."sweet.
He beat the miserable master to become an official in a few words. 6 Guangzu ordered people to write down the names of those who asked for official positions, and he walked to the silence. He reached out and said, "Please, brother."
He smiled silently and said, "Brother Wutai, I've caused you trouble."
6 Guanghuan smiled softly and said, "It's just for trouble."
Silent smiled and said, "I'm embarrassed to say this." Then he pulled Li Shi beside him and said, "Let's go, let's go in."
Li Shi was a little stunned, but still followed behind in obedience.
The three of them entered the office of the Ministry of Personnel and came to Li Zan, the "Wenxuan Qing Lisi" in the East Cluster Court, who opened the door of the signing room and invited them in. After watching the tea, the guest of the host sat down. Cai Ran Li Shi said, "Do you dare to ask about this brother's name, Taigao?"
Li Zan said a little uncomfortable: "Sir, 6, Li Shi, whose courtesy name is Hongfu, is from Quanzhou, Fujian. He was formerly a Ph.D. because Grandfather Ding left office, he is now in office and is waiting for a new position." To put this article bluntly. It was because my grandfather died and I went home to mourn for three years. But when I came back, I found that my position as a professor at the Central National University had been occupied, so I had to come to the Ministry of Personnel to ask for another position.
6 Guangzu nodded when he heard this, looked silent and said, "Brother and Lord Li are old acquaintances?"
Chen Si laughed and said, "Yes. Duodong's old friend is a long time ago. When he was in Suzhou a few years ago, he dealt with him a lot." In order to improve the admission rate of students, Chen Si naturally studied the "Li Shi Bao Book" carefully, which can be called a divine friendship for a long time, and it is not a complete lies.
Li Shi's lips twitched a few times, but he didn't say stupid words like "I don't know him," said Li Shi.
6 Guangzu nodded and smiled, "If this happens, I can't say it's better if I don't help this." Then he ordered people to take the list of Imperial College, Hanlin Academy, and Zhanshi Mansion to see if there are any vacancies to be filled, and those under the seventh rank and below officials can be reused. He can proficiently, just report later. The doctor of Imperial College is just a small official of the eighth rank, and it's just a matter of 6 Guangzu's words.
Taking advantage of this space, 6 Guangzu asked silent again and said, "Brother, what are you doing?"
"Zhao Butang of the Ministry of Rites has opened a letter of introduction, I have to hand it over." As he said silently, he took out a letter from his sleeve and handed it to the 6 Guangzu with both hands.
6 Guangzu took it with both hands and said, "Just send someone to send it here, why bother to bully it again?"
"If you are familiar, you can't be chaotic. Xiao. said silently: "Besides, it's been more than ten days since I came back, and I haven't seen you. I'm so frightened that I thought about it in my heart.
6 Guangzu laughed loudly when he heard this, "I will invite you to this afternoon.
As he said that, he said to Li Shi, "Brother Hongfu wants to be with you too."
Li Zan smiled awkwardly. He knew that he should say "I treat you to you, but I am too short of money. I have to treat them to vegetarian stuffing, so how dare I open this mouth?
However, the 6 Guangzu had never thought about letting him treat him. He turned his face and smiled at Chen Si, "Uncle heard that you were back, and he had been talking about it for a long time. Our grandfather could have sex again. However, his Majesty suddenly went into seclusion, so he had to go to the guardian first and wait until he came out before talking." Li Shi was stunned and thought that this was still a **? Looking at Chen Si, it turned out that the relationship was so tough, no wonder he was afraid of being outside.
He smiled silently and said, "Yes, I miss my teacher and brother very much, so I'm waiting for him to come out."
Li Zan is confused again, what kind of seniority are they all?”
After a while, the clerk came back, leaned in the ear of the 6 Guangzu, and said a few words softly. The 6 Guangzu nodded and signaled that he could go out.
When the clerk left, 6 Guangzu said: "Doctor of the Hanlin Academy, Doctor of the Zhanshi Mansion! Doctor of the Imperial College, which one does Hongfuye want to choose?" He had no power to promote officials, so he could only arrange it at the same level.
Li Shi was so mixed in his heart. He came to Beijing several months ago, but because he had no money to give gifts, he tried his best to make up for the gaps. He would have to sleep on the streets if he went down. Unexpectedly, he could choose three yamen at a glance, which made him feel relieved. He felt a little more angry.
In the end, he decided to go back to the Imperial College. Although "a good horse will not be reborn", he was a little juren, and in the eyes of others, he could only be considered a bad horse. If he went to the yamen like the Zhanshi Mansion of the Hanlin Academy, who would he teach himself? Who could he listen to his own nagging? So he should go back to the Imperial College and teach those students, so that his "Li's exam-taking ** can still be useful.
There is someone in the yamen who is easy to do, and this result is true. Li Shi has not accomplished for several months, but now he has the care of 6 Guangzu, and in less than a quarter of an hour, he has received the appointment letter he has always dreamed of.
Holding the thin piece of paper in his hand, Li Shi said with great emotion: "If I had known this, I would have beaten that old bastard, so I would not have to be angry with the birds these days."
