"Wow, it smells so good! How delicious did my husband make today?"

Yu Wuya shouted and walked in from outside. Looking at the people crowded with the kitchen, Chen Jiang was there, and his expression became much calmer. After bowing to Chen Jiang, he couldn't wait to walk to the edge of the pot, stretched out his hand and uncovered the lid. Then he looked at the pot of snails with long shells, and couldn't help but twitch his face a few times, but he still couldn't stand the strong tempting fragrance. Gudong swallowed his saliva and said, "My benefactor, can you eat it?"

"Cover and cover, wait until the soup is dried and you can eat it!" Chen Xu pressed the lid of the pot with a dark face.

"I think it's cooked when I smell such a strange fragrance!" The moment the lid of the pot was closed, Yu Wuya quickly grabbed it inside, and pinched out a snail, and threw it into his mouth regardless of whether it was hot or not, then opened his teeth and prepared to bite it.

"Don't bite~" Chen Xu, with a black head, quickly spoke out to stop him.

"Crack~" Yu Wuya's mouth made a clear broken sound, and then he opened his mouth half open and looked at Chen Xu with a depressed face and said vaguely: "Why didn't you say it earlier? I've bitten it!"

"You can't bite it by eating snails!" Chen Xu said with a dark face.

"How to eat without biting it? Do you have to swallow it whole? It's a bit difficult... But... hiss~ It tastes really good, but the shell is too hard..." Yu Wuya kept nodding while sucking saliva, obviously very satisfied with the taste of the spicy snail. After saying that, his neck choked and prepared to swallow the snail.

"Don't swallow~" Chen Xu's face was so dark that ink was almost dripping from it.

Yu Wuya:...

"Puff~" Yu Wuya opened his mouth and spitted the bitten snail in his palm, and said in confusion: "My benefactor, this snail is not allowed to be bitten or swallowed, how should I eat it?"

"Go and help me get the toothpick!" Chen Xu said to a little maid.

"Yes, Marquis!" The little maid ran out of the kitchen quickly. After two or three minutes of speaking, Chen Xu uncovered the lid of the pot again and found that the soup had almost dried up. So he ordered annealing and put all the snails in a pottery pot.

As the snails were out of the pot, a rich aroma of braised flavour with onions, ginger, garlic, canola, pepper and sauce aroma spread in the kitchen.

"Gudong~~"

There was a sound of swallowing sound inside and outside the kitchen almost at the same time.

Although this dish looks very scary, it is indeed fascinating to the taste. Even some timid little maids can't help but swallow their saliva.

"Mr. Marquis, the toothpick you want!" The little maid returned and quickly handed a small bamboo tube to Chen Xu. Chen Xu twisted the bamboo tube cover and turned it half a circle and shook it down gently, and a bamboo toothpick fell on his hand.

In front of everyone, Chen Xu poked a toothpick and picked up a snail and put it in his mouth and took a sip. Suddenly, a rich sauce sucked into his mouth.

"Well, the taste is good!" Chen Xu felt the taste of the sauce. Although it was not as spicy as the snails that were eaten in later generations, it was much more delicious. Chen Xu thought about it and probably had many reasons, such as the water quality, the freshness of the ingredients, and the freshness of the snails, which were fresh snails that had been raised for a day, were probably not very fresh in later generations.

Seeing Chen Xu taking a sip of the soup and getting drunk, the two little girls couldn't help but jumped up and shouted as if they were holding his arm in a hurry.

"Brother, I want to eat, I want to eat!"

"Brother Xu, Yu Ji also wants to eat snails!"

"Wait, don't worry, I'll show you how to eat delicious snails!" Chen Xu quickly took the snails that had sucked the soup in his hand, and used a toothpick to put them into the shell and picked them up. The snail meat was picked out from the spiral shell, and then sent into Chen Xu's mouth. In one bite, it had a slight elasticity and the taste of fresh spicy and perilla sauce that exploded in his mouth. Suddenly, a more delicious taste than the soup just now, which made the little marquis couldn't help but exclaim again: "Huh~ delicious~~~"

"See, this is how snails are eaten!" Chen Xu threw the empty shell on the ground, then added a finger and looked at Yu Wuya and said.

Yu Wuya's handsome face shook slightly, and then he quickly picked up a toothpick and poked a snail.

Chen Xu gave Yu Ji and Xing'er a toothpick. The two little girls poked one into each of them, so they took a sip of the soup as if Chen Xu, and then picked out the meat inside and put it in their mouths.

"Wow, it's delicious, so delicious!" Xing'er jumped and threw the shell and poked it up again. With a slap, Xing'er quickly ate another one.

"Sister Xing'er, please slow down, leave a few more for me!" Yu Ji's eating slower, far less than Xing'er's ease. Xing'er had eaten three of them. Yu Ji was still picking the first one, and her face turned weak.

Chen Xu took out two pottery bowls and filled a bowl for Xing'er and Yu Ji, and asked the two little maids to take them to the restaurant to eat.

"Did you see what I did just now?"

"See!" Several chefs and chefs nodded vigorously.

"You have carefully prepared the rest and distributed it to everyone. Remember to cook it. By the way, remember to leave some for me!" After Chen Xu finished his order, he held the pottery pot with the snails and said to Chen Jiang, "Mom, let's go to the restaurant to eat too!"

