didn't ask Xia Jie to say more, Song Xiaodong ran to the kitchen very interestingly, took out a pair of chopsticks, put them in front of Johnson, and served him a bowl of hot porridge with preserved eggs and lean meat.

Johnson thanked Song Xiaodong with a smile on his face: "Thank you!"

Song Xiaodong naturally understood what the other party said, he still had this English level, and replied politely.

“nothanks！”

Xia Jie couldn't help but smile after hearing this: "Mr. Johnson, I don't have any preparations, be simple, eat enough." ”

Johnson shook his head with a look of trepidation: "No, no, no, you are a magical mountain village master, and the food you make is delicious, and I am already very satisfied if I am lucky enough to eat it." ”

With that, Johnson picked up the soup spoon, scooped up a spoonful of preserved egg and lean porridge and put it into his mouth.

The porridge with preserved eggs and lean pork that had just come out of the pot was still a little hot, and Johnson hurriedly fanned the wind with his hand to drive away the burning gas, and then chewed it slowly.

The deliciousness of the lean meat and the salty aroma of the preserved eggs are perfectly blended, and the thick porridge juice flows into the mouth, which is really ...... Is......

For a while, Johnson couldn't find the words to describe this unique taste, and finally froze.

Song Xiaodong couldn't help but stretch out his hand and shook it in front of him: "Hey, bearded foreign friend, what's wrong with you?"

Johnson came back to his senses and exclaimed, "Oh my God!

Song Xiaodong sat next to him, and was suddenly taken aback, muttering, "Hey, this beard, why are you still babbling." ”

Johnson looked at the porridge bowl in front of him and sighed heartily.

"The saltiness and aroma are just right, I have never eaten such a delicious porridge, what are the black, black, blue and blue pieces in this porridge, it tastes elastic and elastic, and it is great with lean meat!"

Song Xiaodong couldn't understand the other party's babbling, so he couldn't help but open the translation software with his mobile phone and translate what he wanted to say.

"What's all the fuss about? I won't tell you that my brother is the youngest special chef ever!"

Johnson's eyes widened when he heard this: "Walter, Mr. Jay is the youngest special chef ever, no wonder he's so powerful!"

"But...... What level is that special chef, there is a faint sense of familiarity. ”

Song Xiaodong smiled mysteriously, he wouldn't tell this foreigner that this was a little master of China.

Seeing this, Xia Jie couldn't help but wave his hand and said, "Mr. Johnson, hurry up and eat, let's talk about something after eating, the porridge won't taste good when it's cold for a while." ”

“okok”

Johnson nodded again and again, and began to concentrate on the seemingly simple, but extraordinarily delicious food in front of him.

If you take out the preserved eggs alone, for most foreigners, it may be as terrifying as stinky dry, even Johnson is no exception.

But the combination of shredded meat and white porridge can make him happy.

The leisurely lunch time passed quickly.

A large casserole of preserved eggs and lean porridge was eaten by three big men.

After tea and dinner, Johnson, who came from afar, opened his mouth to express his intention.

"Mr. Xia, I came to China this time, firstly, because I watched a lot of your cooking videos in the United States, and I admired it and wanted to come and meet you in person. ”

"The second is that I recently wanted to participate in a cooking competition, the recipe is strictly in accordance with what you taught, but no matter how I tried, the taste always felt a little wrong, and then I found out that the problem was in an important condiment, pepper oil, so this time, I wanted to order some with you. ”

Xia Jie smiled when he heard this: "Mr. Johnson, I know your intentions, you can also order pepper oil, but I don't know how much you want to order?"

Johnson lowered his head and thought for a moment, then stretched out a slap and said, "Book a thousand catties first, is it okay?"

A direct order of 1,000 catties at a time, this can be regarded as a big customer.

Especially for foreign customers, it can be regarded as earning foreign exchange through exports!

It's just that I don't know what the current output of the pepper oil processing factory run by Liu Youcai is, and the quality must be put first, so I can't smash my own signboard.

Thinking of this, Xia Jie turned his head to look at Song Xiaodong: "Xiaodong, let's go, take us to Uncle Cai's pepper oil processing factory." ”

Song Xiaodong made an OK gesture, got up and said, "No problem." ”

......

Meanwhile, New Zealand, Otago.

Frank pushes a food cart and shouts at the harbor where tourists gather.

"Rabbit meat! Fresh white chopped hare meat!

Isabella played with her phone and followed behind her father.

Some time ago, after she came up with the idea of opening a restaurant.

Frank discussed it with his family and thought it was a good idea, because the vast plains were overrun with hares, so he didn't have to worry about the ingredients.

The family thought that this was a good idea, and it was better than guarding a farm with a serious fiscal deficit, and they all agreed.

