Please don't force me to be a god.
Chapter 100
After all this hassle, it was already noon.
Zhang Tian said: "Let's stop here today, let's go have breakfast."
Went to the living room, asked the two eunuchs, and found out that they didn't cook breakfast.
Su'er and others had changed their clothes and were waiting for Zhang Tian with some expectation.
Zhang Tian asked: "Don't you usually have breakfast?"
Xu Wen said: "Disciples have two meals a day, usually only lunch and dinner."
"Is it the same for everyone?"
Tiedong said: "Sir, we all have two meals a day."
"You usually consume a lot of energy in martial arts training, don't you feel hungry?"
Tiedong smiled and said: "It's okay once you get used to it."
"It used to be like this in the military camp. Only when we were fighting did we have three meals a day."
"Oh..." Zhang Tian recalled briefly.
When he was in the general's mansion, meals were served on demand, and he didn't pay attention to how many meals others had a day.
When he left Xiangyang, he needed strength to prevent emergencies on the road, so he also had three meals a day.
During these days in Lin'an Prefecture, Zhang Tian usually gets up late and rarely eats breakfast.
Occasionally, he gets up early and goes out to find snacks to taste, but he never noticed this problem.
No wonder Su'er, Xu Wen, Tiedong and others were so excited when he called for breakfast just now. It turned out that he thought he would take them out to eat.
Thinking of this, Zhang Tian said to the two eunuchs: "From now on, everyone in the family will change to three meals a day. You can prepare breakfast according to everyone's taste. By the way, you too."
"Thank you, Immortal!"
"But..." Zhang Tian looked at Tiedong, "You are tall and practice martial arts every day, why do you feel that you don't eat much?"
These days, Tiedong eats at the same table with everyone, and Zhang Tian feels that his appetite is not much more than his own.
Logically speaking, a martial artist cannot eat so little.
Tiedong looked a little shy and said, "My Lord, I can eat a lot or a little. Now that I don't need to fight, I can eat less."
"Can I eat a lot or a little?" Zhang Tian said unhappily, "Do you think I can't even afford to support a worker? It would be embarrassing for me if it gets out."
Tiedong's face suddenly turned red and he said anxiously, "My Lord, that's not what I meant."
If Zhang Tian hadn't gotten up early today, he wouldn't have discovered this problem.
The two eunuchs who served him had no experience in cooking for soldiers, so they cooked a little more for each person.
Although Tiedong had been with him for so long, he still didn't let go. He obviously felt that he hadn't made any contribution, so he didn't even dare to eat too much.
Seeing that the eunuchs didn't cook much, he didn't dare to ask them to give him extra food.
Zhang Tian said, "Okay, no need to say more."
"Let me ask you: based on my appetite, how many portions can you eat?"
Tiedong was a little embarrassed and hesitated to speak.
Zhang Tian said, "Three servings?"
Seeing that Tiedong didn't respond, he asked, "Five servings?"
"Hiss... Ten servings?"
This time, Tiedong finally spoke, saying, "My lord, I can't eat that much. If I eat as much as I want, I can only eat eight servings at most."
"Eight servings is not enough? You are quite modest." Zhang Tian said with a smile.
Tiedong was a little embarrassed: "My lord, I am a rough man who often marches and fights. Sometimes I have to eat for two or three days, so my appetite is a bit bigger."
Zhang Tian patted his shoulder and said, "It's good to have a bigger appetite, so you can eat as much as you want in the future."
"That set of swordsmanship is very difficult to practice. It's all calculated based on your limit. You can't eat too much."
"Let me ask you, if you count three meals a day, how many kilograms of meat and rice do you eat in one meal?"
Tiedong whispered, "One kilogram of rice plus one kilogram of meat, just eat until you are 80% full."
Zhang Tian couldn't help but stare and said, "You're still only 80% full? I even gave a gold and silver mine to the emperor. Do you think you can make me bankrupt by eating a few more bites?"
"From now on, I will cook you two kilograms of rice and two kilograms of mutton for every meal. As long as you can eat it, there is no upper limit."
Tie Dong was anxious and said, "No, Immortal."
"In Xiangyang, a kilogram of mutton costs 300 coins. Now that we are in Lin'an Prefecture and the New Year is coming soon, the price has risen to 600 coins. It's too expensive."
"So expensive?" Zhang Tian was a little surprised.
Because I often go out shopping to find snacks, I know the prices of this era.
Poor families only spend a dozen or twenty coins a day on food.
Chicken costs only thirty or fifty coins a kilogram. I didn't expect that mutton is 10 times more than chicken.
Xu Wen explained: "Master, mutton was not originally so expensive."
"It's just that since the imperial capital was moved from Kaifeng to Lin'an, the sheep-raising land in the north has been lost. Scarcity makes things valuable, and the price has risen sharply in recent years."
Zhang Tian asked: "What about pork?"
Xu Wen said: "Master, pork is cheap meat and has a foul smell. Generally speaking, people would rather eat chicken than pork.Eat pigs. "
After a quick search, Zhang Tian found out that although the technology of castrating pigs existed before the Eastern Han Dynasty, it has never been popularized, resulting in the general taste of pork not being very good.
Rich people don't like to eat it, and they can't sell it at a high price, and poor people are unwilling to raise it on a large scale.
It was not until the Ming and Qing Dynasties that the technology of castrating pigs became popular, and the smell of pork was removed, and the whole society began to eat pork.
No wonder Xu Wen always said "killing chickens and sheep" in Xiangyang City before, and never mentioned "pigs". It turned out to be this reason.
Zhang Tian saw Tiedong's face and said, "I said it's expensive, not because I don't want to spend money, but because I don't understand the price of meat and I'm a little surprised."
"Eat as much as you want, don't save for me."
"Otherwise, if it gets out that I can't even support a worker, you have no shame, but I still have."
Tiedong still felt a little distressed and said, "Shangxian, three catties of mutton a day costs 1,500 coins. Although Shangxian is not short of money, Tiedong can't waste it like this. ”
“I just said 6 jin a day.”
“Uh… Immortal, Tiedong needs to practice martial arts, so he should eat until he is 80% full. He really can’t eat 6 jin.”
“Okay, you can eat as you like.”
After saying that, he said to Xu Wen, “Do you take care of the housework? Don’t you know if Tiedong is full? Has he been paid on time? How much?”
“This…” Xu Wen looked guilty, bowed and saluted, “Master, I am ashamed.”
“Master, I have to take the trouble to deal with these trivial matters in life. I am to blame.”
“I used to be so focused on studying that I didn’t care about anything else. I have no experience in managing a household. So…”
Zhang Tian said, “Forget it, I can’t blame you. I put the money in Huandong’s custody. He is also responsible for not buying food. "
Before Zhang Tian came to this era, he lived alone and had a simple life.
I didn't expect that now there are only a few people in the family, but there are already a lot of trivial things to deal with.
No wonder those large families with dozens or even hundreds of people have a lot of family rules, like a small company.
In fact, when there are more people, there are more things to do. If there are no rules, there will be no order. I don't know how chaotic it will be.
Xu Wen said: "Master, my second uncle is in better health now."
"I wonder if Master is interested in letting him join the Master's door and help take care of worldly affairs?"
