Two days later, the Yunjiang County Food Conference officially opened, in addition to Yunjiang County, some surrounding gentry and celebrities also received invitations to attend the conference.

The conference is located on the beach by the river, mainly the place is flat and bright, and the river breeze blows, and it is still very cool.

The government has set up temporary stalls, which look very neat and clean.

People gather in groups, call friends to come and play, the conference not only has a variety of snacks, but also many games, guessing lantern riddles, rings, fire-breathing, acrobatics, lively and extraordinary.

The highest official attending the meeting was the Tongzhi Lord of Qingzhou Mansion, and the Yunjiang County Commander had been saddle up and behind, and he was waiting for him with a smile.

The county magistrate next door was also one of the fellow travelers, his face was indescribably jealous, and he cursed in a low voice: "Shangguan likes food, so he will work hard and waste money to hold a food conference to please him, and he has no backbone to read at all!"

The master on the side said: "Lord County, my subordinates don't think that the Yunjiang County Order is just for sycophancy. ”

The county commander of Bishui County glanced at him, and he didn't understand why his master was talking for outsiders.

Master continued: "My lord, think about it carefully, the imperial court has recently allocated a sum of money to strengthen the river embankment, but the transfer envoys have deducted some, and it will be even less when they go to Qingzhou Mansion, which is not enough at all. ”

"Yunjiang County Ling wants to get this money through the food conference. ”

When the county magistrate heard this, he slapped his thigh with hatred, why didn't he think of this opportunity to make a fortune.

If he gets this money, ask a few people to brush the river embankment with white lime, and it will be renovated, and it won't cost a few dollars at all, and the rest will go into his pocket.

The master seemed to see the chagrin of the county order of Bishui, and said confidently: "But the county lord doesn't need to worry, he has been prepared before he comes down." Yunjiang County ordered this huge formation, and in the end it was just a wedding dress for Bishui County. ”

Bishui County Ling looked overjoyed: "If you can cut off the beard, this official will not be able to benefit you." ”

"Then thank you in advance. The master was happy with his foresight, and hurriedly summoned a middle-aged man who was on the fat side.

The master introduced: "This is Zhao Shisan, the head of Minzhou cuisine. ”

Bishui County Ling frowned: "What does it have to do with him?"

The master felt that his own leader was too stupid, but he didn't dare to show it, and said respectfully: "Through some channels, my subordinates learned that Lord Tongzhi likes to eat fish, and the fish made by Zhao Shisan is a must in Minzhou.

Then the county lord took the opportunity to invite the Tongzhi lord to Bishui County as a guest, and his subordinates assisted him, and he would definitely get the money. ”

Bishui County Decree nodded, no matter whether it can be done in the end or not, anyway, Yunjiang County Decree can't be allowed to get the money, otherwise there will be nothing behind.

"Zhao Thirteen, are you sure?" asked the cook again.

"Xiaomin's ancestral craft of making fish, and recently purchased a secret hot sauce from the people, the flavor is wonderful, the taste is even better, and the task is guaranteed to be completed!" Zhao Shisan said with confidence.

"Well, that's good. The commander of Bishui County bowed slightly, and followed the team of Lord Tongzhi.

The master was more cautious, and asked Zhao Shisan: "Why haven't I heard you mention it before, what secret hot sauce?"

Zhao Shisan's expression was a little admiring: "I bought it from a traveling merchant, a very excellent hot sauce, called Lao Gan Dad, it is said to be produced in foreign countries, it cost me a lot of money, I really want to meet the maker of this hot sauce." ”

Old godfather, the master felt as if he had heard it somewhere, but he couldn't remember it for a while, since Zhao Shisan said that he was stable, there was no need to worry.

......

At this time, Yunjiang County Ling Zheng led the Tongzhi Lord to visit the customs, and informed the adults to be very happy, and praised: "Yunjiang people are outstanding and spiritual, the mountains and rivers are beautiful, it is really a treasure of feng shui, and you have made great contributions." ”

"Adults have won prizes. Yunjiang County Ling was polite, continued to lead the way, and inadvertently led Lord Tongzhi onto the river embankment.

The river embankment was full of potholes, and many places were broken, and Lord Tongzhi almost tripped and fell, the joy on his face disappeared, and he said sternly: "The river embankment has become like this, and your county government will not repair it?"

The Yunjiang county magistrate first confessed the crime, and then said without humility or arrogance: "After the subordinate took over the county magistrate, he immediately started flood control work, but when he checked the account books, there was no money, and according to the work records, the previous county magistrate applied to the state government for money five years ago, but there was no response every year......

Lord Tongzhi frowned, and he already understood what kind of medicine was sold in the gourd of Yunjiang County, but he was not angry, but felt that the idea of asking for money through the food conference was good, and he was a little relieved: "I see, this official has to go back and ask, which one is the one who is not open to the eyes and presses the money of Yunjiang County." Then again, I suddenly felt a little hungry. ”

Yunjiang County ordered to accept it when he saw it: "Adults here, please, all the delicacies in Yunjiang are waiting for adults to taste." ”

When the group entered the main venue of the food conference, the tourists and diners who were overflowing spontaneously moved out of the way and were polite: "Welcome to Lord Tongzhi." ”

"Today, the government and the people are happy together, and there is no need to be polite. Tongzhi smiled and greeted.

"My lord, we have a snack bar in Yunjiang, called the Otherworldly Snack Bar, and the food we make is really novel and unique, unheard of, adults must try it. The Yunjiang County Commander led the people to Qin Fei's booth first.

The booth arranged by the county order for Qin Fei was large and open, and it was easy to find it in the most densely populated opening, and after walking a few steps, the Yunjiang county order was dumbfounded.

I saw that Qin Fei's temporary booth was empty, and there was no sign of opening at all.

Yunjiang County Ling hurriedly asked the stall owner next to him: "Where is Boss Qin?"

"I don't know, Boss Qin hasn't been here. The stall owner next to him replied.

The Yunjiang County Commander was calm in the end, and immediately ordered someone to find Qin Fei, and at the same time, made up a reasonable excuse to invite Lord Tongzhi to taste other delicacies first.

Yunjiang County has a long history, and all kinds of delicacies can stand the test.

But when he was full, his interest began to fade, and he became less talkative.

But when it was the turn of a stall to make grilled fish, Tongzhi stopped for a long time.

The grilled fish here is made of small and delicate sea bass, with hollowed out internal organs, stuffed with some side dishes in the belly of the fish, and then sealed with bamboo skewers and charcoal-grilled on a shelf.

Finally, brush with a layer of spicy sauce, the fish is golden, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, spicy but not dry, and there are side dishes to eat, Lord Zhizhou ate four or five in a row, and he didn't even spit out the fish bones, and praised endlessly: "Well, it's delicious, everyone tastes it, what kind of name is this?"

Yunjiang County Ling ate a grilled fish, and also felt that it was extremely delicious, which was not comparable to the previous food.

And seeing the meaning of Lord Zhizhou, he wanted to order this dish as the leader, so he hurriedly asked the stall owner.

Unexpectedly, the stall owner's voice was loud: "If you go back to your lordship, this is the grilled fish in Bishui County." ”

The dignified Yunjiang County Food Conference, is it possible to choose for a long time to let the food of Bishui County win the championship?

Yunjiang County Commander's face turned pale, and he understood what was going on in an instant, and looked at Bishui County Commander angrily.
