The Heroes of Gulong: Great Chefs from Past to Present

Chapter 477: The Ancient Difficulties of the Jianghu

On the Yangtze River, fishermen sing loudly. Although winter is approaching, it is as prosperous as spring.

Li Chaofeng works in a ship, and he has countless plans to make.

Listening to the report from the Shenlong Secret Guard behind him, Li Chaofeng's eyes became filled with endless coldness.

The Canglong suppressed the Seven Seas, and Chiwen Yunconglong was sent by him to take charge, while Balong and Chilong both went out.

With the Shenlong cannon improved by Li Chaofeng, Yun Conglong's underwater kung fu was also personally taught by Li Chaofeng.

Even if there is only one iron ship, it is enough to quell the conflict in the seven seas.

The old man was already in semi-retirement at this time, and he had no objection to Li Chaofeng's seizure of all the channels of the Sun Mansion.

The Shenlong Gang expanded its influence to the south, but still needed the support of local tyrants. The old people who followed the old man not only did not suffer any loss, but each of them obtained an inheritance that could be passed down to the family.

I don’t know where Li Chaofeng got his ability from, but when he arrives at a place, he can just walk around twice and come up with something good.

Not to mention winemaking, there are also mountain breeding, fungus cultivation on rotten wood, top-quality tea trees, and fruit and vegetable planting.

The most important thing is that Li Chaofeng can give away all the recipes and condiments in Shuiyunjian to others.

Li Chaofeng did not suffer any loss either. After several exchanges of interests, the price of grain was as high as the Yangtze River and was firmly controlled by the Shenlong Gang.

The life and death of major grain producers in various places are also directly controlled by Li Chaofeng.

Li Chaofeng saw it and naturally remembered that there was nowhere to escape.

With the opening of Shenlong Medical Clinic near various aristocratic families, a lot of old guys will also feel satisfied.

Old guys are all afraid of death, but the Shenlong Medical Clinic is an existence that can control life and death.

Who would dare to be dissatisfied? Not to mention that Li Chaofeng's magic knife is ruthless, the dragon son who is in charge of the Shenlong Medical Clinic has the title of Jiaozi.

The abolition of slavery was also followed up, but apart from asking those old guys to change the slaves' death indentures into living indentures and giving the slaves the power to redeem themselves freely, Li Chaofeng did not do much.

They neither forced the wealthy and powerful families to dismiss their slaves directly, nor did they pursue past cases of forcing people to become concubines.

Since Li Chaofeng didn't do anything too extreme, why should Sun Yubo make things more difficult for him?

Sun Yubo is already old, and Sun Die is the only one of his children still alive.

Killing for a person's status doesn't benefit you in any way, so why bother?

All matters of the Sun Mansion were handed over to Sun Die and Meng Xinghun to handle. The old man enjoyed playing with his grandchildren every day and was quite happy.

The Shenlong Gang has entered a period of rapid expansion, and this is also the time when Li Chaofeng most desires stability.

Li Chaofeng really wanted to replicate what Changjiang had done, but he also knew that governing a big country is like cooking a small fish.

There were hundreds of slaves in a large mansion, and industrial plants that could absorb a large population were not built. Directly abolishing slavery would only result in the entire South being filled with refugees.

However, the tube-shaped buildings that allow people to live in high density have not yet been spread all over the place.

A large number of slaves were freed at this time, without means of production or a place to live, and then they lost their "jobs", which was a real disaster.

Countless things are happening in front of Li Chaofeng, but the Western Region Demon Cult is getting restless.

Looking at the Shenlong Secret Guard in front of him, Li Chaofeng thought for a long time, put down the fishing rod, stood up and gave instructions.

"Send a telegram to Qiuniu. The Kingdom of Kucha is the key to the Silk Road. If we can live in peace, we should live in peace with the Demon Cult."

“You can spend more money, but don’t reveal the source of your wealth.”

"If something goes wrong, lead your men to retreat towards Sichuan. I will arrange for the Shenlong Secret Guards to pick you up."

"As for the fight over the Demonic Sword, it has nothing to do with him."

When the black-clad secret guard heard the order, he bowed and agreed.

"Here!"

