Chapter 40 Potato Stew
Chapter 40 Beef Stew with Potatoes
The potatoes have been washed and the beef has been cut. Now let’s start making potato and beef stew.
Only then did Li Feng realize that the pot was too small and the tools were not good enough, so he walked into the kitchen and used the achievement points he had just obtained to buy a set of tools and seasonings.
As long as he needed everything he needed for potato stew, he would buy it at the system store. He had no choice but to solve the problem himself because the on-site hardware was seriously inadequate.
Li Feng found that the price of buying these cheap and low-tech things in the system store was not high.
A meal of potato stew and beef only costs fifty achievement points, the cauldron costs thirty achievement points, and the rest only costs twenty achievement points in total.
So he still has five achievement points, which is much better than just now, and he is no longer a pauper.
After an hour, a fragrance suddenly floated around, and the first ones to smell it were Tang Jian and Sun Simiao.
"It smells good," Tang Jian said, and kept twitching his nose, greedily smelling the fragrance wafting from the yard next door.
Sun Simiao was also twitching his nose. He came back to his senses from the book and was brought back to his mind by the fragrance.
"It smells so good. What kind of fragrance is this? Why does it make me drool more and make me feel hungry when I smell this fragrance?"
Hearing this, Tang Jian sighed: "I have long heard that Li Feng's cooking skills are very superb. When I saw it today, it was indeed well-deserved. People like you, Divine Doctor Sun, who almost devote their lives to medical skills, will be attracted by this fragrance. It is conceivable that this
Beef stew with potatoes is such a delicious dish.
Being able to eat it later makes me feel that I have no regrets in this life.”
Sun Simiao said with shame: "I'm really ashamed. I thought I was unwavering in medicine and nothing could shake me.
But I didn't expect that just the smell would shake me. Today I have such a good taste, thanks to Mr. Tang and General Chai, but it is a pity that General Chai does not have this blessing."
Tang Jian deeply agreed with this. Even though Chai Shao was not blessed, we were blessed.
At the same time, the villagers who were working in the winery also smelled the aroma of potatoes and beef stew, which made them stop what they were doing for a while. For this reason, they also broke several wine jars and wasted some wine.
It was the sound of the broken wine jar that woke everyone up and they continued working. As for the villagers who broke the wine jar, they had no choice but to bite the bullet and go find Uncle Fu.
Uncle Fu did not ask them to compensate, but just asked them to clean up and be careful next time. He also told everyone to prepare empty bowls and go to Li Feng's other courtyard.
All the villagers became excited at this time. From the smell, they knew that Li Feng's potato stew and beef were very delicious.
Originally, they were still a little resistant. Cows were their important companions. Having a cow at home meant that the family was living a very prosperous life.
However, if you eat a cow today, you are not eating your own companion. Although everyone knows that the cow died of illness or accident, the government does not allow the killing of live cows. Violators will be severely punished.
So when we let them eat beef at first, they felt very uncomfortable. Can they not feel uncomfortable eating a partner?
But after smelling the fragrance, they had forgotten the awkwardness and began to get excited. The work that originally took two hours to complete was completed in half an hour.
This is like a child who has raised a rabbit for a long time and is suddenly killed by his mother and turned into a dish.
The child was crying very hard at that time, but after eating the rabbit meat, he smiled happily and even said he would eat the rabbit again.
At this time, almost all the villagers were in the same mood. The difference was that they had not eaten yet.
In the Li Feng Courtyard, Tang Jian and Sun Simiao could no longer sit still. They had never smelled such a fragrant smell. Even the imperial kitchen in the palace could not produce such a fragrant smell.
However, they were all scholars and people with status, so they waited reservedly for Li Feng to deliver the potato and beef stew instead of queuing up like the villagers.
Because Taiping Village is not very big, the entire Taiping Village is already filled with the aroma of potato stewed beef.
As long as people were still wandering around the village, they were attracted by the scent to outside Li Feng's mansion. When they saw the long queue, they went up to inquire.
I learned that Li Feng had made a large pot of beef and potatoes stew and shared it with the villagers, so he also went to get a bowl and queued up to eat the beef and potatoes stew.
Muramasa, who had returned home with difficulty, suddenly smelled a fragrance, which reminded him of what Li Feng said when he was digging potatoes.
He wants to cook with potatoes.
"Is this fragrance made from potatoes?"
Only then did Muramasa realize that he seemed to have lost something important, which made him begin to feel regretful.
At this time, there was a long queue in Li Feng Courtyard. The people in the queue were all villagers, and they all held an empty bowl in their hands.
Li Feng, who was very busy, took a spoon and scooped out a spoonful of potato and beef stew from the big pot, and then put it in a villager's bowl.
Originally he didn't have to do this himself, but how could he let someone do such a good thing for him? It was better to do it himself.
"Give your wife and children a taste."
"Thank you, Master Li Feng."
"Next."
