In the end, shopkeeper Cai didn't dare to hide anything. He wrote down everything he met today and asked him to release the carrier pigeon he brought to Chang'an.
When they were in Shu, the rumors they heard about Tang Ping were mostly from merchants and the Li family.
In the eyes of the Shu merchants, the Li family was a complete Tang Chui.
But everyone also understood that after all, Li Bai, the eldest son of the Li family, became a disciple of Tang Ping.
If you don't give Tang Ping a better blow, how can he show his majesty as the eldest son of the Li family?
Therefore, in Shu, due to the relative lack of information, everyone felt that Tang Ping's deeds were mostly blown out.
This is also human nature, just like if you have a relative who brags about how awesome his friend is every day, you can only listen to it for fun and may not take it seriously.
But this time when I came to Chang'an and walked to Shanghe Village in person, Shopkeeper Cai realized that he was wrong.
Not only was he wrong, but his cousin Shopkeeper An and the Shu merchants in Shu were also wrong.
Tang Ping would probably be even more terrifying than the one passed down by the Li family...
Little did he know that Tang Ping, who was already regarded as a big terror, would be guiding Xiao Luo.
"Yes, these soaked beans have to be mouthed, which is to break the shell where the sprouts are, and then they will become crispy when fried."
"Then I used alum last night and ran it for about ten hours. It can't be soaked for too long."
He looked at the temperature of the oil and nodded: "It's time to put it in the pot, be careful not to burn it!"
"Don't worry, sir, this won't be a problem for me!" Xiao Luo smiled sweetly, put the processed beans into a large colander, and put them directly into the oil.
This kitchen is her domain, and she is already familiar with all the kitchen utensils.
She had actually soaked the soaked beans with clean silk cloth, so after adding oil, only small bubbles of oil would roll up, but they would not explode.
After picking it up, control the oil, and then fry it again. Just by the sound of the beans hitting the colander, Xiao Luo knew that the beans were already crispy.
Then mix in the sweet sauce, wait for it to cool, then mix in salt, spices and other auxiliary ingredients, and finally add icing made of white sugar and caramel.
Li Bai wanted to reach out, but Tang Ping slapped his little paw back.
"This icing is over 100 degrees Celsius, why are you panicking?"
He talks about Li Bai, but his eyes

Never left those beans for a moment.
Finally, when it was almost cold, Tang Ping picked up one and threw it into his mouth.
"Well, it tastes like this. It's crispy, sweet, spicy and salty. Do you think it's the same as the one in our store? No, is it better than the strange-flavored beans in our store?"
Li Bai directly grabbed a handful and threw one to Xiaopang. Xiaopang was not afraid of being cold now. Anyway, he ate it after giving it to him. He took a few bites, and then he was numbed by the pepper inside and sneezed twice.
Everyone else praised Xiao Luo's craftsmanship and made the little girl happy.
"How is it? Have you learned it?" Li Bai asked his cook while eating.
Of course they can eat these strange-flavored beans in the store at any time. Who knows how many bags they brought home this time. The old man of the Li family, who is also Li Bai's grandfather, really likes the taste.
So Li Bai asked Tang Ping to teach his family how to make it, so that he would have an extra snack in the future.
"The elderly can eat some of this every day. Beans are a good thing. Remember to leave the skin when cooking. The dietary fiber of the bean skin is reduced... Anyway, eating it is beneficial. As long as you don't Just eat too much at one time, and don’t eat it with snails!”
Asking the cook at home to try it himself, Li Bai sent all the remaining fried strange-flavored beans to the old man.
"Xiao Bai has become a lot more sensible following Mr. Pei and Brother Tang!" Li Ke sighed as he looked at Li Bai's back.
"Haha, this is his nature, I didn't teach him this!" Tang Ping said that he did not dare to take credit.
Li Ke didn't say anything more on this matter, and just asked: "Brother Tang, are you still waiting for those salt merchants to come to your door?"
"Well, some people won't give up until the end, so I'll give them some time. I heard that there is a Sichuan salt merchant surnamed Cai in Chang'an who has been active recently."
The salt merchants in Shu could find ways to exchange news with Chang'an, so how could Tang Ping not have news from Chang'an?
Ever since the man surnamed Cai went to the Craftsmen Association to find a craftsman for building a salt well drill, he had actually been targeted by the Secret Intelligence Service, and had even been investigated, but he didn't know it.
Otherwise, the man in black who stopped him in Shanghe Village that day was from the Secret Service. How could he be let in so easily?
Tang Ping is still confident about keeping secrets. After all, shopkeeper Cai is not the first one to want to get this secret.

something people.
Before him, countless efforts were made by neighboring countries to obtain the new technologies of the Tang Dynasty through various methods, but all failed.
"Your surname is Cai? That's the cousin I told you about Shopkeeper An, the largest salt merchant in Shu." Li Ke nodded: "It seems that there should be news soon."
Sure enough, after Tang Ping spent a few days in Li Bai's hometown touring the mountains and rivers, he heard that a salt merchant from Sichuan was asking for an audience.
Tang Ping naturally agreed to meet them, but he did not choose to meet them at Li Bai's house. Instead, he waited in the camp where Xuan Jiaqi was stationed.
"We want to ask to see Duke Ping!"
A group of Shu merchants went to Li Ke's house first. Li Ke showed the way and explained that Tang Ping was here and that if he wanted to see someone, he should come and see him by himself. He couldn't help.
Li Ke's attitude was as expected and not surprising, so a group of Shu salt merchants arrived outside the camp.
"Want to see Duke Ping?"
The camp gate of the camp opened, and what came out was the Xuanjia Cavalry, all in black armor.
Just beating the horse and standing there put a lot of pressure on a group of Shu merchants.
Sure enough, Shopkeeper Cai's letter was right. Tang Ping is definitely more powerful than everyone thought.
Everyone had only heard about this Black Armor Cavalry, but they didn't expect to see it today.
"Who are you?" It was Xiang Long who came out to ask. This was a question that he asked knowingly. What he wanted was to suppress the other party's power.
Of course, he succeeded.
Even Old Man An, who was usually the most indifferent, was a little nervous now.
"We are salt merchants in Sichuan. I heard that Duke Ping came to Sichuan to build salt wells. I wanted to see if there is a place where we can work."
"Salt merchant?" Xiang Long nodded: "Okay, let three people come in."
"Why are only three allowed in?" Mr. Zhu muttered. There are so many salt merchants here, but only three are allowed in. What will happen to the others? He doesn't trust others to represent him.
"Ha!" Xiang Long sneered, his expression invisible in the black armor on his face, but everyone could feel the cold light in his exposed eyes: "Here, do you want to go in?"
Just such a word without any emotion made Mr. Zhu tremble and shake his head repeatedly.
