After time travel, my best friend and I exchanged supplies and became a rich woman

It's dinner today.

The place where Song Ke and the others ate was a straw shed they built themselves after arriving at the old guardhouse.

Inside the thatched shed, there were several old long tables.

At this time, the old long table was already full of people.

The same dishes were placed on every long table.

A bowl of whole-grain rice, a bowl of fried winter melon, a bowl of cold wild vegetables, a plate of scrambled eggs, and a bowl of steamed sausages.

"Ah, the food today is very good!" Kong Jie, who had just sat down, grinned and said to Song Ke: "Boss, are you willing to risk everything today? We can actually afford eggs and sausages?!"

"The meat and vegetables are all given by my sister-in-law..." Chang Wu, who was sitting opposite, whispered, but he also knew how to save Song Ke's respect, "But the boss asked me to buy two shi of rice today. You can give me more today." Eat a bowl of rice.”

"Hehehehe," Kong Jie smiled flatteringly, "Then you have to thank the boss. Without the boss, there would be no sister-in-law. Without the sister-in-law, there would be no eggs and sausages, boss! You are such a good wife!"

"You have something to eat but you can't stop your mouth?" Song Ke picked up the chopsticks and glanced at Kong Jie lightly.

Kong Jie immediately made a move to sew his mouth shut, then leaned back and looked at Chen Dongyue at the table next to him.

At this time, Chen Dongyue happened to look at Kong Jie, so Kong Jie said to Chen Dongyue: "Thank you, sister-in-law, for adding food to us!"

"Eat yours!" Chen Dongyue was really annoyed with being called sister-in-law.

Listening to Chen Dongyue talking to Kong Jie, Song Ke also turned to look in Chen Dongyue's direction.

But at this time, Chen Dongyue's eyes had returned to the dining table in front of her, so Song Ke quickly put away his gaze, threw the chopsticks on the table twice, and said: "Let's eat."

As soon as they heard the word "dinner", everyone else at the table picked up the huge rice bowls and consciously poured rice into their own rice bowls.

The person serving the rice piled the bowl of rice as high as his own head, and then gave the rice spoon to the next person.

As for outsiders like Chen Dongyue, looking at the food in front of them, they felt somewhat sad.

"Song Ke's food seems to be similar to what we eat in the village." Song Bufan muttered in a low voice while adding food to everyone.

"This is not as good as those in our village," Qiao Sanmei was not disgusted, but puzzled, "We just do some handicrafts and farm work at home on weekdays, and eating some winter melon and cabbage is nothing, but Song Ke and the others Are you a person who wants to fight, and you don’t have any oil or water at all, so you can’t help but feel weak when you go into battle to kill the enemy?”

"Boss..." Song Haopo felt sorry for her eldest son now. She took two chopsticks of eggs in her bowl and wanted to pass them to her eldest son at the next table, "Boss... .Your wife just picked up these eggs, please eat more!"

"I have it," Song Ke turned sideways and replied, "Mom, you can eat it yourself, or share it with the children."

"Li Xiucai made pigeon soup for us." Jun Lan picked up a small bowl and showed it to Song Ke. "There are also ham and bacon in it. I eat eggs every day and I'm tired of them. You guys should eat them." Bar."

After saying that, Jun Lan put the soup bowl in front of him again, and then started to drink.

Tu Gen, Shui Hua Caitang and the others also got a bowl of pigeon soup each, so they all turned around and said that they didn't need to eat eggs. Anyway, like Jun Lan, they ate these eggs every day, so they didn't I don't think it's too strange.

Although Song Ke didn't show it on his face, he was a little surprised in his heart.

And this pigeon...his eyes caught Li Xiucai.

Li Xiucai nodded towards Song Ke with a painful look on his face.

Yes, that's right, it was his only remaining pigeon, which he had just stewed and eaten.

The most outrageous thing is...because the pigeon is small and has many children, as a cook, he only got a mouthful of soup to drink when he tasted the saltiness.

The taste is really delicious, and it is worthy of being an old pigeon he has raised for five years.

Cry to death.

Seeing Li Xiucai's tearless expression, Song Ke could only shake his head and sighed.

"Uh-huh-huh, sister-in-law is so awesome," Kong Jie stuffed his mouth full of food, not forgetting to blow a rainbow fart, "These days, I can still make eggs for my children every day!"

"Isn't that right?" Song Yang, who was holding a rice bowl and eating vegetable soup, was also full of pride, "The four chickens raised by my sister-in-law can lay twenty eggs every day even on the road.

And whenever we pass by the mountains and forests, my sister-in-law can get quail eggs, pigeon eggs, wild eggs, and wild duck eggs. "

"Yes, yes, yes," Da Dunzi, who was sitting at the third table, also held a bowl and squeezed in next to Song Yang, "Sister Dongyue can also pick wild fruits! The nacho fruits and plums we eat are from Dongyue. Sister found it on the road!"