The next villager consciously held an empty bowl in front of Li Feng and shouted: "Thank you, Master, for your hard work, Master. Sorry for the trouble, Master."
Li Feng smiled and scolded: "You are very good at talking. Come on, I'll give you an extra piece of potato."
"Thank you, Master. Thank you, Master."
In this way, Li Feng worked tirelessly to scoop potatoes and beef stew for the villagers and chatted.
Half an hour later, every household in the entire village had a bowl of beef and potatoes.
After finishing all this, Li Feng came out with a bowl of potato stew and beef.
"Great, it's finally our turn to eat," Tang Jian said.
Sun Simiao said: "Li Feng, why did you share this delicious food with other villagers? Aren't you afraid that they won't be able to eat it in the future and blame you?"
Li Feng said: "Don't be afraid. If you want to blame me, blame me."
Tang Jian said: "Then what is your purpose?"
Li Feng said: "It's very simple. One reason is that I am happy and I am willing to do this. The other reason is that I want to tell everyone that potatoes are good things.
Of course, the most important thing is to tell the villagers that there are many good things in the world. If you want to have them, you have to work hard. If you don’t work hard, you can only eat chaffy vegetables. There is no such thing as getting something for nothing."
Tang Jian said: "That's right. There is no such thing as getting something for nothing. As long as they work hard, they can still eat potato and beef stew in the future.
If you don’t work hard, even if you can eat potato goulash now, you may not be able to eat potato goulash in the future.”
"Okay, no more talking. Let's start eating." Li Feng said.
"Okay, let's eat."
Tang Jian and Sun Simiao had been impatient for a long time. If the master Li Feng hadn't kept silent, they wouldn't have been willing to eat.
Outside the courtyard, Li Er's family of three had already arrived. Seeing the long queue, they came over to take a look out of curiosity.
Unexpectedly, they found that some beef stew with potatoes was shared with the villagers. Curious, they kept looking at Li Feng.
After the equalization, they saw Tang Jian and Sun Simiao. Li Er, who originally wanted to enter the other courtyard, stopped.
Will these two people reveal my identity here? Due to this suspicion, Li Er stayed outside for a while again.
Li Lizhi asked boredly: "Dad, why don't we go in?"
Changsun smiled and said: "If we go in and your father's identity is exposed by Tang Jian or Sun Simiao, it will be bad."
"This is not simple. Just tell Tang Jian and others not to reveal our identities." Li Lizhi said.
"Silly boy, they all know us, who can tell us?"
"Me. I'm disguised as a man now. It's strange that they know me. Even if my identity is known to Li Feng, it doesn't matter. At worst, in front of him, we can just pretend that we don't know each other." Li Lizhi said.
Li Er was stunned for a moment and said: "That's a good idea. You go in and let Sun Simiao come out to see me."
"Yes, Dad."
Li Lizhi walked into the other courtyard and came to the place where Li Feng and the three of them were eating beef stew with potatoes. Moreover, she forgot her mission as soon as she saw the potatoes.
"It smells so good. What are you eating?"
"Potato beef stew." Li Feng said. When he saw Li Lizhi, he frowned, "Who are you? How did you get in?"
Li Li asked: "I came in when the door was open. Please tell me how to make this beef stew with potatoes, why it is so fragrant, and what potatoes are. Why haven't I heard of it before?"
Li Er outside the door saw Li Lizhi chatting with Li Feng and the others, completely forgetting that he was his father, which made his nose crooked with anger.
"Second brother, don't be angry, the beauty is still young." Changsun said with a smile.
"Huh." Li Er stopped talking.
Tang Jian looked at Li Lizhi, who was disguised as a man. He looked more and more familiar. Finally, he remembered something, so he stood up suddenly.
"Old Tang, what are you doing?" Li Feng asked curiously.
After this meal, Li Feng began to call Tang Jian Lao Tang and Sun Simiao Lao Sun.
Tang Jian came back to his senses and said awkwardly: "No, it's okay. I need to urinate. I need to go and relieve myself."
Li Lizhi curled her lips and said, "Lazy people poop a lot."
Tang Jian smiled awkwardly again and left his seat without saying much.
Li Feng smiled and ignored Tang Jian. Instead, he looked at Li Lizhi and said, "Little brother, what do you want to do in Taiping Village?"
"I came with my parents to find Li Feng. Ah, what happened." Li Lizhi suddenly remembered her more important task.
Li Feng said: "Who are your parents?"
"It's us."
The person who answered Li Feng was not Li Lizhi, but Li Er who had just come in.
"Old Li. Godmother." Li Feng felt a little weird when he saw Li Er and his wife.
"Father, mother, you are here." Li Lizhi quickly ran to Li Er.
"You still know that we are going to enter, but you have forgotten your mission?" Li Er said very dissatisfied.
Li Lizhi saw Tang Jian sneaking in from behind Li Er, and quickly whispered a few words into the stunned Sun Simiao's ear.
Sun Simiao immediately shut his mouth and stopped looking at Mr. and Mrs. Li.
