Chapter 48: New Ingredients and New Flavors

"What's delicious?" In the end, it is a child who is born with no resistance to eating.

Zhongli sold a pass, "You'll know when you get there." ”

So Zhongli took a group of children to the kitchen, at this time there was no one in the kitchen, Zhongli personally used tongs to pull out the ashes of the grass and trees, took out the sweet potatoes buried in it, picked it up and patted the ashes on it and broke it open, a strong sweet smell immediately floated out, so that several children were immediately moved, excited: "Second brother, what is this, it is so fragrant." ”

"It's called a sweet potato, you all have to try it." Zhongli handed the sweet potato in his hand to the nearest Zhongli, and said, "It's still very hot, cool down for a while before eating." ”

But the child didn't have such strong restraint, and after taking a bite carefully, he was conquered by the fragrant and soft taste.

"Second brother, this thing is so delicious, fragrant and sweet." Zhongli showed a satisfied look, and Zhong Li was soft again.

A child's world is always innocent and immaculate, and as long as there is something to eat, the best smile can be shown.

"I'll taste it too." She didn't bury many sweet potatoes, and after a while, she had one for everyone.

Zhongli stood aside, quietly watching them peel and eat the sweet potatoes carefully.

But at this moment, someone pulled her sleeve, Zhongli turned around suspiciously, and saw Zhong Liyun holding a big peeled sweet potato and handing it to Zhongli, and said sweetly: "Second brother also eats." ”

Zhongli's eyes immediately turned red, and he opened his mouth to take a small bite, and the soft sweet potato suddenly filled his mouth, but what satisfied her even more was that the children thought about her all the time.

"Is it delicious?" Zhongli stared at Zhongli expectantly, expectantly.

"It's delicious, it's the best sweet potato I've ever tasted." Zhongli felt his eyes sour.

"Then the second brother eats more, Xiaoliu doesn't eat, he gives it to the second brother." Zhong Liyun's small hand held a large, yellow sweet potato.

Zhongli rubbed his sour eyes and said, "Little Sixth eats, Second Brother is full." ”

Zhong Liyun took the sweet potato and ate it.

The family is happy, Zhongli sees it in his eyes and is happy in his heart.

……

The next morning, she got up and asked people to cut the sweet potatoes and cook sweet potato porridge, and then steamed some sweet potatoes to make sweet potato cakes.

The people in the kitchen were busy in her way, and she was watching from the sidelines, after all, she really couldn't cook.

"This stuff smells so good." A cook's child looked at the crispy brown sweet potato cake fried in the pot on tiptoe and said greedily.

Zhongli glanced back at the small radish head, "I'll give you a taste when it's fried and cold." "Actually, this thing is not a rare thing in the countryside, but the season is not right now, and this era is too poor, otherwise a few sweet potatoes are really nothing.

"Second son, the child is greedy, he wants to eat everything he sees, don't get used to him." The cook immediately pulled the child away, the main family was good enough for them, and she heard this sweet potato from another kitchen worker in the kitchen, but the second son bought it back at a high price, it was a rare thing, how could it be shared with them.

"It's just a bit of food." Zhongli shook his head, but he didn't stop her from leaving with the child.

After all, there are not many sweet potatoes left in her hands now, and if she really wants each child to share a little, it is really not enough.

It's better to wait for the autumn harvest to make a sweet potato feast for everyone to taste.

After they left, Zhongli had a few more sweet potatoes cut and fry the fries.

In the end, there were a few left, and she had them boiled and cut into strips and dried, and after a while they turned into dried sweet potatoes.

"Second brother, aren't your sweet potatoes ready yet, I'm hungry." Zhong Liyu came in from the door with his stomach covered, staring at the sweet potatoes that were being fried in the pot, and he felt that he couldn't stop saliva.

Now it's time for the children to grow their bodies, and they are hungry fast. Zhongli hurriedly said: "It's going to be fine right away, you go and tell everyone to sit down, and you can eat later." ”

When Zhongli walked in with a few people carrying sweet potato cakes and porridge, all the children of the Zhong family were sitting at the table waiting.

The servant immediately put the things in order, and after serving everyone a bowl of porridge, he withdrew.

"Second brother, what is this?" Zhong Liyu stared at the yellow fragrant porridge in the bowl and asked curiously.

"This is called sweet potato porridge, isn't it delicious for you to taste?" Zhongli sandwiched another sweet potato cake for everyone, "This is called sweet potato cake, and this one is called sweet potato fries." ”

"Sweet potatoes can make so many delicious things." Zhong Liyu took a sip and said with satisfaction: "It's delicious." ”

"It's good if you like it, when the autumn harvest comes, the second brother is making food for you." Zhongli rubbed Zhong Liyu's face, but heard Zhong Liyu knock on the table, "I don't say anything when I eat, I don't say anything, I have something to say after eating." ”

If you continue to talk about it, everything is cold, can you still eat it?

Under the majesty of the eldest brother, the family ate with a bowl.

After eating, Zhongli pestered Zhongli and said, "Second brother, tell me quickly, what else can you do with sweet potatoes?" ”

"Sweet potato, make it into flour, get out the starch in it and make soup, and you can also use starch to make noodles." Zhongli hugged Zhong Liyu on his lap and explained them one by one.

Zhong Liyu listened to it with relish, and he couldn't wait to eat it now.

Looking at Zhong Liyu's greedy look, Zhong Li felt funny, "Okay, the second brother still has something to do, so I'll leave first." ”

She can't be with them all the time, after all, whether it's the hotel and the glass factory or the things on the mountain, she needs to watch.

As soon as he returned to the study, Wang Qinglin walked in and reported: "Second son, I have already chosen a location, and now I specially invite you to take a look." ”

After all, it was such a big thing, Wang Qinglin didn't dare to make his own decisions.