In this era, the Silk Road is much more important than the Maritime Silk Road.

The dragon son Qiuniu is in charge of the trade route to the Western Regions. Although his martial arts skills are good, they are not at the highest level.

Because it was far away from Li Chaofeng's protection area, they chose to keep it secret. The members of the Demon Cult lived in the Western Regions for a long time, and most of them came from the lower class.

Their enemies are the noble and upright people, and their goal is to replace them and become the new exploiters.

The enemy of my enemy may not be my friend, and the hostility between both sides may be greater than that between those in the middle.

People in the martial arts world only saw that Bai Xiaolou was competing with Li Chaofeng for the title of the Demon Sword, but Li Chaofeng saw that the Demon Cult had the intention of setting foot in the Central Plains.

Bai Tianyu died in Meihua Temple, and the top masters of the righteous path stationed in the Western Regions were almost wiped out.

The Divine Sword Hall has been torn apart for a long time. After several power struggles, its deterrent effect on the Demon Cult has disappeared, and it seems that the Western Region can no longer be saved.

The leader of the evil cult, Bai Xiaolou.

In Li Chaofeng's memory, Bai Xiaolou was invincible except for the divine sword Xie Xiaofeng.

Such a top master, who stepped into the Central Plains alone but was known to everyone
Humph! !! !!
If you want to intimidate the righteous underworld by stepping on your own corpse, then go ahead and give it a try.

Having decided on the idea, Li Chaofeng arranged the several plans in his hand.

Then he flew directly from the boat and ascended to the sky in three steps.

Under the longing eyes of countless people, Li Chaofeng's gray-yellow figure crossed the sky and headed straight for Kaifeng Prefecture.

The Bi'an Dragon King rewards good deeds and punishes evil deeds. He has supernatural powers and can distinguish right from wrong and make fair decisions.

The place where the Dragon King of the Sky lives must be a place where the people can live in peace.

Bai Yujing rode a horse, letting the horse run freely on the streets of Kaifeng, looking very comfortable.

The clothes he was wearing were new, making him look extremely fresh.

But his saddle was old, his boots were old, and his scabbard was old.

Some things are always better when new, but some things are more comfortable to use when old.

Every time Bai Yujing went out, he was always energetic and comfortable.

I heard a down-and-out drunkard boasting that he had participated in a martial arts conference and had seen the world-famous hero Yan Nantian with his own eyes.

With a smile on his face and memories in his mind, his eyes were looking towards the tall restaurant in the distance.

Between water and clouds.

Li Chaofeng may be overbearing in his actions, but he can really make money.

Kaifeng Shuiyunjian occupies a good location, and all the items inside are extremely tall and luxurious.

Glass cups, fine porcelain chopsticks, incense table, sandalwood chairs.

The floor is covered with brocade silk and colorful roses cover the windows.

In addition, the wine is as bright as jade and the delicacies are as numerous as clouds.

With the reputation of the Sky Demon Dragon and the support of the Dragon Gang, he intimidated the down-and-out warriors and dared not cause trouble in Shuiyunjian, while also attracting wealthy families.

There are also rumors that the cooking skills of the chef in Shuiyunjian's kitchen were all taught by the cooking god Li Chaofeng himself.

With its delicious taste, aroma and flavor, gourmets linger here every day.

Bai Yujing has eaten a lot of Shuiyunjian delicacies and knows that the recipes of Shuiyunjian in different places are all adapted to local conditions.

Just when I was about to try out the special features of Kaifeng Shuiyunjian, I saw a plaque at the entrance of Shuiyunjian and started to read it silently.

"Those with pungent body odor and those holding weapons are not allowed to enter."

Seeing this plaque, Bai Yujing was slightly shocked.

There is also a saying in other prefectures that people with pungent body odor are not allowed to enter the Shuiyunjian, but as long as people holding weapons go to the bathhouse to wash themselves, they can enter freely.

Why is Kaifeng so unique?

After leading the horse to the entrance of Shuiyunjian, Bai Yujing bowed to the receptionist at the door and asked with a smile.

"May I ask when did Shuiyunjian establish the rule that people holding weapons are not allowed to enter?"
