Villager of Daming

Chapter 729: No matter eating meat counts as nutrition

"The reason why I have kept you waiting for so long is that, uh... Hanhan, the village guard of Xiaqiu Village, made a pot of dry-roasted fish maw for the Crown Prince and His Royal Highnesses.

Zhu Lichang knew that our Fuhua Building had a lot of customers at night, and he was afraid that the cooking would be too busy, so he asked someone to send some of them here.

If anyone wants to eat, he can call the waiter and he will pay one hundred coins for a fish bladder and ten coins for a plate. "

Shopkeeper Xu was waiting for the tussah chrysalises to be dried and stir-fried, and he repeated these words tirelessly while delivering a plate to each table.

Once the customers on the surrounding tables could hear it, he would move to another place and deliver it again.

"Hanhan?" one customer recalled.

"The one who cooks in a big pot at the lunch box restaurant, as long as he stirs the food, that dish will be eaten first." Someone else reminded me.

"I know. It is said that the King of Qin and other princes went to the box lunch restaurant to have a meal, and Hanhan cooked the food himself. Shopkeeper Xu, please bring five dishes." The person who asked asked asked for five guan of money.

"No! It's probably not much in total. Can't it be a dish for less than ten people at your table?" Someone else disagreed.

"That's right! Otherwise, if I cover it all, who can't afford it?"

"I'm just afraid that I'll get addicted after eating one, and there won't be a second one."

"It's better than not having anything to eat. If you cook it for the prince and princes, you can count it as earned if you can taste it."

"Here comes a plate, give it to me first, I said it first."

So the fish bladders worth a hundred cents each were robbed. There were many guests in Fuhua Building. It was late and it was cold elsewhere. Fuhua Building had heating and glazed windows.

Businessmen like to come here to eat, meet other people in the same industry, and get information.

The food at Fook Wah House has always been expensive, so I won't deceive the poor, but the portions are not bad, and the taste is not to mention.

Today's fish maw is special. The prince ate it together. Usually he can't eat it if he has money.

"Master, keep this last bit! We haven't eaten it yet!"

The man looked at the remaining 53 swim bladders and was worried that someone would buy them.

"It's five guan of money! If you want to eat it, let's find the fish maw ourselves, add other things and send it to the nearby lunch restaurant, and tell them that the fish maw made by Hanhan smells delicious."

Shopkeeper Xu thought clearly, why should he eat it himself when he could sell it for money? He prepared things for Xiaqiu Village, and Hanhan would help fry them.

"The boss is indeed the boss, then I'll ask who else wants it?" The boy realized.

"Send it to the shopkeeper of the brothel by the Qinhuai River. It's free. There are exactly five tables. You can eat the remaining three by yourself." Shopkeeper Xu gave some instructions.

"Okay!" The waiter put the fish on the plate, and then gave the three fish maws to the restaurant's 'executive chef', but he didn't dare to eat them himself.

"The boss has finished delivering the goods." The clerk came back quickly: "The customers around me complained. I said that if there are good things later, I should look for them first."

"When you see Zhu Lichang and the others go to the lunch box restaurant, remember to buy fish maws to send over, and then ask the brothel if they want to buy it. Hanhan will make more money by cooking once."

Shopkeeper Xu figured out a way to share his share with the people in the restaurant, sell the rest to the brothel, and give the money to Xiaqiu Village.

……

It's the first day of the leap month in November. Everyone got up late again. We ate hot pot and went to bed late yesterday.

Then I felt uncomfortable because there was no bathroom like I was used to.

"Fortunately, we have experienced everything, so there is no problem." Zhu Ping finished dealing with personal matters and found a strong reason.

Others have no problem, they all come here like this, how pretentious!

It's cold and humid in the morning, so it's better to be in a heated room.Craftsmen and laborers have no requirements for this, as long as they can have enough to eat. Which winter is not like this?Fortunately, I have cotton-padded clothes to wear this year, and a military coat is so suitable.