Seeing Yu Wuya and Chen Xu accompany Chen Jiangshi and a few maids away from the kitchen, a warm cheer suddenly sounded in the kitchen, and various urging sounds kept ringing, several helpers helped to pick up snails, some helped to wash the pots and dishes, and some helped to clean the onions, ginger and garlic. The whole kitchen became lively soon.

In the restaurant, there was a bowl of snails in front of each of the two little girls. The toothpicks in their hands were dancing very fast, especially Xing'er, which slammed one by one. The food was so fast that Chen Xu was amazed. Yu Wuya and Chen Xu were holding toothpicks and eating them was much more elegant. They picked up one to suck the taste slowly, and then picked out the meat and sucked the empty shell after eating the meat, striving to completely eat the delicious snails into white flavor without leaving any regrets.

Chen Jiangshi and Shui Qingrou refused to eat this spicy snail at first, but they couldn't help but look at the two little girls and Yu Wuya and Chen Xu, so they couldn't help but tempt and taste one, and then... there was nothing. The whole family happily ate this delicious shell around a table. There was a constant sound of slapping sound in the room, and soon there were many empty shells piled up on the table.

Chen Xu ate more than a dozen times, and then felt that his yearning for the beautiful spicy snails had been somewhat satisfied, so he said to several little maids who kept swallowing: "You all come and eat a few first, and the kitchen will be delivered later!"

"Thank you, Marquis!" Several little maids immediately smiled and picked up a toothpick and picked a snail and savored it carefully.

"Actually, these snails need to be cooled to taste good!" Chen Xu said while eating slowly.

"Is there a difference?" Yu Wuya asked in confusion.

"Well, the soup is more delicious after it is cold, and the meat is more vigorous and elastic. If you can still drink some cold beer, it will be so comfortable that you can't extricate yourself!" Chen Xu shook his head and said in a panic.

"My bet, what kind of beer are you talking about? I feel itchy when will it be made?" Yu Wuya also said with a longing face.

"The production method is not too difficult, but it requires something called hops. It seems that we don't have one in the Central Plains!" Chen Xu was quite regretful.

"Why don't we have many delicious things in the Central Plains? We don't have the crayfish you mentioned last time either!" Yu Wuya was even more regretful.

"Actually, our Central Plains is very small. Apart from the Central Plains, the world is larger than you imagined. You have seen the Mountains and Seas. There are many places and strange animals depicted on it. Hops are said to be available in the Western Regions, but the road is far away and there are deserts everywhere. Even caravans rarely go there!" Chen Xu shook his head and said.

"By the way, benefactor, when will the fairy brew Erguotou you originally said be able to make? It's almost two years!" Speaking of beer, Yu Wuya instantly thought of another kind of wine that Chen Xu told him.

"With the iron pot now, you can try to brew Erguotou. After the autumn grain is harvested, you need to use millet to brew Erguotou..."

As I ate and chatted, I soon ate a few kilograms of snails. Chen Xu felt much better, so he returned to the study and picked up the compass ruler and graphite strips again to start drawing the style of coins. Half an hour later, looking at the four different patterns of the two sides of the drawn coins, one, five, ten, and fifty coins, Chen Xu put away the drawings and took the bus to the Academy of Sciences.

Although the sketch has been designed, to put it into practice and become a true model, it is necessary to conduct repeated experiments by craftsmen who are proficient in carving and casting. After all, the weight of the copper used in each type of copper coin has strict requirements, and the patterns must be as clear and beautiful as possible. The simple and ugly thing is not reflected in your level as a disciple of the immortal.

Chen Xu was busy at the Academy of Sciences for a whole morning and finally got the design of the new coins with several craftsmen. Then he arranged for craftsmen to take the drawings and samples to go to the factory outside the city to ask Gongshusheng and Magen to arrange people to pour the money out of steel as soon as possible, and also drew a simple manual stamping equipment to let Gongshusheng make it together to see the effect.

Qian Fan and Chen Xu had seen it before. They were made of clay and divided into two halves. A few copper coins were carved on a ceramic plate and a few ceramic plates were engraved on the back of the coins. First, the two pieces of ceramic molds were combined together, and then the melted copper juice was poured in through the small holes. After the copper juice solidified, the pottery mold was opened and poured out several new copper coins together. The workers hand-divided the copper coins and then cooled them down and simply polished the burrs on the edges.

This method is extremely primitive, not only slow but also dangerous. The hot copper juice and copper coins often burn the casting workers. It is very simple to make a simple manual stamping equipment. Both sides of the coin are cast with steel, and then fixed on the stamping equipment. Put a very thin, soft copper skin on it and press the push rod hard. After the coin is impacted, a coin will be minted. If you want to design more exquisitely, you can also set up a horizontal conveying device. Each time the coin is pressed, the coin below moves one square to the front, and the cast copper coins will automatically fall out and fall into the water to cool down.

Of course, these are Chen Xu's ideas, and they also told several craftsmen of the Academy of Sciences. As for what they can do, they can only look at Gongshu Sheng, Ma Gan and the level of factory craftsmen.
