I, the fox clan, Arita!

The blueprints in the optical brain are the results of the predecessors summarized by the scientists on the Lingshu home planet, and of course they are more advanced than the current technology of the Daqing Dynasty.

"Uncle Li, do you think this can be done?" Ling Shu asked Carpenter Li.

Yuzhang also came over to look at the drawings at this moment, and after a glance, he stared at Lingshu in surprise, never expecting that Lingshu could draw such complicated drawings.

Carpenter Li looked at it carefully again, and pondered: "Some of the parts here need to be made of iron. I'm afraid I have to go to the iron shop to ask. I can make the wood part without any problem."

"Money is not a problem," Ling Shu said, "I've given you the blueprint. If you need anything, you can ask the blacksmith to do it. It's just a matter of time."

Carpenter Li said: "Don't worry, I will keep this blueprint in my place and I promise to keep it safe, and I will never let others steal it! I don't want you to give me the money. I'm afraid I can only do it in my life for a car with such an exquisite structure." Doing it this time, it is all my own thoughts, and I will return it to you when the blueprint is finished."

"How can I do it without paying?" Lingshu knew that it would not be that simple to make this wheelchair. Even if he compared the drawings, but now there is no machinery, it is all purely manual work, and some data has to be calculated and tried many times. In order to meet the standard, I am afraid that a lot of materials will be consumed in the process, and it will not work without money.

Lingshu took out a small ingot of five taels of silver from his sleeve and handed it to Carpenter Li, "You take it first, and then tell me if you don't have enough. Don't push it. If you don't want to take this silver, return the blueprint to me. I'll find someone else to do it."

That won't work!

Carpenter Li is in a hurry, he is willing to give up money just to make this chair, and now the blueprint is in front of him, if Lingshu doesn't let him do it, he might not be able to sleep well for days and nights!

So Carpenter Li hurriedly took the silver ingot from Lingshu, and said, "Okay! Just wait, uncle will make it for you soon!"

"Then I will thank uncle first," Lingshu said with a smile, "waiting for your good news."

Leaving this matter to Carpenter Li, Lingshu also felt a big stone in his heart, and walked home in a good mood.

Yuzhang asked him, "Did you make this chair for Master Wei?"

"Of course," Lingshu nodded, and then said, "Don't tell him! I want to surprise him."

"In my capacity, I can't talk to Young Master Wei at all, so you can rest assured," Yuzhang said, then changed the tone and asked Lingshu, "Do you think there is any way for me to stay by Master Jiu's side? "

Lingshu:? ? ?

Lingshu looked at Yuzhang in a daze: "You ask me this kind of question? Why?"

Yuzhang really just met himself, okay?Wouldn't it be embarrassing to ask such a question?

"Because I think you are smart enough to be able to draw such delicate and complicated drawings," Yuzhang said, "Also, even if you knew about me, you didn't look down on me like others."

Brother, you misunderstood. I didn't come up with the drawing, but copied it from the data.

As for the thing between you two men, I've seen it a lot before, of course I don't think it's strange!

Yuzhang said again: "The person closest to me is Master Jiu. Apart from him, I have no friends. With my identity, I can't ask others about many things..."

So it’s hard to come across someone who I don’t discriminate against you, who is about the same age as you, and you think I’m more flexible, so you ask me this kind of question?

Lingshu can understand Yuzhang's thoughts very well.

He was already worried about the young man's situation, so he thought about it for a while, recalling some emotional chicken soup he had seen on the orc planet, and then he suggested: "If you want to stay by his side, you have to be a good friend to him." Useful people can help him in his career, and even make him feel that his life will be a mess without you, so he will naturally be reluctant to send you away."

A bit like a senior private secretary, or a housekeeper?

Yuzhang frowned, not quite understanding: "Then what should I do?"

Lingshu said: "You can't serve people for a long time with your face. You should understand this and I won't say more. Serving tea and water, serving him to dress, eat and watch the night, the Shen family must be casual. A servant can do a good job, so he doesn't have to use you, does he? He doesn't need a bed warmer, let alone a servant, what is he lacking? Shopkeeper Shen who came with you, you know? Shen What is missing is someone who can make money for him."

