Chapter 708 If you live not to eat

 The dumplings rolled into the noodles at home.

I don’t know when this sentence spread, but it is obvious that this sentence did not exist before Xiao Han came to the Tang Dynasty.

Moreover, not only does this sentence not exist.

There are not even dumplings, there are some, just something called flat food!

Bianshi, just by hearing the name, you know it has nothing to do with gourmet food.

In fact, Xiao Han felt that it might be more appropriate to call it a short cake soaked in soup.

I don’t know what the person who invented this thing thought. With such a thick skin, just put a little filling and cook it in a pot for half a day before it is fully cooked!

And if the person who makes it is not careful, he will usually not be able to bite the meat in the first bite. As for the meat in the second bite, it is also his own finger...

Of course, Xiao Han’s dumplings will never have this problem!

The dumplings made by the fat chef's pig's trotter-like hands are all thin in skin and big in filling! Once boiled, they are like a pot of small ingots. Not only eating, but just looking at them is a kind of enjoyment!

The dumplings I made tonight were filled with leek and egg.

The first crop of leeks in this spring is the most tender and plump! With absolutely pure local eggs, you can fit three of them in one bite with your big mouth.

"Hey, I want to eat three fresh stuffed buns..."

Unlike Zhang Qiang who started devouring the dumplings as soon as they were served, Xiao Han only ate a few dumplings and then put down his chopsticks leisurely.

He missed the dumplings stuffed with shrimps and chives that he had eaten in the past. They were so delicious that they were far more delicious than eggs and chives.

After thinking about it, Xiao Han suddenly became full of resentment towards Zhang Liang's family.

I don’t know if Zhang Liang is stupid! Since transporting salt is no longer profitable, why can’t we transport something else? I wonder if interoperability is the greatest significance of a trade route?

Chang'an is rich, but it doesn't have everything! Not to mention anything else, if those things that people on the seaside are tired of eating can be shipped to Chang'an, the price will definitely be sky-high!

For example, Xiao Han at this time, if he found that there was a clam and shrimp seller in Chang'an, even if it cost thousands of dollars a pound, he would weigh a few pounds to try it without any care!

Of course, if someone wants to find a way to transport valuable seafood such as shark fins and sea cucumbers to Chang'an! Xiao Han thinks that a palace alone can help him!

The money earned in this way is not only clean, but also much more than transporting coarse salt that is said to be salty or not, astringent or not astringent!

Just when Xiao Han was obsessed with his own plan to make a fortune, Zhang Qiang had already finished the bowl of dumplings in front of him, which was as big as a human head! He looked up and saw that Xiao Han was not eating, so he took his dumplings to himself.

in front of.

"If you don't want to eat, I'll eat! I think you're full. If you don't eat just these things, you're too hungry!"

After swallowing the remaining dumplings in Xiao Han's bowl in several mouthfuls until he couldn't even drink the dumpling soup, Zhang Qiang patted his belly proudly and opened his mouth to burp.

"Are you full?" Xiao Han, who came back to his senses, asked him with concern.

"I'm full! I can't eat any more!" Zhang Qiang nodded his head laboriously, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he got a mouthful of strong chive flavor!

Fortunately, the table where they ate was big enough, otherwise the smell would have knocked out those sitting next to us!

"That's good!"

Xiao Han nodded with satisfaction to Zhang Qiang, then looked at Xue Pan and others on the table who were still eating dumplings in small bites and said: "Since the most edible one is full, let's eat something good later!"

"I'll go, you've gone too far! Are you hiding some good stuff? Do you know that you will get diarrhea if you eat alone?"

Zhang Qiang, who was still hiccupping, became anxious on the spot when he heard that Xiao Han would have delicious food next! If he hadn't been so full from eating, he would have jumped on the table by now!

In the Tang Dynasty, others could doubt anything else about Xiao Han, but no one would be dissatisfied with him when it came to "eating"! Since he said it was delicious, it must be delicious! Accept any objections!

"Hey, hey, I'm not eating alone! Everyone at the table can join in, and so can you!"

Xiao Han bangs on the table and is happy, let you be greedy again! Don’t you know that when eating ginseng fruit, Zhu Bajie eats it the fastest, but he also eats the least flavorful one?

"You...I'm going out to eat, and I'll come back later and eat again!" He glanced at the people at the table who couldn't help laughing. Zhang Qiang stood up from the chair with great effort. Just as he was about to walk out, the door outside was opened.

.

"Hey, Brother Zhang, where are you going? I just made this dish, why don't you eat some?" The fat cook's big face poked out from behind the door. When he saw Zhang Qiang going out, he hurriedly asked.

"Eat, eat your head! You're doing it so slowly!" He cursed at the fat cook angrily, but Zhang Qiang walked out in no hurry and returned to his seat to sit down again. He insisted on looking at Lian Xiao Han

Everyone talks about what a good dish looks like.

"Ahem, Mr. Hou, do you want to serve?" The fat cook hit a snag at Zhang Qiang's place. The fat cook was a little embarrassed and quickly looked at Xiao Han again.

"Come on! Why not! Come on, come on, let's eat while he watches!"

Xiao Han almost laughed out loud at Zhang Qiang's appearance. He suppressed his laughter and waved to the fat cook to serve the food.

"Okay! Boys, serve!"

After receiving the precise instructions, the fat cook immediately shouted outside! As his voice fell, his apprentices walked in cautiously soon.

In their hands, they all carried a tall pile of white porcelain square plates.

"Quickly, put a pile next to each person, be careful not to get scratched!"

He ordered people to put down the square plates, and then looked at the table. Everyone, including Zhang Qiang, had a pile of plates next to him that was higher than his head!

"Okay! The hot pot is here for you!"

Finally, the fat cook took a hot pot from an apprentice, skillfully placed it in the center of the table, and used a fire stick to ignite the alcohol under the hot pot.

This alcohol, which has been purified several times, is completely close to the purity of medical alcohol. When it burns, it has almost no color! Only a few blue flames occasionally roll out to prove that it is still burning.

There was never a shortage of alcohol in Xiao Han's place, especially for this expedition. The winery was refining the liquor almost every day in order to store enough alcohol to treat wounds.

Although it is a bit wasteful for people like Xiao Han to use alcohol made from grain to light hot pot, but who makes us rich?

Didn’t you see that even the most thrifty Butler Lu didn’t have any objections to this? On the contrary, he felt that this looked like the luxury of a Hou Mansion!

"Xiao Han, what do you want to eat? So troublesome? Why do you have so many empty plates?"

As the fat cook and his disciples left, not only Zhang Qiang, but also Xue Pan and Xiao Min couldn't help but become curious. They stood up and looked at the high piles of dishes, but they didn't see anything.

There's something inside.

"What kind of empty plate? There's nothing wrong with your eyes, right?" Xiao Han said helplessly, then reached out to take out a plate from the top, rolled it in the middle with chopsticks, and made a piece of it about the size of a child's palm, as thin as a cicada's wing.

He picked the fish meat on the chopsticks.
