Traveling through troubled times: Princess disguises herself as a man and becomes a soldier to earn

Mo Yuan thought about it, and she also felt that it would be better to buy food in her magical space, but she had to buy it in batches. If she bought too much at one time, she might be targeted.

"Then I will also buy food and store it at your place. When you buy, spread it out. Otherwise, if you buy too much at once, the royal family will notice it. It's better to be careful."

"Okay, let's leave it to Big Brother. He's a businessman, so he's definitely more meticulous than us when it comes to these things, and it's less likely to leave traces."

"Okay, I'll tell my brother then."

After Jiang Li finished speaking, he felt hungry again. He touched his rumbling stomach and said helplessly, "It's right to buy food. My stomach is a bottomless pit. I will go crazy without food."

Mo Yuan: ...It seems like he has only finished eating for less than half an hour and he is already hungry. Well, it is more cost-effective to use all the money to buy food. He also needs to work hard to earn money. He can't even support his wife.

It would be too embarrassing if that got out.

"I'll go ask the boatman if there's anything to eat."

Jiang Li waved his hand and raised his chin, motioning him to look down.

The rolling river water rolled, and a flash of understanding flashed in his eyes: "I see, Xiaoli wants to eat fish, right? Then I will go to the carriage to get the fishing net, and we can cook on the deck. It's nice to enjoy the breeze."

"Yes, that's what I mean. Let's go get the tools and seasonings. We'll have a buffet and eat whatever is served."

Mo Yuan asked casually, "If we catch a water snake, we'll eat it, too."

Jiang Li nodded. Of course he would eat it. Snake meat was delicious and could be made into snake soup. If it wasn’t poisonous, why not eat it? It would be such a waste to throw it away. It was shameful to waste food.

"eat……"

"okay, I get it."

The two men moved their things onto the deck and started catching fish.

When Mo Jue came out of the cabin, he saw that they were already roasting. The aroma kept wafting over. He slowly walked over, lowered his head and took a look, but didn't understand what they were doing.

Jiang Li raised his head, met his confused eyes, and called out, "Brother, you're awake. A Yuan, bring the stool over here."

"what is this?"

"Teppanyaki, brother, you haven't tried it before? It's just putting oil on the iron plate and frying it. It's delicious and convenient. You don't need to use a big pot."

Mo Jue looked under the iron plate and saw a barrel-shaped object. Could it be firewood inside? But they didn't seem to bring firewood on board. So what was they using to burn the fire?

Jiang Li brushed oil and added seasoning while explaining: "Brother, this is a small stove. You can open it and put charcoal in it. It burns with charcoal. It can be used for a long time and is also very easy to carry."

"If we use firewood, it will waste too much firewood and it will be inconvenient to carry."

"…That makes sense. Xiaoli is really smart."

"Hey, I just do more research on food. Brother, try this. This is grilled fish fillet, brushed with a little bit of honey. It's not too sweet."

Mo Jue reached out to take it and looked at the fish fillets in the bamboo bowl. The skin was brown and burnt with a hint of sweetness that kept going into his nose. He knew before he put it in his mouth that the taste would definitely be good.

"Thank you, Xiaoli."

"You're too polite, big brother. I have something to discuss with you after dinner. I'll trouble you to take care of it then."

"Well, if you have anything to say, just tell me. We will be a family in the future, so don't be polite. I came here just to assist you. If I can do something well, then I won't seem so useless."

Jiang Li smiled with dimples showing: "No, big brother is very capable. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have been able to negotiate such a high price last time. I made a lot more money."

Mo Yuan pursed his lips and smiled: "Yes, big brother, there is no need to be so polite. Eat it while it's hot. This fish is very tender and tastes very good."

"it is good……"

The others were attracted by the fragrance and kept swallowing their saliva.

Someone was brave enough to come over and ask, "Young Master, I don't know what this is called. Are you selling it? Can we buy some?"

Jiang Li shook his head: "If we don't sell it, we won't even have enough to eat."

"Hey, okay then."

She is not short of money, so why should she sell food? She won't sell any amount of it. Selling that little is useless. Besides, she is a rich woman now, the kind of rich woman who can live comfortably, so she won't be so shallow.

Little did I know that the slap in the face would come so quickly.

A thin man, holding his chest and feeling a little uncomfortable, stood up and went outside, ready to take a walk. The servant reached out and supported him: "Sir, you are weak, you'd better not go to the deck. It's windy there and you'll easily catch a cold."

Yan Shanbai looked at him stubbornly: "No, I want to go out. If you try to stop me again, don't follow me out next time."

"Well...Okay, let the little boy help you."

As soon as the two of them walked out of the cabin, they smelled a strange fragrance. They sniffed and walked towards the place where the fragrance came from. Sure enough, they saw three people surrounding a strange thing and doing something.

Yan Shanbai moved closer and felt a little greedy. He had always been anorexic, but he didn't expect to come across something that made him hungry here. The desire in his eyes was obvious.

Jiang Li looked up and met those eyes. He glanced at the skinny person and was a little surprised. How could someone be so thin? Could he have some serious illness? He was so thin that he looked unrecognizable.

"Sir, are you okay?"

"I...I want to buy this from you to try, is that okay?"

Just as she was about to refuse, the man took out a gold ingot from somewhere and handed it to her: "Is this enough? If not, there are still a lot. Just let me have a little."

Jiang Li swallowed the words of refusal that were about to come out of his mouth, stretched out his hand to take it, and smiled and changed his words: "No problem, these are enough, I will make one for you right away, if you don't mind, just sit here and wait for a while."

"Alas, I am a soft-hearted person. I cannot bear to see others suffer. I wonder what happened to you, young master, and why you are so thin and weak."

Others: ...Bullshit, when they asked before, we didn’t give them any face and refused to sell it to them. Why are you changing your mind now?

Jiang Li: Nonsense, they throw gold at us and you just talk, so of course the treatment will be different, there's nothing to compare.

Yan Shanbai smiled helplessly, "I have a bad heart and have been picky about food since I was young. I can't eat anything that doesn't suit my taste. If I force myself to eat, I will spit it out. I am really helpless."

Oh, it turned out to be anorexia. She had seen patients like that in her previous life. They were very miserable. They wanted to eat, but their bodies resisted. In the end, they developed a physiological resistance. They would vomit after eating, and finally died of organ failure.

"I see. You can try it, if it suits your taste, I have other recipes that I can give to you. Maybe they can cure your illness."