"Think about your Shen family. Are accountants and shopkeepers more valued by the masters? You need to have a solid ability. It is impossible for Shen Jiushao to let you manage the accounts. I think if you ask him for a small shop, say If you want to run your own business, with how much he cares about you right now, he probably won't refuse, even if you lose money every day with that shop, I'm afraid he will just laugh it off."

"If you really want to do something, go to him and ask for a shop, and learn to manage it yourself. If you don't know how to manage it, ask him for advice. I guess he should be happy to teach you to make you happy, but you You can't lose money if you take this shop, you can only make money, and Shen Jiushao must see that you are a malleable talent."

Lingshu felt that a transparent person like Yuzhang, although favored by Shen Jiushao, was very clear-headed and knew what he wanted. As long as he was willing to learn, running a small shop would not be a problem.

Yuzhang still frowned, nodded thoughtfully, and said, "What you said is very reasonable, but on weekdays, Lord Jiu never told me about his business affairs, and he would not bring it with him when he had serious matters to discuss." Me, the Shen family has too many properties, and I don't know what kind of business is more suitable for someone like me who doesn't know anything in the capital now, so I'll find a way to find out when I go back to the capital."

"Actually, if you really want to do it," Lingshu said, "I have a way to make sure you can make money."

"What is it?" Yuzhang's eyes lit up immediately, and he looked at Lingshu expectantly.

Ling Shu smiled and said, "What are you in a hurry for? Let Shen Jiushao promise to give you a shop before it's too late. By the way, if you ask him for a more prosperous location, it's best to go to a place that rich people often go to." On the street."

"That's right." Yuzhang's joyful mind slowly calmed down.

The two returned to Yan's house, just catching up with the carriage of "Shengxiangju" to pull the last batch of goods. Yan Dachuan was directing in the yard, while Shen Qingsheng was watching and counting. The "Shengxiangju" in Dingchun Town The new shopkeeper also came, and when Lingshu saw it, he hurried to help, so Yuzhang went to the house to look for Shen Ziyue.

This time, Weihuo was busy for the whole noon, and Lingshu didn't have time to make lunch for Wei Xiuya, so he had to randomly fry a plate of eggs and fried rice and bring them over. Others, such as Lin Heyi and Shen Ziyue, he I don't care about it, the big pot of rice cooked by the godmother is actually not bad, anyway, they like to eat it or not.

In the middle of the afternoon, things were finally done. Lingshu settled the last bill with "Shengxiangju", and went back to the house to add up the total with his parents, brothers and sisters-in-law, and calculated the food made by these hawthorns this time. The wages of the helpers, various expenses, and the money for building the house earned a total of nearly 200 taels of silver.

The family closed the door, and the silver ingots and pieces of silver were piled up on the table. The old couple of the Yan family stared at the silver in front of them dumbfounded.

On weekdays, "Shengxiangju" came to collect the goods, sometimes it was Lingshu's money, and sometimes it was Yan Dachuan's, and they didn't put it together. Today all the payments for the goods were settled, and the two brothers took the money. The income of these days is pooled together.

Yan Youfu and Chen Guihua usually don't pay attention to accounts and just work. They know that they can earn money from food made from hawthorn, but they never expected that they can have so much money!

"This, this, why, why are there so many..." Yan Youfu's beard was trembling, he just felt as if his mind was exploding, and he was willing to kick his legs to death now!

Chen Guihua suddenly came back to her senses, wrapped up all the silver on the table with a cloth in a panic, and said, "Hurry up, put it away! No one can see it! Another day, another day, let's take these to the county bank for exchange." Silver ticket! Dachuan, you and Xiaoshu go separately, and each of you takes 50 taels. There won’t be any robbers on the way, right? Wait, I see that Mr. Wei has a guard, can you ask him to lend it to us? Let's give him money..."

"Mother, don't worry, sit down, sit down," Ling Shu hurriedly comforted her godmother, and pulled her to sit down, "Take the money and lock it in the box first, I may need to use it in a while, now Master Wei is here Our family is recuperating, and we won’t be able to leave for a while. With his guards around, no one dares to do anything to our family. Calm down, we will earn more by selling those bean sprouts in the future, and you won’t have to I'm going to work, I'll hire a few girls to take care of you, mother, you can be a wife with peace of mind! Buy some more birds for dad, dad is like the master of a rich family, don't worry about anything, just carry a bird cage every day Just walk the bird."

