After a bowl of hot fried noodles, Zhao Zhen drank the hot water brought by the old man and said with a smile: "Old man, your cold food is very special!"

The old man smiled a little restrainedly: "Your Highness, you are so complimentary. I just learned how to stir-fry Leng Tao. Cai Ji uses this iron pot to cook. After thinking about it, I can also stir-fry Leng Tao! So I added some more

Vegetables and other ingredients are put in, and the thick oily red sauce is very popular with the guests. Even the poor man from Kaifeng Mansion likes it!"

The more the old man talked, the more proud he became, as if this skill was a unique skill passed down from family to family. Zhao Zhen looked very happy: "Old man, be careful, others can learn your method, but everyone can make cold pottery like this.

"

The old man took two steps forward and gave Peng Qi some noodles and whispered: "It's okay. I found that the biggest advantage of this iron pot is that it can fry anything. Yesterday at home, my son poured lard mixed with brown rice into the pot.

, Your Highness, please don’t tell me that it tastes really good!”

Damn it, Zhao Zhen's greed was aroused again when the old man said it. The memory of lard fried rice kept stimulating him. He looked at the old man with a silly smile and said, "Can you cook just one portion for me?"

"Of course, as long as His Highness doesn't dislike my craftsmanship!"

"I don't mind it, I don't mind it, I'm going to teach you a way to guarantee that you will have a full house in the future!"

Peng Qi looked at the old man and the young man playing with the iron pot by the stove, and was so surprised that he couldn't open his mouth from ear to ear. His Highness never used the title "Gu" in front of the people, but in front of the officials, he called him "lonely".

The childishness that should belong to this age...

"Add the chopped mutton, use a little less soy sauce to enhance the color, just a little bit. Add the freshly scrambled eggs and stir-fry for a while. That's right!"

Zhao Zhen put in the mutton just cut from the foot shop, added eggs, and a bowl of fragrant lard fried rice came out of the pot. The aroma of lard combined with the golden scrambled eggs and rice, Zhao Zhen was amazed.

His appetite increased greatly, and the old man served a homemade pickled side dish: "Your Highness, try this side dish. It is made by my mother-in-law. Although it tastes bad, it is enough to go with the meal!"

He used chopsticks to scoop up half of it and put it into Peng Qi's bowl. He was so frightened that he waved his hands: "Your Highness, you can't do that!"

"You just eat when Gu tells you to eat. If I can't eat, isn't it a waste? Every grain is hard work!"

Peng Qi held the big man in his arms and kept cooking. The old man on the side looked at it and said with a smile: "That's right. Young people can be strong by eating more."

The fragrant lard fried rice attracted many people, but they hesitated after seeing Zhao Zhen. Many people around the Kaifeng Mansion knew the prince's appearance, especially the cinnabar mole between his eyebrows, which made people recognize him at a glance.

.

"It's delaying the old man's business, Peng Qi, let's go!"

The old man smiled and said: "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter!" Seeing that Peng Qi was about to pay the bill, the old man's expression changed: "It's my honor for you, Your Highness, to come to dinner. How can I ask Your Highness to pay the bill? Go ahead!"

"That's not okay! It's natural to pay for meals. There's no reason why I won't pay because of my status!"

"Your Majesty, you look down upon me! You taught me how to make fried rice and you can pay for the meal. If you ask me to pay the bills, you will slap the old man in the face. How can I be a human being in the future?" The old man was so anxious that he almost cried.

It seems that he has earned an unknown amount of money after receiving His Highness's guidance. If he accepts the money now, his spine will probably be broken.

Zhao Zhen looked at Peng Qi and said: "Thank you so much for your hospitality, old man. I will come here often in the future!"

"Your Highness comes often. It's not too late for the old man to be happy!" The old man bowed deeply to Zhao Zhen who was leaving. He just had a bite of lard fried rice. Compared with what he had eaten at home before, it was like heaven and earth.

Business must be good, not to mention that even His Highness praised it!

Passers-by who were attracted by the lard fried rice immediately came forward when they saw Zhao Zhen leaving, "Old Liutou, what kind of food are you eating? Even His Highness is satisfied with it?"

