A few sea crabs were steamed, a few ginger and shallots were stir-fried, the lobster was made into spicy lobster, and the chili peppers were freshly grown in the vegetable garden, and the taste was unexpectedly good.

At the beginning, Li Chengqian and Li Zhi didn't dare to eat the hideous crabs and lobsters, Wang Xiang naturally didn't take the initiative to let them eat, they were very happy to eat alone, and they didn't forget to help Wushun peel and peel the shell while feasting.

In the end, Li Zhi, a snack merchant, couldn't help but follow Wang Xiang's example, peeled the crab shell, tasted a bite of crab meat, and then went out of control, and finally the three large plates of sea crabs and lobsters were eaten up.

"It's so fresh and smooth, and the most tender lamb and deer breast can't compare to it!" This is Li Chengqian's emotion after grabbing the last sea crab and eating it.

"Wang Jiancheng, is there anything else?"

"Brother-in-law, is there anything else?"

This is the question that Li Zhi and Xiao Lori are most concerned about after eating.

"No, these things live in the sea, and they are not easy to get."

"Oh."

Looking at Li Zhi and Xiao Lori's disappointed appearance, Wang Xiang said with a smile: "It is not easy to get big sea crabs and lobsters, but small river crabs and crayfish may be able to find some." ”

Li Chengqian's departure from the palace this time was to buy things for Li Er's birthday banquet, Wang Xiang's vegetable garden outside the city was the focus, and the three of them and the lively little Lori went out of the city in a carriage.

Originally, he thought that ten acres of land was enough, but Wang Xiang underestimated the seeds in the warehouse, and finally set aside another piece of land near the first tasting winery, because this land is against a forest on the east side, so it is difficult to see the sun, and it is cool and damp and not suitable for growing grain.

However, such a place is a good place to grow fungus, which likes yin rather than yang, and the more humid the place, the more suitable for the growth of fungus.

When he went to the vegetable garden, he had to pass by a wine tasting workshop, and Li Zhi saw the rows of low tree stumps outside the wine workshop and immediately asked curiously: "Wang Jiancheng, what are those tree stumps outside the wine workshop for?" ”

"That's for growing fungus."

Li Chengqian said curiously: "Are you talking about Yun'er? ”

Wang Xiang nodded, Li Chengqian suddenly became interested and asked Tie Dan to stop the carriage, cloud ear is a more valuable ingredient than gold, it belongs to the tribute, although he has eaten a lot in Wang Xiang's mansion before, but he has always thought that it is Wang Xiang's treasure, but he didn't expect that he really has a way to grow cloud ear.

Not only Li Chengqian was curious, but Li Zhi and Xiao Lori were also very curious, and when they looked closer, they found that each stake was covered with fat black and shiny cloud ears, and there were hundreds of stakes, how many cloud ears would add up to them all!

"It's really cloud ears!"

Hearing Li Zhi's exclamation, Li Chengqian also squatted down and looked at it carefully, and sighed again and again: "Wang Jian Cheng's thoughts are really different from ordinary people, who would have thought of using wooden stakes to plant fungus, aren't you afraid that others will also learn it?" ”

Wang Xiang naturally knew what Li Chengqian was thinking, and said confidently: "Even if others know the method of planting cloud ears on wooden stakes, it is useless. ”

"Why is that?"

Little Lori had an idea and said, "Because they don't have seeds." ”

"Haha, the second girl is smart."

Hearing Wang Xiang's compliment, Xiao Lori raised her head triumphantly towards Li Zhi.

Not to mention the people of the Tang Dynasty, that is, if Wang Xiang hadn't checked the information, he wouldn't have known that the seeds of the fungus were actually the spores called fungus on the fungus, and the method of seed production was not simple, as long as he didn't say it, it was impossible for others to think of it.

Of course, he doesn't plan to plant too many fungus, scarce is expensive, in addition to what he eats in his own house, plus giving it away, the rest is also prepared for Dengxian Tower, ordering a plate of vegetarian fried fungus in Dengxian Lou is much more expensive than ordering a table of chicken, duck and fish, which is not something that ordinary people can afford.

"That's it, with the shrewdness of Wang Jiancheng, when have you ever suffered the loss of others." Li Chengqian shook his head.

In front of your father, it wasn't me who suffered. But Wang Xiang won't say this.