What Lingshu said made Chen Guihua laugh, and the tension just now disappeared. She raised her hand and hit Lingshu, and laughed and scolded: "Stinky boy, what are you talking about! Mother doesn't want to be served, let the folks They didn’t laugh at me when they saw it.”

"I'm serious!" Lingshu smiled with crooked eyebrows.

Chen Lanzhi also jokingly said: "That's right, mother, from now on Da Chuan and I will work more, earn more money, and honor you and your father."

Yan Dachuan immediately supported his daughter-in-law, nodded and said, "Lanzhi is talking about this."

The little girl Wan'er still doesn't quite understand what the adults said, she only knows that her family has a lot of money now, and she raised her little hand to imitate her parents' words and said crisply: "Wan'er has to work when she grows up!"

Lingshu hugged the little girl onto his lap, tapped Wan'er's nose, and said with a smile, "We Wan'er doesn't need to work, and Wan'er will be a little lady from now on!"

"What is Miss?" Wan'er asked with her eyes wide open and her head tilted.

"It's just that there are new dresses to wear every day, beautiful head flowers to wear, and a lot of delicious food!" Ling Shu said.

"I want to be a young miss!" The little girl Wan'er was full of ambition immediately, then bit her finger, and asked Lingshu seriously, "What about brother?"

Lingshu touched Wan'er's head and said, "Brother is the young master, and he has new clothes to wear, and he can read a lot of books!"

"Okay, big brother will be the young master!" The little girl was relieved after hearing this.

Chen Lanzhi smiled and said, "Our Wan'er has grown up, and we know that we miss my brother."

Wan'er playfully made a face at her mother.

Yan Youfu was so happy from ear to ear at the moment, imagined himself carrying the birdcage, followed by two young men, walking on the street swaggeringly, it must be a good feeling!

Oops, Yan Youfu stroked his beard and thought, we must have done a lot of good deeds in our previous life, so we can pick up Lingshu, the God of Wealth doll, in this life.

"Okay, let's make a fire and cook. It's agreed to give extra meals to the folks. Mother and sister-in-law will come and help together. That young master Shen Jiu is still waiting to eat the dishes made of bean sprouts." Ling Shu got up and said.

Chen Guihua locked all the money in a big box, she didn't take the key herself, but gave Lingshu and Yan Dachuan each a key.

Lingshu didn't refuse, put away the keys and went to the kitchen with everyone to get busy.

Because he planned to have extra meals for dinner early in the morning, Lingshu asked the folks who went to the town to do errands to bring back a lot of meat, some dried goods, spices for seasoning, and some old wine, and went to the village where there were fish They went to buy a few fat fish.

The extra meals for the helpers are mainly prepared by the godmother and sister-in-law, his godfather and Yan Dachuan help each other, and Lingshu only cares about the few distinguished guests at home. He pulled himself together and made several dishes with green bean sprouts as the main ingredient.

When it was time for dinner, I borrowed the tables and chairs from the neighbors' houses and set up several tables. All the villagers ate in full swing. Ling Shu went back and forth to bring the prepared dishes to Wei Xiuya's room. Originally, Yuzhang still wanted to help, but Lingshu tried to persuade him to go away.

Lin Heyi showed up on time when it was time for dinner, except for checking Wei Xiuya's pulse every three days, and occasionally changing the medicine, he didn't see anyone at other times.

"Hey, there are so many dishes today!" Lin Heyi rubbed his hands, sat down first without the slightest bit of politeness, raised the wine glass in front of him and said, "Sit down quickly, sit down, come on, come on today It's so lively, let's have a drink together first!"

Now the cups containing the wine are not made of bamboo, but made of white porcelain. Wei Yuanwu, the housekeeper of the Wei family, sent them here, along with a complete set of white porcelain tableware. The dishes on the table are all made of white porcelain. White porcelain tableware.

