Farmers' group pet: the blessings of powerful ministers are soft and deceitful

Chapter 138

In the past two days, Mr. Du Hongbo came to Zhaohe Town for inspection in the Futai of Changping Prefecture as usual.

Every year, he would choose some time to go to the counties below to see if the place is stable. After all, these are also related to his achievements. If the people below are not interested, he still has to keep an eye on them.

A few days ago, I stayed in Yong'an next door for a while, and only recently came to Zhaohe's side.

This place gave him the impression of mediocrity, everything was well-behaved, and there was nothing wrong with it, but it couldn't attract much attention either.

After all, before Du Hongbo came to Changping Prefecture to take office, he already had previous acquaintances, and he tried his best to make some achievements, but this place is still like stagnant water, and there is no movement at all.

So this time he came here, it was just a routine inspection, and he only stayed for two or three days before leaving.

On the first day, Mr. Zhang, the county magistrate of Showa, led Mr. Du on a tour for a week, and happened to see that the rice of the people had been planted.

Master Du boasted flatly: "It will enable the people to farm hard and live and work in peace and contentment. Thank you for your hard work, Master Zhang."

"Lord Du, you are being polite. This is a matter of humble duty." County Magistrate Zhang said respectfully.

"En." Master Du replied, and there was no more words after that.

Afterwards, County Magistrate Zhang led Master Du Hongbo back to the mansion to rest, and his servants prepared meals and snacks.

Jiang Ning also asked the carriage to pick it up one day in advance, and she lived in Zhang's residence for the past few days to entertain Mrs. Du.

Fortunately, there is a housekeeper who has arranged her board and lodging properly, so there is nothing to worry about.

The journey was tiring, and the food didn't need to be too greasy, so Jiang Ning didn't make those dim sum that needed to be baked, but made another glutinous rice dumpling.

This kind of dumpling is very easy to make. Knead the glutinous rice noodles and steam them directly. After steaming, you can put red bean paste stuffing, or some sweet and sour dried fruits, and then wrap them up. The outside is sticky and cooked. Glutinous rice flour will do.

It tastes soft and glutinous, very springy.

This time Du Hongbo brought his family's female relatives over. During the day he and the county magistrate went out to make inspections, and the female relatives were entertained by the wife of the Zhang family.

So when Du Hongbo came back, the female family members mentioned to him: "The snacks in the mansion are quite delicious, but I just came here today, so I can't eat much."

Du Hongbo was not interested in these things, he only listened to a few sentences and didn't pay attention to them.

On the second day, Mr. Zhang hosted a banquet for Mr. Du Hongbo and his family members in the mansion. The meals on this day were much richer than those on the first day.

At the banquet, there are not only honey grilled chicken, but also grilled ribs and various snacks.

Now those present are all dignified people, no matter how delicious the food is, they just look at it more implicitly and don't show it.

The same is true for the female relatives of Master Du's family, but it is obvious which dish their chopsticks pick up the most.

Obviously, these barbecues are deeply loved by them.

Only then did Du Hongbo turn his eyes slightly, and said: "Showa has started to make these kinds of food now? If it is done well, we can also go to Zhoucheng to make a name for ourselves."

Mr. Zhang was flattered. What Mr. Du meant was that if you want to make something with local characteristics, you can start with the food.

At that time, the reputation of Showa grilled chicken and Showa grilled ribs will spread.

Although meager, it can be regarded as a small achievement.

It's just that this is difficult to do. The business in Changping Prefecture cannot be entered by Showa's side.

However, since Master Du mentioned it, Master Zhang will also look back and think about it to see what can be done.
