Space Escape: Raising Big Guys with Hundreds of Billions of Materials

Chapter 666 668. Special Dishes

Gu Wenheng fell into a busy situation. Although this place is also close to the border, there are only a few small countries on the side. On weekdays, he dare not take a step beyond the thunder pond. There are guards here, but it is relatively easy.

But the people here really depend on the sky for food.

Before they came, the grain had already been collected in the warehouse, and because of the climate, the land had already been turned over and the vegetables of the season had been planted.

"My lord, because we are located on a hill, the land in the hands of the common people is limited. These are the taxes paid this year, and there is no time to pay them."

Gu Wenheng looked at the tax book submitted by his subordinates, "Why are you still owed?"

Seeing that the expenses and income can't be balanced, it's too child's play.

Wu Haicong said, "My lord, last year was a bad year, plus the destruction of wild animals on the mountain.

Many places will not be able to collect taxes this year.

This is also our only problem at present. If we don't solve it quickly, we will not be able to pay the job. "

Gu Wenheng put the ledger on the table, "What about previous years? How did you deal with such situations in the past?"

Wu Haicong faltered a bit when he spoke, "It's all enforced, and if you can't pay it, you can use the land to pay for it.

But there is nothing we can do. Even if we want to relax the rules set by the above, we have no ability to bear them.

Over the years, we have already owed a large amount of money, and the higher-ups have already spoken before. If we owe more this year, we should be held accountable. "

Gu Wenheng raised his eyebrows, "Including me?"

Wu Haicong, "This official is unknown.

This year has come to the day of tax payment, but the tax collected is not yet half.

My lord, if the missing part of Lord Liu can be recovered, then most of the previous debts can be repaid. "

Gu Wenheng took a deep breath and tried his best to hold back his temper, "Why didn't Shangfeng pursue it before? Can the tax still be postponed?"

He even felt that he was deliberately targeted. In the past, he was not so coercive and soft, but when he took over, his attitude became tough.

"I don't know, I don't know. It's just that the time limit for us is running out. What do you say, my lord?"

Gu Wenheng spread his hands, "I haven't even figured out the bottom line here, and you want me to bear the old debts from before, which makes no sense whatsoever.

I will submit a memorial to this matter. If I really have to be responsible, then everyone is the same. "

He really treats himself like a soft persimmon, although he is crushed to death by a senior official, but he is not so easy to bully.

It is obvious that this statement is aimed at himself now, and Gu Wenheng does not mind expressing his attitude through Wu Haicong.

Wu Haicong, "My lord, our annual appraisal is in the hands of others..."

Gu Wenheng raised his hand to stop him from going on and said, "The Holy Majesty has summoned this official before he left, and he has long been dissatisfied with the taxation of this place over the years. Now, I am not afraid of them poking it out, but I am afraid that they will stand still.

You just collect taxes according to the real records, and remember to make statistics by the way, why there is such a situation that cannot be paid. "

It was such a big mess that Gu Wenheng felt a little headache.

There were problems in front of him, and he had to solve them.

Jin Qianqian arranged the back yard, and the Gu family who came with them also arranged to live in the front yard.

Only then did he take his two children and began to get acquainted with the county where he would live in the future.

"Mother, I like this place." Gu Benluo looked at the bright colors on the street, "The people here wear beautiful clothes.

You like a lot of colors, and it’s not like we wear layers after layers, so you can’t walk. "

Jin Qianqian also liked the climate here, so she teased him, "But there is no heating pad here, and you have to cover yourself with a thick quilt at night, will you get used to it?"

Gu Benluo looked around curiously, and had to deal with his mother, "Mother, it was just a moment of discomfort to cover the thick quilt. I fell asleep within a short time. When I woke up, it was already dawn. For me , the difference is really not that big.”

Jin Qianqian, "..." It makes sense. When I wake up, it will be dawn. There is really no need to worry about this problem. I am really old, and no child can take it easy.

"There seems to be a restaurant in front, let's go and see what food is available here?" Gu Benluo thought of coming all the way, Jin Qianqian likes to take them to eat local specialties, pointing to the small restaurant not far away and suggested.

Jin Qianqian rubbed his stomach, wanting to tell Gu Benluo, son, we just left the house with a full meal, and we really can't fill our stomachs.

Gu Benluo was in high spirits, and dragged her to lead the way.

Seeing the unfamiliar faces and the different clothes on their bodies, passers-by on the side of the road immediately guessed their identities and quietly moved out of the way.

"Madam, please come inside." The shop waiter spoke the local dialect. Although Jin Qianqian and the others didn't understand it, they probably guessed it.

"What special dishes do you have here?" Gu Benluo looked for the menu in the lobby, but found that there was no such thing on the wall, so he simply asked the waiter standing beside him.

The waiter in the shop blushed suddenly, and he didn't know what to say.

At this time, a middle-aged man ran in from the backyard and said in official Mandarin, "This boy can't speak, and he offended the nobleman.

I don't know what do you need? "

Jin Qianqian, "It's okay, we're new to your place, so I don't know what special food is available here, and I wonder if the shopkeeper can introduce one or two?"

The middle-aged man pulled the shop waiter behind him, and said with a smile, "We are just a small shop on the street, and we only make a few stir-fries that everyone likes. If you don't mind, I can take you to the back kitchen to introduce some fan."

Jin Qianqian, "Don't you all have names of dishes here?"

The shopkeeper has obviously encountered many such situations, and he explained calmly, "For guests from other places, we usually take them to see the real thing.

Otherwise, it will be a pity if you are not used to eating it, and it will be a pity to waste it. "

An ominous premonition rose in Jin Qianqian's heart, but seeing Gu Benluo's curious expression, he could only bite the bullet and agree.

"Then trouble the shopkeeper to lead the way."

The shopkeeper turned sideways and carefully led them to the back kitchen.

"The chefs here are best at these. This salt and pepper bee pupa is also the most popular. If you are not suitable for our dishes, you can start with this."

Following the shopkeeper's guidance, the mother and son saw a huge beehive densely packed with bee pupae.

Jin Qianqian instantly got goosebumps and turned her eyes away.

This damn intensive disorder made her extremely uncomfortable.

As soon as she turned her head, she saw something again, a dense plate of locusts, if she hadn't stabilized her posture, she would have wanted to scream.