Lin Heyi was the oldest person in the room. He was already highly respected and possessed superb medical skills, but no one would mind if his temper was casual and weird, so everyone in the room took their seats one by one.

Wei Xiuya, Ling Shu, Shen Ziyue, Yuzhang, and Cheng Yi, Lin Heyi beckoned again, calling Wei Bawei, Jiu Weishi, and Wei Shi. The three guards had Wei Xiuya's permission before they dared to Sitting carefully at the edge of the table.

After a table of people drank wine together, Lingshu stood up and introduced the dishes on the table to everyone.

"This one is the simplest. Stir-fried lean shredded pork with bean sprouts. Of course, vegetarian stir-fry is also fine. I didn't make clear stir-fry because I was afraid that it would be too much to eat," Lingshu said. There are too few dishes at this time, so we can only add some shredded cabbage, black fungus, and potato. If it is summer, add some red and green fresh peppers. If you are afraid of being spicy, it will be much better to remove the white shreds in the middle. The taste and color will also be better. Mr. Lin, no one else has eaten it yet, so you should eat less."

There were peppers in the Daqing Dynasty, but there were few people who planted them and even fewer people ate them. Anyway, when Lingshu first came here, he had never seen peppers for sale in Dingchun Town, but there were dried peppers in the spice shop. Dried red peppers are very expensive. Later, Lingshu bought some when he earned some money. He doesn't usually use them for cooking, but occasionally uses them to enhance the flavor.

Lingshu continued to introduce: "Spicy boiled fish fillets, put red peppers, it tastes very spicy, and bean sprouts are placed under the fish fillets, I don't know if you are used to eating it, if you can't eat it, don't force it. Vegetarian fried bean sprouts can also be made vinegary, hot and sour, and they all taste good.”

A group of people followed Lingshu's hand to look over, and saw that the large white porcelain bowl was glowing red, with white fish slices floating on it, piled up in a pointed shape, and some sesame seeds were sprinkled on the top, giving off a delicious smell. When it spreads out, it makes people drool when they haven't eaten it.

Lingshu pointed to another plate and said, "This is noodles with fried sauce. The noodles are hand-rolled by my mother. The sauce on top is minced meat. I also added some wild mushroom powder to it according to my own taste. When eating Just mix it well."

The plate was very big, and Lingshu specially used a large plate. There was only a small bowl of noodles, which was placed upside down on the plate. The noodles were poured with deep-fried sauce, and around them, they were neatly arranged in a circle to be cooked. The green sprouts are all facing outwards, and the shape is very beautiful.

"If it's the season when there are many dishes, there are some other dishes here," Lingshu said, pointing to another bowl, "Soup, bean sprouts and big bone soup, I don't need to talk about this. Bean sprouts It can also be made into a vegetarian vegetable soup with other dishes.”

"These few dishes are not made of bean sprouts," Lingshu laughed again, "We really can't find any special ingredients here, I hope Master Shen Jiu will understand, these are meatballs made of lotus root, stewed Let’s take a look at the lotus root box, dip it in vinegar and eat it, and fry it while it’s still hot.”

"Squirrel fish," Ling Shu said, and couldn't help but glance at Wei Xiuya, "Your food."

Wei Xiuya looked at Lingshu with a smile in his eyes, feeling very happy in his heart.

Wei Ba on the side couldn't help but look at Ling Shu, he was the only one on this table who had seen the dish of squirrel fish before.

At that time, when Steward Wei asked Lingshu to cook for his young master, Lingshu cooked this dish for the first time, but he didn't serve this dish to the young master afterwards.

"This is the second time I've made squirrel fish," Lingshu said, "The first time I made it at your house."

"Oh?" Wei Xiuya raised his eyebrows and said unexpectedly, "Why haven't I seen it before?"

Lingshu was a little embarrassed and said: "At that time, I came to cook for you for the first time. I thought that the squirrel fish was beautiful in shape, and it was sour and sweet, and it would be appetizing. It was brought to your door. I saw you chased a young man away. come out……"

Wei Xiuya also remembered what happened that day, and coughed lightly with his fist against his lips.

