One hundred and seventy-eight, business
Yao Xitong doesn't say the name of the dish, but first talks about the cooking method. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
"The autumn wind rises, and the three snakes are fat. Although it was spring, the temperature on the island was humid, and there was no winter, so the snake did not need to hibernate and grew quite fat. I peel and cut it off, make a pan to boil oil, and stir-fry it until it is charred on the outside and tender on the inside. The snake meat is out of the pot for later use, and the remaining oil is stir-fried with dried chili peppers, star anise, bay leaves, garlic cloves, etc. ”
"After that, I stir-fry the red oil with my homemade sauce, then put the snake meat back into the pot and pour in the stock and simmer to taste. The last step is to add fresh red peppers, add special oyster sauce, and remove the juice from the pot! ”
Xiao Bao'er glanced at the sunset, there was still some time before eating, thinking of being able to eat snake meat, she said, "It sounds delicious, let's go back!" ”
Taste snake, it's been in the pot for a while, Xiao Baoer is a little dissatisfied with this, shouldn't you eat while it's hot? After entering the mouth, she understood Yao Xitong's intentions, this dish is extremely spicy, if she eats it just after the pot, she will definitely not be able to stand the hot and spicy taste.
After three bites, she gave up the taste snake and turned her attention to the dish that Yao Xitong had just made. Covering his nose in disgust, he said, "Just this smell, something so strange." ”
"Curry clams."
"What clams?"
"Occasionally, there are shipwrecked people floating on the island. A few years ago, a man from Fanbang came in, and he couldn't get used to the light taste of the island. One day, he stole herbs and spices from the storehouse and grinded the spices himself, which he called spicy curry. After sending the man away, the islanders occasionally made curry to improve the taste. ”
Fanbang food! Xiao Bao'er picked up a clam and tasted it, the taste was very strange, she could only taste the coconut water in the dish.
"Phew, phew, what a strange food, take it away!"
Yao Xitong was not so obedient, he poured a glass of water for Xiao Bao'er, "You just ate the greasy and spicy taste snake, naturally you can't taste the beauty of curry, rinse your mouth and try it again." It took me a lot of effort to find a ball of onions to put in it, so I didn't waste it. ”
Xiao Baoer pulled it out on the plate, and there were really a lot of ingredients. She knew the balls, ginger, garlic cloves, coconut meat, and as for the yellow sauce, it was so finely ground that she could hardly tell what it was.
"Curry can also be stir-fried?"
"First make a curry paste, stir-fry with the ingredients, then add water to boil the balls and coconut meat until soft, pour in the scalded clams, stir-fry a little and then turn off the heat." , Listening to him seriously, Xiao Baoer ate another one, and this time she ate the flavor of curry.
"It tastes good, but unfortunately it's still spicy, and the coconut meat is added for nothing."
Yao Xitong smiled and brought out a bowl of white rice, poured curry juice on top of the rice, and tempted: "Taste it!" ”
Xiao Bao'er tasted it and sighed: "This tastes good, if you cook lamb leg with curry, the taste will definitely be better!" ”
Yao Xitong smiled helplessly, after a hard day, this person was still thinking about the leg of mutton, and it seemed that he wanted to leave.
He said: "Xuandexian is awake. ”
Xiao Bao'er frowned slightly, yesterday she saw Lord Song running around on the beach, almost drowned in the sea, and now she has regained her senses? Not quite right!
"You killed the only snake on the island, and said that Lord Song woke up, is this a reminder that it's time for me to leave?"
Yao Xitong knew that Xiao Baoer had misunderstood, and the reason for killing the snake was because he wanted to improve his diet and make Xiao Bao'er have a little taste in his mouth. Worried that the snake owner would be angry, he sent a copy of the prepared snake meat door to door, including the snake owner himself......
After thinking about it, he explained, "Lord Song was just a little crazy for a while, and he regained his sanity within a few days of landing on the island. In order to protect himself, he has been pretending to be stupid, and I only saw through it a few days ago. ”
"So he's not going back inland?"
Yao Xitong nodded, "He spent so much time looking for this place, it was so easy to find, I guess he didn't want to go back." Besides, what will be there after he goes back? ”
With the news of the sinking of the underwater green boat, Xuan Ze must have ascended to the position of Lord Song, and Xuan Dexian really couldn't do anything after he went back.
"Xiaoxiao, if you want to stay here to avoid the prophecy of the rhino incense, I will naturally be by your side. We build our own house, grow some of your favorite vegetables in front of the door, and if I really want to eat a roast leg of lamb, I can secretly go out and buy a sheep to raise here. A few years later, you and I are living on the island with a bunch of kids, and that's not unavoidable! ”
Yao Xitong used words to sketch a beautiful picture of life. Xiao Bao'er thought about it carefully but felt that this kind of life was not what she wanted, and she didn't know when she was forced into such an embarrassing situation by the prophecy of rhino incense. The lover is gone, the father and brother are gone, the family and country are gone, and life is just to survive?
