    @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

    The lobby of the Shibo Department was crowded with people, and a group of businessmen looked at the 'cooks' who were cutting the carpet, wondering what tricks they were going to do.

    After a while, a complete carpet was cut into countless small square pieces, and the envoy held them on a tray, and distributed a few pieces to each person's basin, and Silence was no exception.

    When everyone had something on their plates, Shen Mo said with a flat expression: "I don't have any dishes to entertain you today, so please try Mr. Badawi's Persian carpet."

    Everyone was in an uproar, and they all laughed dryly: "My lord really knows how to joke" But something happened that shocked them. They saw Shen Mo picked up a piece of carpet from the bowl, and chewed it in his mouth.

    Is this kind of carpet really edible?  Seeing the adults demonstrate, all the merchants had to follow suit, and they all stuffed chopsticks into their mouths and tried to chew, but the next moment they spat out one after another, "Bah, bah", and many people even shouted: "  Water, water"

    There was no water on the table, and the water bottles were all in the hands of the waiters, but no one dared to bring them to drink without a silent order.

    Silence also spat out the rug in his mouth, and asked everyone, "How do you feel about the taste?"

    "Mouth full of salty taste!" Everyone said in unison: "It's so bitter!" Finally, someone suddenly said: "This carpet has been soaked in sea water, right?!" Only then did everyone understand that the prefect is  Inspecting the goods on the spot is just this way, heywhy make everyone suffer?

    Silence is precisely to scare chickens and monkeys, so that these 'chickens' and myself will always remember the bitterness of this mouthful!

    With a wave of his hand, the waiter brought the water, and everyone rinsed their mouths in a hurry, but one person didn't rinse his mouth, he just spat out the carpet in his mouth, and sat there without changing his face There is no doubt that it was Balawi.

    Silence spit out the mouthwash into the copper basin, looked at him and said, "Mr. Balawi, what do you think of the taste?"

    "My lord," Balawi said with a chuckle, "I want to say that it tastes great, but that's against my will. To be honest, I can't taste anything except the authentic Persian cashmere."

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    "You're lying!" Huang Jin was angry, and said sharply: "Everyone sings that it's bitter and salty, why do you find it tasteless?"

    "Dear Eunuch Huang, I didn't say it's tasteless." Balawi said: "I've already said that authentic Persian cashmere has this taste." He said with a grin and said: "If your lord feels bad because of the taste of our carpet  I can't accept it because it's good to blame, because in our place, this thing is for stepping on, not for eating."

    Everyone can't help but look at this Balawi with admirationit's really a bold piece of hob meat!

    Silent but unhurriedly smiled: "It turns out that Persian carpets have such a unique taste. I wonder if wool can replace salt in your place?"

    "Of course not," Balawi shook his head and said, "It's just a unique smell, and it's still wool in essence."

    "Okay, let's take a look." Silence clapped his hands, and the waiter brought out a large pot, lit a fire in the yard, poured clean water into the pot, and boiled the carpets in the pot for a while, and at the same time  A bowl of steaming soy milk was served to each person.

    Mo Mo picked up the bowl, took a sip, and said with a smile, "Try it, everyone. How does it taste?" Seeing the hesitation on everyone's faces, he assured: "This is indeed ordinary soybean milk."  It's bland real soy milk.

    "Don't drink all of it." If Shen Mo shouted late, the soy milk would be drank up by the very hungry businessman, so he said: "There will be a big meal for everyone later, please ask the waiter to add some water now."

    All the people put down their bowls and watched the waiter scoop the water from the pot to boil the carpet into the guest's bowl, and saw the soy milk in the bowl suddenly congealed into bean curd!

    A common saying emerged in everyone's minds at the same time: 'If you order tofu in brine, one thing will drop one thing!  ¡¯ Everyone knows that to make soy milk solidify, it must be brine.  The way to make brine along the coast is to boil the sea water, and add it to the soy milk after the concentration is increased.

    "Mr. Balawi, what else do you want to say?" Shen Mo looked at the fat man with a half-smile.

    Barawi can't deny it now, no matter how shameless he is, he can't say that our wool can still be marinated.  Because he knew that in the face of the facts, no one would believe his nonsense anymore.  Thinking of this, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, knowing that this game was a loser.

    Originally, Balawi thought that Silence would treat him roughly, just like those local officials who only seized and arrested people.  that way?A match made in heaven.  He toasted silently and said, "Come on, in-laws, let's do one."  "

    The eldest son did not clink glasses with him, saying: "I will have a son, and if we marry, I should also marry your daughter."

    "You are still so determined," Shen Mo scolded with a smile, "You will have a daughter sooner or later, right? Even Yang Jiye has eight sisters and nine younger sisters."

    "That's true." The eldest son nodded and said, "You will definitely have a son." The two had a drink with He Meimei.

    "What if you have a daughter?" asked the eldest son.

    "It's cheap for your brat." Shen Mo waved his hand and said, "You guy, you still don't suffer!"

    Only then was the eldest son satisfied, and he smiled and said nothing.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    After drinking for a while, he finished talking about his family's short stories, then asked softly in a silent voice: "I heard that General Yu's life is very difficult?"

    "Yeah," the eldest son didn't keep secrets from him, nodded and said, "Isn't it the trouble caused by the navy? The general hopes to keep the enemy out of the country and go all out to develop the navy, but shipbuilding is too expensive. A local shipyard  We couldn¡¯t afford it at all, so we had to disperse them to various coastal prefectures and counties. As a result, all kinds of ships were built, all kinds of strange things, and could not form a combat force at all. Our general repeatedly wrote to the commander, applying for the unified management and unified accounting of the shipyards in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Fujian.  Just because of this incident, all the government officials in various places have said that our general is ruining people's jobs, and that he has tripped up our Yu family's army in everything from conscription to supply."¡ª¡ª
