He is actually the son of the heartthrob Zhao Yun! Feng Yong finally got excited. No wonder he was so good-looking. It turned out that his innate genes were so powerful! Therefore, the ancient titles were troublesome, and people's names and characters had to be separated. If he had said his name was Zhao Guang that day, maybe Feng Yong would have known who he was on the spot.

"Uncle Zhao, has the new stove at home been built?"

Of course, when distinguished guests come to your home, you should treat them well. How do you treat them well? People regard food as their first priority, and eating, drinking and having fun. These two proverbs tell us that eating and drinking are the most important, especially food. Therefore, you must entertain your guests well and treat them well to eat and drink, so that you can express the host's hospitality.

One of the biggest reasons why Chinese cuisine has fascinated countless Waiguo people is because of stir-fried vegetables. As for the iron pot, which is indispensable for cooking, after the blacksmith pondered and pondered over it, he finally made it two days ago. As soon as the housekeeper brought the iron pot back, Feng Yong immediately asked someone to build a new stove according to the size of the iron pot.

"It was laid yesterday. It was left to dry for a day today and is still a little wet. I guess we have to wait before we can use it." The housekeeper really didn't understand why the host was so excited when he saw the greeting card, and his eyes were a little worried. .

"Then add some fire and bake it, and try to put the pot on the stand in the next two days."

You have to try it to know whether the iron pot is easy to use. Feng Yong really does not have enough confidence in the pig iron processing technology of this era. As for what to cook, you have to think carefully. After all, these days, there are too few food ingredients for future generations. At present, the only vegetables available at home are chicken and fish, and the vegetables are water spinach, with at most some cabbage added. How to combine these to create a good meal requires careful consideration.

Just when Feng Yong was thinking about how to make a table of delicious dishes, food prices in Jincheng, which were a bit weird compared to previous years, finally began to rise.

"What? The price of food has increased by five cents compared to the past few days?! Shopkeeper Li, why don't you go and grab it?" The man who came to buy food jumped on his feet and yelled, "This new food has just been collected, the price of food is not high." Even if it went down, it’s going to go up so much now! Is lard deceived and making shady money?”

Unexpectedly, the owner of the grain store folded his arms and sneered, as if the man in front of him was not scolding him. After the man finished scolding, he waved his hand and said like a fly: "The price is the same in the whole city. If you don't want to buy it, you can go to another store to see it." Look, if there’s any family that’s lower than mine, I’ll give you three measures of rice!”

The man let out a "poof" and said, "You are covered in lard, your father-in-law is short of three buckets of rice?" With that said, he walked out of the grain store with his chest puffed out and ran to another grain store.

After a while, the man came out of another grain store, cursing again, and walked to the third grain store.

When the man came out of the third grain store, he no longer had the same energy as before. He had his head half drooped, a grimace on his face, looking at the half bag of rice in his hand, and thinking about the grain store owner just now. He said: "Food prices are always going to rise, and they will continue to rise. What did you say? Why did they rise? Don't you know that there is a rebellion in the south? There is going to be a war. Do you know that there is a war? Why do you say it has to rise?" "

"Bah! This is such a bad world!" the man murmured, "We fight every year and people die every year. It would be better if we all die together."

The price of food had increased. When Butler Zhao found out, he also jumped in his small yard and scolded Li Ting for a long time. No wonder the evil man ran to Feng's house every day to buy food. It turned out that he had known that there was going to be a war in the south.

After scolding him, he went to Feng Yong with a grimace to apologize. When the wheat was harvested a few days ago, the master had said that he wanted to buy grain, but he vetoed it. Now that the price of grain has risen, he must have listened. As for the owner, at least he can make back the money he spent buying chickens and ducks, and his treasury will not be empty now.

"What's the crime? When I said I wanted to buy grain, I just said it casually. Just like what you said, Uncle Zhao, I just bought grain. Where should I put it?" Feng Yong, who was immersed in studying the recipe, said without looking up.

