Little did they know that while Shi Jiang was thinking about Weining County Prince's Mansion and General Weiyuan, she was also mentioned there.
"Is that woman really so scheming?"
Weiyuan General Xie Lianwu frowned slightly and asked his concubine Xie Liancheng.
Xie Liancheng tapped the palm of his hand with a folding fan and nodded carelessly.
"This sausage can be stored for at least three months. In this way, if you march, you won't be afraid that the soldiers below won't even be able to eat the meat."
Thinking of his soldiers, Xie Lianwu sighed secretly.
He was originally guarding the city in southern Xinjiang, but he received an order from the prince to lead the Xie family army to the northwest to change defenses.
It would be fine if this was an ordinary change of defense, but the Xie family has been guarding southern Xinjiang for so many years, and it is really unreasonable to suddenly change places, especially when the emperor is sick and the prince is supervising the country.
However, the prince is the king, and as a minister, even if the order is unreasonable, he can only obey it.
However, the journey from southern Xinjiang to the northwest, one south and one north, is long. Even if you travel day and night, it will take at least more than a month.
On the road for more than a month, the soldiers below him must not be allowed to eat dry food!
Fortunately, Xie Liancheng got such a recipe for making sausages. After getting it, he sent several carts to southern Xinjiang while making it.
After staying in Xie Lianwu's study for half an hour, Xie Liancheng came out.
As soon as he left Xie Lianwu's courtyard, he saw a maid hurried over, saluted him, and then said that the old lady invited her.
When Xie Liancheng heard this, he suddenly began to wail in his heart again.
If he had known earlier, he should have said what needed to be said to his elder brother and left immediately.
The romantic and suave Xie Liancheng was tortured by the old and middle-aged women in the palace who urged her to marry. He finally escaped. After leaving the Weining County Prince's Palace with a pale face, he left the capital with his personal bodyguards on the same day.
Women and so on are really terrible.
Raising pigs is not something that happens in a day or two. During this time, Shi Jiang was busy at home every day.
Although Xin Niang didn't know what her master was doing, she ordered her to buy a lot of flour.
This white flour is only bought and eaten by wealthy people. However, Shi Jiang asked her servants to bring the flour. She made noodles first, then deep-fried them in oil until golden brown, then picked them up and let them cool before adding them to the pot.
cook.
A simple version of instant noodles is ready.
I called everyone to come and eat, and when the first bite came into their mouths, everyone was shocked.
It turns out that noodles can still be made like this?
It's fragrant and chewy, so delicious.
Seeing how happy everyone was eating, Shi Jiang couldn't help but laugh.
When Shopkeeper Li saw Shi Jiang coming up to Wangtian Tower with a smile on his face to find him, he couldn't help but shudder, feeling as if he was being watched.
"Boss Shi, what are you doing?"
Shopkeeper Li welcomed Shi Jiang to the upstairs box and sat down, then asked carefully.
"I have a business deal, and I would like to discuss it with your employer."
After saying that, Shi Jiang took out a square piece of dough from the basket on his back.
Shopkeeper Li took a look at the noodle cake and was a little confused.
At this time, the business the boss wants to do is not just this noodle cake, right?
Not to mention that the bacon can be kept for several months, and it tastes very delicious. This can be seen from the fact that many old customers of our restaurant have come back to eat the sausage dishes.
It's a doable deal.
But how can a wealthy family not be able to afford this noodle cake?
There is a business here, but the profits are slim, so what is there to do?
"Shopkeeper Li, I wonder if I can bring you a pot of boiling water and two such big bowls."
Seeing shopkeeper Li's disapproval, Shi Jiang was not in a hurry.
It is not unreasonable that the Wangtian Tower in this county government is not as good as Tianxiang Tower in terms of business.
However, no matter how bad Shopkeeper Li is, there is at least one thing he can do.
He is not that kind of greedy person, and he is loyal to his employer. Even if he is stupid, Shi Jiang is willing to deal with him instead of going to Tianxiang Tower.
Shopkeeper Li didn't say much about Shi Jiang's strange request. He went out and called the waiter to bring over what Shi Jiang wanted.
In front of shopkeeper Li, Shi Jiang put the piece of noodle cake in a bowl, took out a small bag from his arms, poured the contents of the bag on the noodle cake, poured boiling water on it, and poured it with another bag.
Just put the bowl on top.
Shopkeeper Li looked at Shi Jiang's operation with a confused face, feeling really confused.
However, as time passed, a strange fragrance wafted out from the covered bowl.
Shopkeeper Li sniffed hard, then stared at the bowl with a look of surprise in his eyes.
Shi Jiang silently counted the time, opened the covered bowl, and a scent of aroma came out.
“It smells so good!”
Shopkeeper Li couldn't help but blurted out.
I saw that the noodle cake in the bowl had now become a bowl of noodles.
Shi Jiang pushed the bowl in front of Shopkeeper Li and made a gesture of invitation.
The aroma was so tangy that shopkeeper Li couldn't bear it at all. He picked up a piece of noodles with chopsticks and took a bite.
My eyes suddenly widened. I had never tasted this taste and chewiness before.
He couldn't help but ate it with big mouthfuls. After he drank all the soup, he burped involuntarily.
"Boss Shi, what are these noodles made of and how can they be so delicious?"
Shi Jiang smiled and did not answer Shopkeeper Li's question.
Instead, he took out another piece of wrapped bread and placed it in front of Shopkeeper Li, and then said solemnly: "Shopkeeper Li, this time I want to talk to your boss in person."
"Here, my boss went to the capital, and I don't know when he will come back! Also, I don't know if my boss wants to see you."
Shopkeeper Li was full of excitement, but after hearing Shi Jiang's words, he gradually cooled down.
However, looking at the noodles on the table, I couldn't help but swallow my saliva.
"Don't worry, I believe your boss will agree to meet with me when he sees this."
Shi Jiang said to shopkeeper Li very firmly.
This instant noodles is very convenient whether it is used as solid food during the march or for daily consumption. Anyone who knows how to do business will not turn a blind eye to this benefit.
"Boss at that time, I wonder if this noodle cake has a name?"
Shopkeeper Li asked curiously.
Shi Jiang didn't expect Shopkeeper Li to ask such a question. After being stunned, he lowered his head and thought for a moment, then raised his head and said to Shopkeeper Li: "It's called instant noodles, which means convenient and quick."
"instant noodles?"
Xie Liancheng, who had just returned from the capital, had yet to get his butt warm when shopkeeper Li hurried in from outside.
Then he took out a piece of flour cake from his arms, opened it in front of him, and called the servants to bring boiling water and a bowl, and started soaking it directly.
If he hadn't known that Shopkeeper Li had always been loyal to him, Xie Liancheng would have almost felt that Shopkeeper Li was playing a trick on him.
However, when the aroma from the bowl wafted out, Xie Liancheng's eyes suddenly changed.
