Chapter 453 Liu Bei: There Is No Need to Pick a Day to Show the Country's Prestige! [Seeking Monthly Votes]
“Why is it called Anhui Ban Mian?”
Chai Jin sat aside, tore open a pack of millet rice crispy rice and tasted it. He thought it tasted good, so he took the package and distributed some to everyone, including the two helping cooks.
Zhang Fei said with a smile:
"It is said that most of the people selling Pan Noodles are from Anhui, but I don't know why... I have never traveled far in the real world, so I just read some jokes on the Internet."
While talking, Sun Xin rolled up his sleeves, washed his hands with soap, and started to help.
He has figured out how to do it on the board, it is not difficult, especially for a strong person like him, it is easy to do it.
Lu Zhishen ate the rice cake provided by Chai in one bite, and sat next to the coal stove, warming himself by the fire while staring at the mutton cooking in the pot.
Cut the skinned and internalized lamb into large pieces, boil it in plain water for more than half an hour, then take it out and eat it with salt. The original taste is very delicious.
He smelled the scent of mutton and muttered:
"Is this how the hand-grilled mutton is made? I'll try it next time too."
Zhou Tong came over, took a spoon to beat the blood foam in the pot, and said with a smile:
"Whenever master cooks the meat, I will help you."
However, Lu Zhi did not appreciate it:
"Pull it down. You have to eat half of a sheep. The rest is not enough for me. I have to cook it and buy it myself. Don't join me in the gang."
Just as he was talking, Qiao Daoqing and Fan Rui came. They knew that the people who came today were carnivores, so they brought some cooked donkey meat.
There was no casualty among the people during the snowstorm, but the livestock was still damaged to a certain extent.
In order to reduce losses, these people braised their livestock and sold them for meat. Qiao Daoqing originally planned to buy beef, but Fengmingxuan bought it all. Fortunately, he met a donkey meat seller, so he and Fan Rui bought fifty or sixty kilograms.
Seeing the cooked donkey meat, Li Zhong took a knife and cut a piece and tasted it:
"This donkey meat is good. I'll peel some garlic and eat it with garlic paste later."
As soon as he finished speaking, Pu Tiandiao Li Ying walked into the courtyard carrying an oversized casserole:
"Tang, tang, tang, hurry up and get me a table."
When Deng Fei heard this, he carried the dining table next to him and sent it over. When Li Ying put down the casserole, he smelled the aroma of meat in the pot and asked curiously:
"What is this stew for?"
"The wild roe deer was motionless in its snowy nest. I picked it up."
Chai Jin sat by the stove and said while warming himself:
"There is a recipe for roe deer in the learning materials given by the teacher. Chop the roe deer into large pieces and put them in a jar. Put the seasonings and seal them. Then they are buried in rice bran. The rice bran is burned for three days and three nights, and then it is removed from the ashes. When you pull it out, the meat is so delicious that it can be swallowed by your tongue. ”
Zhang Fei became interested as soon as he heard this:
"What information? Why haven't I seen it?"
"It's an article, it seems to be something middle school students read. In fact, I really want to try it, but I can't do it right. When Pengju comes, I will ask Mr. to prepare some marinade, and when it's ready, we can taste it together."
Shi Wengong said in surprise:
"For three days and three nights, the meat inside must not be burned to ashes?"
Sun Xin, the only chef in the audience, said:
"Teacher Shi didn't know that rice bran is piled together and cooked slowly. This method is similar to the low-temperature slow-cooking or low-temperature slow-roasting in Mr.'s cooking skills. It can lock in the moisture in the meat to the maximum extent, making it taste extremely tender... Come tomorrow. You hunted the roe deer, let me try it, if it can be done well, Fengmingxuan can add another delicacy. "
Everyone sat together and chatted. When Liu Bei, Wen Huanzhang and Pei Xuan came over, today's lunch officially started.
In the room with LED headlights on, four square tables were put together to form an oversized long table, with various delicacies placed on the table.
Lu Zhi couldn't help but salivate at the freshly cooked mutton, cooked donkey meat, braised goose, pig head meat, braised roe deer in a casserole and other delicacies.
Zhang Fei scooped the cooked noodles into bowls and poured a spoonful of red oil bone soup into each bowl. The red peppers that were first fried and then braised expanded slightly, exuding a rich aroma.
When the noodles were served, Zhang Fei reminded:
"Don't throw away the chili pepper. This is the essence of Pan Mee. If you eat a chili pepper with the noodles, you can run around outside without feeling cold."
