Chapter 370: The King of Sanlikun
Regarding Gao Jingfei's proposal, Wu Zhixuan raised her hands in agreement.
She said happily:
"That's it, tomorrow I will take you to Sanlikun to meet my father, mother and second uncle, and ask you to cook a few of these extraordinary dishes, and they will definitely be surprised by the time!"
Gao Jingfei was stunned when he heard this, why did this sound like a bit of a parent?
But he didn't think much about it, this set of extraordinary food practices from his second brother is also his biggest hobby so far, and it is very meaningful for him to be recognized.
"Don't worry, senior sister, I will definitely satisfy my uncle, aunt and uncle, by the way, do you have any taboos for uncles, aunts and uncles?"
Wu Zhixuan said with a smile in her eyes:
"There is nothing taboo in our family, but my father is an old-fashioned man, I guess he may embarrass you at that time, he may regard you as my suitor, recently my family is considering my marriage, there is a blind date banquet on the day of Qixi Festival, but there will be children of the Xia family in the Nanyang area to come to participate, so please bear with me......, junior brother."
"This?"
Gao Jingfei's heart moved, and he didn't know how to feel.
What does this beautiful senior sister mean by calling herself over at this sensitive time? Or is it just a pleasure to invite me to play?
For a moment, his thoughts were fluttering.
And Wu Zhixuan saw his expression, and immediately continued:
"As for my mother, she's very nice, and I think she'll definitely like you. And my second uncle, I have the best relationship with my second uncle at home, and my second uncle treats me as his own daughter, but he has some quirks, and he doesn't like women, in fact, he is a cold-hearted person, and his personality is also very good, I hope you don't blame! ”
Gao Jingfei was interrupted by Wu Zhixuan's words, and when he heard her description of the second uncle, as a young man, he immediately understood.
"Oh, I see, I'm not a person who has any prejudice against marginalized people, and I don't discriminate against them!"
……
In the evening, I made a few extraordinary dishes for Wu Zhixuan, and Wu Zhixuan, who was a lady, was still unsatisfied, and sighed:
"Junior brother, your extraordinary cuisine is really amazing, fortunately, Xiangni's little Nizi is not here, otherwise I would definitely not be able to snatch her!"
Seeing that Wu Zhixuan, a fairy-like figure, ate three portions of food in a row, and her stomach didn't bulge, Gao Jingfei was not surprised.
He himself and his eldest brother are the same, at the beginning of the cultivation of the Mangniu Jin and the Five Organs Divine Skill, the digestive ability and speed were also greatly increased, and after he achieved the innate achievement, he was transformed from a rice bucket into a walking food processor, and a whole cow would not show any performance if it was eaten, and it was directly transformed into qi and blood essence by the powerful digestion ability brought by the five internal organs qi and the Vajra Yaksha natal gods and demons, and then converted into the mixed element Vajra True Qi and stored it.
After staying in this manor for one night, Gao Jingfei also experienced what it was like to sleep in a bedroom in a royal mansion, except that the bedroom was a little too big, which made him feel a little empty, everything else was very comfortable and satisfying.
After all, the enjoyment you can think of has naturally been enjoyed by those emperors and magnates since ancient times.
The next morning, I simply ate some breakfast with Western style and integrated with the characteristics of Bo Ni, this meal Gao Jingfei was also more satisfied, these foods are very distinctive, a bit similar to the morning tea in Xiangshan Mansion, but with relatively light and refreshing snacks, fruits, dairy products and black tea.
He likes the coconut pineapple soufflé inside the most, similar to a shrunken pineapple bun but more milky, the taste is golden and crispy on the outside, but soft and melts in the mouth, and the pineapple filling is baked soft and glutinous, sweet and sour with a strong fruity aroma, which is the best Western dim sum he has ever tasted.
There is also a local characteristic of coconut milk is also very delicious, with the fragrance of coconut, the taste is lighter than milk, but the taste is unexpectedly mellow, it is said to be a mixture of buffalo milk and pure coconut flour.
It's just that he is a little unaccustomed to drinking black tea, but he still likes green tea.
After making herself a cup of spiritual tea, Wu Zhixuan also drank Gao Jingfei's pot of Longjing instead, this kind of spiritual tea from another world is also a rare experience for her, the daughter of a rich family.
