The Little Officials of the Song Dynasty - Chapter 246

Bai Yutang leaped down from the roof, as light as a leaf of duckweed. After landing steadily, he walked to the window and said, “What are you doing?”

Yun Yan smiled back and said what he meant, “What, do you have the intention to write a comment?”

Bai Yutang stroked his chin and thought for a while, “It sounds a bit interesting.”

He has always been picky, especially when it comes to eating, he is very delicate, but he has never thought of writing down his feelings and letting others know. However, now Yun Yan said back some time, he was a little moved.

Yun Yan went back and made persistent efforts, “I originally wanted to find a partnership with reporters from the Tokyo Daily, but they don’t know how to eat! I see, no one is more suitable than Wu Ye. You are a person who knows how to eat. It’s even more delicious.”

As Bai Yutang listened, his heart became more satisfied.

Yun Yan mentioned it again, and when their food essays came out, the readers’ praise rate would beat the editorial board and kick the comic strip.

Being encouraged by this, Bai Yutang immediately agreed.

Bai Yutang also likes to look around for some delicious food, so he writes some essays by the way, it’s just a piggyback. Moreover, Yunyan is a native of Tokyo, he wants to lead the way, maybe he can find some hidden delicacies.

Zhao Yunchu supported Yun Yan’s essay writing back, but he felt a little uncomfortable when he saw that Yun Yan was about to pull Bai Yutang into the company. Bai Yutang’s mouth was straightforward to put it nicely, and poisonous to say it badly. Will you offend many people?

“Then you… do you have to draw up a pseudonym?” Zhao Yunchu suggested that they wear vests, so at any rate other people can’t hate him.

Yun Yan replied: “That’s right! Five masters, do you have any ideas?”

Bai Yutang’s eyes rolled around, as if he really had some ideas.

Yun Yan shouted out in advance: “In this name, you are not allowed to bring a cat or something!”

Bai Yutang: “…”

Bai Yutang said angrily: “What do you mean?”

Yun Yan smiled back and said, “It doesn’t mean anything, that is, if you want to call yourself “Yu Mao Dad” or something, how can I have the face to meet the Zhan guard.”

Bai Yutang looked back at Yun Yan angrily, “Don’t you tell me, I really can’t think of a pen name like this!”

Yun Yan replied: “…”

He turned his head and looked at Zhao Yunchu: “Is it next?”

Zhao Yunchu glanced at Bai Yutang and said with a little “difficult”: “Although it is not, it is not far away. I think it is entirely possible for Bai Huwei to have such a name…”

Bai Yutang was going to be **** off by him, “Nonsense, I just wanted to call “Bai Yu be the horse for the cat”!”

Yun Yanhui and Zhao Yunchu both looked at him with incredible eyes, too shameless——

Bai Yutang snorted very proudly, “You asked me what I should be called again, and restricted me how to name it, then you might as well name it yourself and write it yourself!”

As Bai Yutang said, he was about to walk away.

Yun Yan returned with difficulty catching a suitable companion. How could he let him go, stretched out his hand and grabbed Bai Yutang’s sleeve, “Don’t go to the fifth master, the cat is the horse and the cat is the horse!”

He thought in his heart, when the big deal comes, I will throw the black pot on your white mouse, and ask the Zhan guard to talk to you about who will be the horse and who will ride…

At this time, Bai Yutang also thought in his heart, you kid is so cunning, then I will plant you in front of the smelly cat, hum…

The two looked at each other and both laughed.

“That’s it!” Bai Yutang dusted his sleeves and said, lifting his chin.

“Then please take care of Lord Wu.” Yun Yanhui also arched his hands.

…

Bai Yutang and Yun Yanhui reached an alliance agreement. After a few days, Yun Yanhui really planned a gathering operation and took Bai Yutang to eat private kitchens.

This private dish was learned by Yun Yanhui when he was in Tianqingguan. It is the craftsmanship of a Taoist master. This Taoist layman has been a cook for several generations. It is said that his ancestors had an imperial cook. When he came to him, although he became a Taoist priest, it is a family biography. His cooking skills have not been left behind.

Moreover, the Taoist priest also mixed in some mysterious and mysterious things that he had felt, and he could cook the five elements and gossip with a single meal.

Yun Yan had been here before, and this time he brought Bai Yutang with him. Because Yun Yanhui was regarded as his own by people from both the Buddhist and Taoist circles in Tokyo, although he didn’t come much, the master happily received him and made a meal for the two.