"Master Wang, do you usually eat like this in the morning?" Zhu Biao went to the construction site to have breakfast. He needed to know how everyone was eating.

Wang Yiqian shook his head: "Your Highness, the food is usually scarce, so when I knew you were here, I added more food.

Look at this eggplant box. If you don’t come here, you won’t be able to fry it. It consumes oil and meat. There is a layer of batter hanging on the outside. That’s called eating too much!

There are fried dough sticks, which usually appear once every three days, indicating that the fish will be fried later, and the oil cannot be wasted.

Usually, if there are fried dough sticks in the morning, there will be big fried scallion pancakes at noon, one pancake is three feet in diameter.

In the evening, we will make fried dumplings, fish and shrimps.The next day we started cooking fish in this pot of oil, and we were all familiar with it. "

"Then you are willing to do this?" Liu Bowen said at this time.

"We made our own rules! It's not that we want to, but that we think it's best. The eggplant box is a match. Can't we eat meatballs? Can't we eat dumplings?

There is too much oil in the eggplant box. If you eat it every day, you will get tired of it. We have high wages and pay attention to nutrition. It is okay to eat it once in a while.

But we like to eat fish. The nutrients are easy to absorb. As long as the intestines are cleaned when processing, it is not bitter. "

Wang Yiqian responded, It’s not that we are too poor to afford it, but that we can’t eat like this. Isn’t it good to eat fresh vegetables in winter?
Everyone ate in the canteen at the construction site, which was surrounded by a three-foot-high wooden wall to protect them from the wind.

Most of the au pair workers have already finished their meal, so those who take over from them will eat first and then take a break to replace them.

Then they eat, take a bath after eating, and change into another set of clothes. This set of clothes is thrown to the female family members of our family to wash, and the female family members earn a share of the money by washing the clothes.

Even though the work looks dirty, the clothes are actually always clean. Only the military coat outside is not washed, and that is washed once a month.

It is not easy to get skin diseases, and at the same time, I feel comfortable. Because I always take showers with cold water, my health is getting better!
One after another, people from the middle shift came over to eat. They were not in a hurry and staggered the meal time. After eating, they went to see where the house was being built and moved the supervisor's companion to the canteen to eat.

A house is built for oneself. Building such a house by oneself is a waste of labor and one must supervise the work.

People who work can't even slide if they want to. For example, there are people who go to lunch boxes to eat. They often do this kind of work and have experience.

Then they tell people who want to build a house that they should add money like this and that.

This set is ineffective for the craftsmen who followed Zhu Biao on his northern tour. Don't talk nonsense to me. Just do whatever I tell you to do. If you don't know where to stop, I'll teach you.

Those who were hired to do hard work were called masters one by one, and they learned to read, read blueprints, and do arithmetic during their breaks.

……

"Your Highness, I'm back." Zhu Taier returned by boat. Yesterday he stayed at the Xiaqiu Village Box Dinner Restaurant.

"Wash your hands and eat." Zhu Biao nodded.

"Your Highness, there were 630 fish maws delivered yesterday, 580 were sold, [-] were given away, and three were eaten by the chef in the back kitchen.

One hundred coins, totaling 160 three hundred coins, this is the note written by shopkeeper Xu, and will be calculated together later. "

Zhu Taier first reported the sales situation, and then went to wash his hands and eat.

"A fish maw costs [-] yuan, how much does a fish cost? Hanhan is really good at cooking!" Zhu Biao said to Hanhan with a smile.

"Hey! Hanhan, here's me! Well! Hey hey hey hey!" Zhu Wentian cooperated.

"It depends on who we make it for. I make it for the prince and your highnesses. I'll sell it for less than a hundred cents." Li Chang took over with a smile.

"Did he count the rides and food he took as sold?" Wang Yiqian wondered, when the account was reported, it turned out that the money was calculated based on the total.
