Shi Zhuang is a person with a mysterious overtone. A butcher, Ansheng spent the day, but once he burst out to kill, killing people like slaughtering pigs, and the killing methods are so skillful that Tu Lichun is a former professional soldier whose scalp is numb and changed for it. If these can still be used to induce people to change, it can barely make sense, but a butcher can still write a good hand, it is a bit unbelievable.

Literacy, in this day and age, is a luxury. At least in Li Ze's Zhuangzi, there are hundreds of people up and down, and if you include almost two thousand of his hundreds of tenants, there are no more than ten people who can read and write. This also includes the two two knives of Tu Lichun and Tu Hu. The two of them could barely read simple letters, and that handwriting was not much better than a chicken catch.

Even Li Ze, who has been reading and reading since he was a child, and can practice calligraphy every day, is ashamed of himself after seeing the words written by Shi Zhuang.

A butcher who looked extremely rude and unruly, he actually knew how to write and hyphenate, and it was no wonder that Tu Lichun and Tuhu were suspicious at that time, and they had strongly advised Li Ze not to put Shi Zhuang in such an important position so quickly.

These two brothers, since they were absorbed by Li Ze, can be said to have tied their lives to this little prince, in case the eldest prince knows that they have done so many things behind their backs, I am afraid that they will not be far from death.

However, Li Ze insisted on arranging Shi Zhuang here.

Shi Zhuang didn't confess his past to Li Ze, and Li Ze didn't seem to ask him what he meant, the past was like a cloud of smoke, and when it passed, it was like the wind blowing, Li Ze thought that when it was time to tell himself, Shi Zhuang would definitely tell himself.

Because Shi Zhuang is indeed a wonderful man.

After arranging Shi Zhuang to this place, after he understood the importance of this place, he sent his son to Zhuangzi, on the grounds that the child was too young for him to take with a big man, and he wanted to ask Li Ze to take care of it.

There are many meanings in this, one of which is the meaning of taking the child as the hostage, of course, putting the child here to take care of it is indeed much better than taking care of him as a big man, at least on the first day the child came, Li Ze immediately found a nurse with enough milk for the child, and the child also sucked for the first time.

At a deeper level, that is, the degree of mutual trust between the two people, Li Ze showed his sincerity, and Shi Zhuang responded accordingly, of course, Li Ze also knew very well that Shi Zhuang did this, either because he really had no way to go now, or it could be said that he was only temporarily sheltered, and he had not completely regarded himself as Li Ze's confidant.

Trust takes time to build.

The late autumn sun was warm on his body, and Li Ze, who was sitting on the chair obliquely, stretched his legs, and comfortably enjoying the caress of the sun, would from time to time lay his eyes on Shi Zhuang, who was busy with his life. This guy hooked the white and clean big fat pig on an iron hook, hung it on the ladder against the wall, and began to disembowel it with a pig-killing knife, Tu Lichun also went up to help, and the two guys showed their skillful knife skills in front of Li Ze, or it was nothing more than that, in a moment, a big fat pig weighing hundreds of pounds became some bits and pieces under the hands of the two and was put away in different categories. The two of them smiled at each other when they finished the last knife, which made Li Ze, who was admiring the knife technique, feel a chill, these two guys probably sympathized with each other.

From the small to the big, or Tu Lichun also wants to show his kung fu in front of Shi Zhuang, so that this mysterious guy doesn't underestimate the people around Gongzi!

"Brother Tu, take a break, I'll prepare food for the young master." Shi Zhuang nodded at Tu Lichun, picked up a piece of meat on the board and said: "Childe, this is the waist meat on the pig's body, the best way to eat is to boil a pot of water, put a little oil, and then add green onions, ginger and garlic, cut into strips and put it in the pot, and boil the water for a while."

"Okay, waiting for your deliciousness!" Li Ze smiled and turned his head to look at Tu Lichun: "It seems that you and Shi Zhuang are indistinguishable in terms of knife skills, but this cooking ability, you are afraid that it is much inferior, right?"

Tu Lichun spread his hands: "Childe, the only thing I will do is to call the chicken, a ball of mud wrapped in the fire and burned. The only condiment that will be made is probably to rub salt on top of the chicken."

Li Ze laughed.

"Brother Shi, you can't just cook this dish, there are several of us! This loin meat is enough for the son to eat alone." Tu Lichun Road.