Shen Ziyue smeared Wei Xiuya with a smile on his side and said, "It's still easy to drive away the boy, he was much more aggressive when he had a bad temper before."

Wei Xiuya turned cold, and glared at Shen Ziyue, "Is this how you act as an elder?"

Ling Shu blinked and asked in confusion, "Elder? Whose?"

Wei Xiuya didn't introduce Shen Zi to Lingshu yesterday when Shen Zi was getting closer. He saw that Wei Xiuya treated Shen Jiushao like a friend, and Shen Jiushao was also quite young. Lingshu always thought that the two of them were very close friend.

Shen Zi smiled and said, "Don't you know? I am his uncle."

Lingshu:! ! !

This uncle is too young!It really doesn't look like an elder at all!

Yuzhang quietly pulled down Shen Ziyue's sleeve on the table.

"Oh, stop talking!" Lin Heyi interjected, "Hurry up and eat! The food is going to be cold!"

After hearing what he said, everyone picked up chopsticks one after another.

Cheng Yi ate all the dishes on the table one by one, and praised: "Little brother, this skill is so ingenious! A single 'Lv Ruyi' dish can make so many tricks, I am really a big brother I'm ashamed."

Lingshu just waved his hands and said, "I do low-level work. How can I read books well like Brother Cheng, and can teach and educate people? Our Liangliang can recognize a lot of words these days!"

"Brother Ling, there is no distinction between high and low in any job. Everyone in the world is a Taoist, a farmer, a businessman, a scholar is expensive, and a businessman is cheap, but I don't think so," Cheng Yi shook his head and said, "These four should be equally important. Nothing. If you say such self-deprecating words in front of your brother again, don't blame me for being angry. "

Lingshu scratched his head in embarrassment. He was just being humble casually. He really didn't feel that what he did was lowly. It's just that although Cheng Yi called him brothers and sisters, he didn't dare to be too casual. Why? It is said that everyone is a teacher, and they teach Liangliang. Lingshu used to go to school on the orc planet for more than ten years. He really has a habit of being in awe of the profession of teacher.

However, he was very surprised. He didn't expect that Cheng Yi, as a person of this era, would have such advanced consciousness. It's a pity that his ideas are not in line with the current ruling class ideas.

Lingshu hesitated for a while, but couldn't help reminding: "Brother Cheng, I think your idea is good, but when you go to the township examination, you must not write these things."

Cheng Yi suddenly laughed, looked at Lingshu, and sighed sincerely: "Brother Ling, it's a pity that you don't take part in the scientific examination."

Ling Shu finished ordering, lowered his head to eat, and didn't see Wei Xiuya looking at him with fiery eyes.

On the contrary, Shen Ziyue asked Cheng Yi with great interest: "Brother Cheng, don't you really think businessmen are low?"

"If there were no businessmen traveling from north to south to do business," Cheng Yi ordered the dishes on the table, and then pointed to the furnishings in the room, "We would never see any of these things, let alone use them."

Shen Ziyue immediately raised his wine glass and said, "Brother Cheng, I'm sure you are my friend!"

Although the Imperial Merchant's Shen family was wealthy, in the eyes of the scholars, they smelled like copper. Since ancient times, merchants were considered the most humble occupation in the world.

Regardless of the fact that Shen Ziyue enjoyed himself among the children of the aristocratic families in the capital, and was usually called a brother and brother, in fact, those officials and young masters looked down on him to some extent, and they only made friends with him for the Shen family's money.

It was the first time for Shen Ziyue to meet scholars who did not despise business, so he naturally found Cheng Yi very pleasing to the eye.

Cheng Yi smiled and bowed his hands to Shen Ziyue, and also raised his glass and drank it down.

The two of them seemed to have found a common language, and they had a great time chatting for a while, and they exchanged cups and drinks, and Cheng Yi's face turned red after a while.

Yuzhang looked anxiously at the side, he still had something serious to talk about, Master Jiu didn't promise him about opening the shop, only said to ask Lingshu first.

Seeing that the two of them were about to get drunk if they continued to drink like this, and would not remember anything by then, Yuzhang couldn't help snatching the cup from Shen Ziyue's hand, and said angrily, "Did you forget something? You promised Pass mine!"
