He was betrayed at the beginning, from a cake seller to a wealthy person

After another busy day at the rate of two towns a day, it was finally the turn of Xiping Town. Qi Yuan and Liu Hongtu knew that Lu Yan must go to Xiping Town, so they prepared a carriage specially for her. Lu Yan and He Wenjing took a separate carriage.

The carriage headed towards Xiping Town. After entering Xiping Town, the troops split into two groups. Qi Yuan and Liu Hongtu led the doctors straight to the ward, while Lu Yan led He Wenjing straight to the hot spring village.

Before parting, Lu Yan poked her head in and said, "When you come back at noon, come directly to my village for dinner!"

Seeing both of them nodding, Lu Yan dropped the car curtain and left without looking back. The two of them also returned to the carriage and headed to the ward.

Lu Yan hurried all the way to Zhuangzi. The gatekeeper was very excited when he saw Lu Yan coming: "Master, you are here! We haven't been out for such a long time! We don't even know what's going on outside!"

"It's okay not to go out! It's not very good outside. Fortunately, you are okay!" Lu Yan fully affirmed this move.

Lu Yan hurriedly ran inside. Zhuangzi heard that she was coming and everyone came out to greet her. Lu Yan finally breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that everyone was fine.

The hot spring village was like a paradise. It was as warm and peaceful as ever. Lu Yan relaxed completely and said, "It's great that you guys are okay."

"Thanks to Manager Zhou!" Chen Xinghai said.

Lu Yan turned to look at Zhou Liang: "What should I say?"

"During the Chinese New Year, we took our children to my parents' house and then back to my parents' house. We saw many disaster victims coming to the village. My family said there were people suffering from frostbite. We saw it when we were leaving and it didn't feel good." Zhou Liang explained: "When we came back, we found that there were many victims in Xiping Town. Fortunately, most of us in Zhuangzi live here and don't go out very much. When I came back, I immediately locked the door and stopped the reservation. Zhuangzi was locked up and no one could come in or out unless necessary. It didn’t take long for news to come out that several towns had begun to suffer from plague.”

Lu Yan gave Zhou Liang a thumbs up: "Well done! You are so sharp! It's a mess outside now. I feel relieved to see that you are all fine."

You've come here, but it would be a waste if you didn't take a dip in the hot springs. Lu Yan went to take a bath in the hot spring, came out and went straight to the kitchen to figure out what to make.

Xiping Town was the last town in Yaoshan County where the plague occurred. They did not need to go to another town after running in the village in the afternoon. They could just go directly to the next county with the doctors tonight or tomorrow morning. There is no need to work hard in the afternoon. You can take a good rest at noon.

As soon as Lu Yan entered the kitchen, Chen Xinghai greeted her: "Master, will you cook the food yourself?"

Lu Yan waved her hand: "You do what you want, I'll think about it."

With Chen Xinghai here, she doesn't have to do too much work. Qi Yuan was about to leave, and she wanted to make something that Qi Yuan could take away as a snack. He could eat it on the way, mainly to bring it back to Jian Hongling.

Lu Yan thought about what she could do, something strange and delicious. After thinking about it, Lu Yan decided to make the most classic pork jerky and potato chips.

Chop the pork into puree, add salt, sugar, pepper, homemade MSG, soy sauce, and stir evenly. Take a large piece of oil paper and spread it out, put the minced pork on the oil paper, cover it with another layer of oil paper, roll it out with a rolling pin, roll it into a large piece of meat half a centimeter thick, put it in the oven and bake it for ten minutes on high heat.

When baking, mix some honey water, take it out after ten minutes, brush it with a layer of honey water, and bake it for five minutes. When the time is up, take it out, brush it with another layer of honey water, sprinkle with white sesame seeds, and bake it for another five minutes. .

As soon as the pork breast is taken out, the unique aroma instantly fills the air. It is a unique taste formed by the fusion of the rich meat aroma and the sweet aroma of honey. Cut it into pieces, pick up a piece and put it in your mouth. The salty and sweet flavors are well blended, and it is very chewy and delicious.

Chen Xinghai had already come over, curiously looking at the pork breasts prepared by Lu Yan, and asked: "Master, what is this?"

Lu Yan took a piece and handed it to him: "Pork breast, snacks, you can try it."

Chen Xinghai couldn't wait to put it in his mouth, his eyes narrowed: "It's delicious! If this was sold in a store, many people would order it."

Lu Yan: "You were watching me when I was doing it just now. It wasn't difficult at all. From now on, just watch and do it by yourself. Once you're done, you can sell it in the chess and card room."

Chen Xinghai's eyes widened: "My boss! I have no intention of stealing from you!"

Lu Yan didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "It's just this little thing. You can steal it as you like. I don't care. Once you see it, it's yours."

Chen Xinghai was so moved that he swore: "I will only do it in Zhuangzi from now on and never take it out."

"Okay, okay," Lu Yan said, "I'll teach you another potato chip. You come and cut the potatoes."

The only difficulty in frying potato chips is your knife skills. It is quite difficult to cut potatoes into thin slices of about one millimeter. Lu Yan directly taught Chen Xinghai: "After peeling the skin, slice it as thinly as you can."

Chen Xinghai had learned his basic skills since childhood. The potato slices he cut were as thin as cicada wings and translucent. Lu Yan was very satisfied and praised him again and again.

Wash the potato slices in water to wash off the starch on them. Put the potato slices into the pot and blanch them in water. After eight or nine seconds, the potato slices become transparent and then take them out. Rinse with cold water to wash off the mucus on the surface.

Heat a large amount of oil in a pot, add potato slices under [-]% heat, stir constantly, fry the water out, make them crispy and hard, and take them out. When the oil is [-]% hot, add the potato chips and fry until the color turns yellow and there are slight bubbles on the surface. The potato chips are ready.

Put the fried potato chips in a large basin, add salt, cumin powder, homemade MSG, chicken powder, and chili powder, and shake the large basin to coat them evenly.

Lu Yan picked up a piece and ate it, then it cracked into pieces in her mouth. Lu Yan narrowed her eyes, this was the rush! It would be better if there was another bottle of Coke!

Lu Yan pushed the basin towards Chen Xinghai. Chen Xinghai was not polite and picked it up to eat.

Potato chips are something that you can't stop eating. You either don't eat them or you have to finish them. Lu Yan fried a bowl of potato chips, and the two of them ate one piece after another without finishing it. When they realized it, it was already less than half full.

Chen Xinghai put down his hands and said, "Haha, did I eat too much?"

Lu Yan also laughed and said: "Haha, it's okay. There are plenty of potatoes. Let's fry a few more pots."

Why be a cook? Isn’t it just that you can make whatever you want to eat and eat it to your heart’s content? This is what being a cook is for! ! !

Lu Yan and Chen Xinghai put the remaining half of the pot of potato chips aside and would eat them as snacks when they came back. Started a new round of making pork jerky and potato chips.

When Qi Yuan and Liu Hongtu came back, they had roasted seven or eight large pieces of pork breasts, cut them into pieces, and put them into more than a dozen oil paper bags. Several pots of potato chips were fried, but Lu Yan thought about it and realized that these things were actually not easy to carry around because they were too easy to break.

From now on, I'll just dry the sweet potatoes and dry the sweet potato fries, which can be used.
