Xie Baoqing agreed to Song An's conditions without hesitation.
"Second Head's arrangement is reasonable, we will do as you say.”
"From today onwards, the kitchen of the Black Cloud Stronghold will be handed over to your people.”
Only then did Song An give him a fist salute.
"Thank you, Chief!"
"Hey, Brother Song, why are you being so polite? We're all family!"
Xie Baoqing was especially affectionate to him, and Song An only smiled.
Family?
After these two days, the people in this mountain stronghold would be his family.
After receiving the news, the cooks took over the kitchen on the same day and bought all the lunch.
It had to be said that the independent regiment's people were specially assigned to cook. Compared to the people the bandits randomly picked out to cook, not only did they clean up the food, but even the taste was rare for the bandits to taste.
After a meal, everyone let down their guard against the cooks.
"The people that the Second Head brought are really good! This meal is almost as good as the food at my house!”
"Bullshit! He's from the Eighth Route Army's cooking squad. Your family can't even compare to him when it comes to pickled vegetables!”
"This is the first time I know that the food of the Eighth Route Army is not bad! Who said that the 8th Route Army was a useless army?”
"Why? Do you want to join the Eighth Route Army after researching this?”
"F * ck off! I'm living a good life here. I'm not going to suffer!”
Many bandits were discussing animatedly, their words full of praise for the cooking skills of the cooks.
When Song An heard this, he couldn't help but throw a look of praise over.
Alright, this group of people did not let him waste his effort. His repeated exhortations over the past two days were not in vain.
With the foundation of this lunch, in the afternoon, the people of the Black Cloud Stronghold did not suspect anything when the cooks said that they wanted to take a walk on the mountain and pick some wild vegetables and mushrooms.
There were even people who were curious and wanted to go with them.
"What's a mushroom? Can it be eaten?"
"I haven't seen it either…"
"They are from the Eighth Route Army, so it's normal for them to be knowledgeable!”
The people from the kitchen were anxious to complete Song An's mission. It was rare for them to put down their airs and take the initiative to explain to the bandits.
"When it rains on the mountain, there are small mushrooms all over the ground. When you pick them back and stir-fry them, they are even more tender than meat!”
Everyone heard another round of discussion. When Song An saw this scene, he said to Xie Baoqing,"Chief, since it's prepared for the people of our village, why don't you let the kitchen people bring a few people over?”
"Firstly, I can help out. Secondly, my brothers don't even know the way. Don't kill me just to pick some wild vegetables!”
Song An said in a joking tone, and Xie Baoqing didn't have any objections. He agreed immediately.
"That's right. Then the few of you can follow. Don't just play on the way. Protect our new brothers!”
Xie Baoqing emphasized the word 'protect'.
However, Song An and the others did not react at all.
Xie Baoqing's intention was to let everyone pay attention to their movements.
However, these people from the Black Cloud Stronghold did not even know about mushrooms. How could they know what poisonous mushrooms were?
Therefore, Song An was not flustered at all.
Xie Baoqing only turned to look at Song An after the group of people had left.
"I didn't expect that the people under Brother Song are also talented. None of our brothers in the Black Cloud Stronghold are dissatisfied with this food.”
Song An also smiled." Chief, you flatter me. However, other than cooking, we don't have any other skills. We've made a fool of ourselves."”
Xie Baoqing didn't care about this and waved his hands.
"Brother Song is too humble! In the future, if you need any ingredients, be it meat or vegetables, just let the kitchen people find the brothers in the village!”
Song An nodded." Then I'll thank you on behalf of the brothers in the kitchen!”
On the other side, ever since the cooks left the village, they did not pay attention to the bandits following them. They were focused on finding mushrooms.
The few of them acted as if they did not see the various probing gazes around them.
Not long after, the cooks found a few baskets full of mushrooms.
Of course, most of the mushrooms were poisonous…
This was the first time the bandits of the Black Cloud Stronghold noticed such a thing. They could not help but start to get close to the people from the kitchen.
"Hey, brother, is this what you guys eat?”
"This thing is colorful. Other than looking good, what can it do?”
"Yes, it doesn't look very delicious.”
The people from the kitchen secretly exchanged glances and casually said a few words before bringing the bandits back to the Black Cloud Stronghold.
Originally, Song An planned to wait for another night before taking action.
However, he did not expect that the cooks would find him before dinner that afternoon.
Looking at the half pot of croton in the kitchen and the few baskets of poisonous mushrooms on the ground, Song An made a prompt decision and immediately changed his plan.
"Tonight, use all these things!”
Since Xie Baoqing was not too strict with him on the surface and they were not on guard against the kitchen, the sooner they made their move, the better!
