    Although the Zeng family has fallen, a starved camel is still bigger than a horse. Compared with the courtyard that the Chen family entered once, the shrinking Zeng family is still as big as three Chen families.

    Master Zeng relied on rent collection, and still has some real estate. Although it is not as beautiful as before, he lives a leisurely life. He will go to restaurants in three to five days.

    Go to Haixiangyuan to eat Haicuo, go to Yueman Building to eat fish curd, and go to Fuxing Building to eat preserved meat.

    The small life is much more beautiful than that of ordinary small families.

    Especially since the troublesome courtyard house was rented out, no, it should be said that it was sold out now, and the people from the Chen family moved in. Master Zeng could smell the fragrance wafting from their house every time.He scratched his heart once, and the next day he must go to a restaurant to eat a delicious meal, so as to make up for the emptiness that smells delicious and can't eat.

    The Chen family didn't know what they were doing recently. The smell didn't disappear within a day, but it lasted for a while every day. It made Master Zeng salivate, but he couldn't eat, so he was too embarrassed to come to ask.

    After all, used to be a tenant of own house, and had never seen it before. After selling the yard to them, didn't have any excuse to come to the door and say, can ask for a stutter?

    So Master Zeng's heart began to scratch again, but this day he saw an unknown house built by the Chen family not long ago, and someone from the Chen family climbed into it.

    Master Zeng was stunned when he saw it. He saw two young guys lifted up the bamboo poles, set them up, and then moved something to dry.

    what is that?But, isn't it jerky?

    But why is it different from the jerky he usually eats?

    Looking at the bright red color, crystal clear and oily, it is very attractive.

    The people of the Chen family are really, if there is anything delicious, just hide it in the house and eat it. Every day, they use the fragrance to poison their neighbors, and now they are still drying it on the roof of the house.Everyone sees it, right?

    Mr. Zeng thought about the aroma when cooking these sauced meat, swallowed a few mouthfuls of saliva, and then went to Fuxing Building to eat wine, no matter how much he ate, he couldn’t taste the taste. What flashed in his eyes was the stubble on the bamboo poleStubble Sauce Meat.

    I can't tell that Mrs. Chen's family is so rich that they prepare so much meat for the New Year's Eve!

    Master Zeng was considered a regular customer of Fuxing Building, so shopkeeper Zhang naturally wanted to take care of him. Seeing that Master Zeng had lost his appetite, he asked with concern to express his cordial greetings.

    This is a big question.

    Alas, isn't the Chen family who lives behind Master Zeng's house the fourth Miss Chen's house in Yanlai Lane?Their family made sauce meat?Still on the roof?

    A few days ago, he begged his grandpa to sue his grandma to buy Miss Chen Si’s meat. The supply of the two Fuxing Buildings was in short supply. After the stock was out, the number of diners who came to visit decreased, and the diners who came were also asking when it would be available.To eat that flavor of bacon again, heard that would have to wait another year, so smiled wryly.

    The regret and pity on their faces made Zhang Zhang not only guilty, but also very heartbroken: Oh, if it was normal, it would be great if Miss Chen Si could make such delicious cured meat!

    Now, after listening to Mr. Zeng, immediately realized that Miss Chen Si had made a new product. Although it was not cured meat, but according to the description, it was sauced meat, so why not rush to grab the product before others?

    Immediately, shopkeeper Zhang called a carriage and ran to Yanlai Lane. His eyes lit up when he saw the meat hanging on the bamboo poles in the courtyard.

    Chen Nianguan never thought shopkeeper Zhang would come so quickly. It just so happened that the first batch of sauced meat was ready to be harvested. They counted about sixty pieces. Naturally, Chen Nianguan would not sell them by the catty.

    A joke, no matter what, this sauced meat is also made of pork. In the minds of the common people in this era, mutton and beef must be more expensive than pork. Even the dried meat that is baked with sauce and dried is also pork. She wants to open a cattyThe price exceeds that of beef and mutton, and people may feel that it is not worth it.

    The second senior brother's social status is really not high at the moment, isn't the highest value at the time when the modern age is the most proud and elated? Isn't it more than forty yuan a catty?Later, it was lowered and returned to its original shape, hey!

    So this sauce meat cannot be sold by the catty.

    She added a lot of expensive spices here, especially oyster sauce, but she spent money to buy oysters and boiled them hard. If it is not expensive, is it worthy of her hard work for many days?

    So Chen Nianguan opened his mouth wide and pointed to the thick sliced piece of sauced meat: "Eighty Wen." Then he pointed to the thinly sliced sauced meat: "Fifty Wen."

    She considered the size when cutting the strips, and tried to cut them evenly and keep the same size, so that they could be sold by strips at this time.

    Shopkeeper Zhang tasted the sauced pork slices sliced for him. They were very fresh and had a different flavor from the cured meat. really don’t know how Miss Chen Si learned so many pickled sauces with different flavors.

    Just because the goods are good doesn’t mean that the shopkeeper Zhang is a fish at the mercy of others. You can tell that the price is inflated. He is also a shrewd person. How could Chen Nianguan let Chen Nianguan pump money so easily?

    So he shook his head, no, the two bargained, and finally settled the deal at an average price of 50 Wen.

    "Okay, I see that you buy a lot from shopkeeper Zhang, so I sell you cheaply, so don't say anything outside."

