Ang Lee's movements of frying bean sprouts were very skillful as if he had been specially trained. This made the few Xinluo maids who were watching from the side dumbfounded. Li Feishouyu and the others were so shocked that their jaws almost dropped. [Love ↑ Go △ Little ↑ Say △ w

"Big Brother is really an all-rounder! Not only can he lead troops to war, but he can also design vegetable greenhouses, bathrooms, flush toilets, and even frying vegetables. Is there anything Big Brother can't do? "
Li Kunxiong looked at Ang Lee with a very strange look. It was not the look of looking at a person at all, but a look of looking at a monster, and Ang Lee was the monster in front of him.
"I know, Big Brother definitely can't give birth to a child. Other than this, there's probably nothing Big Brother can't do."
Li Feiyu's eyes were not much better than Li Kunxiong's.
Li Feishouyu, Zhang Guangcheng, and Erniu were completely stunned. They looked at the bean sprouts on the plate like greedy children who saw delicious food. They could not wait to rush up and stuff the bean sprouts into their mouths.
The freshly fried bean sprouts emitted a mouth-watering aroma. Everyone in the room, including Ang Lee, swallowed unconsciously. The few Xinluo maids were also constantly inhaling with their noses. It seemed that inhaling the fragrance of the fried bean sprouts was also a kind of intoxicating enjoyment.
"The bean sprouts are done. Quickly bring a few pairs of chopsticks over."
Ang Lee placed a large plate of bean sprouts on the small kitchen table and ordered softly.
Xinluo maid Li Yuner gently turned around, took a bucket of chopsticks, and gently placed it on the table.
Ang Lee first picked up a pair of chopsticks, gently picked up a large piece of bean sprouts, and gently put it into his mouth to chew.
"Hmm, the taste is better than I imagined. You guys try it too!"
It was the first time Ang Lee had eaten fried bean sprouts since he came to the Tang dynasty. His whole mouth was filled with a delicious aroma, and he could not help but close his eyes to enjoy it.
"Let me try."
"Let me try it too."
Kun Xiong and the other four rushed over like hungry wolves. They picked up their chopsticks and stuffed a large piece of bean sprout into their mouths.
After finishing the first bite, the five of them looked very satisfied. Without thinking, they picked up their chopsticks again and ate the whole plate of bean sprouts at an extremely fast speed. Even the last bean sprout that had fallen on the table was picked up by Zhang Guangcheng with his hand.
Erniu Zhang was even more exaggerated. He picked up the empty plate and licked all the grease off the bottom of the plate. He didn't even bother to wash the dishes.
Looking at this group of useless brothers, Ang Lee smiled. This showed that his dish was well copied and was recognized by his brothers. However, Ang Lee only ate one bite, which made him very helpless.
"Look at how useless you guys were just now. Aren't you ashamed? I worked so hard to cook the dishes, and you guys snatched the rest after I took a bite."
Ang Lee said with a smile.
"It's Big Brother who copied it so well that we couldn't control ourselves as soon as we ate it. Hehe."
Ang Lee rolled his eyes at the five of them and asked, "Are you guys full?"
"How much is this? It's not even enough to fill the gaps between my teeth. General, why don't you cook another plate? No, cook a few more plates. "
Erniu Zhang asked with a smile.
Ang Lee also couldn't help but smile. He looked at the four Xinluo maids beside him and said, "Jiaren, Yun 'er, Zhihui, Xiuxian, each of you will cook a pot. Alang will be in charge. You guys cook."
"Yes, Alang."
The four Xinluo maids smiled and each of them carried a large plate of bean sprouts to the stove.
"You two come in and start the fire."
Ang Lee looked at the two male servants who were working at the door and asked them to come in and heat the pots.
Soon, the four iron pots were all heated up. Ang Lee ordered them to pour in vegetable oil, put in onion, ginger, pepper, add in bean sprouts, stir-fry, add salt, pour in soy sauce, stir-fry, and plate according to the heat.
Under Ang Lee's personal command, the four Xinluo maids quickly cooked four large plates of fresh bean sprouts. The taste was no worse than Ang Lee's. After all, these Xinluo maids were all professionally trained. They could learn such a simple technique as stir-frying bean sprouts just by watching it once. They could even surpass the master.
Fortunately, Ang Lee was not a chef. Otherwise, the four Xinluo maids would definitely steal his rice bowl.
"Big Brother, but this is still not enough!"
Ang Lee rolled his eyes and said, "What, you guys still want to eat your fill? I'm just letting you guys have a taste. You guys are still so excited. Forget it, each of you eat half a plate. The remaining plate is left here. "
The five of them laughed and divided two and a half plates. The remaining plate and a half was left for Ang Lee.
