"Si Zi, go out and play!"
"No, I want to help my brother."
"I really don't need you. Just go out and wait for me to eat, okay?”
"Not good, big brother is so tired, persimmon has to help big brother…Ah!”
"Bang!"
"Crash!"
"Persimmons…can we go out and play?”
"Oh…okay."
Fortunately, the bowls and ladles were made of wood. It was not a big deal even if they were broken. Li Fei quickly sent this young lady out.
Then, he continued to cook.
Just now, the system gave him a mission.
"Ding! [Mission: Use pork to make Oil Doused Noodles!]”
" Mission Reward: Other than Reputation Points, if you gain more than 500 Reputation Points this time, you will be rewarded with additional skills: Master Chef!"
That's right, Li Fei was not proficient in cooking.
The world of the Great Tang was far from being as exaggerated and beautiful as he had imagined. It was really the kind of world where any random soy sauce shredded potato in modern times could make Li Er's eyes glow with envy.
Therefore, with his skills before he transmigrated, Li Fei could open a restaurant in the Great Tang.
"Oil Doused Noodles?"
Li Fei had already made up and was lying awake at the side.
Then, he looked at the pork on the chopping board.
Coincidentally, this was a piece of fat meat. Who knew what Da Zhuang was thinking, but he actually brought over such a big fat and small thin piece of pork.
What Li Fei didn't know was that the villagers, who used to barely eat good meat, had improved their lives a lot after they started raising pigs according to his method.
In the Tang Dynasty, where stewing and boiling were the main methods, the fat meat in a pot of stewed pork was more fragrant than the lean meat.
Of course, they didn't know the term 'streaky pork' yet.
But now, it was exactly what Li Fei needed.
Li Fei cut off the fat from the pork and put the lean meat aside.
Before the Great Tang, the ancients had already begun to use oil.
However, in the Tang Dynasty, pork was regarded as meat for the lower class, so the pork fat was naturally not much better.
Rich families used vegetable oil, which was the popular soybean oil.
However, in the Tang Dynasty, without any high-tech equipment, it was easy to make soybean oil, but it was difficult to preserve it.
As time went on, the soybean oil would have an aftertaste and color recovery, and there was a high possibility that it would go bad.
Therefore, the Oil Doused Noodles that Li Fei was going to make today was going to break the tradition of using oil in the Tang Empire. A new method of using animal fat and pork fat was going to be introduced!
He chopped off the fat and cut it into small cubes.
Li Fei set up a big pot and threw the small cubes into it.
As the temperature in the pot rose, the fat in the pot made a sizzling sound. Then, a layer of transparent grease appeared at the bottom of the pot.
The unique fragrance of animal fat made Li Fei's nose twitch. He praised,""This one smells better!"
His mother used to do this when he was young, especially when it was left after the oil was boiled…
"What's that smell? It smells so good!"
"It smells so good! What delicious food was the little doctor making?”
"Um…this…"
At this moment, two familiar voices suddenly came from the outer room, causing Li Fei to be stunned.
Li Fei's face darkened when he went out to take a look.
"What are you guys doing?"
Upon seeing Li Er and Zhangsun Wugou, Li Fei recalled the last meal. These two really ate a lot.
Especially Li Er, he was burping from eating!
Seeing that Li Fei's gaze was not right, Li Er quickly laughed and said,"Little doctor, I'm going out to discuss a business deal this time and happened to pass by your place, so I'll tell you a piece of good news!”
Good news?
Li Fei scratched his head in confusion and said,"What good news?"
Seeing Zhangsun Wugou playing with the persimmons at the side and the persimmons laughing happily, Li Fei's dislike for Li Er's seemingly freeloading lessened a little.
"Haha, so little doctor, didn't you say that the transportation here is inconvenient?”
"Good news is coming. I heard that the higher-ups have already made plans to build a road from here to the nearest official road. At that time, it will be convenient for you to travel.”
Li Er said with a smile. His face was full of pride, as if he was saying,"Praise me, praise me."
Li Fei did not suspect anything.
This person looked like he was either an official or a wealthy businessman. Since he was going out to discuss business, he was definitely a wealthy businessman.
However, this road construction was all handled by the government. What was a wealthy businessman like you so proud of?
"This matter…did you help?" Li Fei looked at Li Er and asked.
This person's mouth was really not honest. He thought so in his heart.
When Li Er saw Li Fei's expression, he knew that something was wrong. He quickly smiled and said,"No, little doctor, you might not know this, but in a few days, a diplomatic mission from the Western Regions will pass through here, so they have to repair the road.”
"I also have some business friends in Chang 'an. This is Old Sun, who is on good terms with me. I told him about the inconvenient transportation here, so Old Sun did me a favor and helped me.”
Zhangsun Wuji was shocked, but there was a smile on his face." I heard that the little doctor's medical skills are superb. Building a road is also a good thing for the people. It's a good deed…"
The two of them echoed each other, and Li Fei really believed their words.
"Alright, then you guys sit down first. Coincidentally, my rice is almost cooked. You guys came at the right time.”
Li Fei rolled his eyes and ran into the kitchen.