Shen Mo and 6 Guangzu couldn't help but smile, and stood up and said, "Let's have a meal, Brother Hongfu
Li Zan took the appointment letter in person and said to the two: "It is said that I should treat you, but you two know that you really can't afford to treat me when you look so poor. Xiao.
The two of them smiled and said, "Remember first, and don't forget each other when you become rich in the future."
"Hehe" Li Bei smiled and said, "Let's go for the next life." This statement made the two choke very hard.
Shen Mo hurriedly smoothed out the situation and said that Brother Hongfu was used to joking, and Wutai was used to the habit of giving it to him.
6 Guangzu was also well-educated. He smiled and said, "It's okay, it's okay." Dogs. These people are easy to make money and enjoy it. It's reasonable to achieve the catering industry. In Beijing, you can find the variety dishes from all over the country as long as you can think of them.
But you may not be able to find something you can eat, because in this city with strict hierarchy, restaurants and restaurants are also served in four levels. The highest-end one is the big restaurant, which is open in Dongsi, Xidan, Gulou, and Qianmen. These are the most prosperous areas in the capital. They are all high-end large courtyards, with tall and wide inside, exquisite decoration, and the dining tables and chairs are the most mahogany. The worst calligraphy and paintings hanging on the walls are from the Southern Song Dynasty. Even as small as bowls, plates, spoons and chopsticks, they are beautiful and exquisite, with a whole set of sets. In the spacious courtyard, there are permanent stages. In addition to the guests' meetings, there are also opera troupes that allow guests to eat and listen to operas.
Thinking about it with your toes, you can know that these are all places where you spend money. In fact, you may not be able to enter even if you have money. Because people specialize in high-ranking officials and nobles as their customers, commonly known as "serving the house gate". Even ordinary officials and ordinary businessmen who want to go to their meals will always get a polite but rejecting reply: "I'm sorry. Our customers are here.
If you are not convinced, say, "Why don't you treat me when you look at so many empty seats?"
The answer will definitely be: "That's a place for a certain adult" It is obvious that you won't make any profit.
. Are these big restaurants stupid? Not that? People have figured out the psychology of the upper class. Real nobles may not have to use gold bowls and silver chopsticks to eat dragon teams, but they must be very helpful.
In addition to these coquettish restaurants, Beijing City has the most popular and most famous restaurants, which are all over the city. These restaurants are one level lower than those of the big restaurants, and are generally opened in ordinary courtyards or shops facing the street. There are single-story and two-story restaurants. There are no more than a dozen or dozens of spacious banquet halls, and there are no large theaters like a single room downstairs, and the upper floor is suitable for drinking casually, while the upper floor is suitable for banqueting guests.
There are also plaques, calligraphy and paintings hanging in the single room, but they are all bought from a few taels of silver in the Liulichang. The dining room is not so particular, just clean and flawless.
If the restaurants pay the most attention to style and pomp, then the restaurants win by the quality of the dishes. The target customers are ordinary officials, merchants, and Nayu citizens, and even the nobles like to come to these places when they are not showing off, because these restaurants are the essence of "eating in Beijing". The dishes are rich and the taste is diverse. It is more suitable for feasting than a big restaurant that blindly pursues light and elegant style, and it is much cheaper.
However, ordinary people cannot afford to eat restaurants at will. The corresponding to them is the inconspicuous "restaurant shop". There are at most one or two rooms in the alleys facing the street. The store is very narrow and the whole table cannot be made. It only serves home-cooked cooking, and the taste is relatively salty. In order to eat less and eat more, it is clearly a place to care about the fullness, and the target is ordinary people, and rich people are disdainful.
In fact, even ordinary people will never go to the restaurant to hold a banquet. They just come to fill their stomachs, eat when they come, and leave after they finish eating. They will save trouble. On the side of the road, put a long table, place two rows of benches, and at most a few bamboo poles to support a straw shed to hide the rain and sun for guests. They sell dumplings, buns, pies, dignity, noodles, and I will serve pickles and cold dishes. Diners are all poor, and ordinary citizens will disdain. The sanitation conditions are very poor, but the price is cheap. There are also some picky foods, food trucks, etc. Push them and sell them along the streets and alleys to attract some residents in the alleys, and the stalls are basically the same level.
Four grades of restaurants. Corresponding to the four classes of Beijing, everyone is tacitly aware of each other and looks for their own food. They rarely have the same random strings as in the south of the Yangtze River. It makes people sigh that no one can compare to the people in the capital. 6 Guangzu has lived in the capital for several years and knows every restaurant. He leads the two straight to the Yinkeng Bridge north of Shichahai. On the way, he smiled at them, "We southerners are never tired of food, but in fact, the Beijing restaurants cannot make that feeling. Even the chefs from the south, once they arrive in the capital, they seem to be infected by the roughness of the north and can never get thinner."
"Brother Wutai is still a foodie." Chen Jianzan said to Li Zan: "Brother Hongfu, we have to be at a disadvantage in this regard." Although he was a little cold in his family, he had already eaten all kinds of delicious food in the world for more than ten years. This is just to save face for Li Shi.
