A doctor who travels through two eras
Chapter 683: Yunnan Pu'er Tea
On the bank of Panlong River and at the intersection of Zhuji Street in the old city of Kunming, there stands a traditional building that resembles an ancient arrow tower.
Above the door, the plaque with the words "Yingjiang Tower" in gold on a black background is particularly eye-catching against the backdrop of the flying eaves and brackets.
Led by local bigwigs Commander Cao and Director Zhao, Lin Sanqi and Shen Guoming walked into this time-honored restaurant chatting and laughing.
Although Fu Hongliang was a subordinate, he was a family member, so naturally he stayed by his side.
Director Zhao said with a smile:
"Old Shen, Xiao Lin, this Yingjianglou is amazing. Although it doesn't look very big, with only two floors, their cold water beef is a specialty in Kunming.
The cold beef slices at Yingjianglou are famous for their softness and melt-in-the-mouth texture. When dipped in sesame paste, it has a unique flavor that makes people want to eat more. "
Commander Cao added:
"In addition, their beef in clear soup is clear and the meat is delicious, fat but not greasy. In addition, their specialty cold chicken is tender and juicy; the roast duck with crispy skin and tender meat is also loved by KM citizens. It will definitely satisfy you two."
Lin Sanqi looked around and asked, "Is this the Hui Muslim Restaurant?"
Shen Guoming, with his hands behind his back, also showed interest:
"Normally there are more halal restaurants in Beijing, like the famous Donglaishun. But I've heard that beef and mutton in the north are completely different from beef and mutton in the south, so I'm going to enjoy a good feast today."
Yingjianglou is now a state-owned restaurant, and even if it is a time-honored brand, it has to follow the rules.
That is, you go to the window to order first, and then go to another window to pick up the food. The waiter will not bring it to you. This is the rule all over the country. What kind of class is it that you still need to be served?
Zhao Youxia and Cao Zhiyang began to rush to order food, which meant paying the bill.
Lin Sanqi was looking at the price list above and said to Shen Guoming next to him:
"Godfather, look, mutton is 80 cents a pound, and beef is 86 cents a pound. This is much cheaper than in Beijing."
The price of raw beef in Beijing is 70 cents per pound, and the price of raw mutton is 76 cents per pound.
(Is beef or mutton more expensive? The data varies. Can you come to a conclusion?)
After hearing this, Fu Hongliang smiled and explained:
"We in Yunnan cannot be compared with Beijing. You have seen the conditions here. We are poor, so the prices are relatively cheap. Look at this restaurant. There are not many people eating at noon."
Lin Sanqi nodded:
"Yes, last time I went on a business trip to Xining, beef and mutton were cheaper there, so I ordered 2 yuan of meat, and ended up eating it until I had to lean on the wall. It seems that a pound of mutton is enough for only 5 cents."
Shen Guoming added:
"It's not a matter of money. We also need meat coupons. They are so precious. Look how distressed Lao Zhao was when he paid for the meat coupons. I guess we will have eaten up all the rations for the whole family this month."
"Oh, I really didn't notice."
Lin Sanqi quickly squeezed forward and took out a handful of tickets from his backpack:
"Lao Zhao, come here, I have a meat ticket, use mine, use mine."
Lin Sanqi bought a lot of old grain coupons, meat coupons and the like from an antique market in another time and space, and the country gave him a lot of extra coupons to take care of him.
Zhao Youxia was delighted, but when he got the meat ticket, his face fell:
"Hey, Xiaolin, your meat ticket is from Beijing, and this is from Fushan. It's not our Kunming meat ticket. It's useless. This thing is not circulated throughout the country."
Lin Sanqi shrugged: "Oh, I thought it was a national meat ticket. There's nothing I can do about it. So, give me a few more pounds of beef. I like to eat it, hehe."
Zhao Youxia gritted his teeth and laughed:
"Okay, today we will serve you well, the God of Wealth, haha. Lao Cao, hurry up and take out all your meat tickets, I think I don't have enough for one person."
Cao Zhiyang felt a little sorry for his own hostage, but he also knew that he would not be able to catch Lin Sanqi without sacrificing his child, so he gritted his teeth and took out all the tickets in his trouser pocket.
There are five grown men here today, and all of them (Director Zhao is also a retired soldier), so naturally they have big appetites.
There is a table full of meat and vegetables. More than ten kilograms of meat coupons have been sold today, so this is already enough meat for my mouth.
Even though both of them were high-ranking officials, the monthly meat ration for each person was only 2 jin. If they were small cadres like Fu Hongliang, they would only have 8 jin per month.