"...Can I just eat quietly while eating?" Chen Dongyue said with a guilty conscience, "This is just a coincidence, what's so great about it?"

"Good luck is also a great thing!" Kong Jie was filling the second bowl of rice, but halfway through, he found that the pot for frying winter melon was empty.

So he simply put all the rice into the soup for stir-fried winter melon, then Xilihulu took a big mouthful, and then continued: "Since we arrived in Liaocheng, today is the first time we have eaten meat dishes! "

"Don't talk nonsense," Chang Wu still wanted to save Song Ke's respect, "When we went to Prince Kang's Mansion for the first time, didn't we eat meat once in Prince Kang's Mansion?"

"Okay, stop talking and eat quickly. You have to train after eating." Song Ke scolded in a deep voice.

The more I talk about it, the sadder it becomes.

Originally there was no comparison, so Song Ke didn't think their food was too bad, but now that there was a comparison, he felt more and more like he had indeed treated his men harshly.

But what can he do?

When he came out of the Northland, the military pay given by the army was only a hundred taels in total.

Originally, he thought that if he could fight quickly, a hundred taels of silver would be enough to last until the bandit suppression was over.

But when he arrived in Liaozhou, he discovered that suppressing bandits in Liaozhou was far more troublesome than he thought.

The garrison in Liaocheng had already been evacuated by the military when King Kang settled in Liaocheng.

Therefore, Song Ke could not mobilize soldiers to suppress the bandits.

The government office said it was willing to cooperate fully, but that was just lip service.

They didn't have many people at their disposal, so Song Ke asked them to borrow some people. As a result, more people died in the government office than they killed the gangsters.

Later he found out that the people assigned to him by the government were all temporarily captured from the city gate. They had only been trained for three or four days and did not know how to kill the enemy at all.

After that, he didn't dare to ask the government officials for anyone, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and ask to see Prince Kang.

Fortunately, although King Kang had no talent and was a bit timid, he was reprimanded by the emperor for causing too much banditry in the fiefdom, so he agreed to give Song Ke two hundred soldiers to mobilize.

No matter how many people there are, it will be difficult for Prince Kang’s Mansion to provide them.

After all, two hundred soldiers were considered illegal in the Great Rong Dynasty.

But the problem now is that the biggest bandit problem, the Tiger Gang, has tens of thousands of people, and Song Ke only has 200 soldiers. He doesn't know how to continue suppressing the bandits now.

At present, we can only start to suppress small gangs. What will happen next can only be taken step by step.

But the current situation involves a problem.

That's military pay.

Although Song Ke is not a particularly old-fashioned person, he also knows that going to the battlefield to kill enemies and suppress bandits can earn some "benefits" in private.

But the problem is that the people he brings are not his own people, but people from Prince Kang's Mansion!

When these people go back, they will report to King Kang how much property they have found from the gangsters.

And every time they suppressed bandits, they couldn't kill the enemy and steal money at the same time... Therefore, even though Song Ke and the others had suppressed bandits no less than five times since they came to Liaozhou, it was still very difficult. poverty.

In addition, the price of food in Liaocheng is ridiculously high, and now less than half of the one hundred taels of military pay is left.

If he doesn't save some money, Song Ke is afraid that the bandits will not be finished exterminating them by then, and they will starve to death here.

So don't even think about eating meat. Song Ke has done his best to be able to eat two meals a day.

..........

"It's not what I said," Song Changnian whispered to his brother after dinner, "Song Ke's group of people look more like fleeing famine than us."

"Indeed," Song Changyue was always his eldest brother's lackey, "we still had some leftovers from a jar of rice, but they actually didn't have enough to eat, and in the end they ate all the food we had left."

"I see that although Song Ke has been a minor official, what he has done...is not as profitable as Dongyue's business." Song Changnian concluded.

Song Changyue slapped his thigh, "Isn't that right? Let me tell you, brother, we made the right decision to follow Dongyue. Look, I gained some weight during our escape!"

"You two are almost done!" Song Bufan couldn't stand listening anymore, "Dongyue is gone, so you can stop acting."

"Ah? Are you leaving?" Song Changyue stretched out his head and glanced at Chen Dongyue's retreating back, then stood up and said, "Then I'm leaving too. I finally found a safe place to stay. Whatever I do today, You have to take a shower no matter what."

"No, I'll wash first!" Song Bufan had a good reason, "I heated the hot water, so I have to wash first."

"I don't care who heats the hot water!! I said it first, I'll wash it first!" After Song Changyue finished speaking, he quickly walked towards the main building.

"Me first!" Song Bufan chased after him without giving in, and even hit his leg with his hip axle.

Song Changyue also responded unceremoniously to Song Bufan.

The two walked and argued with each other all the way...

"Sick!" Song Changnian looked at the retreating figures of Song Bufan and his younger brother and cursed, "Both of them are stupid."
