The next day, just dawn, Chen Xu was awakened by the noisy sound outside in a daze. He called the guards to ask, and immediately got up with a wry smile and washed up. The water was soft and the Ying Shiman Meng Wan and Yu Ji had already gotten up and dressed up.

"Husband is tired for days, why don't you sleep for a while?" The three wives personally served the washing and gently twisted the facial towel for him.

"I'm afraid that the whole Guangling knows that we are here, so how can we sleep? Today I'll go to the silk factory to provide guidance. You'll rest in the restaurant or play in the city. When I'm in Wuzhong, I'll have fun with you for a few days!"

"What's so fun about Guangling County? There are not many business houses in Quyuan and restaurants are not fun. We also want to follow our husband to the silk factory to see how our husband prepares delicious food for those weaving ladies!" Meng Wan said next to us.

"You have eaten all the canteen food yesterday, and it is really hard to swallow. If you eat this kind of meal every day for a long time, you may not be in the mood to weave cloth. However, the big pot rice will not be too delicious. If you go and see it, you may not be able to eat it even more. Although Guangling is not big, there are many rivers and lakes here. If you don't want to play in the city, you can ask the guards to escort the rivers and lakes outside the city to row and play. When you come back in the evening, I will make you a simple and delicious food!" Chen Xu said with a smile while wiping his face.

"Dad, what delicious food, Xier needs to eat~"

Just as Chen Xu was talking, a group of maids served several daughters and came to pay their respects after washing and dressing up. Chen Xi ran in in a gauze skirt and heard the words delicious food, so she pulled Chen Xu's clothes and shook them hard.

"Dad is going to the silk factory to make delicious food. Do you want to go?" Chen Xu turned around and squatted down and said with a smile.

"Dad lied to me, Xi'er didn't go, the food in the cafeteria was not delicious, I want to eat fried river shrimps and big crabs!" Chen Xi immediately let go and hid behind Ying Shiman and shook her head like a rattle.

"Hehe, husband, don't lie to Xi'er. There are many gentry, famous scholars and countless people from Guangling coming outside the hotel. When you meet, you may not be able to catch up with the lunch in the Silk Factory!" Ying Shiman smiled and helped Chen Xu tidy up his clothes.

Yesterday, Chen Xu and his family came to Guangling secretly. After inspecting the silk factory, hundreds of employees came home from get off work. Soon, the incident of Qinghe Hou and his three concubines and three daughters having arrived in Guangling spread throughout the city like a tornado, and even quickly expanded to nearby towns. Therefore, before dawn today, a large number of people and gentry and celebrities flocked to the hotel where they were staying to wait for viewing and visit the legendary Qinghe Hou.

Chen Xu traveled to more than 100 counties in the south. This kind of thing is no longer surprising. Although it will block the travel itinerary and the interest of traveling, he can intuitively understand the local customs and development in this way.

As the saying goes, hearing is false and seeing is true. Most of the newspapers and court documents are reported by good news but not bad news. The Qin Dynasty has just entered the fast lane of development. While the economy is booming, there must be many problems. The sufferings of the people cannot be understood in all aspects. What's more, the people of the Qin Dynasty inherited the barbaric and martial arts habits left over from the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. Fighting and fighting are common. There are many gangsters and idle men. With the development of all walks of life, bullying and dominating the market is naturally inevitable. Chen Xu has heard of many along the way and has also strictly ordered officials from all over the country to increase their punishment.

But no matter what, these dark sides are not the mainstream and cannot stop the rapid development of the Qin Dynasty. Moreover, after a severe crackdown and the Xiang family's rebellion, the folk customs in the southeastern counties have undergone earth-shaking changes, and there has been almost no news about blatant robbery and plundering.

Before Chen Xu got up, a group of officials of grades, including Guangling County Magistrate and County Magistrate, were already waiting in the hotel lobby. Following him was a group of middle-aged and elderly men of varying ages, with different costumes and dresses, including alchemists wearing Taoist robes, Confucian scholars with goose crowns and wide robes, sorcerers with masquerades, merchants with big belly and handsome clothes, and nobles with handsome clothes. These people are all famous people in Guangling and are famous in all walks of life. When they learned that Qinghe Hou had arrived in Guangling secretly, they couldn't help but follow the county magistrate and County Magistrate to visit the hotel and open their eyes and make their faces familiar.

If they were in Xianyang, they would never be able to get their status. It would be more difficult to visit Qinghe Hou than to climb the sky.

But today, in Guangling, a remote small county town, they are definitely a group of high-end existences and well-known figures.

After Chen Xu accompanied his family to have a simple breakfast in the hotel restaurant, he brought a few guards to the restaurant lobby to meet these local celebrities.

After some recommendation and greetings, everyone carefully accompanied Chen Xu to have tea and chat. The content was everywhere. What a group of celebrities said was naturally the changes in Guangling and the new and old folk stories. Chen Xu was knowledgeable and knew about two thousand years and two thousand years. He was also a disciple of Taiyi Immortal Lord. He had to teach three heavenly books in his dreams. Therefore, his words were profound and funny. After chatting for about an hour, Chen Xu served tea and saw guests off. After a group of famous scholars left, Chen Xu walked out of the hotel. At this time, the street outside the door was already crowded, and 20,000 to 30,000 people from Guangling County and nearby towns came to watch.

