Song Beiyun

"I caught a cold on the bamboo bed after sleeping all night, but you refused to squeeze it, and you still said I was sick?"

"I told you to go to the guest room and you refused to go, you blame me? When I don't know what's going on in your mind?" Miao Yan yawned and walked to him in a nightgown, and patted his buttocks: "Get out of the way , I'm going to wash up."

"go together."

"Are you going to the bathroom too?"

After dealing with personal hygiene issues, Miaoyan went to invite Song Beiyun to have breakfast, but when he went over, he found that this fellow had already sat there to eat, not only eating, but also teasing a little maidservant while eating.

"Chunhua, you go out first."

"Yes... miss."

Song Beiyun smiled and said to the little maid, "Come and play with me later."

And Miao Yan kicked him on the leg: "Why are you not picky at all? You have to tease everyone, you are such a scumbag."

"I'm going to go to the smoky land of Lingnan to build a harmonious society. Why don't you let me see more of the world's fireworks?"

"It's early!" Miao Yan said in a nonchalant tone: "I said you were wronged, and you don't have to start being wronged the next morning, okay? This matter can be five years sooner, eight years or even ten years slower. When will it be possible for you to be an extremely human minister? What level are you now? From the seventh rank, I spend [-] guan to donate an official who is older than you."

"Is it really older than me? You saw it yesterday."

"We add a clause in the third chapter of the agreement, you are not allowed to say such strange words in front of me." Miao Yan raised a finger: "Did you hear that?"

"I heard..." Song Beiyun sighed, "You are so boring."

"It's fine if I'm interested in you. I don't want to have a baby before I'm 24." Miao Yan was also annoyed by him: "Eat quickly, and leave immediately after eating."

"I'm not leaving, I'll stay here for three days." Song Beiyun stretched out his fingers and gestured for a while: "After all, it's not good to be too high-profile."

"Then go find your princess."

"They went to play at the farmhouse outside the city. A dozen or twenty rich girls seemed to say that they would play for four or five days. Am I homeless? If you don't take me in, I can only go sailing."

Miao Yan frowned: "Don't go."

"Hey! You are too much, what capacity do you order me, tell me."

"partner."

"That won't work, not the partner." Song Beiyun waved his hand: "Change."

"You are so sorry." Miao Yan said dumbfoundedly: "Anyway, I don't care, if you let me know that you are going to take a boat, don't blame me for ignoring you."

"You..." Song Beiyun sighed, "How could you forget your roots?"

Chapter 148: On September 9, there is a road in Yushushan, you don't go

"I really don't know why I want to play backgammon with a person who studies computers. What's the difference between this and self-inflicted humiliation?"

Seeing Song Beiyun's dejected look, Miao Yan made a scissors hand, smiled and bent his eyebrows: "This has nothing to do with what you study, it's just intellectual crushing."

"Yes, yes, intellectual crushing. If you have the ability to compare alchemy with me, I want to see how you crush me." Song Beiyun said in disbelief: "Different majors have different thinking modes, why don't you How about rubbing a fireball with a law major?"

Miao Yan rolled his eyes sideways: "???"

"Do the math, I won't argue with you."

"Hey, why don't you argue with me? You lost 130 games to me and won 450 games. Calculated at five taels of silver per game, you owe me [-] taels." Miao Yan stretched his hand forward: "Just silver! Cash, quick!"

"I'll write you an IOU."

Song Beiyun wrote an IOU to Miaoyan with helplessness and humiliation, and seeing his good handwriting, Miaoyan said with a smile: "Actually, among the people I know, you are the one who combines the past with the future. The best person, even in those novels, it is difficult to find someone like you who can completely get away with the knowledge of this era."

"I can't help it, I want to survive." Song Beiyun stretched out his finger and wiped Miaoyan's lips, and with her lipstick on, he pressed a handprint on the paper: "I really need to face this era with future thinking. The ancestors of the family were chopped off after only three days."

"That's why you're good." Miao Yan said with a smile, "By the way, the exam is over in two hours."

Song Beiyun was taken aback for a moment, then jumped three feet high, picked up a piece of cake from the side and rushed out carrying Miaoyan's oil-paper umbrella, seeing his reckless appearance, Miaoyan leaned against the door and shouted: "Don't fall After death, I still hope to have a wife in the future.”

How could Song Beiyun have the heart to reply to Miaoyan, he was so happy playing here these past few days, he didn't care about the passage of time at all, if it wasn't for Miaoyan's reminder, he might have really missed the last chance to show his face.

Carrying an umbrella, he ran all the way to the outside of the examination room. Song Beiyun quickly hid in a small teahouse not far away, ordered a glass of wine and quietly waited for the examination to end.

