Chapter 4 Lean Meat Congee

The rice at home shouldn't be called rice. In my previous life, I only ate poultry. Now I don't know how to make it. After thinking about it, I soaked it in water and prepared to make porridge.

There wasn't enough rice to cook, there wasn't much millet left, and the current situation was that we couldn't finish our meal.

"Damn, everyone who traveled through time was the second generation of rich people. It's a good thing that I've become a loser!" Liu Fan said with a self-deprecating smile.

While laughing at himself and thinking nostalgically of the delicacies from the mountains and seas in his previous life, he started to chop the meat filling very quickly with his hands, and then found some vegetables to mix it with. These vegetables were picked by Liu An when he went out. Summer is about to start, and there are so many vegetables.

What's missing is silver and copper!

Thinking about ways to make money but not paying attention to the heat, the meat was almost burnt. Liu An angrily hit Liu Fan on the sidelines, "Brother, you said you could? This meat is burnt!"

Liu Fan blushed and said: "Accident, accident!"

Quickly take it out, then throw the soaked millet into the pot while there is still some oil and water in it, cover the wooden pot lid, and simmer slowly over low heat.

I had nothing to do and chatted with Liu An. This girl is a little talkative and kept talking. Most of them were interesting things in the village, such as whose child was beaten, whose dog was lost, whose mother-in-law.

Who are you fighting with again?

Liu Fan was very interested and asked, "Girl, have you ever thought about going to school?"

"Go to school? There is no teacher in the village!"

Liu Fan was stunned for a moment, and then he remembered that in the Tang Dynasty, not everyone could read books, let alone an ordinary family. It took a lot of money to cultivate an imperial examination talent.

In modern times, many people compare junior high schools and high schools to scholars and the like. In fact, there is no comparison at all. Modern society teaches erudition, but ancient times taught deep cultivation.

"It's okay, Brother Xin. I may be able to afford you to go to school in the future, but before you go to school, you can learn other things from me!"

"What?"

"Elementary mathematics, hey, it's very simple. I'll give you a multiplication table later. You can learn it!"

"Yeah!" Liu An looked at Liu Fan with expectant eyes and smiled again. This girl is really a ghost.

The rice is ready, a simple lean meat porridge. Although the black salt cubes are really difficult to put in, it still does not affect the taste of the porridge.

Liu Qingshu felt comfortable eating, and Liu An licked the bottom of the bowl clean.

After eating, Liu Qingshu was allowed to rest. Liu Fan took a tour of the village again under the leadership of Liu An. After the tour, he had a new understanding of the poverty in the village. It was really poor. It was simply a slum, and it was extremely poor.

That kind of.

Especially when rent is due soon, many families are worried.

Liu Fan also saw the most valuable item in the village, an old scalper. This guy was fed good feed and lived well. The key was that there were people who often took it for walks and cleaned its house.

"It's worse to live than a cow!" Liu Fan said helplessly.

Liu An smiled and said: "The rhubarb in our village is a treasure! I don't know how many villages want to borrow seeds! They will be sown soon, and the whole village depends on rhubarb!"

Liu Fan hummed and remembered watching on TV that eating cows in the Tang Dynasty was punishable by a felony. Although ponies were used to plow fields in many places, they were not as good as cows.

There were no opportunities to make a fortune in the village, so I greeted Liu An and saw that it was still early, so I was going to go to Wannian County to see if there were any opportunities.

After leaving the village, we walked for half an hour and arrived at Wannian County. After all, it was the ancient capital of several dynasties. It is still majestic and has a lot of people coming and going. Usually, the more people gather in a place, the more money and people can be generated.

The more the better.

Why were Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen so developed in my previous life? There were too many people and all kinds of talents. This made it possible to create wealth, but small places couldn’t create wealth? Of course not, but making big money is still an opportunity in big places.

More.

Enter the city.

"Fuck!" Liu Fan almost spit out, all kinds of smells hit his face, horse manure could be seen everywhere, children were running naked, and the aroma of the restaurant mixed with the stench made Liu Fan lose his appetite at all.

The building is really well planned, each square is neat and tidy. It doesn't look like a place to live, but more like a military base. It looks very beautiful, but the environment... is really hard to describe.

After walking around for a while, I got a preliminary understanding of the business pattern of the Tang Dynasty today. Most of the business is bartering, money is less circulated, and the shops sell nothing. Most of them are cloth and food, and iron tools are controlled to the point where they can be seen.

There were relatively few people arriving, and the most numerous ones were all kinds of businessmen traveling from north to south.

There were knights walking on the street. Liu Fan was curious about them and even wanted to ask them if they could fly over the walls. He was shocked when he saw a swordsman flying to the second floor. He felt that he was not in the Tang Dynasty, but in the Tang Dynasty.

It's like traveling to the world of immortals.

"You've improved your posture!" Liu Fan nodded with satisfaction, pulled the cloth around his nose again, and continued to walk forward.

When he came to a grocery store, he took a look and was about to leave. Unexpectedly, the salesman grabbed Liu Fan and said, "Gudan?"

"Um?"

"Hehe, it's really you, brat, you didn't even come to see me when you came back! What's the matter, are you ready to go back after coming in for a walk?" the middle-aged man said with a smile.

Liu Fan searched his memory and said calmly: "Uncle!"

"Come in, come in! Oh, I haven't seen you in so many years. Look, you have grown so big. If I hadn't seen you on your mother's grave two years ago, I would definitely not know you now!" the middle-aged man sighed with emotion.

said.

"I have been serving in the military for the past two years and I just came back yesterday!" Liu Fan briefly talked about his experience. The main reason was that Liu Fan was a little afraid of society. In his previous life, his cell phone was always on silent, and he had to wait several minutes for others to send a WeChat message.

If you dare to watch it, you will be ecstatic if it is an advertisement, but you will be confused for a long time if it is news.

Later, when I became a leader, there was more news, which became a burden. Every time I read the news, I would be tortured for a long time.

Even if I have traveled through time, I still feel like I can’t talk anymore.

He Luofeng saw that Liu Fan didn't mean to say anything, so he smiled bitterly and said: "Although your mother's death has something to do with me, but...well, you can't blame me, and I didn't mean it. Your mother is gone.

I’m having a hard time too!”

After saying that, he walked to the side and packed some rice, sugar cubes, salt, etc., "Here! Take it, give it to your dad. Your dad's stubborn temper is gone. You should take it back and he won't say anything to you. I heard that your dad broke his leg."

Yes, it would be better to eat more!"

"Thank you, uncle!" Liu Fan took it. Don't give it up. People are about to starve to death. Let's get over the current difficulties first.

He Luofengzi looked at Liu Fan's appearance carefully for a while and said: "It looks like, it really looks like you and your mother look more and more like each other!"

"Then, uncle, I will go back first!"

"Go back. It's getting late. It's safe to go back early. Remember, come and see me when you have time. When you have time, go and see the old lady. I miss you too. The previous generation is the previous generation.

Grudges cannot involve you!"
