After Zhao Xuanli's carriage left Piaoyun Pavilion and turned a corner, Zhao Xuanli, who was sleeping in the carriage, sat up instantly.
"Quick, go to the mansion at No. 5 Maplewood Street, quick!"
"Yes!" The driver shook the reins and immediately led Zhao Xuanli towards Maplewood Street! In less than two-quarters of an hour, the carriage arrived in front of a mansion. Zhao Xuanli hurriedly got out of the car, looked around and saw that he was not being followed, and then he dared to go up and knock on the door!
After a crisp sound, the door opened slightly and the people inside saw clearly that the person outside was Zhao Xuanli. Then they opened the door halfway and let Zhao Xuanli in!
Zhao Xuanli trotted all the way to the door of the front hall, threw off his sleeves and knelt on the ground.
"The villain meets the adults!"
"What brings you here?" A deep voice came from the room.
"The villain has already figured it out, so I'm here to report to the adults!"
"Say it quickly!"
"Yes!" Zhao Xuanli collected his thoughts.
"The villain is very strange. Zhao Xuanyi did not bring back some precious items when he went to Shandong, but he actually brought back some cabbage. After I had a drink with him today, he leaked something. This time he went to Shandong and found two kinds of gems. One is called Beauty Shame, this one is called Fo Guangcui!" After hearing this, the man inside the curtain couldn't help but frown.
"You mean, he was carrying other items privately in the vehicle he was transporting vegetables in?"
"It should be like this. Firstly, it can hide people's eyes, and secondly, it can avoid tax problems. Moreover, he also brought back a gem the size of a pigeon egg. It reflects red light when the sun shines on it. When the sun is blocked, it immediately turns blue. It's very beautiful! "Zhao Xuanli said excitedly.
"Yin Yang blood stone?" the man asked a little strangely.
"The adults are well-informed, and the little ones are impressed! Seeing how he showed off in front of me, I concluded that he must be transporting more than just cabbage!" After hearing this, the man fell silent.
"Yes! It's definitely not that simple, but it's not easy for us to reach out. They use soldiers and vehicles of the Tiens Legion. If we don't have a reasonable reason and want to investigate and seize Li Yukun's handle, it's not that simple. Ah!" Zhao Xuanli thought for a while and suddenly had an idea.
"Don't worry, sir. Are there not many reasons? Even the military movement supplies must be obtained from freight routes, and we are hoarding vegetables at this time. There is a quarter difference in time. There are too many loopholes!" And the man After hearing this, I still felt a little hesitant
"Li Yukun is an old fox. These jade stones are very hot! It's not convenient for us to reach out directly!" After hearing this, Zhao Xuanli's mind started to spin rapidly.
"I understand, my subordinates. It's better to let others handle this matter. If we catch Baoyu, we can stop it. If not, we can pretend not to know!" After hearing this, the man nodded with a smile.
"I'll leave this matter to you!"
"Yes!" It was another early morning. The sun came as promised, and its fiery light shone on the black earth. Every household also started a new day. As soon as Shen Wei walked out of the room, he saw someone standing at the door of the backyard. Wang Yunlong and Shen Wei walked over quickly.
Wang Yunlong smiled when he saw Shen Wei
"Brother Shen, you wake up!"
"Well! Are you busy so early?"
"That's right, someone from a carpenter's workshop sent a letter saying that the tools you ordered are ready, so I came to inform you!" Wang Yunlong said with a smile.
"Is that so? Okay, you go to the military camp, take four carriages to the workshop, and transport all the equipment to the military camp. I'll ask the adults to get up and go to the military camp! If the workshop wants money, you let them wait. , if the equipment is useful, we will naturally give you money!" Shen Wei said.
"Yes!" Wang Yunlong turned and left. Shen Wei came outside the main room and coughed lightly
"Young Master? Young Master, are you awake? This subordinate has something to report!" Shen Wei's voice woke up Zhao Xuanyi. After opening his eyes, he saw Zi Yuan, who was still naked in his arms. Zi Yuan was also awakened by Shen Wei. , the two looked at each other and smiled.
"You sleep a little longer and I'll go take a look!" Zhao Xuanyi said softly.
