Chapter 44 Greed is a Kind of Nature

Strictly speaking, Li Ming's meal wasn't even a home-cooked meal, but in this era of scarcity of ingredients, it's hard to force anything.Li Ming felt very happy to be able to eat home-cooked food.

Silently put down the chopsticks, just about to feel the delicious aftertaste, but when he looked up, he found several people standing outside the tent.Others were fine, but he couldn't ignore Zhu Yong, Yang Le, Xin Pi and Zhang Mo.

Behind them was a person who looked very familiar. Li Ming scratched his head and remembered that it seemed to be the man named 'Xi Zhong' at the banquet.

"You guys, why are you here? Don't look at me like this, I'm sorry..." Li Ming asked a little embarrassed.

"Cough, just looking at the captain enjoying himself so much, I can't bear to disturb you." Zhu Yong coughed lightly to cover up his embarrassment.

"Why don't I get some more and share them with everyone?" Li Ming gestured.

"You can have this!" Zhu Yong and the others nodded one after another. One or two couldn't wait, and it was obvious that they were all greedy.

"Is this necessary?" Li Ming's head was full of black lines, although he couldn't see them.Then he stood up slowly and came to Xi Zhong, "Brother, I didn't expect us to meet again! Meeting is fate, why don't we have a meal together?"

"Don't dare, Caomin is just a white body, and he shouldn't be taken care of by the captain!" Hearing this, Xi Zhong immediately bowed his hands and saluted, not daring to make mistakes.Even though he is a student of Yingchuan Academy, the fact that he is poor and white has not changed.

Although Li Ming is a miscellaneous school lieutenant, he must at least be a military lord in the future, and he also has an official status.

"Speaking of which, Xiongtai entered the barracks this time, maybe he didn't just pass by by chance?" Li Ming looked at Xi Zhong slyly.

"Xi has figured it out. Enlisting in the army is also a way out to defend the country. It may not be a way out. After thinking about it all night, he plans to join the captain. It's just that Xi doesn't know martial arts..." Xi Zhong replied solemnly after hearing this.

"My subordinates have learned that Zhicai's physique is not good, but he has thousands of volumes of economics in his chest. Whether it is calculations or ordinary clerical work, he is competent. At the same time, Zhicai is proficient in the art of war and strategy, so he can help me in this regard!" Simpi He stepped forward and said.

Simpi is only 16 years old, and it is the period when he is going to be strong.If he can praise Xi in this way... Zhicai... then the other party must have real materials, wait a minute?Zhicai?Play Zhicai? !

"Your Excellency's name is Zhicai?" Li Ming looked at this man named 'Xi Zhong' a little surprised.

"Yingchuan Xizhong, the word Zhicai!" Xi Zhicai is also very strange, why is Li Ming so excited?
In Li Ming's very little knowledge of the Three Kingdoms, to a large extent, it is his knowledge of some of the main generals under Liu Bei, Cao Cao and Sun Quan.There is a fragment in which I can barely remember. I remember that when Cao Cao needed a counselor, Xun Yu recommended Xi Zhicai to him, and it was not until after his death that he recommended Guo Jia.

Even if he can't be said to be comparable to Guo Jia's... that kind of talent, but it must be very close, and he can be regarded as the top strategic talent in the Three Kingdoms.Unexpectedly, he came from a poor family, and he came directly to the door!
"Hahahaha, Zhicai is also considered a rare talent in this world. It is really a great fortune for Li to be able to serve him when he is successful! This is good. Zhicai mainly serves as the chief secretary in the army, handles logistics affairs, and concurrently serves as the deputy military adviser. Simpi When commanding the battle, how about you to be in charge of the affairs of the military division?" Li Ming directly offered a very high price.

"How did this happen?" Xi Zhicai couldn't help being surprised, he was entrusted with a heavy responsibility just after joining?It could be seen that Li Ming really valued him, but he couldn't figure out why he valued him.

At the same time, he couldn't help but recall that during the banquet, he asserted that Guo Jia would definitely achieve extraordinary things in the future.At the same time, I also commented that Chen Qun has made great achievements in politics. Does that also show his situation?

In other words, Li Ming has the ability to comment on the world's heroes like Xu Shao?It's just that Xu Shao is a celebrity, so his comments can quickly spread throughout the world. Even if Li Ming has such ability, what benefit can he bring as his status?
"There are many affairs in the army, please help me from Zhicai in the future!" Li Ming cupped his hands and bowed solemnly to Xi Zhicai.

The faces of the people around changed suddenly. Li Ming had never been so polite to others, nor had he valued anyone so much.But he didn't expect that Xi Zhi had just come to join the army, and he actually gave such a big gift. Who the hell is he?

Even Simpi who was on the side felt a little sour in his heart at the moment, feeling that he was not valued because he didn't have the will to act.

"Hahaha! In order to celebrate Zhicai's joining our army, the captain of the school personally cooks, everyone has a good time eating! There is also a lamb, no, tonight, I will directly roast a whole lamb with charcoal. Hey, I am so annoyed that there is no cumin!" Li Ming laughed loudly, and then ran directly towards the back kitchen.

