Chapter 416: The versatile Fang Jifan

Fang Jifan’s impression of Wujiang was that this person had colluded with Japanese pirates in history, but this was the case when he was transferred to the Zhejiang Examination Envoy.

However, the so-called collusion with Japanese pirates is not accurate.

To put it bluntly, the so-called Japanese pirates were just a group of aristocratic families in the southeast who colluded with officials and businessmen in order to make huge profits from maritime trade.

Now Wu Jiang is actually in office in Qingzhou Prefecture.

So……

Although almost everyone thought Wu Jiang was a good official, Fang Jifan disdained to take care of him.

He closed the memorial gently, pursed his lips, and spoke, "Your Majesty, the official voice is so good, but why is he still a local official?"

"What?" Emperor Hongzhi opened his eyes wide and looked at Fang Jifan in surprise.

Fang Jifan knew about Emperor Hongzhi's confusion, so he explained it seriously.

"I think there is a big problem with Wujiang, and there are not one or two people who know that he has problems. However, from the Ministry of Personnel and the local governor's office, almost everyone thinks that Wujiang is a honest official and a capable official. Logically speaking, such a talented person has been in office for many years and has sufficient qualifications in the local area. So why is no one promoted him?"

Emperor Hongzhi couldn't help but feel that there was something reasonable when he heard the words, but he did not immediately confirm Fang Jifan's statement, but frowned: "You continue talking."

Fang Jifan naturally knew this reason and could not convince Emperor Hongzhi, so he said solemnly.

"The only possibility is that many people have gained the benefits of Wujiang, or are protected by officials. In short, no one is willing to say bad things about Wujiang, or even the Ministry of Personnel. But although everyone mentioned this person because of interests or other reasons, everyone knows that they have too deep relationship with this person. Once the story is revealed, they will be responsible."

Fang Jifan secretly observed Emperor Hongzhi's expression. Seeing that there was no anger in his face, he continued to speak.

"Therefore, he has been in the local area, from this county to this county, from this prefecture, and from this prefecture to this prefecture... Otherwise, with the qualifications and official reputation of this person, he would have entered the court long ago. Wujiang, please ask Your Majesty to investigate thoroughly and touch his details to the sky. I firmly believe that Your Majesty will definitely gain unexpected results at that time."

"..." Emperor Hongzhi was silent, his face full of astonishment.

He could not imagine that a person who was praising him from top to bottom was a traitor, which was unacceptable to Emperor Hongzhi.

Emperor Hongzhi glanced at Zhu Houzhao, then looked at Fang Jifan, and then said lightly: "I have ordered the factory guards to investigate thoroughly. I hope the result is not what you said."

He then looked at Zhu Houzhao. With just one memorial, you can know the hidden truth behind the memorial?

This seems unlikely.

Emperor Hongzhi raised his eyebrows, but he did not show any expression the next moment.

"Well, where have you said just now? Yes, Zhenguo Mansion, Zhenguo Mansion, let's build it. Since the prince wants to do something, then do something, but..." Emperor Hongzhi had a deep meaning in his eyes: "When Zhenguo Mansion is built, the prince must go there on time to pay the Mao on duty, otherwise, I will immediately sack."

I thought that Your Majesty hoped that the prince could truly stand alone, but it turned out that he had the intention of using a state-controlled government to trap the prince. If the prince was like an ordinary official, he had to be on duty on time every day. Even if he wanted to run away, where could he still run?

Zhu Houzhao said: "My son obeys the order."

After coming out of the palace, Zhu Houzhao sighed, looked at Fang Jifan, and said excitedly: "You can also see that there is something wrong with that Wujiang."

Fang Jifan focused on the key points.

"There are big problems. I didn't expect that the prince's prince could see it too?"

Zhu Houzhao smiled happily, her face filled with pride: "Who is this palace? Huh."

Fang Jifan thought about it and did not continue the topic of Wujiang. Instead, he smiled and said, "By the way, Your Highness, I am afraid that I will not be able to go to the West in the past few days."

“Why?”

Fang Jifan could already see that a fish began to take the bait.

Looking at Zhu Houzhao with an excited and excited face, Fang Jifan said, "I am studying how delicious it is."

"beef?"

Fang Jifan shook his head.

"It's like killing pigs?" Zhu Houzhao asked.

Fang Jifan shook his head again.

Zhu Houzhao was happy when he thought that Fang Jifan wanted to make delicious food again.

"Then I have to let me go and have a look. Go to your mansion. It's a good idea. I'll come tomorrow morning. I have to let me eat this first bite, otherwise I will tell my father that you tied me up and went to Lingqiu."

Threat me!

Will Fang Jifan be afraid of your threat? Humph! Okay, you won!

Fang Jifan is not a particularly principled person, or his bottom line is still a little elastic. As long as he does not touch his fundamental bottom line, many times, especially in front of Zhu Houzhao, Fang Jifan just shrugged.

