"Fifty or sixty a day is not a lot.
The peddler sighed, "The general said that my family is poor, my ugly wife is weak and sick, and my young son is only four or five years old, and I have sold a few acres of land in my family. ” Liuzan moved his mouth, and wanted to say why didn't you become a soldier in the tuntian, and you could get acres of land after a few months of training every year.
"The old man's hot and sour noodle soup is really delicious, I don't know how to boil it" "Since it is the soup that my wife has stewed for several hours raising chickens, I use dough sheets to accompany it."
Zhuge Liang bowed slightly, and pointed to a house on the left side of the county government not far away, walking out of twenty or thirty steps, "Mianzhu Academy is about to be built here, which belongs to the Ministry of Rites under the rule of Wu Jiangdong, and it is a county school, so why don't the elders set up stalls outside this door in the future." ” The old man looked puzzled, "The house here was originally the place where the previous Mianzhuguan town guard general lived, and no one passed by on weekdays, how could anyone come to eat this noodle soup in that place?"
Zhuge Liang smiled, "In a few days, a scribe will be sent to serve here, with the well-known filial piety under the rule of Wu Jiangdong, that is, a person with university knowledge as the county school teaching, your young son is four or five years old, and can also be enlightened, I can give the elder a school shackle, I don't know what the elder thinks" "Poof", speaking of which, no matter how stupid the hawker is, he knows that he has indeed met a noble person this time, so he immediately bowed down and bowed to Zhuge Liang, "The general's kindness, the old man can't repay it, I am willing to be a cow and a horse, and repay the general." ” "This is the left army division of my Wu Wangfu, Mr.
Kongming of Yizhou Thorn History."
Liuzan added.
The old man's face changed slightly, "I never thought it was a stab in front of him, please forgive the old man for being rude and sloppy." ” "Elderly, please get up."
Zhuge Liang stretched out his hand to help him up, "You set up a stall outside the gate of this academy, and I will teach you the method of sandwiching meat in the steamed bun" Speaking of this, he paused, and a little smile appeared on his face, "Okay, I will also give you the method of filling the soup dumplings that the former lord gave me." ” "How does this work?"
The old man's heart was full of shock, the lord can let the lord in front of him be the one who is famous all over the world, and is the emperor Liu Qi, the king of Wu today "The lord often says, it is better to give people fish than to teach people to fish, the people of the world, all are the people of the Han family, should be treated equally, except for salt, iron, money, soldiers and other important things in the court can not be granted, the rest of the methods that can improve your livelihood should be granted."
The old man's face was full of red light when he heard this, and he immediately stood up numbly, he returned to the pot, and after a short time, he walked to the front with a bowl of stewed meat, "Thorn Shi, this general, if you don't dislike it, please try the old man's craftsmanship." ” "Good."
Zhuge Liang did not refuse, this old man was repaying his kindness, if he refused at this moment, he would abandon the last trace of dignity in his heart.
After a while, Zhuge Liang took the silk handkerchief in Ma Yan's hand and wiped the corners of his mouth a few times, and walked to the side of the boiler, "Elder, let me teach you the method of filling soup dumplings." ” "Stick to your wishes, dare not invite you."
The old man immediately got out of the way and let Zhuge Liang roll out the dough on the board.
Dozens of sergeants have been watching, and the captives walking on both sides of the street are also looking at this place with curious faces, and in the house on the second floor opposite, a child of two or three years old is lying on the edge of the windowsill, pointing down, "steamed buns" He looks a little dark and thin, and he looks distressing.
Zhuge Liang smiled at him, stretched out his hand and wiped it on his face, and two clouds of ash fell on his cheeks.
Liuzan saw it in his eyes, and felt for a while that his own military division also had such a quiet side.
Not long after, when Zhuge Liang put seven or eight buns with small flowers pinched out by hand on the board, he beckoned, and immediately a sergeant presented the wooden steamer in the car to the front.
"What is this" The old man looked full of surprise, and watched Zhuge Liang put the buns in it one by one, and then brought them to the boiler and put them away, and then ordered the sergeant to put down the hourglass and calculate the hours.
Zhuge Liang clapped his hands and pointed to the bamboo steamer, "This thing is called a steamer, when Gaozu was in the past, the Marquis of Huaiyin led the army to camp in the field, in order to avoid the enemy's reconnaissance and cooking smoke, and expose the location of his own military camp, he put bamboo chips on the fire and cooked rice with steam. ” "This thing is used in the Jiangdong army for only a year, it is made by King Wu himself, of course, when promoting, it still relies on the craftsmen from all over Jiangdong, and now the cost of the workshop must be one or two hundred Wen, I will order the craftsman workshop in Mianzhuguan as soon as possible to create this thing, and then the old Han Ru can come to ask for one."
After waiting for a quarter of an hour, Zhuge Liang glanced at the military man beside him, who strode forward and brought the steamer to the table and put it away, "This thing should be fermented and then steamed before it tastes delicious, but today the time is limited, and the elder will try one." ” The old man curiously took one and bit it in his mouth, and immediately the hot oil wrapped in it burst into his mouth.
"This thing is very hot to the mouth, but it is so greasy, I am afraid that I can not eat meat for a day."
The old man's eyes lit up, and he swallowed one in three or five times, then swallowed his saliva, glanced at the remaining buns in the steamer, and under Zhuge Liang's signal, he picked up the steamer, and even couldn't help himself from eating, but handed it to Liuzan, Ma Jian and others on his side.
Zhuge Liang smiled and sighed in his heart, "It's really a kind-hearted person." ” Leaving, the old man knelt on the ground and thanked him for his kindness, he had never eaten such delicious noodles, even the steamed buns sold on the street were not as good, he knew the preciousness of this steamer, and also knew that one or two hundred wen, sooner or later it would be bought by those merchants who had shops in the city, he hurriedly closed the stall and went home, discussed with his wife, and prepared to learn this method as soon as possible.
At that time, you can also buy a store to seize the opportunity and be invincible.
As for the signboard of this stall, he glanced at the three words of soup dumplings left by the water stains on the stall, and prepared to fill in the two words in front, "Zhuge ".
At the same time, led the army into Guanghan County, all the way straight in, the news of the defeat of Duji Town guarding Mianzhu Pass, there was no Zhou Yu reinforcements in the north to return, the defenders in these cities were only hundreds, the thieves were still available, and the enemy outside the city was cowardly, and after the army was killed outside the city, the city immediately surrendered.
At dusk on the second day, Gan Ning and Huang Zhong marched one after the other to the vicinity of Baishui Pass.
"Order me to capture Yinping and prevent reinforcements from Wudu."
Gan Ning's eyebrows furrowed slightly, he thought that he was a pioneer general, but he never thought that he would have other tasks.
As for Huang Zhong, he laughed, he led the army to attack Baishui Pass, and now there are only one or two thousand old, weak, sick and disabled people in Baishui Pass
