Chapter 493: The World Heritage Application is Successful
"Mr. Williams, please try this. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info" Kim Tae-hyun unveiled a lacquer box in front of him, and there were several colorful dumplings inside.
"The color is very beautiful!" Williams said, the dumplings were very bright in color and different in appearance.
The green one is crescent-shaped, the golden one is ingot-shaped, and the white one is round......
Williams picked up a white round dumpling and put it in his mouth and took a gentle bite, and the rich juice of the filling immediately splashed out.
"Wow! delicious and juicy!" Williams exclaimed, then smacked his lips, "And there is a unique floral scent, very good smell!"
"Of course!" Kim Tae-hyun's face showed a hint of smugness: "In addition to specially raised beef, this dumpling is also added with very precious saffron, so it has this aroma." ”
"And what about this? What are these dumplings made of?" Williams said, pointing to the golden, golden-like dumpling on the plate.
"This is our Korean golden dumplings with very thin gold leaf on top. ”
"Is it real gold?" Williams was stunned.
"It's real gold, and it's more than 99 percent pure. Kim Taehyun was satisfied with Williams's surprised expression: "Of course, because this gold leaf is extremely thin, it is completely harmless to the human body." ”
"It was unexpected. Williams used a fork to put the golden dumplings into his mouth and chewed: "Well, in addition to the tender meat filling, there is a cool taste in it, is this mint?"
"Mr. Williams, the filling of the dumplings is not mint, but wild Korean ginseng, which is countless times more precious than mint!"
"Ginseng, no wonder!" Williams licked his lips as if he had a realization: "This cool taste not only makes the meat filling more delicious, but also removes the oiliness in it, which is very delicious." ”
"If you like it!" Kim Tae-hyun laughed.
Next, Kim Tae-hyun led Williams to taste cold noodles, Korean-style rice dumplings and other foods. Looking at Williams' satisfied expression, Kim Tae-hyun's hanging heart finally let go.
"By the way, Mr. Williams, what about your colleagues, why don't you come and try our food?" asked Kim Tae-hyun tentatively after a round of shopping.
"My colleagues, they've already arrived, so they've all tasted it. Williams looked at Kim Tae-hyun and replied with a smirk.
"Arrived early, where?" Kim Tae-hyun was taken aback.
"Mr. Jin, since it's an evaluation, of course it has to be anonymous, so it's fair. Williams replied.
"This ......" Hearing this, Kim Tae-hyun broke out in a cold sweat: "Mr. Williams, take your time and see for yourself, I'll be busy first." ”
"Okay. ”
"Bastard! This way!" Kim Tae-hyun shouted as he walked up to Park Jin-wook's side.
"What's wrong, President?" Park Jung-wook asked.
"Let me ask you, have the officials of the organizing committee been here just now?"
"No, it's just ordinary people. Park Jung-wook replied.
"That's not good, these officials must be mixed in with these ordinary people, maybe they have already tasted our food!"
Kim Tae-hyun's intestines were all remorseful, and he knew that he would not separate these precious ingredients, and mixed them all into ordinary dishes for the public to taste.
"Ahh
"Hurry up and tell the public to taste haute cuisine and ordinary cuisine at once. ”
"Understood. ”
……
"Can you give me another bowl?" said a black man with a shaved head walking over to the board with a large bowl that had been empty.
"Absolutely. Liu Mang nodded: "But sir, you have already eaten three bowls, do you still want to eat? We have other delicacies here, don't you want to try them?"
"Oh, I've tried it, but I love this noodle the most!" the black man sighed, "This spicy soup mixed with noodles is so intoxicating." ”
"Alright then, wait a minute. Liu Mang spoke, but his hand didn't stop, and he immediately threw a noodle into the pot.
After boiling for about two or three minutes, Li Ruonan quickly scooped it up, picked it into a large bowl that had prepared the base, then poured fresh soup on it, and scooped in a spoonful of fried 'hats' to cover it.
"Sir, please use it. ”
"Uh-huh...... the black man smiled, picked up the noodles and tasted them.
"Master Liu Mang, hello. After ordering noodles for the black man, a tall, middle-aged man walked over with an old man wearing a sunhat and crutches.
"Old man, are you here too?" The two of them were in Los Angeles, and Liu Mang made them the old man with a trouser belt and his son Wei Nianhua.
"Yes, we have eaten things in China for thousands of years, and we must not let some sticks snatch them!" The old gentleman put his cane on the ground and made a 'clang' sound: "The three family slaves dare to shout! When I followed the political commissars to Seoul, they were still gnawing on their nests! They also made dumplings and Lantern Festival? I think they were dreaming!"
"Don't worry, old man, we will definitely succeed this time. Li Ruonan hurriedly helped the old man sit down: "You must be tired from coming from Los Angeles, why don't you eat a bowl of noodles to cushion your stomach first." ”
"Okay! I ate a bowl of noodles from Master Liu Mang last time, and I'm still thinking about it. The old man nodded and replied.
"Dad, didn't I make it for you at home? Wei Nianhua couldn't cry or laugh: "Master Liu Mang, I have used up all the condiments you gave me last time." My old man eats every day, every meal, but he can't get enough of it. ”
"Rabbit cub, can you compare what you make to your master's cooking? It's not like that! It's a waste of spice!" the old man raised his cane in anger.
