Rise from eight hundred.

Of course, Tang Tuanzuo didn't change all the clothes just to show how proud he is!

The group of people were dressed in army and air force uniforms for solemnity. The clothes looked good, but they were a bit too eye-catching just walking on the street, especially if the Japanese spies in Jiangcheng saw it. That might be a sign. Uncertain trouble.

Tang Daoke has never underestimated the ability of various countries in this era to carefully cultivate spies. The performance and role of spies in the war during World War II are obvious to all. Many incredible eavesdropping skills and judgments are still impressive even after decades. People are amazed.

Moreover, Tang Dao's trip to Jiangcheng was not just to support Chen Ping. Perhaps it was because of the counterattack in Eastern Jin Dynasty. The Battle of Central China, which was supposed to be almost over in September, has only reached its climax now.

That also means that the nearly victorious battlefield of annihilation that once broke out near Jiujiang is still brewing.

In the past, the annihilation of more than 2 Japanese invaders in World War I was indeed exciting for the Chinese people, but the successful escape of the division headquarters and affiliated troops has always been a regret for the country. If that battle, together with the division headquarters and affiliated troops, had The division commanders all stayed, and their influence was even stronger than the Shandong victory.

After all, in more than a year of war, the Japanese army has never had a precedent of a division being completely wiped out, but that battle was just shy of achieving it.

Tang Dao came here hoping to make up for this shortcoming.

'Acan' is very depressed at the moment.

The legendary Tang Tuanzuo was really rich. Not only did he spend a lot of money to buy a new outfit for the soldiers present, he also asked a rickshaw driver to call dozens of rickshaws and divide them into groups.

It’s not exactly ostentatious!But it is conspicuous enough. Which group of people should he, the person in charge of the Jianghan area, follow?In addition, there was a rickshaw hanging far away. He was not conspicuous!Everyone can see it!

Only two legs!However, even if they are strictly trained agents, their specialty is not their legs. How can they compare with rickshaw pullers who make a living by pulling rickshaws all year round?

The key to being a spy is that he has to keep an eye on all directions and listen in all directions, and always pay attention to concealing himself so that he is not being watched. This is the most basic quality of being a spy.

Not only is my heart tired, but my body is also tired!He had to run at least ten miles in one trip, especially if he was tired as a dog. That was an insult to a dog. He was panting, just like having sex with all the girls in a brothel.

Then, a few more drops flowed from the forehead of the sweating lieutenant-level agent standing by the river.

It's so good. After dressing up for a long time and spending so much time, Tang Tuanzuo just wanted to take these hard-working and meritorious soldiers to the riverside to eat noodles.
Tang Tuanzuo never deceives people, saying that it is a feast, the scene must be large enough, the river stall area is enough for thousands of square meters, as for the meal, it is a matter of benevolence and wisdom.

Anyway, Achan has never eaten it. It is something that only boat workers and low-level scumbags eat, but government employees like them will never touch it.

Although Tang Dao was just a whim, he had wanted to come to Jiangcheng, a place located on Jiangtan, for a long time. He just didn't know if it would change because of the appearance of his little butterfly. Fortunately, he just asked the boss at the clothing store. Yes, that place still exists.

Yes, it is on this long embankment, in this era, that Jiangcheng has given birth to a kind of instant noodles that will surely become the business card of this super metropolis in the future.

Of course it's not instant noodles. In the future, it will have a name called "hot dry noodles".

For 'Achan', who was sweating hot and cold, this kind of food on the docks and embankments was an extremely simple food for the guests, boatmen and porters traveling from north to south, but for Tang Dao, this was a very simple food. It’s the specialty pasta that he can find with a familiar taste, comparable to a big meal.

What's more, as the business card of Dajiang City, "hot dry noodles" have never tasted bad.

To say it is unpalatable is either because the sesame sauce is not cooked properly, the alkaline noodles are boiled at the wrong temperature, or it is due to differences in regional tastes.

In the past time and space, Tang Dao was really familiar with hot dry noodles. It was really in line with his soldier's style that he could prepare and eat the food quickly.

I ate this stuff in the army canteen back then, and I had to eat it every time I came to Jiangcheng. Although it was not too long since the last time I ate it, for Tang Dao who came to this time and space, it was a hundred years in the blink of an eye. , I really wanted to take that bite.

