Blue Creek.

There is a thick layer of ice in the stream, and a plum blossom at the foot of the mountain beside the stream is also in full bloom.

Li Xiao didn't know what happened at the night banquet in Liangyi Hall. For him, his winter life was very peaceful and smooth.

The two acres of fish pond by the Blue Creek have been dug, drained the water, cleared the silt, piled up the dike, and even used the dug silt to create rows of taro fields under the dike. He also planned to plant mulberry and willow trees on the dike next year. Then the green willows will become cute and you can sit under the tree to fish.

The Li family's two shops in the town are also becoming more and more prosperous.

The restaurants managed by Dabiao have gained a reputation because of their exclusive cooking and are well-known. Many passers-by choose to eat here. Although the price is more expensive, they can eat extraordinary dishes. Even now the reputation has spread to Chang'an, and some Chang'an customers come to Lanxi Street to have dinner.

This made Da Biao more confident. He had already proposed to Li Xiao to open a branch. The first branch was to go directly to Chang'an and open a cooking restaurant in Dongshi.

The clinic run by Dr. Zhao is now as prosperous as it is.

Thanks to the popularity of medicinal wine, I am now completely free of worrying about selling it. What Dr. Zhao is worried about is that the supply of medicinal wine in Lijiazhuang winery cannot keep up.

Lao Zhao ran to Lijiazhuang winery every day and complained to his daughter that the supply was too slow. But Wanniang had no choice. Although there was no shortage of glutinous rice wine lees and the wine was sweating a lot every day, it was not simple to turn the wine into medicinal wine. Not to mention that the preparation and processing of various medicinal wine and medicinal materials took time, and with medicinal materials, it took a lot of time to soak it into medicinal wine in the end.

Lao Zhao and Li Xiao proposed to build another special medicine shop to purchase and prepare various medicinal materials for the medicinal wine shop. This will not only reduce the cost of medicinal materials, but also save time in medicinal materials processing. Li Xiao naturally agreed with this proposal.

However, it still takes time to soak the medicinal materials, and the supply of medicinal wine is still not increased.

Fortunately, Li Xiao is not in a hurry.

Nowadays, medicinal wine is very famous, but I am not in a hurry to make this hot money. Anyway, the reputation has been made and the supply of medicinal wine is in short supply, so it’s better to do some hunger marketing.

He still values ​​quality. Although medicinal wine should be classified as health care, it can also be regarded as a medicine, so it is not careless.

Jinchuang Medicine Wine Furniture, which is with Xue Cheng, Liu and Liu brothers, is also in full swing to prepare. With their connections, the progress is smooth.

Moreover, because this medicinal wine shop only planted Jinchuang medicinal wine for the army, it was much simpler. Li Xiao only provided medicinal wine recipes and liquor. There were several other companies including medicinal materials supply, packaging and production, and hiring workers and workers. They wanted money and people, which was very convenient.

Although the business is booming everywhere, Li Xiao has left everyone to others to take care of, so he is actually quite idle.

The cucumber vines in the space have withered, and the last crop of cucumbers have long been picked.

These cucumber vines were picked in total and earned Li Xiao the first pot of gold.

When Li Xiao pulled out these old vines, he was still reluctant to leave. He picked a few old cucumbers that were specially reserved and took out the cucumber seeds. The remaining vines were burned to ashes on fire, and became fertilizer on the spiritual soil again.

When the last bit of melon vines turned into ashes, Li Xiao found that a lot of thick fog suddenly surged out of the space, and the thick fog blocked his vision and could not see his five fingers.

The fog was enough to dissipate after a stick of incense.

When the thick fog dissipated, Li Xiao found that the land where the vines were pulled out seemed to have become larger. He looked carefully and found that it had indeed become larger.

It turned out that the spiritual land was surrounded by vast white fog and could not get out at all, but now the layer of fog seemed to have retreated a little.

The newly exposed land is deserted and there are still many weeds and shrubs growing.

Unexpectedly, the space and land could be expanded, Li Xiao thought about it. Could it be because of the cucumber vines?

Could this space be expanded in the future? When he thought of this possibility, he couldn't help but become excited. This space is very magical, and this spiritual land is even more magical.

Everything grows very quickly and not only increases production but also accelerates production.

While thinking, Li Xiao inspected the newly added land, not much, and it expanded by about one-tenth of it.

There are weeds on the ground, and occasionally there are bushes mixed with them.

When I have time, I have to flip through this place well.

As I looked at it, I suddenly found a few red spots.

The red was so familiar that he was stunned.

He walked over a few steps, walked closer, squatted down, looked carefully, and became more excited as he looked, and his breathing became rapid.

Isn’t the slender, fiery red pepper?

Look at the tree again, the green leaves are just pepper seedlings that are as tall as knees.

Oh my God.

Unexpectedly, a pepper tree appeared in this newly added wasteland.

After so long in the Tang Dynasty, Li Xiao was still not used to everything here, especially the diet. He tried his best to build a wok and cooked a stir-fry, but there were no chili, so many dishes still had less flavor.

People in the Tang Dynasty ate spicy food, but they used dogwood to enhance the spicy taste, and sometimes used ginger and garlic to increase the spicy taste. It can be said that the spicy taste in the Tang Dynasty people was actually different from the spicy taste in Li Xiao's perception.

Although dogwood also has a spicy flavor, it is completely different.

The spicy taste of chili is the real spicy.

I reached out and picked a red pepper, full and fiery red.

After wiping it a few times, I put it in my mouth and bit it, and then chew it hard.

A familiar spicy smell immediately exploded on the tip of the tongue, so familiar and so hot.

It was so spicy, hot, and a lot of saliva immediately poured out of his mouth, and he couldn't help but breathe, but Li Xiao was very excited.

Chili, real chili.

In the future, we can also eat chili peppers and have real spicy taste in the Tang Dynasty. The people of the Tang Dynasty should also have more real spicy taste in the taste.

Stir-fried peppers, chili powder, dried peppers, chili red oil...

This chili seedling must be well cared for. These chili must be made into seeds, so that they can have more chili seeds and plant more chili.

As for whether the people of the Tang Dynasty would get used to these chili peppers that were spicyer than dogwood and had completely different tastes, Li Xiao was not worried.

People in Guanzhong love pasta, and pasta with chili is definitely a good partner. Not to mention anything else, if the oil is splashed with chili red oil, the taste will definitely be extraordinary.

My red oil hot pot, my spicy chicken, my boiled fish...

For a moment, countless good dishes that could not be separated from pepper appeared in his mind, his mouth was hot and his saliva could not stop flowing.

The newly added pepper crops that were not available in the Tang Dynasty appeared on the ground, which shocked Li Xiao and quickly checked them everywhere. If some potatoes, sweet potatoes, corn and so on appeared again, it would be amazing.
Chapter completed!
