Chapter 506: The murder caused by stinky tofu!(1/2)
Lu County is located along the coast of Surabaya and is under the jurisdiction of Pengcheng State. According to the city level, it is similar to Tieling today and is a relatively large city.
This is a small city, even by the standards of the time. If you want to ask why, I can only say that the location of this city is rather embarrassing. Just fifty miles up the Surabaya is Pengcheng, the seat of the Pengcheng Kingdom.
, along Si
The water goes down, but only sixty miles away is Xiapi, the administrative center of Xuzhou. It is equivalent to Lu County being sandwiched between a sub-provincial city and a provincial city. The only role it can play is just a transfer station.
It is just for people traveling between the two places to rest.
However, with the development of Xuzhou, businessmen from all over the world gathered in Xiapi. The role of this transfer station became prominent and the development speed was very fast. After all, individuals have to eat and sleep. As a result, the small Lu County became lively.
stand up.
On this day, at the street market in Lu County, small traders set up stalls and various shops opened for business. The whole market was very lively. Every vendor and every shopkeeper had a smile on their face, because today
There were many people and business was very good. Many farmers who came to the city from nearby villages and set up temporary stalls quickly sold their goods and left with smiles on their faces. As they left the city, they were still thinking about what to do next time.
Bring more goods!
Different from the smiling traders on the street, there was a hawker with a wry smile and shaking his head.[
His stall is at the end of the street, in the most inconspicuous position. In fact, he has a stall that has been occupied for a long time, but today is special. The things he sells are special. Everyone, including the policemen of Lu County,
He is not allowed to enter the middle of the street, where there are the most customers.
The stall's business was not good, but there were many people watching, covering three floors inside and three outside. All the potential customers just looked at it, but did not buy anything. Not only did they not buy, they also tried to persuade the stall owner.
"Lao Li, please close the stall quickly!"
"That's right, Lao Li, this thing is so smelly, can you eat it? Don't eat it and get diarrhea again!"
"Yes, Lao Li, today is different from the past. You are no longer as poor as you were a few years ago. When the tofu goes rancid, it goes rancid. Just throw it away and make another pot!"
"Brother, listen to my advice and stop being stubborn! I'm still waiting to buy your tofu. You put this thing here and smash your sign later!"
…
One of the detectives was holding a steel knife, covering his nose with one hand, frowning and saying: "Old Li, withdraw, please withdraw! Quickly make a new pot of tofu, my mother is still waiting to eat!"
The stall owner, who was called Lao Li, was in his thirties, but he was older in appearance, so he was called Lao Li. In the past few years, he had lived a very hard life, and he was the kind of person who ate more than he could eat.
. But in the past two years, he has made a fortune! Since the advent of Tian Fan’s new tofu, he has found a new way of living and started
He started making tofu. This man also loved to delve into research. In less than a year, the tofu he made was famous in Lu County for its smooth texture, novel patterns, and unparalleled quality. If you want to ask who is the richest in Lu County,
No one knows, but if you ask who has the best tofu in Lu County, everyone knows that it is Lao Li.
At this time, Lao Li had a wry smile on his face and cupped his hands and said: "Brothers and brothers, listen to me! This thing does not smell good, but it tastes delicious! Brothers and sisters, I have tried it several times, but I have never tasted it.
I have diarrhea and don’t feel anything
I don’t feel any discomfort. Compared with tofu, this thing is more delicious and definitely a good thing... Can I sell the food that I ate from bad people? I am from Lu County. If my sign is smashed, who will take care of it?
My little brother’s business?”
The onlookers are all old customers of Lao Li, and they know him well. Lao Li is honest, and will never let his customers suffer if they buy a pound of tofu. Moreover, he never lies, which is what everyone knows.
Know.
But, is this stinky tofu really edible?
At this time, when everyone was hesitating, a man smelled the smell and broke into the crowd.
He squeezed into the crowd, and the people he squeezed away looked at him angrily. He saw four or five martial arts masters with swords hanging on their waists and short clothes around the man. Look at the clothes of the person coming. This is not what ordinary family members can do.
Those who could afford it suddenly no longer dared to speak out.
The man sniffed it, looked intoxicated, and said with a hint of excitement: "This is the smell!"
When everyone saw it, they couldn't help but look at each other.
Lao Li was excited and took two steps forward, wanting to grab the man's hand and express his gratitude for the stinky tofu. Unexpectedly, a man suddenly appeared in front of him and separated him from the man.
Lao Li looked at the guard and saw that the guard was smiling and apologetic, but he stood between the two of them without hesitation. Naturally, he remembered the difference in their identities. But he still couldn't restrain his excitement and rushed
Holding the man's fist, he said: "This young master, I finally found someone who knows the goods!"
The man looked at Lao Li and said, "Zhu Yuan, let him come over!" [
Zhu Yuan nodded and moved away automatically.
At this time, Lao Li did not dare to show too closeness, because he saw that there was not just one guard around Tian Fan, but at least four, and two women covering their noses with grimaces on their faces. He strode to Tian Fan
Fan took two steps forward, cupped his fists and said, "Master, thank you so much!"
Tian Fan chuckled and said, "What's there to thank you for? You made stinky tofu, so I should thank you! Well, without further ado, let me ask you, how do you make your stinky tofu?"
Lao Li looked at Tian Fan and said: "This young master, this... stinky tofu..."
Tian Fan saw that he was in trouble and changed his words: "Old Li, right? I mainly want to know if this stinky tofu will eat bad people, not to steal your teacher! Haha, don't worry, I won't miss your money!
