Cao Cao's chef

Chapter 527 Chocolate Arms Purchase Proposal

"Ahem..." Wang Yong choked on his saliva when he heard the words, and coughed violently.

Then he looked at Xiahou Dun and asked, "Let's not say that he has nothing to do with the word 'ba'. What the hell is Zhongquan? Uncle Zhong, Zhong is the second child. Xiahouyuan should have no other children under his knees, so this' Zhong Quan' is wrong, right?"

"This..." Xiahoudun smiled, "Our family is all ranked together in the same family. There is a brother in Xiahouba above. , can only be regarded as the second child."

"So that's how it is." Wang Yong was speechless, but Xia Houba and Xia Houjuan turned out to be one person.It seems reasonable to think that Xia Houba also went to seek refuge in Shu later.

"How about this name?" Xiahou Dun still showed off, "Isn't he mighty and domineering? I thought he could stand up to the sky and support Xiahou's family!"

"But the person you mentioned, who will support Xiahou's family... probably will support other families as a good wife..." Wang Yong pointed to the person next to him who was sticking to Zhang Fei.

"The family is unlucky, the family is unlucky..." Xiahou Dun was hit by 100 million points immediately.

"Anyway, he is still young, and many things have not been settled before getting married." Wang Yong stepped forward to comfort him, "Let's wait and see in a few years, maybe after his three views are gradually cultivated, he can also marry smoothly. Where is Zhang Fei?"

"What else can I do besides this now?" Xiahoudun also had no choice, the key is that this nephew doesn't get close to her!
"Then, I'm going to prepare an afternoon lunch... I also have cookies and hot cocoa for afternoon tea... Why don't you stay and have an afternoon tea together? It would be nice to have a lady's party!" Wang Yong looked at the girls.

"What is that hot cocoa?" Zhang Fei heard this word for the first time, and he couldn't help being curious.

"Speaking of which, this thing is still a foreign product..." Wang Yong thought for a while, "It seems that Wanshiwu introduced it from the far west last year, and then it was successfully planted on a small scale in the south this year. It is very expensive! Of course, it is rare! I I discovered it by accident, mainly because they wanted me to know how to eat this thing! Yes, this thing has not been popularized and promoted, too little!"

"Suddenly I'm a little envious of you... You can taste such a rare thing." Zhang Fei looked at Wang Yong.

"I know a little more, that's all." Wang Yong smiled at her, "There are not many things, but it is not a problem to prepare a delicious meal for you. Maybe there will be more next year, but it is estimated that later It can only be popularized in a few years, but it is estimated that it will take a long time to become popular, and during this time, it is a luxury product!"

"Is there a lot of budget for Cheqi General's Mansion?" Guan Yu asked curiously.

"No, this is my friendly sponsorship!" Wang Yong smiled, "My lord likes the taste of cocoa very much, but unfortunately I can't provide it to her often, believe me, the cocoa tastes better after adding milk and sugar, it is very delicious .”

In fact, just like milk coffee, chocolate basically contains milk and sugar.There are also those who like bitterness and specifically challenge dark chocolate, of course there are sour chocolates that are not sour, and there are also white chocolates that are very sweet and milky.

However, in Wang Yong's view, there is no difference between a person who challenges bitter dark chocolate, a caffeine lover who challenges a 'death wish', or a brandy lover who challenges a 95% alcohol concentration. They are no longer satisfied.

"Then we have to look forward to it!" Zhang Fei was immediately attracted. For a chef, he must be curious about ingredients he has never seen before.

"Then, let's talk for a while, and I'll prepare it! Lunch is beef fried noodles. I originally planned to prepare seafood, but at this time, it is impossible to get fresh ones..." After Wang Yong finished speaking, he turned and left.

It's not impossible, if you're really willing to spend some money, you can still get some.If you use seawater to raise it every day, and change the seawater once a day...but the cost of this is not ordinary.

It’s okay to sponsor some afternoon tea once in a while, after all, it’s only provided by Cao Cao, and the others only drink ordinary Ceylon black tea. If you spend such a high price to get seafood back, you’re more or less suspected of buying people’s hearts.

When it was time for afternoon tea, all the girls gathered in Cao Cao's office, along with Xia Houjuan, his little follower.

"This brown drink is cocoa?" Zhang Fei lifted it up and put it in front of his nose to smell it. It smelled very strange.The familiar taste is probably the taste of milk and sugar, with a faint sense of fat.

You are not welcome, took a sip, and the unique taste and silky feeling of chocolate immediately lingered on the tongue, and the cocoa butter kept this taste on the tip of the tongue, making it last for a long time aftertaste.

"It's a strange smell...it feels like people can't live without it..." Zhang Fei said with emotion.

"For people who like sweets, maybe so." Cao Cao smiled. She likes the taste, but that's all. Besides, not many people in the future will be addicted to chocolate, coffee said.

"No, there is already one person, I guess I can't live without this taste..." Guan Yu took a sip of the chocolate, it tasted good, she could accept it, but at the moment, he was looking at another person.

"Wow wow wow... how sweet and delicious!" Liu Bei was completely intoxicated by this taste at the moment, and the tears of being moved were like breaking a bank, continuously flowing out.

"It's just a drink of hot cocoa, do you need to be so excited?" Wang Yong shook his head, "Speaking of which, the previous proposal..."

"Proposal?" Cao Cao was stunned for a moment, and then he understood, "Is it about the military purchase of chocolate? Sangong was skeptical at first, but after providing them with enough chocolate, it finally passed smoothly. It is estimated that many areas in the south , it will be widely planted next year, and if the price can be lowered, it will be considered a good thing.”

There is no way to promote chocolate, and it has become a luxury item. In the final analysis, the planting area is too small...or in other words, it is difficult for Wanshiwu to make a lot of it in one go.If it is widely planted, it is imperative to promote it. As a result, the price of chocolate will drop, and it is not surprising that it will eventually become a munitions item for the army.

"This thing, military purchase?" Liu Bei heard for the first time that this thing can also be used as military supplies.

"Chocolate can relax the mind. For soldiers who are in a state of life and death on the front line, it can keep their body and mind relaxed and reduce the pressure of war and death. At the same time, this thing contains high calories and sugar. A slap-sized piece Chocolate can already provide about one meal of calories, and it is also good as a portable ration." Wang Yong replied.

"The question is how do you know?" Zhang Fei looked at Wang Yong.

"The measurement results in cooperation with Wanshiwu already have clear data, which is also the main reason why the three officials agreed. Of course, they also directly participated in the data collection and experienced it for themselves." Cao Cao helped to answer.

"So, this thing will be supplied to the army in large quantities in the future?" Liu Bei looked at Cao Cao in disbelief.

"Basically, it's decided like this. The specifics depend on the production volume. It's just that it's scheduled, and we need the cooperation of Wanshiwu." Cao Cao looked at Liu Bei, depending on the situation, as long as the chocolate supply is stable, this guy has no choice but to run away.

　Yes, this chapter is a little watery... After all, when I was writing this, I accidentally added dark chocolate and sugar to the chicken curry I stewed. The dark chocolate I bought was really bitter. If I could add some milk to ease it maybe It's going to be good, but the finished product is... very mellow and very good.
