"Mingting, please give me another pack of instant noodles! As long as you give me another pack, my life will be yours!"

The governor Zhao Quan took the lead, and the other governor Zhu Xiang and the seven Cao officials of Wu Lian, except Zhang Ju, also followed suit. They used chopsticks and chopped up half of the soft instant noodles, and drank noodle soup without leaving any leftovers. Then they rushed to Zhang Zhi and knelt down on one knee, holding the bowl and raising their heads...

"My subordinates swear to follow the Ming court to raise an army to restore the country, go through fire and water, and be crushed to pieces, and are determined! If you have any strange intentions, the sky will hit lightning, and the world will not tolerate it! Please ask the Ming court to be kind and give me another pack of instant noodles!"

Looking at the firm faces and expectations of Zhu Xiang, Zhao Quan and others, Zhang Zhi couldn't help but feel a little stunned. After a while, he smiled bitterly and said, "Is it too exaggerated? For a pack of instant noodles, is it as for the words so serious?"

"That's right." Fu Gong next to him agreed, holding the bowl, licking the remaining soup at the bowl, pointing at the instant noodles left in front of Zhang Zhi and saying, "Didn't you see that there are so many left in the Ming court? As long as you are determined to serve the country and loyally assist the Ming court in reviving the country, will the Ming court treat you badly?"

After saying that, Fu Gong turned to Zhang Zhi again and said, "Ming Court, you know that Xiaguan has been supporting you in the process of reviving the country from the beginning. So, looking at Xiaguan's loyalty, can you give Xiaguan another pack of instant noodles?"

"Ming Court, I am honest and I will ask you for another bag." Zhang Ju also licked his lips and said, "I want to take it back to my family and let my family taste it."

"A bunch of foodies!"

Zhang Zhi complained in his heart, then opened the packaging box, poured out all the instant noodles in the packaging box, picked it up and distributed it, "Come on, there are thirty-eight packs left here, you can divide it into three packs alone."

"Thank you, Mingting!"

The hall was like a frying pan. Wu Lian and Wenwu rushed to Zhang Zhi cheering and snatched the instant noodles in front of Zhang Zhi. Then he rushed to tear open the packaging bags and poured out the noodles and seasonings. He shouted in his mouth, "Hurry, hurry up, get the soup for me! Get the soup for me!"

Unfortunately, the boiling water delivered to the county temple back kitchen was not enough. Less than half of the people received enough boiling instant noodles. The remaining half were so anxious that they shouted and roared and asked to boil the water quickly. When Zhang Zhi saw that it was not good, he had to turn to the nearby Chan Zheng, and ordered Zhang Zheng, who was holding the noodle bowl, and said, "Zhang Zheng, go to the kitchen quickly and ask them to cook some more soup. Remember to cook more."

Zhang Jian vaguely agreed while chewing the noodles, then rushed to the kitchen with a bowl of noodles. Zhang Zhiya then turned to Wu Lian Wenwu, who had not received boiling water, and said, "Everyone, the soup will come in a while. Let's eat some food first, drink some wine, and wait until the soup comes before instant noodles."

"Mingting, you can eat it, we can just drink some wine." Fu Gong replied: "After eating your instant noodles, no matter what kind of delicacies it is, Xiaguan can't eat it anymore."

Everyone agreed, saying that no matter what they eat, they would not taste good now, and they just wanted to eat instant noodles. Zhang Zhi had no choice but to nod and agreed, then picked up the chopsticks, picked up a piece of steamed pork from the kitchen and put it in his mouth, and tasted the food of this era for the first time after coming to this era.

It would be fine if I didn't taste it. As soon as the steamed pork was put into my mouth, a fishy and strange smell hit Zhang Zhi's forehead. At the same time, there was no salty, umami or fragrant taste in his mouth. Zhang Zhi couldn't help but open his mouth and spray it directly on the table table in front of him. He forced Zhang Zhi to quickly pick up the turbid wine that he wanted to scoop into the cup and hold it in one mouthful, and rinse his mouth with the turbid wine that was as light as water.

Then, after spraying the wine that was rinsing on the ground, Zhang Zhicai vomited the remaining wine and screamed: "What kind of meat is this? Why is it so fishy and so sexy? What kind of weird smell?"

"Strange taste?" Zhang Ju, who was waiting for boiling water, was a little strange, so he also picked up a piece of steamed meat, chewed it and tasted it, and then said even more strangely: "No wonder? It's just the taste of steamed pork head meat? But now you don't have enough salt, so you put a little less salt."

"Steamed pork head meat?"