"
Old Li blushed, smiled awkwardly, and said: "This young man thinks too much, haha... haha. It's like this. The villain used to live a very hard life, and developed the habit of being diligent and thrifty. After learning to make tofu
…”
Tian Fan understood that this was an unintentional invention. The tofu was not sold out and smelled, so he ate it and found it delicious. He didn't feel bad after eating. So he studied for a long time.
, perfected the entire production process, and then planned to put it out for sale! Tian Fan can be sure that Lao Li did not tell all the details, but this is enough. It is similar to the process of stinky tofu that he knows, even pickling.
The seasonings are pretty much the same.
He nodded and said: "Well, good! When you go back, add some star anise, pepper and other seasonings when marinating, it will be better. Hey, without further ado, let's try it?"
Lao Li nodded excitedly and said: "Sir, please wait a moment. I will buy some pancakes for you right now. Haha, just eat the pancakes. They are so delicious!"
Tian Fan said hurriedly: "Don't worry! Haha, let's do this. You can find a frying pan and fry it to make it delicious!"
Lao Li was stunned, nodded in agreement, and went to work with a few regular patrons who were watching the excitement.
Over here, after hearing Tian Fan's words, Lu Xin naturally knew that he wanted to have a taste, but when he smelled the smell, Lu Xin ran away. In fact, it's not really smelly, it's just a little weird, and it still smells bad.
I can feel some fragrance!
But Lu Xin didn't think so. After just smelling it for a short while, she couldn't stand it anymore. Her eyebrows were raised up, her silver teeth were gritted, and she shouted to Tian Fan: "Husband, if you eat this thing, you will not be able to bear it today."
Don’t even think about touching me tonight!”
The whole place was silent, and everyone watching was shocked by Lu Xin's words! Huang Yueying and Wang Zi were also shocked, and they were all speechless for a long time.
Someone burst out laughing, and the crowd finally burst into laughter! Hahahahaha, this woman is so tough!
Tian Fan had a wry smile on his face. A tough life doesn't need a reason. Lu Xin used to be very tough, but she became much more well-behaved when she married him. After being persuaded by Tian Fan, the tough Lu Xin became
More tough
Tian Fan regretted it a little. Isn’t it good to have a well-behaved wife? What’s wrong with me? Besides, oh my god, aunt, can you please stop talking about the private conversations of our young couple in public?
Lu Xin also realized that she had made a mistake, and it was a big mistake, so the girl blushed and her neck became thick...
Tian Fan glanced around and saw that the onlookers were gloating about the show, and he couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed on his face. If I don't dare to eat, wouldn't I become a henpecked person? We are also good-looking people after all, and we can't do it just because of it.
You won’t eat even if you say a word, right?
Thinking about it, Tian Fan glared and said: "I will eat. Not only will I eat, I will touch you after I finish eating!" It sounded like what he said, but his voice and tone were somewhat "weak".
…
Lu Xin was desperate to find a crack in the ground. When Tian Fan said this, she became even more worried. She glared at Tian Fan, stamped her feet, and twisted around to get out of the crowd.
Wang Zi and He Xi saw them and hurriedly followed them.
Huang Yueying also blushed a little. She covered her nose and tugged on Tian Fan's clothes and said: "Brother, what should I do if sister Xin'er runs away? Why don't you go after her?" [
The onlookers still snickered, Tian Fanxin said, since you are tough, you must be tough to the end! So, he snorted coldly and said: "Not rough! If this woman doesn't fight for three days, it's all me who goes to the house to remove the tiles."
He's used to it! He needs to be taught a lesson!"
After a slight pause, he added, "It's okay. Wang Zi and He Xi are following. Nothing will happen."
Wuhan stinky tofu is a famous delicacy in future generations! Tian Fan has never eaten authentic Wuhan stinky tofu. In other words, it is really difficult to eat authentic things in future generations. Everyone knows the power of advertising effects. Everyone will look very special.
Authentic. Think about it, wherever there are Chinese people, there is basically authentic Lanzhou Ramen. Is this thing reliable?
However, today’s stinky tofu also tastes good, delicious! Stinky tofu is named because it emits a foul smell after being fermented by microorganisms. The main nutritional component of tofu is protein. Protein is a good thing, but it is a pity that it has no taste. After fermentation by microorganisms, it has a bad smell.
After that, the protein is broken down into amino acids, so all kinds of delicious flavors come one after another.
Delicious, delicious! Tian Fan stood behind the oil pan, wearing an apron, holding a spoon in one hand and chopsticks in the other. He threw the stinky tofu into pieces and fried it until the surface of the stinky tofu became shiny.
Yellow, then take it out and place it in a basin aside to cool.
By the way, when the stinky tofu was put into the pot, the stench became even greater, but its fragrance also came out. Many onlookers looked at the yellow and orange stinky tofu and smelled the loud and smelly smell, and did not leave.
Finally, the first piece of stinky tofu entered Tian Fan's mouth. Looking at Tian Fan's crowded facial features, everyone couldn't help but feel frightened. Finally, Tian Fan's distorted facial features relaxed, shook his head, and said sincerely: "
Delicious, truly delicious!”
Looking at the crowd, Tian Fan said with a smile: "Come and have a try. If you don't try it, you will regret it!"
As he spoke, he threw another piece of stinky tofu into his mouth, and what he ate was delicious. Influenced by this, a man in the crowd said: "Let me try it! Where is Lao Li's character? I don't believe this thing can
Eat dead people!”