Li Shi didn't say anything this time. First, he was hungry, and second, he was also reflecting on his words. He was really not a human being to two people who helped him. 1"※
While talking, the carriage arrived, and 6 Guangzu smiled and said, "This time we have some authentic northern flavor.
After getting off the car, I saw the plaque hanging high in the restaurant, which read "Mobei Barbecue, five large ones
.
"Do you want to treat us to barbecue?" said silently, "I have never had a feast for many years."
6 Guangzu smiled with some thoughts and said, "The owner of this restaurant is said to be the old chef who followed Emperor Yongle to fight against Mobei. Even Master Yongle praised it for his unique skills in barbecue.
"Really or not?" asked Chen Silently smiled.
"Whether it is true or fabricated," 6 Guangzu smiled and said, "But they are a century-old shop, and they are one of the best in the barbecue shops in Beijing."
As he spoke, he had already walked into the hall. As soon as he entered, a waiter with a clever appearance, wearing a small hat and a white towel on his arm came up and said with a smile: "Oh, I said why did you keep calling me today? It turned out that Liu Master, you are coming, and the younger one is here to pay your respects to you." As he said that, he smiled at the silent two and said: "You two, I have to pay your respects to you." As soon as he entered the door, he couldn't see this passion in the Southern Hotel.
6 Guangzu asked with a smile: "There is still a place upstairs?"
"Look at what you said. Even if you don't have it, you have to make it free for you. The waiter smiled and said, "It's still an old place, Room No. 2, A?"
"Yes." 6 Guangzu nodded, and the three of them followed the hall to the second floor. As soon as they sat in the spacious room, the waiter immediately sent a hot towel and asked the three masters to wipe their hands. They asked a crisp sound in their mouths: "What do you want to eat today, barbecue or stir-fry?"
"Nonsense, what else can you eat here?" 6 Guangzu cursed with a smile.
Xiaode knew it, but he couldn't ignore it. The waiter smiled and said, "I just bought a batch of Hetao Little Sheep yesterday. The number is limited. I'll leave one for you. Let's eat it?"
"How much does one cost?" 6 Guangzu asked with a smile.
The waiter stretched out a slap and said, "This number."
"Please treat me as a sucker." 6 Guangzu still smiled.
"You noble man eats precious food and drinks a precious waiter and smiles, "It's not easy to transport those lambs. You have to take good care of them along the way. You drink springs when you are thirsty and eat grass when you are hungry. There are only twenty of them. Do you always say they are worth the money?"
"Previous one." 6 Guangzu laughed and said, "Your mouth can blow the old hen into a golden phoenix."
All we have to tell the truth." The waiter made the tea for the three of them, served some small dishes and snacks, bowed and left, "Three Masters waited." When Li Shi saw that there were lit charcoal inside, and there were some pine branches mixed with slap wood. He thought to himself that this was a barbecue brazier.
The waiter sat on the brazier with a round iron meat roast. After it was heated, he placed the sliced mutton slices neatly on the meat roast. He introduced as he arranged them: "This is better than soy sauce, vinegar, cooking wine, minced ginger, and braised shrimp oil for three hours, and it must be full of flavor.
6 Guangzu is a regular visitor, so he naturally doesn’t need to introduce him. He waved his hand and said, “Come on, go and do it yourself. It’s even more interesting to eat.”
"You always have a romantic mood!" The waiter put down the meat clip when he heard this, and asked him to be silent. "When it's cooked later, the two masters will pick it up with bamboo chopsticks, rinse it in a bowl of cold water before eating, it's so clean." After that, he went out and closed the door for them.
I saw the fire in the single room and the smoke was simmering. I was silent. I held a wine glass in my left hand and a chopsticks more than a foot long in my right hand. I ate while baking and eating, and it looked very thick and wide, and it all felt very interesting.
But what surprised the 6 Guangzu was that Chen Mo and Li Shi were more skillful than him, the old customer. They obviously had eaten it a long time ago. They couldn't help but say curiously: "I haven't seen such a barbecue restaurant in Jiangnan? When did you eat it?"
The two of them said in unison: "I have worked hard for many years" and they all have a look of emotion and memories.
Although the answers are the same, the memories of the two were completely different. Simon remembered that winter, in Zhang Jing's Luyuan. He and Xiao Aman and Rou Niang secretly barbecued meat. Seven or eight years have passed since the blink of an eye. Mrs. Wa was also seriously injured in a battle with Lu Kou, and forced the territorial soldiers to return to Guangxi. She died. Xiao Aman was only a teenager and became the successor of ***. This made Chen Si very worried. I wonder why Mrs. Wa made such a decision.
Li Shi was thinking that he was much more fierce. Several scenes appeared in his mind, including the sea, sailboat, accomplices, eating meat, and drinking in big mouthfuls. That was Teacher Li’s life in the martial arts world before he passed the imperial examination. Yes. Teacher Li once went to the sea and was an outstanding smuggler, but that was all before the hunchbacks spread.