Just hearing the name of this dish, Zhang Zhi felt greasy and nauseous. Then Zhang Zhi learned his lesson. When he went to pick up the sashimi dip sauce, he chose to be careful, and only dared to dip it slightly in a little dark green weird dip sauce. He was very careful when putting it in his mouth. As Zhang Zhi expected, this dip sauce made of unknown plants was indeed more bizarre than the color, but it was slightly spicy and had no salty taste. It tasted completely different from the sashimi in later generations.

When I tasted the white water and cooked the vegetables, the taste was slightly normal, but the clear soup was poor and there was no taste except the smell of the leaves.

The staple rice porridge is also terrible. It’s fine if you don’t put any seasonings. It’s fine if you have too much rice bran and rice husks. There are still a few fat pork pieces with shiny oil in the porridge. So after just taking a sip, Zhang Zhi could only put down the porridge bowl, and then said in his heart with a sad face: “Forget it, I’d better eat instant noodles too. I really can’t bear the food of this era.”

While waiting for everyone, a few pots of boiling water were finally delivered to the hall. Then Wu Lian Wenwu rushed forward like a hungry tiger pounced on food, scrambling to scoop water and instant noodles. Zhang Zhi gave Zhang another two packs of instant noodles, and then made a bowl of noodles for himself.

The next picture was even more exciting. The tempting instant noodles seasoning smell filled the fragrance. Wu Lian Wenwu held the bowl while sniffing vigorously, and waited anxiously for the dough cake to be soaked softly. Then he ate the noodles faster than the other, smiling and applauding, and couldn't bear to waste even a drop of soup.

That's not all. As the fragrance spreads outward, the front hall door was soon filled with servants from Wulian County Temple. They tried hard to open their nostrils. While looking at Wulian Wenwu who was eating noodles, they desperately sucked the fragrance of instant noodles in the air. Many people even drooled, and none of them looked at Zhang Zhi pitifully, with a look of wanting to speak but stopped.

Unable to bear so many pitiful gazes, Zhang Zhi personally soaked the remaining two packs of noodles in a big bowl, then brought them to the hall and handed them to the servants and said, "Come on, try some of them."

"Xie Mingting!"

The huge thanks almost broke Zhang Zhi's eardrum. Then, the officials and the servants competed with each other, took turns picking up some instant noodles with chopsticks to taste, shouting intoxicatedly, and even had a quarrel for whom he could eat more, and almost started to fight in the hall in front of Zhang Zhi.

Finally, this big bowl of noodles was not only drunk all the soup, but also licked the bowl cleanly.

"I only know now how happy it is to live in the twenty-first century and how miserable it is to live in ancient times."

After finally knowing how lethal the indigenous people of this era were, Zhang Zhi quickly discovered another situation, that is, although Wu Lian Wenwu was licking the corners of his mouth, everyone still left a or two packs of instant noodles, holding them in his arms like a baby, and refused to let go of anything. Zhang Zhi was surprised and asked, "Why don't you eat it? There is still a lot of soup, soak it if you want to eat it."

"Mingting, I want to take it home for my family to taste it."

"How can you bear to finish such a good thing in one go?"

"Minggong, the officials want to keep it for eating tomorrow."

After hearing everyone's explanation, Zhang Zhi couldn't help laughing and said, "Eat it, if you like it, eat it. First, eat your stomach full. I'll give you some for you later and let you take it back for your family to taste."

"Really? You still have this kind of magical thing in your hands in the Ming court?" Fu Gong asked in surprise: "How much did Prime Minister Zhuge give you in his dream?"

"I can't tell you how many are secrets," Zhang Zhi smiled and said, "But I can guarantee that as long as you follow me faithfully and revive the country, I can let you eat this instant noodles every day in the future."

He looked at each other in surprise, and Wu Lian and the civil and military officials bowed their fists together, and said in unison: "Please rest assured by the Ming court. We will serve the country loyally and swear to follow the Ming court to raise an army to restore the country!"

"Ming Court, we are also willing to follow you to raise an army to restore the country!"

The officials and servants in the hall were also kneeling all over, rushing to hold their fists and bow their hands, shouting, "Ming Court, we are willing to follow you to raise an army to restore the country, and swear to serve our Han court to the death. Please give us some kindness to the Ming court and let us eat this kind of divine noodles."

Seeing this situation, Zhang Zhi, who was worried about his subordinates' loyalty and morale, was of course relieved. After another calculation, Zhang Zhi came up with another idea and said intimately: "It is an opportunity. We should take advantage of this opportunity to strengthen the loyalty of these people to me."

Thinking of this, Zhang Zhi thought for a moment and soon said to the officials and servants in the hall: "All up, you are loyal to the Han Dynasty. I have taken the lead for the Han Dynasty. Go and cook more soup, and then everyone takes a bowl and a pair of chopsticks to prepare noodles."

