In the late Qing Dynasty, Sichuan Province's water transport fortress Chongqing.

When the rapids and shallows everywhere in the Yangtze River and Jialing River blocked the ships from moving forward, many boatmen were using human power to pull the boats and sneaking them here.

The industry of "traveler" not only appeared in the Qing Dynasty, but also had many of these people in previous dynasties.

They specialize in helping people pull boats by ropes. It is obvious that in ancient times, ship transportation was an indispensable mode of transportation. Coal, wood, agricultural and sideline products and daily necessities were transported in and out by ships. When a ship encountered dangerous shoals or stranded, it was necessary to rely on many people to pull boats together. The profession of boatmen was born.

Hundreds of boats competed on the river, coal, timber, agricultural and sideline products and daily necessities were transported in and out by ships, and the boatman played a key role at that time.

They bent their bodies, carried stiff ropes, and limped forward in a gait. Many of them are not wearing clothes when they are pulling. In warm seasons such as late spring, summer, and early autumn, they are mostly naked, and even when facing the big girl, they are calm.

In order to resist the coldness of winter and the dampness of summer, they are particularly spicy and exciting in this place, that is, in Chongqing.

Chongqing, Sichuan, is an extremely important metropolis and a food city of this era.

At this time, Qin Shou, Dudu and another oil bottle came here.

After booking an inn at a "one-stop" restaurant, I went to the second floor to order a table of local specialty food.

Looking at the oil bottle in front of him, Qin Shou hugged his hands and felt speechless.

The reason for being speechless is naturally because of the oil bottle in front of you... Qin Shou did not recognize this person, but he was his apprentice.

Since Silang was killed by people from the dark cuisine industry, Qin Shou has never accepted an apprentice again. However, the girl who looks only in her 10s in front of him is his new apprentice.

In addition to being speechless or speechless, there is an inexplicable apprentice...

However, this little girl is very different from Shiro before.

First of all, the little girl is the only daughter of a hotel owner in Beijing. According to Dudu, the boss's relatives are also high-ranking officials of the court, and his status is comparable to that of Admiral Li.

Furthermore, this female apprentice seems to be more cunning than Silang? As for the talent of cooking, I don’t know, because Qin Shou then realized that he had such a cheap apprentice.

Although he was speechless, Qin Shou felt that this might be a good thing.

Because Qin Shou has a system, he is never stingy with money, so he is never stingy with food, accommodation and transportation.

Look, the three of them ordered a table of dishes, with more than ten dishes.

Of course, there is no problem of waste, because Qin Shou would ask the boss to give it to the beggars for food that he could not finish.

"Is this Chongqing dish? Very... so spicy, my tongue is numb, I can't taste it at all!"

Qin Shou's female apprentice Bai Rongrong stretched out her tongue and looked at the food in front of her with sweat all over her face.

Steamed and spicy hotpot, tofu rice, spicy chicken, Maoxuwang and other dishes.

These are Chongqing specialties, and they are the kind that cannot be stopped after eating.

Guru, Guru.

Bai Rongrong felt a little better after drinking a large bowl of water.

Seeing this, Qin Shou couldn't help but shake his head and said, "Rongrong, don't you know how to eat Sichuan cuisine? Pick out all the peppers and peppers and eat only meat. Only a few people like to eat peppers and peppers in Sichuan cuisine..."

Dudu, who was standing beside him, couldn't help but smile when he saw this: "Rongrong is a child who grew up in the capital. It's normal that he hasn't eaten Sichuan cuisine very much."

"Hehe, so that's it."

Bai Rongrong then tasted the boy chicken in front of her again, and only picked up the chicken part and put it in her mouth. This time she finally tasted the real deliciousness of Sichuan cuisine.

"Oh, the chicken has moderate spicy flavor and tender meat. This boy chicken is so delicious!"

Bai Rongrong showed an innocent smile and said to Qin Shou: "Master, you are really, you have to tell me this kind of thing earlier~"

Qin Shou couldn't help but sigh in his heart and said secretly: Who knows that you are so ignorant of Sichuan cuisine. It seems that you are a "newbie" who knows nothing.

"I thought you knew it a long time ago, so I'm talking to you about other tips on Sichuan cuisine now, so as not to have such ridiculous mistakes in the future..."

While eating the dishes, Qin Shou talked about some knowledge about Sichuan cuisine for the newly accepted apprentice.

Finally, half an hour later, Qin Shou, Dudu and Bai Rongrong had enough food and drink, and then rested in the inn for a night, and arrived at the port of Chongqing the next day.

Chongqing Port

It is the largest main hub port for inland rivers in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River and an important transportation route in the Qing Dynasty. It takes a boat here to go to many places.

It's always busy here, and it's the same today.

But today, there seemed to be another small accident.

"Hey, can't drive the boat?"

"We made an appointment last night?"

At this time, at the port, a large group of people stood at the dock, anxiously waiting for the arrival of the ship.

But the girl in front of her with beautiful eyebrows and long black hair, who was sadly told everyone that she could not drive the boat today.

Magnolia, like her name, is a very beautiful girl.
