"So, we really have a lot of money for this food?"

"Of course this is ......", Zhen Qian continued to speak skillfully, his own words, these maritime stewards have to believe it, Zuixianlou is a living example in front of them, the new cooking dishes have been recognized, and the profits in them do not need Zhen Qian to say more, "The value of commodities lies in transportation and exchange, and you can earn ten times the profit by transporting worthless things from one place to another, if you send Lingnan fresh lychees to Chang'an, I don't need to say more about the profits!" ”

"Of course we know this, but the fresh lychees are spoiled and spoiled when they are picked from the tree, and the time in between will not exceed five days, and it is thousands of miles away from Lingnan to Chang'an, Lord Zhen will not really ask us to transport lychees!"

Zhen Qian didn't want to tell these people that the lychees had a longer shelf life in ice water, and of course this time was not enough to transport the lychees from Lingnan to Chang'an.

"When the concubine laughs on the red dust, no one knows that it is a lychee."

The lychees eaten by Yang Guifei were all transported to Chang'an by Lingnan whole lychee trees, and the scene in Du Mu's poem does not exist at all, so naturally the scene of transporting lychees cannot be seen, which is purely made up by the author and has deceived future generations for thousands of years.

"I didn't say that I would let you transport lychees", Zhen Qian said irresponsibly: "I'm talking about these foods in your hands, which look very ordinary, but what about transporting them to other places?" ”

"That's not going to work!" A maritime steward immediately retorted: "There is no problem with keeping these things for a month in the spring and autumn days, but they will rot when they are transported thousands of miles away, wouldn't it be a big loss to do so?" ”

Zhen Qian couldn't wait to kick the talkative steward, this is a fat man, his face is honest and can't see the shrewdness of Shang Jia at all, many people will be deceived by this guy, and after being deceived, he will help him count the money, and even thank Dade for begging him to lie to himself again, this is the human spirit, the real genius of Shang Jiali.

If you want to set yourself more, you can also put on a grievance, this acting skill is really high!

Put your head on the thigh of the light smoke, you will never sit when you can lie down now, and you will never stand when you can sit, Zhen Qian's appearance is very rude, and others can only look at Zhen Qian's lazy appearance, no one dares to say that this is wrong, who calls the other party a lord? Even if you hug left and right, there will be people clapping and applauding loudly.

Qingyan smiled, put his hand on Zhen Gan's forehead, and arranged Zhen Qian's hair that was messed up by the sea breeze.

The fat steward took out a shiny stone and put it on the table with a very eye-catching look, was grabbed by Zhen Qian casually and glanced at it, and threw the stone out with a movement of his fingers, and the fat man screamed: "That's a diamond, my lord, you just threw away more than 30 yuan, if you find someone to polish it, you can immediately double it!" ”

"You're talking about this rotten stone?" Zhen Qian's fingers flipped over, and the shiny stone just now appeared in Zhen Qian's palm again.

The fat man wiped the beads of sweat that didn't exist on his forehead, and said carefully: "This is something that someone in the clan brought back from Zhenla a few years ago, and it is rare to see a big diamond like an egg, but unfortunately such a gemstone is too difficult to process, and you need to find the best craftsman for polishing, so I have always kept this rough diamond?" ”

Diamonds! Later generations of Westerners like such shiny things, this kind of diamond in the Tang Dynasty was not taken seriously, the Tang people prefer warm jade and colorful gemstones, if this diamond is taken to the future generations to polish into hundreds of facets, how can it be auctioned for 10 million US dollars!

It's a pity, such a technique has not yet appeared, it would be good to polish it, Zhen Qian casually slapped the diamond in Qingyan's hand, stretched out his hand and beckoned to several other stewards, and immediately there were many more gems on the table, including red agate, colorful bracelets, and pearl ...... the size of a quail egg, each of which was worth about forty or fifty yuan.

"A bunch of stingy guys!"

I just said that I bought the production recipe in their hands for a hundred times, and these people are obviously the masters who don't see rabbits and don't scatter eagles, and sneered: "People say that food, clothing, housing and transportation, in fact, this sentence is problematic, think about it, in the case of people who don't have a full stomach, who will pay attention to their own clothing, and only then can they know etiquette, these two sentences are not very contradictory, so eating is the first need of people!" ”

"Since eating is the most important, I don't know if you have studied the evolution process of eating, not to mention that the food is different in different places, in the distant era, before the Spring and Autumn Period, it is good to have salt in the food eaten by people before the Spring and Autumn Period, and the food is roasted with fire and then sprinkled with some salt is delicious, but slowly people have discovered a variety of condiments and spices, and the food has become more exquisite, and the production process and process are becoming more and more complex, and finally what to eat is not just to eat a full stomach, but also a symbol of identity and status......."

These stewards are all human beings in various families, and even if they are thrown into future generations, they are talents, but unfortunately compared with Zhen Qian, their vision is too shallow, and when it comes to the big truth, these stewards together are not Zhen Qian's opponents.

"There is still so much knowledge here, no wonder you can become a lord, we can only be subordinates who help people run errands!"

"Zhen Lang is an expert in the study of food, when it comes to how to eat and what is delicious, I'm afraid there are few people in Datang who can surpass Zhen Lang?" Qingyan rubbed Zhen Qian's forehead with his plump chest, and said with an obsessive face.

Zhen Qian was a little complacent: "Don't talk nonsense, you guys want to know most about how to make money with food!" Speaking of which, you people are holding a golden rice bowl and asking for rice, but you already have a recipe to make money in your hands but you can't use it, the appearance of seasonings and spices can not only make the food more delicious, but also have a role to preserve the food, so that the deliciousness of the food can be preserved for a longer time. Spring planting, summer busy, autumn harvest, winter storage, this Tibetan character knowledge is big, the common method is to use salt to pickle food, storage for one or two seasons is no problem, but the time is long to rot, and the salted food is not delicious, so it has evolved more ways to store food. The method of making food in your hands is also a kind of storage, but you ignore the problem of time when considering deliciousness, delicious and the length of time are sometimes difficult to choose, but this contradiction is not unsolvable, you can imagine that if delicious food can be stored for three months without spoiling, it is not sold to all parts of the Tang Dynasty, that is, the food needed by the imperial army can also participate in it? ”

"Quartermaster!"

The food needed for the army to go out is calculated in piles, as long as it can be divided into a little, there will be no worries about food and clothing in this life, but Zhen Qian went around and around without saying how to keep the deliciousness of the food for a longer time, one by one stretched his neck and looked at Zhen Qian, eager to rush up and choke the other party's neck and let him say it quickly!