Especially the noodle stall that was only recorded in history as the first to invent this kind of food, Tang Dao wanted to taste its original flavor.

Although he had never been to Jianghan Causeway, among the bustling crowds at the pier, Tang Dao quickly found the hanging "Cai Ji" curtain. People around the curtain were either sitting or squatting with their heads lowered and huffing and puffing. Noodle-eating boatman.

This should be the prototype of the most famous "Cai Lin Ji" in Jiangcheng in later generations!Tang Dao looked at the middle-aged man wearing a somewhat dirty apron in front of the noodle stall, who was busy scooping bowls of noodles from the boiling cauldron, and smiled lightly.

This person who is earning hard money probably never dreamed that in the future, his descendants would sell his brilliant invention all over the country and even open a chain of noodle stalls!Oh, no, it should be called a chain store in the future.

Hot dry noodles will be touted as a century-old snack by the descendants of this noodle stall owner in the next 80 years. In fact, it was not a hundred years from its birth to that time, and it was less than 90 years by all calculations!
Watching the diners using chopsticks to stir the yellow alkaline noodles that were basically not too different from the future, Tang Dao finally regained some sense of familiarity from the future.

At this time, it was the birth of hot dry noodles!According to records, the reason why hot dry noodles came out was probably because of the middle-aged man named Cai who was busy in front of him.

The boss surnamed Cai, who was originally from Caijia, Huangpi, has been selling noodles on the Jianghan Causeway for a long time. The noodles were born even earlier. That is because the weather in one of the four largest stoves in China is hot and the noodles are easy to spoil, so the smart Jiangcheng people Since the Qing Dynasty, a large amount of alkali has been added to noodles to prevent them from spoiling.

Boss Cai’s noodles are very popular, and the Hankou Shipping Terminal is located in a location with a large population flow, so it is naturally very popular.

It's just that customers often queue up and have to wait a long time to buy something. Many customers can't wait and leave. Boss Cai is very clever in business. In order to speed up shipments, through repeated trials, he finally figured out a set of "dusting noodles" The process is to boil the noodles until they are seven or eight times mature, then quickly cool down and apply oil evenly. In this way, you only need to scald the noodles with boiling water, and you can sell a bowl of hot noodles in less than 10 seconds.

This was not enough. Later, Boss Cai saw a sesame oil workshop on Changdi Street. After they extracted sesame oil from sesame seeds, the sesame paste was left aside. The aroma was fragrant. He had an idea; why not add sesame paste to the noodles to try Woolen cloth?

So Boss Cai bought some sesame paste from the sesame oil workshop owner and took it home.After many repeated trials, he felt satisfied. People around him said it was delicious. Only then did he confidently launch his new product and sell it on the streets.

Thus, in the early 20s, hot dry noodles, a noodle dish that became popular throughout Jiangcheng in the future, was born.

And on this autumn morning at the end of the 30s, with a group of young soldiers following Shen Chonghai inexplicably, and with the cold, hot, and sweaty gaze of 'Acan' in the distance, Tang Tuanzuo yelled: "Boss, come here!" 250 bowls of noodles!”

big boss!Big deal!How!This is the first impression of a busy middle-aged man on a handsome young man wearing a robe and top hat!

"Yes, it's all hot dry noodles!" Tang Dao was worried that the boss wouldn't understand, so he specifically explained it.

'What a zebra, this guy really comes here to eat noodles. Just this Arrancar, is it worth serving 4 bowls per person?No, looking at the number of people, I'm afraid there will be 5 bowls, which won't be able to sustain you! 'For 'Achan', the fire of complaining burning in my heart has never been extinguished!Even because of depression, I almost had to give back my arithmetic to the teacher in the school.

However, 'Acan' has always been conscientious about his duties. Although he looked down on this low-level noodle stall, he still sat down at the small square table 20 meters away from Tang Dao and his group, and waved to the woman in charge of clearing the dishes in a low-key manner. Serve yourself a bowl of hot dry noodles.

Not only because he had to pretend, but because he had traveled a small distance of ten miles, the energy of the two noodle nests he had eaten in the morning had long been exhausted, so he just took the opportunity to eat some noodles to replenish his energy. At the same time, he was also curious to let a famous army colonel. The "hot dry noodles" that Dafei Zhou and a group of soldiers came to eat were headed by Moss!