Liu Bei took the bowl and said with a smile:
“It’s a pity that there is no plastic bag on the bowl, so it’s not authentic enough.”
After everyone started eating, Qiao Daoqing took the initiative to chat about Yan Qing and others who had set off two days ago:
"I don't know what's going on. I hope everything goes well for them."
Yan Qingshixiu, Yang Lin and Yang Xiong went out, and none of them were impulsive. In addition, this trip was just initial contact, so there shouldn't be any big problems.
Liu Bei was very relieved about them, but he was a little worried about Guan Yu over there in Handan:
"I hope my second brother can guard against arrogance and impetuosity and not be impulsive."
Wen Huanzhang had a mouthful of pan noodles, which were really chewy. After a mouthful of noodles and a mouthful of juicy red pepper, it was super satisfying, and the cold was immediately dispelled.
He said:
"Second Master Guan has changed a lot now, and with Taoist Gongsun assisting him, he will definitely not mess up... Relatively speaking, I am more worried about whether Shi Dalang and Shi Qian will cause any trouble in the capital."
Shi Jin has a young mind and is bold and impulsive, while Shi Qian tends to go off the beaten path and likes to play exciting projects.
These two people got together to cause havoc, and Le and Shi En couldn't stop them.
Liu Bei sighed:
"It is still necessary to establish a communication network as soon as possible, so that we can just explain anything."
The biggest problem in ancient society was poor information processing. If instant communication could be achieved, the entire history of China would have to be rewritten.
When Xuande picked up the bowl and prepared to eat the noodles, Lu Zhishen had already finished a small bowl:
"It's so satisfying! This noodle is really enjoyable!"
When Zhang Fei heard this, he filled another basin for him, and then said:
"Just try the staple food briefly. Meat is the source of physical strength."
"Don't worry, Mr. Zhang. I'm just going to put my foot down. I'm mainly going to deal with mutton today."
A whole sheep may seem like a lot, but when faced with a group of predators, it seems stretched.
Lu Zhishen put a few large pieces of mutton into the bowl, and didn't bother to dip it in salt, and just ate the pan noodles soup. Needless to say, it tasted really good.
Liu Bei tasted the food on the table, drank two glasses of wine with everyone, and then said:
"Yide will lead the cavalry all the way north early tomorrow morning and cross the border to Daliao to investigate the situation. If there is a chance, go straight to the grassland and take a stroll. If there is no chance, forget it. Preserving strength is the most important thing."
Although winter is not the time for war, proper military training is possible.
And the more it is recognized that it is not suitable for war, the more unexpected actions are needed. To show our country's prestige, we don't have to choose a day, it can be done at any time.
Qiao Daoqing said:
"Pindao has been very restless lately, and he also wants to go to the North to see the great rivers and mountains, so let's go with the army."
With this Taoist priest here, even if there is any danger, it can be dealt with immediately.
Soon, Shi Wengong and Yang Zhi also took the initiative to invite Miao to go with them. Liu Bei thought about it and agreed to their request.
In the past, Yang Zhi had to guard the weapons workshop, but now, the entire Zhending Mansion is in his pocket, and the counties have also entered normal work and life.
When he was about to finish eating, Ma Ling hurried over:
"Ha, as expected, it's better to come early than to come early. I actually caught up with you eating meat."
He put away the armor on his legs, washed his hands carefully, sat down, raised his hand to grab a piece of mutton and put it into his mouth, only to find that it had no taste:
"No salt?"
Deng Fei pushed Lihuajiang in front of him and said:
"It has to be eaten with dipping sauce. Did brother Ma Ling bring any good news?"
Ma Ling dipped it in the chive sauce and took a bite. He immediately liked the taste. He said as he ate:
"The Cai Mansion's investigation team has arrived in Xingzhou in the past two days. Brother Shan bought a restaurant in Daming Mansion and named it Fengming Yuan. All the furniture was purchased from the real world, and it was even installed with glass. The lights will also use brighter electric lamps, focusing on a cross-generational enjoyment.”
Wen Huanzhang was delighted when he heard:
"Have you seen Fengming Restaurant in Handan? Can't you hold yourself back?"
"Indeed! But the most important thing is to gather information... In order to gain popularity, Brother Shan hopes that Fengmingxuan and Fengming Restaurant will support some chefs to help Fengmingyuan become the number one gourmet restaurant in Daming Mansion."
