Chapter 18 Food is the sky

Sanshi County and the surrounding two counties had their own signature food in ancient times, so no one in the three counties at that time was convinced of anyone, and even sometimes there were some fist and foot conflicts when the dispute was big, in order to alleviate this contradiction, the food competition commonly known as "food for the sky" The rules of the game were set.

With the passage of time, the original signature food practice has not been handed down, and this "food for heaven" competition has been left behind. But the two counties next door won the first and second place in the competition in the past few years, and only the last place was given to Sanshi County.

This made the county magistrate of Sanshi County angry, and the beards of the county magistrates of the two counties next door were about to rise after being pressed for several years. Every time the magistrates of the three counties met, the magistrates of the three counties were a little unable to raise their heads, until this year he decided that he must fight for the first place.

The residents of Sanshi County are also very interested in this, and it is a supreme honor for the ancestors to win the competition. So all parties donated money to the provincial capital to find a famous chef to invite the competition, but I didn't expect the competition to be close, and when I sent someone to pick up people, the chef couldn't come because of something.

This made the magistrate of Sanshi County very angry, and the tricks of the chefs in Sanshi County were like this, and the well-known chefs in the city had already been invited away by the people from the two counties next door. The chefs who stayed behind couldn't compete with the chefs invited by the two counties next door, and the ones who were invited were just a laughing stock.

I happened to hear the Xiaoyao Inn in the mouth of Wang's sister-in-law, thinking that the inn always had a decent cook, and the county magistrate had to be a dead horse doctor. I happened to hear the rumors that Hu Junbiao was at Wang's sister-in-law's house, so I hurriedly sent someone to invite Hu Junbiao to discuss the matter of this "food for the sky" competition.

The county magistrate did not stay in the county bureau to work, and the county bureau said that the county bureau was actually a two-building earth building, which was not a rare thing, so when Hu Junbiao was invited, the county magistrate returned home early and asked his ladies to arrange a table of delicious meals, and the people in Hu Junbiao County may not know.

But the county magistrate can't not know that this is a master who spends a lot of money, and he doesn't even bother to spend money on buying land and building roads. It is said that the people in the provincial capital are arrogant, but the county magistrate is also a person who has been to the provincial capital, and there are few people in the provincial capital who dare to throw money like Hu Junbiao.

This is also the reason why the county magistrate relies on Hu Junbiao.

The county magistrate led the way, Hu Junbiao followed, the county magistrate's home is a courtyard, surrounded by a fence with some vines and vegetation, at this time it is spring flowers and fruits or something, you can't see anything but a lot of green leaves. A big loess dog was not afraid of life when he saw Hu Junbiao, or it could be the reason for the county official to wag a big tail and come up and make an intimacy.

The poultry are shaking their heads on the ground and foraging for food, and the chickens and ducks are all white and fat, which is a good thing to eat. There is a small stream at the gate of the county magistrate, so some geese and ducks swim around in the water like white hairs floating in the green water, because of the smoke curling because of the food.

The small bridge and flowing water are also quite meaningful.

The small county town has the benefits of a small county town, and this place is not magnificent but full of farmhouse charm.

"Uncle, I'm back. "The county official is also a person who has read books, and he is justified in front of Hu Junbiao, but when he steps into the door of the county magistrate's room, he speaks in local dialect.

"Tuwazi, have you invited Mr. Hu?" Hearing this, the county magistrate walked out of the room, holding a long cigarette gun in his hand and looking like he was thirty or forty years old, his figure looked a little thin, but his skin was a common bronzed skin in the countryside, and his eyes were bright.

"Brought back. The county magistrate said, pointing his finger at Hu Junbiao, who was looking at the four directions behind him.

When the county magistrate heard this, he hurriedly stepped forward and directly held Hu Junbiao's hand with one hand, and said: "Boss Hu, I am looking forward to the stars and the moon, I can look forward to you." ”

"Come, come, sit. The county official is also sensible, and he brought a chair and stool to Hu Junbiao, and Hu Junbiao did not shirk the two and sat down directly.

"This is my nephew, nicknamed Tuwazi, and nicknamed Ma Zhilong. The county magistrate put aside the cigarette gun and shouted into the kitchen: "Ladies in the house, there are guests in the house, hurry up and serve the food." ”

"Alright, alright......" came a woman's voice from the kitchen in the back room.

"My name is Ma Zhe, and I am the county magistrate of Sanshi County. Ma Zhe knows Hu Junbiao, but Hu Junbiao doesn't know Ma Zhe. The former knew that the latter was a master who spent money without blinking an eye and had the momentum of a person in a big city, otherwise he would not have refused several invitations from him.

"Boss Hu, the reason why you are invited to come, the earth baby told you on the way. Hu Junbiao hasn't spoken yet, the women in the inner room are still holding large pots and small pots of food on the table, the rules of the small county town women have women's virtues, and outsiders are not allowed to intervene in conversations.

When Tuwazi heard this, she patted her chest: "Don't worry, uncle, I told Boss Hu, and Boss Hu agreed to our request." ”

Although Tuwazi is an intellectual, he did not show his knowledge in front of Ma Zhe, and spoke the local dialect and obeyed Ma Zhe's words.

"That's right, County Magistrate Ma, he ......" Hu Junbiao didn't know how to call Tuwazi, but he was also a county official, and he didn't have a lot of respect for his nickname.

"Let's call it Tuwazi. Ma Zhe wiped his hands with the cloth on the table, and said to Hu Junbiao with a smile.

"Brother Zhilong told me before he came, and I am happy to help with this. "Sanshi County is located in a remote area, so this Ma Zhe is the king of the soil, Hu Junbiao may need his help in some things in the future, this "food for the sky" as a competition in the three counties still has some weight.

You can also promote your own Getaway Inn by the way.

Tuwazi heard that Hu Junbiao did not call him by his nickname, touched his hair and grinned.

"Boss Hu, good person. Ma Zhe was very pleased with Hu Junbiao's direct agreement without asking the price, although he felt that Hu Junbiao had been unwilling to see him when he bought the land, but a large piece of land where the Xiaoyao Inn was located was not inhabited, and several cultivated land were also wasteland.

When he saw Hu Junbiao at this time, Ma Zhe felt that he did not have the appearance he had imagined before.

Hu Junbiao is very young, and the young ones are a little scary.

Why there is so much money Ma Zhe is also unknown, but he didn't investigate too much. At the same time, he doesn't look like a big boss, but rather a wise man who lives in seclusion in the mountains and forests.

Of course, this refers to the current Hu Junbiao, if it was the previous gentleman, the momentum is very different.

"Come on, Boss Hu, let's eat something first, let's talk about this "food for the sky" competition at the dinner table. His own woman had already prepared a table of food, and Ma Zhe would not let Hu Junbiao sit here and talk to him, and let his own woman take out her own treasured rice wine and put it on the table.

waved his hand at Hu Junbiao.
