"Well, my brother is still young, so he can learn calligraphy from the village teacher for the time being." Guangdan said while not forgetting to watch the movements of Master Wu's hands.

Seeing that he had already marinated the fish, he thought for a moment and added another sentence.

"In fact, if you are from Shu, you will probably like spicy food." After saying this, he put his hands behind his back as if nothing had happened.

Master Wu paused for a moment, looked up and asked curiously, "Do you know that people in Shu like to eat spicy food?"

"Hehehe, I heard from the old people in the village that grandpa, do you have any spicy peppers?" He looked up with an innocent little face, his eyes full of anticipation.

Master Wu frowned and thought for a while before saying, "Yes, there is, but it's expensive."

Guangdan also understood a little. Although there were chili peppers in Dali at that time, it was still different from the scene in later generations where chili peppers were popularized in all large and small vegetable markets.

"If you like spicy food, it would be nice to add some chili." Guangdan said and did not continue the topic.

In fact, he also knew that he was just trying his luck. To say how amazing this pickled fish was, it was not that amazing.

But when it comes to time travel, there are some things that you won’t give up until you try them yourself.

The restaurant kitchen is working very quickly. While the fish fillets are still being marinated, the fish soup is already ready.

Different from what we eat at home, this time we use pure fish soup, and filter out the fish meat and bones.

There were even some fresh bean sprouts in the pickles.

When the sauerkraut fish came out of the pot, Guangdan's first feeling was that it was worthy of being made by a chef. It was obviously not of the same level as the sauerkraut fish he had at home before.

At this moment, I was extremely glad that I brought the recipe with me instead of asking my mother to cook it herself.

Unexpectedly, Master Wu was quite satisfied with the dish and called all the apprentices in the kitchen to taste it carefully together.

I took a bite or two of the egg sandwiched in it and it tasted much better than the ones I made at home.

After eating the pickled fish, Master Wu came out of the kitchen with Guangdan again. This time, the two of them came to a room in the backyard of the restaurant.

"Please sit down. This is where I usually rest. Tell me what you think." Master Wu said as he poured Guangdaner a cup of hot tea.

Although Guangdan had some idea in his mind at this point, he was still a little confused if he was asked to tell the price of the recipe.

According to my memory from reading novels before, some people got dozens of taels of silver, some got hundreds of taels, and some had to be divided.

Now it's my turn, and I'm still a little uncertain.

"Or, give me a price. Maybe we can do business in the future." After Guangdan gave a hint, he pretended to be calm and waited for a reply with a smile.

Master Wu felt that he couldn't bully the little kid, so he thought about it and held out five fingers.

"Fifty strings of cash?" Guangdan asked with his eyes wide open, looking innocent and excited.

At this time, Master Wu's hand was neither retracted nor extended, and then he burst into laughter.

"Hahaha, you're quite bold. Do you know how much fifty strings of cash is?" As he said that, he looked at the little guy in front of him seriously.

After all, most children wouldn’t dare to ask for more than fifty strings of cash.

Guangdan scratched his head a little embarrassedly, and continued to ask in a frustrated manner: "Then, is it five strings of cash?"

"Well, although we have a restaurant in the county town, we can't compare with the restaurant in the prefecture town. Besides, we still need to improve your dish. Five taels is already a relatively high price for us."

What Master Wu said was true. The town is not big and the spending power is very limited. Their place cannot be compared with wealthy places.

It has never happened before in a restaurant to pay five strings of cash for a menu.

Seeing that the little guy looked a little confused, Master Wu continued to explain.

"Five strings of cash is a lot of money. The letter writers on the street only make about a hundred coins a day."

Guangdan tilted his head unwillingly, "Grandpa, how about six strings of cash? Let's hope for good luck."

"Hahaha, fine. Then let's pray for good luck and bring your brother to the restaurant later. Grandpa will treat you to a meal."

As Master Wu spoke, he stood up and touched the bald little head.

At this moment, Guangdan suddenly felt unhappy again. Is this the benefit of reading?

Invite them to dinner, no, should we invite Goudan to dinner?

Now that we have agreed on the price, I won't waste any more time. Six strings of cash is a lot of money, six thousand copper coins!

In the end, he carried a gray sack on his back and left through the back door like a little beggar, taking away six thousand copper coins.

Master Wu was really worried, so he asked the waiter in the restaurant to follow him from a distance.

Guangdan, carrying half a bag of copper coins, found Fang Cuihua and her group at the poultry market in town.

I watched several people crowding in front of an old lady's stall, spitting everywhere.

Guangdan was worried that it was too crowded and others would touch his sack, so he stood by and waited carefully.

The first one to discover the bare eggs was Arya. She looked at the sack on his back with curiosity, then continued to squat and study the ducklings.

At this moment, the sky and the earth are not as big as the duckling!

After the group bought the ducklings, Guangdaner finally came over.

He tugged at Fang Cuihua's sleeve and said crisply, "Mom, you asked me to carry this, but I can't carry it anymore."

After saying that, he handed the sack on his back to Fang Cuihua.

Seeing her son making faces, Fang Cuihua frowned, picked up the sack, and threw it directly on her back.

He didn't open it out of curiosity, which made Guangdan very satisfied. There was still some tacit understanding between mother and son.

Second Aunt frowned and felt a little uncomfortable when she heard Guangdan's words.

Is my sister-in-law hiding something from me?

My sister-in-law is hiding something from me now?

At this time, Fang Cuihua felt the weight of the sack on her back and smiled meaningfully at Guangdan several times.

Master Wu used a layer of straw to cover the inside of the sack, not because he was worried that others would see the shape of the copper coins from outside the sack.

But this weight is not ordinary, and Fang Cuihua can even hear a small sound.

"Sister-in-law, let's go over there and take a look?" Cao Lian said, pointing to the crowded area to the east.

Fang Cuihua shook her head, glanced at Guangdan, coughed lightly and said, "Take Erya and the others over to have a look. Guangdan and I have something to do so we have to go back first."

Without any explanation, he pulled up his bare sleeves and walked away quickly.

After walking a few steps, he turned around and shouted, "Have a good time shopping!"

Cao Lian:?

Arya:?

Peach Blossom:?

Although they looked confused, they reacted quickly and jogged to catch up.

What are you shopping for? You have no money!

Fang Cuihua didn't care how hard the people behind were chasing her, and she just slipped out of the town with Guangdan, leaving a shadow behind.

So much so that the restaurant waiter who followed over was amazed.

As expected of a kid who can sell cookbooks at such a young age, look at his mother!
