Chapter 476: Meeting
While Daya and Erya were washing their faces, Qin Chuchu and Linglong took two large basins of sweet and sour sauce to the ice cellar.
After coming back, I washed my face with Daya and Erya.
The four people worked for a long time, their faces covered with batter, before they finally finished washing the large basin of noodles. They washed out half a basin of gluten alone.
Looking at the thick white paste in the basin, Linglong was confused.
"Princess, do we have to throw all this away?"
She pointed at the batter in the big basin with a look of heartache, thinking it would be a shame if it were all thrown away.
Seeing what the little girl was thinking, Qin Chuchu smiled.
"This is a treasure, how can you throw it away?"
After saying that, the two of them worked together to lift the large basin of batter and put it aside.
Then he asked Daya and Erya to light the stove. After the water boiled, he put the gluten on the steamer and steamed it first.
Next, Linglong and I started to prepare side dishes for the cold noodles. Since it was a spur-of-the-moment preparation, there was no kimchi.
I used kohlrabi instead, cut it into thin strips, and mixed it into a sweet and sour cold dish, using it to replace kimchi.
He also asked Linglong to go to the greenhouse to pick cucumbers and coriander. By the time everything was ready, it was already an hour later.
The next step is to make cold noodles and take out the previously boiled noodles.
He put it on the chopping board, took a large rolling pin, and rolled it down. His brows immediately frowned.
“Ouch!”
When he rolled the dough with the rolling pin, he not only failed to roll out the dough, but also almost hit his neck.
Looking at the hard dough in front of him, he cut it hard with a rolling pin.
It’s pretty damn hard!
I remember the last time I made it was when I was learning from the chef in the kitchen. I haven’t made it since then. After all, I can buy ready-made ones when I eat them on a regular basis.
Looking at such a large piece of hard dough in front of me, it is almost impossible to roll it out by myself. It seems that I need to find help.
"Linglong, go find your Uncle Feng Yi."
Feng Yi is the strongest person. If we want to roll such a big dough into a thin slice, it seems that he is the only one who can do it.
"Princess, Grandma said he has a meeting this afternoon. He seems to be very busy right now."
Linglong pointed in the direction behind her. She had heard her grandmother talk about this at noon.
"Meeting?" Qin Chuchu frowned.
He looked behind him in the direction of Linglong's finger, then looked at the big dough in front of him.
After a brief hesitation, he put a large basin on it.
"I'll go take a look too."
As she spoke, she washed her hands. Anyway, the dough was hard now, so it would be good to let it rest for a while.
Besides, the batter hasn't settled yet, so I could take this opportunity to take a walk.
As soon as he went out, he put on the big straw hat and ran straight to the back.
Now their workplace is not too far from their home, so there is no need to ride bicycles.
What's more, I couldn't ride it for fear that my straw hat would be blown away.
From a distance, I saw the princess running towards me wearing a big straw hat.
Feng Qi tactfully gave up his chair.
"Princess, please sit down."
"Yeah." Qin Chuchu nodded.
Just as she was about to sit next to the man, she found that her big straw hat was too much of a hindrance.
Looking at the man, I wonder why I need to wear a straw hat with him around!
He simply put the big straw hat on the straw hat on the man's head and then sat down.
“…………”Han Muchen.
He glared at Qin Chuchu with dissatisfaction, and really thought of himself as the umbrella holder.
But he just glared at her in dissatisfaction and did not take off the big straw hat on his head. He still willingly acted as an umbrella holder.
Qin Chuchu was very satisfied with the man's performance. Halfway through her laughter, she saw Feng Yi's loudspeaker was about to shout again, so she quickly covered her ears.
"Everyone, pay attention!"
Seeing how cunning the woman was, the man couldn't control himself and pinched her nose again.
Although they were not scared this time, Feng Qi and Feng Liu still twitched their lips.
“…………”
Can't this guy be a little quieter? It's deafening.
Feng Yi doesn't care about that. He has something important to discuss today.
After glancing at Feng Qi and the others, he looked at the people in front of him who were looking at him eagerly.
“As of today, all family members have arrived, and the greenhouse and yard where you live have been completely dug out.
Then we will gradually get on the right track. First of all, let's talk about joining the army. If there are any young men between the ages of twelve and twenty-five in your family who want to join the army, please go to Liu Guanjia to sign up later.
You can receive three taels of silver as salary every month. After you finish digging these greenhouses, you can start training."
As soon as the words fell, the crowd of millions suddenly became excited. Some were whispering to each other, some were happy, and some could not control their emotions and shouted out loud.
"I want to join the army!"
"I want to join the army too!"
The young and strong men in the crowd kept raising their hands and were extremely excited.
I have always envied my eldest brother who was able to join the army and earn so much money. Now that I have this opportunity, how could I let it go?
The elders in the family were also very happy. They felt proud that their son could serve as a soldier under the prince. Not only that, he also had a generous income, which was something hard to find even with a lantern.
Seeing everyone so excited, Feng Yi nodded in satisfaction, pressed his hand down again, and the crowd immediately quieted down.
"Okay, then you can go to Butler Liu to register later, and then we can talk about the next thing."
He looked at the older and stronger men in the crowd.
"There's work for those who are too old to be soldiers."
After saying that, he pointed in the direction of the distant mountains.
"See? That's the border between Dayu, Beihan, and Nanshu."
Everyone looked in the direction of his finger, towards the distant mountains, and nodded.
"I saw it."
"The prince plans to build a high wall over there to prevent foreign attacks. Anyone who joins the construction team will receive a monthly salary of one or two taels of silver. You can also sign up with Butler Liu later."
After hearing this, the older men immediately raised their hands.
"I'll join!"
"I'm joining in too!"
"All three of our brothers are participating!"
The crowd became noisy again. They thought that at their age they could only grow greenhouses at home, but they didn't expect there would be such a good opportunity.
Nowadays, a strong laborer can only earn more than 600 coins a month, which is not something that everyone can do.
Now, the prince gave me one tael of silver a month. Although it is not as good as the three taels of silver a month that others get, it is also a rare opportunity.
After all, soldiers are in danger of sacrifice at any time, so it is normal for them to have high salaries.
Qin Chuchu originally came to watch the fun, but after hearing Feng Yi's words, she felt quite surprised and stared at the man with burning eyes.
“…………”
I didn't expect that this man wanted to build a wall on the border. Isn't that the Great Wall of the previous life? That would be a huge project.
But the safety factor is indeed high, and it will not be so easy for those bad guys to invade.
Noticing the woman's burning gaze on him, the man curled his lips slightly and turned his head.
"Have you seen enough?"
