Opening a Tavern in the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 258 Fortunately, Your Majesty, there is one more recipe

"Have you heard? Locusts are rare nowadays, and people are looking for them everywhere!" A diner in a green shirt said loudly.

"Haha, it's a good thing that His Majesty promoted the method of frying locusts, otherwise our crops would be ruined." An old man next to him responded with a smile.

"Yes, at first I couldn't believe that locusts were edible, but after trying them I found that they tasted amazing. Now my kid keeps asking to catch locusts and fry them every day." A middle-aged man took a bite of the dish and spoke excitedly.

"I also heard that the locusts in some places have been almost caught. This is really a solution to the problem." A young diner who looked like a scholar also joined the discussion.

When Yuyu and his family heard this, they smiled at each other. Yuyu couldn't help but walk into the middle of the diners and said, "Uncles and aunts, it took a lot of effort to turn these locusts into delicious food."

The diners then noticed Yu Yu's family and gathered around curiously. The diner in green asked, "Little girl, what do you mean by that? Do you know the story?"

Yuyu raised her head proudly and recounted how her family had met His Majesty in the fields, how they had proposed frying locusts, and how they had tasted them in the palace. The diners listened with rapt interest, exclaiming in amazement from time to time.

"So that's how it is. Your family has really made a great contribution." The old man exclaimed.

"This method of frying locusts not only provides us with a way to fight against the locust plague, but also adds a delicious dish. It really kills two birds with one stone." The middle-aged man nodded in agreement.

Xiaoyu smiled and said to the diners, "It's because Your Majesty cares about the people and is willing to try new things that this method has been promoted."

At this moment, Cheng Chumo and Qin Huaidao walked into Zuixianlou. Seeing Yuyu's family, Cheng Chumo smiled and greeted them: "You are here, Huaidao and I were looking for you."

Yuyu's eyes lit up: "Brother Cheng, Brother Qin, you're back?"

Qin Huaidao said, "I'm back. Now that the locust plague is receding, everyone feels a lot more relaxed."

Everyone sat together, enjoying the food and sharing their experiences during this period.

Cheng Chumo said, "This locust plague was resolved thanks to Yuyu's cleverness in coming up with the idea of ​​bombing the locusts."

Yuyu smiled a little embarrassedly: "It's also the result of everyone's joint efforts."

Everyone laughed when they heard this.

Cheng Chumo continued, "Indeed, without everyone's concerted efforts, we wouldn't have been able to resolve the problem so quickly."

He raised the glass in his hand and suggested, "Come on, let's toast to Yu Yu's creativity and the hard work of all of us!"

Everyone raised their glasses in response, and the atmosphere was warm and lively.

The clinking of glasses made a crisp sound, and everyone's face was filled with satisfaction and pride. As the wine flowed, everyone's mood became more relaxed and began to communicate more freely.

Aunt Li said with emotion: "When the locusts came, our crops were almost destroyed. Fortunately, you young people came up with good ideas, so we old bones can breathe a sigh of relief."

Uncle Zhang also agreed: "Yes, Yuyu is a very smart kid. This fried locust not only solved the disaster, but also gave us a taste of something different."

Yuyu blushed a little at the praise, but still said modestly: "Actually, I also learned this from the older generation. I heard about it when I was a child. Some people used similar methods to deal with locusts before."

At this moment, Wang Xiaoer, who had been listening silently, suddenly spoke up: "By the way, Yuyu, didn't you say before that you were planning to write a recipe for frying locusts and teach it to everyone? We are all looking forward to it."

Yuyu nodded and smiled: "Yes, I have already started preparing. Once it is sorted out, I will share it with everyone as soon as possible."

Cheng Chumo listened silently, his eyes lighting up: "This is great news. The Tang Dynasty has added another dish to its menu. Not only can we cope with the locust plague, but we can also have another special dish."