    After handing over the three copper coins, shopkeeper Zhang couldn't help but feel a little regretful. Besides, it would be nice if this sauce meat would be available earlier. The business of Fuxing Building is also decreasing these days.I basically do business for people in the city, and because the supply of preserved meat was cut off a few days ago, I also lost a lot of customers.

    But now with this batch of sauced meat, it can properly restore the decline.

    Shopkeeper Zhang launched the sauced meat series with great fanfare immediately after returning home, and Fuxing Restaurant was full of diners. Master Zeng went to the restaurant downstairs of Fuxing Building as usual that day, and suddenly saw the sauced meat series launched, his eyes widened.Is it the sauced meat he saw drying on the roof of Chen's house?

    I ordered a portion, cut them thinly, and stacked them into a wreath shape. The pieces were red with white in the middle, and sniffed one piece. Isn’t it just the scent wafting from the Chen family’s yard?Take another sip, it is very mellow, Master Zeng finished the sauced meat with wine, it was delicious.

    After drinking enough, Master Zeng thought about it.

    It turned out that the Chen family's sauced meat was for sale. I don't know if I went directly to the Chen family to buy it, would they sell it?

    If it can be sold, do you still need to go to Fuxing Building to eat such delicious sauced meat?

    You can enjoy yourself by staying at home.

    So after Master Zeng came home, he called his beloved fourth grandson and asked him to go to Chen's house to ask.

    Zeng Silang and Zhang Erlang were classmates who quickly got to know each other in Qingyun Academy.

    Because Zeng Silang is also good at learning, his articles can often be ranked first with Zhang Erlang's, and the two are considered rivals on weekdays.The entire ethnic group was gone, and couldn't help feeling sorry for them. After finding out that the two lived in the same direction, and seeing Zhang Erlang often walking, guessed that his family was poor, so invited him to go with the car.

    It would be a fool not to ride in a car, so Zhang Erlang took the Zeng family's carriage every day with peace of mind, even today.

    At the intersection of Yanlai Lane, Zhang Erlang was about to get out of the car, but was stopped by Zeng Silang: "Brother Zhang, don't worry, I'm going to Yanlai Lane today."

    Zhang Erlang was stunned.Although he said that he lived in Yanlai Lane, he never mentioned the specific address. Could it be that Zeng Shilang wanted to visit his house?

    But that was Miss Chen's home, how could he just take his nephew there?

    No, no, even if Zeng Shilang is a nice guy, he hasn't asked Ms. Chen yet, what if she makes Ms. Chen angry?

    "Zeng Silang, my family..." For some reason, when he mentioned this "family", Zhang Erlang's ears turned red, and he coughed dryly before going on. Zeng Silang smiled, "Don't worry, Zhang Erxiong, I just accept my grandfather.So I asked you to go to Yanlai Lane to do a small matter, if Second Brother Zhang arrives at your house, ask the driver to stop, and you can get off the car yourself."

    Only then did Zhang Erlang feel relieved. When the carriage drove farther and farther and finally stopped at the gate of Chen's house, he was surprised. Why did the driver stop before he told him to stop?

    Looking back, Zeng Si looked apologetic, "Brother Zhang, I'm going to this family's business today, let me get out of the car first, and I'll ask the driver to take you home."

    Is he going to Miss Chen's house?What do you want to do?

    Zeng Silang got out of the car and saw that Zhang Erlang got out of the car too, so he was so surprised that he wanted to ask something. Xuan Xuan poked her head out from the courtyard gate: "Brother, are you back?"

    Zhang Erlang responded with a smile, and hugged Xuan Xuan casually.

    Zeng Silang was quite surprised. Wasn't it sold to Miss Chen Si?Brother Zhang also lives here?Doesn't he have something to do with the Chen family?

    Chen Nianguan happened to be in the yard too. He was very surprised to see Zhang Erlang came back, followed by the fourth son of the Zeng family. After Zhang Erlang explained, he realized that Zeng Silang is now Zhang Erlang's classmate.Explaining his intentions, Chen Nianguan readily agreed: "Our sauced jerky, one piece is 80 renminbi thick, and 50 renminbi thinner. I don't know how much Mr. Zeng wants?"

    Zeng Silang hissed lightly, with a pained expression on his face, then he glanced at Zhang Erlang in embarrassment, and said, "Miss Chen, please get me one of each."

    So Chen Nianguan went to the backyard to get the dried meat with sauce and wrapped it for Zeng Silang. Zeng Silang took out 130 Wen and handed it to Chen Nianguan. When he left, Zhang Erlang sent him to the door. Zeng Silang looked back at him., although his face was suspicious, he didn't ask anything after all, and quietly got into the carriage and left.

    Chen Nianguan watched Zhang Erlang come back, and asked, "Do you want to pack two for Master Fan Shan?"

    Zhang Erlang was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and nodded: "Okay, I'll buy two, one fat cut and one thin cut."

    Ms. Chen thought of giving Fan Shan Changjiang jerky, it must be for him.

    "Miss Chen!" Chen Nianguan turned to get the jerky, and Zhang Erlang stopped her again: "That one, Chen Nianjian, coincidentally, is in the same class as me."

    Chen Nianjian?Chen Nianguan was stunned for a moment, and almost forgot who Chen Nianjian was.

    After thinking for a while, finally remembered that Chen Nianjian was the second son of the Chen family's second wife, her cousin.
