In the prefectural government.

Jin Fengting smiled faintly and said, "Prince Wang, that Xiang Zixi has already left Wuxian, and now is the best opportunity to suppress the Lady Workshop!" ”

Wang Xi's eyes looked up and down on Jin Fengting's body: "You really don't give up!" ”

Jin Fengting sneered: "Of course I won't give up!" That Xiang Zixi, didn't he just throw off the fat of his body? What's the big deal? She really thought she was Zhao Feiyan! You have to let all the men revolve around her to be satisfied! ”

"Yo Yo Yo, I can hear a sour smell!" Wang Xi smiled and said, "But, why should I deal with that Xiang Zixi? Isn't it nice for me to eat and drink like this! ”

"So, are you willing to be the shadow of that man for the rest of your life?" Jin Fengting said lightly: "As long as that man is there, you can probably only be his shadow, right?" Don't you want to plan for your future? ”

"Miss Jin, what you said is not right! I, Wang Xi, now have the identity of the son of the county order, with a group of wives and concubines, and I have no worries about food and clothing, what more can I ask for? Could it be that Xiang Zixi is really willing to marry me?! Wang Xi laughed: "Miss Jin, I have to admit that you are really bold!" You're not afraid of that man——————"

"But isn't he here now?" Jin Fengting suddenly sat down next to Wang Xi, gently took Wang Xi's hand, and said, "As long as he is not there, you are the real county commander!" So what you want to do, isn't it all up to you? When you used to bully men and women and do all kinds of evil, didn't he blame you and didn't blame you? ”

Wang Xi's eyes suddenly lit up: "You mean, I use this identity ——————"

"I didn't tell you anything!" Jin Fengting laughed coquettishly, and then said: "Xiangjia Town is the root of Xiang Zixi, if you want to destroy Xiang Zixi, then you can only destroy her foundation in Xiangjia Town first!" I can help you with this matter! ”

Wang Xi's eyes flashed one after another: "So you are already very confident?" ”

"That's it! I've been holding back long enough for this day! A hint of viciousness flashed in Jin Fengting's eyes: "How can the man I Jin Fengting fancy give up to others?" ”

Wang Xi looked at Jin Fengting with a smile, I don't know why, there seemed to be a trace of pity in his eyes, but it quickly disappeared.

Just when Wang Xi and Jin Fengting were plotting to deal with Xiangjia, Xiang Zixi took Jin Haoxuan and Xin Zeyang and had already left Wuxian and was moving quickly in the direction of Kyoto.

Wuxian is a considerable distance from Kyoto, far and near, almost 500 miles away.

Of course, this distance is nothing in modern times, and it takes only three hours to drive, but in the past, it took three days and three nights to get there by horse-drawn carriage alone.

And in order to go early, go through the formalities, and make all the preparations, so the time is already very tight!

From the moment the potatoes were cultivated, Xiang Zixi had already set her sights on this food festival, and it can be said that everything she does now has been carefully calculated and planned. In any case, if you want to survive well in any world, then you have to strategize.

Xiang Zixi happens to be the best at calculation.

Along the way, three people take turns driving. The reason why I didn't want to hire a driver was actually to save space and save all the effective space for storing potatoes.

Xiang Zixi has calculated, his storage bag has been used eight times, and there are only two chances left, and he must leave it at the most critical time to use it. Now, if you can save as many times as you can, and once you show it in front of people, then the effect will all disappear, and you will lose more than you gain!

Therefore, Xiang Zixi would rather choose this most primitive mode of transportation than try to save energy storage bags.

The weather in February is still quite cold, and potatoes are easy to store food, so Xiang Zixi is relieved to boldly put them in baskets and put them together.

As long as the conditions such as temperature and humidity cannot be reached, it is still not easy for potatoes to sprout.

But in order to keep the potatoes fresh, Xiang Zixi also took great pains, more than making a mask for himself, trying to keep the potatoes fresh and tender, and they would not sprout.

In this way, the three of them took turns to drive for a whole day, and finally arrived at the higher-level political center of Wuxian County, the seat of Jinzhou Prefecture.

The carriage stopped gently in front of an inn, and immediately got out of a small two, and asked with a smile: "How many of you are sharpened or live in the hotel?" ”

Xiang Zixi jumped out of the carriage, casually threw a string of copper coins to Xiao Er and said, "Prepare two first-class guest rooms for us, and after we unload the things in a while, feed this horse for me!" ”

"Gotcha!" Xiao Er, who got the reward, immediately went in happily and arranged everything.

