Chapter 152 Fat and oily
When Baitao heard this, he also asked curiously: "From where?"
"It's in the wall. There is a secret compartment in the room of the leader of this group of bandits."
Bai Dacheng gestured excitedly with his hands and said excitedly: "Auntie, I also remembered that the cave we passed before was connected to a cave, so..."
On the side, Bai Chunsheng smiled and did not interrupt.
He muttered in his heart, I just want to see you bragging.
Speaking of which, Bai Dacheng was a little lucky. The house of the leader of this group of bandits was locked.
When searching for a home, you have to pay attention to speed, otherwise it will be too slow and it will be dark if you delay.
Therefore, when encountering a locked house, no one thought of looking for the key, especially the people in Taohua Village who were very powerful and would kick down the door without saying a word.
When Bai Dacheng kicked the door, he was so strong that he didn't know that the master had elegantly installed a screen in his room.
This kick not only knocked the door away, but also knocked half of the door down and knocked down the screen.
The screen hit the wall with one kick, knocking off a piece of the wall and revealing a hole.
Forget it if it were somewhere else, this is a bandit's den, maybe it holds some secrets.
So Bai Dacheng banged around the room, smashing out the hidden compartments.
Later, when other people took a look, they also quickly smashed the walls of the houses they had searched before. There were indeed many houses with hidden compartments.
This is why they came back so late when they could have come back earlier.
As soon as Bai Dacheng finished speaking, the people waiting nearby put the basket in front of Baitao that he had been holding in his arms.
"Auntie, look, auntie, I found this, and it's also in a secret room..."
Baitao took a closer look and saw that in addition to a few gold bars, there were also some gold ingots and silver ingots. He couldn't help but said: "The bandits in Qingquan County are quite fat."
"Yes."
"Auntie, we have done a rough calculation. Excluding the gold bars in this box, the gold looted from other houses is 3,278 taels."
Look at that old nest, it has been hovering around for at least seven or eight years. After so many years, it has robbed so many passers-by and caravans, isn't it very fat?
Recalling the last time they raided the old home in Heifeng Village, none of them smashed the walls and dug holes. It was a pity for Bai Chunsheng and the other dozen people.
If Qingquan County wasn't too far away from Heifeng Village, they probably could have turned around and gone back to dig holes in the wall to search.
When the people who raided the bandit's den came back, except for the treasures they carried to Baitao in person, all other supplies were handed over to Bai Dashan and his people to count.
Bai Dashan will take stock now and come over with a notebook to report.
"Auntie, we have already counted them. There are thirty-seven thousand five hundred and twenty-one taels of silver, one thousand eight hundred and thirty-one copper plates, and there are three boxes of broken copper plates that are not stringed together. We are still counting them."
< br>
"There are three hundred and fifty-one pieces of cloth, including 86 pieces of silk and satin, 37 pieces of fine cotton, and 25 pieces of Sichuan brocade..."
"Six donkeys, five mules, seven horses, plus the 38 horses captured at noon today, a total of 45 horses were captured."
Bai Dashan was flipping through the book and reading, and he was thankful in his heart. Thanks to his great aunt, he taught her powerful multiplication tables, otherwise he would not be able to count these things so quickly.
If anyone pokes his head to look, he will definitely see that the notebook in Bai Dashan's hand records not the Qin characters used in the Jin Dynasty, but the modern Chinese characters used by Baitao.
Even if a book like this is lost on the road, no one except the people in Peach Blossom Village can understand it.
When Bai Dashan stopped to report, Baitao said: "There are a lot of things. In this way, just like before, if someone buys the scattered things on the way, they will be sold." Leaving too many things will also increase the speed of the journey. It is not necessary .
"Yes, grandma." Bai Dashan has already prepared, so he has registered on a separate page some items suitable for sale to people who need to buy things on the road.
While they were talking here, Bai Duoxi ran over, and the strong aroma of barbecue on her body made Baitao's stomach growl.
When Bai Tao saw it, his eyes immediately lit up: "Duoxi, are you ready to roast the whole lamb?"
If it weren't for the stubbornness to eat roasted whole lamb, Baitao wouldn't have waited all afternoon without drinking milk tea or nibbling snacks.
Bai Duoxi nodded with a smile: "Okay, aunt, it's time to start dinner."
"Okay, let's have dinner." Baitao didn't talk nonsense. Her stomach was so empty now that she felt like she could eat a cow.
After receiving the order, Bai Duoxi immediately turned to the people who were removing the charcoal fire and shouted: "Slice the most tender parts and put them on a plate."
"No, let me do it. This is a delicate job." The meat for my aunt must be the most tender and delicious.
Bai Duoxi muttered, then hurried over, picked up the dagger, and started cutting the flesh.
Lu Xiaohao also received three kilograms of roast mutton, but the parts were randomly chosen.
Fried chicken gizzards with sour bamboo shoots and scrambled eggs with tomatoes are the two other dishes besides the roasted whole lamb. Of course, there are also cold side dishes in Taohua Village, but that is the treatment that belongs to people in Taohua Village.
Since Lu Xiaohao had eaten sausage, crayfish and pork head meat, this time when Lu Xiaohao saw a dish he didn't recognize, he no longer touched it directly, but asked about it.
White: "This is chicken gizzards, part of the chicken's internal organs."
"The fried chicken gizzards with sour bamboo shoots is the best. We can eat three big bowls of rice." After saying that, White left.
When Bai Qi was there, Yang Song didn't dare to say anything. As soon as he saw her, the story of her calling the monkey to steal the peach came back to him.
When she was far away, Yang Song dared to speak: "Master, if..."
Lu Xiaohao: "Let's eat, or it will get cold soon."
It is true that chicken gizzards are one of the internal organs of a chicken, but what they contain is a little hard to explain.
Yang Song hesitated to speak, but when he saw that his master had already eaten, he swallowed his words.
Lu Xiaohao didn't miss Yang Song's expression, but he decided to finish eating before talking, otherwise, he was afraid that he would be hungry tonight.
The roasted whole lamb tasted just right. Although it cooled down after leaving the charcoal fire because of the cold weather, it was still crispy and sweet in the mouth.
Especially the sweet honey on the surface makes people want to eat it all on their tongues.
Eat two bites of roasted mutton, and then eat a chopstick of sour bamboo shoots. It is sour and refreshing, which is very refreshing.
The chicken gizzards stir-fried with sour bamboo shoots are crunchy, salty and fragrant.
As Bai Qi said just now, Lu Xiaohao and Yang Song's stomachs were full after eating three large bowls of rice, so they put down their chopsticks.
After taking two sips of tea, Lu Xiaohao spoke up: "Are these chicken gizzards similar to fat intestines?"
Just as Yang Song was about to put away the dishes, he stopped, thought for a moment, and nodded: "Absolutely. One is for storage and the other is for passing by." Anyway, they will contain these things.
After hearing this, Lu Xiaohao's forehead twitched, and his breathing became confused for a moment. He spoke after two seconds: "Chef Bai has superb cooking skills."
These strange ingredients may not be edible to others, but he can actually cook them so deliciously.
