In this era when the mining industry is relatively backward.
Most of the metals were in the hands of the imperial court.
If people want to buy metal appliances, they must report it.
Even if people just buy a piece of farm equipment, this must be the case.
Master craftsmen who can make metal utensils must register with the local government before they can carry out normal production activities.
The imperial court's restrictions on farm tools were still so strict.
This shows how difficult it is for people to buy all the utensils.
This is the general environment of the entire era.
It is natural for pottery to occupy a mainstream position.
only.
Zhou Peirong, who was used to using white porcelain bowls, was actually tired of the pottery in this world.
The bulkiness and roughness of pottery made it really difficult for Zhou Peirong to adapt.
If conditions do not allow it.
Zhou Peirong had already thrown away all the utensils at home and smashed them.
But now, the opportunity has come.
"Brother Yan!"
Zhou Peirong looked at Yan Beixun steadily, his eyes filled with eagerness.
"I wonder if you have ever seen porcelain stone, porcelain clay, quartz, white sand, green material..."
Zhou Peirong listed the materials for making porcelain to Yan Beixun.
Not only that, Zhou Peirong also introduced the characteristics of each material to Yan Beixun.
"I have indeed seen these things!"
Yan Beixun frowned slightly and looked at Zhou Peirong with some confusion.
"Brother Zhou, why did you suddenly mention these things? Could it be..."
He obviously thought of some possibility, and his eyes immediately lit up.
"Yes, it's what you think!"
Zhou Peirong nodded vigorously, with a confident smile on his lips.
"Brother Yan, since your pottery can't enter the high-end market, then we should simply give up."
"Don't the big shots nowadays like lacquerware and metal utensils, but they scorn pottery?"
"In that case, let's create an upgraded version of pottery."
"Brother Yan, just wait and see when this upgraded version of the appliance comes out! Those big shots will definitely come to do business with you!"
The scene described by Zhou Peirong is really quite beautiful.
It’s not just Yan Beixun.
Several other businessmen, and even Wei An, who was originally uninterested, were deeply attracted by Zhou Peirong's words.
Their faces were already filled with longing looks.
Seeing the appearance of these people at this time, Zhou Peirong did not disturb them.
Just at this time, Wei An, who had been silent until now, spoke again.
"Boss Zhou, you have nothing to do now anyway. I think you might as well just stay here and show us your skills?"
Wei An smiled and pursed his lips in the direction of the kitchen.
“This county is really tired of the food here.”
"Boss Zhou, you won't deny this face to this county, right?"
"Ah, this..."
Zhou Peirong hesitated slightly, and finally nodded slightly.
"Of course I want to give you the face of the county magistrate!"
"It's just that this is the property of the Li family after all. If I cook here, wouldn't it be... that I am overstepping my authority?"
"No, you are wrong!"
Wei An shook his head lightly and continued cheerfully: "This place is no longer the property of the Li family. The Li family betrayed you, do you think the county will not punish him?"
"What? This place is no longer the property of the Li family? This..."
Zhou Peirong was shocked.
He never expected that Wei An would be so cruel.
Li Shaoqi obviously helped him and revealed to him the existence of papermaking technology.
But he came and killed the donkey, and even deprived the Li family of their property.
This was so cruel that it really made Zhou Peirong's hair stand on end.
But soon, Zhou Peirong's mood returned to normal.
He knows it very well.
The main purpose of Wei An taking away the Li family's property was to appease Zhou Peirong.
And now, he and Guardforce also have a cooperative relationship.
As long as you can still make money and bring benefits to Guardforce, then Guardforce will not do anything to you.
If that's the case, then what else do you have to worry about?
Taking a deep breath, Zhou Peirong put a smile on his lips again and nodded lightly to Wei An.
"Your Excellency, the County Magistrate, is fair in his dealings and clear in rewards and punishments. I admire you very much!"
"Since the county magistrate has given me this face and wants me to show off my skills, then I will be making a fool of myself!"
As Zhou Peirong spoke, he turned around and walked toward the kitchen.
At this time, several other businessmen also came to their senses.
As soon as they heard that Zhou Peirong was going to cook in person, several businessmen immediately gathered around.
"Brother Zhou, come on, come on, show us your cooking skills, brother, I can't wait!"
"Yes, yes, brother, I'm drooling now. Brother Zhou, don't keep me waiting for too long!"
"Brother Zhou, if possible, show me the new dish you have researched! Brother, I am not only looking forward to it, but I am already very greedy!"
Several businessmen talked all over the place and kept urging Zhou Peirong.
Chu Quan kept wiping his saliva, his little eyes full of expectation.
Seeing the eagerness of these people, Zhou Peirong's mouth twitched and he couldn't help but roll his eyes.
"Let me tell you, after all, you have eaten and met the master before."
"It's just a few new dishes, is that what you think?"
"Ahem, aren't we giving you face and flattering you?"
"I won't quibble, I'm just greedy, hurry up and cook!"
Being teased by Zhou Peirong, some people had embarrassed expressions on their faces.
But some people are holding back their necks and are still the same, still looking forward to it.
That’s right!
The one who is still looking forward to it is Chu Quan.
"Okay! I've convinced you, I'm going to cook now!"
Zhou Peirong simply raised his hands and surrendered.
Under the expectant eyes of everyone, Zhou Peirong quickly walked into the kitchen.
The chefs at Li Ji Restaurant are all the best in Liming County.
certainly!
The 'top' mentioned here is limited to this era.
If Zhou Peirong is included, the skills of these chefs are really not impressive.
Zhou Peirong felt a little disgusted even if he asked these people to help his chef.
Look at the ingredients in the kitchen...
Well, there are actually quite a lot of ingredients here.
There is basically no shortage of various meats and vegetables here.
The only thing that makes Zhou Peirong dissatisfied is that the types of condiments here are a bit monotonous.
Don't say anything else.
Without chili peppers, many of the dishes in Zhou Peirong's mind would be impossible to make.
But it’s okay!
Although there are no chili peppers in this world, there is dogwood as a substitute.
