Chapter 0130 Barbecue tastes good
Yun Xiaoshui took the few grasses that Bing Shuang was holding in his hand, first looked at its leaves carefully, tried to identify what kind of plant it was, and then put his nose on it to sniff......
"Huh? No way? Cumin? No, cumin, also called benzoin fennel, is only produced in Anxi, that is, Central Asia in later generations, and only in Xinjiang in later generations can it be produced when it reaches our country? How is it that there are also primitive wild ones in this river area? Yun Xiaoshui couldn't believe it for a while.
Then carefully observe, smell, and even put it in your mouth to taste, "Wow, really!" It can't be fake! β
"Oops! Master! You're not afraid of being poisonous, aren't you? Just put it in your mouth! β
"No poison! Where did you see it? It's time for the seeds! β
Seeing that Yun Xiaoshui was extremely interested, Bingshuang couldn't help but be a little happy, and hurriedly led Yun Xiaoshui to find it. There are a lot of seeds, and seeds that are similar to the original rice grains are the best raw materials for seasoning.
"Haha! It's worth the trip! It's worth the trip! Let me get two excellent seasonings, and from then on, there will be a huge storm in Daqin's catering industry, and spicy hot pot and umami barbecue will make their debut! β
Yun Xiaoshui still sent his subordinates down to find it like he was looking for Chaotian Pepper, and he really let him find a lot of cumin that bore seeds. This time, he arranged for his subordinates to find them, uproot them, and take them all away in bundles.
Then pull out all the red peppers and take them away in a packing truck.
As soon as he got home, Yun Xiaoshui went to fiddle with his spicy and fresh seasonings, did anything happen in the palace, the court, and the capital? He didn't even bother to ask.
First of all, the Chaotian pepper and cumin can be used as a seed collection, and then the Chaotian pepper is worn up one by one to dry, and it is good to collect after drying, and it is also very practical, such as the whole ground is used when stir-frying, and it is crushed into powder after baking dry and coke, which can be sprinkled with it.
The production of cumin powder is a little more cumbersome. First, the cumin in the shape of rice grains is dried in a pot, then the star anise bought in the south is added, and the peppercorns are added, and then crushed into powder with a mill, collected in a clay pot, and taken out when used, mainly for barbecue.
A new food tasting activity was launched in the National Teacher's Mansion, and all the maids and servants in the mansion were brought with them, but there were no government soldiers, honor guards and armor soldiers, because there were too many of them.
Try two dishes, "Spicy Fish Head" and "Cumin Lamb Chops". The national teacher also cooked it himself, and the maids and servants of the whole house participated in sitting down to eat, which was almost unheard of for thousands of years!
As soon as the food was served, the doorman suddenly came to report that Ba Ying had come to see him.
"Hehehe...... Old sister, you really smell good! If you eat a lot of blessings, you will live a long life! Come on, try two of my new dishes that have never been seen before! β
As soon as they met, Yun Xiaoshui joked with a spring breeze on his face. I thought, just don't go to her again, anyway, I want to cooperate with her to make money, and it's better to let her taste it at this time!
After eating, except for Yun Xiaoshui himself, he carefully raised the copper chopsticks and put them in his mouth a little bit, and he tasted it very much, "Huh? Ahh
Some people are so spicy that they go to find water to drink and steamed buns to eat, but they still haven't given up eating fish heads and lamb chops. Swept away, and most people didn't have enough to eat.
After eating, I can't praise it!
"Master Guo! What is this seasoning? How can it hurt in the mouth? The more it hurts, the more I want to eat...... The lamb chops are even more delicious, fresh and not greasy, and no longer smelly of mutton! β
"Hehehe...... That's not called pain, that's called spicy! Sweet and sour spicy! β
"Wow, young master! These are the two most beautiful spices you bring to the table? That's great! β
"I said little brother! You are a god, and you should not have such an inexhaustible supply of whimsy and tricks. Sometimes my sister wants to open your chest to see if your heart is more than dry? And then sew it up for you! Giggle...... Cooperate with my sister to open our spicy fish head restaurant and mutton barbecue restaurant! β
"Old sister! I can't sell it for money right now......"
"Why? Little brother, you don't want to eat it alone, do you? You've got a big deal to make a lot of money on herbal medicine......"
"Old sister, why are you still so anxious? I have herbs, don't you also have dansha mines? Besides, your Ba family's mine is a million profits that no one can match! β
"Phew! Others don't know, doesn't your little brother know? How much does it cost to make mercury water for your majesty for free? How much profit do we have? β
"Hehehe...... These are trade secrets, don't spit them out easily! It's not that these two dishes don't sell to make money, but the conditions are not enough! Is there a chili pepper in the world? The barbecue seasoning is called cumin powder, is there? Not yet, I have to wait for me to cultivate it, plant it in large quantities, and then harvest it and make it into a seasoning before it can be put on the market! β
"Ohβit's my sister who is in a hurry! These limited spices are just the wild ones you find, right? β
"Hehehe...... The old sister is really ice and snow smart! Precisely! Very limited! So, I was going to make a copy for Your Majesty to try, but now I'm canceling this plan! β
"Giggle...... It should be! Sister dares to guarantee that His Majesty will not be able to stop eating once, and will continue to eat, and you will not ask you for the crime of bullying the king if you have no seasoning? Don't put yourself in chains! β
"How long does it take to be successful? Younger brother! β
"One year!"
"Good! Next year, we will cooperate to open the store to the whole country! β
What a big breath, but also a big appetite! Yun Xiaoshui agreed in his mouth, and had other ideas in his heart: "This restaurant can be spread to the whole country, but when can my fireworks business be done?" What can be done can't be spread out to do! That gunpowder is not cumin powder! β
"Report - Master Guo! His Royal Highness the Crown Prince sent someone to invite! β
"Oh - hasn't the little brother returned from the Great Wall to deliver the decree and meet His Royal Highness the Prince?"
"No! When I got home, I developed this seasoning! The people take food as the sky, am I not doing it physically! β
"So, you don't know the big things in the palace?"
Seeing Yun Xiaoshui's wide eyes, he knew that he had not heard anything about the big and small things that happened inside and outside the palace during the time he left the capital. Just when he returned to the mansion, Mrs. Leng Yue and the housekeeper Mrs. Yuyao were about to report to him, but he was definitely not busy listening, he said that he would do what he wanted to do first, and then go on business!
So, Ba Ying volunteered to be a propagandist for Yun Xiaoshui at this time, publicizing the recent major events in the palace.
After Yun Xiaoshui left, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince continued to go to the director of the Military Reform Supervision Department in Afang Palace, supervising the affairs of the Military and Political Temple and the major military camps across the country. And His Majesty the First Emperor took a pill of the Sealing Wax Elixir every day as usual, but the dozen or so poisoned pills that were still guarded by several palace maids and eunuchs suddenly disappeared one day for half an hour.
In the past half an hour, the two palace maids and the two eunuchs guarding the pills fell asleep at the same time, as if no one had seen them again. However, the dozen or so pills that Yun Xiaoshui left behind without sealing wax still made people look at it, it was premeditated. He conspired with His Majesty the First Emperor, in addition to the pills being guarded by people, there were also secret sentinels, which were very closely concealed and thoroughly observed. There is almost no blind spot in the surveillance of the entire Imperial Pharmacy inside and outside.
The Assassin went from fascinating the four medicine watchers with a wave of his sleeves, to taking the medicine and returning it, and the whole process was seen by the secret sentinel. The dark sentry did not show up, and quietly told His Majesty the First Emperor.