Sun Xin said:
"No problem. We have trained a lot of cooks recently, and we can send them there just in time."
Ma Ling reported other things again, and then said to Liu Bei:
"Uncle Emperor, I have good news for you. Zhao Yun and Zhao Zilong are coming to join you!"
Upon hearing this, Liu Bei stood up excitedly:
"What? Zilong is coming?"
Zhang Fei, who was carrying a donkey rib and gnawing at it, was also stunned:
"After we leave, they should completely forget about me and my eldest and second brothers. Why do they still remember it? Did the big fool in Bingzhou tell Zilong?"
Ma Ling shook his head:
"I heard from Peng Ju that Zhao Zilong read "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" over there several times, and the more he watched it, the more regretful he became. Now that Ji Han's foundation is about to be relaunched here, he is tempted and wants to continue to follow the emperor's uncle."
When Liu Bei heard this, his eye circles immediately turned red:
"Yide, the fourth brother is coming!"
Zhang Fei was also so excited that he couldn't control himself:
"Yes, brother, Zilong is coming!"
Although the three brothers all recognized Zhao Yun as the fourth child, in fact Zhao Yun was older than Zhang Fei. Zhang Fei was only in his fifties when he died. A few years later, Zhuge Liang went on the Northern Expedition and Zhao Yun was already seventy when he closed down the Han family. A veteran who comes forward.
Calculating this, Zhao Yun is at least five or six years older than Zhang Fei.
If we extrapolate this age, Zhao Yun at Changbanpo is already over forty-five years old, which is very different from the young general written in the book... This is caused by the author's poor mathematics!
The news of Zhao Yun's upcoming arrival excited everyone present.
Wen Huanzhang was still hesitant before about whether to bring Dong Ping over with his twin guns. Although this guy had a bad character, he was still a member of the Liangshan Five Tigers and was still very valuable.
But now that he heard Zhao Yun coming, Wen Huanzhang gave Dong Ping a big cross in his heart.
We are teachers of justice, how can we be confused with treacherous villains?
Well, with Zhao Yun, even the helpless military strategist became tough.
Liu Bei wiped his tears and bowed to everyone:
"Hearing the good news, Bei Zhen couldn't control himself... Although I had five tiger generals in the past, due to lack of resources, I never gave them a chance to use them. Now that Zilong is here, I will definitely let him spread his wings and fly as he pleases! "
After saying that, he filled his glass and drank it all in one gulp.
I'm so happy, I feel so happy!
In the real world, Li Yu sat in front of the statue in the scenic spot and watched the broadcast, and he also sighed:
"With Zilong's help, Xuande actually lost his composure with joy."
It's a pity that this is a family dinner organized by Zhang Fei, and no one dances with him, otherwise Xuande might shout out the classic line:
"Keep playing the music and keep dancing!"
The queen said:
"Don't just tease others, you have to prepare the resources on your side, and the peach branches and other things will be ready for you soon, and I will have to trouble your mother again when the time comes."
"It's okay, I will drive to the provincial capital and deliver them personally, so that my mother can cultivate them well."
Li Yu also wanted to know whether those heaven and earth spiritual roots could be grown. If they could, then the peaches could be eaten freely in the future.
As they were chatting, Li Yu's cell phone rang:
"Hello, is this Mr. Li? We are delivering a converter. Is your location a cement road going up the mountain? Is there a sign for Fengming Valley Hanfu Theme B&B at the intersection?"
"Yes, yes, yes, it's here, you can get on!"
For such super-wide and super-heavy goods, the driver dare not drive up rashly when the route is uncertain, lest he cannot turn around.
After hanging up the phone, Li Yu stood up and said:
"I'm leaving, mom. Please ask Guiying to come over quickly and transport the furnace. When the equipment is complete, we can try to start working."
"Okay, kid, I'll let Guiying go back now."
When Li Yu strolled back to the B&B, Mu Guiying had already arrived. The girl had just moved 20 carts of food for Lu Bu and was counting the remaining inventory. After receiving the order from her master, she came to the real world without saying a word.
Li Yu said:
"Build a door over there at the cement factory and pull the furnace over later."
"Oh, okay!"
Mu Guiying returned to Muke Village, rode a motorcycle to the side of the cement factory, built a super large door with bamboo poles, and then hurried to the real world.
As soon as she arrived here, she saw an oversized tractor pulling a bunch of wheeled trailers slowly climbing up the mountain.
