Chapter 27: There is no tofu in this world
"Is the Lord's troubles a private matter or a business matter? If it's the latter, why not speak it out and listen to it? When Wang Yong heard this, he immediately asked. It's not that he said it casually, but he felt that Cao Cao was waiting for him to ask.
With the strength when I met her for the first time, when I encountered this situation, I was afraid that she would answer directly: "It has nothing to do with you!" ”
Instead, show your weak side and directly tell a man who has known him for about two days that he is in distress. Slowly, maybe she in this world is so messy? After all, Dian Wei had just met, and he was directly requisitioned!
"You can't solve it anyway, so why waste your tongue?" Cao Cao looked up at Wang Yong, and his distrust was superficial.
Obviously, Wang Yong actually guessed wrong. Cao Cao didn't mind replying only because Wang Yong was already under his command. But from beginning to end, she didn't think that Wang Yong had the ability to solve her own troubles. After all, she has only known each other for two days, and the man in front of her can only value her because of the cooking skills and recipes he has mastered, and his cooking level is not even up to the qualified standard in her mind.
With her background, she is a high-class chef, and even has the opportunity to taste the dishes carefully prepared by the special chef.
In her opinion, Wang Yong's cooking skills are actually at the intermediate level, and they are not on the table. At most, it is not denied that he is indeed very talented in cooking! As for the rest, it's a pity that I can't see it yet, but she doesn't have much hope!
"Mengde, since our chef is so curious, why not satisfy his curiosity a little?" Xun Yu originally planned to help, but he couldn't say it yet, Cheng Yu had already said something.
Then he winked at Xun Yu, who gave him a grateful look in return.
"Huh...... It doesn't hurt to tell you! Cao Cao smiled slightly, "Some time ago, I used a little trick and bought a batch of military rations from Wanshiwu at a very small price!" ”
Oh, that's what the inscription says...... Or the thing you complained about? It is said that Wanshiwu has strengthened the trial, so Cao Cao wants to use similar means to buy a batch of military rations at a low price, which is no longer feasible!
"The problem is that we have just expanded our army, and this batch of military rations is still far from enough! So I need more food, and the problem is that the way of the house is no longer available, and if I buy it at the market price, I can't buy much at all. You must know that the price of grain in Yanzhou is almost three times a day! Cao Cao sighed, she had actually said this to a few think tanks in private.
After all, it's not a glorious thing, I didn't plan to tell Wang Yong about this cook, now that I said it, I will continue: "So I can only ask the gentry of Yanzhou for help, but because I killed the famous gentleman Bian Rang before, the gentry have a very bad impression of me, because I am the assassin of Yanzhou, I am afraid that I will use it, so I give in slightly and give two problems!" As long as I solve these two problems, then they will take out half of the food in the stock and donate it to me as military rations...... Wait, there's a hard question you might be able to answer! ”
"Oh, since I can answer, it must have something to do with cooking, right?" Wang Yong thought for a while and asked.
"That's true!" Cao Cao nodded, "They want to eat something that doesn't stink, isn't spicy, isn't sour, isn't bitter, doesn't be hard, can't be made of grain, can't be poultry eggs, and can't be roasted or stewed." ”
"That's easy!" Dian Wei pinched the steamed bun in his hand, "This one is not stinky, not spicy, not sour, not bitter, and soft!" ”
"Evil comes ......" Xun Yu smiled, "The title also requires that it can't be made of grain, otherwise it's okay!" ”
Wang Yong...... It doesn't seem to have been asked, what is your table? Cao Cao looked at Wang Yong and asked, only to remember that he had known him for a short time, and he didn't even seem to know his words.
"You're finally willing to ask?" Wang Yong replied with a little unhappiness, "Anyway, I came to conquer in person, at least understand the person you want to conquer, who is the surname, and what is the word?" Chang'an Wang Yong, the words are worry-free. It's a shame that I didn't come from a wealthy background, but I don't mind being the first generation! ”
"The owner's ambition is pretty good!" Lejin laughed, "It's a bit difficult, but don't give up!" ”
In this era, it is not easy for men without any background to get ahead. Among other things, first he had to succeed in marrying a wife, having one or three descendants before the age of forty or fifty, and pass on the skills. Otherwise, it's impossible to have a family or something.
"The owner is only in his twenties, and he is already scheduled to become the state chef, and if the owner goes further, he is capable enough, and he can naturally go further. However, even if he is a state chef, he should be able to save some assets, and he may not be able to marry a good match when the time comes. Xun Yu came forward to say something fair for Wang Yong.
"Hmph, that's also because it's Mengde! If he changes to another force, he doesn't even have the possibility of becoming a leader! Xiahoudun said very unceremoniously, she can admit that Wang Yong's food tastes good, but he is a person who makes her hate it!
"Let's not talk about that!" Cao Cao motioned for everyone to be quiet, after all, the topic was here, and he felt so crooked that he didn't know where to go, and then looked at Wang Yong, "Dishes like this, don't you know?" ”
"It's not stinky, it's not spicy, it's not sour, it's not bitter, it's not made of grain, it can't be poultry eggs, and the cooking method can't be roasted and stewed, right?" Wang Yong only felt that these words were a little familiar, as if he had heard them somewhere.
"Ahh Wang Yong reacted suddenly, it seems that he has indeed seen it somewhere, and in his impression, there is a scene in a certain animation where a nobleman uses this to make things difficult for the store, and the result is perfectly counterattacked.
The first thing the store uses is something that is not smelly, spicy, sour or bitter, and that is tofu!
In fact, after deducting this, there are still many dishes that can be thought of, after all, there is no restriction on the use of seafood, and there is no restriction on the use of cooking methods such as frying, stir-frying, and even steaming. Eggs are only limited to poultry eggs, and it is not good to restrict snake eggs and turtle eggs, and even crab eggs or even fish roe can be used.
In addition to tofu, there are also konjac, Chinese cabbage and potatoes.
"Didn't the shopkeeper think of it?" When Cao Cao saw Wang Yong's posture, he immediately asked in surprise.
"I thought of it! Just use tofu! Wang Yong nodded, as for konjac, he didn't know if this thing was in stock. After all, this thing is poisonous when eaten raw, and it needs to be processed before it can be eaten safely. It is estimated that in this era, no one should be able to eat yet!
"Tofu, what is tofu?" After Wang Yong said it, the others suddenly showed puzzled expressions.
"You don't know tofu?" Wang Yong is very strange, it is said that when tofu was in the Western Han Dynasty, it should have been invented?
"If we knew, do you think this question would be difficult for us?" Xun Yu explained.
"That's a good chance, I can solve this problem, I just need to make tofu! However, I only know the principle and need to let me try it...... Beans are generally soybeans, and black beans can actually be used, can these go through the accounts of the yamen? Wang Yong asked.
"If you can fix it, I can even give you a credit for one stone! One stone of black beans, or soybeans of the same value, must be researched to find out the tofu, otherwise, you will be responsible for the extra part! Cao Cao thought about it for a while, and finally decided to give Wang Yong a chance, "But the time is a little tight, within three days, it must be studied within three days!" ”
"Okay, I'll do my best!" Wang Yong thought about it for a while, and finally agreed.
