Chapter 268 Ma Zhou Visits

Ma Zhou's expression showed no signs of fluctuation. As a man who rose from a commoner to the top power center of the Tang Dynasty, he was self-aware from the beginning to the end.

Some things cannot be rushed.

If you have thoughts and accurate understandings in your heart, you must also obey His Majesty's orders.

"Your Majesty, according to your estimation, it will take at least two or three months to implement this at this speed."

The Tang Dynasty covers a vast territory. If you want to implement a political decree, someone must take the lead and set an example. Just passing the decree may take two months. Adding in other factors, it may take at least half a year.

Half a year is already the fastest.

Of course Li Shimin knew: "Don't worry, I will slowly make them lose everything."

When Li Shimin discussed with Liu Xuan yesterday, he had already made a plan. A slap and a sweet date would obviously shake your foundation, but the next moment, he would reward you with something.

Just give him the Night Pearl. I heard that the old men of the Cui family are looking for the best doctor in the Tang Dynasty. Good things come to you, and this is a blessing.

Ma Zhou came out of the imperial study room, already determined in his heart. After going out this time, he may not come back alive, but if he comes back alive, he will definitely become the prime minister of the dynasty one day.

"We still need to go to the Lantian Marquis Mansion first."

…

"Stop talking about it, I just like eating fat sausage."

"Yes, fat intestines are a good thing. Shopkeeper Liu Xuan, if you keep saying that eating too much will make you feel uncomfortable, I will be angry!"

There are many people pretending to be angry and autistic in the Datang Hotel, but the two in front of them are still a little clumsy.

Fang Yiyu looked at this scene as if he were watching a child being amused.

"You two have been talking here for a long time. It's not that my young master won't let you eat the sausage. The main reason is that you only eat the sausage. If you can eat something else, you have to moisten your stomach."

Before Liu Xuan opened his mouth, Fang Yiyu started to speak, and every word was reasonable.

The point is, this morning, someone wanted to eat fat sausage early in the morning. After eating three portions, he vomited directly.

No matter how good Liu Xuan is, he still has a bad reputation.

"You two, this Nine-turn Fat Sausage is a perfect match when paired with rice."

"The various levels of flavors in the crispiness are not something that ordinary people can appreciate. If you two can appreciate it, you must be of the same taste, right?"

The two middle-aged men smiled and watched Liu Xuan keep holding his hands.

"Shopkeeper Liu has a keen eye. The two of us are here to taste and learn."

"Are you two from Runfeng Tower and Fengzexuan?"

Upon hearing this, the two looked at each other, smiled, and bowed deeply to Liu Xuan.

"Shopkeeper Liu, let me tell you the truth. We each have our own masters, but the young master said in unison that our food is delicious. We are both chefs, and our skills are passed down from our families. I heard that Datang Hotel has magical craftsmanship. Naturally, I want to be more diligent.”

"I came here today because I really want to taste it and see if I can learn something."

Liu Xuan smiled. What defeats you is not the craftsmanship, but the seasoning.

Every household in ancient times had its own secret sauces. In the face of the technology of later generations, these sauces have been deconstructed, and most of them are fresh, salty, spicy, and sweet.

The seasonings Liu Xuan put in it, not to mention others, just any kind of MSG or chicken essence, were enough for these two people to study for a lifetime.

"You two have spoken seriously. If you have any ideas, Liu Xuanzhi will tell you everything."

The chefs from Runfeng Tower and Fengzexuan came to study. In the eyes of ordinary people, it was just a trivial matter, but Liu Xuan knew that it was very likely that Luo Wangu and Yang Liufang were about to take office, and their faces would be brighter. Dare to I made a request to my family.

Datang Hotel became more lively today because of the appearance of these two people.

"Shop Manager Liu Xuan, it's not that we have to come here secretly to learn. The main thing is that people from all the major restaurants in Chang'an are here. I heard that several people from the same profession have eaten your food and gone straight to the golden basin. Wash your hands and never touch anything in the kitchen again.”

Liu Xuan was speechless. Is there such a thing?

Thinking of the impact of MSG on these people, Liu Xuan thought of the time when China faced the priority development of Western industry. Suddenly, when he opened his eyes, he was already surrounded by foreign guns and cannons. At that time, how desperate he was.

"Learn, there's no end to learning!" The young man on the side had already begun to tease. It turned out that he was a little exhausted after hanging out in the brothel last night and came here to replenish his health today, "Shopkeeper Liu, I'll add another bowl of mutton soup. "

The young man was sweating profusely and had a book in his hand. He was studying hard and working hard. When Liu Xuan saw the book, he couldn't help but think of this guy who was fighting hard in the brothel at night. I still have to read a book if I have nothing to do.

After wandering around the main hall, Liu Xuan felt that time was almost up and returned to the backyard. In the backyard, Zheng Liwan was immersed in math problems, and at the same time there were some hair-like things on hand.

"Liu Xuan, it's a little difficult to make these wool into threads. Although the wool is soft, it doesn't stick together well."

Zheng Liwan put forward her idea, and her idea was very good. This is a difficult problem.

"Yourong, don't be so rigid in your behavior. Have you ever thought about what if you changed your mind and mixed wool with other things?"

"You mean silk?" Zheng Liwan frowned. If it was silk, then the entire cost would go up. Wool is so cheap, and adding silk, the cost would increase rapidly. "It's too expensive, not worth it."

If silk and wool can be mixed together to spin and weave, why didn't people think of it before?

"Think about it again. Don't use those expensive things. Cheap ones are also fine."

After Liu Xuan finished speaking, he went straight into the kitchen at the back.

At noon, the sun was shining high in Chang'an City. Although the sun was shining on the earth, it made people feel a little warmer, but the temperature was still cold, and the snow on both sides of the road still showed no signs of melting.

Ma Zhou was wearing thin clothes and curled up, walking on the road of Xinghuafang. He wandered around this alley for a whole morning, but no one from the Marquis of Lantian Mansion returned.

I heard from Liu Renyuan that as long as someone returned, it would be around noon, when the Marquis of Lantian would return.

Three days have passed since His Majesty asked him to do something. This morning, His Majesty personally rewarded Zheng of Xingyang with a night-shining pearl. I don't know where His Majesty's night-shining pearl came from. Ma Zhou felt a little sorry.

Born in the lower class, he has remained true to himself for so many years. Today, he came to visit the Marquis of Lantian. His Majesty said that he must not be arrogant at all.

Suddenly, the sound of a carriage came from behind Ma Zhou.

"Ma Zhou, get in the carriage."

This was Li Shimin's voice.