"Wow, this car is so big!"
Mu Guiying quickly took two photos with her mobile phone, and then counted the wheels carefully. The more she counted, the more surprised she felt.
Soon, the car arrived at the entrance of the B&B. After Li Yu negotiated, Mu Guiying drove the car away. The two drivers and the manufacturer's escort followed Li Yu to the restaurant and had a quick meal.
Before they finished their meal, Mu Guiying drove the empty car back.
After the drivers left, the girl said:
"Zhang Daoling was like a child. He actually squatted down and counted the number of wheels seriously. He didn't have the maturity and stability of a god."
Li Yu: ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?
Weren't you also very excited to count just now?
Mu Guiying sighed and returned to Muke Village to preside over the installation of the furnace, while Zhang Daoling became a human crane, carefully installing various equipment together.
The next day, Li Yu got up and exercised, and Mu Guiying came back.
"Is the equipment in the factory ready?"
"Almost. Once the remaining parts are shipped over, we can try to produce cement. But it's hard to say whether it will work or not."
Some coal and limestone have been shipped to the vicinity of the cement factory. As long as the equipment is complete, construction can begin.
After Mu Guiying finished talking about this, she asked about the bracelet:
"Where is your bracelet? Master asked me to take it back and add another Chaos Thunder Bead."
Li Yu said curiously:
"The current size is just right. Wouldn't it be bigger if I add another bead?"
"Don't worry, just shrink all the beads. They are decorations here, but they are first-class magic weapons over there. Let alone a bracelet, you can even turn it into a birthday cake."
Wow, this bracelet has the properties of a Transformer, right?
Li Yu went back to the room to get his bracelet and changed his sweaty clothes.
As soon as he walked out of the room, he saw Dao Ge had woken up and was looking at him with bright eyes, as if he had something to say.
Li Yu handed the bracelet to Mu Guiying and sat down next to Dao Ge:
"Tell me, what happened again?"
Dao Ge didn't know how to start. He thought about it seriously, kicked down "Journey to the West" from the bookshelf, and then looked at Li Yu with an inquiring look.
"What? You want to open this book? Wait a little longer, don't be impatient, you will open it when you want."
"Woo woo..."
Dao Ge agreed, strolled out of the study, went downstairs to have fun, ate something, and ran happily towards Longqi Mountain, intending to find Dun Dun to show off.
Li Yu changed his clothes, washed his face, and went to the restaurant to have breakfast.
Today's meal was pumpkin porridge, with vegetable mang.
As soon as he took the first bite, Mu Guiying came back humming "You Are My Life". The bracelet he had taken away before was indeed smaller now, but there was one more bead.
Li Yu took it in his hand and looked at it. He found a bead with a lightning pattern. If you look carefully, you can find that the lightning is like alive and can move.
Is this the Chaos Thunder Bead?
I wonder if I will be afraid of static electricity in the future with this bead.
Mu Guiying filled a bowl of rice, took a bite of the vegetable, and put some fried eggs, fried bacon and sausage on a plate, sat opposite Li Yu, and ate heartily.
Li Yu put on the bracelet and asked:
"Didn't you say that the peach branches and other things are ready? When will they be delivered?"
"Soon, but there are only peach branches and ginseng fruit branches at the moment. Other heavenly and earthly spiritual roots will have to wait... Master said that he could have sent a lotus seed, but the Ninth Grade Lotus Platform disagreed."
What?
It disagreed?
Li Yu didn't understand what this meant:
"Isn't the ninth-grade lotus platform an innate magic weapon? It has intelligence?"
Mu Guiying explained:
"All magic weapons are spiritual, especially the ninth-grade lotus platform. It existed before the creation of the world and has a high status. Unfortunately, after being downgraded to the ninth grade, its strength has greatly decreased. If another lotus seed is separated, the entire lotus platform may be divided into several petals, so it doesn't want to take risks."
Good guy, quite steady.
Li Yu didn't expect that this thing could actually be used to chat and chat.
Thinking that the culprit for the downgrade of the ninth-grade lotus platform was Taoist Mosquito, now that his own strength is strong, if he goes back and kills Taoist Mosquito, wouldn't this avoid the downgrade of the lotus platform?
Li Yu said to Mu Guiying:
"I think we can negotiate with the lotus platform. If possible, we can plant a lotus platform in the B&B."
Mu Guiying's eyes lit up:
"How to negotiate? Tell me quickly, I'll show off to Master!"
