Chapter 902 Changes in the Canteen

In the blink of an eye, the fifteenth day of the first lunar month has passed.

The imperial court started writing early, and the major academies and private schools, including Jia Family School, naturally started classes smoothly.

The students, who had been playing for almost a whole vacation at home, soon entered into a regular and fulfilling life.

But soon, they discovered something was wrong.

The food in the Ethnology Canteen seems to have a lot more seafood?

There is seaweed soup in the breakfast recipe?

Don’t look at it, this stuff can be found everywhere in modern times. You can buy it in both wet markets and supermarkets, both dry and fresh.

But in a farming society with very backward productivity, even people on the beach may not be able to eat it often.

The key is that the taste of kelp soup is quite sweet, which is very suitable for Daqian people's taste.

Even making simple white sugar can be a huge profit method to make a fortune. In terms of food, it is just the people of the capital and ordinary officials, that's it.

In the family tradition, there are still a small number of true direct descendants of distinguished nobles.

Except for the children of the Jia family and the children of relatives and friends who were affiliated with the school, most of the people who came from noble families were commoners or children of side branches, and they did not have many family resources to enjoy.

The same is true. Except for students like Jia Baoyu, the rest of the students basically eat breakfast and lunch in the ethnic school cafeteria.

Boarding students naturally enjoy dinner at home.

There is a clan school canteen, but Jia Rong put a lot of effort into planning and building it.

Naturally, it is impossible to outsource it to outsiders, even the chefs inside are quite good.

Using the ingredients provided by Zhuangzi, the three meals prepared are not only delicious, but also very beautiful in appearance.

Of course, as an ethnographic canteen, the fees are not high at all, and are even cheaper than food stalls outside.

Nowadays, ethnic studies students are used to eating in the ethnic studies cafeteria.

But to be honest, due to productivity reasons, the food provided by the canteen is still mainly vegetarian dishes. It is not that there are no meat dishes, but the quantity provided is too small, but the oil and water in the dishes are sufficient.

But that's the case. The food in the Ethnic Studies Canteen is of a higher standard than what most Ethnic Studies students enjoy at home. It is not only more plentiful but also tastes better.

To be honest, because of Aunt Zhao's care, Jia Huan's living standard is definitely among the best among the sons of noble families.

What they, mother and son, enjoyed were leftovers from Mrs. Wang's food.

Although Mrs. Wang is not as extravagant as the old lady, a meal has at least eighteen dishes, and each one must be delicious, delicious, and delicious.

But as the head wife of Rong Mansion, a meal of ten dishes is not too much.

She was ostensibly worshiping the Buddha. There were only a limited number of dishes that one person could enjoy, and most of the rest were shared by Aunt Zhao and the maids.

Aunt Zhao doesn't know how to be polite, at least she can get a plate of meat dishes.

Sometimes Mr. Zheng stays overnight and the food is naturally better.

Jia Huan followed Aunt Zhao, and at least he was not treated badly in terms of food.

Compared with Jia Cong, who was also a concubine, he was much stronger.

Jia Cong didn't have money to run a big kitchen, so although the food he ate was a regular meal, it was basically vegetarian food such as white rice and green vegetables and tofu, but the dishes were not lacking in oil and water.

But such a standard of food is quite desirable for the children of the Jia clan.

In the circle of honorable nobles, the Rong family, which is famous for its wealth, is in this situation, not to mention the concubines and descendants of other noble families.

In short, although there is no need to worry about livelihood, the quality of food is quite average.

In this way, it is not difficult to understand that when Jia Rong had not rectified and reformed the clan school, many children from the side branches and relatives and friends were willing to join the school for the free snacks provided by the clan school.

It can only be said that the living standards of the people in the capital are not as good as imagined.

Fortunately, although the clan school is expanding rapidly, the number of students is only just over two hundred, and Zhuangzi in Ning Mansion can still afford it.

Originally, clan science should have been provided by the clan's sacrificial fields, but the Jia family's sacrificial fields were all in Jinling, and it was unknown how they were divided among the clan elders there.

Jia Rong was too lazy to argue with the Jinling clan, so he simply used the produce in Ningfu Village as the food supply for the clan school canteen.

Such as chicken farms, pig farms, etc. At this time, Zhuangzi is slowly exploring experience, and it will be impossible to provide sufficient meat, poultry, and eggs for a while.

Although Jia Rong had a solution, he had no intention of taking action.

That requires a lot of money investment, which is not a good thing for ethnic studies students.

Of course, most of the students in ethnology are half-grown-ups.

It is when the body is growing that it needs to absorb a large amount of rich nutrients.

In addition, there are many martial arts students, and for all students’ exercise needs, it is necessary to provide sufficient meat and protein intake.

It just so happened that Jinmen was developing shipping, and the Xue family also established a small-scale offshore fishing fleet in accordance with Jia Rong's request.

As the well-prepared sea fish and marine food are continuously imported into Ningfu's kitchen, seafood is naturally added to Zuxue's meals.

Not only is delicious kelp soup served for breakfast, but fresh braised fish, steamed and boiled fish and other kinds of seafood and meat are also served for lunch.

Even great tonic products such as sea cucumber are provided.

Ethnology students were pleasantly surprised by the sudden large supply of fish and meat.

Again, they can't eat meat and soup every day. It depends on the supply of supplies at Ningfu Village.

But now, the Ethnology Canteen is obviously showing signs of long-term supply of marine fish and seafood. How can we not surprise the Ethnology students who eat here every day?

We are all young men. Whether we are practicing martial arts or studying literature, these are very energy-consuming actions. Who would be willing to be a vegetarian when there is meat to eat?

Even Jia Baoyu, a young master who is constantly enjoying delicacies every day, often comes to the clan school cafeteria to have a taste of it.

During the holidays, the students either intentionally or unintentionally told their families about the changes in the food in the cafeteria, which immediately attracted the attention of many interested people.

Because of the briquette incident and a series of subsequent measures, the financial situation of the Xungui Group has been drastically changed, from being unable to make ends meet to being wealthy.

It was also under such circumstances that Jia Rong was vaguely regarded as the God of Wealth.

Apart from anything else, the income situation of the Ning Mansion has long been known to those who are interested. At least the income on the surface is quite generous.

Anyone who is serious wants to get rich, so who cares if they have too much money?

Not to mention that food is the most important thing for the people. Food such as meat, eggs, and poultry can even be regarded as strategic resources to a certain extent. Who doesn’t want to have more?

Now, after hearing the changes in the Jia family's menu at the cafeteria, I suddenly had some thoughts. I wanted to at least find out what was going on and see if I could take advantage of it...
