Zhuang Zhou, unemployed at home, unexpectedly obtained a time-space gate that could travel to the Tang Dynasty's Zhenguan era, and could also carry items with him. Thus, Zhuang Zhou embarked on...
Zhuang Zhou has prepared a lot of invitations for tomorrow's opening ceremony.
These were all prepared to be handed over to Wang Zhigui, who would write them personally and invite his business friends to come and show his support.
Especially in this age of etiquette, this kind of face-saving work still needs to be done.
Zhuang Zhou handed all the invitations to Wang Zhigui.
After all, he was in Chang'an City, and apart from Wang Zhigui, he had no other friends in business.
"Brother Chu, where did you get these invitations?"
Looking at the invitation that Zhuang Zhou took out, Wang Zhigui was already stunned.
Each of these invitations is so exquisitely made.
It’s full of ritual!
Especially since there is a greeting card inside the invitation.
Just write your name and the content is already there.
The most important thing is that these words are written so beautifully.
Of course, these words are all printed by a printer.
Without further explanation, Zhuang Zhou handed the invitation to Wang Zhigui and left.
Zhuang Zhou had no plans to return to the modern era tonight.
Instead, I plan to stay here for one night.
When we returned to the grocery store, Ma San was leading people waiting for Zhuang Zhou to have dinner!
It turned out that Ma San called the girl over specifically because he had to work in the shop during the day.
I also have to cook for everyone on weekdays.
Now the three main rooms in the backyard have been cleaned up.
Zhuang Zhou lived in the east wing, Ma San lived in the north wing, and Ma Xiaoling lived in the west wing.
As for Fat Tiger and Skinny Monkey, they cleaned up the ear room and squeezed into one room.
The remaining room was used as a warehouse.
The sun sets.
On the stone table in the backyard.
Three home-cooked dishes have been served.
Ma Xiaoling is really capable.
"Boss Zhuang, you're back. Let's eat right away!"
When Ma San saw Zhuang Zhou coming in, he quickly stood up and greeted him.
Fat Tiger and Skinny Monkey also hurriedly stood aside respectfully:
"Hello, Mr. Zhuang!"
This scene made Zhuang Zhou look like a rich landlord.
"Don't be so nervous!"
Zhuang Zhou smiled, came forward and asked everyone to take a seat:
"What are we having for dinner tonight?"
"Scrambled eggs with cucumbers, boiled radish with green vegetables, dried pickles, and a boiled fish."
Zhuang Zhou looked at the dishes on the table and smacked his lips.
All vegetarian.
Especially the vegetables and radishes, there was actually a whole bowl full of them.
"Are there no meat dishes?"
Zhuang Zhou couldn't help but ask.
"Yes! Isn't it just scrambled eggs?"
Ma San looked at the scrambled eggs on the table and couldn't help swallowing his saliva:
"Knowing that Mr. Zhuang would be back for dinner tonight, Ling'er even added fish!"
Zhuang Zhou said "oh" and didn't think there was anything wrong.
"The fish is ready! You can wash your hands and eat now!"
Ling'er carefully carried a pot of boiled fish and placed it on the stone table.
Zhuang Zhou couldn't help but lean over to take a look.
Damn it!
It really is fish boiled in water.
There is no seasoning at all.
Look at the green vegetables and radishes, they are also watery.
There is not a drop of oil.
The soup is so clear that you can even use it to raise fish.
Zhuang Zhou looked at the three men, then at Ma Xiaoling:
"Is this what you eat every day?"
Fat Tiger nodded innocently and said:
"Ah! It's delicious!"
Zhuang Zhou rolled his eyes:
"Don't you guys eat meat?"
Among the few people, Ma San was the first to react.
Very embarrassedly said:
"Boss Zhuang, we don't have any extra money. We only eat meat together during festivals. Tonight, we can only treat you to this."
Zhuang Zhou then remembered.
yes!
Someone is treating him to dinner tonight!
Damn it!
Suddenly, a surge of sadness welled up in my heart.
Is this how your employees live?
Then my boss is too incompetent!
"How much is pork per pound in Chang'an?"
Ma San, Fat Tiger and Skinny Monkey all shook their heads when they heard this and looked at Ma Xiaoling.
Ma Xiaoling thought for a moment and said:
"At the beginning of last month, it seemed to be seventeen copper coins per pound."
17 copper coins?
Let's calculate it based on 4.5 yuan per copper coin.
It’s about 76.5 yuan per pound.
Actually, this is no wonder.
In this era, people have nothing to eat.
Not to mention raising pigs.
Therefore, there is very little pork on the market, so it is naturally expensive.
After all, pigs are not like cows and sheep, which can grow meat just by eating grass.
Pigs can't do that.
Pigs are omnivorous animals, and eating only grass will only make them thinner and thinner.
And listen to what Ma Xiaoling said.
It seems that the last time I ate meat was at the beginning of last month.
These days are so hard!
"What about the fish? How much is a pound of fish?"
"Fish is cheap. This fish tonight is only two copper coins."
All right!
It seems that this fish is much cheaper than pork.
But even so, Zhuang Zhou could see it.
They rarely get to eat fish.
If I hadn't been staying for dinner tonight, this fish probably wouldn't have been on the table.
"Boss Zhuang, let's eat? I'm hungry!"
"Okay! Let's eat."
But soon Zhuang Zhou remembered something:
"Wait... I haven't washed my hands yet!"
Who knew that Fat Tiger would laugh and say:
"Boss Zhuang, my hands are not dirty!"
"My hands aren't dirty!"
As the skinny monkey spoke, he stretched out his hand.
Zhuang Zhou would not agree with them, if the space-time gate did not have its own sterilization function.
I don’t even know how many viruses I’ve brought with me!
Zhuang Zhou returned to the shop and took out a bar of soap.