"Okay!" Zi Yuan took her arm back from Zhao Xuanyi's chest, turned over and continued to sleep! Zhao Xuanyi got up and put on a shirt, got out of bed and walked out of the room. He came to the door and opened it, and saw Shen Wei standing outside.
"What happened so early in the morning?"
"Young Master, the equipment you ordered has arrived and will be sent to the military camp shortly, so I came to tell you!"
"Oh? Okay! I'm just staring at this batch of utensils! In this way, I'm going to change my clothes, and we'll go to the military camp now. Whether my vegetables can make me money depends on these utensils. Let Wang Yunlong and Wang Yunchuan both Come with us!" Zhao Xuanyi said excitedly.
"Yes! I will arrange it now!" Shen Wei was also very excited. He didn't know what Zhao Xuanyi was going to do, but he had a feeling that something interesting would happen!
Zhao Xuanyi returned to the room, opened the bed curtain, and held Zi Yuan in his arms
"Get up!" Zi Yuan pushed Zhao Xuanyi away with her hand.
"You won't let me sleep at night, and you won't let me sleep during the day? I'm sleepy!" Zi Yuan coquettishly said.
"You can sleep. I'm going to the military camp to process the vegetables. Then they can be preserved for many years. Don't you want to see it?" After hearing this, Zi Yuan sat up instantly, her face very excited.
"I'm going!"
"Change my clothes!"
"Yes!" Zi Yuan said with a smile. When Zhao Xuanyi brought Zi Yuan, Shen Wei and others to the military camp, all the soldiers bowed and saluted when they saw Zhao Xuanyi. Even those with higher status than him had to salute when they met. This is a status that Li Hanyan cannot mess with!
Zhao Xuanyi didn't care. He led people to the weapon forging place. Seeing that Wang Yunlong had put the large square cage aside, Zhao Xuanyi dismounted and walked over to check. The outside was made of a whole piece of wood, and the middle was a bamboo board. Zhao Xuanyi I am very satisfied after seeing it!
"Wang Yunlong, Wang Yunchuan!" Zhao Xuanyi shouted loudly.
"Here!" The two brothers came over.
"Go to the military camp and select thirty trustworthy brothers to follow me. Remember, you must choose those who know the truth and have a strict mouth!" Zhao Xuanyi shouted.
"Yes!" The two of them immediately went to find someone! Zhao Xuanyi found an empty warehouse in the military camp. After walking in, he checked it carefully. It was not bad.
"Brother Shen, we have arranged for soldiers to stand guard and patrol outside. From now on, outsiders are not allowed to enter here. Anyone who violates this rule will be killed!"
"Yes!" Shen Wei shouted loudly.
"Bring me all the utensils, as well as charcoal and vegetables!" Zhao Xuanyi gave the order, and the two brothers Wang Yunlong and Wang Yunchuan started busy with thirty people!
Cabbage and radish each pulled a cart. Zhao Xuanyi looked at Wang Yunlong and the thirty people behind him.
"From now on you will work here, see clearly how I do it, and learn from it. This is what you will do from now on!"
"Yes!" everyone shouted! Zhao Xuanyi took a piece of cabbage and was about to start when Zi Yuan came over.
"Uncle, let me do it!" Zhao Xuanyi smiled
"Done!" Zhao Xuanyi gave the cabbage to Zi Yuan. First, cut off the root of the cabbage, then break it off leaf by leaf and wash it. After washing the radish, use a knife to cut it into back slices about one centimeter. Then take two oversized wooden boards and put the vegetables inside the wooden boards. After putting the board on the board, put stones on it to squeeze and dehydrate!
After an hour, remove the stone, take out the vegetables that have become as thin as paper, and then place them flatly in the steamer. Put some more squeezed vegetables in each layer of steamer, which can be stacked. Put down the ten-layer steamer. More than a dozen heads of cabbage and a dozen radishes!
Afterwards, these steamers filled with vegetables were placed on the burning charcoal fire. When everyone saw this, they still didn't understand why they did this?
