Pilgrims go up the mountain, after worshipping the Buddha, they will generally leave sesame oil money, of course, if the pilgrims stay on the mountain and eat a meal, they will leave more sesame oil money.

After all, don't you need money to eat?

Zhang Yuanwai is the richest person in Jinshan Village at the foot of the mountain, and this time he went up the mountain to make a vow, naturally he had to pay for sesame oil, and naturally he had to entertain him well with a meal.

After receiving Senior Brother Xuankong's words, Jiang Liu nodded, and then entered the room to get busy.

Soon, Jiangliu washed the rice and put it in the pot, and then fried several dishes with all colors and flavors.

Especially the bean sprouts that were sent a few days ago have already grown, and the crisp and refreshing bean sprouts, even if they are simply stir-fried, must be a fresh thing that people in this time and space have never eaten.

Although the food is usually very fast, but this time, Jiang Liu has put a lot of effort into it, and it is also very fine, and by the time he has done it, it is almost dusk.

It just so happened that at this time, Zhang Yuanwai and they were finished, and Senior Brother Xuankong quickly came over and brought some food out.

said that the old host was entertaining Zhang Yuanwai and fasting together.

After the old host had served their meals, the three senior brothers Xuankong, Xuanming and Xuanwu also came over and dined with Jiang Liu.

During the banquet, several senior brothers nodded their heads, indicating that Jiang Liu was indeed more attentive to today's meal than usual.

The bean sprouts, in particular, are crisp and refreshing, crystal clear, and have never been eaten before, making them extremely novel.

It's just that it didn't take long for suddenly, there was a sound of footsteps, and then, Jiang Liu could see that the old host was coming, and there were a few people beside him.

In addition to the two dressed as servants and maids, they are naturally two middle-aged men and women around forty years old, presumably Zhang Yuanwai and his wife who came to Jinshan Temple to repay their vows this time.

Seeing that the old host came with Zhang Yuanwai, several senior brothers also put down their jobs and stood up.

"Zhang Yuanwai, our meal today is the ...... that Liu'er is responsible for cooking", the old host of Fa Ming said with a warm smile on his face, and said to Jiang Liu, looking enthusiastic.

Zhang Yuanwai looks like he is about forty years old, his figure is slightly fat, and although the clothes on his body are not silk and satin, they look like the fabric is not bad, at least not coarse linen.

While Jiang Liu was looking at him, Zhang Yuanwai was also looking at Jiang Liu carefully.

"Little brother Liu'er, these meals you cook are very delicious, can you let me go to your room to have a look?", after looking at Jiang Liu for a while, Zhang Yuanwai asked.

However, although he was asking, he didn't wait for Jiang Liu's reply, and walked directly into the room with his legs raised.

"What's the situation?", looking at the appearance of this member rushing into the room in a hurry, Jiang Liu looked confused, and at the same time, looked at the old host with inquiring eyes.

Didn't the old host accompany Zhang Yuanwai to fast? How did he bring Zhang Yuanwai here for no reason?

"Liu'er, Zhang Yuanwai not only has a store in Chang'an City, but also opened a tavern in partnership with a friend", seeing Jiang Liu's inquiring eyes, the old host didn't explain much, just whispered, and then followed into the room.

The old host's words made Jiang Liu's expression suddenly.

Although the temple hopes that they can spend the incense ceremony, the elimination rate is more than ninety percent after all, so the old host can be regarded as thinking of a way out for himself?

If you can't pass the incense ceremony and have to leave Jinshan Temple, then you can go to Zhang Yuanwai's tavern to get an errand.

Somewhat moved in his heart, Jiang Liu followed the old host into the room.

I saw that Zhang Yuanwai seemed very interested in his seasonings, such as steamed meat powder ground with rice and spiced star anise, such as some sauces he had blended, and such as the jar of salt that was as crystal as snow.

Zhang Yuanwai, his last gaze fell on the small jar of salt, stretched out his hand, twisted it lightly, put it in his mouth and tasted it.

"Little Brother Liu'er, where do you get these fine salts? As far as I know, even Chang'an City can't buy such good quality salt, right?", Zhang Yuanwai turned his head and asked with his eyes shining at Jiang Liu.

"This ......", Jiang Liu didn't know how to answer Zhang Yuanwai's words for a while.

This is the fine salt that I filtered and refined with the salt from the temple, but it seems to be a very good technology for this era, right?

Jiang Liu hesitated and didn't speak, Zhang Yuanwai quickly understood that these salts were definitely not bought, otherwise, what could not be said?

"Little brother, I'm willing to pay ten taels, no, twenty taels of silver, are you willing to teach me the method of making fine salt?", Zhang Yuanwai asked as he stared at Jiang Liu with bright eyes.

Twenty taels!?

Hearing this, several senior brothers in the temple all gasped, and their faces were full of surprise.

So much money is enough for the expenses of Jinshan Temple up and down for more than a year.

"I'm sorry, I also got these salts by accident, I don't have a way to make them", although twenty taels is a lot, but for Jiang Liu, fighting monsters by himself can also make money, and he is not in a hurry to ask for this money for what.

Besides, although refining fine salt is not a difficult thing for me, it is a difficult method to buy for this era.

I only want to get my hands on it for only twenty taels of silver, this is trying to pit myself, right?

"Okay, that's a pity......", hearing Jiang Liu's words, Zhang Yuanwai looked sorry and shook his head.

Even the senior brothers next to them had disappointed expressions.

In their opinion, just one method can be exchanged for twenty taels of silver, which is definitely a windfall for Jinshan Temple.

Unfortunately, Jiang Liu did not understand such a method.

For Jinshan Temple, Zhang Yuan's trip to the house was just a small episode.

It was not early, and they didn't stay too much outside Zhang Yuanwai, seeing that Jiang Liu didn't know how to refine fine salt, they didn't dwell too much, but went down the mountain with regret.

"Master, is that salt very good? You are actually willing to pay twenty taels of silver, so much money, you can buy a house", on the way down the mountain, Mrs. Zhang couldn't help but ask curiously.

"What do you know about this woman, if I can master this method, what is a mere twenty taels of silver, and then we will be able to buy a big house on Suzaku Street," Zhang Yuanwai replied to his mother-in-law's words.

"Suzaku Street, which is the most prosperous place in Chang'an City, a big mansion costs at least a thousand taels of silver!", Mrs. Zhang exclaimed in surprise when she heard Zhang Yuanwai's words.

A thousand taels of silver? That's a suffocating number.

Although the Zhang family is the richest man in Jinshan Village, in fact, the family has more than 100 taels of silver, even if you add the industry, the equivalent is only 3 or 400 taels.

A mansion of more than 1,000 taels of silver? That would never dare to be imagined.

"It's a pity, it's a pity that the little novice doesn't know this method", after realizing the value of this method, even Mrs. Zhang was extremely sorry.

"Don't you understand? Does he really not understand?", without speaking, Zhang Yuanwai turned his head on the mountain road, glanced in the direction of Jinshan Temple, and his eyes flickered.

In the end, it is occupied by greed and ferocity......
