Chapter 42 There are strangers among the people
Chapter 42: There are outsiders among the people
Liu Shaoqing could not think of any other way, so he could only send the servants of the four families out. This faction also had knowledge and let his family's servants be with the servants of the other three families, and divided them into three groups. The main job of his family's servants is to supervise the servants of the three families.
Liu Shaoqing was afraid that the servants of the three families would eat the food he provided for in vain and would not give him serious work. He could only use this method. He had already thought that if the servants of the three families would dare to delay their work and not work, they would directly return the person tomorrow morning.
At that time, those who do not work will have to peel off even if they die, so as to shock other servants.
These servants have 130 or 40 people together. Each family has to leave a few to do things. Naturally, they will not send everyone out and divide them into three groups. They will go to catch shrimps at night.
Liu Shaoqing did not listen to other people's suggestions, so what kind of wooden rafts should be made? Is it to be a shrimp or a death if I put the wooden rafts out at night? During the day, I see who dares to put the wooden rafts into the sea?
Liu Shaoqing arranged for people to be busy, and the people elsewhere were also busy. Zhang Zhong had not returned home for the past two days and had been guarding the construction site in front. It was not clear that his home had already attacked Liu Shaoqing and the other four.
The torches were lit one by one, and the people who were digging the river had already changed into people who had rested and worked hard there. It was easy to get tired at night, but everyone thought it was the turn of the night, mainly because people who worked here at night could drink some wine. Although it was not far away, the humidity was heavy, and the soil was wet when digging the river, which was not enough for ordinary people to bear.
It is easy to catch a cold after sweating, so people who work at night can not only drink some wine, but also take turns to deliver things to no longer bring water, but instead deliver soup. No matter how bad the soup is, it is better than boiling water, especially the ginger inside, which can be used as a dish.
The vegetable leaves and meat foam in the soup became the favorite things for those who work at night. They were both gentle and comfortable, and they worked harder one by one. It should have been a situation where the efficiency during the day was higher than that at night, which made them come back.
What makes some people regret is that it is not that you can do the work you want to dare to do at night, work in three shifts and work in high-intensity work tomorrow, but it will be replaced by the afternoon.
"Master, are you hungry? Have something to eat." While Zhang Zhong was still walking around, the person from the inner courtyard next to him asked.
Zhang Zhong's stomach was already roaring, so he stopped and said, "Then eat some, don't need too much, otherwise you will be sleepy after eating."
"What do you want to eat? Here are fried fish wrapped in noodles and fried dishes." The servant asked again.
"What do they eat?" Zhang Zhong pointed to the worker.
"What others eat is cakes, master, that dish is specially made for you."
"Oh, then I'll eat cakes too. Add more chopped green onions. If the meat is too fat, put less." Zhang Zhong didn't want to put it on his own to eat it. In that case, the prestige he had finally established would weaken.
But he didn't know that he chose simple, but there was already prepared something not simple there, at least better than the people's things. He cut the dough cake and chopped the cooked meat half fat and half thin, put more chopped green onion and coriander into the cake, and made five in a row, then stopped and sent it to Zhang Zhong.
Zhang Zhong didn't think so much, so he took it and ate it. He was stunned after just taking it. He turned his head to look at the person who delivered the cake and asked, "Xiaobao and Juanjuan are here too?"
"Master, how do you know?" The man asked in surprise, that is, the Zhang family members, if they were someone else who dared to speak like this, would have been beaten to death.
"How do I know? The meat in the Roujiamo I just ate used nine steps, including those that remove fishy smell, those that enhance freshness, those that add fragrance, and those that stop vomiting. Sixteen kinds of seasonings were used inside, which made it very light. Xiaobao and Juanjuan came out, who had the ability to do it?
Especially coriander and chopped green onion. Coriander is used for nodding in front of the spot. The chopped green onion is made of scallion white. The drops of oil are also used to burn the oil of peppercorns with sesame oil. Looking through the whole Tang Dynasty, there is absolutely no second place to do. The two kids are not sleeping yet, so what are they doing?”
Zhang Zhong found that the taste was wrong. He was too familiar with it. He liked it too much. He was very particular about the food when choosing ingredients, and it was even more difficult to make it. He had not tasted this taste from other places. This method was to have a son and a daughter-in-law who had leisure time. It was never said that he could not eat it in the Shuiyunjian Restaurant in Sanshui County, so he could only eat it at home.
The almost a little heat and the almost a little seasoning will change. Others don’t say they don’t have the chance to taste it, but they can’t learn it even after tasting it. This simple Roujiamo requires two people to make it at the same time, and each has its own division of labor.
The servant did not dare to lie anymore, and smiled and said, "The master is so amazing. You will know that this is made by the young master and the young lady, including the noodles cake. It is deliberately made more alkaline. The master likes to eat such things the most, so the young lady and the young master can do so meticulously.