The next moment, 'Acan' almost buried his head in his crotch.

He made a fatal mistake!At that moment, he even felt that all the soldiers were smiling at him, even though none of them glanced at him.

When Tang Dao said, "250 bowls of hot dry noodles," not only the boatmen and porters, who were wearing single clothes with tendons exposed, all raised their heads and looked at Tang Dao, but also the middle-aged people who were extremely happy because of the arrival of the rich man in their hearts. After a long while, he hesitated and said: "Master, I don't have the hot dry noodles you want here, only sesame paste noodles!"

Tang Dao, who was already seated, suddenly remembered that the name hot dry noodles seemed to have been registered by the hard-working boss at the Industrial and Commercial Bureau after the founding of the Republic. Now its name is "Sesame Sauce Noodles".

"This noodle of yours is steaming but not soupy. You can eat it while it's hot without burning your mouth. Shouldn't it be called hot dry noodles?" Tang Dao was not embarrassed because he called the wrong noodle name. Instead, he made a logical output.

In terms of deception ability, I don’t know how many heroes have sacrificed their lives to accompany Tang Tuanzuo’s deception, let alone the ordinary people here.

Not to mention that many diners nodded their heads, even 'Achan' who felt that he had been exposed by calling the wrong noodle name could no longer be exposed. He also felt that this boss was stupid. He didn't use such an impressive name, so what's wrong with sesame sauce noodles! ', it's really easy for people to misunderstand whether the face is square or not.

Fortunately, Tang Dao didn't notice him, otherwise he would have known that he was being monitored on his own country's territory, and he would have been furious and a group of soldiers would have rushed up, leaving him dead or disabled.

What?From the Bureau of Investigation?Lieutenant? 'Acan' didn't think that his status and background would have any role as a hegemon in front of these soldiers who had seen blood at their hands.Many of his colleagues disappeared while performing similar tasks and were never seen again, and it was not clear how much effort his superiors made to find them.

"Master, thank you for naming the specialty noodles of this shop. I'll treat you to these two hundred bowls of hot dry noodles." The middle-aged man is definitely a smart man.

When he saw Tang Dao and the young guests who came to sit at the table, their backs were straight and they were sitting there like green pines, I knew clearly in my heart that these people were definitely ordinary people, so I immediately followed the current.

"Don't worry, just serve the noodles, and I'll make sure someone will pay the bill to you boss later. In these turbulent years, it's not easy for anyone to live!" Tang Dao replied with a smile.

"Boss, hurry up, I'm so hungry that my back is touching my chest! Go ahead, I have money here!" Long Yan finally regained his original nature and continued what his regimental commander had said.

Although the words are not correct, it is true that there is money here in Longyan.The Yeyue Village made a great contribution in the battle of Shanxi Province. Not only did they kill nearly 300 Japanese troops in Shayuegu, but more than 100 villagers followed the scouts and ran 200 miles a day and night to support the Qingshiyan battlefield and attack the 108th Division at night. The regiment's artillery position was successfully implemented and decapitation tactics were implemented. Even Tang Dao felt embarrassed if he did not reward him heavily.

Not to mention the 5-yang relocation fund given to the entire Yeyue Village who migrated here, all Yeyue Village clan members who participated in the war, regardless of life or death, were each given a 50-yang war participation allowance. In addition, compensation for those who died in the battle was 100-yang. Those with military exploits and those with four elements The reward standards for regiment regular troops are the same.

Long Yan is a master of meritorious deeds. He killed eight Japanese invaders in one battle with three enemy heads hanging from his waist. He is definitely a blinding image. Even if the Tang Dao was used to win over the entire Yeyue Village clan, In violation of military practice, he was given the rank of second lieutenant, and no one objected.

According to Lu Zhongda, once Gou Ri goes berserk, he is like a wild beast!

Yeyue Village is rich, and there are many private treasuries in Longyan carrying eight bloody heads of Japanese infantry as rewards. On this trip, they even brought a small bag of silver with them, and they shouted for him to treat them wherever they went.