Suddenly, she figured it all out, and her world could never be confined to an island. The world is so big, she wants to learn the courage of King Chun to sing in the face of the killer, there is no need to cower and see life and death as greater than the sky.
The flowers bloom on two branches, one on each end.
As the underwater green ship sank into the deep sea, the merchant ship returned, and Qin Mao took Xuan Jin back to Liangdi to settle the baby.
The Song Lord's Mansion was in chaos because of the disappearance of the Song Lord, and everyone discussed letting Xuan Ze come back to inherit the title, or send a ship to the sea to search for the whereabouts of the Song Lord......
The Zhu family has been gathering at the family for several days in a row to discuss whether Zhu Zhigao's trip will have an impact on the family. When he learned that the princess of Beiliao was also on the ship and the Song lord did not reprimand, the family was silent, and those who wanted to expel Zhu Zhigao from the family were finally defeated by those who supported Zhu Zhigao to become the head of the family.
Businessmen pursue profits, risks and benefits are equal, Zhu Zhigao went to sea in exchange for a treasure ship, this business is not a loss.
Erer prides himself on being a top chef, and how to cook delicious food is his lifelong pursuit. When the group found the green boat underwater, he walked up to the deck from the galley, saw that there was no food on the island, and turned back to the galley to continue his study of the food.
Until the island sank, his mind was on cooking, and he didn't seem to believe that Yao Xitong and Xiao Bao'er would die easily.
Back on the ground, Su Su followed him all day long, convincing him to pay money from the bun shop to reorganize the caravan. At first he was reluctant. The bun shop was handed over to Xiao Bao'er, not Xiao Bao'er's maid, how did he know that this maid wouldn't run away with the money!
Susu's solution was simple, let him set off with the ship, and all the links involving money could be involved. If that promise wasn't enough, Susu said a reason that would be very easy to impress him.
Susu said: The last voyage was purposeful, and the ship did not stop at the surrounding islands. There was no destination on this voyage, and the ship could stop at will, so that he could get to the island and experience different cultures and food......
Erer was persuaded and asked Su Su how much silver he wanted. The latter contacted Zhu Zhigao to find out how much silver it would cost them to rent the Zhu family's merchant ship.
Zhu Zhigao reported an imaginary number and told Su Su that if he felt that the price was too high, the merchant ship could carry goods when they went to sea, and buy and sell while walking, which could solve the problem of shortage of silver. But there is one point, the rent must be paid at one time, he is the head of the Zhu family, and he can't break the rules.
Su Su was taken aback by the amount reported by Zhu Zhigao, and hurriedly asked Er'er if he had so much money?
Erer replied lightly, this is a small amount, and it can be made up in two days...... Zhu Zhigao only needs to gather people to prepare to sail.
Su Su knew that the bun shop was rich, but he didn't expect it to be so rich. Suddenly, I was a little envious of Xiao Bao'er, and the men who grabbed them casually were so good, and the princess's life was different from ordinary people.
Less than half a month after returning to the Song Land, the merchant ship set sail again and left Lukang in time to return to the Song Land from Dadu in Xuanze to succeed to the throne.
Tea, silk, porcelain, Fanbang's favorite objects.
Zhu Zhigao suggested that Su Su take these to the sea, but Su Su refused, believing that the voyage would go to some small islands that were inaccessible and those people could not afford to spend silk and porcelain. She asked Zhu Zhigao to bring ordinary and sturdy cotton and linen, simple and practical ironware, as well as salt, sugar, chili peppers and other seasonings......
Zhu Zhigao shook his head when he saw her list of goods, "Miss Susu, the cargo load of the merchant ship is limited, and you carry these goods and don't make money?" Isn't it changing? ”
Su Su shook his head, "I went to sea for the purpose of finding people, and I didn't plan to make money from these goods." ”
Zhu Zhigao sighed secretly, what master brings what servant, it is unreliable to do things. He asked again if he would go to the route of the underwater green boat first, which would appear once a month on the fifteenth day of the month, and no matter what the temple on the island became, they could at least find some clues from the wreckage of the temple.
Su Su disagreed, she felt that she should go to the sea area where Wu Jun had been killed, and that place was most likely to find Xiao Baoer and the others.
Zhu Zhigao asked her why, and her statement was similar to Yao Xitong. The underwater green boat, since it is called a boat, will naturally move, and Wu Jun's distress is related to this magical island.
Saying that Su Su couldn't move, Zhu Zhigao had no choice but to set sail, so he sailed towards the sea area where Wu Jun had been shipwrecked. Unfortunately, it didn't take long for the ship to run into pirates.