Zhao Xuanyi was not in a hurry. He sat on the chair and drank tea leisurely. Looking at everything in front of him, Zhao Xuanyi felt very happy. A miracle was about to be born in his own hands!
In the capital, Sequoia came to the door of Piaoyun Pavilion again with a folding fan. When Tang Tianli saw Sequoia coming again, he smiled and strode towards Sequoia. A man more than two meters tall walked towards a small boy. Girl, this makes Sequoia a little scared!
"Why are you here again? Is there something wrong?" Tang Tianli asked with a smile. Sequoia took out a folding fan and placed it in front of Tang Tianli
"This is my house...?" Tang Tianli took it over directly and broke it with both hands [Crack, snap! 】A bamboo folding fan was instantly damaged by Tang Tianli
"Leave Piaoyun Pavilion, I will destroy whatever you give me in the future. Sister Ziyuan told me to go away!" Tang Tianli shouted loudly.
Sequoia was so frightened that she ran away in a hurry, thinking who are these people? Why so fierce? Tang Tianli grinned widely when he saw Sequoia leaving.
"Hmph, you want to take advantage of my young lady? I'll blind you!" After saying that, he walked back to the gate and stood guard with a serious look on his face!
After the steamer was placed on the charcoal fire, Zhao Xuanyi checked it every quarter of an hour. After two hours, Zhao Xuanyi ordered to take out the bottom steamer!
When the steamer was taken out, the dehydrated vegetables on the bottom layer had become dry and crispy, comparable to potato chips. Zhao Xuanyi picked it up and looked at it carefully. He was very excited. Finally, it was made. An ancient utensil. That’s how far it can go!
"Did you see it all? After taking off the bottom layer, add a new layer of steamer on top, and then take off the bottom layer after a quarter of an hour, add a layer on top, and so on, all the dried vegetables will be removed. I put it in a bag, don’t worry if it breaks, just don’t burn it, do you understand?” Zhao Xuanyi shouted.
"Got it!" everyone shouted. Ziyuan walked over and looked at the vegetables, which had no moisture at all. Are they wrinkled?
"This... seems to be able to be stored for a long time, but how to eat it?"
"Fool!" Zhao Xuanyi laughed, took a basin of water, picked up a few dry vegetable leaves and threw them in to soak.
Half an hour later, the vegetable leaves that had absorbed the water suddenly became swollen and plump. Zhao Xuanyi picked up the soaked vegetable leaves and placed them in front of Zi Yuan.
"Try it!" Zi Yuan was very happy when she saw such a magical scene. She took a piece of radish and took a bite. The sweet taste instantly filled her mouth. Although it cannot be compared with fresh vegetables, the sweetness of vegetables is still good. It can be eaten and can be stored for a long time, which makes Ziyuan very excited!
"How did you know?" Zi Yuan asked with a smile.
"Secrets! I know a lot more!" Zhao Xuanyi said with a smile. Shen Wei, Wang Yunlong and others also came over, picked up the vegetables and tasted them, and then they all showed surprised expressions!
"Sir, you are so awesome! This way, vegetables don't have to worry about rotting. You are really a genius!" Wang Yunlong said with a smile.
After Zhao Xuanyi heard this, his face suddenly turned cold.
"All of you here, listen to me. I have already told you how to make vegetables. From now on, you will only do this one thing. But if this method is leaked, it will be like leaking a secret. You, and all your relatives from the Nine Clans, will I will kill them all without leaving any one behind. What I want is loyal subordinates. If there is betrayal, I will kill them without mercy! Do you all hear me?"
"Pledge to be loyal to your Majesty to the death!" Everyone shouted loudly!
"Brother Shen, I will double the salary of the brothers who work here. Register all their family members with me. If this method is leaked, find out who leaked it and kill the nine tribes. If you don't find out who leaked it, kill them all." It's over!" Zhao Xuanyi shouted coldly.
"Yes!" Shen Wei shouted loudly. Since ancient times, there has never been a precedent for eating vegetables in military camps in winter. Zhao Xuanyi has created a miracle this time. If this method of cooking only vegetables spreads, it will leak military secrets and implicate others. All nine tribes are light-hearted, Shen Wei doesn’t dare to neglect them!