Zhongli knew that now he still needed to experience, let him take an idea, he really didn't dare.

I stood up and looked at the sky, it was a rare day without sun today, it was a cloudy day.

"In that case, let's go and see." Saying that, Zhongli went out with the two little guys.

Wang Qinglin's location is by a river, the river water is just enough to clean the glass, and next to it is a wide land, which is conducive to transportation.

After looking around, Zhongli nodded with satisfaction, and was a little more satisfied with Wang Qinglin.

"The place is nice, well connected and well-watered."

"Thank you for the compliment." Wang Qinglin was happy in his heart, he had worked hard to find this place, and now he could get a compliment from Zhongli, all the hardships were worth it.

"Did you buy it?" Zhongli walked to the river and washed his hands, and the cool water instantly cooled his heart.

"I've got the deed."

Zhongli nodded again, secretly sighing that he had not seen the wrong person.

Stand up from the water's edge, "Then go find someone to build a house." "After all, now that Master has been invited, we can't let them be idle every day.

"Okay." Wang Qinglin is gearing up and ready to do a big job.

It was rare that there was no sun, and the weather was cool, so Zhongli did not go back immediately, but played by the river, and when he saw the fish swimming in the water, Zhongli moved his mind.

The fish in this water is the freshest, so it's good to get a few and cook some soup for the children.

"Second son, do you want fish?" It just so happened that a fisherman came from the river, and the people here who didn't know Zhongli came to them, that was a good person.

"How much?" Zhongli glanced at the fish bouncing around in the barrel, and his heart became more and more happy.

"No, no, no, it's just a few fish, where can I ask for your money." The fisherman was busy waving his hand, Zhongli's daimyo, they were like thunder, but they were just a few fish.

"How can it be done, this fish looks very fat, it must be difficult to catch, and the money must be given." If it weren't for the fear of her identity being exposed, she would have wanted to go down and catch fish herself, but she also knew that she didn't have that ability.

Seeing Zhongli's insistence, the fisherman had no choice but to cherish and collect some money.

After paying, Wang Qinglin returned to Zhuangzi with the fish.

After returning home, Zhongli asked the kitchen to kill fish and stew soup, while he returned to his room and began to draw drawings of the factory.

In this day and age, there is no reinforced concrete. It is impossible to build the factory to a modern appearance, and she must adapt to local conditions and build the factory in the most suitable way.

When he returned, Zhongli locked himself in his room and saw no one.

It wasn't until the afternoon that Zhongli came out of the study, and at the same time handed over the drawn drawings to Wang Qinglin, and the matter of the factory building was completely handed over to Wang Qinglin.

"Second son, the fish soup has been boiled." The man from the kitchen came to the road.

She happened to be a little tired after walking all morning, "Let it cool and put a bowl in my room, and then divide the rest with the children." ”

Drinking more fish soup is better for children's growth, which Zhongli is stingy from.

"Yes."

After a while, the kitchen brought soup.

As soon as it was sent in, a strong fishy smell wafted in, which made Zhongli, who couldn't stand the meat, frown, "Why is the fishy smell so big?" ”

"Childe, this is the original taste of fish." They've always done this fish soup and never felt anything wrong with it.

Seeing that the person who delivered the soup looked confused, Zhongli lost his appetite and waved his hand: "I won't drink it, let's take the soup away." ”

"But it's the freshest soup." They rarely drink it a few times a year.

Zhongli stood up and said, "Is there still fish in the kitchen?" ”

"There's a small one left." The next person didn't know what she was asking for, but she still told the truth.

Zhongli got up and went to the kitchen, and she found that people in this era did not use spices, and good ingredients were wasted.

When he came to the kitchen, Zhongli ordered people to kill the fish, and then taught them to use green onions, ginger, garlic and wine to remove the fish, and then put them in oil before putting them in water to make soup.

Unlike before, which had a fishy smell, this time the fish soup did not have a fishy smell, but had a faint umami fragrance.

The fragrance wafted from the kitchen to every corner of Zhuangzi, and everyone showed a look of intoxication, secretly sighing, it must be the second son who made something delicious.

"Childe, is this really fish soup?" The chef who cooked the soup took a deep breath in disbelief, and the rich aroma was very intoxicating.

Zhongli thought it was funny, "Didn't you do it yourself, can you still have a fake?" ”

I really don't know how these people lived in the past, and they can't even get rid of the fish.

"Yes, yes, I was stupid." The chef nodded embarrassedly and secretly wrote down what Zhongli said.

"Okay, let's take a bowl of soup out and let it dry." Zhongli was also very satisfied with this fish soup. Sure enough, it's better to do it yourself.

But now it's just getting started, and she believes that in the future, she will live her life the way she wants.

"Yes." The cook didn't dare to slack off, and immediately filled a bowl of soup and put it to dry by the stove, while Zhongli had already returned to his room.

"I heard you instructed the kitchen guys to make fish soup?" As soon as he sat down, the eldest brother Zhong Liyu walked in and asked.

"yes, the fish soup they make is too hard to swallow." Zhongli looked at the eldest sister, and suddenly had the idea of teasing her, "Big brother, I have observed Wang Qinglin for a long time, and it is indeed very good, what does the eldest brother think?" ”

Speaking of Wang Qinglin, Zhong Liyu's face turned red again, she was born and raised in this era, she couldn't do anything to joke, she glared at Zhong Li and said, "Second brother, it's not the eldest brother who said you, it's better to say less about these words." "After all, she is a man now, and if someone else hears it, what will matter.

"Don't worry, no one will hear it." Zhongli felt more and more that his red-faced sister was funny, and couldn't help but tease her.
