Although Li Er had eaten breakfast in the morning, he had started eating before dawn. He was almost hungry now, so he could eat three crab roe buns.
"Phew, I'm finally full." Li Yuan lay on the chair in satisfaction, basking in the warm sun and feeling comfortable.
"Villa Head Lu, aren't you going to help the victims?”Li Er asked in surprise.
"It's enough for them to help with the disaster relief work. It's just a small matter, why would I have to spend an entire day on it.”Lu Xiu said lazily.
"I think a few people are not enough. Do you want me to transfer a dozen or so experts from the army to you? If there is a riot among the disaster victims, how can you control it with just a few servants?”Li Er said kindly.
The main reason was that he couldn't persuade Li Yuan to return to the palace. He couldn't just leave him be. In order to ensure his safety, he wanted to plant a group of people in Lu Manor.
"If something really happens, Young Master will immediately stop helping them. A few days ago, more than ten disaster victims ran out to cause trouble, but in the end, they were almost beaten to death by the people queuing up. They were afraid that they would offend the rules issued by the young master and cut off their way of living. That's why tens of thousands of people were restricted to queue up obediently. In Anping County, our young master is called Little Immortal Master Lu. Who doesn't respect him in Anping County?”Li Ergou said proudly.
"But you're right. Lu Zhuang's manpower is indeed not enough.”Without counting the farmers, there were less than 15 people in the Lu Manor. The number of people who could command was pitifully small.
No matter what, he was a man who was about to get engaged. How could Lu Zhuang not have a few people?
"In that case, when I return today, I'll immediately transfer a group of experts for you to use.”Li Er smiled.
"Let me say this first. I don't want those who aren't powerful. After all, it's the important task of protecting Lu Zhuang.”Lu Xiu reminded.
"Don't worry, each of them is an expert who can take on a hundred people at once.”
"Alright! After this, I'll treat you to tuna chowder.”
If they were to recruit themselves, perhaps many people would sign up, but their quality would not be as good as the experienced soldiers in the army. Looking at Old Man Li's son's posture, Lu Xiu guessed that his official position was not low.
If he could find a few powerful people, it would save him the effort of nurturing them.
However, Lu Xiu did not know who Old Man Li's son, Li Ergou, would transfer. Therefore, he had to test it himself.
…………
In the afternoon, they ate the famous Beijing Roast Duck from later generations.
Li Er, who was originally very busy with government affairs, insisted on eating before returning to the palace.
He really wanted to see what kind of delicious food he would have for lunch.
However, to their surprise, the wood turned into a golden roast duck, emitting a fragrant fragrance.
The fragrance of roasted duck and fruit mixed together, making Li Yuan and the others understand that the duck in front of them was not a simple roasted duck.
On the table, there were all kinds of ingredients.
Lu Xiu sliced the roast duck into pieces and placed them in a thin pancake. He wrapped them with cucumber strips, garlic sprouts, and other sauces before eating them in one bite.
The roast duck was fat but not greasy, and the meat was not dry at all.
He had eaten the roast duck several times in his previous life, and the taste was deeply imprinted in Lu Xiu's mind. The roast duck that had transformed at this moment basically tasted the same as in his previous life.
"As expected of little friend Lu. You're so particular about eating duck.”Li Yuan said in surprise,
"But it smells so good. I wonder how it was roasted.”Li Er didn't eat duck often because it didn't taste good. However, just the smell of the golden roasted duck on the table was enough to make his index finger open.
Although they did not know how to eat it, with Lu Xiu's demonstration, Li Er and the others began to follow suit.
The hot flatbread was wrapped with golden and crispy duck meat, fresh garlic sprouts, cucumbers, and finally sweet bean sauce.
When they took a bite, the crispy skin of the roast duck meat and the fat but not greasy meat melted in their mouths.
The cucumbers, garlic sprouts, and sweet bean sauce neutralized the greasy taste of the roast duck. The taste was very good.
"It's delicious, but I don't think it's as good as yesterday's fish.”Li Yuan said.
"What is duck and what is tuna? The two ingredients can't be mixed together. I think the roast duck is very delicious. I can't just eat one kind of fish just because it's delicious.”Li Xiaogong smiled.
"Yeah, who would have thought that ducks could be so delicious?”The ingredients needed for the roast duck were not complicated. If the royal chef in the palace was given the recipe, the royal chef would be able to cook it.
"I just wanted to eat roast duck. I never thought about whether you guys liked it or not.”Lu Xiu said.
"Hehe, I'll eat whatever little friend Lu Xiu eats. I'm not picky.”Li Yuan lowered his head and did not speak. He was afraid that if he was a step slower, the two three-pound roast ducks on the table would be eaten by Li Xiaogong and the others.
