Chapter 64: Rosewood and Eternal Seedlings

The next day, another post was posted on the poster column in front of the Fulai Inn, saying that it was a lot of money to buy rosewood that was more than thick for one person, and it must be more than three years old.

Rosewood grows very slowly. Usually, it takes hundreds of years for a tree to be held by one person to grow. Moreover, if it grows to be held by one person to be held by one person, only about half of the thick tree core can be used. The outside is full of white waste. Only the core inside is dark brown and has rich and varied fine wood. Moreover, if it is buried in the mud for more than three years, its color will become black and shiny, and the pattern will become layered due to the difference in the time of formation. The mountains are like freehand landscapes, which are extremely beautiful. The longer it is buried, the more prosperous the wood will become, the more beautiful the pattern will be, the more beautiful it is in the pattern, and it will be as heavy as iron.

In contrast, the rosewoods in the later generations of Fujian, Zhejiang and Jiangxi were not as famous as Hainan Huanghuali. It was probably because it grew in deep mountains and dense forests, and it was extremely difficult to harvest. Moreover, the mountains and roads in Fujian and Yue were dangerous, and transportation was extremely difficult. Even in the harmonious dynasty of later generations, there was only one railway in the Minyue land and there were not many highways. However, if a vehicle from the north would mostly sigh in the Qixia Ridge area and turn around and leave. In the 1980s, Wang Kuang saw a convoy from Shandong. After climbing halfway Qixia Ridge, the driver was timid and stopped moving forward and turned around. However, Wang Kuang personally liked the Minyue rosewood far better than Huanghuali, because Huanghuali was far less rich and changeable patterns than Minyue rosewood, and the hardness and brightness after polishing Hainan Huanghuali were not as good as Minyue rosewood.

Although there are not many Minyue rosewoods in later generations, it is already a sight to be able to find wood with a diameter of ten centimeters, fortunately, people in the Minyue land still have a subconscious awe of rosewoods. They will take care of them diligently when they see seedlings and small trees. Moreover, some deep mountains and dense forests are respected by locals as sacred places. Most people do not step in easily, so they are not as rare as Hainan rosewoods.

After Huang Liang said that he was going to sit on a few cushioned backrests and presented them, Wang Kuang had the idea of ​​rosewood. If he could make the reputation of the Minyue rosewood at this time, the ability of ordinary people at this time would never damage the rosewood. After the value of Minyue rosewood soared, he could take advantage of the situation and guide people to consciously plant rosewood. Although it would take hundreds of years to grow, the fields and forests of any big family did not last for hundreds of years, and even if the dynasties changed, there would be no major changes, unless the family committed a serious crime or became a loser when participating in the seizure of power. Therefore, theoretically, it is still feasible to guide people to artificially plant rosewood for the purpose of family inheritance.

I have to say that Fulai Inn has a great appeal. One month after the posting was released, two thick rosewoods were transported by Shen family in Xianyang, Pucheng, and it is said that it had been sinking to the pond for five years. I originally wanted to use it for my own home, but I heard that Jian'an Fulai Inn wanted it, so I sent it. There was only one condition, which was to change the chili sauce.

I heard that it was the Shen family in Pucheng, and Wang Kuang's gossip and thoughts arise. The Shen family, which was later famous minister of the Southern Song Dynasty and the famous Neo-Confucian master, Zhendexiu, was almost well-known in Pucheng in later generations. Although Wang Kuang was always very disgusted with Neo-Confucianism, this Zhendexiu was a rare good official. Within decades of official career, he did many practical things for the people under his rule, such as building bridges and paving roads, building water conservancy, building granaries, etc. Unlike Zhu Xi (also from northern Fujian), he did one thing, just talk but not practice. He just didn't know if the Shen family was the ancestor of the Zhendexiu family. However, Wang Kuang knew that the Zhendexiu family was extremely poor in his childhood, which seemed to be inconsistent with the local tyrants at this time.

After seeing the Shen family, I knew that there was only one Shen family in Xianyang, and confirmed that there was only one Shen family in Xianyang. This Shen family was the other Shen family, and it was probably lost later. Wang Kuang originally wanted to wave his hand and sell the retail rights of chili sauce in Jiangnan and other than Jian'an at a low price. It was considered to be a handful of help from the Shen family to avoid suffering from Zhendexiu in the future. But when he thought about this, he changed the fate of the Shen family. It is hard to say whether Zhendexiu will come out in the future. Besides, there are still hundreds of years since the Zhendexiu appeared. If the family really falls into decline, no matter how hard he works, he has to stop. But Wang Kuang did not bargain with the Shen family. How many

As soon as the other party opened his mouth to change 100 cans of chili sauce, Wang Kuang agreed. The manager of the Shen family, who was escorting the car, thought he had heard it wrong. He originally planned to get ten cans, which would be very good. But he heard that the chili sauce had been sold for 300 yuan per can in Chang'an, and ten cans were three guan. Although these two rosewoods were precious, they were only worth three guan at most. After hearing that Wang Kuang had not paid back the price, he gave 100 cans directly. He was overjoyed and even said that there were two rosewoods that had been buried in the pond for ten years at home. After returning, he brought it to Wang Kuang. When Wang Kuang heard it, he promised another two hundred cans of chili sauce next year. The manager of the Shen family was almost so happy that he was so happy that he was overwhelmed.