To say that roasted lamb is the most recommended lamb, the skin is smooth and the meat is tender, and the key is that it does not have such a strong mutton smell.It's just that lamb is rare and the price is the most expensive.If it wasn't for the fact that "The Meat Chopper Technique" had already been sold and earned some pocket money, Li Ming really didn't have the money to buy it.

In the dumbfounded eyes of everyone, Li Ming easily disemboweled and peeled the lamb, then simply used wine to deodorize it, and then brushed it with half a can of soybean oil while roasting. As the lamb slowly roasted, A scent rose slowly.

I dare not say that it can be as delicious as adding cumin and barbecue sauce, but it is qualified as a roast lamb.It is rare that it is not burnt, and the 20% probability of flavor enhancement is triggered, so the roasted lamb is naturally more delicious.

"By the way, it seems that cumin was also called cumin in the past, and it should have been introduced in this era. Maybe it was used for medicinal purposes. It seems that star anise was also used as medicine in the past. Maybe you can look for it some other day!" Li Ming Quickly finished work, looking at this roast lamb, but secretly murmured in his heart.

"It's a pity that there are no lotus leaves, otherwise at least one beggar's chicken can be produced!" Li Ming unloaded the sheep from the grill, divided it into several portions with a knife in his hand, and ordered someone to give them some.

Immediately, Li Ming started to deal with another carp, a carp weighing at least ten catties.Immediately, the knife was raised and dropped, and the carp was completely dismembered in a short time.Spread a knife on the fish meat to the skin without cutting off the skin, cut off 4 to 5 pieces, cut into strips along the tendons until the skin is continuous, sprinkle a little salt to catch sticky.

There was flour prepared in the back kitchen, but it was poorly ground and the grains were too large. Li Ming had to sift it carefully before wrapping it in a coat, patted off the excess flour, and started frying.For this reason, he almost put the small can of soybean oil in it.

No ketchup, or tomatoes at all these days.There is no white sugar in the sugar, only caramel, at least it can be seasoned, and this chrysanthemum fish is made.The moment the table was served, Li Ming actually heard several people swallow their saliva in unison.

The main focus is on these two items. For the rest, make a white-cut chicken and one or two vegetables. This meal is rich enough!Li Ming felt that it was not enough, so he simply kneaded a large ball of flour, then added eggs and salt, kneaded the flour well, prepared some loose flour directly on the table, and then pulled the noodles rhythmically. This step is very easy, and a few bowls of noodles can be put into the pot in less than 4 minutes.

The Han Dynasty adopted a meal-sharing system, basically each person served a dish and a bowl of noodles.

"This is roast mutton? Then what did I eat before? I can't believe that the mutton tastes like this!" Yang Le grabbed the mutton directly and ate it with big mouthfuls. "There is no smell at all, and the meat is smooth and tender. Juice, how did you do this?"

"I didn't expect that the earthy carp could be made so delicious! The shape of the chrysanthemum looks very elegant at first glance, and this alone is a kind of enjoyment! It tastes crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and the use of caramel is just right Good thing, why didn't anyone think of this method before? No, even if they knew it, they couldn't make it so delicious!" Xi Zhicai was not slow to eat.

In the last less than 5 minutes, under their emotion, all the food in front of them was gone.At the same time, they also showed an expression of unsatisfactory expressions, and their eyes glanced at the share in front of Li Ming from time to time.

"Is it worth it?" Li Ming glared at them, and the rest immediately sat upright.

"I know you haven't eaten good food, since you are under my command, how can you be missing?" Li Ming said angrily.

"Thank you Captain (Master)!" Hearing this, everyone immediately beamed with joy and saluted to thank him.

"I didn't expect that the captain is not only brave, but also has such superb cooking skills! It's just that this cook is a small way, and the captain can't be addicted to it!" Xi Zhicai, who had just joined the group, suddenly persuaded, causing everyone around cast a hostile look.

"Culinary skills can be used to practice hands, eyes and mind. Those who are good at it are naturally not bad at martial arts, and vice versa, they can complement martial arts! Besides, if you let your tongue suffer for the sake of demeanor, what's the use of living and salted fish?" Difference?" Li Ming asked back.

"It's Zhicai Menglang!" After Xi Zhicai heard this, he couldn't say much.

"It's good for me to know that being talented is good, but cooking is Li's interest. If during the march or war, Li naturally doesn't have high requirements for this, as long as he can feed himself!" Li Ming replied with a smile.

"The general is wise!" Xi Zhicai bowed solemnly, showing a hopeful expression, "It seems that Xi will be lucky in the future!"

The atmosphere of the first meeting was good, at least Xi Zhicai said that he would not leave now.The famous Xi Zhicai was bribed with just one meal, it's a bit ironic to say it out.

Greedy ghost, gluttonous ghost is also good!Li Ming welcomes the greedy ghosts too much. As long as the cooking level is raised in the future, these guys will never be able to do without themselves in this life!No, I have to find a way to fool this old boy and become my own general!

Just being a subordinate is not enough insurance after all!If you let him fall into Cao Cao's command, you might as well find a way to kill him secretly!

Thinking of this, Li Ming looked at Xi Zhicai with a little more cunning...

 The two updates are delivered, I just hope that everyone will pass by, give a favorite or recommend something...