Of course, if we talk about ordinary people, each person is allowed 2 taels of meat per month, but the key is that you can't buy it.
From this, it can be seen that General Cao and Director Zhao, who were treating the guests privately, had definitely spent a lot of money. From another perspective, their ambitions were not small. After leaving Yingjianglou Hotel, several people walked towards the Military Academy next to Cuihu Park.
The Military Academy was closed for visitors today, and the entire attraction only received two tourists, him and Shen Guoming.
Sitting on the edge of the playground of the Military Academy, Lin Sanqi decided to go for a walk, as he didn't have much time to stay in Yunnan.
"Old Zhao, and Commander Cao, you two big leaders are accompanying us, which makes me and my godfather feel bad. And my brother-in-law is not working to be a tour guide, which is a waste of time.
Now there is no one around, you guys tell me, what do you want? If I can do it, I will do it. But before you ask, you should think about what supplies you can provide me.
Let me make it clear first, I am not a god, I cannot conjure up penicillin. This drug is as valuable as gold in China, and it is also not cheap abroad. There is no such thing as a free lunch, and it is definitely not possible to get it for free. "
Lin Sanqi must make three rules. He traveled through time to generate traffic, not to be a saint.
Director Zhao saw that Lin Sanqi had already gotten to the point, and he also said seriously:
"Xiao Lin, we are old friends. How about the ham and tea we provided from Yunnan last time?"
Lin Sanqi smiled bitterly and said:
"Come on, Lao Zhao, the ham tastes really good, but foreigners can't get used to our ham. They have their own smoking methods, such as Spanish ham.
How much can I eat if you let me eat alone? Besides, you two also fought in the war, so you should know how expensive a bottle of penicillin is, right? "
Shen Guoming added: "We secretly bought it from Shanghai. A bottle of penicillin costs four dollars."
"Godfather is right. Back then, a bottle of penicillin cost four dollars. It's not that expensive now, but it's still not cheap. Now the domestic supply of penicillin is almost entirely smuggled in by me alone..."
Originally, the largest source of penicillin in China was Hong Kong, but the price of smuggled in from there was also very high, with a bottle costing dozens of Hong Kong dollars.
"So everyone should understand my difficulties. Our Lin family cannot become a milk cow."
Director Zhao sighed after hearing this:
"Xiao Lin, how could we not know your difficulties? But we are also in real difficulties. Look at what we have in Yunnan now?"
Lin Sanqi rolled his eyes and said with a smile:
"You have a lot of good stuff in Yunnan, such as Zhaotong Gastrodia elata, Wenshan Panax notoginseng, and Polygonatum odoratum. These are all precious Chinese medicinal materials. If you can find a way to get them, can't you exchange them for penicillin from me?
But let me make it clear that I want the best of these herbs, pure wild ones. I have no use for the ordinary stuff, and I can't exchange it for penicillin either."
When Director Zhao heard this, his eyes lit up:
"Really? Chinese medicinal herbs can be exchanged for penicillin? I thought you only wanted wild ginseng from Changbai Mountain."
If you want Chinese medicinal herbs, Yunnan has plenty of them. Due to its special geographical environment, a large number of wild medicinal herbs grow here, which can be collected endlessly in a short period of time.
Lin Sanqi gave another example:
"There is also Pu'er tea. I am still very interested in tea. However, Pu'er tea has its particular origins. I don't want all kinds of tea."
Director Zhao asked anxiously:
"It's just tea, Xiaolin, tell me, as long as we have it in Yunnan, I will definitely find a way to get it for you."
Lin Sanqi had traveled back to the present day last night and copied some information about the origin of Pu'er tea from the Internet, so he quickly took it out:
“The place names in Yunnan are too difficult to remember, so I made some notes here.
For example, there is a county called Menghai in Xishuangbanna. This county is great, it is simply a treasure county. It is said that there are two mountains in this county, Laobanzhang and Nannuo Mountain. I want all the Pu'er tea produced by these two mountains.
In addition, there is a place called Bulangshan Township in this county, and I also bought all the Pu'er tea produced in the ancient village of Bulang.
For example, there is an autonomous county called SJLZZZZBLZDZ. Oh my god, this name is so hard to remember. There is a Bingdao Village in Mengku Town in this county.
Hey, there are several old tea trees in this village, and I want the Pu'er tea made from these old tea trees.
For example, the Pu'er tea produced in Jingmai Mountain, Mengla Tea Mountain, Kunlu Mountain, Yibang Tea Mountain, Mahe Mountain, etc., has economic value. I can buy it at a high price, or I can exchange it for enough penicillin for you. " (End of this chapter)