After Bai Yutang tasted it carefully, he chatted with the viewer again, and unexpectedly put forward two more constructive opinions.

Guanzhu’s cooking skills have been tempered over several generations. If you want to say whether you have made mistakes or omissions, Bai Yutang has eaten all over the country, and his suggestions are all other dishes that can be applied.

Guanzhu is a monk, so he didn’t feel unhappy about other people’s opinions, and promised to give it a try and invite them to eat in the future.

Then, Bai Yutang and Yun Yan went back to a famous restaurant to eat and go with wine.

After returning home, Bai Yutang really swiped his pen and wrote a review.

Yun Yan returned to a special request, be sure to describe the taste of the dishes in more detail. After taking a look, I was immediately happy. The dishes described by Bai Yutang are not only extremely attractive and salivating, he also described the cooking process.

Although it is impossible to write all the recipes of others, the point is that Bai Yutang’s writing style is really very… As the description is written in micro, when reading, as the food gradually matures, as if seeing the ingredients in person and smelling the aroma.

This more than meets Yun Yanhui’s requirements, it is beyond his expectations.

“Okay, okay! The fifth master is really brilliant!” Yun Yan replied and exaggerated, making Bai Yutang feel embarrassed, because the words he used were too numb, as if Bai Yutang had written something shocking. The poem of the crying ghost… is actually a review!

Yun Yanhui held up the pen and handed it to Bai Yutang, “Fifth Lord, please give me another point.”

Bai Yutang: “Score?”

“Yes, if the full score is 10, how many points does this dish achieve?” Yun Yan replied.

Bai Yutang pondered carefully, “So, it should be…”

“Wait!” Yun Yan raised his hand back, “It’s not a point, it should be a cat!”

Bai Yutang didn’t understand, “What do you mean?”

Yun Yan replied with a smile: “Let’s not say how many points, let’s say how many cats. This is more in line with Wu Ye’s pen name, and it is more in line with our mysterious style.”

——Whether scoring or replacing the score with a cat, at this time, it is actually an unconventional and eye-catching gimmick. It is shaping the image of a maverick author. To a certain extent, it can improve the authority value and Attention.

Everyone might guess why a dish is divided into one cat, two cats and three cats. Is it because how many cats the dish can attract?

In fact, this has aroused a kind of attention. Yun Yan said back that it didn’t make any sense. If it wasn’t for marking mice, he wanted to ask Bai Yutang to mark a few mice.

Of course, this is also based on the fact that the food reviews are good enough, otherwise it will be dry and no one will have redundant discussions.

Bai Yutang didn’t think so much anymore, and he swiped his pen: “Six cats!”

Although Bai Yutang didn’t criticize it, it seemed to him to be just average.

Yun Yan replied again: “Where was the restaurant later, did you write it?”

Bai Yutang frowned and said, “There can be no more two cats in that restaurant. Write, I have to criticize it.”

——Bai Yutang’s application is still very fast, just like a few cats and a few cats.

When Bai Yutang wrote a food review, Yun Yanhui still drew a fat cat on the side, using Sanmao as the prototype. Although it was a simple stroke, the essence was completely drawn. This is their score.

After Bai Yutang finished writing, Yun Yan looked back at this second article, which was mainly cursing, and couldn’t help but admire. I always feel…This article has even more embodied Bai Yutang’s strength, or characteristics.

In fact, that restaurant is not unbearable, but many people like it. In the article, Bai Yutang wrote vividly and well-founded about how rough their food is. It tastes rich at first glance, but in fact, it is not allowed to taste at all.

Bai Yutang, the appetizer of this restaurant, didn’t watch it in the kitchen. However, he knew exactly how the dishes were made. It was so rough because of the missing steps. By the way, he recalled the fine products he had eaten. There is no harm if there is no comparison. Yeah.

Although I didn’t swear, it was really hurtful to compare and compare.

Yun Yan returned to the “Tokyo Daily” after editing and proofreading the two manuscripts.

Yun Yan came back to submit his paper, and the editorial department was very embarrassed.

It stands to reason that many of them here are brought out by Yunyan Islam, or brought out by people who have been Muslim, Yunyan writes back news and they all know that it must be fine.

However, what Yun Yan sent back this time was not news, but food reviews. The writing is very moving, however, they are not sure whether such an article will be on the literary edition.