Faced with this situation, Chen Xu naturally had to be close to the people, inquire about changes and needs in food, clothing, housing and use, and also specially met with several gray-haired elderly people to celebrate their longevity. He also gave some small gifts such as enamel tableware and tea cups from Xianyang, showing the fish and water feelings of the people of the Qin Zuoxiang. The people who came also had countless farmers, fishermen, couples, and women, with chickens, ducks, fish, turtles, dried fruits and malt sugar to be squeezed up to offer sacrifices. The common reason was that yesterday I heard that the little master was so unpalatable when eating in the canteen of the silk factory. These were all given to the little master as snacks.

As a native of Guangling, this person is a bit embarrassed.

In addition to cursing a group of officials in the Silk Factory, many people wanted to send some food and ingredients that they could show off to express their feelings, so as not to get the news to spread. From then on, the people of Guangling could not raise their heads in the entire Qin Dynasty.

Faced with these enthusiastic people, Chen Xu tried hard to thank the refusal, but he still couldn't refuse and could only call the hotel manager with a wry smile to take it into the kitchen to make other arrangements. After the noisy crowd was evacuated, it was almost time.

"Let's go, go to the silk factory!" Chen Xu was also a little anxious. Yesterday he promised to make a delicious meal for Weaver Girl. As a famous left prime minister, he must not break his promise and be fat, otherwise his character will be downgraded.

When Chen Xu rode directly to the silk factory under the escort of a group of guards, a group of senior executives were already blowing outside the factory gate under the scorching sun.

"Goodbye to the marquis!" A group of people rushed up to salute and greet him.

"No gifts are not allowed, go to the canteen first. Have you prepared all the ingredients that the Japanese Marquis asked for yesterday..." Chen Xu threw the reins to the guard after dismounting, and took the lead in walking towards the canteen without having time to greet him.

"Don't worry, 100 kilograms of fresh river shrimp, 200 kilograms of clean silkworm pupa, and onion, ginger, garlic, mustard flour, etc. are all prepared..."

"That's good. I'm reminding all canteen employees to keep this confidential for the time being, so as not to scare the weaver girl later!"

"Hehe, the official has already given instructions in advance, and the canteen staff will definitely not talk nonsense..." The canteen manager smiled and nodded quickly.

"You are so gloating. After a while, you will be the first to taste the taste..." Chen Xu said as he walked.

"Ah?!" The canteen manager instantly turned his face like bitter gourd.

Accompanied by a group of senior officials, Chen Xu hurried to the cafeteria and went straight to the kitchen. At this time, all kinds of ingredients in the cafeteria were ready, corn and rice had been steamed, and the big bone lotus soup had been stewed. The whole kitchen was steaming. As soon as Chen Xu walked in, sweat beads emerged from the pores all over his body.

More than 20 chefs and helping chefs were all in line to greet each other in neatly-equipped chef clothes and hats. The kitchen pots, pans, chopping boards and utensils were all neatly arranged, and the knives were polished and shiny and hung on the desk and knife holder. Everything was well organized and looked like a five-star hotel kitchen in later generations.

"Greetings to the Marquis!" Seeing Chen Xu come in, all the chefs and chefs saluted in unison.

"No gifts, please take the chef's hood to help me put on!"

Chen Xu didn't have time to say hello, so he took off his sweaty brocade robe and threw it to a guard. Then, with the help of the two cooks, he quickly put on a brand new coat and put on a white hat. Then, washed his hands and watched the ingredients prepared, and then ordered all the chefs to prepare for the action.

It’s easy to say that river shrimps are the kind of transparent shrimps that are not inch long. This shrimp grows in places where rivers and lakes are abundant in water and grass, and feeds on plankton. In this era when there is almost no industrial pollution or domestic wastewater pollution, these river shrimps are very clean, and they look crystal clear. They are still jumping from the water. If you are hungry, you won’t have much problem eating raw.

Yesterday, in order to make up for the poor canteen meals from her eldest daughter and a group of wives and concubines, Chen Xu took them to a picnic by the nearby small lake. This transparent small river shrimp was stir-fried and added with seasonings such as green onions, peppers, salt and other seasonings. It was extremely delicious. It can be used as a dish and as a snack. It is red in color and crispy in the taste. It is indeed a rare delicacy.

The most important thing is that this kind of shrimp is very cheap, and locals basically don’t eat it because dry-fried fish and shrimp require meat oil and vegetable oil. Although the grain output of Daqin is getting more and more one year, and the supply of pigs, mutton and beef on the market is also increasing, overall, it still cannot meet the demand. Although sesame has been promoted nationwide on a large scale and is grown in the southeast and northwest, the yield per mu is too low. At present, it cannot guarantee that every household can eat it. Therefore, although this river shrimp is delicious in Chen Xu’s opinion, the locals usually use shrimp cages and bamboo nets to pick up some shrimp cages and bamboo nets, which are mainly sold to restaurants in the city for wine. Without the cooking of oil, salt, sauce and vinegar, river shrimp is not as delicious as steamed buns.

"Drain these river shrimps and stir-fry them in the pot. After they turn red, they will be cleaned and all the spirals and debris inside will be used..."

"These silkworm pupae are also washed and drained with warm water..."

"Take thirty kilograms of flour, add chopped green onion, pepper powder, mustard and salt to make a large bucket of noodles sauce for later use..."

"Ten pounds of lard are put into the pot and heated..."

"Prepare twenty pounds of vegetarian oil, and prepare to heat up a few big pots..."
