After finishing the letter, Wei Yang was obviously in a good mood and told Kong Gu, "Go and tell You Lan that I will cook tonight."

Hearing that the girl was going to cook tonight, Youlan jumped up happily, grinning from ear to ear. Last time the girl cooked a stew, she felt that her skills in cooking meat had improved a lot, although she couldn't compare with the girl, it was already pretty good.

I don’t know what the girl is doing tonight.

"Girl, what do you want to do tonight?" Before Youlan could ask, Xiongda asked for her.

"How's the bacon we pickled last time?" Wei Yang asked.

Last time they caught a wild boar, Weiyang made a stew. Everyone kept thinking about it, and when daybreak came they found the wild boar den and caught three wild boars, big and small. They ate some of it, and saved some to make pickled meat for the journey. Ding Wu and his friends also got more than ten pounds of it.

The meat was marinated by Youlan, of course under Weiyang's command. It was hung next to the carriage to be exposed to the sun and dew. It should be ready to eat now.

Hearing this, Xiongda ran into the carriage excitedly and took out a piece of bacon weighing about five pounds: "Is that enough, young lady? If not, I want another one."

"That's enough. We are few in number, so let's just make some meat porridge. It will be easier to digest at night."

Boss He glanced at the people surrounding Wei Yang with a complicated expression, coughed lightly and asked, "Qi Wu, what are they doing?"

Qi Wu stretched his head and looked around for a while: "They seem to be cooking."

It's not like, it's definitely.

"How about I go over and ask if they can make one for us as well?" Qi Wu asked cautiously.

He originally thought that Mr. He would disagree, but unexpectedly, he actually said "hmm".

Having received the order from Boss He, Qi Wu came over happily.

"What are you girls doing?"

Qi Wu nudged Ding Wu with his elbow. They were the two of them most familiar with each other. After all, he almost became sworn brothers with the other man just to get a free meal.

"Make meat porridge for us." Ding Wu looked at Qi Wu warily, and specially emphasized "us".

We have to be on guard. Last time, the master and servant ate most of the stew the girl made. What do they want to do this time

Qi Wu rubbed his hands and said, "Well, Brother Ding, can you make more so that our Dalang can have a taste?"

Ding Wu's mouth twitched, and after weighing the pros and cons, he decided to ask the girl. There was no other way, people under the eaves had to bow their heads, who asked them to follow the caravan!

Wei Yang was instructing You Lan on what materials to use. Hearing this, she frowned and asked, "Didn't we get any money for going with their caravan?"

"I gave it to you. Their caravan has a good reputation and charges high fees." Ding Wu replied quickly. I can't let the girl misunderstand that I embezzled the fees.

"How much?" Wei Yang picked out the ingredients that Youlan had prepared, took a look, nodded, and signaled her to put them in the pot.

"The total cost for four cars and the people is two hundred and eighty taels," Ding Wu replied.

"Oh." Wei Yang thought for a moment and said, "Then you should also charge him 280 taels for a bowl of porridge."

Ding Wu choked. Who is stupid enough to eat two hundred and eighty taels of porridge

But you should still go and ask. We are not forcing you to buy anything, right? If you think it’s too expensive, you can just not eat it.

Qi Wu returned to the caravan with a constipated look on his face. At this moment, their porridge was ready. It was a mixed grain porridge with pickled vegetables and pickled meat. It shouldn't be too bad.

"Da Lang, they said that if you want to eat porridge, you have to pay silver."

"How many?"

Qi Wu gritted his teeth and answered, "Two hundred and eighty taels a bowl."
