Chapter 331 Trading fish for territory

Jiang Xinyan instructed Chu Lixiang and Song Mingjiang to give out bowls, and then pick dozens of strong men to share the fish head soup.

All the others stood or squatted to eat, all around the big iron pot. After drinking a bowl of fish soup, you can continue to take another bowl if you like to drink.

All the people want to eat after drinking a bowl of fish soup, and they want to eat braised fish pieces, although the fish soup is delicious.

However, the aroma of braised fish is more attractive, "If we hadn't seen it with our own eyes, there is only fish here, and I don't believe it's fish meat."

"Yeah! It's so fragrant and delicious, and the fish soup is white and delicious, who would have guessed it was made of fish!"

"This is the most delicious fish I have ever eaten in my life," said a soldier.

"I remember when you ate braised beef before, you said it was the best braised beef you've ever eaten in your life?"

"Said, what? Is there a problem?" The elite soldier asked with wide innocent eyes.

"Hey! It doesn't seem to be a problem, in fact, I also think it is the most delicious fish." Just saying this, it seems that we all lived in vain before.

Everyone burst into laughter, happy from the heart.

The King of Zhenbei sat opposite Chu Lixuan and his wife, "This is the most delicious fish this king has ever eaten. You catch so many fish, do you want to take some and sell them in the city?"

"This is the most delicious thing? Going back, I will make a whole fish feast for you to taste!" Jiang Xinyan said proudly.

"A whole fish feast? Could it be that the fish can make ten dishes?" Leng Yue asked in surprise.

Actually, the King of Zhenbei also wanted to ask. As a prince, with such an identity, he was too embarrassed to ask questions at will.

Therefore, Leng Yue dared to interject to ask the prince's heart.

Jiang Xinyan didn't know what to say when she heard that Leng Yue asked, so she had to popularize the whole fish feast with everyone.

The so-called feast, that is, after the feast, it is colorful, fragrant, and mouth-watering.

The main raw materials are fish, which are fresh, and the knives are fine and changeable.

Use the original soup to keep the original taste of the fish; pay attention to the beauty of the color and shape, and pay attention to the nutritional matching.

It has both a light and tender southern flavor, and a fresh, salty and spicy northern flavor, which is suitable for both young and old, and also makes young people love it.

Cold dishes - wishful fish rolls, Wuhu smoked fish, spicy fish skin, three-color fish cakes, crispy fish fillets, crystal fish jelly, shredded fish, cold fish shreds,

Hot dishes - braised water, angler fish balls, peony mandarin fish, crispy red carp, steamed sea bass, vinegar saury, fried shredded fish, marinated fresh mandarin fish, double-flavored fish maw.

"Wow! If this king is not eating fish now, I want to drool when I hear it, Yaner, what are you doing for a whole fish feast?"

Hearing King Zhenbei's impatient question, Jiang Xinyan was very proud. She thought that King Zhenbei would pretend to be forced, and she wanted to ask him again!

Chu Lixuan looked at her complacent appearance, her heart softened in a mess, "Let's do it tomorrow, I'm too tired today."

He thought, he must call someone else to do it tomorrow, he can't let her work like this.

"Tomorrow is fine, this king won't go back tonight." King Zhenbei stayed for the whole fish feast.

He has been very busy recently. Many things in the city have to be arranged by him, and the border barracks have to be rebuilt.

"This king's soldiers also learned to burn bricks before, and this king wants to rebuild the barracks."

Jiang Xinyan recalled that they went to the border last time, and what they saw was just the natural border of a big mountain with North Vietnam.

and other countries are also marked by natural entities as boundary markers, including rivers, lakes, mountains, etc.

They always think that the natural demarcation of national borders has the value of defense. In fact, it is very disadvantageous. The North Vietnamese are good at climbing mountains, and it is easier to attack by force.

"My lord, you can also build a city wall on the border! That way there are two layers of protection barriers, and it will take a lot of effort for North Vietnam to attack."

Chu Lixuan understood what his young wife was thinking, "It's better to build another trade city, not to focus on production, but mainly to trade goods in North Vietnam."

Jiang Xinyan heard Chu Lixuan say this, she glanced at the man in surprise, they didn't have time to discuss this matter.

It was only when she heard that King Zhenbei was going to burn bricks that she thought of building the city wall. She wanted to directly suggest it.

She looked at the man with admiration in her eyes: You are so awesome! One thing came to my mind.

Chu Lixuan: Weihu only knows what you think, and only speaks it out. Weihu is most afraid of others thinking about your ability.

pity! Jiang Xinyan didn't know how to read minds, and she didn't understand what Chu Lixuan meant. She thought it was the man who thought of it himself.

Continuing to worship him with venus eyes, which made Chu Lixuan sweet, but also a little embarrassed.

The King of Zhenbei was shocked, and it took a long time to say: "I knew earlier, Youzhou Prefecture chose you to do it."

Jiang Xinyan was blown away in an instant, this foolish prince, doesn't he know that the commander of Jinyiwei is here to track them down?

Chu Lixuan hurriedly held her hand and shook her head at her, "Your Highness has raised my eyebrows, I'm an outlaw now, and I'm not qualified!"

When the King of Zhenbei heard Chu Lixuan's words, it was as if someone had poured cold water on him.

It's not that he doesn't know, but he was too excited just now, so he forgot.

King Zhenbei told Chu Lixuan and the others that the information brought by the commander this time was that Nanman had already sent his credentials on the way.

At this time, the emperor should have received an envoy from the Nanman. It was the Lu family army on the southern border who privately sent troops to grab the food of the Nanman.

The agreement signed before is not counted, this time Dongchen breached the contract first, and he would either fight or pay the city and pay for the food.

After hearing this, Chu Lixuan's anger skyrocketed. That was the contract that their Chu family's military exchanged their lives for!

Jiang Xinyan glanced at Chu Lixuan worriedly, she was afraid that he would turn black, especially when she understood that his whole life was spent growing up in the battlefield at the southern border.

She held his big hand with her small hand and looked at him worriedly, Chu Lixuan instantly calmed down, that's all.

There is no longer his world, and it is not something he should worry about. His relatives have been exiled to this northern cold land.

Ha ha! This bitter cold place has also been brought alive by them, and their castle will be widened.

King Zhenbei is also very worried that if a war is waged on the southern border, there will be no more than 500,000 Lu family troops now.

The King of Zhenbei did not dare to tell Chu Lixuan that he lost nearly 100,000 elite soldiers in the last raid to grab food, and now the elite soldiers are less than 200,000, so they have no ability to resist.

Yazhou City is already an empty city. It is said that the bodies of the refugees who escaped from the famine were eaten by the Lu family army.

Chu Lixuan knew about these, he had seen it himself, and even rescued 30,000 Chu family troops!

"Your Highness, you just asked us if we sell fish. Does Your Highness have any money?" Chu Lixuan said in a low and cold voice.

"Silver? No! Didn't I get credit last time?" King Zhenbei was stunned.

"Then there's going to be a war in the south now, and the imperial court won't give you the military salaries. What will the lord give you in return?"
