1304: C1304 Don't Beat a Drowning Dog

C1304 Don't Beat a Drowning Dog

Shi Lei really did show his fist the size of a clay pot. He compared it to Jiang Tao's face and said to Yang Soong: "Forget it?"

"Why is that?" Jiang Tao was even more curious than Yang Soong.

The two of them had been fighting for decades in White Water City.

It was either Shi Lei wanted to beat up Jiang Tao, or Jiang Tao wanted to beat Shi Lei up.

Especially Shi Lei, he wanted to beat up Jiang Tao for many years, so it was not a secret in White Water City.

If he couldn't beat up Jiang Tao for so many years, then why didn't he?

How many people in the world could not beat him up?

"Why don't you beat him up?"

Everyone was curious.

"Chef Yang, aren't you curious?" Shi Lei asked.

Yang Soong really wasn't curious, he knew the reason.

However,

"If you need it, I can be curious." Yang Soong was still very supportive.

Wu Lei was very happy. "Chef Yang knows me."

"Because there's no need." Wu Lei's tone was quite serious and serious.

His culinary skills were not as good as Jiang Tao's. He was left behind and could not catch up to him. He was unwilling to accept this and was filled with resentment. How could he not want to beat Jiang Tao?

"You are already defeated by me. How ugly would it be to beat you up?" Wu Lei laughed loudly.

Jiang Tao: F * ck you, I really want to beat you up right now.

Because he had lost.

"I've already won, so of course I have to be magnanimous. This is called the style of a gentleman!"

Ten years of sulk had all disappeared. He was too happy. He didn't want to hit anyone at all.

Yang Soong asked, "Do you want to laugh at the sky?"

"Yes! Chef Yang, have you experienced the same thing before? Do you understand how I feel? "

It was hard to find a good friend in the world.

" No, I can't be surpassed by others for ten years. Ever since I embarked on the path of cooking, I've never lost. " Yang Soong said with a smile.

Shi Lei: It's a bit heart-wrenching.

Jiang Tao: So I'm the only one who lost, right?

"Today, you used too much strength to cut open the flowers on your back. When you went into the pot, the fire was a bit too big, but it was a second later. The red sauce was still a bit thick, you still have to practice." Yang Soong said.

"Thank you, chef Yang." Shi Lei took the small notebook and wrote it down bit by bit, "I'll practice when I go back later."

"Don't just practice, you also need to learn to think. Think carefully in your head. From catching fish to the temperature of each flame, you have to consider it. When you can taste the taste of the fish in your brain, this dish will be ready."

Yang Soong called this process entering the Profound.

There was such a situation in ancient Huaxia. His disciple was cooking in the kitchen and accidentally spilled too much salt. His master watched from outside and poured tea into his mouth.

Many people would treat it as a joke, but Yang Soong knew that it was true.

Because he was in the kitchen, it was very easy to be surrounded by sour, sweet, spicy, and salty.

"Yes!"

The chef could imagine the taste of the braised fish and also imagine the taste of it out of thin air.

Could it be true?

If it was someone else who said it, shi Lei wouldn't believe it. He would even think that the other party was playing with him.

No matter how unbelievable Yang Soong's words were, shi Lei was willing to believe it.

"Practice well, there's a surprise." Yang Soong whispered to Shi Lei for a while.

Jiang Tao: I suddenly feel a little sour.

"You said you want to go downstairs." Jiang Tao made his decision.

"It's not that I want to buy it, but I've already paid for it."

"I want to stay. Can I learn from you?"

Jiang Tao finally said.

"Of course." This was what Yang Soong had been waiting for.

Shi Lei patted Jiang Tao's shoulder. "Don't worry, there are only benefits to following Chef Yang. If you do well, you will also get a bonus."

Yang Soong bought the First-Class Restaurant and gave two shares to the magistrate office. He gave two shares to the Fragrant Sky Restaurant and two shares of the dividend. He intended to give the workers who performed well in the restaurant a bonus. The remaining four shares naturally belonged to Yang Soong.

