Chapter 55: Immortal Characters!
At this time, Jiang Lijun had already taken off his chef's hat, took off his chef's uniform, returned to the image of a middle-aged fat man, and took the towel handed by the assistant to wipe his sweat.
Another assistant helped him put the soup in a small white porcelain bowl for the audience to taste.
This is already a familiar process, and the assistants no longer need to be instructed by the boss.
The shallow white porcelain bowl has a jade-like luster, presumably it will not be of ordinary quality, the soup is served in a small porcelain bowl, with a milky luster, and it looks very thick.
The soup is a little golden yellow, perhaps because of the ingredients. In short, the fragrance, the color, and the form are enough to completely arouse people's appetite.
Jiang Lijun explained with a smile: "This dish is called 'Liujin Phoenix Tour', which was created by my ancestor and passed on to my master and then to me. Shizu used to be an imperial chef, of course, now this is not popular, but this dish is also from the former palace, and the method is particularly exquisite. ”
After a few simple words, the origin of this dish has been explained, and the method is particularly particular.
Zhou Heng then remembered that the last time Boss Jiang went to his house, he said that their line of inheritance was broken, and it was all tied to him.
At that time, Jiang Xiaoxuan also said that he would transfer this responsibility to her, and he did not object.
Now that I think about it, it really has a beginning!
No wonder Boss Jiang would make such a high-standard private dish here, it turns out that the ancestor is an imperial chef, and he has a background!
And thinking that what he tasted at the moment was the dishes that the emperor had eaten before, his heart was also a little comfortable.
Some court dishes also like to talk about the name, the name likes to be auspicious, what "auspicious wishes", what "Fu Shouquan", what "flowers bloom and wealth".
For example, the name of this dish is "Liujin Phoenix Tour", in the final analysis, it is a local chicken, after adding ingredients, the soup is stewed golden brown.
Zhou Heng tasted the soup a little, ate some crispy stewed chicken, and immediately praised from the bottom of his heart: "Good ingredients really require good craftsmanship, and they are much stronger than eating at my house." ”
At that time, when he was at home, he only stewed mushrooms dried at home, and he didn't pay attention to this and that, although it was already delicious, but from the bottom of his heart, it couldn't compare to this.
After all, this is fine cooking, and the accessories are also unique, and Boss Jiang does have attainments in cooking, and one should be said.
Several old gold medal food critics were also full of praise after eating, and said "good, good" in a row.
Originally, inviting them to come was to cheer, but whether it was a real boast or a fake boast, it was still somewhat visible.
The commercial touting of these people is quite tricky, and they can boast from angles that ordinary people can't imagine, and they are reasonable, which makes people not understand and feel that "holding grass seems to be really like that".
In short, a good compliment.
No wonder they all have a mouth, they can be gold medal food critics.
Jiang Lijun was very happy that his experiment was really successful.
He had only been dictated by the master, and he had never seen the real thing, and he didn't know what the peerless good chicken described by the master was, but he made it like this.
The sense of accomplishment in my heart is indescribable.
It's strange, it's a feeling that money can't buy.
Jiang Xiaoxuan also tasted it, then looked thoughtful, and finally said: "Dad, I probably know a little bit, why are you so obsessed with this dish!"
It's really worth his persistence!
The phrase "delicious" is no longer enough to describe this soup.
She glanced at Zhou Heng, fate was really strange, this dish, which had been broken for nearly a hundred years, was actually completed by the ingredients he cultivated.
If it weren't for him, I don't know if it would take decades for this dish to reappear, and maybe never have a chance.
All the people who have seen or eaten this dish have already fallen asleep, but my father has been passed down by the master until now.
After such a long time, my father has not forgotten.
Inheriting this kind of thing really has its own unique charm.
In the past, she was very disgusted that her father always imposed this kind of inheritance on her, so she resisted from the bottom of her heart, and she didn't want to do this, but now she understands it somewhat.
There are some things that are worth paying for.
She suddenly tilted her head, smiled at Zhou Heng and said, "Thank you!"
Zhou Heng was inexplicable.
Jiang Lijun saw the reaction of the audience, especially his daughter's, and immediately felt refreshed, and said, "Then I'll try it too." ”
The assistant was already serving him a small bowl.
He scooped a spoonful of soup into his mouth, took a sip, and the refreshing fragrance entered his heart and spleen, and his whole body felt comfortable. He seemed to see the small master standing in front of him, smiling at him and nodding his head.
Jiang Lijun's heart was slightly sour, and his throat was a little choked.
Decades have passed!
The tasting was a complete success, and the next step is to move on to the promotion and release of the new dishes.
These are no longer hands-on to him, the private restaurant already has a very smooth process, and he is familiar with all this.
Food critic Lao Wu quipped: "Mr. Jiang, it's time to change the name of your private restaurant, and change it to the imperial dining room, which is just right and worthy of the name." ”
After speaking, several old men laughed.
Jiang Lijun also followed them hahaha.
After sending away a few old food critics, Jiang Lijun left Zhou Heng behind and asked him about renew his chickens.
