A few more days passed.
Plum Village and the villages around the Han Village also knew that the Yanhuang College cafeteria was buying locusts. Moreover, it was three copper coins per catty. Wasn't that picking up money?
Therefore, the "army" of locusts increased several times. The number of locusts that the college cafeteria received was even more overwhelming!
This time, even if all the teachers and students in the college ate to their hearts' content, they wouldn't be able to finish it.
However, Li Zexuan was already prepared for this situation.
On this day, the Zuixian restaurant in Chang 'an City's West City quietly released a new dish called "Meteoric Success".
"Yo! Shopkeeper Liu, there's a new dish again! Meteoric Success, that's a good name! "
When it was close to noon, a customer came to the Immortal Indulgence Inn, and he inadvertently glanced at a new dish on the menu. When he focused his eyes and saw the words' Meteoric Rise 'written on it, he couldn't help but laugh.
"Hey! Isn't this Old Master Wang? Long time no see! "
Shopkeeper Liu's face was full of wrinkles. He first greeted him, then replied, "This Meteoric Success is a new dish invented by my Lord Jue. It was originally only available in Yanhuang College, and the students were full of praise for it! My Lord Jue felt that this delicacy should be shared with everyone, so Old Master Wang, you're lucky today! "
That diner was obviously shocked. "Wow! It's actually a new dish invented by Lord Jue, and only the college could eat it before. I'm really lucky today! "
He saw that there were still empty seats in the restaurant. Therefore, he said to Shopkeeper Liu, "Shopkeeper Liu, give me a portion of gnawed chicken, a portion of Dongpo meat, and a portion of Meteoric Success and a pot of Gentle Beauty!"
Obviously, this person was also a rich person. He didn't even ask for the price of Meteoric Success and directly asked for a portion.
Shopkeeper Liu chuckled and replied, "Alright! Old Master Wang, please take a seat. The dishes will be served soon! "
A moment later, the dishes were served. The golden and tender Meteoric Success looked very appetizing just from its appearance. The moment it was served, it immediately attracted the attention of many people.
That diner swallowed his saliva and picked up his chopsticks to eat the Soaring Star. As soon as the crispy and soft "Soaring to Heaven" entered his mouth, his mouth was immediately filled with the aroma of eggs and meat. There was also a tinge of numbness. This customer couldn't help but widen his eyes and exclaim repeatedly that it was delicious. He simply couldn't stop!
"Oh! Delicious ~! It was really delicious ~! There was a salty smell, a fragrant smell of fried oil, a numbing smell, and a meaty smell. Manager Liu, what kind of meat is used to make this' Soaring to Prosperity '? Why is it so fragrant ~? "
After wolfing down a few pieces, the customer smacked his lips and yelled at Manager Liu. "Hey, Manager Liu, you're so kind.
"Hey! This is our Drunken Immortal Inn's secret recipe. Lord Jue has instructed us not to spread it out. Old Master Wang, please don't blame us! "
Shopkeeper Liu chuckled and replied.
Although those who had eaten Soaring to Prosperity would inevitably know that it was made from locust meat, Li Zexuan wanted to hide it for as long as possible. When the day came when he couldn't hide it anymore, they would already be addicted to the delicacy of Soaring to Prosperity. They wouldn't be able to give up even if they wanted to! That was the result that Li Zexuan wanted!
"Hehe, Manager Liu's words are too serious! Since it's a secret, it's only right that you don't say it ~! This old man was just asking casually. The most important thing is that this' Soaring to Prosperity 'is delicious. That's enough! "
The customer said with a face full of smiles.
"Manager Liu, give us two plates of Soaring to Prosperity too ~!"
"Give us two plates here too ~!"
When the surrounding people heard this customer praising the delicacy of Soaring to Prosperity, they all began to order as well.
"Yo ~! Soaring to Prosperity? That's a good name! Manager Liu, give us two plates ~! "
While they were talking, Liao Xifan walked in with Zhang Jingyang. Liao Xifan smiled and said, "Don't worry.
The two of them were old acquaintances of the Drunken Immortal Restaurant, so there was no need for formalities. Manager Liu responded and asked the waiter to bring them to their seats.
"Brother Liao, now that we're on Lord Jue's boat, we're really soaring to Prosperity with a bright future ~! Your dishes are really good, it suits the occasion ~! "
After taking their seats, Zhang Jingyang said with a flushed face. It was obvious that he had been very happy recently.
"Hehe, this is just the beginning. I believe that Lord Jue's future achievements will definitely be more than this. The money that we invested will definitely be several times or even tens of times the returns ~!"
Liao Xifan said with a smile.
At the same time, he felt that it was a pity that Feng Zhihua, who went out to sea with the imperial court's fleet, hadn't returned yet. Because once the fleet returned, he would be able to invest more money and earn more money.
"Hehe ~! Brother Liao, you have good taste ~! "
…
"Hey, Little Xuan, what are these things that you put in the yard? They look like eggs, but why do you have so many eggs?"
Saturday, Yanhuang College's day off.
In the afternoon, Cheng Chumo went to Li Zexuan's courtyard in Yunshan and saw that the cement ground in the yard was filled with densely packed spherical things. They looked like eggs, but there was a layer of gray substance on top of them, which looked a little strange. Cheng Chumo squatted on the ground and touched it, then asked loudly.
This guy didn't return to Chang 'an during the holidays and just stayed in Yunshan. Although he could buy toilet paper now, Cheng Chumo still wasn't used to living in the "old house" in Chang' an!
Old Cheng's family had a courtyard in Yunshan that was gifted by Li Zexuan. There was nothing in it before, but Cheng Chumo didn't get used to living at home last week. After returning to the academy, he began to order people to move furniture in. Now that it was habitable, this guy became Li Zexuan's neighbor and would visit from time to time.
"Put it down, don't touch it ~! This is an egg with lime. I took it out to dry today. Chou Niu, don't mess around ~! "
Li Zexuan walked over and kicked Cheng Chumo's butt in a bad mood as he said.
To make century eggs, the fresh eggs were placed in a pot or basin filled with lime paste. After the eggs were dipped in lime, they were taken out and mixed with chaff or sawdust. Then, they were placed in a jar and sealed. Generally speaking, it would take about seven days in spring and autumn, and four days in summer. When the time was up, they should be taken out to dry in the jar.
This time, the century eggs that were being dried in the Li family's courtyard were the ones that had been rolled out last week.
"Ah ~! It's really an egg ~! Oh my god! I didn't believe it when I heard that your family was buying eggs a while ago, but I didn't expect it to be true. Xiao Xuan, why did you get so many eggs? You even added lime. Are you trying to hatch chicks? "
Cheng Chumo stood up, looked at Li Zexuan, and said stupidly.
Li Zexuan's face was full of black lines. Hatch chicks? I'll hatch NMLGB, where have you seen chicks hatched like this?
