The Best Fake Eunuch

"If you don't come, don't come. If you come, you will go crazy, and it will disturb the interest of us big guys." Xiao Chen also had nothing to do with this second lunatic.

But he never expected that what should come will always come...

Although it is not a banquet, there is still wine and meat, just four dishes and one soup, which is relatively simple.

It's a holiday, once a year.

A pot of bright red color and fragrant dishes is bacon sent by Zhao Gongming from Sichuan, a pot of hand-picked meat, a pot of cold bean sprouts, and a pot of cold cabbage shreds, and a large bowl in the middle is filled with mutton and carrots. soup.

Coupled with a few large pots of steaming dumplings stuffed with mutton and garlic sprouts, it looks very rich.

There is an extreme shortage of vegetables in Yanyun County, and they can grow some by themselves in summer, but in winter there will be nothing left.

Chinese cabbage is the only vegetable that can be stored in the cellar for the winter.

Carrots haven't been planted in large quantities in China yet, and this was brought by Wilson last time.

There is also sauerkraut. Almost every household in Yanyun County has a large pickle jar. Every autumn, a large amount of cabbage will be pickled and eaten in winter. This kind of sauerkraut is not afraid of freezing, so it can be eaten Eat until spring.

As for the potatoes and onions, these crops are not available in China yet.

The garlic sprouts are fresh, because they can be grown indoors. This kind of garlic sprouts are not the ones in the south. The correct name should be chives.

Bean sprouts come from soybeans and mung beans soaked in water. These two should be regarded as the only fresh vegetables that Yanyun County can eat in winter.

The dumplings were served, but everyone didn't move their chopsticks, they all looked at Xiao Chen together.

"Boss, don't you want to say a few words?" Ye Baiqing said.

"They're all my brothers, they hang out together every day, how can there be so much nonsense? They all eat and drink well." Xiao Chen paused and said, "But when I saw the dumplings, I suddenly remembered a saying, It’s more delicious than dumplings, more fun than…”

The complete original sentence is that it is better than dumplings, and more fun than sister-in-law.

But Xiao Chen felt it was inappropriate before he finished speaking, because there were two girls Xiangqin and Linger present here, and it seemed that it was not appropriate for him to make such vulgar jokes as the boss.

The two girls are fine, the main reason is that Qiu Ruolan is still sitting, and he always calls Dugulou Brother Hanzhong...

"What's more fun?" Everyone was quite curious.

"It's fun but making dumplings... Hurry up, big guy, it won't taste good when it gets cold later." Xiao Chen said.

"Hmph, thanks to the fact that you are still a scholar, you can say anything!" Baili Qingyun on the side suddenly sneered.

He knew this common saying, so when Xiao Chen said it, he was taken aback. Seeing that Xiao Chen said it halfway and then stopped, he felt it was funny again.

He was originally serious, but for some reason, Xiao Chen suddenly hit the point of laughter, and couldn't help laughing out loud.

Seeing that everyone was looking at him in surprise, he quickly replaced it with sneers and accusations to cover it up, otherwise he wouldn't have said that.

"Hush..." Xiao Chen winked at him and frowned, begging him not to say it, otherwise it would be really embarrassing.

"You boy, don't say good things!" Chen Jisheng couldn't help laughing suddenly, it turned out that he knew it too.

"Boss, I won't tell you if you rewarded me with a piece of gold." Ye Baiqing actually knew?

"I'll reward you with a mouthful!" Xiao Chen started to beat his heart, and quietly aimed at Dugulou, seeing his stunned face, he was relieved...

"Two days ago, I went to Shunfeng Port to do business. Fatty Peter asked me what happened to our shipyard? I told him that river boats are built for shipping in our territory. This guy is dubious." Ye Baiqing changed the subject.

"Didn't you take advantage of this conversation to test him?" Xiao Chen said.

The Bailong River enters the sea from Shunfeng Port, that is to say, river boats can be used for hundreds of miles from Shunfeng Port to the upstream of Bailong River. The cost of shipping is much lower than that of land transportation, and the transportation volume will be greatly increased.

But after the Ross people occupied the downwind port, they closed the entrance to the sea, and no ships in the upper reaches of the Bailong River were allowed to pass.

Xiao Chen and the others discussed to have a good talk with Governor Peter, and it would be best to persuade him to agree to open the shipping on the river, so that their gunboats and warships could go directly down the river and arrive at the downwind port.

"Well, I saw that he was suspicious, so I told him our plan. He naturally refused, but it seemed that there was still room for negotiation... To put it bluntly, I wanted money, but I also wanted money. I didn't dare to make any promises to him, because I was afraid that this guy would find out our intentions." Ye Baiqing said.

"Bai Qing is right. You just need to tell him about it. You must not take the initiative. It is best to let him come to us. This needs to be planned." Chen Jisheng said.

"It would be best for Peter to agree, otherwise it would be very difficult for our small boats to pass through their blockade. I have gone to see them. They have set up at least three forts on the bank of the river, and there are several medium-sized warships cruising in the river. We Small boats can deal with them in the bay, but they can't do it in the narrow river." Dugu said.

"Mr. Dugu, don't worry, when the time comes, I'll take Fei Yiwei over and set those forts on fire for you!" Not to mention that Duan Ling'er really has this strength.

In fact, most of the information obtained by Dugulou was obtained with the help of Flying Guards.

Dugulou was also very curious about this mysterious guard, how did you find these scuds back then, Miss Linger?

Didn't you say that staying with the boss is boring?

Do you want to consider bringing your people to join my navy?

Duan Linger directly refused.

The reason is that my subordinates' lightness kung fu is quite powerful, all of them are flying on grass, but not floating on water.

More than half of them are landlubbers, not to mention naval battles, they will get dizzy by boat.

The main reason is that Duan Linger herself gets seasick, otherwise maybe she would really consider...

"It's rare to get together during the holidays, so the big guys don't talk about business." Liu Xiangqin suggested, "It's snowing outside, why don't we use snow as the theme, and how about a poem for everyone?"

"Who can write poetry better than that person?" Ye Baiqing poked her lips and poked at Xiao Chen's back with her fingers.

"That's old man. I don't like this tone. If I do it seriously, I'm afraid it's a bit better than that guy." Chen Jisheng laughed.

"I can't compare to your old man in terms of other things, and in terms of poetry, hehe..." Xiao Chen raised his head high, openly provoking.

"Old man, come and suppress his arrogance!" Ye Baiqing said.

"This guy, I really look down on this old man!" Chen Jisheng stroked his beard and shook his head, "Then just make a prank, don't make fun of me."

"At the end of the year, the wind blows the land, and the night is cold and snowy. Where does the old man live? In front of the warm tent and the stove."

Chen Jisheng was also a Jinshi, and he was a member of the Hanlin Academy. For him, writing poetry is like pediatrics, and he can easily export it.

The big guys applauded together after hearing these words, Xiao Chen also nodded again and again, so old man, you really know how to compose poetry.