"Oh my God, there are so many things, and you still have to move in!" Xin Zeyang's face was bitter: "Why do I want to follow this stupid woman to be a coolie!" ”

"If you want to eat, just work obediently! Where did so much nonsense come from! Xiang Zixi pinched Xin Zeyang's beautiful red face: "Just eating and not working, but it's absolutely not good!" ”

After speaking, Xiang Zixi rolled up his sleeves and was about to move potatoes himself.

Xin Zeyang stopped her and sighed: "My good sister, with us men here, can it be your turn to do this kind of rough work as a woman?" Alas———— what a miserable life! ”

Xin Zeyang shook his head and sighed, and while carrying a sturdy basket upstairs and putting it in his room.

Jin Haoxuan didn't talk nonsense, holding the two big baskets steadily in one hand, he came to the room with such a brisk walk, put down the goods gently, and returned again. After Jin Haoxuan walked twice, Xin Zeyang came down from upstairs.

Xiang Zixi stood in front of the carriage with a grin, and laughed at Xin Zeyang: "Hey, hey! Xiao Xin, now you finally see the essential difference between a boy and a man, right? See if you dare to brag to me all day long that you are a man! ”

Xiang Zixi's words immediately caused some of the surrounding guests and the boss to laugh kindly, and Xin Zeyang's face turned red!

"Okay, don't bully him! He has never practiced martial arts, he is only sixteen years old, but he has this strength is already good! Jin Haoxuan easily picked up the last few baskets, and said with a smile: "The weight of such a basket is not light, and it is good that he can move it alone!" ”

Xin Zeyang said viciously to Zixi: "Did you hear that? I've worked so hard! ”

Xiang Zixi couldn't help laughing and followed upstairs. As we walked up the stairs, some curious guests asked, "What is this?" So mysterious! Also move to the room! ”

"If I'm not mistaken, you're also going to the capital to participate in the food festival, right?" A guest next to him said: "At this time, the big bags and small bags are running to the capital, probably either cooks or officials!" You don't look like you're an official! ”

"Yes! We're the chefs who go to the competition! Vegetables, seasoning, or hometown! Xiang Zixi smiled and said, "So, you are also going to the capital to participate in the competition?" ”

"Yo! You can bring two assistants with you! What courage you have! The first guest exclaimed, "Don't you know that you can't win alone?" ”

Xiang Zixi suddenly became interested, and beckoned Jin Haoxuan and Xin Zeyang to go upstairs to put things, but he found a seat nearby and sat down, and asked for a pot of wine for himself and the other party.

Seeing that Xiang Zixi was very sensible, the other party immediately said endlessly: "Oh my God, you won't be participating in the food festival for the first time, right?" Don't you know that in the food festivals of the past years, it is some big nobles in the capital who win every time? Retail investors like us, if they don't unite and form their own alliance, let alone the final finals, they won't even be able to enter the preliminaries! ”

Oh? Sure enough, where there is organization, there is darkness!

"It seems that this benevolent brother knows very well! So tell me, what's going on? Xiang Zixi observed the words, threw a few flattering words over, and the other party was really fluttering immediately. Someone else was also interested in the topic, and the man spoke eloquently.

"Because this is a grand era held by the four countries of Yaoguo, Zhuoguo, Dark Country, and Minguo together, it is held once a year, and the four countries take turns to be the east. And because of the huge traffic and benefits brought by the food festival, it is also very huge. Not to mention the chefs who come to participate in the competition every year, there are not a few people who go to the capital for sightseeing. You can all imagine the huge benefits that this will bring, right? ”

Xiang Zixi nodded slightly, of course she understood this truth, this is the best opportunity for the economy, culture, commerce, and even the military to be displayed and improved! Otherwise, in the previous life, various countries sharpened their heads and wanted to host the Olympic Games! In fact, the truth is pretty much the same!

And the final winner can not only become famous by virtue of his own dishes and become the dishes of the palace banquet, but also get rich rewards. Ladies and gentlemen, do you know what this great reward is? That's a fortune you can't even imagine! It is said that it is a prize put together by four countries, and it is very valuable! ”

Xiang Zixi suddenly realized, it turns out that there are so many interests driven!

"So, these rewards are not only what civilians like us want, but even those nobles are also greedy! Therefore, those nobles will also send their own cooks to participate in the competition, and the name of the competition is not important, what matters is the final reward! You think, the rewards of the four countries are brought together, and that is absolutely eye-popping! ”

I see! Because of the drive of these interests, those nobles will inevitably use the power in their hands to eliminate weak opponents as much as possible, and a good food festival will become a game of competition between nobles in the end!