Zhou Heng suddenly realized, no wonder Boss Jiang is so close to him, and he has to follow a layman like himself to taste the dishes, it turns out that he wants to get acquainted with each other, the point is here!
I have to say that business veterans have unique thinking.
His work experience in those years was completely useless with him.
He was still curious before, could it be that this big boss Jiang has to be so close to the supplier every time he purchases a new ingredient?
The old rivers and lakes and the old rivers and lakes, I can't afford to provoke them!
Zhou Heng also had to laugh and said, "Now the chickens are still walking all over the ground, and they can only eat fine rice, which is very early." ”
Jiang Lijun mentioned again that if he wants to buy this batch of chickens, he can pay a deposit now.
Zhou Heng laughed and didn't answer.
Jiang Lijun was not aggressive, and used roundabout tactics to chat with Zhou Heng about the affairs of their village for a long time to shorten the distance.
He even mentioned from time to time that he was actually from the countryside and had a hard time when he was a child, but now he wants to go back to the past and return to the green mountains and green waters.
There may be a real part in these words, after all, he is very emotional when he speaks.
If this is all pretended, it is really that the Oscar winner can't compare to him.
In fact, the more desperate he was to buy the latter batch of chickens, the more Zhou Heng wanted to run it himself.
I always feel that if the more treasures, the more I hold them?
Jiang Lijun suddenly asked him how he was preparing for the contract for fish farming.
Zhou Heng thought to himself, this boss's memory is really good, he seemed to have mentioned it casually at that time? He didn't pay attention to it, and the big boss actually remembered.
Alas, in fact, he is really willing to deal with such a character more, at least he can learn more about various means, isn't it?
A little bit of subtlety and a little more insight is really much better than blind effort.
Zhou Heng said that he had already laid fish fry, waiting to grow up slowly, and planned to buy a boat in the near future for future use.
And after listening to him say which fish he raised, the big boss was also very interested.
I don't know if the interest is true or not, but Zhou Heng can detect that he wants to get closer to himself by starting up.
It's not the 6,000 chicks!
Zhou Heng felt that he was a little better now.
After talking about the topic a little, Boss Jiang did not continue to go deeper, and after inviting him to have dinner in the store, he didn't bother him and let him rest.
The next day, Zhou Heng felt that there was nothing to do, so he said goodbye to his old colleagues on WeChat, and also said goodbye to Boss Jiang, and was ready to buy a high-speed rail ticket to go back.
It's not the Spring Festival season, you can buy tickets at any time, and it's still empty.
After buying a high-speed rail ticket and taking the subway to the South Railway Station, a phone call suddenly came, which was the area code of another province, a place I had never been to before.
If there was a prefix of "high-frequency call number", he hung up the phone directly, but it didn't, so he answered in confusion.
The other party spoke Mandarin with a thick dialect, which he could barely understand, and came up with a sentence: "Hey, are you Mr. Zhou? I was introduced by Boss Jiang, and I am a shipbuilder." ”
Zhou Heng: "......"
Shipbuilders?
When he chatted with Boss Jiang yesterday, he only mentioned it, this early in the morning - oh no, it was already morning, and he introduced the shipbuilders, and they all called?
Is Boss Jiang too active, or is this shipbuilder too active?
Since Boss Jiang was mentioned, it shouldn't be a lie, Zhou Heng listened.
They said that they were the inheritors of the local shipyard, and they heard that Mr. Zhou was preparing to look for a boat, so they called to see if there was any opportunity for everyone to cooperate.
In terms of price, please rest assured, Boss Jiang once donated to them and was the benefactor of this old art, so they only charged a cost price and would not make a profit.
When you hear this, you know that this is another sunset industry.
Nowadays, there are really too many such old crafts.
Most of the industries are a fate - the seventies and eighties were affected by the times, and a little later, a large number of scientific and technological products, cheap and durable, washed the old craft industry to the ground.
There is no way, if the times are to progress, some things will always be eliminated naturally.
Although he sighed, he couldn't do anything.
Just like the shadow puppet show in Zhou Heng's place, it used to have the title of "Hometown of Shadow Puppetry", but now the inheritance is also unsustainable.
However, I didn't expect that Boss Jiang would also donate such an industry, and he was really rich.
What kind of fairy is it to open a private restaurant and make no money, it is so expensive to buy ingredients, and there is money to donate to others!
How can I say that? I can't do it at the moment, but I want to do it.
Hearing others say that only the cost price was charged, Zhou Heng immediately shook his head politely: "What's so embarrassing about this? Your industry is already in a recession, so you can't count it like this." If everybody is like that, how can you continue?"
The other party suddenly smiled and said: "It's no such thing, Boss Jiang is the first time to introduce friends to us, so we also attach great importance to it." ”
Well, I don't know if it's true, so let's just take it as such.
But the transaction will not be closed with a phone call, and the other party gave him a web address for him to look at on the Internet for himself, which has everything and is very detailed.
Look at it, if you need to, you can contact him again.
Zhou Heng hung up the phone, entered the station, and went home.