People who don't know him will subconsciously think that this guy is used to being poor, and he likes to show off after getting rich. However, they don't know that there is a little thought of the Long Yan and Long Ying siblings here.

After the battle in Shaiyue Valley, Yeyue Village was now forced to be deeply bound to the Four Elements Regiment. There were more than 200 people serving in the Four Elements Regiment. It was inevitable to maintain a good relationship with the regiment commander, otherwise that day After a military order was issued, how to organize the artillery fire of the mountainous company directly under the regiment headquarters that was still preparing?

Of course, this is because Long Ying doesn't understand Tang Dao yet, and is just used to using his past knowledge to interact with people. However, this is also the method that the siblings want to lead their tribe to survive in this troubled world. Tang Dao knows it in his heart, but he doesn't Prevent.

'It takes a long way to know the power of horses, but it takes time to see people's hearts', isn't it?Some things are not just words, but must be done.

The characteristic of hot dry noodles is that the noodles are cooked very quickly. In addition, Tang Dao and others behaved differently from the many poor people on the dock who were rushing by boat, especially the middle-aged people and the few helping cooks. Quickly, it only took less than 10 minutes for each bowl of noodles to be served to everyone.

For the remaining 200 bowls of noodles, Tang Dao was stirring the noodles and casually waved his hand to Xia Dayu to explain: "Don't be busy making the remaining 200 bowls. If you pass by Boss Cai in the future and don't have money to eat noodles, Yes, Boss Cai, give him another bowl! If there is still not enough, there will definitely be money delivered in the future."

"Master, you are a good man!" The middle-aged man bowed to Tang Dao solemnly, and promised Tang Dao with a serious face: "No matter whether you return the money in the future, Master, I, Lao Cai, will only have to pay for my noodle stall in the future." Now, I will do my best to prevent my fellow tribesmen who beg me for food from leaving hungry."

This guy is nice. Tang Dao smiled and waved his hands, focusing on eating noodles and stopped talking.

Following the example of Tang Dao, Gu Xishui and others mixed the noodles and sauce, and added some coriander, green onions, vinegar and other seasonings. While they were stirring, the hot and fragrant smell lingered in their noses. Come.

The alkaline noodles are already chewy in the mouth, and coupled with the fragrant sesame sauce, people can't help but whet their appetites. Maybe it's because they were already hungry because they didn't have breakfast in the morning. Unknowingly, in less than 2 minutes, a group of people can't help but whet their appetite. The big men wolfed down the noodles in their respective bowls.

"Damn it, I didn't expect there to be such delicious noodles here. It's delicious. It's so delicious!" Long Yan ate all the noodles. The bowl was as clean as if a dog had licked it, and hot sweat appeared on his forehead.

"Bah! You're a sycophant!" 'Acan', who had just brought the noodles to the table and hadn't even had a chance to take a bite, looked at the pitch-black sesame sauce and subconsciously complained crazily.

Just looking at the appearance of this Arrancar, there is nothing delicious about it.

As the sound of Tang Dao rang out, 'Acan', who found it difficult to swallow the noodles but couldn't help but want to eat a few bites to satisfy his hunger, didn't bother to eat and raised his ears to eavesdrop.

It seems that the army colonel is talking about important military matters.

"Long Yan, you are also a second lieutenant in the army now. Don't just remember that the noodles are delicious. Let me ask you a question. During the war, the war is the most important thing. It is not easy for brothers to have hot meals, especially in winter when the weather is colder. Even if the hot buns that Ban worked so hard to make were sent to the trenches, they would be as cold as stones." Tang Dao asked. "Do you think this problem can be solved?"

"Then just send the stove and steamer over!" Long Yan scratched his head and thought seriously for a while before giving his answer.

"Fuck you! Where did this weird thing come from?" 'Acan' almost laughed out loud.

What the heck, why not just wrap it in a bedding and send it over? How heavy is the stove!The lieutenant-level agent also had his own answer in his mind.

"Silly! What the commander is saying is that with this noodle, just scald it with hot water and the brothers can eat it hot." Mingxin couldn't help rolling her eyes.

"Yeah!" Long Yan scratched his head again and nodded sincerely.

The lieutenant-level agent once again wanted to bury his head in his crotch. It seemed that there was more than one idiot.