At Isabella's suggestion, Frank started selling food trucks as a pilot and then opened a restaurant if the results were good.

But for several days, no matter how hard Frank shouted, there were very few customers willing to buy, which made Frank a little frustrated.

"Baby, you said that we have been out for a few days, and the daily turnover is not more than 100, why is this?"

"Daddy, don't worry, let me think about it. ”

After that, Isabella kept looking at the rabbit meat video of Xiaojie in the mountain village, looking for the key to the problem.

In the video, a total of two kinds of rabbit meat are given, one is to cut the rabbit for white, and the other is to make the overlord rabbit.

The Overlord Rabbit looks very spicy and does not suit the taste of Europeans, so Frank and Isabella sell the White Chop Rabbit.

The method of white rabbit chopping is simple, and the taste depends more on the dipping sauce, and the dipping sauce is also made in strict accordance with what Xiaojie Yamamura taught in the video.

In the first few days, the traffic was good, which gave Frank and Isabella some hope, but then it was really worse day by day, and now, there are no more people to care about.

"How's it going, baby, have you found the problem?"

Frank asked anxiously.

Isabella pouted and shook her head.

"Daddy, I've watched this video hundreds of times, and I know for sure that there is nothing wrong with the way we made it. ”

Frank sighed.

"Since we have no problem making it, could it be that this dish of Xiaojie in the mountain village itself is just an ordinary home-cooked dish, which is not suitable for sale. ”

Isabeth stretched out her thin, white fingers and drew circles on her chin.

"No, my friend has also reviewed the video of Xiaojie in the mountain village, and it tastes delicious. ”

"Even the food made by ordinary people is so delicious, it is not difficult to imagine how delicious the original version made by Xiaojie in the mountain village is, and it is absolutely no problem to sell it, so Daddy, I think the problem may still be with us, maybe it is a problem with the seasoning. ”

Frank said with a frown.

"But our seasonings are also bought from Chinatown, and a bottle is more than ten New Zealand dollars. ”

"Daddy, expensive is not necessarily good, there are also international students from China at the University of Otago, wait until I go back and ask them. ”

Just as the father and daughter were discussing the problem word by word.

A sightseeing boat slowly docks in the harbor.

Isabella put her arm around Frank's shoulders.

"Daddy, Daddy, there's a pleasure boat coming over there, let's go over there. ”

Frank nodded, holding back his negativity, smiling hard, and secretly praying in his heart that someone on this ship would want to eat rabbit meat.

The port drop-off area is full of people.

Perhaps Frank's prayer had an effect, and a tall Chinese beauty wearing sunglasses walked over slowly.

With a smile on her face, she spoke in fluent English.

"Hmm, I really didn't expect to see white rabbit meat here, boss, bring me a small portion. ”

"A small portion of seven New Zealand dollars, please wait. ”

Frank was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly forked out a piece of rabbit meat from the pot with a fork, picked up the kitchen knife, quickly sliced it, and handed it over with the dipping sauce.

After the tall beauty took it, she took a piece of paper money and handed it to Isabella, and praised it.

"It's your daughter, it's beautiful. ”

Frank bowed slightly and made a gentleman's salute.

"Thank you for the compliment, this guest, I have a small request, I hope you can give us feedback on how this dish tastes after eating?"

The tall beauty bowed slightly.

"No problem. ”

With that, she picked up a piece of rabbit meat with a toothpick, dipped it in the sauce, and put it in her mouth, and then an indescribable look appeared on her face.

Isabella saw that the guest's expression was not very good, and hurriedly asked.

"What's wrong? Is it a bad taste?"

The tall beauty frowned slightly, pursed her lips and said.

"How to say it, it's not that it tastes bad, it's just that this is a Chinese dish, but the taste is a little European, a little light!"

"Well, how do you describe this feeling, I think it's a bit hollow. ”

Isabella asked, "Is it a problem with the heat, or is it a problem with the seasoning?"

The tall beauty bowed slightly.

"The heat of rabbit meat is not bad, the problem is probably in the seasoning, especially the pepper oil, the fragrance is not strong, and the hemp taste is very light. ”

Isabella's eyes lit up when she heard this, she finally knew what the problem was, and hurriedly thanked the tall beauty in front of her.

"Thank you so much. ”

The tall beauty waved her hand indifferently.

"It's okay, it's just a gesture, and I'm not a professional food critic, so I can only give you a limited amount of advice, and it's more up to you to figure it out for yourself. ”

Isabella took Frank's arm and shook it excitedly.

"Daddy, I've finally found the problem, look, I'll just say that the recipe of the mountain village Xiaojie can't be wrong! ”