"The courtyard is empty, there are so many..." the housekeeper mumbled for half a sentence.

Feng Yong raised his head, looked at the guilty look on the loyal housekeeper's face, and smiled: "Okay, even if we buy it and empty it in the yard, our family only has so little money, and it is all used to buy grain. How much can we buy?" What should I do if I have the expenses to buy chickens and ducks?”

These days, generally speaking, only the rich and elderly have the right to eat meat regularly, so chickens and ducks are not as cheap as in later generations. Otherwise, the Feng family would not have spent money after buying those chickens and ducks. The silk space is so empty that mice can run away.

"Don't worry, food prices won't rise for long. Those who make shady money are fine if they are not greedy, but if they are really greedy, they will be unlucky." Feng Yong comforted his housekeeper.

"But my old servant heard that the barbarians in the south have rebelled and are about to go to war. Why won't the price rise soon?" The housekeeper was obviously a little bit over the top.

Can I tell you that Old Demon Zhuge has no intention of taking care of those barbarians in the south in the past two years?

Feng Yong was a little helpless: "Uncle Zhao, if the barbarians rebel, they don't necessarily have to go to war, right? They can still be appeased. The southern barbarians are rude, so you can appease them and teach them etiquette. Maybe if they learn it, they will know how to behave." Wrong, why don't you go against it? Okay, okay, you will know about the food price in a few days, so let it go now. If you are really fine, go and see which other family in Zhuangzi has children. If you have nothing to do, let them come into the house to help Yaomei. Yaomei can't stand the chickens and ducks we bought these days by herself."

"Master, are you going to spread this chicken-raising technique?" As expected, Butler Zhao's attention was diverted all of a sudden, and his eyes suddenly bulged out. In his opinion, this method of conjuring chickens and ducks to eat out of nothing is simply a magical magic. It is regarded as a treasure passed down from generation to generation. How can it be taught to others?

Communicating with ancient people is really troublesome!

Feng Yong sighed. It was impossible to keep this method of raising chickens secret for a lifetime, but it was possible to keep it secret for a while. When the time comes, Feng Yong will of course be happy to spread the word - note that the premise is that the time is ripe.

Besides, it’s not that he looks down on ancient people. In this era when even the most basic hygiene knowledge is not popular, if you let ordinary people do this, if you are not careful, there is almost a high probability that raising chickens will turn into raising flies. event. Feng Yong shuddered when he thought about the scene of flies flying all over the sky.

"I'm just helping to look after the chickens and ducks, why did it just spread out? Uncle Zhao, you've been watching for a long time, do you know what's going on?"

Again, it’s not that I look down on the ancients, but that you don’t even know the most basic knowledge. Even if I show you, what can you tell?

There are many people in the future who know the principles of atomic bomb explosions, but even if they go to a nuclear factory to see the production process, they still don't know what's going on. Even people from wealthy families like the housekeeper thought that Feng Yong had cast some unknown spell, let alone those farm boys who had never seen the world before?

The housekeeper nodded and responded: "That's true. How can the master's magical skills be learned by ordinary people? There are a lot of poultry bought these days. It's time to find some people to help Yaomei."

A person disappeared for more than half a year and then appeared in front of everyone. He went crazy for a few months and suddenly became completely different from the previous person. What was the reason? If you ask Feng Yong, Feng Yong will say that it is because he has traveled through time. There was no such thing as time travel in the Three Kingdoms era, so in the eyes of people at that time, there were only two explanations: one was that it was taught by gods and men in dreams, and the other was that it was all just a pretense in the past. The theory of gods and ghosts was popular in the Han Dynasty, so it is not too strange to have the first explanation. But compared to the first explanation, Huang Achou believed it was the second explanation, because the Feng family was not originally from Shu. They claimed that they fled to Shu because of the war in the north. The world has been in chaos for decades. Such a long period of war can smooth out too many things and prevent others from tracking down those people and things that have disappeared in the war.
