In the field, Duan Wenjun was explaining to Zhao Yingguang and others the key points and precautions of the ditch work.
Mo Shoucheng held the long sword and lay on the grass nearby, holding up the wine bag and drinking sip after sip.
From time to time, he would glance in Duan Wenjun's direction.
"Master Mo, why do you think our young master would want to go to the fields with those farmers?" Duan Xiaoxing on the side also murmured while looking in the direction of Duan Wenjun.
"You don't even know, how could I know?" Mo Shoucheng rolled his eyes at him.
"Alas! The young master is now the leader of the four great talents in our Wangjiang County. He is a scholar." Duan Xiaoxing nodded. "He is mixed with these mud-legged people. If word spreads, it will definitely affect his identity. "
"Identity?" Mo Shoucheng smiled faintly, "Xiao Xingzi, I heard that you have been following your young master, but you haven't figured out his temperament! Do you think he is a person who values identity?"
Xiao Xingzi was stunned when he heard this.
I couldn't help but curse in my heart.
Yes, I have been with the young master for many years.
Since the first day he entered the Duan Mansion, he has followed the young master.
Before, no matter what the young master did, he would bring himself with him.
Even if he goes to Wangjiang Art Museum or Yihongyuan to find a girl, he will always take him with him.
I, of course, have an accurate guess as to what the young master is thinking.
It is also because of this that he is particularly liked by the young master.
But since being kidnapped by a gust of wind and brought back with a meat ticket, the young master seems to have become a different person.
Whether it's temperament or preferences, everything seems to be different.
If I hadn't been serving the young master all these years, I would have doubted whether this was the same person.
There is no doubt that it must be the same person.
Because Duan Xiaoxing has always been with the young master and never left.
However, the young master who encountered a huge change has completely changed into a different person.
Duan Xiaoxing also wants to stay with the young master and serve him well!
However, since Mo Shoucheng arrived, Duan Wenjun has been almost inseparable from him.
Every time he goes out, Mo Shoucheng is with him.
As for the book boy himself, he was either sent to take care of Chili Pepper, or he stayed at home to sort out the books.
Duan Wenjun rarely has him by his side anymore.
Unless the young master is reading in the study...
However, when the young master was reading, he did not dare to speak for fear of disturbing him.
Especially when the young master was writing and drawing in the study, making drawings that he couldn't understand, he didn't dare to disturb him.
Therefore, he had no chance to listen to the young master complaining and bragging all day long like before...
Thinking of this, Duan Xiaoxing couldn't help but glance at Mo Shoucheng, full of dissatisfaction.
The young master's temperament has changed drastically, and he is not often by his side. How can he guess what the young master is thinking?
On the other hand, you are a stickler, Mo Daxia, and are with the young master all day long. How come you don’t know what the young master is thinking?
identity?
Thinking about it carefully, the previous young master seemed to pay great attention to his own identity.
Because he needs to be strong in everything.
However, the young master now seems to really not pay much attention to it.
The previous young master did not distinguish between grains and livestock.
But now the young master not only knows how to farm, but also knows how to raise pigs.
Just look at the Jiabao plow, which has received unanimous praise from farmers.
Just look at that striped pig. This is the first time I have eaten such delicious pork...
Moreover, there are wine making, cooking, soap making, and many new things.
Young Master, I really don’t care about my identity anymore.
The high and mighty Wangjiang number one dude, Young Master Duan, is now mingling with farmers, bandits, and guards.
Although, this seems a little wrong and damages the identity of the young master.
However, it seems to be a good thing.
The current young master has been recognized and supported by more people.
People in Wangjiang offered sacrifices to the young master before because they were afraid of the Duan family and did not dare to offend the Duan family. They were forced to do so.
However, people nowadays truly believe in the young master.
When the deed of sale was signed that day, no one in Duanjiabao objected, and they all became slaves of the Duan family.
Those people who came from Moon Island were originally slaves of the Duan family, but many of them had immortality tablets set up in their homes for the young master.
The young master doesn't seem to value status anymore, but it seems that his status is higher.
Thinking of this, Duan Xiaoxing couldn't help but laugh.
On the grass, no one spoke.
Mo Shoucheng was drinking.
Duan Xiaoxing, looking at his young master...
At the end of July in the sixth year of Shunwu's reign, drizzle began to fall in the sky.
The originally hot weather finally showed a hint of coolness.
In the backyard of Duan's Restaurant, which has been closed for two days, Liu Qiang, Liu Chang and his son were busy nervously with a few apprentices.
"Son, this batch of fish must be smoked quickly!" Liu Qiang looked at the dried fish in front of him, then turned to Liu Chang and said, "You have to master the heat. Don't overcook it. , otherwise the oily taste will be wrong.”
"Dad, don't worry! Seven batches have already been produced, and this last one is the only one left. There will definitely be no problem." Liu Chang said with a smile, "Dad, why do you think the young master wants to get so many dried fishes? Not many people eat this fresh fish, but this dried fish is hard and woody, how can anyone buy it?”
"You know nothing!" Liu Qiang rolled his eyes at Liu Chang. "This is a technical job. The young master said that if it can be done well, it will be a steady stream of money. By the way, those ingredients and Chinese medicine you used to pickle fish last time , is the specific gravity a new formula used?"
"It's a new recipe." Liu Chang became a little impatient, "You've asked me more than a dozen times."
"Okay, okay, I know!" Liu Qiang said with a smile, "I just want to make sure! The Shaodong family has said that our Duan Family Restaurant will open the day after tomorrow, and I have to go over and set up the restaurant. The kitchen of this restaurant must be handed over to is you."
"Dad, I also want to follow you to the Duan Family Restaurant!" Liu Chang muttered, "How about you go talk to the young master's family again and ask me to follow you? I can't be the chef of the restaurant, so I will follow you as the second chef. The kitchen is more than enough!"
"What are you thinking?" Li Qiang hit Liu Chang on the head with a spoon. "The young master keeps you here, which means that he trusts you and wants you to help him look after this."
"Our wine shop is separated from the restaurant by a wall. All the customers have gone to the restaurant. How could there be customers coming here?" Liu Chang frowned. "Is it possible that the young master asked me to stay here and sell?" Isn’t it good to be a salted fish?”
Hearing what his son said, Liu Qiang glared at him again, "How can you and I guess what the young master is thinking? The young master must have his reasons for doing this."
In fact, Liu Qiang was also murmuring in his heart.
At first, he thought the same as Liu Chang. Since the Duan's Restaurant was renovated and was about to open, it was natural that the restaurant would have to be closed.
Such a big restaurant, such a luxurious restaurant, cannot be compared to this small restaurant.
Now that there are restaurants, there is no need for them to exist.
However, Duan Wenjun said that not only did he want the Duan Family Wine Shop to stay, but he would not sell banquets, he would also ensure that his business would not be worse than before. How could this be possible?
Moreover, during this period, he asked Liu Qiang and his sons to pickle and smoke so many dried fishes. Could it be that he wanted to change it into a salted fish shop?
These days, when fresh fish is everywhere, how can anyone buy salted fish?
Even if someone buys it, it is only occasionally. How can it support a facade?
