Hard work

Chapter 157 Restaurant

Lan Hua'er walked around the town a few more times, and naturally those stalls selling vegetables were not missed.There are also game sellers and skin sellers.She herself often collects these and sells them in the town, so she is naturally more concerned about the price of these things.

She also inspected the prices of various meats.

If it was said that the prices of various things in the town had risen because of the Liao Zhai incident, then the prices of things in the town have fallen back a bit now.Although Lan Hua'er didn't know what the prices in the town were like before, she would bring food home from the town every Chinese New Year, and she often sold things to the town, thinking that It counts.

Things in the town are still [-]% more expensive than before, but compared to the almost doubled purchase price, the current price is already very good.

Lan Huaer really saw a shop in the town under the banner of Aozi Village.

She went over to watch it very curiously, and looked back and forth at the contract written by the village chief.

The store owner seemed to be very proud of the contract. Seeing Lan Hua'er's curious look, he took down the contract and asked Lan Hua'er to read it for a while.

"Be careful," the shopkeeper looked at Lan Hua'er with a smile on the side. He probably thought that there was a literate lady in the shop. Lan Hua'er spoke, "Can the young lady understand? It's not easy, there is someone at home who can teach you how to read."

"Well, my younger brother is studying in the town, so I just learned something from my younger brother."

Lan Hua'er saw that the shopkeeper looked very precious about the contract book, so she couldn't help but be more careful, took it in her hand and read it carefully, then thanked her, and returned the thing.

In fact, since Goudan went to the private school in the town, he has often been away from home.Even after returning home, he didn't spend much time with Lan Hua'er, so naturally he didn't have much chance to teach Lan Hua'er how to read.

But Lan Huaer was originally a civilized person with knowledge and culture who traveled to the past in modern times, and Zang Lang was a man who used to work with Chu Jiangkai, and both of them were originally literate.It's just that Lan Huaer used simplified characters before, which is different from the characters used by Dayin.

In her previous life, she could also understand traditional characters, but not all of the characters used by Dayin were in traditional characters, and there were some that Lan Huaer had never seen before, and she didn't know whether they were ancient Chinese or unique to Dayin Dynasty.

Anyway, as long as she waits for Zang Lang to be free, she will grind Zang Lang and ask Zang Lang to make gestures on the ground for her to teach her to read.

With the experience that Goudan taught her before, she doesn't have to worry about Zang Lang wondering why she learned so fast.Anyway, Zang Lang doesn't know how much she has learned.

Because she could understand most of the characters, Lan Huaer learned it very quickly.Up to now, she has almost learned the commonly used characters.Some of them still can't remember how to write, but after reading a book, the problem is no longer a big problem, and others will not have doubts because of it.

To say that this contract is really a brilliant idea.Word spread around the town that this was really a good idea.

But after this contract comes out, maybe someone will use the same contract to sell different things repeatedly in the future while they have such a thing in their hands.But this is not something that Lan Hua'er needs to worry about, so she just thought about it, then smiled and put the thought away.

After Gaihua came back from the outside, the four of them went to the restaurant run by Gaihua's owner to have a look.

Because Gaihua had told his boss the recipe in advance, so this shop actually opened a set of southern cuisine.

In addition to the dishes made with arrowroot powder and some recipes provided by Lanhuaer, the chef of the restaurant also developed some similar dishes.Although Lan Hua'er didn't look like a southern dish, it was something new that everyone hadn't tried, and there were real southern dishes to support the scene, so I guess there wouldn't be any big mistakes.

Lan Huaer looked at the waiters in the restaurant with winks, and seeing that the guests looked like real southerners, they would cleverly recommend those southern dishes.If it doesn't look like a southerner, this is a casual recommendation.

She hadn't thought of eating in a restaurant in town.

After all, she brought her own food, and if she ate a meal in the town, the money she spent would allow her to eat at home for almost a month.But Gaihua always felt that she owed this sister a lot, and tried to make it up to her, insisting that she try the dishes made with arrowroot powder in the restaurants in the town.Also speak:
"I've been here a few times with the head of the bodyguard. We, like us, can get some bargains while eating and shopping in the shop below the owner's house. Sister, try it, so you can come up with more delicious food in the future."

