The farm cook is very prosperous

Chapter 95 Ice Cubes Are Rare Items (1)
"Ah, oh, then... of course, you can use the silver chopsticks." Chunniang didn't expect things to change so quickly. It seems that this Mr. Gao is not so insignificant?

"It seems that the next trip to Dingxianglou is really worthwhile. The taste of this corn is really good, sweet and refreshing. Whether it is used for cooking or as a staple food, it is the best match. It can be called Each has its own strengths, and it will be difficult to distinguish which ones are superior in the next moment." Mr. Gao chose for a long time, and felt that each of them was unique, and he really didn't know how to choose, and he said to Chunniang apologetically.

"It doesn't matter, since Mr. Gao likes them all, it is also a kind of affirmation of our cooking skills in Dingxianglou."

"Your Majesty, I have one more thing to ask my lady. I wonder how long this corn can be preserved?"

"Mr. Gao, as long as the corn is mature and hangs up to dry, break off the rice grains, grind them into powder, and put them in a dry and ventilated place, it is also feasible to use them as grain for winter storage. You can use flour when eating Mix them together to make cornmeal pancakes, or mix them with coarse rice to make porridge.”

"Great, this king must spread this corn to all parts of the country," this Mr. Gao happily clapped his fan and kept applauding, even calling himself the usual self-proclaimed one.

Chunniang kept crying in her heart, this kind of person is not suitable for going out on tour in disguise, and when she is happy, she will easily reveal her identity, 'Ben Wang' will come out, and she calls herself 'Gao', isn't that the national surname?It seems that I can't do without kneeling.Looking at the group of cooks behind him, everyone seemed to have heard it. It would be impossible to pretend not to hear it. He secretly gave Dashuan and the others a look, walked out first, and knelt down and said, "Li Yuchun, a civilian woman, leads Dingxianglou. Everyone greets the prince."

"Ah, how do you know?" Mr. Gao was still in a state of excitement, and he didn't realize that he was showing his mouth at all. It was only when a man in black behind him stepped forward to remind him that he suddenly realized.

Mr. Gao coughed lightly, and paid attention to everyone: "I don't want to make troubles this time on this tour, I hope everyone can keep this secret for me."

The people below looked at each other, and everyone said in their hearts: "Everything is under the arrangement of the prince."

"Okay, you all leave."

"Yes."

"Miss Li, please stay here." The prince suddenly stopped Chunniang as if something had happened.

"Yes, I don't know about the prince, but there are other things to explain."

"Well, I will stay here for the next two days, and I will leave it to you to deal with the food and drink. This is what I promised you just now. I hope that I can taste your craftsmanship by then. Don't let me The king is disappointed." After finishing speaking, he left behind the box of gold ingots and walked out with many subordinates.

"Boss, but the lord has made things difficult for you." Seeing that Chunniang hadn't left the study, Da Shuan ran in again worriedly and asked.

"No, the prince will come again these two days. Please cheer everyone up, don't reveal anything, and tell everyone not to make noise." Chunniang shook her head and asked Dashuan to remind everyone again, after all The rich and powerful are not something these little people can afford.

"I see, you are planning to cook by yourself tomorrow, what about the ingredients?"

"I'll think about it, I'll give it to you later." When Chunniang walked to the desk, she picked up a pen and wrote down the ingredients for tomorrow.

"Boss, there is one more thing, I...I don't know if I should say it" Dashuan was hesitating whether to tell Chunniang about it.

"Say it, you call me boss, no matter what, I have to cover you."

"I saw Boss Huo's people wandering around our shop just now."

"You went to the casino again?" Chunniang looked at Dashuan in bewilderment and asked.

"No, no, I can swear, I haven't been there for a year. Why don't you trust people?" Dashuan became more and more anxious.

"Just kidding, it makes you anxious, your eyes are red, don't be angry, the boss is wrong, can't you?"

"Boss, I'm not angry. I just think it's a bit strange. I didn't see them yesterday. We just had a big customer in our store today, and someone is watching our store. I suspect that they are the same as the group of people who came today." Related." Dashuan boldly guessed suspiciously.

"Boss Huo, do you have thoughts about them?" Chunniang muttered softly.If they were really against the prince and the others, what would they do?If something happened to the prince and the others in her shop, she could jump into the Yellow River and still not be able to clean it up.Having said that, Boss Huo's influence in Yun County is not trivial, it can be said that she can cover the sky with one hand. She had eaten the guts of a leopard back then and saved Da Shuan's life.Later, after listening to Song Yicheng's account, I realized that there was a serious relationship. Boss Huo was kind at the time, and it was because Song Yicheng sent a large amount of compensation.It's not that Boss Huo is dying, but that the people behind Boss Huo want to touch this prince.

"Dashuan, send two smarter servants to pay close attention to Boss Huo's group, and report to me in time if there is any situation." Then he took the time to complete and complete the ingredients list and handed it to Dashuan. This is called the big hitch down.

"Chun'er, I heard that May next year will be the Empress Dowager's birthday, and the court plans to recruit chefs from the people for a gourmet competition in March next year. I heard that the winners will continue to have generous rewards, and they can even enter the palace as an imperial cook. There will definitely be some changes in the chef here." Sitting in the carriage, Chunniang kept thinking about Dashuan's words, completely ignoring what Song Yicheng said to her.

"Chun'er, Chun'er, did you listen to me?" Song Yicheng shook the dazed Chunniang and asked.

"Oh, I'm sorry, a big man came to the restaurant today, I'm thinking about how to deal with it?"

"Oh, let's hear it."

Chun Niang recounted everything that happened today, and also mentioned some strange behaviors of Boss Huo by the way.

"According to your description, you should be the second prince today. He has a good reputation in the court. His biological mother is Concubine Shu. I heard that he was favored back then. He died when he was ten years old. Since then, he has been raised by the queen mother. The relationship with the Queen Mother is very deep. His coming out this time must have something to do with the Queen Mother's birthday. According to my later investigation, Mr. Huo should have a big backer in Beijing. The current Emperor has only three sons, and the Queen has nothing to do. The status of the prince is not as high as that of the second prince, and the fifth prince is only six years old this year and he is still young and has not yet been crowned king. All things that are ineffective against the second prince will be directed at the elder prince, and if there are no accidents, it should be the same."

"You mean Boss Huo belongs to the great prince?"

"It shouldn't be wrong. When Boss Huo was young, he used to rob houses in the Taihang Mountain area. Because of the rampant banditry in that area at that time, sometimes even the government's robbing was correct. Therefore, the imperial court carried out a large-scale encirclement and suppression operation. At that time, the leader of the encirclement and suppression was Sun Chenghai, the general soldier of Zhili at that time. It can be said that the encirclement and suppression campaign was a complete victory. Now, among the group of people captured alive was Boss Huo. He was just a small person at the time, and no one paid attention to them. These people were later recruited by the court, but how did Boss Huo come to Yun County to open a gambling house and a brothel? It is unknown if he becomes the number one gangster figure in Yun County."
