[Journey to the West] Wukong purchasing

Probably because there was something in their hearts, Tang Xuanzang and Wu Kong got up very early the next day. The market here usually lasts for three days. On the first day, because the vendors are not all there, many of them are here to sell small things. On the second day All the things that should be sold in three days are sold out, so the second day is the highlight of the market.

Although the market is not big, on this day, almost all the goblins and ghosts in the mountains gathered here. Wu Kong, who was disguised as a vendor, saw many monsters who were "old acquaintances" in Monkey King's memory, with flowers and fruits. In the group of mountain monkeys, there are also "Monkey King" former sworn brothers.

The Great Sage of Covering the Sea, the Jiao Demon King, is commanding a group of little demons to place all kinds of ores dug from the mountain on the stalls. Even the business stall is more luxurious than other monsters: a stone table is set up with large bluestone slabs, and the Jiao Demon King is sitting leisurely behind the stone table, a little demon is holding his shoulders for him graciously, and the other two The other quickly ran to a nearby stall and bought the mutton scones and pork stewed cabbage that the Demon King loved most.

Only today, the mutton scones and pork stewed cabbage, which have been popular in the market for half a year, are destined to be eclipsed by the wild boar stewed out of the hot pot.

Looking at the mutton scones that must be eaten every time in the market, the Demon King suddenly felt that he had no appetite. Fortunately, the little demon who served under his hands still had eyesight, smelled the fragrance, and knew that his boss was the best I like to eat fresh food, so I immediately went over with my money bag and asked the store to cut two catties of braised pork.

In the eyes of demon kings like Jiao Demon King, wild pork has always been a low-end ingredient. The pork is smelly and smelly, and the taste is not good. I didn't expect that this store didn't know what method it used. The stewed pork was not only The fishy smell was gone, and the more it chewed, the more fragrant it became. Flood Devil King took one bite, and he ate up two catties of braised pork in a short time.

"Go and buy more!" Demon King Jiao has no other hobbies, he just likes to eat something rare. After the market at the foot of the mountain opened, the other demon kings of Huaguo Mountain refused to go down the mountain to do business with mortals because of their identities. , only the Demon King Jiao will come back.

There is no way, the food made by the mortals at the bottom of the mountain is more varied than the ones in the mountain, and most of them have to be cooked and eaten to taste. The little demons under his command went to the deep mountains to dig some mines to exchange for silver. Unexpectedly, these mines were unexpectedly popular. Not only could the Jiao Demon King use this to satisfy his appetite, but he also saved a lot of money.

If you are rich and powerful, you will be even more generous when you buy food.who knows--

"My lord! The stewed meat is sold out." The little demon who was ordered to buy meat quickly came back.

"Won't they let them continue to make it after it's sold out?" Jiao Demon King slapped the table and stood up, his tall body cast a shadow on the booth, and Wu Kong, who was hiding in the crowd, frowned. In my memory, there is nothing good about it, if this dragon demon king wants to hurt people in the street, no one here will survive, maybe he can't hide it.

did not expect--

"It must be that the money you gave is not enough! How many times has this king said that you are not allowed to bully the people and scare them away. Who will cook for us in the future?"

Wu Kong: "..." No wonder people on the Internet say that foodies are the kindest species in the world.

In order to have a delicious bite, look!The Flood Demon King has even changed his previous violent temper!

However, the store really can’t make the same stewed meat anymore. If the hot pot base is not carefully prepared by the master chef, ordinary people can’t make old soup at all. Scaring the shopkeeper out of his mind, Wu Hao quickly grabbed the guy.

"Old Jiao, who do you think I am?" Wu Kong wiped his face and transformed into the appearance of Monkey King.

"So it's the Monkey King! Didn't you follow the decree of Guanyin Bodhisattva and escort Tang Monk to the west to learn scriptures? A few days ago, when we were drinking, we brothers said that if you become a Bodhisattva of Buddhism in the future, then you can't do that." You can no longer drink and eat meat with us." When the Demon King said this, he seemed to pat his chest proudly, "But it doesn't matter, even if you are not here, our brothers will also protect the gang of monkeys in the Water Curtain Cave for you. What about you guys, look at this market, it was created by your monkey cubs. Now the spirits in the mountains say that you still teach your subordinates, and the monkey cubs you teach are capable and obedient, comparable to I'm much better now."

After finishing speaking, he gave the little demon who tried to buy meat a hard look.

The little demon flattened his mouth in grievance. His prototype was a pangolin, which was not as flexible as a monkey, but the king wanted to take him with him. In fact, he had to choose by himself. He would rather go to the mountains to mine. Comfortable, what a professional counterpart!Let the pangolin monster who is good at digging holes do the shopping, the king is really not ordinary fatuous.

"Don't mention it, why learn from the scriptures? It's hard and tiring, and you can't drink or eat meat. It's better to be a rich and carefree man in the mortal world. By the way, you ran out angrily just now, old jiao, because you wanted to buy That stew?"

When it comes to stewed meat, Jiao Demon King, a foodie, immediately forgot to catch up with his old friend, grabbed Wu Cong's arm with his backhand, and urged him as he walked: "You have always been very talkative, go and try that family's food for me. What kind of spices are added to the stew? I usually go down the mountain, but this is the first time I have eaten such a delicious stew. I usually feel tired after eating too much stew, but the stew at that restaurant is more delicious. The more fragrant it is, I can't wait to lick the soup clean."