Although there were only twenty or thirty people, the officers and officials immediately burst into a shocking cheering sound, and then rolled and rushed to the kitchen to boil water and get a bowl. Zhang Zhize said to Wu Lian Wenwu, who was already re-cooking, "Eat quickly, after eating, I will take you to see some things."

Wu Lian Wenwu agreed, and quickly mixed noodles and ate noodles again. After everyone put the bowls down, Zhang Zhi called Wu Lian Wenwu into the back hall, asked Zhang Jian to find an empty room casually, opened the door and said to everyone: "You can see clearly, is there nothing in this room?"

"Report to the Ming court, I saw clearly, there was nothing." Everyone replied.

"Very good." Zhang Zhi said again: "Now you all go out, all your backs are facing the door, and you are not allowed to peek."

Everyone agreed and said that they would go out with their backs to the room as they were ordered. As expected, no one turned around and peeked at them. Zhang Zhi was worried, so he closed the door with his own hands and blocked the crack with his body. Then he whispered to open the space warehouse and whispered: "Take out five hundred packets of instant noodles."

Still like magic, sixteen boxes, twenty packs of Huafeng Sanxian Yi noodles appeared out of thin air on the ground in this empty room. Zhang Zhi also opened the door and said to Wu Lian, the civil and military officials who were facing away from the door: "Okay, now you can turn around and come in."

As soon as he finished speaking, Wu Lian Wenwu turned around and turned around. After seeing countless instant noodles appearing out of thin air in the room, none of Wu Lian Wenwu screamed in surprise, and none of them rushed into the room quickly, rushed to the pile of instant noodles and picked them up and took them carefully. He screamed in surprise, "What's going on? Why are there so many divine faces all at once?"

"This is the divine power of Prime Minister Zhuge." Zhang Zhi closed the door and said to Wu Lian's civil and military officials: "Now I will tell you a secret. You must not spread it. In order to help me revive the Han Dynasty, Prime Minister Zhuge's spirit in heaven specially gave me a divine power, that is, he could take out the instant noodles he gave to our Han army at any time in a place without others. Besides me, no other person could take out the instant noodles he gave to our Han army."

"So don't worry." Zhang Zhi said again: "As long as I am here, you guys will have instant noodles that can be filled every day, but if I have any mistakes, you will never want to get even a pack of instant noodles again. Also, if anyone has a disagreement with the Han court and tries to betray me, then he will not only never eat instant noodles in his life, but I will never spare him!"

If it weren't for seeing Zhang Zhi create so many instant noodles with his own eyes, Wu Lian's civil and military officials would certainly not believe Zhang Zhi's threat of treacherous threats. But it was precisely because he saw such a miracle with his own eyes that Wu Lian's civil and military officials present not only did not have any doubts, but also knelt down to Zhang Zhi on both knees. Everyone made a poisonous oath, saying that he would support Zhang Zhi to raise an army to restore the Han Dynasty without hesitation, and the specific value of loyalty was greatly improved.

"Very good." Zhang Zhi nodded with satisfaction and said, "Then from now on, you are all my confidants. Remember, you must not tell anyone what I said just now, nor can you tell anyone, where did these instant noodles come from? Have you heard it clearly?"

"I heard it clearly." Wu Lian and the civil and military officials answered neatly.

Zhang Zhi nodded again and said, "Okay, now you will get a box of instant noodles by yourself and take it back for your family to taste. Take all the remaining instant noodles with you and take them to eat for those servants and officials outside. Then we quickly discuss the matter of the uprising. Today, this official tore up the official document of Chen Can's rebel traitor. He will definitely send troops to attack us immediately after receiving the news. There is not much time left for us."

According to Zhang Zhi's order, Wu Lian's civil and military officials first received a box of instant noodles with joy, and then took out the remaining instant noodles and distributed them to the officers and officials of the county temple. Then, amid the excitement and cheers of the officers, they discussed directly in the lobby of the county temple how to raise an army and restore the country.

The important matter of reviving the country is of course expanding the army and preparing for war. Although Zhang Zhi currently has instant noodles that can help his father, and at least there are some food storage in the county warehouse, so there is no need to worry about the issue of food and grass. However, given that the population of Wulian County is too small and there are still problems with weapons and equipment, Zhang Zhi and Wulian Wenwu discussed it carefully for a long time, but they could only decide to expand the army into six villages and more than 600 people, and then organize the county's personnel to replenish reliable personnel to form a team of 50 people for Zhang Zhi.

For the six camps planned to be expanded, Zhang Zhi decided to lead two camps each with Fu Gong, Zhao Quan and Zhu Xiang. The three of them also changed their name to Qu Jiang together. At the same time, they were promoted to Wu Lian's thief Cao to the county magistrate and presided over the security of the county.

