Zhenguan Leisurely King

Chapter 31

"Hi everyone, I am the owner of Wangjiazhuang. You can call me Young Master Wang." Wang Pingan introduced himself to the people in the hall.

"Hello, Young Master Wang." Everyone said to Wang Ping'an.

"Master Lu is consoling everyone today, and specially sent someone to send a batch of ingredients, which are in the yard now, let's go and have a look together." Wang Pingan invited everyone to go outside to look at the ingredients.

Because Wang Ping'an had invited, it was difficult for everyone to refuse, so they went to the yard together.

Everyone thought to themselves: "Isn't it just the ingredients for a meal? What's so good about walking?"

Although everyone looked down on the chef profession and was reluctant to see the ingredients, they couldn't resist Wang Pingan's invitation.

Wang Pingan didn't care what they thought, he planned to advertise the deliciousness of pork, so that those big households in Luoyang would hear how delicious the food made of pork was, so that when the whole pig banquet was held, those wealthy people in Luoyang would bring pork with them. Go to the dinner party with curiosity, not with suspicion.

When they came to the yard, everyone saw a pig screaming "angang", and a cart of ingredients, there were so many things.

"Everyone knows that pigs are not tasty, almost everyone knows it, but I want to tell you that the dishes you have eaten before are not authentic. Today I will let everyone taste what is delicious." Wang Pingan confidently Said.

Hearing that pork can be used to cook delicious food, everyone is not calm, because these people can say that they have eaten pork, but they just haven't tasted delicious.

Some people didn't believe Wang Ping'an's words at all, and thought to themselves: "This owner of Wang's estate is so old, he knows how to cook, and he can deceive ghosts."

Some people looked at Wang Ping'an curiously: "The owner of Wang's estate, in addition to designing a new type of Quyuanli, also knows how to cook, which is really surprising. You must taste it carefully."

Wang Pingan ignored their thoughts and continued: "I know, some of you will definitely think that I am too young to know what is delicious. Here I can tell you clearly that it is not that you have never eaten delicious food. I, but you, don't believe it, you will know at night."

Everyone was stunned for a moment. Today, a ten-year-old kid said that he had never eaten delicious food. You know, I have been to Juxianglou in Luoyang a few times. I would not know, hum.

Everyone looked at Wang Ping'an with contempt and disbelief.

Wang Pingan ignored others and continued: "But if you want to eat delicious food, you have to help everyone."

"Master, you can tell me Gu Han what you need to do." Gu Han was the first to stand up and support his little master.

"Well, tell the kitchen to boil more hot water, and then ask someone to kill the pig." Wang Ping'an ordered.

"Yes, young master." After Gu Han finished speaking, he went to order the kitchen to boil water.

Not long after, Gu Han came to the front yard again with a butcher's knife.

Wang Pingan frowned and looked at Gu Han, and asked, "Don't tell me, young master, that you plan to kill a pig yourself."

"The young master is right. The villain intends to kill pigs. Before joining the army, the villain made a living by killing pigs." Gu Han explained.

"Very good. In fact, young master, I don't know how to butcher pigs, so I'll leave it to you here. Just tell me what you need."

"No problem, master."

Gu Han asked his servants to prepare two wooden barrels, a big wooden stick, hooks, machetes and so on.

Seeing that everything was ready, Gu Han said, "You guys help me bring down the pig, remember to hang the legs in the air, so that the pig can't exert its strength, and then put it on the bench."

After the ancient Han gave the order, he saw four or five servants. After knocking the pig down, he lifted it on the two benches placed in the front row, so that its four hooves could not touch the ground. The pig seemed to know its fate and desperately howling.

I saw that the ancient Han took out a sharp knife, pointed it under the pig's neck, and inserted the sharp knife in forcefully until it reached the end, then turned the sharp knife [-] degrees, and then pulled it out, a stream of pig blood flowed out. The pressure in the pig's body, spurted out, all flowed into the barrel.

At this time, the pig seemed to use all its strength to jump around, and four or five servants also pressed the pig with all their strength, otherwise the pig would move, and finally the pig's tail began to hang down naturally.

Seeing that the pig didn't move, Gu Han said, "Okay. Go to the kitchen and bring the hot water and pour it into a wooden barrel. After the hair is soaked until soft, shave all the hair off."

