The Legend of Martial Arts: the Strongest Handyman

Needless to say, Yan Xiaoliu, Han Zhonghan, if it wasn't for Xing Yusen, this kind of person would really suffer from a lifetime of lack of culture.

Xing Yusen is still conscientious, but he looks forward to a big case every day for him to deal with. After Qin Feng came, he found a lot of things for him to do, but now he doesn't shout every day to solve the case.

The appearance of an underworld organization and a black stone organization can be enough to make two people toss.

"Lou Zhi County is here!"

There was a thunderous shout from outside, and everyone hurriedly stood on both sides to greet the magistrate Lou.

Ordinary magistrates can't see it, but it's obvious today, so naturally, it should be treated well. .

Chapter 151

Lou Zhixian walked in swayingly. This time, he was going out in normal clothes, bringing his master and the entourage next to him, without any official pretensions.

After all, the Ming Dynasty was different from the Qing Dynasty, and the Han people at this time were still very bloody.

Everyone hurriedly greeted them and was waved by the magistrate Lou: "Don't bother, it's time to eat and drink, I'm here to see!"

He looked around the inn with a smile, and praised: "Tongfu Inn can handle it well... It seems that this month's best shop award can be selected."

"Really?!"

When Tong Xiangyu heard this, he immediately became happy. There was an award from this yamen hanging in front of the door, which is really the best advertisement!

Come alone and see the sign of the court award here, why don't you come here to eat directly?

Tong Xiangyu here thought happily, and Xiao Guo next to him quickly reminded him: "cough...the shopkeeper, don't be in a daze!"

This made Tong Xiangyu, who was thinking about beautiful things, sober up.

"Have you had dinner in Lou Zhixian?"

Tong Xiangyu quickly greeted him with a smile, Qin Feng was standing beside him at this time, but he didn't say anything, but his eyes kept drifting towards the opposite Yihong Building.

If this Sai Diaochan knew the urgency of the matter, he should have come out now!

　　But why haven't I seen her until now?

"Ah, I have already eaten with Qin Shaoxia at noon."

"It's not that hungry yet."

Lou Zhixian sat on the chair in the lobby and smiled: "But I heard that you have been doing new dishes some time ago, attracting a lot of customers... It seems to be called barbecue?"

"We've had this barbecue for a long time. It's not a new dish, is it?"

Tong Xiangyu looked at Qin Feng as if asking for help, and Qin Feng, who was behind him, directly connected: "The method is not new, mainly because the concept is new."

He also sat next to Lou Zhixian: "Isn't there a chicken king competition recently? There are hundreds of chickens in the backyard... Lou Zhixian, you can write a word for us, and the inn will give you a special one. A family bucket."

"What... what is a family bucket?"

Lou Zhixian was a little confused, but he seemed to enjoy this kind of equal dialogue.

After all, few people can speak like this after sitting in the prefecture.

"It's the whole family of chickens."

Qin Feng said with a smile: "roasted chicken wings, honey sauce chicken legs, spicy chicken feet... all of them are available."

The crowd burst into laughter.

In fact, Lou Zhixian was already hungry when he was doing official business in the afternoon. Hearing Qin Feng's words, he immediately became excited: "Okay, let me write an inscription, how about you cook?"

Lao Bai and others hurriedly applauded, expressing their approval.

If we talk about the artistry of these fonts, it's not at all.

Whether it is writing or painting, a court-appointed official can at most be able to see it, and it will never reach the level of "art".

Mr. Dou is an existence with artistic cells. He is good at writing and painting... After all, he is a person who specializes in eating this meal, and of course he needs to clean up.

Qin Feng also copied some of Mr. Dou's moves at that time, and his current artistic attainments are not 100 points, at least 85 points.

Dazui pulled Qin Feng aside at this time, with a worried expression on his face: "Qin Feng, I know about this yakitori, but chicken intestines can also be... Those chicken legs and chicken wings you just said, I It will only be done in the traditional way, and it can't do what you said!"

Qin Feng laughed loudly: "It's okay to talk big, all these things can be roasted with fire, it's just that the ingredients are different, don't worry."

Li Dazui gave a thoughtful sigh, and then turned to prepare to sharpen his knife and go to the chicken bar.

Because the chicken king competition is about to be held, you must hide when killing chickens, otherwise the chickens in the remaining pens may become depressed, and if they are not sold well, they can only be killed and eaten.

Just as he was talking, two figures appeared at the door.

"The people's female race Diaochan has seen Lou Zhixian."

"My maid Xiaocui has seen Lou Magistrate."

On the opposite side, Sai Diaochan and Xiao Cui from Yihong Building really obeyed what Lin Feng said and came to visit Lou Zhixian.

Qin Feng didn't want to interject, because the tax management was not handled by the magistrate himself, but by the master, so this time it was considered a connection with the master.

The big mouth in the backyard has already started to prepare the charcoal fire, and Xiao Guo is carefully sorting out the bamboo sticks that have been packed up, waiting to be stringed.

Xiaobei didn't do this for a while, because although he could make a lot of money by wearing strings every day, when he got to school, students who went to school together would always say that he had a bloody smell... Even Qiu Xiaodong was a little bit disgusted. she.

Although Mo Xiaobei is carefree, she will definitely pay attention after the people outside say a few words.