The warehouse chief Zhang Ju also served as the county magistrate. In addition to continuing to take charge of the county warehouse, he was also responsible for commanding the Wulian Cao Cao and assisting Zhang Zhi in charge of military and political affairs. In addition, Zhang Zhi accepted Zhang Ju's suggestion and selected three people from the county temple officials to serve as the land Cao, resigned from Cao and the thief Cao, and supplemented the ten Caos in Wulian County.

In addition, Zhang Zhi adopted Fu Gong's suggestion and decided to hold a oath-taking meeting outside the Nanmen City of Wulian County the next day, and issued a manifesto to officially announce the revival of the Han Dynasty, calling on men of appropriate age to join the army.

After making this decision, Zhang Zhi said to Ji Cao Mosheng, who was responsible for managing and organizing the market: "Mo Ji Cao, at tomorrow's oath-taking meeting, you should prepare more firewood and some big pots, make more boiling soup, and prepare more bowls and chopsticks. I want the people participating in the oath-taking meeting to taste instant noodles to encourage the people's hearts, and also call on Wu Jian to join the army and replenish our soldiers as soon as possible."

Cao Mosheng agreed, and Fu Gongze reminded: "Ming Court, then you must arrange more personnel to maintain order, otherwise, your subordinates are worried that the scene will be in chaos."

Considering the slanderous appearance of Wu Lian Wenwu and the county temple servants before in front of the Instant Milk, Zhang Zhishen thought it was right and immediately ordered Zhao Quan to lead the troops of his subordinates to maintain order the next day to avoid chaos.

Zhao Quan agreed and then said, "The Ming court, the last general also had a suggestion. In Wulian County, the Mo family's surname is the most powerful in the Mawei area. The head of the family Mo Zhu has the highest prestige in the local area. The Mo family village where he lives is not only rich in food, but also has many slaves. I heard that there are many weapons and hidden households with no household registration. If we can get the support of the Mo family, we can not only get a lot of money, food and weapons immediately, but also a lot of soldiers. Otherwise, we will contact the Mo family and ask the Mo village leader Mo Zhu to come to our oath-taking meeting tomorrow and persuade him to pay and work to help us raise an army and restore the country."

It was Zhao Quan reminded that Zhang Zhicai found such a situation in Zhang Zhi's memory. In Wulian County, there was indeed a powerful landlord named Mo Zhu. Not only did he actually control the Mawei area where the most grain-produced in Wulian territory, there were hundreds of slaves in his family. I heard that there were also many people who were not registered in Wulian County Temple. However, the Mo family had too large power. Even Wulian County Temple did not dare to go to their village to carefully check the population and count the real population in the Mawei area.

Not only that, after carefully searching for the memory of Zhang Zhi, Zhang Zhi suddenly remembered that Ji Cao Mosheng, who had just been entrusted with the important task of organizing the oath-taking meeting, was also a member of the Mo family. It was also very likely that the Mo family was inserted into Wulian County Temple.

Thinking of this, Zhang Zhi quickly turned his gaze to Mo Sheng and asked, "Mo Ji Cao, if I remember correctly, Mo Zhu Mo Village Master seems to be your clan brother? In your opinion, is it possible that your clan brother agrees to help us raise an army and restore the country with all our might?"

Everyone's eyes turned to Mo Sheng, who was obviously embarrassed. After a while, hesitated and said: "Ming Court forgives the crime. Although Mo Zhu is a subordinate's brother, his subordinate is not familiar with him, and he can't guess what decision he will make."

"This guy doesn't seem to tell the truth." Zhang Zhichao said and concluded in his heart, but Zhang Zhi could not force Mo Sheng to give a positive answer. He could only say with a plan: "Then like this, take advantage of the time being, please ask the ghostwriter to write a letter to the leader of Mo Village for me, inviting him to come to Wulian City tomorrow to meet me, and let me talk to him personally and see what his attitude and position is towards our uprising and restoring the country."

"Ming Court, my subordinates' writing skills are still reasonable, let me write for you." Mo Sheng rushed to say.

Zhang Zhi agreed, and Mo Sheng hurriedly asked someone to bring the bamboo slips and brushes, and wrote a document for Zhang Zhi in front of everyone. Invited his patriarch Mo Zhu to come to meet Zhang Zhi. As a result, Zhang Ju suddenly stepped forward and attached himself to Zhang Zhi's ear and whispered: "Ming Court, be careful Mo Zhu. I have met him several times. I feel that this person is very ambitious and is quite selfish. I am afraid he won't agree to help us so easily."
