sweat in order to get better results."

With one hand behind his back, Qi Yuan preached to Jiang Ziya with a posture of hating iron but not steel.

It was rare for Jiang Ziya to come to the door by himself, Qi Yuan didn't want to let him slip away like this, so he immediately explained the truth and quickly dispelled his negative ideas.

Jiang Ziya was ashamed when he heard the words. Yes, if he gave up just because of such a small setback, it would only show that he was unbearable.

Just like when I was studying Taoism in Kunlun, although my aptitude is not good, it is difficult to achieve immortality, but I also did not give up, and practiced hard. Why did it become so easy to give up after going down the mountain?

Thinking of this, Jiang Ziya quickly cupped his hands and gave a deep salute: "What you said is very true, Jiang Shang will definitely study hard in the future, and he will definitely live up to your teachings."

Qi Yuan nodded with an unfathomable face, and secretly laughed. It seems that the effect of chicken soup for the soul is good. It seems that in the future, if there is nothing to do, he must pour two bowls of poisonous chicken soup for the old man, lest he want to run away if he has nothing to do. .

Thinking of this, Qi Yuan stretched out his hand and pointed at the people who were practicing knife skills in the yard, and said: "Look at everyone, which one is not practicing hard, maybe you will not get what you want in return after paying, but people who give up halfway There will definitely be no rewards! Therefore, Ziya, calm down and practice hard. Only by putting your mind into it can you master the skills faster."

Qi Yuan showed the style of a teacher, pointing Jiang Ziya like teaching elementary school students.

"Thank you sir for teaching, Ziya will definitely remember it in his heart."

Jiang Ziya saluted respectfully, and went back to practice the basic skills of cooking - shredded radish.

Qi Yuan, who was flattered in his heart, stood aside and pointed out a few words lightly. After the radish is shredded, it should not be wasted. The current living conditions have not reached the point where they are wasting food.

Qi Yuan instructed them to knead the noodles, and then use the rolling pin he invented to roll the noodles into thin pieces, then put the shredded radish marinated with seasoning on top, layer by layer, cut into pieces and put them in the bamboo Make it in a steamer and steam it for a quarter of an hour.

Although the food is simple, it is already a delicious delicacy for ordinary people.

Every day outside Qi Yuan's courtyard, many people come to buy various handicrafts made by these apprentices. The price is cheap and the taste is not bad, so they are very popular.

In fact, not only the steamer, but even copper pots, shovels, spoons, etc., Qi Yuan also had people build them according to his own requirements.

Although copper pots have many shortcomings, and the copper smelting technology of this era is not good enough, it is easy to rust, but when training cooks for some high-ranking officials and nobles, using pots is obviously more reflective Strength, and all kinds of stir-fried dishes can also be made.

…………

In the palace hall, it was rare for King Zhou to go to court, and all civil and military officials came to the hall to discuss matters.

King Zhou Di Xin looks very majestic, with a majestic and tall body, wearing a gorgeous royal robe, sitting tall on the throne, looking down at his highness and ministers.

All the civil and military ministers reported the state affairs accumulated during this period of time. There were not only the rebellion of the two major princes in the east and the south, but also the report of the 72 princes including Yuan Futong who heard about the grand master's northern expedition. There were so many things that King Zhou felt a headache listening endlessly.

"The ministers looked at the handling, and those things that are not too important should not be reported."

King Zhou waved his hands in boredom, listening to these courtiers talking endlessly, how could there be a beauty who accompanied him in the harem to feel comfortable.

The treacherous official You Hun, who was good at trying to figure out King Zhou's mind, knew that King Zhou was a little impatient.

As the jester around King Zhou, who is best at flattering and flattering, how can he not play his role.

So You Hun went out to play and said: "Your Majesty, I recently heard that there is an old man in Chaoge who can cook unparalleled delicacies in the world. Anyone who has tasted the delicacies cooked by the old man will be astonished. Your Majesty It is very hard to work hard for state affairs, why not recruit the old man into the palace, and cook some delicious food and wine for your majesty and queen, it will surely make your mother happy."