These days, there are no scumbags who hand in the papers in advance. After all, apart from the possibility of passing the answers to people inside to cheat, if someone says that the last sentence is disrespectful to the article, there will be big problems.

So although there are nearly [-] scholars in the examination room, it is quiet outside.

The time passed bit by bit, and soon the first bell rang. This bell means that it is time to do the questions in the examination room. All candidates must put down their pens and take advantage of the last half hour to check to prevent If things like the name and place of origin are not written, there is also a last chance to check some uncommon and typos.

Not long after the writing bell rang, the second bell rang.This bell reminded the staff of the examination room that it was time to collect the papers, but no matter whether it was the first or the second person whose papers were collected, they were not allowed to leave the examination room, and they had to wait for the third bell to ring.

This process takes about half an hour, and the third bell rings after half an hour, which means that the candidates can leave one after another, but they must not go out in a crowd. The 120 people got up and left the examination room one after another. After they were all gone, it was the turn of the scholars from the Haizifang.

After batches of scholars came out, Song Beiyun hurriedly held up his umbrella, taking advantage of the flow of people, mingled with these scholars, and only allowed the students to stay and wait after they walked out of the examination room [-] feet away.

He just waited in that place, looking forward to the jade birth.

About 10 minutes later, Yusheng came out slowly, Song Beiyun saw him from a long distance, and when he walked in, Song Beiyun immediately went up to meet him.

"Brother Yusheng, how did you do in the exam?"

Suddenly hearing Song Beiyun's voice, Yusheng was taken aback, but when he turned around, he found that it was Song Beiyun, so he looked at him strangely, and said slowly, "It's strange to say that the questions in this rural examination are actually They are all questions that I have brushed, some of them are what you have mentioned, and some of them have been written on that paper."

Song Beiyun pursed his lips and nodded repeatedly: "Tihai tactics are amazing!"

But this time Yusheng didn't speak, just smiled and asked Song Bei to hold an umbrella for him, and the two walked forward slowly.

"Brother Kuang! Brother Kuang!"

At this time, a person suddenly ran over behind them, stuck his head in the umbrella, and smiled all over his face: "This time Mingfa is too easy, I... oh, Mr. Song, Mr. Song..."

"You take the umbrella." Song Beiyun stuffed the umbrella into Huang Anwei's hand: "What happened to Ming Fa Ke?"

"Oh, Brother Kuang and I have discussed the subject of Ming Law this time. I also used the example of Mr. Song's case in Qimen County as an example. Love makes people think twice, this time the title has been changed a lot, and some of the questions seem to be exactly the same as the case judged by Mr. Song. But God has manifested His Holiness."

Song Beiyun didn't speak. After all, he didn't take the exam. Although he knew the answers and knew that there would be exam content reforms this year, the answers were all answers to some dead questions. Because Yusheng took the Mingjing exam, the answers were all Mingjing. Yes, but Huang Anwei took advantage of it.

Because Song Beiyun's three cases in Qimen County are very representative, so Fu Wang, who made the question, naturally couldn't let go of such a question, so he took it out and put it in the Ming Law Department.However, Huang Anwei was not only a witness to these cases, but also discussed with Song Beiyun why he made such a judgment.

This is simply... a huge bargain.

"Master Song, today I will be the host, please brother Kuang and Master Song to have a good meal."

He shouted happily, and most of the scholars around him gathered in groups of three or four to discuss the topics of the main selection subjects, and the academic atmosphere suddenly became intense.

Song Beiyun observed one thing, that is, this examination should be the first reform, the highlight is a sub-subject, reformed in the imperial examination system of the Tang Dynasty, and then selected by sub-category, although there are still only three in the top three, but The scale of the winning contest is larger than in previous years. If there is no accident, one of the four people will win the exam this time. This probability is already extremely high.

And this kind of reform actually exposed the current situation of the great shortage of talents in the Song Dynasty, but it didn't matter, Song Beiyun didn't care.

After all... What are the recommended students arguing with them? He has never experienced any of the ten-year cold window, the Yingying Yingxue, and the fire in July. Returning for the exam as an official is tantamount to the job of a graduate student who has already started After the unit became a small leader, he went back to the examination room to take the college entrance examination. What is he competing with these children?What is there to argue about?

However, seeing Huang Anwei's joyful expression, he felt a little worried in his heart...

"Brother Song Xian."

Suddenly someone called him, and Song Beiyun turned around, only to find Beipo standing on the side of the road with an umbrella on his head, looking at him with a smile on his face.

Seeing this handsome young man, Song Beiyun was startled, but at this point, he couldn't hide, so he had no choice but to walk forward slowly.

"Brother Beipo." Song Beiyun clasped his fists and bowed: "Long time no see, but you're fine."

