Chapter 62 The advent of flour

Luo Qing returned to the Bauhinia Chamber of Commerce and immediately passed the news back to the headquarters of the Bauhinia Chamber of Commerce. The transmission of important information on the mainland relied on the teleportation rune array.

This kind of rune array is small in size and easy to carry, but it can only transmit inanimate things and consumes a lot of money. Each use requires ten super-level magic crystals. Unless it is important information, it will not be used easily.

When the headquarters of the Bauhinia Chamber of Commerce received the news from Luo Qing, it immediately exploded and immediately convened a meeting with the chamber's top executives to discuss the matter.

"We must not let Wang Xing auction the method of making cement, otherwise everything will be over." One of them said loudly.

"What are you afraid of? What if it's an auction? The worst we can do is buy them all. We have plenty of money." Another person shouted with a rich look.

"What a fool. He can auction it once, two or three times. We can't buy it every time! Sooner or later, we will be dragged to death." The first person to speak cursed unceremoniously.

"Otherwise, we might as well send someone to kill him and grab him directly." Another person put forward a new suggestion.

"No, he is surrounded by a master-level warrior now. To kill him, at least a king-level person must go there." The first person to speak objected again.

"Isn't he the king? It's not like there aren't any in the chamber of commerce. If one doesn't work, just send two." The person who just spoke retorted.

"It's easy to kill him. What if he leaves behind and leaks the method of making cement? By then, the reputation of our chamber of commerce will be ruined."

"This won't work, that won't work either, so what do you think we should do?" Someone obviously became angry with shame and shouted.

"That's enough, stop arguing." The person sitting at the top stopped him.

Hearing this, everyone else stopped their discussion and looked over together.

The person in charge nodded with satisfaction and said: "Let's see how he solves this food crisis first. In addition, we should be prepared to purchase top-level defense systems, magic cannons and airships."

Obviously, the people at the top are not prepared to force things, lest they end up with nothing in sight. They have been bad guys but have not reaped any benefits.

It's not like you can't buy things like top-level defense systems and magic cannon airships. All the emperor-level forces have outdated products, but the price is too high and it's not worth it.

In the next few days, Xijincheng went into a frantic grain buying mode, especially those grain merchants who were determined to go against Wang Xing.

Almost all of the few grains left in Wang Xing were bought by them. The grains that could have lasted for half a month were mostly sold in just five days.

On this day, the residents of Xijin City rushed to the grain store opened by Wang Xing as usual, hoping to buy some food. As soon as they walked to the Xijin City Square, they found that countless skeleton soldiers had surrounded the square.

As time passed, more and more people were nearby. Just as everyone was talking about it, Zhao Yun came through the air, floating in the air, and said: "The lord has found a new food and is going to find someone to try it."

, this is an invitation letter, anyone who receives the invitation letter can go to the square to taste it."

Zhao Yun said, took out a handful of invitations and threw them in the air, dozens of times, almost all over the city.

"Those who receive the invitation can go to the square within a magic hour, and they will not wait if they are late." Zhao Yun's voice sounded again in the air.

"Shopkeeper Luo, what should we do?" The grain merchants and chambers of commerce that had cooperated with Wang Xing rushed to the Bauhinia Chamber of Commerce to find Luo Qing.

Luo Qing also held an invitation letter, his face uncertain. If Wang Xing really found new food, the Bauhinia Chamber of Commerce might be in trouble again this time.

"Everyone, let's go and take a look together!" Luo Qing said. Hearing is false, seeing is believing. Let's wait until we see the real thing.

Others also nodded and went to Xijincheng Square together. Some of them did not have invitation letters, but they had money. For them, problems that can be solved with money are not problems.

They came relatively quickly. There were only twenty or thirty people walking around in the square, and no one had started eating yet. To be precise, no one dared to eat.

Those grain merchants who had not received the invitations directly bought the invitations at high prices outside the square. Soon everyone had one and walked into the square under the leadership of Luo Qing.

Seeing Luo Qing and his entourage entering, those who were still watching took out their invitations and lined up to enter the square. No one dared to cause trouble in the city, especially on such an important occasion today, unless they were tired of living.

As soon as they entered the square, Luo Qing and others saw dozens of large tables forming a hollow circle, with many maids and servants standing inside. The tables were filled with food they had never seen before.

These maids were recruited after Wang Xing's new lord's mansion was built. They were basically the daughters or nieces of officials in Xijin City and Nanhua City. Even Li Heng sent a granddaughter to the lord's mansion to be a maid.

Luo Qing first walked to the nearest table and said, "What kind of food is this?"

"This is a steamed bun. It is very soft, sweet and delicious. It tastes no worse than breadfruit. Do you want one?" The maid standing behind the table said with a slight smile.