"Ready-made ingredients, of course." Shi Zhuang walked back to the house with a smile, took out an iron pot and some bottles and cans, and worked in the stove room on the edge of the yard.

Speaking of iron pots, this is still Li Ze's masterpiece.

At this time, when people eat, there are probably two ways to cook him, either boiling or steaming, which can also make many exquisite dishes, but Li Ze can't be satisfied, so he makes an iron pot. There is a blacksmith at home, and it is not difficult to make, draw a picture, and let them make about the first iron pot and the first iron spatula in the world.

Slowly, this thing began to slowly become popular in Zhuangzi, and now many tenant families have also ordered some from the iron mill on Zhuangzi after their lives have improved.

And the dishes that match the iron pot have also been slowly developed, and eating has always been the most important thing for the Chinese people.

Of course, it is the chef of Zhuangzi who makes countless dishes, because their job is this, all day long, they are thinking about how to make dishes that satisfy the master's family, and Li Ze often guides them, and there are more and more dishes on Zhuangzi today.

It's a pity that there is no chili, otherwise Li Ze can get the authentic Sichuan cuisine out, in the last life, he is the best bite, although there is also a pepper now, but the lack of chili pepper, just numb is not spicy, and it will lose the soul that should be, Li Ze also wants to find a plant to replace the chili pepper, but unfortunately, up to now, what can be found is far from it.

Tu Lichun naturally didn't know that the little boy beside him had already wandered out of the world at this moment, but he saw the shiny saliva hanging on the corner of Li Ze's mouth, and thought that the boy was hooked by the fragrance of Shi Zhuang's cooking.

It is said that Shi Zhuang's craftsmanship is really good, and in a moment, a table of dishes with good color and fragrance is placed on the table. The best loin meat is cut into extremely thin slices, and each slice is as thin as a cicada's wings.

"Childe, try it?" Shi Zhuang rubbed his hands and stood in front of Li Ze and said with a smile.

"It's not the first time to eat the food you cooked, your craftsmanship, naturally, needless to say, come, come, come over, sit down and eat together." Li Ze beckoned everyone.

Everyone doesn't shirk it, in Zhuangzi, it is natural to abide by the rules and disciplines, but after coming out, the little boy is not so particular, and after following Li Ze for so long, they are also familiar with Li Ze's style.

After a full meal, several guards carried the pork and escorted Li Ze into the hidden path behind the house, and the horses that rode were naturally left in this courtyard and taken care of by Shi Zhuang.

"Childe, Shi Zhuang, I really can't understand it, I can't see through it." Stepping on the thick fallen leaves, Tu Lichun thought about it, shook his head, and said to Li Ze. It's like a thick layer of fog on his body, and he always hides himself in it, but if you want to say that he is uneasy and kind to Childe, then it is definitely not, this, it is really unsettling."

"There's no need to get to the bottom of it." Li Ze casually plucked a grass stem, wiped it a few times, removed the fresh soil on it, put it in his mouth and chewed it, tasting the slightly sweet and bitter taste: "The important thing is the present and the future. Who doesn't have a little secret? You're not slaughtering a tiger, don't be suspicious about everything."

"I'm not suspicious of him, from the time he put his son on Zhuangzi, I completely trusted him." Tu Lichun: "But it's just that I'm worried in my heart."

"Since you can trust it, then be brothers, who can say for sure what will happen in the future?" Li Ze spit out the grass foam in his mouth, "Maybe we will live here in peace for the rest of our lives?"

"Childe, it would be better if you really want to live here like this all the time, but those children in the mountains will have to be resettled when the time comes, right?"

"Our business outside is getting bigger and bigger, and we need more people. Slaughtering tigers is also needed everywhere." Li Ze said quietly: "Even if we all hope to live in peace in this life, we must always be clear about the things outside, as the saying goes, if you don't go out, you will know the world's affairs, we are not Xiucai, but we must know the world's affairs, so that we can make the best arrangements when there is really something."

"Childe is right."

"Just look at Shi Zhuang, if he can clearly know that someone has bad intentions towards his wife, with his ability, how could such a tragic thing happen, even if he leaves, it is also a way to avoid trouble, isn't it? Tu Lichun, our identity is different from ordinary people, if we really keep ignorant, one day, the end may be worse than Shi Zhuang that day."

Tu Lichun's body suddenly oozed a cold sweat.
