Chapter 258: 12000 Silver
Jiang Daoxuan froze when he heard this sentence: "Didn't I come to this restaurant to treat Brother Xu to dinner?"
Xiao Ye on the side took it for granted: "That's right, didn't you say please? Please return it, is it very contradictory?"
Jiang Daoxuan: "..."
Back then Mr. Xu was so caring, he gave it ten taels of silver, why did he become not wanting face after getting along with this Xiao Ye for a while?
After the dishes were on the table, Xu Qing stuffed the ten taels of silver into her bosom contentedly.
Why are the dishes served on one table instead of all?
Because there is no room for all the dishes on a table.
The expensive dishes in this restaurant are quite the essence of high-end restaurants in later generations. The presentation is exquisite, so exquisite that you are not willing to use your chopsticks, but the amount is just barely between your teeth.
It's not bad if three people can get three mouthfuls per person.
It turns out that garnishing has been around since ancient times!
Moreover, Da Chu's presentation is much more fancy than the modern ones.
Take the dish in front of Xu Qing as an example. The recipe is called Phoenix Gui.
First use a few carrots to carve a delicate Phoenix, and even the feathers are carved out. The tail feathers and the neck can almost form a ring, which is very cool.
But he didn't eat this Phoenix, but the few mouthfuls of dishes placed around Phoenix.
Is this the life of a high-quality man in Dachu?
For example, Xu Qing wouldn't do that, wouldn't it be enough to fill his stomach?
[Off-topic: Restaurant owner: Why do you think this thing is expensive? 】
Isn't this thing expensive on the plate? !
Xu Qing ate a few mouthfuls and looked at Jiang Daoxuan and asked, "Brother Jiang is the nephew of Jiang Xiang's family?"
Look, as long as you pay off the money, you will immediately become Brother Jiang. This person is really realistic!
Jiang Daoxuan can somewhat see the shadow of a Master from him.
Jiang Daoxuan nodded and said: "My grandfather is indeed a great Chu Zuoxiang."
Xu Qing nodded, sure enough.
Actually is not Xu Qing predicts things like a god, in fact, Jiang Xiang's family in the entire court is surnamed Jiang, the only one in the capital, don't guess whose family is it?
Afterwards, under Xu Qing's questioning, Jiang Daoxuan began to talk about his bizarre life.
Why is it weird?
Outrageous and legendary!
Jiang Daoxuan, the grandson of a prime minister's family, it is outrageous to be a Taoist priest, but he can also learn a strange Qinggong, and aspire to the Martial Forest, which is called legend.
Think about Jiang Daoxuan, who has been learning health and Qinggong from the Master since he was a child.
And what about the people of his age in Beijing?
Trying hard to be a playboy, no, trying to be beaten by Xiao Ye after becoming a playboy...
According to Jiang Daoxuan's narration, the matter is as follows:
More than ten years ago, a Taoist priest accidentally refined something that would explode when exposed to fire during pill refining, and after several improvements, he named it Fireworks.
When the Taoist temple was too poor to make ends meet, the Taoist priest began selling fireworks to subsidize the Taoist temple.
But I never thought that this thing could be so popular, even to the point where the supply exceeds the demand.
Sales have been good for several years in a row.
One year, when the Taoist priest was selling fireworks in the prime minister's mansion, he met Jiang Daoxuan, who was young and ill, and a group of imperial doctors who were trained like his grandson.
But the Taoist priest was able to rejuvenate, and after many imperial doctors watched the Taoist priest's mysterious operation, Jiang Daoxuan's strange disease was cured mysteriously and mysteriously.
Afterwards, the family members thought that the Taoist priest was some kind of god and celestial master, and felt that Jiang Daoxuan was in danger, so they named him Daoxuan and asked him to follow the Taoist priest up the mountain to practice Taoism. .
In the following time, in order to treat Jiang Daoxuan's disease well, he stopped selling fireworks, but announced the formula of fireworks, so that ordinary people can also set off fireworks.
Fireworks quickly became popular in Chu, Zhao and Zhou Zhou countries, and became an indispensable thing to celebrate every year and festival.
Hearing this, Xu Qing couldn't help sighing: "That Taoist priest is really a man of high morals. In order to treat Brother Jiang wholeheartedly, and to let everyone, rich and poor, old and young, see the brilliance of fireworks, he even selflessly sold the fireworks to the people who were in short supply. The formula of his fireworks was published, and he even taught Brother Jiang such profound martial arts, I admire him very much."
Xiao Ye put down his chopsticks and said, "Actually, Brother Xu, there is nothing to admire. If I were the Daoist, the Prime Minister's family gave me 10,000 taels of silver, and I would give it all. He wants to learn from him." What do I teach, who wants to brave the cold weather to buy fireworks with 10,000 taels of silver?"
Xu Qing: "..."
So it turns out, is it because you are being self-indulgent?
He was really touched just now, but Xiao Ye ruthlessly poured out a basin of cold water.
Jiang Daoxuan stroked his forehead, but did not speak. It seems that what Xiao Ye said was true.
Ten thousand taels of silver!
Give it without blinking an eye, is the prime minister's family so rich? !
At this moment, Jiang Daoxuan suddenly felt someone looking at him, he raised his head and met Xu Qing's fiery gaze.
Jiang Daoxuan couldn't help leaning back: "Why is Brother Xu looking at me like this?"
Xu Qing said: "Brother Jiang~~, can you teach me your kind of Qinggong?"
That kind of Qinggong is quite amazing even to his own wife, even Xiao Ye, who has practiced martial arts for many years, can't catch up, which shows how amazing that Qinggong is!
There is a saying that goes well, in the world of martial arts, everything is invincible, only speed can not be broken!
As long as you are fast enough, others will not be able to catch up with you. If you do the math, wouldn't you be invincible?
Maybe even, during a fight, when the person who chased after him gets tired, can he look back?
In this way, Qinggong is really a good thing!
Jiang Daoxuan pursed his lips: "This..."
Xu Qing said: "Didn't Brother Jiang say that if there is anything that Brother Jiang can use, feel free to speak up?"
Jiang Daoxuan was stunned for a moment: "Didn't the ten taels of silver be paid back?"
Xiao Ye looked at Jiang Daoxuan and said, "Returning your money and using you, are these two things in conflict?"
Why did Jiang Daoxuan find this sentence very familiar, Brother Xu really learned from Xiao Ye!
Look at this not wanting face, there is no third one in the entire capital of Chu!
Jiang Daoxuan coughed and said: "Well, after all, it is the martial arts of the master. When I see the Master next time, I will ask the Master. If the Master agrees, I will teach it all."
Xu Qing nodded and said: "It should be, I'm sorry, Brother Jiang, ten thousand taels of silver is fine."
Jiang Daoxuan: "..."
Didn't you just ask for the Master's approval? Why are you still talking about money?
If this is Master's character, once money is involved, it's hard for the old Master to disagree!