"Brother, why do you want to look far away? If you want to know what spices are added to the stew, you can ask the shop, why not ask me." Wu Kong's strength is not weaker than that of Jiao Demon King. Forcibly pulled the person back.

"When did you steal the spice recipe from that family?" Jiao Demon King turned his head, Tong Ling's big eyes were full of surprise and disbelief.

"Pfft~" Tang Xuanzang couldn't help laughing.

It seems that Brother Hou's reputation for unclean hands and feet is well-known in the Three Realms.This guy is also wronged. The monsters in the mountains are not educated. They don’t pay attention to etiquette, justice, and shame like the mortals at the bottom of the mountain. When they meet something they like, they just go and grab it. It’s a common thing to grab it directly when someone is guarding it. Maybe in Monkey King’s life In the values, there has never been the word "steal". In his opinion, as long as he can get it with his ability, it is his own. For details, he can refer to the elixir lost by Taishang Laojun.

"What stealing? The soup base was left over from our meals, and the shopkeeper used it to make stew. It's just that the spice bag can only be used twice at most before it loses its fragrance. If you go now, you will kill the shopkeeper." , and definitely won’t be able to get the spice recipe for the stew.” Wu Hong scolded angrily.Although he knew in his heart that he was not the one the Demon King said, but it was really depressing to have a reputation of being a habitual thief.

"It turns out that this stewed meat recipe belongs to my virtuous brother!" Jiao Demon King rubbed his hands in surprise, "there are plenty of fresh and tender animal meat in the mountains. Since my virtuous brother has the stewed meat recipe, how about..."

"Why don't we brothers come to discuss a deal?" Wu Hong smiled and led him to a tea stand at a corner of the market, and asked the shopkeeper to make tea soup.

Dare to accuse him of being a habitual thief?Flood Demon King, you wait for labor and management!If you don't strip your skin off, the labor and management will cut Wuzhishan up!

Seeing that Wu Kong hired a demon king-level warehouse manager at the price of 15 packs of hot pot base ingredients a month, Tang Xuanzang really felt that instead of worrying about the existence of this guy destroying the balance of the three realms, Tiandao should worry about the money of all living beings first. The bag is more realistic.

What made him even more speechless was that after being brainwashed by Boss Wu, the foodie Jiao Demon King actually felt that he could eat fifteen meals of delicious hot pot stew in a month. Is it valuable?

"You don't know about this. How can a demon king who is at the level of the dragon demon king need to guard the warehouse by himself? What he promised to guard the warehouse for me is to let the little demon patrolling the mountain go around my warehouse for an extra hour every day. That's all, it's all little monsters who run errands and work anyway, at worst, he will be in a better mood when the time comes, and reward the little monsters with a piece of hot pot and stew." Wu Hao pouted, just like all aunts who have successfully bargained, feeling that he The price for 15 packs of hot pot base ingredients is still too high, otherwise why would this guy agree so eagerly?

"I think you have a good mind as a sworn brother." Although he didn't want to hit Boss Wu, Elder Tang had to tell him the unfortunate news. He seemed to have really lost money on this deal, "I seem to remember, you guys The hot pot base that I ate had a lot of precious spices added in it, such as star anise, cinnamon, cloves, amomum, cumin, cardamom..."

"Stop it!" Boss Wu couldn't help covering his chest with his hands.

"what happened?"

"It's nothing, just the old problem of angina pectoris again..."

Is it possible for a businessman not to get sick when he hears that the raw material is sold at a higher price than the finished product?

He didn't perform a show and died on the spot, so he was very strong!

Boss Wu, who felt that he had lost a lot of money, would be much easier to summon the Demon King.

Monkey King has not been back to Huaguoshan Water Curtain Cave for a long time. Naturally, he wants to bring some local products to visit relatives in his hometown. What if there are not enough people to carry luggage?Doesn't the Flood Demon King have many little monsters under his command?They are all borrowed.

What if there is not enough meat to entertain the monkeys and their grandchildren?Didn't the Jiao Demon King say that there are a lot of prey in the mountains?Just ask him to help prepare some fresh and tender meat. Anyway, he is also among the guests at the banquet. This is a high-paying talent invited by fifteen bags of hot pot ingredients a month, and he must not let his work go for nothing!

The return of the Monkey King made the entire Huaguo Mountain boil.

As expected of the influential figure who once made Huaguoshan famous in the Three Realms, even if Wu Cong declared that he has now "abandoned evil and followed good" and stopped being a demon king and a purchasing agent, it still cannot dampen the worship of the Monkey King by the monkey grandchildren .

In the group of monkeys, the only unhappy ones are probably the unmarried female monkeys.

Tang Xuanzang, who is thin-skinned and tender-fleshed, who can't hunt at first glance, let alone make wine, raise bees and catch lice, what virtue and ability can he do?He even abducted the most ideal blind date of the female monkeys in Huaguo Mountain!

Regarding this, Elder Tang could only hehe.

Can he say that he doesn't want to hear monkeys and grandchildren calling him "Queen"?