You know, the current “Tokyo Daily” literature and art page is full of talented people from all walks of life. They suddenly wrote about food. Not to mention the literary style, first of all, the style of painting is very strange…

Moreover, everyone couldn’t evaluate the value of this thing, so after hesitating, they found Hu Hanlin’s decision.

After reading it, Mr. Hu asked Yun Yan why he did this.

Of course it is impossible for Yun Yan to say that I will help you discover commercial value. He made a sloppy look: “Food is the heaven for the people.”

Hu Hanlin smiled and shook his head, “Well, let’s watch it first.”

In any case, he would rush Yunyan back to his knowledge of the industry, and Hu Hanlin would also let him give it a try. Anyway, he knew that none of the previous ones had failed.

…

The food review “Baiyu serves as a horse for the cat” was published, and after a few issues, it established a certain degree of influence.

There is no editor’s recommendation, it is just clipped in the literary edition. At the beginning, some scholars saw it and doubted their own eyes. What the hell, why a review suddenly appeared between poems and songs!

Looking at it again, the text is not fancy but quite clever, and the description is written into the micro, making people hungrier the more they look, the hungry the more they look…

At the end, almost everyone ran to get something to eat. If you have food on hand, it slowly feels dull.

Then, it is spread to the eyes of ordinary people, and the waves caused by it are relatively large. Bianjing has a lot of delicious food, and there are so many foodies. When they read it so temptingly, they naturally want to come and have a big meal.

And the comment criticizing the restaurant is also very reasonable.

Not many people have eaten Guanzhu’s private kitchen, but many people have eaten it in that restaurant. I thought it was good before. Now, after reading it, especially the top grade I have eaten in it, I compare it with the shortcomings I pointed out. One confirmation-yes, isn’t that true!

Although the author’s writing is sharp and does not contain a dirty word, he scolds it extremely harshly, but it is reasonable and well-founded. After reading the whole article, I only feel that the criticism is hearty and convincing, and it renews the yearning for the top grade. Almost everyone who has read it agrees that the author must be a glutton.

There are also many people’s concerns. This “Baiyu serves the cat as a horse” has been rated for several dishes, and he uses the “cat” to evaluate it. For example, in the restaurant, there are two cats behind the delicacy, while the highest in the private kitchen in Taoist temple has six cats.

So the question is, how many cats are full? How many cats passed? Are there any levels below cats? How big is the gap between a cat? Why use cats for comparison…

Suddenly, many discussions came out, and the attention of “Baiyu to be a horse for the cat” increased. After a few articles were released stably, supporters also increased. Watching this person’s articles, you can not only grasp food information, but also learn some cooking tips from time to time…

This is exactly as Yun Yanhui said, it has become a clear stream in the literature and art section, making other literati quite speechless.

Not to mention other literati and authors, Li Zeyun is speechless. I didn’t expect Mr. Yun to get it out. Although the popularity is not as popular as the search for love column, according to readers’ surveys, it has risen steadily!

——Not to mention these foreign objects, “Baiyu serves as a horse for the cat” has become famous, and the thing that affects Yunyanhui the most is that the people in Kaifeng Mansion will inevitably see it after the attention of food reviews has increased.

Zhan Zhao took the newspaper and forced him to ask Yun Yanhui and Bai Yutang to come. He assuredly said, “You wrote this.”

Bai Yutang and Yun Yanhui both looked at him innocently, but under Zhan Zhao’s awe-inspiring aura, they quickly lost the battle. With Zhan Zhao’s judgment and understanding of them, it is not surprising at all to guess it.

Bai Yutang was unwilling to even cover up, and simply took off his waistcoat, “It’s us!”

Zhan Zhao couldn’t laugh or cry, “You still have reason… Yutang, what do you have to step on me with a pen name?”

Don’t talk about the cat in this “cat as a horse”, it’s not him.

Yun Yan secretly rubbed his hands back, here, it’s time to shake the pot!

Just as he was about to speak, Bai Yutang calmly said: “I worked with Zhufeng to make food reviews. I’m half the same as him under the pseudonym.”

Zhan Zhao immediately looked back at Yun Yan and said helplessly: “Zhu Feng…”

Yun Yan didn’t react at the beginning, and then shouted cheating in his heart!

Bai Yutang said that he and Yun Yan were half and the same. This “Bai Yu served as a cat as a horse” was divided into half. It is self-evident who “Bai Yu served as a horse” is not just…? !

Yun Yanhui looked at Bai Yutang sadly: I didn’t expect your routine to be so deep…
