Chapter 256 Do you have any other surprises?
Today he just gave it to everyone to taste, and then he would keep it for himself. After all, it was so delicious that he had to eat it sparingly.
By the end of the meal, even the oil on the bowl had been wiped clean by the steamed buns. You can imagine how popular this mushroom sauce is.
The group of guys who had enjoyed the delicious food were like a floodgate that could not be stopped. Zhou Shouan originally wanted to keep it for himself.
But things did not go as planned. Every time it was time for dinner, a group of brothers would instigate him to take out the mushroom sauce.
They have been brothers for so many years, he can't do anything about it.
Three cans of mushroom sauce, three different flavors.
The first jar is porcini paste.
The second jar is mushroom sauce.
The third jar is chicken mushroom sauce.
"This is the last jar. Please save some for me. It's gone in just a few days. Don't even give me anything to think about."
Complaints may be complaints, but the happiness in my heart is real.
It was already a little late when Qi Rui arrived, and there was only a little bit of chicken mushroom sauce left.
Zhou Shouan heated the food and put it into a small bowl. He saw that it was only enough for two bowls of rice.
"Forget it, just eat what you have. I'm a little hungry."
Qi Rui didn't want to come over, but he could always smell the fragrance these days, which was much more fragrant than the previous meals.
The personal guards reminded him several times to go to the kitchen to take a look, but he stopped them every time.
He was in charge of so many people. If the people below knew that he followed the smell to the kitchen just for a bite of food, they would be laughed at.
Where is his prestige?!
But I really couldn't help it that night. If I wanted to eat, I should eat it. It's my nature, and nature shouldn't be suppressed.
Qi Rui looked at the two bowls of white rice and half a bowl of sauce in the hands of his personal guard, and there was a hint of melancholy in his eyes.
"Eat, we each have a bowl."
Qi Rui poured the sauce on the rice and gave the rest to his guards.
The guard took the bowl outside the tent and sat on the steps to taste it.
"Shaha~ It's delicious~ Spicy and fragrant~ Thank you for the reward, Master."
A bowl of rice is not enough to fill the stomach of a lively young man. After thinking it over, Qi Rui decided to go to the kitchen with his personal guards.
"Zhou Shouan, do you have any more surprises?"
"Ah?...Surprise?" Zhou Shouan was confused for a moment and didn't understand what the General of the Central Army meant.
After thinking about it, he suddenly understood.
"Have!"
"General, please follow me."
So Zhou Shouan took the two people to the tent where he lived and dragged out two large boxes from the corner.
"General Zhonglang, this is what my brother brought to me. He said it is extremely valuable and asked me to hand it over to you when I have the chance."
Zhou Shouan opened the box, which was filled with bottles and jars of the same size, and there was also a letter in the box.
Zhou Shouan hadn't read it, he just gave a brief introduction.
"My brother said that my niece works in a clinic and made some pills in her spare time. They can relieve pain and fever. She said we can use them. These boxes contain anti-inflammatory drugs. They can be sprinkled on wounds to prevent inflammation, or taken with warm water. In addition to this, she also gave us a kind of fruit called chili pepper. Considering that we are cold in the barracks due to lack of clothes, chili pepper can generate heat after consumption, which may be of some help in freezing weather."
Zhou Shouan spoke a lot with his eyes shining. He had finally handed these things over to the army.
"What kind of medicine is this? It has such an effect?" Qi Rui asked as he opened the envelope. He originally thought it was something delicious, but it would not be bad if it was medicine, as it was always in short supply in the military camp.
The weird drawings and symbols inside...oh, no, they are words...introduce these medicines very clearly.
Whether it is true or not, just call a few people to try it and we will know.
As for the red fruit called chili, Qi Rui asked his personal guards to taste it.
Zhou Shouan watched the man chew the whole thing and his eyes widened in shock.
Tsk, my mouth is burning from the spiciness.
The guard chewed it two or three times and then spit it out, "So spicy, hiss~"
It was so spicy that he wanted to curse!
But he felt embarrassed in front of his master and the cook, so he had to clench his palms and bear it. His mouth kept drooling and his body was slightly sweating. It was really uncomfortable.
"Rufeng, how is it?"
"It's spicy and...hot. The red thing in the mushroom sauce is this fruit."
After the guard said this, Qi Rui understood.
He originally thought it was a condiment, so he picked it out and didn't eat it, but he didn't expect it to be such a good thing.
"Okay, is everything here?" Qi Rui looked at Zhou Shouan.
Zhou Shouan scratched his head and said, "There is another small box left for me by my brother, fearing that I might get sick."
In the military camp, he did not dare to hide it and took out a palm-sized box from under his pillow.
"You can keep these, and carry the rest into my tent."
Two people each carried a box into the tent.
"Zhou Shouan, where are you from?"
Zhou Shouan reported them one by one.
"Well, I have seen the contributions you and your family have made to the military camp. Remember, live well."
Qi Rui didn’t know what to say. He had never been able to get close to people, so he could only let him live well.
After Zhou Shouan returned, he continued to wash dishes with everyone.
Qi Rui was busy here. He called several military doctors to check the medicines.
It's strange that even though the military doctors have so many years of medical experience, they couldn't figure out the formula of this medicine.
"How could this be? The person who made this pill is just a little girl." After Qi Rui said this, he felt something was wrong.
Maybe it was made by the little girl's master.
When you think about it this way, it makes a lot more sense. Maybe the little girl's master is a famous doctor.
"If you can't see it, then you can't see it. This is the instruction manual. There are some precautions on it. Take a look."
Several old military doctors took the letter and took a look at it. My goodness, the handwriting was so ugly that it was unbearable to read.
"There are only so many pills in total, so use them sparingly," Qi Rui reminded.
"Yes Yes Yes."
So the pills were taken away by several military doctors.
"Master, you just took it away like that. Why don't you try it? What if it's poisonous..."
"No need to try. Zhou Shouan doesn't seem to be lying, and the names and places all match. If it was really poisonous, who would have sent it in so obviously? That person would be a fool."
That's true...
There were a few bottles of medicine on the table, and Qi Rui planned to keep them for backup.
There is also a box of chili peppers in the tent. I will give it to my eldest brother when he comes back. After all, he is leading the vanguard camp.
……
Boss Zhou returned to the city, rested for a day, and then left with the team.
When he was going back, he wanted to bring some border specialties for his family, but when he looked around, he found there was nothing delicious, so he didn't bother.
There was nothing in the car except some hay, all prepared for the little donkey.
The car went back almost empty, so the little donkey wouldn't be so tired.
They all took to the battle with ease.
With the experience of the previous trip, those who had money in their pockets would buy a coat or blanket in the city to keep themselves warm.
Wang Yuquan wrapped the blanket tightly and tied it around his waist with a straw rope to prevent it from slipping.
This time he learned his lesson and realized that keeping warm is the most important thing.