With rosewood, Wang Kuang found a carpenter and made six backrest stools according to the style of the stools on the second and third floors of the inn. However, the style was much more exquisite. The stool feet were no longer straight, but were changed to be curved according to the growth of rosewood. The fabric on the stool was also changed to thick cowhide, and it was split-shaped. The stool surface could be removed and cleaned separately. The cowhide was not nailed to the stool surface, but was fixed to the stool surface with four square copper hoops. In this way, if the cowhide was worn, it would be easy to replace. The last two rosewood was left with a lot of wood. Wang Kuang remembered that Queen Changsun's illness and needed to be sunbathed frequently, so he made an easy chair.

By the time the completion, it was already late November. It was late winter. Huang Liang saw that Hu bench was doing it and did not dare to neglect it. He wrote a note overnight. The general meaning was that when Jian'an Fulai Inn heard that Empress Changsun was a little ill, he was moved by the queen's kindness, so he and Governor Huang drove out several Hu benches and recliners to facilitate the queen's daily life. In the note, Huang Liang also specially wrote about how the food made by Fulai Inn on weekdays to make people's appetites, and ordered the shopkeeper Sun to "rejuvenate and return to a child". Wang Wufengshi had been able to get down on the ground with a cane after being conditioned by Wang Kuang for many years. After eating the food of Fulai Inn for several years, he also became healthy and healthy. He also praised Wang Kuang for being extremely intelligent and loved by the people of Jian'an. Wang Kuang himself was one of the survivors of Wang Village who were wronged as a thief, etc.

Worried that Wang Kuang would suspect that he had deprived him of his merits, Huang Liang also read the unimportant part of the memorials to Wang Kuang. As for the other state affairs mentioned in the memorials, Wang Kuang certainly had no right to know. Huang Liang did not expect to take the merits for himself, and the court would naturally include him as a share of the merits of the people of Jianzhou. He would not have to compete with Wang Kuang for his merits. Besides, he would not be able to argue with Wang Kuang in the future. In the future, his son would still need Wang Kuang's evil wisdom to help him.

Because it is not an important military and political matter, it is impossible to use the emergency post tour, but if it is calculated, it can be delivered before the New Year. Huang Liang called the post office official and asked him to send Hu Tang to Chang'an as fast as possible, so he would send him before the New Year. Since Fulai Inn usually knows that there are passing officials resting at the post station, he will send food. The post office official has received praise from the past officials. Therefore, whenever he sees that Fulai Inn is in this matter, he will give him instructions to choose the best carriage and the best post soldiers, so that the post soldiers can do their best. Of course, because of the same original

Because these postmen were all clapping their chests, saying that they would not mislead the affairs of the envoy and the little boss. Of course, Wang Kuang was also forced to bring enough braised and chili sauce to these postmen, so that they would leave some at every post. In this way, the postmen along the way would naturally give priority to the carriages and prepare the best food and grass. Having said that, even if they had no benefits, they would not dare to neglect. One was the envoy and the other was the younger brother of Wang Ling, who had now won the title of "Wang Laohu". If Wang Huang's brother was neglected, Wang Laohu would not give them good looks.

Everything was arranged, and Wang Kuang was idle again. In fact, he had never been busy at all. Many times he just talked and was doing all the labor work.

Seeing that there were a lot of varieties of vegetables in winter, Wang Kuang began to worry. He was just a guy who couldn't eat without green vegetables. But at the same time, if he didn't eat meat for three days, he would be so uncomfortable that he would get up in the middle of the night to find meat. In today's days, he didn't have to worry about meat. What made him worry about was how to grow greenhouse vegetables. Without plastic film and glass, he just thought about covering the straw mat at night and removing this method during the day. He would definitely not grow greenhouse vegetables. The winter in Jian'an is much colder than in later generations and can freeze during the day. Therefore, it is conceivable what the consequences would be if the greenhouses were exposed to the north wind. Even if the kang was burned under the vegetable field, it could only warm the soil, and the greenhouses were still exposed to the cold air, which could not solve the problem.

Fortunately, there were bean sprouts at this time. At least in winter, there were bean sprouts to eat. Wang Kuang also specially explained that the bean sprouts would give birth to two leaves before cooking. When the bean sprouts were tired of eating, the peanut sprouts would be sprouted. The germination period of peanut sprouts was longer than that of bean sprouts, and the plant was thicker, slightly thicker than that of chopsticks, so the taste was naturally very different. However, when peanut sprouts were sprouted, Wang Kuang told Zhu Si Niang to hide his hair and not see it. He also used the peanut alias Changsheng Fruit to give another name to Changsheng Seedling, and

Before cooking, Kuang Da pinched his head and tail, and used fine bamboo silk to clear the core of the sprouts and quickly sucked them with boiling water and stir-fry them with lard. Therefore, when the Changsheng Seedlings appeared on the table of the diners in Fulai Inn, it caused a sensation. Everyone was looking at the name of Changsheng Seedlings to taste fresh. Changsheng, who doesn't want to? Everyone said that they looked like bean sprouts but they were definitely not bean sprouts. The taste was strange and had a different aroma. The taste in the mouth was crispy, not like ordinary bean sprouts. It was also a bit of slag in the end.

Lin Quanmiao also came over. After tasting, he wanted to go back a few kilograms of the Changsheng Seedlings that pinched the head and tail. Wang Kuang did not hide it from him, and directly told him that this was the peanut seedlings and told him in detail how to cook. Wang Kuang already knew that the Lin family also opened a restaurant in Chang'an, and this Changsheng Seedlings should be helpful to the Lin family's restaurant business. There are few vegetables and vegetables in the winter of Jian'an, let alone Chang'an in the northwest?

"Erlang is good enough!" Lin Quanmiao, who was a little drunk, learned from Wang Kuang's tone, took his thumb and sniffed at Wang Kuang, and smiled.
