Quick mission: We don't make trouble

Chapter 204: Visitors from the Prefecture (4)

Team Leader Yang's face was filled with impatience, as if he didn't want to stay even a second longer. Beside him, Yang Jiu and Li Quan could no longer contain their excitement, eager to try and get moving immediately. In stark contrast, however, Shopkeeper Yang seemed relatively calm. Frowning, he advised earnestly, "Second Master, please think twice before you act! Your health simply can't withstand this kind of tossing and turning."

Team Leader Yang waved his hand without hesitation and responded decisively, "No matter what, even if we have to carry the Second Master away, we must hurry back today! This matter is settled, no room for negotiation. Now, go and get Doctor Zhu and his family, and call that Yang Wu as well."

Shopkeeper Yang couldn't help but feel a little uneasy. After hesitating for a moment, he asked cautiously, "Then, Second Master, what should I do? Should I stay in Yucheng and continue to guard the shop, or should I return to the capital with you?"

He was worried that the second master's previous proposal to transfer him back to the provincial capital would fall through.

Team Leader Yang pondered for a moment, then slowly replied, "After winter, there won't be much to deal with in Yucheng. You only need to leave a few trusted men to look after the shop. Take all the goods you can, and we'll send suitable personnel to take over next spring. Of course, if you find anyone worth training and promoting, please feel free to report to me. The city's need for manpower is even more urgent right now, especially for food. So, you and your wife should return with me."

Hearing this, Shopkeeper Yang hurriedly nodded in agreement: "Okay, everything will be subject to your arrangements, Second Master." After that, he turned around and left in a hurry, inviting Doctor Zhu and his family to go. At the same time, he did not forget to arrange for other people to go to the backyard to inform Yang Wu of the news.

In the kitchen, Zhu Qingqing was standing in front of the stove, patiently teaching Yang San cooking techniques. She was very skilled, explaining the steps while demonstrating them to Yang San.

Zhu Qingqing knew they would be back today, so she sent people to the market early to buy fresh yak meat and prepare all the necessary seasonings. At this time, a row of bottles and jars filled with various seasonings were placed on the stove, colorful and fragrant.

Yang San stared at the bottles and jars with curiosity, his eyes wide open, as if he had discovered a new world. He had never seen so many seasonings before, and he couldn't help but sigh, "I didn't know there were so many details in cooking!" He was especially amazed when he saw the pile of bright red peppers.

Zhu Qingqing not only brought spicy and delicious chili sauce, but also specially prepared some dried chilies. She told Yang San that when they arrived in the capital, she would let him see all kinds of chilies, such as green peppers, red peppers, yellow peppers, chili peppers, and chili peppers. Hearing this, Yang San couldn't wait to find out more.

At that moment, Yang San suddenly developed a strong interest in the dried chili pepper. He carefully picked one up, brought it to his lips, and took a small bite. Instantly, a strong spicy flavor spread throughout his mouth, stimulating him to the point of tears, yet at the same time, he felt an unprecedented sense of pleasure. At this moment, he finally believed what Master Zhu had said before: this dried chili pepper was indeed spicier than the dogwood, and more stimulating to the taste buds.

After this experience, Yang San secretly made up his mind that no matter how exotic the ingredients or seasonings Master Zhu brought out in the future, he would not make such a fuss like he did at the beginning. Then, under Zhu Qingqing's orderly command, Yang San began to get busy.

Wash the beef and blanch it...

Several other women helped wash potatoes and radishes.

Chunhua was busy making a fire...

After much effort, a delicious pot of beef and potatoes was ready. The beef was tender and juicy, and the potatoes were soft and flavorful, a perfect blend that exuded an alluring aroma. They also cooked a large pot of beef bone and radish soup, which was rich, delicious, and nutritious.
