Chapter 112
Beauty can also be eaten (second update)
Author: Cambrian
Ping Qiong sucked the honey orange juice on her fingers and said regretfully: "...If you really want to do it, you need special equipment."
Li Fu looked at Ye Shijie and said with a smile: "What do you think, Captain Ye?"
Ye Shijie took a bite of the fried dough sticks, chewed them for a while, and then said: "...That's right, forget it."
Xia Chujian was thinking in his mind.
It was not that she had never thought about finding an opportunity to kill Fan Chengcai, but the man returned to Dafu County and her aunt recovered from illness. She was not able to move freely and could not think of a way for a while.
Now that there is such a condition as the hunting list, she should be able to take advantage of it...
But she didn't want to drag her teammates down.
She wants to act alone.
By the way, I can earn some extra money and buy a good house in the next district so that my aunt can live more comfortably.
You can also buy red wine, skin care products that your aunt likes, and things that she once loved but couldn't get.
Xia Chujian thought to himself, with a look of regret on his face, and sighed, "Maybe Fan Chengcai's life should not be cut off. What do you think is the intention of the person who posted this mission on the kill list?"
The other four people looked at each other, not knowing how to answer this question.
Xia Chujian added: "If he knows it himself, then he will definitely hire more bodyguards for himself and be more cautious when entering and exiting. So, this hunting list mission is actually helping him, right?"
"It's not clear whether the person who issued the mission hates Fan Chengcai or is deliberately protecting him..."
Everyone looked at each other.
Only Li Fu muttered: "Protection shouldn't be enough... no matter how low the bounty is, it's still a hunting list mission, and it will cost people's lives."
See you silently at the beginning of summer.
Of course she knew, she just said that on purpose to dissuade her teammates from taking the mission.
…
At this time, inside the Fan family's mansion in Dafu County, Fan Chengcai, who had been comfortably cultivating himself, was furious.
"Who?! Who is buying the lives of labor and capital! - The lives of labor and capital are only worth two million?! Isn't this insulting?!"
"Second Young Master, think on the bright side. If the bid is so low and the risk is so high, there won't be any powerful bounty hunters to take over the mission, right? This is to protect you..."
Fan Cheng, who was furious, calmed down slightly after hearing these words, but he was still angry.
He slowly walked back to the couch in front of the French window and sat down.
Outside the window, the remaining light of the setting sun casts light on the green pines and bamboos.
Outside the house is an open-air swimming pool surrounded by green pines and bamboos, with automatic geothermal heating.
The white mist on the blue swimming pool is like a fairyland.
Seeing such beautiful scenery, the anger in Fan Chengcai's heart completely dissipated.
He snorted, picked up a glass of highly crafted liquor, sipped it slowly, and said slowly: "Let's find out who wants to kill labor!"
"...Second Young Master, the tasks on the hunting list have been reviewed by the Department of Justice. Our people have not yet entered the Department of Justice..."
Fan Chengcai drank up the rest of the liquor in one gulp and threw away the empty stoneware wine glass in his hand with a clang.
The priceless stoneware wine glass shattered on the hard floor.
He smiled evilly and said: "Then our next target is the Department of Justice! - Get me the Director of the Department of Corrections, I want to talk to him!"
He is only the deputy director of Dafu County's Punishment Department, but the way he speaks at this moment seems to be not the director's deputy, but the director's father.
His subordinates didn't think anything was wrong and immediately sent a message to the Director of the Department of Corrections, asking him to come to Fan Mansion as soon as possible.
The Director of the Department of Corrections, who used to run very fast when called upon, was uncharacteristically different this time.
He did not come over immediately, but just sent back a message saying that he was dealing with inquiries from the Information Department of the Special Security Bureau and did not have time to come to the Fan Mansion for the time being. He would come to say hello to the head of the Fan family when he was done.
When Fan Chengcai's men saw this news, they felt something was wrong.
He secretly glanced at Fan Chengcai and whispered: "Second Young Master, the director said that he is dealing with a task assigned by the Special Security Bureau and cannot come for the time being..."
The words I said later about greeting the head of the Fan family are directly embarrassing to Fan Chengcai. It means that I am your equal, so don't pretend to be an elephant.
But even if he didn't say these last words, Fan Chengcai still couldn't bear it.
He controls the wind and rain on Guiyuan Star and has long been accustomed to being the little emperor here.
Fan Chengcai stood up and said proudly: "If he doesn't come now, he will never come again in the rest of his life! The director of the Punishment Department can be replaced by someone else! Does he think he is irreplaceable?! - On this planet Guiyuan
, who have I, Fan Chengcai, been afraid of?!"
…
Xia Yuanfang's lunch is ready.
Because the teammates she met at the beginning of Xia arrived in a hurry, she didn't prepare much. She only used homemade pork and beef bought from a nearby fresh food supermarket and made a few home-cooked dishes.
A braised pork dish, a braised beef dish, green leafy vegetables with garlic paste, and a fruit platter.
Although there are not many varieties of dishes, the portions are large.
I made four bowls of braised pork alone.
Beef stew, there are two large casseroles.
Less green leafy vegetables with garlic paste, only one plate.
There are two fruit platters, one at the end of the table.
The teammates helped set up the dishes. At first, they were still polite and expressed their gratitude to Xia Yuanfang one after another, saying "Aunt Xia, Aunt Xia", not to mention being affectionate.
But as soon as they started eating, they were immediately conquered by the delicious food that they had never tasted before.
They have eaten pork, and even wild rhino pig with excellent black truffle meat, but they have never tasted such delicious braised pork!
And this meat is just ordinary farmed pork.
They have also eaten beef, even unicorn beef, which is suspected to enhance mental strength, but compared with the current beef stew, unicorn beef can only be regarded as tasteless.
The most important thing is that this ordinary home-cooked dish actually tastes different to everyone.
Ye Shijie was eating braised pork, as if he had returned to his childhood, when his father was still alive and came back from get off work every day. The happiest time was when the family was together and eating a meal cooked by his mother.
Although my mother's cooking skills are not very good, with the addition of memory, every dish she cooks becomes supremely delicious.
Li Fu swallowed a mouthful of beef stew and seemed to see the little girl sitting by the pond crying. He walked over and comforted her softly, and then she slowly leaned into his arms...
Food is like beauty, and beauty can also be eaten.
The feeling before Song and Ming Dynasties was rather strange. He felt that garlic green leafy vegetables were the most delicious because this dish was currently the most expensive.
Green leafy vegetables in winter, and not grown mechanically, are very rare.
That unique smell of garlic, just like someone, is both choking and moving.
Pingqiong's favorite is the fruit platter. Although she also loves braised pork and stewed beef, this simple fruit platter is something she yearned for many times when she was a child, but always had to give it to her younger siblings.
She ate heartily until Song Mingqian piled up the braised pork and braised beef in her bowl.
"...Don't eat fruit all the time, you won't be full." Song Mingqian reminded quietly.
Ping Qiong rolled her eyes at him and said, "What about you? Why do you always eat green leafy vegetables? Are you full after eating green leafy vegetables?"
