Chapter 376

It's really hard to compare Lin Wanwan head-to-head with them in ancient piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. After all, they have been immersed in this since childhood, and Lin Wanwan studied exam-oriented education when she was young.

Then why can she kill through chess today?It's very simple, there is a mystery behind this book case!

Lin Wanwan hid a mobile phone installed with the national team's training AI software system underneath, and asked the AI ​​to help out when they were losing. It would be strange if they won.

However, Lin Wanwan's main use of this cheating device is not against the noble ladies, but the person who will come at the dinner party.

That's right, it's Xiao Chong.

The thought of defrauding Xiao Chong has been circling in Lin Wanwan's mind for a long time.

Recently, during the slack season, the labor on the mountain weir has been rolled up again, and Xiao Chong is too busy to touch the ground.

In addition to its mountain weir, Sun Lake has also been excavated.Xiao Chong is determined to start the water conservancy project, and the profits from the saltworks will not survive unless they are exhausted.

He is such a big foodie that he didn't even have time to come over for lunch. You can imagine how busy the county government is.

Seeing the speed at which Xiao Chong spends money on construction projects, the scalps of the collective gentry and nobles in Huan County are all tense.

Lin Wanwan also had a premonition that she might be plundered, but fortunately she had a white-feathered chicken subsidy.

During the locust plague, the batch of white-feathered chickens bought by the common people from the county government were put in the fields to eat insects on weekdays, and they were sold in less than a month and a half.

For a time, there were a lot of white-feathered chickens in the Hu County market, and the supply exceeded demand, so the price was naturally much cheaper than ordinary chicken.

The fat and strong white-feathered chickens that can be slaughtered in 42 days, the common people were overjoyed to see them, and even shouted at Xiao Chong.

Now there are still rumors that Xiaoming's mansion and Le'an Township are descended from the stars, otherwise, how can they produce white-feathered chickens that can be slaughtered in 42 days?

The account of locust control in Yan County has been reported to the imperial court, that is, the ancient chariots and horses are slow, otherwise the north, which is plagued by locusts, should react at this time and look for the white-feathered chicken.

After all, this chicken can eat locusts and grow fast. For Datang, where there are a lot of hungry and poor people, it is really a rare good thing.

At this time, Datang has not expelled chicken from the "meat" category. For ordinary people, eating chicken is a rare luxury.

Eggs and chicken soup are always inseparable from confinement, recuperation after illness, and banquets. It can be seen how nourishing chicken is in the hearts of ordinary people.

Until next year, that is, the fifth year of Zhenguan, chicken will be expelled from the ranks of meat dishes by Tang Taizong Li Shimin.

Why did Li Shimin do this?There is also a short story recorded in historical materials.

In the early Tang Dynasty, the whole country was really poor. Even with the solid foundation of the Sui Dynasty, it was still not enough to feed all the common people. There were still many mountain people hiding in the mountains as black households and could not come down.

In order to be frugal and curb the trend of extravagance, the imperial court issued a regulation prohibiting the censor from traveling to eat meat.

At that time, Li Shimin had a lover, Ma Zhou, who was a clean and honest official with strong abilities, and his only hobby was eating chicken.

Once when Ma Zhou was on a business trip, a small official who wanted to bring him down saw eating chicken, and immediately reported to Li Shimin, accusing him of eating meat!

In order to protect his beloved Qing, Li Shimin expelled the chicken from meat, sophistry said: "I forbid the censor to eat meat, fearing that the prefectures and counties will waste money, so why eat chicken?"

Well, you are the emperor, you have the final say.Since then, chicken is not considered meat in Datang.

Although five years after Zhenguan, chicken is not considered meat in the official sense, but for ordinary people, only the stomach knows best, and everything else is false.

Because the demand for white-feathered chickens in the whole county has soared, Lin Wanwan had to invest in a chicken farm in Hyundai a few days ago to deceive others.

After all, it is easy to buy finished white-feathered chickens, and it is also easy to buy white-feathered eggs, but it is not easy to buy a large number of ancestral white-feathered chickens. There must be a channel.

Lin Wanwan originally just bought some white-feathered chickens for the family, and made small troubles to subsidize the family, so she didn't have to think about it so much, but when Xiao Chong performed the ceremony of praying to the gods and offering sacrifices to the heavens, the stall instantly expanded.

After a few times of buying in large quantities, she felt that it would be impossible to continue like this. So many chickens disappeared without a trace after entering her small villa. She was afraid that the big guys would catch them and slice them up for research.

Let's not talk about whether the people in Linjiazhuang will wonder why her family hatches chicks so quickly, even in modern times, she can't make it through.

In particular, there are two carpenters on the second floor of the house who are doing renovations, so they look at Lin Wanwan very strangely every day.

So one time when the little grandmother in the family was cleaning Lin Wanwan's small villa, she saw the white-feathered chicken she bought, and said quickly that she had a distant nephew who had set up a chicken farm in the countryside.

Asking Lin Wanwan to buy chicken from him next time, Lin Wanwan had a flash of inspiration, and immediately contacted the other party through the relationship with the little grandma, and wanted to invest.

At first, the other party thought Lin Wanwan was joking. After all, young people these days, how can they go back to the countryside to raise chickens.But it wasn't until Lin Wanwan took out the real money happily that he realized that she was serious.

Lin Wanwan told him that she wanted a batch of pure green white-feathered chickens, and that it was fine to eat chicken feed that was proportionate and nutritious, but antibiotics and other drugs must not be added.

She does not invest to make money, but wants to eat a green and nutritious chicken.

This reason was extremely powerful, and it convinced the other party in an instant (mainly because she gave too much, and there was no reason to refuse).

So Lin Wanwan transformed into a small chicken farm owner with [-]% of the shares in the chicken farm.

Let's go back to the wine and banquet in the house. In the afternoon, Lin Wanwan killed all sides in the chess game and won the reputation of a chess master.

In the evening, Lin Wanwan's natal Xiao family in Qiantang sent someone.

Xiao Xianghua, Xiao Ronghua, Xiao Jingkun and other representatives of the grandchildren who came here, it is not a trivial matter to enter the house to drink, so they naturally want to come to congratulate.

Only Xiao Jingfeng, the eldest son of Xiao's family, did not come. It was probably because of the drunken gaffe last time, which made him feel ashamed and embarrassed to visit again.

The rule in the Tang Dynasty is that the banquet is only in the evening, and the meal at noon is just to warm up the scene, so during the day, all the families come are young women of the same generation as Lin Wanwan.

But the dinner party was different. Except for the Xiao family, other people who were walking with the Lin family, from old to young, brought gifts to congratulate them.

Xiao Chong also rushed over before the dinner began.

His staff member and clan brother Xiao Ce, his cousin Dugu Di, and physician Chen Liang, who often discuss (teach) acupuncture and moxibustion with Lin Wanwan, came together.

The dinner party is richer than the luncheon party.

All kinds of noodle cakes that are popular in Chang'an are arranged, including steamed cakes, pancakes, and hummus cakes; the rice that people in the south of the Yangtze River loves to eat is also arranged. Bamboo tube rice made from bamboo cut on the mountain!

Bamboo rice is one of the specialties of Lingnan Road.

This kind of bamboo tube rice steamed with glutinous rice, japonica rice, bacon, pickles, carrots, salt, soy sauce, oyster sauce, cooking wine, black pepper, and a little olive oil is soft and delicious, with a glutinous taste and a fusion of bamboo. The fragrance made a group of upper-class people in the county who had never tasted such a delicious food feel salivating.

If Xiao Chong didn't want to save his stomach to eat other delicacies, he would probably be able to kill Sanzhutong by himself.