"It's good to be concerned about Brother Yu, Brother Yu."

After finishing speaking, Song Beiyun suddenly realized that he was running out of words. He quickly moved aside and introduced, "This is my brother Kuang Yusheng, and next to him is my classmate Huang Anwei."

Beipo hastily greeted the two of them separately, and then said with a smile, "Yusheng and I are already acquainted. Today, taking advantage of this good time, why not let me be the host and invite some future adults to have a few glasses of water in the human workshop. liquor?"

When Huang Anwei heard this, he immediately became happy. He bowed his hands to Beipo repeatedly: "Is this classmate also a scholar back then?"

Beipo is a good pretender, this is his nature and it is hard to change.After hearing this question, he raised his head quite proudly: "I have been enrolled, and now I am studying Luzhou Chronicles with Luzhou Xuezheng, and I will report to the Ministry of Rites soon."

"Yo... that's congratulations to Brother Beipo." Song Beiyun congratulated with a smile on his face: "Here, I wish Brother Beipo's grand plans in advance."

Although he is pretending to be aggressive, but look at others' pretending, admission, and now he is still one of the six departments.This is the configuration of a proper actor anywhere, the kind with an unlimited future.

"Guys, why are you in the rain?" Beipo laughed: "Why don't you go to a wine shop and have a few drinks while the weather is good?"

In fact, how should I put it, Beipo is actually a typical scholar. Although he is a little narrow-minded and likes to pretend, he is not as open-minded as Yusheng and a little gay, but generally speaking, his virtues are better than most of them. Those rascals are at least a class higher than the young master of the Jin family, at least Song Beiyun has never heard of him bullying others.

When the four of them came to the restaurant, the place was already full. Fortunately, the North Slope had already reserved a seat, so the few people had to take their seats.

"I heard that this world has the same owner as that day." Beipo introduced enthusiastically: "Both are the best wine restaurants and restaurants in Luzhou, but this world does not have private rooms, and takes a lively and magnanimous place. And this There's an interesting thing, that thing called the menu."

Huang Anwei was full of surprise: "What is the menu?"

The small scroll was unfolded on the north slope, and all kinds of dishes were densely written on it: "This is the menu, look at this one, it's..."

Song Beiyun coughed and got up at this moment: "You guys talk first, I'll make it easier for you."

As he said that, he came to the back hall, where the waiters, cooks, and stewards shouted one after another, but he leaned against the kitchen door and yelled inside: "Wait for my table, serve the best wine!" , and the amount of dishes should not be too much, send a few more dishes, and then send a gold and jade mantang."

"My boss, don't worry, you don't need to order such trivial matters."

Chapter 149: On September 9st, the Controversy Between Rain and Chaotang Breaks the Heavens

"Guest officers, this dish is a gift from the shopkeeper, everyone, please use it slowly."

"Thank you, the shopkeeper, for me." Beipo looked at the hard dishes that almost occupied the entire table in surprise: "What kind of dish is this?"

"This is our restaurant's signature dish, full of gold and jade." The clerk introduced it professionally: "The pot noodles outside the meat are cooked over a high fire until golden, which means gold. On the bottom, courgettes are wrapped in sugar to make the bottom, crisp and tender. Emerald is that jade. In the four surrounding tanks are clams from the East China Sea, mushrooms from Lushan Mountain, sheep from the grassland, and fruits from Heijue. , I hope that a few of you can show your strengths and make great achievements.”

"Oh... tsk tsk..."

Even Beipo was amazed, then raised his head and continued to ask: "How much would it cost to order this dish on weekdays?"

"Guest officer, only this envoy can eat this dish, and it's only for free and not for sale. The shopkeeper said that your table is full of people with good fortune, and he hopes that when you become rich and powerful in the future, you can still eat it." Let’s have another homemade dish.”

"Okay, okay..." Beipo was very happy, took out a money string and stuffed it into the clerk's hand: "Thank you, the shopkeeper, for me."

These words made the people around envious. This lottery is really beautiful. It is complete in southeast and northwest, and it is full of gold and jade. And judging by the amount, it is definitely a hard dish.

When the side dishes were ready, the waiter lifted the cover of the big bamboo, and the people around immediately stood up and looked over, and all the people who saw it were sighing.

This kind of exclamation obviously greatly stimulated Beipo's vanity. He laughed and raised his chopsticks: "I am the host today, so this first chopstick will be mine. Don't blame me."

This is of course not to be blamed, the owner itself should hold the first chopsticks, unless there are elders on the table, this is a rule that has not changed for thousands of years at the dinner table, who would blame this.

Beipo picked up a slice of fried golden meat and put it in his mouth. After chewing it lightly, the crispy sound came from his mouth immediately, accompanied by the fragrance of oil, which really achieved the effect of amazement.