"Okay, give me one." Luo Qing said very simply.

"Please show me the invitation letter." The maid picked up a steamed bun and put it on the plate that had been prepared.

Luo Qing nodded and took out the invitation. The maid handed over the steamed buns, took the invitation and said, "Because the food is limited, each invitation can only taste three servings of food."

After saying that, he made a mark on the invitation letter to indicate that he had tasted a certain food.

Luo Qing didn't pay attention to this and picked up the small steamed bun on the plate. It was as soft as the maid said, just like a woman's breasts.

Divide the steamed bun into a dozen portions and pass them to the people behind you in turn. Everyone puts their portion into their mouths without hesitation. There is a sweet taste in the mouth of the steamed bun, which makes people chew it.

The taste of the steamed buns is undeniable, but Luo Qing and others feel extremely bitter in their hearts. They only hope that the output of this food will not be too large, giving them room for maneuver.

After a moment of silence, at the urging of the maid, Luo Qing and others had to leave.

"Is this also a steamed bun?" Luo Qing walked to the next food, which looked similar to a steamed bun, but was a lot smaller than the unknown food.

"No, these are steamed buns. There is no filling inside the steamed buns." The maid said, breaking open a steamed bun to reveal the meat filling inside. Vegetables are too expensive in the Chaotic Plains, and Wang Xing would not use vegetables to make steamed buns.

As the maid opened the buns, a strong smell of meat spread around, and even the maid couldn't help but swallow her saliva. Unfortunately, she was already full.

Ever since Wang Xing started trying to make various kinds of pasta in the lord's mansion, they, the maids and servants, have had a great time eating different kinds of food every day.

"Bring me five copies," Luo Qing said, seeing that the buns were not big, and at the same time motioning to the person behind him to get the invitation letter.

After eating the steamed buns, Luo Qing and others were silent for a while again, and moved towards the next food with a heavy heart.

Next came fried dough sticks, pancakes, dumplings, noodles and other kinds of pasta. Luo Qing and others couldn't stop eating. The most important thing was that they had used up all the invitations, but they didn't taste all the food.

Without the invitation, Luo Qing and others were also invited out of the square. Standing outside the square, a group of people did not leave. They wanted to find out the source and production of this food.

This new grain is countless times better than the coarse grains on the mainland in terms of taste, color, and how to eat it. If the output is large enough and easy to grow, it will most likely replace the traditional coarse grains on the mainland and become the staple food on the mainland.

As time passed, many people came out of the square with satisfied smiles on their faces and compliments. The only complaint was that the portion was too small, but eating this kind of food once was enough.

It was enough for them to show off for a lifetime, not to mention being invited by Wang Xing.

"The lord is here, please give way."

Just as these people were showing off to the people around them, someone in the crowd shouted.

Everyone looked back and saw Wang Xing, escorted by Dian Wei and Zhao Yun, leading a group of senior officials in the city, including the newly appointed city lord Tian Feng, walking along the path that everyone had moved out of the way.

"Hello, Lord."

From time to time, greetings were heard from the crowd.

"Okay, hello everyone."

Wang Xing responded while stepping onto the high platform that had been built with the support of Dian Wei and others, saying: "Many of you have already eaten food made of flour! Oh, by the way, flour is me

Given a name for the new grain, what do you think it tastes like? Is it delicious?"

"tasty."

Everyone who had eaten it said the same thing.

"That's good. It seems that you are willing to receive new grains. What you are most concerned about now should be the source and output of flour," Wang Xing paused and continued.

"Then let me tell you now, the flour output is very high, enough to make you eat until you die, and many of you have eaten it before, that is noodles." Wang Xing said, taking out a bright red noodle.

date.

"How can this be?"

"The lord must have made a mistake. The taste of noodles is not like this."

"I think the lord must be joking with us."

The audience was in an uproar. Although there was only one word difference between noodle and flour, the taste was worlds apart.

"Quiet." Dian Wei shouted loudly, silencing the people who were talking.

Wang Xing pretended to be helpless and said: "I know that many of you don't believe it, but I can still tell you with absolute certainty that flour does come from flour dates, and the processing method is also very simple.

You need to open the noodles and take out the flour inside and dry them in the sun."

After hearing Wang Xing's affirmative answer, the audience fell silent.

"In addition, I would like to remind you that all the noodles in Xijin City and Nanhua City have been purchased by me. The noodles outside the two cities belong to the Lord's Mansion, and no one is allowed to destroy them at will." This is what Wang Xing said.

Warn those grain dealers not to think about buying jujube or destroying jujube trees.

"In order to familiarize you with various ways of making pasta, from now on on the 15th of every month, a chef from the Lord's Mansion will teach you various ways of making pasta in the square. In addition, I would like to remind you one more thing, flour is not easy to store.
