"County Magistrate Gao, I also like to study food. I wonder if you have ever tasted this food."
As Meng Shaoyuan spoke, he took out something from his pocket. It was dark and strange.
"Ah, I didn't expect that Commander Zhu is also a gourmet. I'm here to check it out."
Gao Yushan stared at this thing for a long time and couldn't guess what it was:
"This one looks like a Wowotou?"
Immediately, he slapped his head and said: "It's ridiculous, it's ridiculous, I made a mistake. How could the sir eat the steamed buns?"
"You're right, it's really Wo Wo Tou." Unexpectedly, Meng Shaoyuan said this.
"Ah, is it really a wowotou?" Gao Yushan was startled, and then explained himself: "Sir, you are really amazing. You can often see the truth in the most ordinary food. For example, if an ordinary piece of tofu can be cooked well, then That’s what’s truly amazing!”
"It's really not easy to make this steamed bun." Meng Shaoyuan said seriously: "It takes more than sixty miles to get the main ingredients required. After getting it back, add it with carefully prepared wild vegetables and put it together. , put it on the steamer and steam it. When you eat it, the special ingredients are paired with healthy and delicious wild vegetables, and your mouth is full of fragrance. "
So magical?
All the officials in the Wuhe County Government stared at the nest.
"Brother, I just came to your county, and I feel really ashamed to be entertained by you. Therefore, I made a few of these steamed buns for you to taste on the way."
As soon as Meng Shaoyuan finished speaking, Gao Yushan immediately cheered up: "That's the commissioner's wrong love. It must be delicious. I can't wait."
"No rush, no rush." Meng Shaoyuan smiled: "Captain Li Wei, take out the cornbread I have prepared for you all."
"yes!"
Li Zhifeng took out a few steamed buns from his bag.
There is only one official in Wuhe County to accompany the wine, and no one will be bullied.
"please!"
Meng Shaoyuan waved one by one.
The officials each took a bite.
what?
What is this?
This thing is as unpalatable as it gets. When you eat it, it has a strange taste in your mouth.
like? Is it the smell of earth?
An official couldn't help but spit it out. Then he realized that this was a gift from the superior. It was really unseemly to spit it out. He hurriedly stuffed the spitted out Guiba Guiba into his mouth again, not forgetting to explain: "I coughed and spit it out. I'm sorry, I'm sorry."
The problem is, I put it in my mouth, but there is really no way to swallow it.
Gao Yushan resisted and swallowed the "delicious food" in his mouth with a glass of wine. He rolled his eyes when he swallowed, but he did not forget to say: "Excellent, excellent."
Do you feel guilty for saying this?
The county magistrate ate it, and everyone else gritted their teeth and swallowed it with all their might.
His mouth was also saying "Excellent, excellent."
"This commissioner's food must be good." When Meng Shaoyuan said this, he said "Hey": "Since it is very good, please continue to eat."
At this time, Gao Yushan only felt uncomfortable with the distension in his stomach, and reluctantly said: "This stuff is excellent, but no matter how good it is, don't eat too much. Eating too much will hurt your stomach."
Not only him, but also the officials all felt bloated and sad.
Meng Shaoyuan's face suddenly darkened: "Gao Yushan, are you not giving me face?"
"Ah? Never dare, never dare!"
"Don't you dare? I think you are very brave." Meng Shaoyuan sneered and said: "This commissioner traveled sixty miles back and forth to cook it just for you, but you refuse to eat every one of it? Forget it, let you go."
Officials like Gao Yushan were relieved.
Although it would not be a great honor to the commissioner, at least he no longer had to eat such unpalatable food.
But Meng Shaoyuan said slowly: "This commissioner came to Henan this time on the order of the chairman of the committee."
With a "swish" sound, everyone stood up.
"Okay, take a seat." Meng Shaoyuan said calmly: "The Chairman said that Henan's government affairs are sparse and officials are lazy, and it is time to rectify it. You are the Chairman's order."
With a "swish" sound, everyone stood up again.
"Sit, sit." Meng Shaoyuan said politely: "There are some officials whose virtues are not worthy of their positions. I think this official has come to an end. For example, you, County Magistrate Gao. If you don't give me face, I will It seems that your job as county magistrate has come to an end, so go home and concentrate on being a gourmet."
ah?
Gao Yushan was stunned.
Isn't this too blatant?
Are you going to lose your official position just because you don't eat your unpalatable food?
But Gao Yushan had no choice.
Who allowed himself to be just a small county magistrate, while the other party was an imperial envoy?
Gao Yushan could still tell what was light and what was serious. He would never lose his official position just for a bite to eat.
Even if what's in front of him is poison, he still has to eat it!
Gao Yushan was heartbroken, so he picked up the steamed buns and stuffed them into his mouth. No matter how bad the taste was, he chewed a few mouthfuls and swallowed them all.
It almost made him choke and almost roll his eyes.
After the county magistrate did this, all the officials below him were in danger and did not want to be dismissed from their posts. They all imitated Gao Yushan's example and showed their ability to take bribes and bend the law, leaving no one without a single scumbag.
This time, it really cost them their lives.
This is a steamed bun made with Guanyin soil. After eating even a little bit, your stomach becomes unbearably bloated.
Eat it whole?
Of course, there is no need to say more about how swollen the belly is. Anyway, in a month and a half, they can't even think about solving the physiological problem.
"Okay, they are all good officials!" Meng Shaoyuan gave a thumbs up and said with satisfaction: "Come on, everyone eat, eat, don't waste such a table of good food!"
However, officials like Gao Yushan seemed to have a heavy stone in their stomachs at this time. They were so uncomfortable that they could not eat anymore.
Some can't even sit still.
Meng Shaoyuan ignored them and ate a mouthful of six-year-old duck meat, a mouthful of delicious chicken soup, and another mouthful of wine, still praising:
"County Magistrate Gao is a gourmet. I have never tasted these good things when I was in Shanghai."
Gao Yushan was restless and speechless.
What he wants to do most now is to go back quickly and find a way to get the contents out of his stomach.
These dog officials!
Meng Shaoyuan had a smile on his face, but he had already cursed in his stomach.
The disaster in Henan was so serious that people were selling their children and daughters to survive, but a small county magistrate was extravagant and wasteful to this extent.
Isn't it necessary to use the old hen soup just to let the vegetables pass through the water?
Damn it, luxury and corruption have reached this level?
Meng Shaoyuan also felt strange.
Gao Yushan is just a small county magistrate, how can he be so rich?
Where did he get all that money?
Gao Yushan and the others probably didn't guess that feeding them Guanyin soil was just the lightest punishment.
Their fate had actually been arranged while the "Commissioner Blessing" was eating and drinking!