So now these tasks fall to Dazui and Xiaoguo again, and the shopkeeper also intervenes once or twice from time to time.

Forget Qin Feng and Xiucai, after all, there is a saying that "a gentleman is far away from a kitchen".

Lao Bai is a runner who runs errands in the main hall to deliver food and greet guests, which is an indispensable existence.

The conversation between the master and Sai Diaochan here is very simple. Being able to come here almost represents the support of Yihonglou to the court, and the master also said that he will not continue to collect new taxes.

At the same time, Sai Diaochan also consciously stated that he would urge other tax evasion and tax evasion merchants to make up their taxes, which made Lou Zhixian and his master happy.

You must know that the salary implemented in Qixia Town is also a double salary system!

In addition to the monthly basic salary distributed by the imperial court, as a catcher, the rest of the meal and housing subsidies need to be drawn from local taxes... The one-time payment of these tax evasion and tax evasion is clear, isn't that a big joy.

Lou Magistrate solved a problem, naturally he was very happy, and happily ran to the back to look at the chicken.

I will write the inscription when I come back later, the scholar is still grinding the inkstone.

If time is not tight, it should be no problem for him to participate in the chicken king competition as a magistrate, right? .

Chapter 152

Xiucai had been observing Lou Zhixian for a while, and when he heard that Lou Zhixian wanted to inscribe it, he hurriedly took out good paper and good ink from his library and polished it carefully.

Qin Feng didn't know what he was thinking, and he came to Xiucai to remind him to study hard, which would be of great use in the future.

Great use?

What a great use.

The scholar should have been encouraged to work hard, but after thinking about it for a while, he fell into a situation of self-pity again. Thinking that he had been studying for so many years, but in the end he couldn't even get a title, and he couldn't help but feel resentment.

However, Qin Feng is a real all-round talent. Among the whole inn, Qin Feng is the one who most admired by Xiucai.

Whether it is domestic or Western, there is no Qin Feng who does not know.

Sometimes he would utter a few words that were completely incomprehensible to them, and the scholar felt more and more mysterious in Qin Feng's body.

Therefore, he simply complained about his situation and immediately recovered his state. What Qin Feng said was definitely right. He let himself learn a little bit, then it must be useful!

The inkstone in the hands of Xiucai was sharpened even faster.

At this time, in the backyard, when Lou Zhixian first saw such a large number of chickens, he was stunned.

"Why do you take so many chickens?!"

It was only now that he understood why Tongfu Inn had to hold this so-called chicken king competition.

I have been eating hard these days, but I have only eaten more than 30 of them.

Now there are more than 200 chickens in the yard. More than 200 chickens is just a concept. Three or five chickens can make you unable to get down. Fifty chickens look like a piece of black... As for 200 chickens, that is huge a bunch.

When Xiao Guo persuaded the shopkeeper not to buy so many, he said it very directly: "Get rid of, the shopkeeper, there are so many chickens, it takes dozens of kilograms of feed every day!"

It seems that Guo Furong is quite familiar with these.

Qin Feng had already arrived in the backyard at this time, and just sent away Sai Diaochan. Because there is no new tax restriction, all Sai Diaochan directly bought at least 10 of them from the inn at the market price + 50 cents. Immediately They sent someone to pick it up.

"How about Lou Zhixian, do you know why I have to report this game?"

"Qin Shaoxia, you really thought it through!"

Lou magistrate said: "I went out to do surveys and inspections before, and an ordinary person only spent less than seven or eight taels of silver a year. As a county magistrate, my annual salary is only thirty taels of silver... Alas, these few years There were natural disasters in many places in the court of time, which made people panic, and many people had no land to grow and no food to eat."

"This silver, it's really getting harder and harder to earn now."

Qin Feng believes that in the middle and late Ming Dynasty, the price and economic structure of the entire Ming Dynasty were actually relatively stable, mainly because of various natural and man-made disasters that led to large-scale famine.

The residents of Qixia Town do not need to worry, because Lou Zhixian knew about this in advance and made preparations early.

Under normal circumstances, a pig slaughterer can earn [-] taels of silver per year, which is not bad.

Horses who drive carts have slightly higher clothes, and farmers who farm the fields are slightly lower.

The salary of magistrates is generally not high, which is a very normal thing in the Ming Dynasty.

The founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang, was born in a poor peasant family and knew the hardships of the common people deeply. Therefore, he strictly controlled the government's yamen, and the salary standard was also not high.

So being an official in the Ming Dynasty is not really a bad thing.

The reason why people like Xiucai want to get on the list and become an official is because their identities are different.In the Ming Dynasty, Xiucai had certain privileges, such as not worshipping magistrates and exempting from corvée, and was one of the pillars of the local gentry class. This privilege determined that his social status was higher than that of ordinary people, and he would not be looked down upon.

But because this martial arts is a strange world, the show who has no fame and no martial arts will not get along well, and even be teased by Lao Bai and Xiao Guo.

Qin Feng has never ridiculed Xiucai. After all, he will really become a servant and a court official in the future.

・・・・Seeking flowers・・・

Under normal circumstances, the talents in ancient times were all scholars - juren - jinshi, and now the scholars are not even a juren, which is naturally a bit embarrassing.
