Li Yue burped with satisfaction after finishing the rice in the bowl.
"Is it tasty?"
"tasty!"
"I'm going to open a store."
Li Yue thought about it and said: "You are so good at cooking, you will definitely make a lot of money."
Zhang Yang shook his head and said: "The family needs a long-term income, but I don't plan to cook by myself, so I hired two cooks."
Li Yue raised her chin and said with some pride: "Your skills are only for cooking for me, right?"
Zhang Yang put away the bowls and chopsticks and said without any wavering: "Because I'm lazy."
"This is a bit disgraceful."
"Does it have to be sweet words?"
"Is it not good?"
"If you say too many sweet words, they will become cheap."
"..."
Li Yue bit her lip in dissatisfaction.
After sitting for a while, he returned to his room and slammed the door hard.
In the morning, before the sun has risen, it is a bit cold.
The grain harvest has just begun, and granaries everywhere are very busy.
We came to a grain store, where yesterday there was a sign recruiting workers.
Seeing the store owner open the door, Zhang Yang stepped forward and said, "Store store, do you still need more help here?"
The shopkeeper looked up and down and said, "Can you do hard work?"
Zhang Yang patted his arm and said, "You have the strength."
The shopkeeper took out a small wooden sign and said, "Go to the east gate of Chang'an City to move grain. Give this sign to the person in charge for thirty cents a day."
"Understood."
After taking the sign, Zhang Yang came to the east gate of Chang'an City.
There is a group of people waiting here holding the same sign.
When a group of people transporting grain arrived at the city gate, people surrounded them and moved the grain into the grain store in the city.
Zhang Yang gave the sign to the person in charge. The person in charge took one look at it and said, "New here?"
Zhang Yang nodded.
The steward put away the sign and said, "Are you so thin and strong?"
Zhang Yang said: "Yes."
After saying that, Zhang Yang picked up a bunch of soybeans and carried them on his back.
Seeing Zhang Yang working without saying a word is quite positive.
The manager nodded pertinently and said, "If you come back tomorrow, I'll tell the store owner that I'll give you an extra three cents for your wages."
"okay!"
Carrying a bag of soybeans with great difficulty, Zhang Yang walked into the city step by step.
Carrying soybeans all the way to the grain store.
The storekeeper is counting the food that has been brought in.
Where the soybeans are stacked, there are drainage tanks connected to each other.
What is placed in the water tank is bean paste.
The color of the black to yellow bean paste is not very good, but it is almost fermented.
Zhang Yang took a second look and realized that this was the best raw material for making soy sauce.
After resting for a while, Zhang Yang ran out to work.
With great difficulty, he carried a bag of soybeans on his back and carried it all the way into the city.
After two trips back and forth, Zhang Yang was already sweating profusely.
The shopkeeper looked at Zhang Yang and said, "Young man is quite hardworking. What's your name?"
Zhang Yang wiped his sweat and said, "My surname is Zhang."
The shopkeeper handed him a bowl of water and said, "Take a sip of water."
Zhang Yang took out his water bag and said, "I prepared it myself."
I only drink boiled water on weekdays and carry a water bag with me.
The store owner appreciates Zhang Yang more and more.
It took half a day to move the food. The store owner gave Zhang Yang five cents more and said, "You are the hardest working among these people. I will give you five cents more."
Zhang Yang said: "Can I exchange these five cents for some sauce?"
"These sauces aren't worth much either."
While talking, the store took out a few tablespoons of sauce and put it into a cloth bag.
There was a lot of sauce, more than five kilograms.
The shopkeeper said: "This is ten cents worth of sauce, so I will give it to you as five cents. If you come back tomorrow, I will give it back to you."
"Thank you, store owner."
After saying that, Zhang Yang took the sauce and left.
I saw Zhang Yang coming back with his clothes soaked in sweat.
Li Yue frowned and said, "Why don't I give you those two jade pendants."
Zhang Yang said curiously: "Seriously?"
Li Yue helped him take off his coat and said: "I regret it, you should just do hard work."
Pouring cold water on Zhang Yang, Li Yue wiped his back and asked, "Is it hard?"
Feeling Li Yue's strength, Zhang Yang said: "It's not very tiring. Originally, I thought about getting some soybeans from the store, but I didn't expect that he had ready-made sauce."
Zhang Yang had no money, so even if he saved money, he used it very sparingly.
Sometimes Zhang Yang would bring something back while doing some hard work.
This way you can earn wages and save your own money.
"What do you want all this sauce for?"
"Make soy sauce."
In fact, Zhang Yang cannot be said to be thin. In order to survive, he has to work hard to make money. He has been quite strong for a long time.
It's just that he looks very thin when he puts on clothes.
"Soy sauce? Is it delicious?"
"A kind of dipping sauce, but also a kind of seasoning."
Zhang Yang still had red marks on his shoulders because he had been carrying grain bags for a day.
Li Yue touched the red mark with her hand, and her nose felt a little sore for a moment.
He can really endure hardship.
I really feel sorry for him.
"I'm telling you, with soy sauce we can make braised pork."
"You're so tired and you still want to eat."
"People are iron rice is steel."
Li Yue was so angry that she had no choice but to compromise with a smile and curse: "Okay, the food you make is the most delicious."
After the two of them had dinner, Zhang Yang put the sauce into a small jar and let it simmer for a few days.
Early the next morning, Zhang Yang came to work outside the city.
When the manager saw Zhang Yang coming again, he said: "The store said that if you come again today, I will give you more wages."
Zhang Yang nodded and said, "Thank you very much."
There is no shortage of coolies to work, but hard-working and young coolies like this are always scrambled for.
Li Tai is in a good mood these days.
After solving the egg puzzle, he was able to eat three bowls in one meal.
Knowing things that others don't know and understanding the power that others don't know, Li Tai feels that he sees everything in the world differently.
It's like I've reached another realm.
But the others in front of me are still in the simplest world.
What is air pressure?
Li Tai took a sip of water from a bamboo tube. As the teacher said, this is the effect of air pressure.
I have consulted many classics and found no mention of the word air pressure.
There are records of anger.
The knowledge that records this is all miscellaneous books.
Most of the books in the Imperial College are the Five Classics and Six Classics, but these miscellaneous books are in the market and it is difficult to find them. Some miscellaneous books even often write about strange powers and gods, and are not welcomed by many scholars.