Master, there is also a salted goose egg. The young master said that if the master tastes it, he will give the salted goose egg to the master. The young master also said that the master can know who made the Roujiamo by just taking a bite, and asked, Master, I have already opened it."
The servant in the inner courtyard spoke while handing Zhang Zhong a salted goose egg that was deliberately pickled and smelly. The smell was really not very good, but it couldn't resist Zhang Zhong's favorite. He pickled one egg and didn't make it very salty. It was so yellow that it could produce oil. Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan could do it, let alone pickle a salted egg.
Zhang Zhong didn't want to give himself a small meal, and his usual recipes were fixed every day. He couldn't eat them like that when he came here. When he saw what his son and daughter-in-law prepared, he could not refuse anyway.
There was a man next to him who had just picked up from the river where the water was dug out. He ate a bite of a pancake and drank a sip of wine. Zhang Zhong leaned over and said to the man: "My son and daughter-in-law have prepared some things for me. The two little kids are still ready, so you can try it too."
The servant followed him reluctantly and handed over a Roujiamo. He watched the man tremble and took it into his hands. He could only think that nothing had happened. He knew that the young master and the young lady didn't cook easily and only cooked food for some important people or relatives.
But as long as it is made by two little ancestors, the taste is definitely different from what you usually eat. Everyone in the inner courtyard like them has eaten it, but the most is less than three times, and the least is only once.
If you want such a good thing to give to an ordinary person, who doesn’t feel sorry for anyone who looks at it, everyone in the inner courtyard knows that if you say you are cooking, the food made by the young master and the young lady will taste the most. No matter how good the chef in Shuiyunjian is, the things you make are the same.
The worker was not polite, and smiled and took it into his hands, saying to Zhang Zhong: "Great Official, you can eat what your children make. No matter how bad they are, you are willing to eat it. I will try it. Hehe, I...Great Official, you are the most expensive thing in the capital, right? Why do I taste it better than when I celebrated the birthday of Zhang County Magistrate?"
This man found that it was different after only one bite. He ate quite a few bulgogi, and the taste was good, but compared to the feeling of meat in this bun, it seemed far worse. The meat inside was fat but not greasy, thin but not tiring, and it was so fragrant that it made people want to eat this thing every day.
Of course, the young master and the young lady are very capable. If the master can't eat it, it's mine. If you robbed it, you still have the nerve to praise it there? What kind of thing in Beijing? You can't eat this kind of thing in Beijing. You are too particular when you make it, and you can't buy it. What the young master and the young lady can measure it with money?
The people in the inner courtyard could only think about this in their hearts and dare not express it at all. If they really say it, they would directly turn from the current three-star chores to one-star.
Zhang Zhong didn't know that the people in the inner courtyard had so many ideas, waiting to eat the leftovers. Hearing the child being praised, he laughed happily and handed over another Jiamo in the inner courtyard with the reluctant attitude of the people in the inner courtyard.
"If you eat more delicious food, I made five of them in total, two of you, three of you, one more than you, there is no way. If Xiaobao and Juanjuan know that I have eaten less, the two children will be unhappy."
The people who worked were lit up their eyes and took the things without hesitation. The one who had eaten a bite began to eat hard, and the people in the inner courtyard could only pretend that they didn't hear it.
After waiting for the man to finish eating a Roujiamo, he handed the other to the chore of the inner courtyard and said, "Mr. Zhang is indeed extraordinary. When he was young, he deliberately touched your hand with his dirty hands when he was picking up things, and you had no reaction at all, as if he was normal.
The people in your inner courtyard obviously wanted to eat, but they still gave it out. They didn't say anything more. You have the final say in Luzhou. The master of the master is approachable and the servant of the inner courtyard strictly abides by the rules. No wonder the master kept praising Lord Zhang before. Lord Zhang really cared about the people, and the servant was also amazing and would not cause trouble for the master."
When Zhang Zhong heard this, he understood many things. This person should not be a local citizen, so how did he come here?
The people in the inner courtyard did not go to pick up the Roujiamo, so he was not so greedy. When he heard this person's words, he leaned against the master's ear and said a few words.
Zhang Zhong understood now, smiled and nodded, and said, "You are the person arranged by Mr. Zhang, Zhang Jiuling's second housekeeper? Not bad, a housekeeper can do such work, and Zhang Jiuling's family is not bad at all. In the future, he may be able to be a minister in the same palace. Go back and tell your master that building roads is costly and there is not enough money. Say hello and you will send the money here immediately.
The 10,000 guan was spent, and in half a month, my fleet in Beijing came, and there would be 30,000 to 40,000 guan. I could take out 10,000 guan and continue to send it over. If you have the opportunity to make the people in my hometown live a better life, don’t miss it. Life doesn’t have so many times."
