Cao Cao's chef

Chapter 27 The world has no tofu

"Is my lord's trouble a private matter or a business matter? If it's the latter, why don't you tell me about it?" Wang Yong asked immediately after hearing the words.It's not just saying it casually, but I feel that Cao Cao is waiting for him to ask this question.

With the strength she had when meeting her for the first time, when encountering such a situation, I'm afraid she would answer directly: "It has nothing to do with you!"

Instead, show your weak side and directly tell a man who you have only known for about two days that you are in distress.Wait a minute, maybe she in this world is just so messy in the first place?After all, Dian Wei just met him, and he was recruited immediately!
"Anyway, you can't solve it, so why waste your tongue?" Cao Cao looked up at Wang Yong, with distrust on the surface.

Obviously, Wang Yong guessed wrong.Cao Cao didn't mind replying only because Wang Yong was already under his command.But from the beginning to the end, she didn't think that Wang Yong had the ability to solve her troubles.After all, she has only known each other for two days, and the man in front of her, what she values ​​most is his cooking skills and recipes, and his cooking skills are not even up to the qualified standard in her mind.

Based on her background, she is a senior chef, and she even has the chance to taste the dishes carefully prepared by a special chef.

In her opinion, Wang Yong's culinary skills are actually at the intermediate level, and he can't stand on the table.At most, I can't deny that he is indeed very talented in cooking!As for the others, it's a pity that I can't see it yet, but she doesn't have much hope!
"Meng De, since our chef is so curious, why don't you satisfy his curiosity a little bit?" Xun Yu originally planned to help, but before he could tell, Cheng Yu had already said something.

Then he blinked at Xun Yu, and the latter gave him a thankful look.

"Heh...it's okay to tell you!" Cao Cao smiled slightly, "A while ago, I used some tricks to buy a batch of military rations from Wanshiwu at a very small price!"

Oh, it's what Wen Ming said...or the thing he complained about?It is said that Wanshiwu has strengthened the trial, so Cao Cao wants to use similar means to buy a batch of military rations at a low price, but it is no longer feasible!

"The problem is that we have just expanded our army, and this batch of military rations is still far from enough! So I need more food. The problem is that the way of the house of all things can no longer go, and if you buy it at the market price, you can't buy much at all. You know, now Yanzhou The price of grain changes almost three times a day!" Cao Cao sighed, and she had actually said this to several think tanks in private.

After all, it’s not a glorious thing, and I didn’t plan to tell Wang Yong, the cook, now that I’ve said it, I’ll continue to say: “So I can only ask the gentry in Yanzhou for help, but because I killed a celebrity before, the gentry treated me I have a very bad impression, because I am the governor of Yanzhou, I am afraid that I will use force, so I give in a little bit and give two problems! As long as I solve these two problems, they will take out half of the grain in stock and donate it to me as Military rations... wait a minute, there is a difficult problem that you may be able to answer!"

"Oh, since I can answer, it should be related to cooking, right?" Wang Yong asked after thinking about it.

"That's true!" Cao Cao nodded, "They want to eat something that is not smelly, spicy, sour, bitter, hard, not made of grains, let alone poultry eggs, and not cooked in the same way. Either baked or stewed."

"That's easy!" Dian Wei squeezed the steamed bun in his hand, "This one is neither smelly nor spicy nor sour nor bitter, and it's still soft!"

"It's evil..." Xun Yu smiled, "There is also a requirement in the title that it cannot be made of grain, otherwise it is fine!"

"Wang Yong... It seems that you have never asked, what is your watch?" Cao Cao looked at Wang Yong and asked Xiang, only to remember that he had known him not long ago, and it seemed that he didn't even know his watch.

"Are you finally willing to ask?" Wang Yong replied with a little displeasure, "At any rate, you came here to confiscate in person, at least understand, the name of the person you want to conscript, what is the name, and what is the name? Chang'an Wang Yong, the name is Wuyou. It's a pity that I don't come from a wealthy family, but I don't mind being the first generation!"

"The owner's ambition is quite good!" Le Jin laughed loudly, "Although it's a bit difficult, don't give up!"

In this era, it is not easy for men without any background to stand out.Among other things, first of all, he must successfully marry a wife, have one to three descendants before the age of four or fifty, and pass on his skills.Otherwise, it would be impossible for the family or something.

"The owner is only in his twenties, and he is already scheduled to become the head chef of the state. If the lord goes a step further, and he is capable enough, he can naturally go further. But even if he is the head chef of the state, he should be able to save some assets, and he may not be unable to marry A good match." But Xun Yu came forward to speak justice for Wang Yong.

"Hmph, that's also because it's Meng De! If it were another faction, he might not even have the possibility of becoming an official!" Xiahou Dun said bluntly. She could admit that Wang Yong's food tasted pretty good, but he , very annoying to her!
"Let's not talk about that first!" Cao Cao signaled everyone to be quiet. After all, the topic was so distorted that he didn't know where to go. Then he looked at Wang Yong, "Similar dishes like this, can you know without worry?"

"Not smelly, not spicy, not sour, not bitter, not hard, not made of grains, let alone poultry eggs, the cooking method can't be roasted or stewed, right?" Wang Yong only felt that these words were a bit familiar, as if in Where have I heard of it.

"Ah!" Wang Yong suddenly realized that he seemed to have seen it somewhere. In a certain animation, there was a scene in which a nobleman used this to make things difficult for the store, but was perfectly counterattacked.

The first thing the store uses is something that is neither smelly nor spicy nor sour nor bitter, and that is - tofu!
In fact, after deducting this, there are still many dishes that can be found. After all, there is no restriction on the use of seafood, and there is no restriction on the use of cooking methods such as frying, frying, or even steaming.Eggs are only limited to poultry eggs. If you really want to count snake eggs and turtle eggs, it is not good to restrict them. You can even use crab eggs or even fish roe.

In addition to tofu, there are actually konjac, Chinese cabbage and potatoes.

"Could the store have thought of it?" Cao Cao immediately asked in surprise when he saw Wang Yong's gesture.

"I figured it out! Just use tofu!" Wang Yong nodded. As for konjac, he didn't know if it was in stock yet.After all, this thing is poisonous if eaten raw, and it needs to be processed before it can be eaten safely.It is estimated that in this era, no one should eat it!
"Tofu, what is tofu?" After Wang Yong said it, the others showed puzzled expressions.

"You don't know about tofu?" Wang Yong was very surprised. Normally, tofu should have been invented in the Western Han Dynasty, right?

"If we know, do you think this question can still be difficult for us?" Xun Yu explained.

"That's a good opportunity. I can solve this problem. I just need to make tofu! However, I only know the principle, so I need to try it... Beans are usually soybeans, and black beans are also fine. Is it the account of the Yamen?" Wang Yong asked.

"If you can solve it, I can even give you a quota of one stone! For one stone of black beans, or soybeans of the same value, you must research the tofu, otherwise, you will be responsible for the extra part!" Cao Cao thought for a while, and finally Still decided to give Wang Yong a chance, "But the time is a bit tight, within three days, within three days must be researched!"

"Okay, I'll do my best!" Wang Yong thought for a while, and finally agreed.

　In Chinese history, tofu was invented by Liu An, king of Huainan in the Western Han Dynasty. It was the first to add gypsum or brine to make tofu.However, there is indeed no record of tofu appearing in itself, which is actually one of the violations. I have already said in the introduction that the maliciousness of this book is actually not that simple.

　　Thank you book friend 'HKT' for your reward!Since I have to have a physical examination tomorrow, I have to queue at [-] o'clock in the morning, so there is only one update today, please forgive me!
