Overlord's Road to Ancient Emperors

After dinner, Li Xu sat in the yard to smoke the meat. He ordered someone to build an earthen stove in the yard, and then lit a fire in the stove, then hung the sliced ​​pork belly on the earthen stove, and slowly smoked it.

For 5000 years, everyone preserved fresh meat in much the same way. They either salted it or dried it. Li Xu felt that the salted meat was too salty and the dried meat was too hard, so he wanted to make some bacon. When cooking, cut off a little of the outermost layer, cut into slices and fry for a while, it’s not bad, but the chili is missing.

"Is there a shop run by a barbarian in this city? Or barbarian merchants come to market?" Li Xu remembered that chili peppers were brought in from the Western Regions, so it is not wrong to find a barbarian merchant.

Liu Shu has traveled all over the city in the past few days, and he really knows, "In the north of the city, there is a market for Hu merchants. If you want to buy Xianbei slaves, cattle and sheep, you can go there to trade."

Speaking of cattle and sheep, Li Xu realized that he hadn't eaten beef and mutton for a long time. Most of the meat he ate was wild game hunted by the Habayashi Army, mostly hares and pheasants, and there was also a common bird here. Compared with beef and mutton, it is too far behind.

However, Dayan prohibits folks from eating beef, especially farm cattle. Once someone is found slaughtering farm cattle and eating meat, they will be imprisoned, but the cattle brought by Hu merchants are not included in this list.

"Tomorrow, I'll buy a few cattle and sheep, and I'll give you a change of taste." It's still hot at this time, otherwise Li Xu would be impatient to cook beef hot pot and lamb scorpion hot pot.

The Habayashi army was very happy when they heard the news. It was really comfortable to travel with His Royal Highness Shun Wang. They ate well and slept well. They have not gone far, and their belly is round. The task still complains again and again, and now I don't want to go home.

"Your Highness, let's go and buy some Xianbei slaves. The Xianbei slaves are very strong and can protect you even if you are in danger," Liu Shu said.

This is a good idea. Although Li Xu doesn't like to treat people as slaves, he also knows that the social system is like this. He can only follow the crowd, and he claims to be a good boss. It is the other party's luck to be bought back by him.

"Okay, let's go and see tomorrow." Li Xu looked at the time. If things went well, there should be good news coming from the flower boat. He got up and stretched himself, and said to Lin Zhao: "It's not too early Now, the king is going to rest, Commander Lin should also rest earlier."

Lin Zhao escorted him back to his room, stood at the door and said in a low voice, "Your Highness should keep a low profile when you go out tomorrow, and you can't buy too many servants back."

Li Xu knew that he was kind enough to remind him, so he nodded with a smile, "I know about it, thank you Commander for reminding me."

After a good night's sleep, Li Xu woke up very refreshed in the morning, Liu Shu came in with a smile and said, "Lai San and the others are back."

Li Xu didn't see them until after washing up, and he didn't need to ask any more questions. Just by looking at their expressions, he knew that things were done well, so he generously asked Liu Shu to give each of them [-] yuan for hard work.

Liu Shu took out the money reluctantly, he didn't care about this kind of money before, but now they didn't get any income, and the money was less and less, so Liu Shu became stingy.

Lai San and the others hurriedly refused, saying: "It's not hard work, it's not a small thing, and there is no need for rewards." They follow King Shun without worrying about food and clothing, and work without being tired. There will be some subsidies, and there is no more comfortable work than this.

Liu Shu didn't know exactly what they did, and when they left, he asked Li Xu curiously: "Your Highness, what did you ask them to do?"

Li Xu said succinctly: "I didn't do anything, I just gave them a little punishment. The Wei family got some itch powder, and the Zhao family and the Du family soaked in the river all night."

Liu Shu didn't know the inside story, and said with emotion: "Your Highness is so kind, such a vile person, you can just kill them, and you still keep their lives."

Li Xu thought inwardly: I never thought that my level of consciousness is not as good as that of a young eunuch. I have lived for more than [-] years in vain.

But let him kill people because of a little friction, Li Xu still can't do such a thing, after all, he grew up in a peaceful and harmonious socialist country, and his thinking is still very correct.

But Liu Shu didn't know that although His Royal Highness Shun Wang didn't kill anyone, the effect was much better than killing people. After three days and three nights of torture, Mr. Wei's family was worse than death. In the past, because his aunt was favored, he was treated similarly to his son-in-law at home, but now he is crazy and detested by others, so there is no such thing as the past.

And the two from the Du family and the Zhao family were not just soaking in the water overnight. When they arrived at the flower boat, they knew that the news was fake. Ordinary, but the dance is excellent, a neon dress dance has attracted countless guests, and the sons of Du and Zhao's two families also want to take people into the house.

When encountering this kind of thing in the past, several people came in turn. The Wei family is powerful, and it is usually the Wei family who takes the lead, and the other two have no complaints. But today, when Wei Dalang is away, Zhao Kun and Du Sanlang don't want to be humble. The two of them were fighting with each other, they both wanted to be Hua Niang's first guest.

When the two were pushing and talking, one of them accidentally fell into the water at the same time. It was dark at that time, it rained for several days in Cangzhou, and the river was muddy. In the blink of an eye, the two of them disappeared.

The servants of the two families were terrified, and rushed into the water to search for the person. They searched all night but failed. They were so frightened that they wanted to kill themselves on the spot, otherwise they would die if they went back.

As a result, after dawn, some kind-hearted people sent back the two people who had fainted, saying that they had rescued the two people in the lower reaches of the river.

Everyone thought that these two people were lucky, but they didn't know that Lai San and the others guarded the lower reaches of the river all night before catching him.

From then on, the two turned against each other, and the boat of friendship was completely overturned. If they met each other, they would have to fight, and it was useless to persuade them.

Of course, these are nothing to Li Xu, he is not even interested in listening.
