Chapter 247 Tofu (2)

Yang Wu nodded, his face full of curiosity. "That's right, this is the first time we've seen and tasted such delicious tofu! Li Quan, you've been traveling around for so many years, have you ever had the pleasure of seeing and tasting such a rare thing?"

Li Quan shook his head and said slowly, "I've been staying in the mountains learning from my master, and my daily meals are very simple and crude. The food I've seen and tasted today is already the most diverse and richest I've ever experienced in my life. Not to mention the tofu, the many foods here are beyond my reach! I originally thought these were delicacies only found in the prosperous capital, but I never expected that even someone as knowledgeable as Uncle Yang Wu would never have the opportunity to see them."

Upon hearing this, Yu Bo and Wang Xiangdong exchanged glances, their hearts stirring. Each of them caught a subtle glimmer of surprise in the depths of the other's eyes—business opportunity! Could it be that in the vast Zhou Dynasty, no one had yet produced and sold this delicious tofu?

At this moment, Mr. Zhu, who had been standing silently by the side, suddenly spoke up. He looked at Wang Xiangdong and said, "Xiangdong, since we've come to this point, why don't you tell us in detail how this tofu is made?"

Wang Xiangdong nodded after hearing this, then turned his gaze to Brother Yang Wu and asked softly, "Brother Yang Wu, I'd like to ask if you have soybeans in the Great Zhou? Or perhaps soybeans would be fine too."

Upon hearing this, Yang Wu answered without hesitation, "Of course we do! We have some on our farm. But they're usually used to feed horses. Especially among the rations we have for our army, there must be a lot of soybeans."

Yu Bo was very surprised when he heard this and asked quickly, "Don't people here eat this kind of thing?"

Yang Wu seemed to have heard the biggest joke in the world and couldn't help but blurt out: "Who would eat that kind of stuff?" After saying that, he curled his lips, showing a look of disgust.

After hearing what Yang Wu said, Zhu's father, Wang Xiangdong and Yu Bo looked at each other, not knowing what to say for a moment.

However, Yang Jiu, who had been quietly listening to their conversation, suddenly seemed to have discovered a new world. His eyes suddenly brightened. His face was filled with surprise, and he couldn't wait to ask Wang Xiangdong, "Guard Wang, could this delicious tofu be made from soybeans?"

Wang Xiangdong smiled and nodded in response, "That's right."

Now it was Yang Wu's turn to be stunned. What did he say just now?

"This...this...who would have thought that this white and tender tofu is actually made of soybeans? They look completely different and have nothing in common."

Wang Xiangdong: "Yes. No one else should know except us.

However, turning soybeans into tofu isn't that simple; it requires a complex and arduous process. He paused, then continued, "Soybeans are incredibly nutritious. Besides making delicious tofu, they can also be ground into fragrant soy milk or made into smooth and tender tofu pudding! In our area, soy milk and fried dough sticks are a classic breakfast combination."

Although they were already full, Yang Jiu and Li Quan couldn't help swallowing their saliva when they heard Wang Xiangdong talk about soy milk and fried dough sticks.
