"Haha! Mister has just entered the State of Qin and is tired from traveling. I have already ordered people to prepare some wine and dishes. Why don't you enjoy them first and rest?”Che Ying pulled open the curtain of the carriage and laughed heartily at Li Xiang.
"Tired from the journey? I'm in high spirits!" Li Xiang walked out of the carriage with a smile and looked around. This was the first time he had set foot in the State of Qin after transmigrating for so many years.
Ding! You have triggered a sub-mission. 1. Forcibly Qin, 2. Usurpation of Qin, 3. Destroy Qin. There is no need to choose between the three. If you complete one of them, you will automatically complete the mission. 50 Soldier Tokens, 10,000 Copper Coins, 1 Radiant Armor
"Heh, this system hasn't issued any missions for several years. If it wasn't for the fact that I can still exchange items, I would have thought that it had run out of battery.”When Li Xiang heard the notification in his ear, he stopped in his tracks and then returned to normal.
However, there was nothing he could do about it. The main novice mission was to meet Ying Zheng. If he did not complete this mission, there would be very few side missions.
"Come, please!"
Che Ying pulled Bai Shun to his seat, and a few waiters brought out a few bowls of food and a jug of Qin wine.
"Fat sheep stew?" Bai Shun looked at the boiled lamb leg in the basin, raised his head and asked. "It's Old Qin's favorite fat sheep stew! Would you like to try it, sir?" Che Ying slapped his thigh and looked at Bai Shun expectantly. "Wait!"
"Sir, what's the matter? Could it be that you're not used to it?"
Che Ying was puzzled. Stewing fat sheep was already considered a luxury delicacy in Qin, how could ordinary people afford to eat meat? Moreover, this was specially brewed. It was fragrant, so why did he look so calm? "You're making mutton like this? If you don't have chili, can you put some pepper?”Li Xiang poked the so-called fat sheep stew with his chopsticks and shook his head. "Pepper? My Great Qin produces Qin pepper, but isn't that medicinal? Can it be used as seasoning?”Che Ying asked curiously. "Medicinal? Did that mean there was? Then quickly send someone to the pharmacy to buy some back.”Li Xiang raised his eyebrows and said.
Che Ying had no choice but to follow Li Xiang's instructions and asked a waiter to go to the pharmacy to buy two taels of pepper.
"Sir is really the first person to buy medicine to make seasonings.”Che Ying tore off a piece of mutton gloomily, picked up a few pieces of dried pepper, and threw them into his mouth to chew. His eyes lit up. Che Ying was about to taste it again, but he found Bai Shun crushing a handful of pepper and sprinkling it into the soup. He hurriedly picked up the spoon and drank a mouthful of soup. Immediately, he felt a refreshing sensation, and drank another cup of Qin wine. He couldn't help but laugh out loud.
The Qin people's wine was the thickest and purest. The Qin people also liked relatively " heavy flavors." It was better not to try the numbing feeling of pepper. Once he tried it, Che Ying could not stop. He wished he could sprinkle some of the bitter vegetables beside him.
Che Ying was eating comfortably, but Li Xiang didn't even touch the fat lamb stew that was sprinkled with pepper and was considered a peerless delicacy in the eyes of the surrounding people.
There were also ingredients that could be sold in the system. Moreover, the lowest exchange point was only 1 point, and they could be exchanged for 500 grams of seeds. For the sake of his appetite, Li Xiang had obtained a piece of fertile land in the system.
It was too early.
If you wanted to eat noodles, you had to go to the Song Dynasty. If you wanted to eat steamed buns, you had to go to the Three Kingdoms. Rice and rice could only be found across the Yangtze River. You couldn't kill cattle. Tea could only be found in the Han Dynasty. Chili could only be found in the Ming Dynasty. Rape oil could only be planted in the Ming Dynasty. Even cooking could only be done when the Song Dynasty had iron pots. You said that the State of Qin can also use copper pots to cook? Do you know what copper is? Copper was money in Qin. If you wanted to make copper pots popular, it was like trying to make gold toilets popular in Saudi Arabia.
"Teacher, if you are not used to the food of the Qin people, I will ask someone to change it for you. The chefs here had learned a few tricks from the cook who dissected the cow under the King of Wei.”Che Ying said with a red face when he saw that he had already eaten half of the food on the table.
That's right, the King Hui of Liang, the main character in the story, was actually the current King Hui of the Great Wei. Because his capital was Daliang, he was also known as King Hui of Liang in later generations. The King of Great Wei was indeed worthy of the title of a big eater. He was also very particular about his food. Otherwise, there would not be the story of the butcher dissecting a cow.
"Forget it. I'll be full after eating too much boiled food. Do you have barbecue? Give me some." Li Xiang looked at the pot of fat sheep stew, a pot of boiled bitter vegetables, and a pot of dough lumps in front of him. He shook his head helplessly and said. When Che Ying heard that Li Xiang had finally taken the initiative to speak, he was overjoyed and shouted to the waiter beside him,"Alright! Someone, give Sir a dish!”
Looking at the large piece of roasted pork sprinkled with salt served by the waiter, Li Xiang silently picked up the short sword and cut the mutton into small pieces. At the same time, he shook his sleeve and exchanged a bottle of cumin and chili powder from the system. After all, he had saved up a few billion exchange points over the years. It would be a waste not to use them.
"Gulp!"
Before Li Xiang could eat, Che Ying, who was standing beside him, swallowed his saliva when he smelled the cumin and chili.
……
"I said that governing a big country is like cooking a small fish. I didn't expect you to be so proficient.”Che Ying wiped the saliva from his mouth with satisfaction and said.
The dinner ended like a farce. Li Xiang was arranged into a separate room by Che Ying while he went to report to the King of Qin.
After today's incident, Li Xiang began to feel that he could gradually bring out some things that did not belong to this era, starting from the food seasoning that had the least impact.
Of course, it was still too early for some key things to appear, such as the paper making technique.
Li Xiang would not really distribute these new things for free like a sage. From what he knew, Wei Yang had a business in Wei called " Spring Fragrance Cave ", and Li Xiang wanted to use this opportunity to try it out in Qin. As for the candidates? Who else can I leave behind?
In the evening…
A tall man in armor rushed into the inn.
"Mister, I have already met the Ruler. The Ruler invited Mister to attend the court meeting tomorrow.”Che Ying said in surprise as soon as Li Xiang opened the door. "You've just arrived, yet you're directly participating in the court meeting. Li Xiang laughed coldly and said. "Mister, be careful tomorrow. The Ruler said that you can say whatever you want tomorrow and the Ruler will take responsibility.”Che Ying looked around and suddenly whispered. It seemed like there was something fishy.