"Can't you hear it? It's lard and brown rice!"

Old Liu Tou said angrily, these people are really unruly, His Highness came to inquire about people's food as soon as they left.

"Bring me a bowl quickly. The food that His Highness likes must be delicacies in the world. Old Liutou, you have made a profit now!"

"No more! No more!" Old Liu Tou frowned at the anxious look of the visitor, "Tomorrow the old man will be here to buy. Today we only have fried and cold food."

Everyone shook their heads in disappointment: "Then let's have a bowl of fried cold Tao!"

The iron pot on the stove began to play beautiful music again and beat happily in the hands of Old Liu Tou. Zhao Zhen looked at all this from a distance and said to Peng Qi: "Helping others is the source of happiness!"

"What, I just saw that this old man's business will be very good in the future..."

After crossing Zhuque Street, it immediately became lively. It was the new year again, and it was as lively as ever. Almost all the shops on both sides had new facades, in order to attract customers, and various novel advertisements were painted with paint.

Painted on the wall, this is a new trend brought by Cai Kee.

Even shops that buy charcoal and firewood have pictures on the wall at the entrance, so that people can see the products in the store clearly at a glance. However, this is different from later generations. There are no false patterns and all the content is true and trustworthy.

Yes, it can be seen that merchants are based on trust.

People's learning ability is very strong. Cai Ji's advertising and promotion was quickly learned by other shops and used in all walks of life to accelerate the economic development of shops in the city. This is what Zhao Zhen hopes to see. In fact, Cai Ji

Isn't it his experimental field?

The wide Nanmen Street has been separated with a red cross. This is also Zhao Zhen's move. The middle is left for carriages and oxcarts to travel, while passers-by pass on both sides. This is the only Nanmen Street in the entire Tokyo city, and it has become a lively place.

The orderliness is well received by people.

In the past, there were always situations where horses were frightened and could not control themselves and hurt people, but since the red cross was put on, this kind of thing has never happened again. The ministers of the DPRK and China mean to do this on all streets in Tokyo City, so-called

Everyone goes their own way.

But Zhao Zhen objected. Other streets are different from Nanmen Street. Nanmen Street is wide and there are few shops on both sides. With a little persuasion, they will not encroach on the street. But the small merchants and hawkers in other places are all on the street.

Not to mention the stall where Zhao Zhen was eating cold food was also set up on the street. If a red cross was put to separate it, the business would be impossible. The urban management system of later generations would not be adapted to the Song Dynasty.

, in a relaxed economic environment, everyone has the ability to do business.

In the distance was Cai Ji's teahouse. Zhao Zhen stretched out and patted Peng Qi on the shoulder and said, "Let's go in and have a look."

Peng Qi quickly gestured to the guards around him. Since the prince became the governor of Kaifeng, their workload has obviously increased. Each of the guards is carrying a hand crossbow and a special lining recently developed by the Ordnance Department.

The armor and even the hood are lined with iron armor and can be used as a helmet by just pulling it up. It can be said that it is armed to the teeth.

Even Chen Lin was shocked when she saw the equipment of the crown prince's personal guards. Each person's equipment actually cost one hundred guan! You must know that the most elite of the Forbidden Army, the Upper Fourth Army, only had 30 guan each.

The Wan surname transaction has begun, and people are flocking to the Daxiangguo Temple. Zhao Zhen left after looking at it. Peng Qi knew that the prince still had prejudices against Buddhism, but the longing eyes of His Highness made him want to laugh but did not dare to laugh. He still looked angry.

Really like a child.

"Your Highness, you should go in and take a look. After all, this Daxiangguo Temple is different from other Buddhist temples. It is the family temple of the Song Dynasty royal family..."

Seeing that Peng Qi had seen through, Zhao Zhen coughed awkwardly, "The New Year is approaching, and the business of the Wan surname in Daxiangguo Temple is getting more and more popular. Why don't you go in and have a look?" After saying that, he went in without waiting for Peng Qi's answer.
