After reading the letter written by Ali, Xiang Yu also felt that after Cui Shan died, someone still had to replace him to complete the task of collecting intelligence in the Khitan and observing Yelu Hongye's every move, so he also nodded, "Well, although this Cui Shan is very hateful, it seems that his two right-hand men are not with him, since they regard Cui Shan as an enemy, then we can make good use of it." ”

"Xiang Wang Yingming, as soon as this Cui Shan dies, it is very suitable for the Khitan to be taken care of by the two of their Cui Shan's enemies, and they are familiar with it, there is absolutely no problem. However, Xiang Wang, I think this so-called compressed steamed bun still needs to be verified. You can't just say that this thing really works just by relying on Ah Li's side of the story, you still have to put it into practice. Let the guys take it and study it, and you'll know it by trying. Wang Mang proposed.

Xiang Yu asked the man to immediately test this compressed steamed bun according to the recipe. The first is the production of puffed powder, and then the water content of the puffed powder is tested, so as to grasp the amount of water, the particles of the puffed powder can not be too fine, and then the powder is adjusted.

Start to mix the powder, add oil first, mix thoroughly, then add water, and stir well. The temperature of the powder should not be too low, otherwise it is easy to agglomerate, and the temperature of the powder needs to exceed the boiling high temperature, so the entire team in charge of logistics has joined the team of burning the fire, and finally the temperature continues to be more than 100 degrees. Then stir in the sugar, salt and sesame seeds.

After the powder is adjusted, it is necessary to carry out high temperature and high pressure molding, and after the high temperature and high pressure molding is successful, it can be packaged, and there is no problem with long-term storage.

"King Xiang, the compressed steamed buns have been made, the little ones have already tried it, and the taste is delicious! It's fragrant, crispy and very filling, and sure enough, as written on the paper, I won't be hungry for a few days, and I'm still very energetic! Three days later, the cook who developed the compressed steamed bun brought the compressed steamed bun to Xiang Yu and said happily.

Xiang Yu felt that the novelty was about to try, Wang Mang stopped in front of him very doggedly and said: "Xiang Wang is slow, maybe there are some bad things added to this compressed steamed bun, you can't take it lightly, let your subordinates try it for you first!" ”

"How? What are you doing rolling your eyes, what is the smell, you should tell this king. Xiang Wang saw that Wang Mang was still unsatisfied after eating a piece, so he picked up another piece and chewed it, and couldn't help rolling his eyes, he couldn't help but ask.

"Wow, King Xiang's compressed steamed buns are okay! It is indeed fragrant and crispy and very delicious, except for a little hardness, it is simply impeccable as a military ration, and I feel very full after eating it now, which just solves the problem of insufficient food supply and inconvenient carrying for our soldiers. Wang Mang finished eating the compressed steamed buns, and his eyes lit up and said.

"Really? Didn't you say it earlier? I see that there is no problem after you finish eating, I have already said that there will be no problem with this compressed steamed bun, Cui Shan dares to take out his enemy's things to recommend, which shows that this compressed steamed bun really works. Come, let me eat a piece too. ”

Xiang Yu couldn't wait to pick up a large piece of the plate and put it in his mouth, chewing it in a big gulp. "It turns out that steamed buns still taste like this, this is really the best steamed bun I have ever eaten in the world, after eating this, I don't want to eat anything else."

Xiang Yu wanted to eat a second piece of compressed steamed bread after eating a whole piece of steamed buns, and was persuaded by the man: "King Xiang, although this compressed steamed bun is delicious, it is easy to support your stomach if you eat more steamed buns, especially if you eat too many steamed buns now, you must feel dry and want to drink some more water." This secret recipe says that compressed steamed bread is to concentrate a large amount of grain into a small piece of steamed bread, and after encountering water, all the grain in it will rise, and it is easy to eat it to support the stomach when the time comes. ”

"Haha, don't worry, this king is strong, he has a big appetite, and he once ate most of the sheep when he was young, and this small piece of compressed steamed bun is not enough for me to stuff my teeth!" Xiang Yu said as he picked up the second compressed steamed bun.

The guy was afraid of Xiang Yu's monotony and introduced the second way to eat compressed steamed buns, which is to soak compressed steamed buns in water, and add more water to drink as porridge, and less water to eat as rice, which is a good way to kill two birds with one stone. Wang Mang and Xiang Yu were so happy that they found such a good thing, and praised this Ali as a rare talent. But how could they have thought that even this compressed steamed bun that could save their lives would eventually kill them, this is a later story, and we will talk about it later.

At this time, King Xiang was already very sure that the recipe for compressing steamed buns written by Ali was indeed a good thing, plus Abu recommended by Cui Shan had done so many things for Cui Shan in the Khitan, and he had always thought that these were all done by Cui Shan, it seems that now the talent has not been killed by himself, and he is still in the Tianyi Inn in the Khitan, so he has to reuse the two of them. In addition, even Wang Mang recommended the two of them, and it seems that the two of them will not be the same as Cui Shan, and their character is extremely poor. Originally, Xiang Yu wanted to recruit them to the base camp in Henan, but Wang Mang was afraid that after these two people were full-fledged in the future, they would be like Cui Shan and disobey his own control, so he suggested that Xiang Wang continue to let them stay in Khitan, after all, they were more familiar with it there, and it was more suitable to stay there to do things.

So Xiang Yu unprecedentedly promoted Cui Shan's subordinates Ali and Abu to manage the Tianyi Inn, and continued to help him collect intelligence in Khitan instead of Cui Shan.

On the one hand, Abu and Ali were helping Chen Qingyan find the whereabouts of the man with three moles under his feet in the Khitan Imperial City, and on the other hand, they were anxiously waiting for news from Henan. Of course, what they are worried about is not that Cui Shan will have an accident, what they are worried about is that Cui Shan will not have an accident. Later, after Xiang Yu appointed the two of them, the stone in their hearts fell.

Now that Cui Shan has also been killed by Xiang Yu, they have not been implicated, but they have accidentally been reused by Xiang Yu, and they both sat on the big boss and the second boss of Tianyi Inn, responsible for liaising with the Khitan. Wuwei Daoist learned that Abu had the final say in Tianyi Inn now, and he was very happy to make friends with this young man who had helped him out of the siege. Now no one in the Khitan dares to do anything to the two of them.

Abu was able to play the role of pretending to help Xiang Yu collect intelligence while reporting all the true information to the Flying Tiger Army and the People's Liberation Army. Now Abu's identity has long been self-evident, his life jacket was once worshipped by Han Xin as a teacher, and the spear was lost to his elite team of the Flying Tiger Army. From the very beginning, Xiang Yu and the Flying Tiger Army quietly mixed in the soldiers before the war in Henan, and slowly worked his way up from the lowest-ranking creeps.