Giving two shares to the magistrate was considered to be a public interest. The magistrate would use these two shares of the dividend to help the civilians outside the city.

Although the county magistrate Xu Zhang An was a person who did business, being an official was still fair.

The residents of White Water City lived well by relying on the profits from the merchants. The reason why the people outside the city were suffering was mainly because of the poor geographical location. There had never been a situation where officials bullied the people.

Yang Soong voluntarily gave up two shares of the profits. He also provided a basket of potatoes and a basket of sweet potatoes. Each of them weighed one hundred kilograms, which added up to two hundred kilograms.

"Will these two things really survive if they are planted?"

"They can live. They can withstand cold and drought. The yield is still very high. They can cook, and they can also be used as staple food, making it convenient to store and carry them." Yang Soong said.

Xu Zhang An was obviously tempted. "How long will it take for it to be harvested?"

"Three months." Yang Soong still had a long way to go. The potatoes that the system rewarded him were premature. They could mature from seventy to eighty days.

However, the land in Border City was too barren, and the land was not strong enough, so it would take a long time for it to grow.

"If I plant these 100 pounds, I can get at least 2000 pounds."

Xu Zhang An staggered down from his chair and grabbed Yang Soong's hand. "Are you serious?"

"It's true." Yang Soong was really not used to being grabbed by a man, even if you were a weak scholar.

"That's two thousand kilograms, two thousand kilograms!" Xu Zhang An immediately calculated that this was twenty times the yield.1

Yang Soong pulled his hand out, and Xu Zhang An pulled on his sleeve again.

"More than two thousand pounds." Yang Soong said, "I will give seeds, and I will also pay to hire people to plant seeds. You only need to give me a few pieces of Little Qingshan's land."

Little Qingshan had long been reduced to a barren mountain. There were no signs of human habitation, so giving it to Yang Soong would not be a problem at all.

"I will send a team of officials to supervise you. You must plant these two things that you mentioned." Xu Zhang An was willing to give it a try.

"No need." Yang Soong said.

If it was true, then it would be a great political achievement. Xu Zhang An would definitely be the top scorer in the year of the Imperial Examinations.

He could even appear in the Great Summer Calendar because of this.

"It must be used. Out of the 13 villages outside the city, 99% of them are hungry people. Let them know that Little Qingshan planted so much food. It might cause a riot."

Yang Soong did not expect this.

"We can hide it from the world and say that we planted saplings." Yang Soong said.

The potatoes were easy to talk about, but Yang Soong was afraid that they would eat the sweet potato seedlings.

"It's okay to invite officials over. They also have to participate in the farming."

Yang Soong still had to choose personally. He did not intend to hire a group of evil supervising officials to slave the civilians.

The officials also started farming. When they had something to do, they would be busy, so they did not have that much time and thoughts to stir up trouble.

"They might not be willing to." The officials of the county government were taught very well by Xu Zhang An. They could not be in the countryside. When they walked out, they would be looked up to because they were from the yamen. They would also receive some small gifts during the holidays.

It was not a big deal, so Xu Zhang An just closed his eyes.

After all, the water was clear, but there was no fish.

"I'll pay for it." Yang Soong could give the official three times the salary. If he did well, he could also give them bonuses. There was no need to worry about them being unwilling.

"Alright, then I'll give them to you."

Yang Soong was very famous. He was a distinguished guest of the prefectural magistrate and county magistrate. The officials were very polite to him.

"You want us to farm? You also want to ensure the safety of the land and the other farmers?"

The workload was higher. Farming was dirty, bitter, and tiring. They had to station themselves on the desolate mountains outside the city. It was too difficult, and the officers were unwilling to go.

Yang Soong said, "This is a good thing. It will benefit the country and the people."

Cheh -

The officers did not take it seriously at all.