The servants obeyed the ancient Chinese order to go to the kitchen to fetch hot water, pour the hot water into the wooden bucket, and then put the whole pig into the wooden bucket. Not to mention, the ancient wooden bucket is big enough to hold it. The next 3 people can take a bath in it, and now there is more than enough room for pigs.

Wang Pingan found that the ancient Han slaughtered pigs was really clean and neat, and did not cause too much pain to the pigs, and the people from the Sigong Mansion next to them were whispering to each other that the ancient Han slaughtered pigs well.

After about a bag of cigarettes, Gu Han saw that the hair was softened, and said, "It's almost done, the hair has softened, you can start shaving."

"Yes."

After the servants heard the order, each of them took a small knife and started shaving.Because most of the hair has been scalded by hot water, and a small part of the hair is still on the pigskin.

They began to shave small parts with a knife, and soon a snow-white, fat dead pig appeared in front of everyone.

"Master Wang, do you know if this pig has been killed?" asked one of the master craftsmen of the Sigong Mansion.

"Don't ask me, the young master is only responsible for cooking, butchering pigs and other things, do you think I can do it at the age of ten?" Wang Pingan asked back.

As soon as Wang Pingan said this, he immediately attracted countless eyes: "You also know that you are only ten years old. Can a ten-year-old person cook? Even if he can cook, will the cooked food be delicious?"

The person who asked the question couldn't laugh or cry, and said in his heart, "What a wonderful young man."

Wang Ping'an ignored them, and continued to appreciate the ancient Han Dynasty butchering pigs. I don't know if it's because of his ten-year-old body that Wang Ping'an's mind is a bit like a child.

I saw that Gu Han used a hook to pass through the pig's chin, and then hung the other end of the hook on a tree.

Gu Han picked up the butcher's knife and rubbed it against the sharp knife a few times, making a "chuo babble" sound, like the music from the god of death, about to harvest other people's lives.

I saw that Gu Han threw down the knife, and the whole pig was disembowelled.There are basins ready to catch the fallen heart, liver, spleen, lung, large intestine and other pigs into the water.

"You put these pigs into the water and throw them away," Gu Han ordered.

"Yes." The servant carried the basin and planned to throw the pig into the water.

"and many more."

The servants and Gu Han looked at Wang Ping'an one after another, with blank expressions on their faces.

"Wait, wait, why did you throw away the baby, the prodigal stuff, you don't know, everything in the pig's belly is high-quality ingredients, as long as you can handle it, it's a great delicacy." Wang Pingan was looking at Xing's head, and suddenly Hearing that the pig was going to be thrown into the water, he hurriedly stopped it. It was delicious, but throwing it away would be like a thunderbolt.

"Young master, pigs are not clean or tasty, so it's useless to keep them." Gu Han reminded.

"What's useless, that's because you don't need to do it. You, go and wash the pigs in the water, and make a dish for everyone to taste later." Wang Pingan pointed to the servant who was carrying the pigs into the water.

"Yes, young master." After the servant responded respectfully, he went to wash those pigs into the water.

Gu Han was told by Wang Ping'an that he didn't know whether it was true or not, but he still wanted to listen to what the young master said, so he continued to deal with the rest of the work.

Gu Han picked up the butcher's knife and cut off the pig's head with one knife, then the limbs, and cut off the back seat and so on.

"Gu Han, help me bring out those spare ribs, let the limbs and trotters be cut off as well. And the pork leg meat..." Wang Pingan ordered Gu Han to cut off the ingredients to be used.

"Okay, master." When Gu Han heard Wang Ping'an say a place, he cut it up. In the time of a cup of tea, the whole pig was decomposed into pieces.

A big show of killing pigs also came to an end.

However, the audience next to them were still in high spirits. It was the first time for these people to watch live pig slaughtering, so they were still on high spirits until now.

This also has something to do with the Tang Dynasty's martial arts environment. Everyone has a blood in their hearts, and seeing a pig slaughtered will arouse their blood.Unlike the Song Dynasty, which emphasized literature and suppressed martial arts, everyone directed the dance of literature and ink, and was not bloody. When seeing a golden man, it is like a prey seeing a hunter, and will only run away.