Ang Lee only needed to eat half a plate. He couldn't eat too much of any food. Otherwise, it would definitely not be good for his body. The remaining plate was naturally given to the four Xinluo maids who worked hard to cook.
"Beauty, Yun 'er, Wisdom, Xiuxian, this plate of bean sprouts was given to you by Ang. Quickly eat!"
Ang Lee had always been very tolerant and protective of women, no, young beauties.
The four Xinluo maids were stunned for a moment, then smiled and thanked Ang Lee. They shyly picked up their chopsticks and ate in small bites.
"Big Brother, these are all mung bean sprouts. Aren't there still soybean sprouts? I wonder how the soybean sprouts taste? "
Li Kunxiong was addicted to eating. He felt that it would be better to eat soybean sprouts after eating mung bean sprouts.
Would Ang Lee satisfy his request? Of course not. How could he let them eat too much at once? If he satisfied his subordinates with everything, how could he be a leader?
"Let's eat soybean sprouts at night! Haha! "
Ang Lee deliberately teased their appetite.
"Okay, then let's eat at night. Anyway, there are only a few hours left."
No one objected. Anyway, it was only a matter of a few hours. They could endure it and it would be over.
"Alang, the selection and asking for names have been completed. I have already found someone to calculate. Alang and Little Miss Ruyu's Eight Characters are a good match. The matchmaker has already gone to select Ji. Next, it's time to select the date. I wonder if Alang has any requests?"
Zhao Liu's efficiency was very fast. Soon, he pushed Liu Li to select the date.
"What do you mean by selecting the date?"
Ang Lee didn't know much about this. Even at this time, he still didn't deliberately understand.
"Alang, selecting the date is to send the betrothal gifts. Selecting the date is to confirm the date of the wedding."
Zhao Liu hurriedly explained.
Ang Lee understood and nodded. "I see. What do you suggest?"
Zhao Liu said, "Alang, you are a fifth-rank official of the imperial court. Of course, the betrothal gifts should be more. But it doesn't have to be too much to avoid violating the rules. In addition, New Year's Eve is a day of great luck. It's not impossible to use it as the date of the wedding."
"Well, okay. Go and ask uncle and Little Miss Ruyu. If they have no objections, then it's settled."
Ang Lee didn't care about these things at all. As long as he could marry Yan Ruyu, it was enough.
"Yes, Alang. I'll go and prepare."
"Go! Go! "
Zhao Liu strode out of the gate. However, as soon as he walked out of the gate, he came back.
"What's wrong? Why are you back?"
"Alang, someone from the palace is here."
As expected, a little eunuch came in.
"General Li, His Majesty will hold a banquet tomorrow morning. General Li must be there on time."
The little eunuch gave the order with a blank expression.
"Okay, I'll be there on time."
"That's good. I'll take my leave."
"Zhao Liu, see him out."
"Big Brother, His Majesty will hold a banquet tomorrow. Why did he only invite Big Brother? After all, we are generals of the Tang dynasty! "
Li Kunxiong didn't join the list of invitees. He complained in his heart.
Ang Lee smiled and said, "There are thousands of officials and generals in the capital. The palace hall is only so big. If you all go, there won't be a place for you to stand."
"Yes, who asked our ranks to be low?"
"It's not that our ranks are low. It's that we are overshadowed by General's glory. If we did something else, His Majesty would have noticed."
Zhang Guangcheng said with a smile.
Li An's brows furrowed, and he said with a focused gaze, "Looks like I've held up your future! Bean sprouts tonight? "
"Don't, General. I'm just joking. Don't take it seriously. We're definitely eating bean sprouts tonight."
Zhang Guangcheng hurried to explain.
"Big Brother, bean sprouts are so good. If we make more and sell them, we can make a lot of money."
"Yes! Big Brother, this is much more affordable than a rocking chair. In winter, there are basically no vegetables. Bean sprouts can definitely sell for a good price. "
Ang Lee nodded and said, "That's reasonable. However, bean sprouts haven't made a name for themselves yet. Tomorrow's banquet is a good opportunity. At that time, I'll serve bean sprouts to His Majesty and the officials' table. In this way, bean sprouts will become famous in less than a day. Everyone in Chang 'an will know about it. Naturally, we won't have to worry about sales."
"Big Brother, that's a good idea. Why don't you let me handle the bean sprouts business? I've recently recruited seven or eight servants and asked them to buy large quantities of soybeans and mung beans. We'll start distributing bean sprouts tonight and they'll be in the market in a few days. "
Li Kunxiong knew that Ang Lee was busy making rocking chairs and that there was limited space in the mansion. Thus, he wanted to take over this business.
