Chapter 4 The robbers come to the door at midnight
Foodie, the girl in front of me is definitely a foodie! Just because of her feasting now, Wang Yong had no reason not to think so!
Before she knew it, the shrimp porridge in the casserole had already been seen. The girl took out her handkerchief and gently wiped her cherry lips, but her spirit was better than before. She looked at Wang Yong and said slowly: "Sloppy!"
"The materials are limited, and this is just my dinner, so I don't plan to be so luxurious." Wang Yong smiled. It would be absolutely difficult to mess with women in this world. He just said that she is Xiahou Dun's colleague, so he has to deal with it carefully.
"It is not only delicious to cook with dragon liver and phoenix marrow. Excellent ingredients can indeed make the food more delicious, but the essence of food is actually the cooking skills and control of the ingredients." The girl knocked on the table with her fingers.
After a pause, he continued, "I'm just curious about how this shrimp ball was made? It's completely different from the shrimp balls I've eaten before. The key is where the store got the shrimps?"
This year, the drought last year continued, and the riverbed fell, and all the fish in the river went upstream. The rest were already found by hungry people to eat, and shortage of food is the theme of Yanzhou today. The girl was really curious about where the owner got the shrimps.
"Those are river shrimps that no one wants, with thick shells and little meat. Even now, no one eats them. There was a fisherman who used two kilograms of such shrimp and mixed two taels of corn here with me." Wang Yong did not hide it.
"I understand, you chopped the shrimp shells into it. No wonder they tasted different from before. I really lost the loss and I had eaten so many shrimp balls, and I didn't feel it at all!" The girl couldn't help but exclaimed.
"This tests patience and knife skills, right?" Wang Yong did not expect that this girl was an excellent foodie. At least he was sure that the girl was not a chef. Just look at her hands and knew that it was not a chef's hand!
"..." The girl stared at Wang Yong for a while before slowly getting up, "The feeling you give me is completely different from those men. Why do you feel like this? By the way, you are more like a woman!"
"Why shouldn't men be like this? In fact, I always feel that there is something wrong with men in this world!" Wang Yong directly rejected it. He knew very well that the girl was praising him. After all, women in this world did have excellent abilities. However, being described as a woman makes him very dissatisfied.
"Why do you have such an idea?" The girl looked at Wang Yong in confusion, "From the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, men and women have always been like this. Why do you think 'men shouldn't be like this in the first place'? It seems that you are not a person in this world at all!"
Oh no, she is so smart that she just listened to her simple words, and the guess is infinitely close to reality.
"What a strange man..." The girl looked at Wang Yong, "I have to say, you made me curious! I just hope that you didn't deliberately attract attention!"
Then he turned around and walked towards the store door. He said as he walked, "This time, the owner's skills are very good. Next time, I may come to eat as a formal guest. Speaking of which, I have been processing materials recently, right? In other words, I have to prepare the materials myself next time..."
The girl left like this, and Wang Yong didn't even know what her name was. Yishi's corn lies in the store, as if telling him that all this was true.
"Okay! No matter what, at least I made a stone of rice! Ha, I'm rich!" Wang Yong shrugged. He had been calculating about a few taels of corn before, and in a blink of an eye, one stone of rice appeared in his hand. Happiness came too suddenly, which caught people off guard.
Wang Yong came to the sack of rice and carried it directly. In the past, it weighed nearly 60 kilograms, so I was afraid that it wouldn't be able to carry it. After coming to this era, his physical fitness has improved a lot, and it is easier to carry it.
Wang Yong also suspected that his so-called time travel benefits were a genetic transformation that made him look handsome, have better physical fitness, and have more flexible brains...
It’s not that he had thought about becoming an official, but this world was completely different from the late Han Dynasty in his memory. Due to the changes in too many things, he was not sure whether the history he ‘knows’ was still useful.
He has been in this world for a month. In the past month, he went from initial excitement to final calmness, and finally gave himself a positioning, that is, a chef. He found that the status of chefs in this world is not low, which comes from women's love for food.
You can pick up girls and enjoy delicious food. There is no dangerous profession. If you don’t have a promising profession, why do you have to work hard to become an official? You should know that men have a very low social status these days, and even if they become an official, they will be despised by women. It is very difficult to get promoted. Why bother yourself if you have nothing to do?!
I cleaned the store and it was completely closed today, but this does not mean that his work ended here!
Back in the backyard, he has transformed it into a vegetable garden, cultivating the crops he brought to this era. Moreover, the water in the store has been used up, so he has to go to the wells in the market to get water. This is not good for the drought. In ordinary years, there will be special tap water pipes that can directly supply water to the store. He only needs to pay a certain fee to the water station every month.
Yes, TMD actually has tap water in this era! Although it is a human-powered pump, the cost is slightly high. You can get water if you don’t want to go out. Moreover, most families who are not short of money at home will open tap water, and the cost is not much higher... After all, there are no processes such as filtration and sterilization. As for manpower, how much is the manpower worth these days?
So, this world is completely different from the Three Kingdoms in his image. Not to mention biogas stoves and tap water, even glass and glass mirrors are available. Life technology has surpassed the level of this era. It is very difficult to make money by scientific inventions!
"Three water tanks... are worthy of being a restaurant. They use more water and prepare more water tanks!" Wang Yong spent an hour traveling between the restaurant and the restaurant before filling up all three water tanks, and also watered the crops.
Afterwards, he used scraps and purchased pig grass to feed the chickens, ducks and two castrated pigs in the backyard. After all, it was already past eight o'clock in the evening. Considering that he got up at 6 o'clock tomorrow, Wang Yong did not neglect, so he took a simple wash and started to rest.
I don’t know how long it took, but Wang Yong suddenly woke up when he heard a rooster crow. This month, he had become accustomed to the rooster crowing and getting up, but why was he so sleepy today?
Then he realized that it seemed that it was still dark outside and was shocked. The rooster crowing in the middle of the night is definitely not a good thing! Either a weasel enters the house or a thief enters the house! So he picked up the wooden stick beside the bed and went downstairs to check. When he came to the backyard, he saw a figure holding a chicken in his hand near the chicken coop and was about to turn around and leave.
"Ye, that thief, keep the chicken!" Wang Yong rushed over immediately and shouted.
"Oh no, run!" The person who came was shocked and turned around and ran away.
Chapter completed!