"Ok!"

Beipo took a sip of the wine, nodded again and again, and said, "This meat is good! It tastes sweet and slightly sour, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, full of oily aroma, but when chewed carefully, it is full of meat juice, oily, meaty, and fragrant on the lips and teeth. .”

When he introduced this, the diners next to him swallowed their saliva one after another, and then he picked up a courgette. This courgette is a cucumber. It has no taste in itself, but it is drizzled with syrup. After the syrup cools, it is sweet and crisp. It's cool, and you can hear the crisp sound when you take a sip.

He chewed it carefully, and immediately clapped his hands and praised: "This courgette is tasteless, but the sugar coating on the outside is very wonderful. After the sweetness, the courgette is refreshing. The greasy meat is removed, and the sugar is lightened. It's very sweet. Very good."

As he spoke, he lightly picked up another piece of mutton and put it in his mouth. After eating, he slapped the table and applauded loudly: "I usually eat mutton, but this mutton is the only one I have ever seen in my life. It is tender but not raw, and it is full of meaty flavor But there is no fishy smell, the entrance is light and the aftertaste is long, good!"

He took a bite of each dish, and the applause became one piece, making those around who couldn't eat it greedy...

Of course, Song Beiyun naturally knew why Beipo was applauded, and he also naturally knew why the people around him were greedy.There are a few key factors in this so-called gold and jade dish, one is fat and the other is sugar.

Due to the constraints of the times, most ordinary people and even slightly better families can't eat any fats, especially animal fats.Sheep oil is expensive, cattle are not allowed to be slaughtered, and pigs that are not castrated do not gain much fat. Grease is very scarce in comparison.

This situation even lasted until the Qing Dynasty and even the Republic of China. Even in New China, the working people at the bottom had very few opportunities to touch oil in difficult times. Song Beiyun still clearly remembered what his grandfather told him at the time, it was the 70s of the twentieth century. Back in the [-]s, if the butcher gave me lean meat when I bought some meat for the Chinese New Year, there would be fights.

Therefore, oil is definitely a scarce resource in this era, and purely fried pork is a top-notch delicacy for people in this era. The concept of oily fragrance is actually derived from the memory of hunger.

The pigs in Xujia Jiangxi Farm are all carefully bred and castrated. They have a high oil yield and no pig smell, so they are naturally well received.

As for sugar, let alone, the method of boiling sugar was exclusively authorized by Song Beiyun to Xu Li. Sugarcane has been planted in a large area around Poyang Lake since last year, and there should be a wave in a few months The sucrose revolution, and the catering industry, which is the vanguard of the Xu family, is naturally the first place to use these new things.

The addition of high energy such as oil and sugar, together with various spices imported from India and Annan toast, can make Da Song enter the era of great food in advance, but it is a pity that corn, potatoes and peppers are still in America. Otherwise, Song Beiyun will 100% open the first national chain Kaifeng Cuisine, which is both sentimental and affordable fast food for ordinary people.

Of course, these things are not yet on a large scale. Song Beiyun's idea is to go to Fujian to build another farm. The scale is [-] to [-] times that of Jiangxi, or even higher.Anyway, Fujian is still relatively backward and belongs to the category of vast land and sparse population. No matter what, the farm should be established first. After all, the farm belongs to the royal family, and the royal family also has a share of the money earned. This is the death-free gold medal and it is also of high standard pass.

The other side dishes are also high-quality goods. Let alone the nuts imported from the Western Regions, they only need to be fried and then poured with a layer of viscous sugar liquid, which is enough.

As for seafood such as razor clams and clams, Xu Li is also developing extensively.In fact, this is the reason why Song Beiyun is qualified to participate in such a behemoth as the Xu family. Xu Li's father has almost handed over the family business to Xu Li since May this year. He is much more capable than he imagined, and Xu Li, like Song Beiyun, is an unswerving reformer.

The sparks from the collision of the two reformers have created the reputation of the No. [-] merchant in the Song Dynasty. Even if the Jin family did not have that catastrophe, the Xu family will definitely surpass them in a short time, because no one else has Song Beiyun in the mind of the Xu family. People who are full of advanced industrial models give them control over the industrial structure.

Forward-looking investment in business, as long as it is invested in agriculture and its derivative industries and don't be fooled by some messy projects, there is almost no loss.

It's no joke that people depend on food.

The meal made Beipo show off well, he looked extremely happy, and unknowingly drank too much.

This man, drinking too much makes it easy to do things that are absolutely impossible in normal times. Beipo just took Song Beiyun's hand and told his distress in tears. There is no other reason... It's just that Princess Ruibao ignored him.

"Brother Beipo, you are drunk."
