If a house as big as Yaoshan was placed in a city larger than Xianping County, it would cost at most twenty taels of silver a month.
Cheng Hanyan has never been out of Xianping County. He just doesn't have much knowledge. He is not stupid.
The person who helped find the house also knew that someone had discovered that he had deliberately raised the price, so his expression was a bit awkward and he spoke in a flattering manner.
"If there is nothing better than this, do you want to rent it? If so, I can help you negotiate and I can give you a lower rent."
When the man spoke, he rubbed his index finger and thumb together, which represented money.
"It's fifty taels a month. Even if it's less, I'm afraid it won't be much less. I only buy this house, not rent it. If it doesn't sell, help me find another one. It's yours, and I won't be less. Just
It’s best not to have any wrong thoughts that you shouldn’t have.”
Cheng Hanyan typed a few words, then reached out and took out a few pieces of silver and handed it to the man.
"This is your hard-earned money."
Beating a stick to give a sweet date is a trick that Cheng Hanyan is also used to.
The man looked at the broken silver in his hand, and the expression on his face became even more embarrassed.
"I will remember your words and I will contact you if I find a suitable house."
Cheng Hanyan nodded, turned around and left the house, went back to the restaurant and prepared all the side dishes.
Song Yutong took a rare rest on the carriage for a while, and then she woke up. It wasn't that she wasn't sleepy and didn't want to rest.
It was because the system issued several more tasks to her. This task was a hidden task. It was not about cooking, but about finding a dish called Snow Spirit Grass.
It is said that Snow Spirit Grass has the effect of enhancing nourishment, and this dish is required for every dish made in the activated five-level menu.
It is equivalent to the seasonings that are necessary for making medicinal meals, and after activating the fifth-level menu, you will also receive some special seasonings issued by the new system space.
These special seasonings have similar functions to Xuelingcao. They are special foods that allow medicinal foods to play their best role.
To be precise, the fourth-level menu was a watershed from the fifth-level menu.
Before the fourth-level menu, it was just delicious food, but after the fourth-level menu, the focus is on delicious food, health and nutrition.
As for the Snow Spirit Grass system that cannot be distributed, it is because the Snow Spirit Grass is only a specialty of this small world in this dynasty, but its actual use has not been discovered yet.
Therefore, in order for Xuelingcao to be exposed to people and exert its maximum value, Song Yutong must go out to find it.
It is said that snow spirit grass is no different from other herbs and most of them grow in the mountains. In addition, some people sell snow spirit grass as ordinary wild vegetables in the vegetable market.
Song Yutong was going to try her luck at the vegetable market to see if she could find the Snow Spirit Grass mentioned by the system.
"Host, the time limit is three days. If you fail to find the Snow Spirit Grass within three days, after activating the fifth-level menu, you will not be able to complete all the dishes on the fifth-level menu."
If she continues to be unable to complete new dishes, the system will disappear over time. The most critical thing is that because she cannot activate new dishes, she continues to upgrade the system and fails to complete the task. The final punishment is that her original cooking skills will be taken away.
No matter how delicious the food you make now, the food you make in the future will be unpalatable.
Even if you add the seasonings, no matter how hard you try, you will end up with a dark dish with a strange taste.
This is why Song Yutong did not continue to rest even though he was very tired, but was eager to go to the vegetable market to find Xuelingcao.
The system sent a picture of the Snow Spirit Grass to Song Yutong, and she only needed to open the system panel with her consciousness to directly see what the Snow Spirit Grass looked like.
As soon as Cheng Hanyan returned to the restaurant, he saw his wife hurriedly getting ready to go out. She was walking so fast that she bumped into her.
Song Yutong rubbed her sore nose and was about to raise her head to apologize when she saw that the person coming was her husband.
Suddenly, he became squeamish and raised his hand to hit Cheng Han Yansheng's raised arm.
"It hurts me so much. Your chest is so hard, you don't know how to avoid me." Song Yutong didn't really complain about him, her eyes were a bit delicate and soft, and indescribably sultry.
The two people standing at the door of the restaurant didn't look like they were about to quarrel, but instead looked like they were flirting.
Cheng Hanyan raised his hand to touch her nose to see if there was anything wrong. The blow that Song Yutong hit him didn't hurt at all. It didn't use much force, but it was like scratching an itch.
"Let me see where it hurts. Where are you going in such a hurry?"
Song Yutong simply grabbed Cheng Hanyan's arm, not showing him his red nose, and pulled him outside in large strides.
"I just happened to accompany me to the vegetable market to have a look. I'm looking for a wild vegetable called Snow Lingcao. I heard it grows on the mountain. The leaves are a bit like snow lotus. It tastes bitter and astringent after eating it, just like the bitter taste of water.
It does not diminish at all. During the famine, there were still people digging wild vegetables like this in the mountains. Do you have any impression?"
Cheng Hanyan is a hunter, and he goes to the mountains to hunt all year round. The back mountain of Chengjia Village is like his back garden. Maybe he has seen this Snow Spirit Grass.
So with his help, the efficiency will definitely be much higher than just one person.
When Cheng Hanyan heard Song Yutong's description of Xuelingcao, a corresponding wild vegetable immediately appeared in his mind.
In the village, this wild vegetable is called bitter lotus grass.
It is said that no one would eat this grass unless they were so hungry that they had no choice but to eat it.
It tastes more bitter than coptis and has a strange smell when cooked. It is also very astringent. After taking a bite, you need to drink a lot of water to wash away the uncomfortable feeling and bitter taste in your mouth.
It is precisely because of this that when some people are very hungry and cannot afford to eat, they will go to the mountains to dig grass like this and put it in a pot to cook a dish.
Then boil a pot of water, take a mouthful of kibit grass and add a large bowl of water. A bowl of kink lotus mixed with water can last for three days without feeling extremely hungry.
When Cheng Hanyan said this, Song Yutong became even more certain that the bitter lotus grass he was talking about was the snow spirit grass that the system asked her to find.
According to the information given in the space, Xueling grass cannot be eaten just by digging it up and cooking it. There are several special processes required to stimulate the original properties of Xueling grass. It can be used as a nourishing and edible food when placed in dishes.
It won't taste bitter or astringent, and the strange smell will become more fragrant.
"Is this the growing season for the snow spirit grass? Will there be no place to buy it in the vegetable market?"
What Song Yutong is most worried about is that it is not the season for the growth of snow spirit grass. If this is the case, she will not be able to complete this task within three days.
"This kind of grass grows all year round, and most of it grows on the edge of cliffs. Unless they are hungry and have no choice but to pick it, few people will pick it. So if you want to buy this kind of bitter lotus grass at the market, you probably have little hope."
