Fantasy: Starting Out as a Gigolo, Born a Confucian Sage

Chapter 203

"Five prime ministers?"

Shen Wuming was stunned. Why not just eat hot pot?

Why did you turn the courtyard of Dali Temple into a political hall?

After all, as we all know, the top-level structure of the Han Dynasty is three provinces, six ministries, nine temples and five prisons.

And the one with the highest gold content belongs to the governors of the three provinces, that is, the prime minister.

Even a big boss like Pei Mao who holds real power is still one level below the prime ministers of the three provinces.

But I didn't expect it.

All he needed was a hot pot meal and he called all the five big guys over.

Too cheap?

He was full of slander in his heart, but Shen Wuming still stood up very honestly and saluted quickly.

"Shen Wuming has met all the prime ministers!"

Cao Juyu was also stunned for a moment, then stood up and saluted as well.

After all, it also holds the position of a doctor in the Ministry of Industry and Yubu, and is also a lower official.

But the little fox and Pei Zian on the side didn't care that much.

The little fox is still eating meat obediently.

These are all brought by my benefactor just now. They are very delicious. Isn’t they more interesting than these prime ministers?

Pei Zian said hello, "Grandpa Zheng, Grandpa Yang, Grandpa Zhao, Grandpa Li."

She called them all in a very polite circle, then jumped off the bench and walked towards the kitchen.

"I'll get you bowls of dipping sauce. What flavor do you want?"

The sturdy old man who had taken Pei Deben's position, that is, Zheng Chengwu, the right minister of the day, raised his head.

"It's just like your dad. I think it tastes good, just a little bland!"

"Is it salty or spicy?" Pei Zian asked.

"Put more salt, give me more of this spicy food, and give me more of this sesame oil."

"Is it still the same?" Pei Zian rolled his eyes, "Okay, I get it."

"Go quickly!"

Zheng Chengwu didn't care about this little girl, but picked up the spoon on the side and started to fish out the meat.

Lord Zuo Xiang on the side was speechless.

This bitch...

Just now I was scolding myself for eating too much, but now I have to use chopsticks and my appetite is comparable to that of Pei Zian!

The other three prime ministers laughed and said, "It's okay, whatever you want."

Mr. Zuo Xiang turned to look at Shen Wuming, "Okay, don't stand around, sit down and eat."

"They are all working for His Majesty, don't be so polite!" Another prime minister also said.

Shen Wuming nodded quickly, turned around and went in to move the benches again. All the benches in the room were moved.

"I say you young people, the food you eat is good, unlike us old men."

Zhongshu ordered Yang Yuanguan to take a piece of meat, put it into his mouth, and said cheerfully.

"It's a pity that there is no wine. Otherwise, it would be great to have hot pot."

He also found out just now that the way of cooking meat around the stove is called hot pot.

Pei Deben said quickly, "I told you earlier, there were just a few girls, and they didn't like drinking."

"But I happen to have some good wine hidden there. I'll get it for you."

Li Guozhong, the servant at the door, waved his hand, "Forget it, I'll just take a break from my busy schedule to fill my belly."

"It wouldn't sound good if word got out about the nonsense here."

"When the time comes, you still have to say that we accepted your bribe. I don't dare to take such a big blame."

Li Guozhong said half-jokingly, half-seriously. Pei Deben smiled dumbly and said, "Don't worry."

"That wine is really cheap. A bottle of wine costs less than a hundred copper coins. Can it be considered a bribe?"

"And this wine doesn't belong to me, this guy brought it to me before. It tastes really unique."

While talking, Pei Deben walked towards the public room, and not long after, he brought several green glass jars over.

That is what everyone calls Liuli.

With the development of Mohist technology to this level, the price of colored glaze has been driven down.

"I'll drive it!"

Shen Wuming stood up, took several glass jars, and flicked the iron seals above them.

The iron piece fell, Pei Zian had already brought the glass cup sensibly, and Shen Wuming poured it into it.

"Zizzizi..."

The wine was not very clear, and was even a little cloudy, with white foam on top.

"What's this?"

Several prime ministers looked surprised. Is this really wine?

It looks like poison.

"Boy, if you drink this stuff, I won't hit anyone later, right?"

Right Prime Minister Zheng Chengwu said, picking up a cup and looking up and down.

Shen Wuming poured other cups and explained with a smile, "There are some bubbles in this."

"To put it simply, when you drink it, the bubbles explode on your tongue, and the taste is okay."

"And the alcohol content in it is very low, which means it won't be intoxicating or delay things."

Although the cultivation levels of several prime ministers are very high, Xun will not be drunk by ordinary drinks at all.

But Pei Deben brought the beer, which still made their hearts move slightly, and they nodded subconsciously.

This guy knows how to advance and retreat.

After filling the beer for everyone, Shen Wuming did not rush to distribute it, but stretched out his hand to hover over each cup.

With the magic power in his hands, every cup of beer becomes cooler and more palatable.

"My lords, would you like to try it?"

Shen Wuming handed them the beer, and Li Guozhong took a sip with some suspicion.

Then he nodded repeatedly.

"The taste is a bit bitter, it seems like tea, but it's bitter in a different way, which is interesting!"

"It has a light taste of wine, although it is not as good as those aged wines, but it is still okay to drink with meals."

Shen Wuming nodded and said, "Of course, the most important thing is that it is delicious when used in hot pot!"

This is the wheat juice he carefully prepared before, not for anything else, just to drink when eating spicy food.

In addition, he also tried to make some cola, but the sweetness is still not very easy to control.

It has not been successful yet.

The core of the food is gone, and the cups and plates are in a mess.

Unknowingly, several prime ministers have filled their stomachs and burped one by one.

"I haven't eaten so comfortably for a long time!"

Zheng Chengwu sighed, "Thinking back to when I was at the border, that was called comfortable."

"If there is an enemy, go to the battlefield, if there is no enemy, eat meat and drink wine."

"It's not like now, staying with you nerds every day, it's like dying."

Among the five prime ministers, only Zheng Chengwu was born as a military general, and the others were civil officials.

Everyone was used to Zheng Chengwu's roughness. The left prime minister curled his lips and said nothing.

The other three prime ministers were too lazy to pay attention to him. After all, they were of lower status.

Shen Wuming shook his head and smiled, "It is precisely because life is not easy that we have to let you come."

"If an ordinary person goes up, how many days can he hold on?"

"As the saying goes, when God wants to give a man a great responsibility, he must first make his mind and will suffer, his muscles and bones tired, his body hungry, his body empty, and his actions disturbed."

"So move your heart and endure your nature, and increase what you cannot do."