Ang Lee smiled and said, "Okay! I can let you do it, but you'll have to give me thirty percent of the profits. Haha! "
"Big Brother, we're good friends! Thirty percent is definitely not a problem. I'll even give you all of it, haha! "
Li Kunxiong laughed heartily.
"Okay, it's settled then. However, leave it to the servants. Tell them not to spread rumors so that it won't affect your career."
"Big Brother, don't worry! There won't be any problems. "
Flying Feather and the others were quite envious. When they saw that Li Kunxiong had snatched the business of the bean sprouts, they hurriedly made a request to Li An. If there were any other business in the future, he definitely had to give it to them so that they could also enjoy the fun of making money. Of course, Li An readily agreed.
However, whether it was the rocking chairs or the bean sprouts, they were all temporary businesses that couldn't last for long. The technical content of these things was too low and would soon be imitated by many people. As a result, the profits would become very low or even directly lead to no profit.
Of course, Ang Lee's main purpose in coming to the Tang Dynasty was not to make money. Making money was just a kind of pleasure. Ang Lee's ultimate goal was to prevent the decline of the Great Tang Dynasty and prevent the common people from suffering the pain of war.
However, these things could only be done naturally. Many times, the operation of the current affairs did not change according to Ang Lee's will. For example, An Lushan, the traitor, still received the favor of Li Longji and obtained the power of a Provincial Governor.
Since the bean sprouts were going to be promoted to the banquet the next day, they must be prepared in advance. After all, Ang Lee couldn't bring the bean sprouts to the Imperial Palace to cook on the same day. Moreover, Ang Lee didn't want others to know that the bean sprouts were invented by him, let alone the method of frying bean sprouts.
"Jiaren, Yun 'er, come here."
Ang Lee called two Xinluo maidservants.
"Alang, do you have any orders?"
Ang Lee thought for a moment and said seriously, "Remember, the bean sprouts were invented by you, and the method of frying bean sprouts was also thought of by you. Do you understand?"
"This …"
The two seemed to be a little embarrassed.
"Your Alang is an official of the imperial court. If others know that I personally cook, I will be laughed at. Do you understand?"
"Yes, Alang, we understand. The bean sprouts were invented by us, and the frying bean sprouts were also discovered by us."
Yun 'er said cleverly.
"Alright, I'll teach you how to fry soybean sprouts now. The method is similar to frying mung bean sprouts. However, soybeans are a little harder to cook than mung beans, so the frying time is a little longer. Let's begin!"
Ang Lee personally instructed the beauties and Yun 'er to start frying soybean sprouts. After frying, he personally tasted it. The taste was really good.
"Not bad, it's cooked very well."
Ang Lee praised the two of them, then turned around and left the mansion, heading towards the Imperial Palace.
If he wanted to put the bean sprouts into the banquet, he had to make some preparations first. That was to let the imperial chef in the Imperial Kitchen in the Imperial Palace recognize this dish. Only in this way could the dish appear in front of all the ministers and the Emperor at the banquet, thus advertising the bean sprouts.
Although Ang Lee's rank was not high, after all, he had made a lot of contributions to the Tang dynasty. His reputation was still quite well-known. As long as Ang Lee wanted to see the imperial chef, it should not be difficult. He just needed to ask the little eunuch who went out to buy things to inform him. It was not a big deal to ask the Imperial Kitchen to send a little imperial chef to his house.
Walking out of the gate of the Imperial Palace, Ang Lee was in a good mood. Looking at the crowds coming and going, he had an indescribable excitement. Perhaps he had been bored at home for too long and suddenly liked the lively crowd.
"Oh, isn't this General Li? Are you going to the Imperial Palace? "
Yu Chaoen walked out of the Imperial Palace, followed by more than a dozen eunuchs and handymen, as well as several empty carriages.
"Envoy Yu, what a coincidence. You went out of the Imperial Palace in person. It must be His Majesty's order!"
Ang Lee saw that they were going to the market to buy things.
"Haha, no, tomorrow His Majesty will hold a banquet for all the ministers. There are a few things that I don't trust to give to these servants, so I went out in person. General Li is also invited tomorrow!"
"Thanks to His Majesty's kindness, I am honored to attend the banquet. However, my maid recently made a very delicious dish. If His Majesty and the ministers can taste it at the banquet tomorrow, His Majesty will be very happy. Therefore, I want to find an imperial chef to go to my house to learn how to make this dish so that His Majesty can taste it at the banquet tomorrow."