After eating a full meal, Gao Jingfei was taken into the car by his cheap senior sister, and the group left the manor in a low-key manner and rushed to Sanlikun, a state located in the west of the Boni Kingdom.
Sanlikun is located in the west and southwest of the Bo Ni Kingdom, with an area of about 35,000 square kilometers, although it is not the largest state in the 250,000 square kilometers of the Bo Ni Kingdom in terms of area, and one-third of it is still mountainous and rainforest landforms, but the other two-thirds are relatively prosperous, and belong to the first economic and agricultural state of the Bo Ni Kingdom after the royal territory.
Facts have proved that no matter where the Xia people go, their talent for farming will not be lost, Sanlikun has the largest area of farms and pastures in the Bo Ni Kingdom, and the agriculture and animal husbandry are very developed, and it can be said that they are in the forefront of the cities in the entire Nanyang region.
The Wu family also operated shipping, shipbuilding, rubber and spice business, which were mostly very profitable transactions, although they were not as rich as the coastal oil fields occupied by the royal territory, but they were still very rich, and they were the largest capital in the country except for the royal family, or chaebol.
From the beginning of entering the Sanlikun area, when the convoy is on the road, there will be people driving to avoid it from time to time, and many people walking or riding on the roadside will stop and take off their hats and bow to show respect for the members of the Wu family.
Gao Jingfei realized why the information given by the Special Affairs Bureau said that the Wu family was the uncrowned king of Sanlikun and the real ruler of the western region of this small Nanyang country dominated by Xia descendants.
Because he didn't see any reluctant expressions on these people, it was obvious that this was not the Wu family forcing them, but their spontaneous behavior after recognizing the Wu family's convoy.
The road is full of bustling scenes, even when passing through the countryside, you can see various plantations and farms scattered along the road, as well as the verdant rice fields, which make the land full of life.
When he arrived at Sangpu, the capital city in the center of Sanlikun, Gao Jingfei found that the third richest city in the country was not as large as the high-rise buildings in China, but only as large as the satellite city of Jinling. And the residents live in blocks of communities, surrounded and decorated with well-tended flowers and plants on both sides of the street, and the most important thing in the city is the large and small parks, people leisurely stroll in the city, as if visiting a large park.
Or the whole city is a big park full of nature and beauty, which seems to be even better than the famous New York Central Park in the United States.
At least in terms of air quality and cleanliness, the tropical vegetation is far more vivid and beautiful than its counterparts in the cold climate of New York.
Wu Zhixuan explained:
"Sangpu got its name from the cultivation of mulberry trees, since the end of the Ming Dynasty, immigrants here have planted mulberry trees to raise silkworms, and later became one of the main production areas of Nanyang silk, although not as famous as Husi, but it is also the economic pillar of the local area."
"It turned out to be called Sangbao pu, which is another pronunciation of the castle word, which was originally immigrated from the northern part of the Xia Kingdom, and later because of the increase in immigrants from the south, plus there are many rivers here, so it was renamed Sangpu."
"You see, although Sangpu City is the capital of Sanlikun, the city area is not large, and the population is mainly concentrated in the suburban villas, manors or farms and pastures around the city, and the city is only the political center of Sanlikun Prefecture, where the government office workers and the middle class are the mainstays, and the dignitaries and wealthy people live in the suburbs, which is actually very similar to the big cities over there!"
"Thirty kilometers to the north, there is also our Sanlikun's largest city of Bogang, when the silk of Sangbao was woven into brocade silk in Bogang, and then sold by the port there, so that the two places prospered for a while, and the name of Bogang came from this."
"Paogang is also the second largest city in the country except for the royal capital, is the largest industrial and trade city, the second economic center of Boni, most of the population of Sanlikun Prefecture is concentrated there, Paogang is similar to the developed cities along the coast of Xia, of course, it is much worse than Yangcheng and Modu, the first-tier cities of Xia."
"Our population is still too small, there are only a few hundred thousand people in Paogang, of which 70% are of Xia descent, and we don't want to absorb too many immigrants from other ethnic groups in neighboring countries, so we can't support such a large scale."