After Mingxin reminded them, the soldiers of the Four Elements Regiment nodded.

If this kind of noodles, which can be eaten after being boiled in boiling water for ten seconds, were applied to the front line, during the battle breaks, a large pot could feed an infantry platoon or even two infantry platoons in 10 minutes. It's much more convenient to have a hot and fragrant meal of noodles than the noodle soup in northern China.

"Haha, being able to be eaten quickly is not the biggest advantage of this kind of noodles. Whether it is knife-cut noodles, hand-rolled noodles or other northern noodles, the noodles have to be made fresh. Not to mention the trouble, they also have to be cooked and cannot be stored for a long time. Winter and summer. But alkaline noodles are very different." Tang Dao didn't even look at 'Acan' who was making stupid comments over there, and continued to explore his ideas.

Regarding the persistent man, Tang Dao knew that he was following him from the beginning, but he didn't take it too seriously, even though his collar was standing up and his ears were still high.

If you want to listen, then listen!Tang Dao didn't mind that the discussion about "instant noodles" as military rations was heard by the Bureau of Investigation. If the government could really make effective changes to the food of frontline soldiers, it would be something Tang Dao would like to see.

"Boss, how long can your alkaline noodles be kept at room temperature?" Tang Dao waved his hand and called the middle-aged man who had been paying attention here for fear of not taking good care of it, and asked.

"If the oil has not been cooked in advance, there is no problem if it is stored at room temperature for a week. Even in a hot summer like Wuhan, it can be stored for more than five days and will never go bad." The middle-aged man did not know Tang Dao's intention and was very cautious. to answer.

"Well, very good! Heavy rain, please remember to ask the boss later how to make this kind of alkaline noodles that can be stored for a long time, so that Director Zhuang can try a simpler method." Tang Dao ordered the little bald head.

The face of the middle-aged man changed slightly.

"Don't worry, this is for military rations. We will not take away your business, boss. We will pay the relevant technical fees." Tang Dao explained.

And the thoughts in the head of 'Acan' over there have already been spinning. If the brain nerves can connect to the propeller, he can take off on the spot.

This seems to be a major military event!Now, besides fried rice, what frontline soldiers eat is fried rice, right?If he reported this news to the director, he might even be promoted because of it!

Maybe the army commander knew that it was his idea and changed the food of his officers and soldiers, and he might even give him a special boost.

A rapid rise to success may be within this thought.

It has to be said that this era is really short of creativity. Tang Dao just mentioned it casually and made a spy leader who had followed him for more than ten miles fall into an indescribable fantasy.

Then, when the middle-aged man came to him to pay the bill hesitantly, the lieutenant-level agent suddenly discovered that the army colonel and the group of soldiers who had been talking eloquently just now had disappeared.

He hurriedly lost the five cents and was about to leave when he was grabbed by a middle-aged man, "Guest, we don't have enough money!"

"You're a zebra guy. A bowl of noodles costs two cents. The two bowls I gave you are enough." Acan was furious.

What's more, what's even more annoying is that I didn't even take a bite.

"It's 251 bowls, 1 bowl here, 250 bowls over there!" The middle-aged man nodded firmly.

"You're a zebra, you mean Moss? Do they care about Moss?" The lieutenant-level agent's head was slightly dizzy. It seemed like there was a trap!
"The gentleman just now said that you will definitely pay the bill!" Facing the rage of the lieutenant-level agent, the middle-aged man said firmly although he was a little frightened. "Moreover, the master also left a special message, saying that you have worked hard all the way and if you want to do good business in the future, just settle the bill, otherwise he will not do business with you."

"He's a zebra!" Ah Can wanted to tease me about who the people in the Investigation Bureau were afraid of, and then walked away.

However, that foot just didn't step out for a long time. I dug around in my arms for a long time and finally took out 10 silver dollars and counted them to the middle-aged man one by one.

"They ate fifty bowls. I'll pay for the fifty bowls first. I'll pay for the remaining 200 bowls tomorrow!"

Conveniently, I took the five-cent copper yuan and put it in my pocket.

A spy is also a worker, especially when he is as tired as a dog on a mission and has to lose ten silver dollars.

No wonder Tang Dao ordered 250 bowls, 'Acan' has completely realized it now!