The next morning, Fang Jifan started cooking delicious food.

In the Fang family's kitchen, many chefs and chefs were driven out.

Wang Shouren looked at his mentor speechlessly, and they all returned to Beijing, but in the Hanlin Academy, they asked them to rest for two days before going to work.

So, they suddenly felt an illusion when they saw their mentors looking ready.

What is my mentor doing?

Tang Yin rolled up his sleeves and asked for help.

Ouyang Zhi couldn't count on it anymore, as if he was mentally retarded. Cooking was a fine job and had high requirements for the heat. If this guy beat him a little slower, what should he do if the kitchen caught fire?

Zhu Houzhao looked at Fang Jifan happily on the side, and couldn't help but ask, "What should I do?"

"Eat." Fang Jifan said.

"Oh." Zhu Houzhao nodded.

The ingredients are already ready, eggs, cow's indescribable extrudates, fruits, honey, oil, flour, etc.

Then, Fang Jifan began to tinker, smash the eggs, stir, and then put the cow's indescribable extrudate, honey, oil, and flour, and stir all of them evenly. In an instant, it was like a pot of indescribable liquid.

Of course, the most important thing is fresh yeast.

It was still the Ming Dynasty at this time, but there were no steamed buns, only steamed cakes.

There is actually not much difference between steamed cakes and steamed buns. They are just kneaded and put into a steamer to steam. But the only difference between steamed buns is the appearance of fresh yeast.

The method of making this fresh yeast is very simple. It is just fermented with sweet potatoes. The yeast is cultivated. With this thing, it is added to the flour to make the indescribable extrudate of eggs, honey, and cows expand during the steaming process, creating a fluffy feeling.

This fresh yeast was specially cultivated by Fang Jifan. With this product, the foundation of this pastry will also be found.

Fang Jifan carefully put the fresh yeast in it. He also prepared to cultivate more and use it in a farmhouse in Xishan. This is a big killer weapon.

Everything is ready, put the flour mixture into a round wooden mold and put it in a steamer to make Tang Yin fire.

"What, steamed egg cakes, why do you need honey? I don't like sweet foods." Zhu Houzhao said with a frown.

Fang Jifan glanced at him and said impatiently: "Who said he gave him food?"

Zhu Houzhao was so angry that she was half-hearted that she asked dissatisfiedly: "Who will give it to?"

"I myself." Fang Jifan said with a smile.

On the other hand, Fang Jifan proposed an ice wooden barrel. Obviously, it was made from an ice cellar. When he opened it, a sweet smell overflowed.

"What's this?"

"It's unspeakable." Fang Jifan wanted to tell him that this was cream, but it was indeed unspeakable. It was so confusing.

The way to make cream is very simple, it is just to store milk, add lemon and butter.

Of course, it takes some effort.

This Western Mountain is a treasure land, everything is available. This is Fang Jifan’s own territory, and he will do whatever he wants.

This bucket of cream was obtained from an ice cellar and was still filled with coldness.

It's probably over the busy work.

Behind him, Wang Shouren and others looked at their mentors one by one, all speechless.

Fang Jifan took the rag and rubbed his hands, and said, "Now you know, do you know what your teacher is teaching you?"

"Governing a big country is like cooking a small fresh food?" Wang Shouren thought for a while.

Fang Jifan shook his head: "No."

Tang Yin shook his head and said, "Understanding and action, people regard food as the most important thing, but they don't know how to govern the people?"

"Not right."

Zhu Houzhao grinned and said, "Cook."

"By the way." Fang Jifan looked at Zhu Houzhao with appreciation and said to Ouyang Zhi and others: "A teacher is a straightforward person. How can there be so many truths for you? Cooking is cooking. Will a teacher pretend to be profound because of this cooking? No! A teacher is not that kind of person. What he hates most are those pretentious people. Such people are the ones who hate the most. Remember, you should treat your own students as honest as a teacher in the future. Why? Only sincerity can break the falsehood of the world, and only reality can break the falsehood of the world. As a human being, integrity is the basis. Never learn from some people and act as hypocritical."

Wang Shouren and others were shocked.

Another vivid lesson.

Everyone saluted: "Disciples receive teachings."

Only Ouyang Zhi was silent for a moment: "The students will never forget the teachings of their teachers."

Fang Jifan glanced at Ouyang Zhi and finally knew why some people admired him so much. The old cadres said something casually, and the young people who were a little smart were all rushing to say yes.

I have never seen any world of veteran cadres. No matter how fast these young people are, they think it is natural. Instead, they think these people are too flattering and disgusting.

On the contrary, Ouyang Zhi's reaction was a beat slower than others. After the person finished speaking, he said that, and this gave a deep impression on people. And when he saw that he chewed the other person's words for a moment, it gave people a very real feeling that this person was. In the end, he was neither humble nor arrogant and said that he was taught by his disciples, which was perfect!