It was a tranquil sea, and there were several isolated islands nearby. When a small ship was seen running aground on the reef and several crew members beckoned for help, the captain planned to stop the ship for rescue. But he had never been to this sea area, and asked Zhu Zhigao before stopping the ship.
Zhu Zhigao felt that the boat should be stopped, but Su Su said no. The former is very puzzled by this, the sea is not as good as the land, as long as you see the victims, you basically do not ask the reason, try your best to rescue, this is a necessary quality for sea navigation......
Su Su can't say that Zhu Zhigao can only sarcastically say that he is Zhu Dashan.
Zhu Zhigao said that Su Su was used to using the cold survival rules in the palace to everything he faced, this habit was not good, and most people's personalities were quite pure......
The verbal battle between the two has not stopped, and there is an accident. The dilapidated boat was about to sink suddenly, and the captain stopped the boat and instructed the crew to take the boat to the rescue.
Everyone's attention, except Susu, was drawn to the run-down boat.
At this moment, Su Su saw a ship about their size quietly sail out from behind the island not far from them. I thought it was a merchant ship, but the big red flag on the ship made people feel worried.
This seems to be the pirate ship mentioned by Zhu Zhigao, and she shouted a warning to remind all the crew to pay attention.
The shipwrecked crew members, who were still floating in the water, instantly turned into fish, swam to the small boat responsible for rescuing them at great speed, seized the ship, and threatened the lives of the crew.
Zhu Zhigao encountered this kind of behavior of taking advantage of other people's kindness for the first time, and scolded: "Hell, how can there be such a thing? I shouldn't have stopped the boat to save them. ”
Su Su said: "Let's think of countermeasures first, if they don't come up with an idea when their ship approaches, then it's bad." ”
The two ships are about the same size, they sailed long to find people, there are not many crews, but each is a good hand, and there are no supplies worth protecting on board, and it is difficult to say who wins and loses in a head-to-head confrontation.
But one thing is certain, if they lose, the other side will slaughter all the members of the ship and take the ship for themselves.
Zhu Zhigao said: "Give up the four crew members and leave quickly, our ship has a light load, and it has been transformed, and there is no problem in speed." ”
The captain didn't want to give up the crew, and he knew that this was the best way to see the moment, so he looked at Su Su's eyes with all the looks he wanted to say.
Su Su said: "The purpose of going to sea to find people is not to give up on anyone, how can you give up the crew who went to sea together at this juncture?" Tell the crew to be ready for battle. ”
"Fight!" Zhu Zhigao raised his voice, "Do you know who the pirates are?" If you lose, what will happen to you? ”
"I've crawled out of the pile of dead people once, and naturally I know the outcome of losing a battle. I also know what I will experience if I am robbed by pirates, I am not afraid, are you afraid? ”
Su Su stated the facts plainly, but everyone was in a mood to hear it. A woman still has such courage, and they really shouldn't be afraid. Everyone lives on the sea and eats from the sky, and if it is fierce, pirates are not necessarily much more powerful than them.
Seeing that they were not leaving, the pirate ship slowed down significantly, as if assessing what kind of merchant ship was so bold, whether it was a merchant ship or a warship disguised as a merchant ship......
The two sides finally decided to negotiate, and Su Su sent people to explain the purpose of the ship's voyage to sea, and asked the other side's people to board the ship to inspect the supplies. If they want to fight for a worthless cargo, they are not afraid here.
As soon as the other party boarded the ship, he was taken aback by the imposing mental state of the crew, and carefully checked that the goods were indeed worthless. I thought that the merchant ships from the Central Plains would be full of rare treasures, and deliberately arranged to salvage a sum, but unexpectedly, this ship was an accident.
Su Su was not ambiguous, only said that he didn't want to cause trouble, he was willing to pay for ransom, and if the money was not enough, he would use materials to pay for it. But there is one point, the price offered by the other party should be reasonable, if the price is too high, there is only one fight, speak with strength.
The pirates were funny, they didn't make a bid, but they asked who they were looking for?
Su Su said: "Immortal Island, immortal people." ”
The pirate symbolically took a little money and released the four crew members.
According to the four crew members, the pirates deliberately dragged half of the wreck above the reef, which looked like a ship hitting the reef from a distance, and only when they looked closely did they know that it was a broken ship stuck on the underwater reef, and I don't know how many well-wishers the pirates deceived in this way......
Hearing this, Zhu Zhigao said dejectedly, "Miss Susu, I was abrupt just now, and I will definitely be cautious when I encounter this matter in the future." ”
Su Su didn't care, and said with a smile: "What kind of master do you actually want to say what kind of master brings out what kind of minions, such a smart pirate has been met by us, it's really unlucky!" ”
The two laughed.