"Childish slave, Yun Er write down, make more Yun Er for my father's birthday banquet, and I will definitely be able to let Fanbang's vassal countries see the spirit of my Tang Dynasty!"

"Okay." Li Zhi responded happily, and he didn't know where to take out a small notebook and record it.

What does it mean to make more cloud ears so that Fanbang subjects can see the courage of Datang, and when does Datang's spirit have anything to do with Yun'er? Also, when did the Fanbang vassal state become a foodie alliance? Seeing that Li Chengqian and Li Zhi cooperated so skillfully, Wang Xiang felt more and more that the two of them came prepared, and even the small book was ready, it seemed that it was not good, and Li Er's gift was really not so easy to receive.

When he arrived at the vegetable garden, Wang Xiang's guess was confirmed.

"What is this?"

"Tomatoes."

"Maybe for cooking?"

"The cold mix with white sugar is sweet and refreshing, and the fried eggs are fragrant and smooth, and the boiled egg soup is even more delicious. This thing can also be eaten raw, and it is sweet and sour, and it has a unique taste. ”

Li Chengqian was overjoyed and said, "Childish slave, write down the tomato!" Such strange things will surely be an eye-opener for the vassal countries of Fanbang. ”

"Okay!" Li Zhi followed closely behind, and when he heard the words, he put pen to paper, and Li Chengqian was even more polite, hearing that he could eat it raw and directly tear off a big and round tomato and bite it down.

"It's really like what Wang Jiancheng said, sweet and sour and juicy have a different taste."

"Smack, smack."

In the blink of an eye, Li Zhi and Xiao Lori already had one each, with a smile on their faces.

"Hey, what is this? The shape is delicate, the color is red and bright, and it is very good-looking. After taking a few steps, Li Chengqian discovered something new.

Wang Xiang said listlessly: "Chili." ”

"This is chili?"

Li Chengqian has eaten a lot of dishes with chili peppers in Wang Xiang's mansion, and the spicy lobster he ate today uses chili peppers, but he has never seen the original appearance of chili peppers, so he reached out curiously to touch them.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had better not touch it."

Li Chengqian was about to knock down the chili pepper, but when he heard this, he stopped and asked, "Why is this?" ”

"This is Chaotian pepper, don't look at its small size, but it is the hottest pepper, if it is ......"

"Wow! Phew! ”

Before Wang Xiang finished speaking, he heard Li Zhi's scream, Li Chengqian looked back, Li Zhi held the half-bitten chili pepper in his right hand and burst into tears, kept sticking out his tongue, fanning the wind with both hands, and the small notebook and quill pen used to record fell on the ground and didn't care about it, how miserable and miserable it was.

Little Lori also had a chili pepper in her hand, and when she saw Li Zhi's miserable appearance, she was frightened and hurriedly threw away the chili pepper, but fortunately she didn't have time to taste it.

Li Chengqian hurriedly said: "What's wrong with the young slave? ”

Wang Xiang shook his head and didn't dare to hesitate to order Tie Dan to fetch water.

As soon as Li Zhi got the water cup, he poured it violently, and after three cups of water, his small stomach was bulging, and he felt a little better.

Li Chengqian was relieved to see that Li Zhi was fine, and asked with palpitations: "Could it be that this chili pepper is poisonous?" ”

Wang Xiang smiled dumbly: "What's poisonous, he just gives spicy, this thing is the hottest kind of chili, not to mention eating it raw, even if you touch it with your hands, you will feel hot and spicy, His Royal Highness the King of Jin is really courageous to eat raw chili peppers." ”

Hearing Wang Xiang's ridicule, Li Zhi's head lowered even more, he was embarrassed this time, he had a lot of tears and snot in front of Xiao Lori, his previous image was all ruined, and he didn't dare to raise his head when he followed behind.

Although I was frightened by the chili pepper, the chili pepper was still written down in a small book, and this thing is really good for cooking.

After that, no one dared to do anything strange when they saw anything strange, and they understood a truth, not everything in Wang Xiang's vegetable garden could be eaten indiscriminately.

Half of the vegetable garden was visited, and Li Zhi's small notebook was already full of pages, and Li Chengqian was more and more surprised, Wang Xiang's vegetable garden seemed to be even more magical than the back garden of the palace.