Lan Hua'er couldn't beat him, and she felt curious in her heart, and finally agreed.

Zang Lang originally said that he ate too much, so he shouldn't eat with him in the restaurant, but in the end he was dragged back by Lan Hua'er and Goudan.

Goudan shook his head next to him and said, "If you get lost, what should you do? Even if you didn't lose it, standing at the door and watching us eat, what is it like? We should finish eating quickly, and we will have more tonight Going to the night market. Many people say that this is not even available in the capital, so you have to take a good look around.”

Zang Lang followed and scratched his head with his head down:
"There is a curfew in Beijing."

The restaurant in this town deserves to be a place where food is sold for money.Lan Hua'er also specially ordered Baogu Lean Meat and Egg Drop Soup, and found that the food made by the restaurant in this town is indeed more delicate than what she makes at home.She even ate carrots in it.

Lan Hua'er walked around this town for a long time, but she never saw any carrots for sale. It is probably that the owner of Changhua bought them from nowhere.

There are also several other dishes, which are also very good.

Even if this meal is not discounted, Lan Hua'er also thinks it's not bad.After Changhua took a discount, the meal looked very cheap.But Lan Huaer still felt a little distressed.

After all, her family doesn't have a lot of money.

After they finished their meal, the sky was slowly getting dark.

When they first entered the town, they could already see soldiers and servants surrounding a large area in the distance. Seeing people rushing in and out, and carrying things in, I don't know what's going on inside.

It was also the first time for Gaihua and Goudan to participate in this kind of thing, and even asked the waiter to ask about it when they were eating in the restaurant.

The guy seemed to know Gaihua, he greeted Gaihua, and teased Lan Huaer with a smile.Although the guy seemed taken aback when he saw Zang Lang, he didn't show it on his face, and he really told them about the lantern festival in this town.

According to the folks, this lantern festival is quite famous in the neighborhood.Although it is not as good as the ones in the city, there are occasional people from the Dajin Kingdom in this town, so it is still very lively.

This lantern festival can't be opened casually.Every year before the middle of the year, the government will contact the big merchants and small traders in the nearby towns to let them start preparing for the lantern festival.Every booth is pre-arranged.And those lanterns were actually prepared by the merchants themselves.

Some large merchants will also hold lantern riddle guessing activities on the lantern festival, which are all voluntary by merchants.

"However," the man said with a smile on the side, "but all merchants who participate in this lantern festival can get a little tax reduction in the coming year. And after the lantern festival, people in the town come here in a special way for a few days. There are a lot of things, and things are selling very fast. It seems that there are some merchants who provide their own special products at the Lantern Riddle Festival, so they have started business with some big merchants outside who are not easy to contact. Anyway, it’s a good thing, we people I'm also happy, you guys really came right this time."

Lan Hua'er listened quietly, and suddenly felt that her whole body was going to be messed up.

She thought that her time-traveled mind was already open enough.But looking at it now, comparing her with others, she is simply too stupid and naive.She always felt that ancient people should be the kind of dull-headed people, but looking at it now, either the official who came up with this method was also a time traveler, or she had always underestimated the thinking of ancient people.

There shouldn't be so many people who travel through time in this world...

Lan Hua'er looked back and thought about it, but felt that she was too influenced by those novels and TV dramas in the past, and thought of the ancients too simply.The ancient people may indeed be more simple, and the lower class people have no chance to receive education, and they are more stupid.But it is precisely because of this that those in the upper class get more resources - the resources here naturally include educational resources.

Otherwise, where did the four great inventions come from in ancient China, and where did Confucius and Mencius come from.

Compared with such a category, Lan Hua'er feels that the situation of the Dayin Dynasty, or ancient China, is somewhat similar to that of the United States today.It is also the people at the bottom who do not get a good education and are so simple that it makes people feel stupid, while those at the top are too smart.When I was studying history at school, I often felt that some people written in history books were so smart that they seemed to be cheating. Now I look back and find that people are really different.

But for Lanhuaer, these are nothing.

She herself doesn't care about only living in the village, even if Goudan is really promising in the future, she probably won't be willing to follow that kind of life.She was not educated since she was a child, and she didn't know what rules those people had, so she didn't want to make people laugh at that time.

Why not just farm in the village.
