Chapter 68 Calculation
Four days later!
In the morning, a creaking sound rang out, and the old gate of Wu'an County was slowly opened. A group of soldiers walked out of the gate weakly and stood on both sides of the gate of Wu'an County.
Zhu Changlie, who was sitting upright and resting, stood up, lifted the dry firewood and carried it behind him, and walked towards Wu'an County with great strides. He walked along the road to the back door of the Zhou family with a clear purpose. Manager Li had already stood at the back door waiting for Zhu Changlie.
"Manager Li," Zhu Changlie put down his dry firewood and bowed his hands to preach respectfully. He respected Manager Li. He came to Wu'an County every day to sell dry firewood, but he did not sell it all every day. Sometimes he would return empty-handed. Three days ago, the dry firewood could not be sold. When he left Wu'an County and planned to return home, it was Manager Li who bought his dry firewood and promised to buy the dry firewood he cut every day.
If dry firewood cannot be sold for one day, it will have a great impact on Zhu Changlie, who makes a living by chopping wood. Manager Li’s approach is undoubtedly a kindness.
"Do you have something to come here in person? Can you tell me bluntly?" The person who is usually responsible for receiving Zhu Changlie is not Manager Li. Manager Li has a low status in the Zhou family. He is an old man who comes with Zhou. He only buys dry firewood by chance. When he is waiting for him here in person, he must have something to do?
"I know I can't hide it from you," Manager Li was very satisfied with Zhu Changlie's attitude. The other party was so tactful, but he was much stronger than Zhou Hu. If Zhou Hu had no such knowledge, Manager Li would definitely not have such knowledge. Manager Li preached in a serious tone. "You know that my young master just came back from Yecheng. The lady saw that the young master had a hard time in his studies and wanted to hunt some wild game to replenish his body."
"I think of you right away,"
"Why is it difficult?" Manager Li asked involuntarily when he saw that Zhu Changlie did not express his opinion.
"No, it's just that if there is no game nearby the mountains that the lady wants to hunt, my mother will not dare to stay away at home."
"I know your filial piety, don't worry, my wife has no requirements for wild game,"
"There is no need to be sent to the mansion. I'll find someone to send it in by myself. You can go back early to prepare."
"Thank you, Manager Li," Zhu Changlie solemnly bowed. Although Manager Li did not explicitly propose remuneration, Zhu Changlie knew that the remuneration was definitely not low, which was far more than the income from chopping wood. He was not the only hunter who could enter the mountains to hunt wild game. Manager Li was able to choose him, which was what he valued.
Manager Li smiled and looked at Zhu Changlie's back as he left. It was not until Zhu Changlie disappeared into the street that he turned around and walked into the Zhou Mansion. After arranging someone to carry the dried firewood into the mansion, Manager Li came to the courtyard where Yang Qifeng was.
"Manager Li," Qiudong walked over slowly while yawning. Her eyes were half open and half closed, looking sleepy, obviously she had no rest.
"It's autumn and winter," Manager Li was extremely harmonious with the careless Qiu and winter, and was not dissatisfied with the other party's rude behavior at all. Who doesn't know the status of Chunxia and Qiu and winter in the mansion? The other party is just a maid and he is a manager, and his status is only below the wife and the young master. But he knows the specialty of Chunxia and Qiu and winter. Since the master brought the two back, he was named Maid, but who dares to treat them as maids? The master and wife value it, and now there is a young master.
Manager Li believes that if the two of them have conflicts, even if he is the old man brought by his wife, he will definitely be unlucky, rather than the girl in front of him. He still has this little vision.
"Didn't have a good rest last night?"
"Yes, the young master stayed up late to study again yesterday."
"Then the young master is up?" Manager Li knew about this. Since the reputation of hanging his head on the beam, no matter how he did it before, from that moment on, the young master has been hanging his head on the beam every night until late at night.
"Get up, the young master has instructed Manager Li to come directly if he comes over,"
"Well," Manager Li responded, and he walked straight into the courtyard. When he came to the room, Yang Qifeng sat upright behind the desk.
"Young Master, everything is handled properly," Manager Li described the scene he had just talked with Zhu Changlie. Yang Qifeng nodded slowly. Now he has successfully formed a relationship with Zhu Changlie. With Manager Li, he is a second-class Jinshi, a famous official in Jizhou, and a second-year teacher in Hebei, Zhu Changlie knew about his position as a teacher.
No matter how extraordinary Zhu Changlie was, he was limited by the current situation and family. He was in contact with the lower class. How could he know what happened in Yecheng? He would not know the reputation of the second Zhou Dynasty at that time. This would be shocked. Zhu Changlie must know that he had become a famous official and was sure to win the imperial examination, and he was also confident that he would be able to become a Jinshi.
If this is the case, the next scene should be his keen eye for a hero. He Shui spoke to Manager Li. "There are a few days left to invite Wang Jian and Sun Zheng to hunt together in the same year. At that time, Manager Li will arrange Zhu Changlie to serve as a guide,"
Autumn and Winter and Spring and Summer slowly walked into the outside. The two of them held the dishes in their hands, which were golden and exuded a faint fragrance. They placed them on the table in front of Yang Qifeng. They picked up the chopsticks they had put down. Yang Qifeng tasted it briefly. This plate of fried eggs, and the autumn and winter brought a plate of fried eggs with scallions. The cooking time they had been stir-fried eggs in the past few days was fried eggs, which was also the content of the cooking guide he wrote.
Of course, the taste is incomparable to the real world. The real world stir-frying dishes are seasonings such as MSG. The most basic real world salt is fine salt, which is several times more than that of the big man. However, it is extremely rare in the big man. Baking and cooking are two ways for the big man to eat. I can’t say that it is absolutely beyond the big man’s frying, but as a fresh way, it is certain to become popular.
"Fudong sit down and eat," Yang Qifeng looked at Qiudong's patient appearance and couldn't help but speak,
Qiudong did not answer, but looked at Chunxia. It was obvious that she knew Chunxia would stop her. Chunxia had done more than once. Seeing this, Yang Qifeng preached to Manager Li and Chunxia. "You can also try this cooking. Can you make the business of the restaurant at home go further?"
"Thank you, Master," Manager Li was also very curious about the golden fried eggs. Eggs are usually cooked, so it is the first time that the golden fried eggs are seen. If it weren't for the name of the dish just now, he wouldn't recognize that it would be an egg.
