Chapter 197 Sitting on the mountain and watching the tiger fight
"Well, it's delicious! Cough..." Fu Qiang covered his mouth and suppressed the cough.
It's a bit spicy! He doesn't like spicy food, but it's full of stir-fried food, so Fu forced himself to eat it. He took a bite of meat and drank a mouthful of soup, and his whole body was so hot that it felt like it was on fire.
"You eat slowly, I'll go out and eat with everyone." There were many people eating, and the pimple soup today was so delicious. She wanted to see everyone's reaction.
As soon as we got out of the carriage, beside the fire, adults and children were holding bowls and forming a circle to eat and drink.
Those who can eat spicy food get diced rabbit. Those who can't eat spicy food just drink the noodle soup.
"It's so delicious! This is the most delicious thing I have ever eaten in my life."
"After living so long, I realized that there is such a delicious thing in this pig."
"Little gang leader, this pig lung and pork belly soup is so delicious. I didn't expect it to be so delicious." Sun Huiniang couldn't help but said when she saw Fu Manman.
"Little gang leader, let's stew the pig liver and pig heart into soup tomorrow!" Aunt Dong said, thinking that these two stews should also be delicious.
"Okay! You can take care of these, but pig intestines cannot be stewed in soup. This has to be stewed." Fu Manman said, craving for the stewed intestines.
"How to braise it?" Grandma Wang asked.
"Well, add peppercorns, star anise, cinnamon, bay leaves, add dark soy sauce, bring to a boil over high heat, then simmer over low heat, add salt, a little rock sugar, if you like it spicy, add some chili pepper, the taste is really... amazing
Come on!" Fu Manman was so greedy after saying this.
Thinking back to when she first came here, she was so hungry that she could only eat tree bark.
Now she has the conditions to eat it!
When the group of people surrounding her heard what she said, they all drank the soup with tears in their eyes.
"Little gang leader, we have never heard of what you are talking about." Granny Wang was in trouble, this was not within her scope.
"Huiniang, do you know this?" Aunt Dong asked Sun Huiniang.
Sun Huiniang shook her head. She had never heard of many of those spices, let alone tasted them.
"I have been doing business. I know these spices, including peppercorns, star anise, cinnamon and fragrant leaves. I have never heard of them, and I have never heard of dark soy sauce. Moreover, salt and sugar are commodities controlled by the imperial court, and ordinary people cannot afford them, especially
It's candy." Sun Huiniang said truthfully.
"Yes! Even salt, we can't afford it. Half a kilogram of salt costs a hundred cents. It's really expensive!"
"What about your one hundred cents and half a catty? For us, half a catty is two hundred cents."
"We've got one tael of silver."
"We don't have salt for sale there. We all eat coarse salt. You have to boil and filter the salt yourself, and then soak a cloth in the salt brine. When you want to eat, you take out the cloth and put it in a pot and boil it, and the soup will be
It’s a bit salty.”
"Are prices different in different places? Doesn't the court control them?" Fu Manman asked in confusion.
Uncle Da heard what Fu Manman said and asked, "How to control it?"
"Unify prices across the country and put an end to price gouging," Fu Manman said.
Uncle Da shook his head, "The whole country? Today's Tiansheng is just a world where the feudal lords are divided and dominate one side. How can there be unity?"
"Without unification, there will be no future, and the people will never have a good life." Uncle Da sighed and took a big sip of the soup. It was so delicious!
It would be great if people all over the world could drink such a bowl of warm soup.
Uncle Da suddenly looked at Fu Manman. The thin girl in front of him had infinite power.
"Little gang leader, if you get a piece of land, what will you do?" Uncle Da asked.
Fu Manman drank the soup, looked at the jumping flames, and thought of Du Fu's poem, "There are tens of thousands of vast buildings, and the great shelter makes all the poor people in the world happy, and the wind and rain do not move as peaceful as a mountain."
This poem best reflects her mood at this moment.
Now she just wants to give everyone a stable life that can protect her from wind and rain.
Uncle Da was amazed! He looked at Fu Manman with unusually bright eyes, "Good, what a poem, the little gang leader's vision is very grand!"
The group of young men gathered around didn't understand what these words meant, but they all felt that what the young gang leader said was so literate, and the young gang leader was so powerful!
In the camp, a group of people were eating and drinking, and the delicious soup warmed their cold bodies.
Several large fires were burning brightly, and the red flames looked particularly dazzling in the dark and cold night.
This dazzling firelight covered up everything hidden in the darkness.
In the dark forest, not far from the camp, Fang Mulei caught two men in black. From the look of their clothes, these two men were not ordinary refugees.
Fu Qiang came after hearing the news. He listened to Chen Mutian's report and found someone quietly following the team.
The news of the explosion in Fengcheng had spread throughout Tiansheng, but he didn't expect that someone would be targeting them so quickly.
"Who sent you here?" Fu Qiang asked coldly.
Now they are in the light and these people are in the dark. You have to know who the other party is so that you can deal with them.
"It seems that you are not ordinary refugees! Who are you? Have you found a miracle?" The man in black looked up at Fu Qiang.
The young man in front of him was wearing a cloak, but the clothes were ragged underneath, with messy hair and a frosty complexion. The face hidden under the messy hair was extremely handsome, and a pair of gloomy cold pool-like eyes reminded him of a deep palace.
A lonely young man in.
"It's you! You're not dead!" the man in black exclaimed with his pupils shrinking.
"Do you know me?" Fu Qiang's eyes suddenly showed murderous intent, and then he sneered and had the answer in his heart.
"Are you from the palace? From Gongyi Wenyuan?" Fu Qiang was ready to deceive him.
When the other party heard Gongyi Wenyuan's name, his expression was unstable, and he just snorted: "You are a rebellious official and a traitor, you thought you could escape."
"You are Helian Aoqing's man!" Fu Qiang paid attention to the other person's expression.
When this person heard Helian Ao Qing's name, his expression immediately changed slightly, and he said angrily: "How dare you call His Majesty by his given name!"
Fu Qiang was a little unbelievable. That Helian Ao Qing was just an idiot with no ambitions, dim and useless, and a puppet of Gongyi Wenyuan.
When did he start cultivating his confidants?
Interesting! Helian Ao Qing turned out not to be stupid, he was actually better than he pretended to be. Everyone was deceived by him!
Fu Qiang had a stern face, and Fang Mulei said coldly: "Take care of it, don't leave any traces."
Fang Mulei received the order, and the long sword flashed cold light in the air, and the two men in black died unwillingly.
Fu Qiang gathered the cloak around him, his gloomy starry eyes flashed coldly, and his thin lips overflowed into a sneer, then he said to Chen Mutian: "Go and spread the news about Helian Ao Qing's search for a miracle, and let Gongyi Wenyuan
After a while, let’s sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight.”
Gongyi Wenyuan thought he was raising a sheep, but he didn't expect that he was raising a wolf!
When these two people started fighting, Manman's side would be safe, and no one would pay attention to her side for the time being.
However, he still had to remind Manman not to expose too much. She must have amazing secrets. Unfortunately, she is not strong enough to protect her secrets now.