"Don't worry, it's right away. Liu Mang smiled and snatched the old man's crutches, and then walked behind the stove.
The trouser belt noodles are similar to the practice of one noodle, both from Shaanxi.
Liu Mang put the noodles into the pot, and then made another pot to burn a little rapeseed oil. Then I replaced the original 'hat' with peppercorns and chili flakes, and finally poured hot oil on it.
With the sound of 'snort', the rich aroma of spicy seeds and hemp noodles immediately wafted out.
"Well, that's the smell!" the old man sniffed, and his cloudy eyes lit up suddenly.
"Old man, please use it slowly. Liu Mang delivered the noodles to the old man's hands.
The old man stirred it with his chopsticks and ate it in a big gulp.
"Look! This is called authentic trouser noodle! What kind of thing are you kid doing! Master Liu Mang, you must be from Shaanxi, right?"
"I'm not, I'm from Hunan, and I haven't been to Shaanxi yet. Liu Mang shook his head and said with a smile.
"Not from Shaanxi, can you make such an authentic taste?" the old man was a little unconvinced.
"Old man, there is a lot of cooking. We have an authentic Shaanxi chef in our team, and I learned all my noodles from him. Liu Mang scratched his head and said.
"Amazing!" the old man gave a thumbs up, and ate again.
"Master Liu Mang, I made it exactly according to your method, but why is the taste wrong?" Wei Nianhua asked.
"Well, it's hard to say what tastes, you must be at the wrong oil temperature. If you really can't grasp it, go buy a tool to measure the oil temperature, around 150 degrees is the best. ”
"That's it, it seems that I really don't have the talent to be a chef. Wei Nianhua said.
"Liu Mang, why didn't you see those officials coming?" After waiting for a while, Li Ruonan asked.
"It should have been early, if my guess is correct, the officials of the organizing committee will not identify themselves to you, and they will definitely be mixed with these ordinary people. ”
"Yes, how long will this assessment be held?" Li Ruonan asked again.
Williams said that it would be over at eight o'clock, and there was still half an hour left. ”
"Fortunately, it was only half an hour, there were too many people here today, and the ingredients we prepared were a little insufficient. Li Ruonan wiped the sweat oozing from his forehead with a towel: "I don't know what the final result is, will we win?"
"Regardless of the final result, at least we have tried, and there are no regrets. Liu Mang sighed: "I guess that those officials of the United Nations Organizing Committee must have made an assessment from all aspects, with our previous efforts, coupled with China's increasingly powerful influence in the world, this time the application for the World Heritage Site should be nine out of ten." ”
"That's right!" Li Ruonan laughed: "The world's second largest economy and the seat of the five permanent members of the United Nations are not decorations, and those officials will only evaluate Chinese noodles as Koreans' stuff unless they are blind." ”
"So sometimes it's just current events that make people, and if we had been inscribed a few years earlier, no matter how hard we tried, we might not have succeeded. What we're doing now is just pushing the boat along. ”
"Not necessarily. Tan Shi heard the conversation between the two and interjected: "Yankees don't have many good people, and they often stumble on China secretly." If we don't apply for the World Heritage List this time, maybe we will really let those Koreans succeed. ”
"Well, until the final result comes out, all variables are possible. Li Ruonan nodded in agreement.
"We would like to welcome you to this food appraisal and thank you to the chefs from China and Korea for making delicious food for us. After a while, Williams' voice came from the stereo in the hall.
"Food is not only rich in cultural information, it is also a cultural business card that is widely accepted by the world, and it is also the common heritage of mankind all over the world. ”
"Are you going to announce the results?" Not only Liu Mang, but everyone in the hall became nervous.
"This time, our organizing committee received applications from two countries, which country's cultural heritage are dumplings, buns, zongzi, and lantern festivals?"
"China!China!!!" the man holding the little loli clenched his fists and shouted loudly waving his arms.
Immediately afterwards, Olica and James also raised their fists and shouted, "China China!
The gang members of the Yamaguchi-gumi, the white-haired old gentleman, the black man holding the noodle bowl, and everyone on Liu Mang's side...... They all shouted: "China! China!"
The deafening sound spread throughout the hall, completely overshadowing the voices of the Koreans.
Kim Tae-hyun's face was pale, and he already sensed that the general trend was gone.
"Everyone, please be quiet and I'll announce the results. Williamston paused: "Since receiving these two application reports, our organizing committee has visited many people, visited two countries, and carefully observed the performance of these two delegations in the United States during this time. From the evaluation of culture, inheritance, circulation, and people's acceptance, all of us in the organizing committee unanimously agreed that dumplings, steamed buns, glutinous rice balls, and noodles are all from China, which is a precious wealth of all mankind and a precious heritage, so Chinese noodles have been successfully applied for the World Heritage Site this time!"
"Wow!" As Williams's words fell, the hall instantly erupted in a loud cheer.
"Liu Mang! We succeeded! We really succeeded!" Li Ruonan excitedly hugged Liu Mang's neck and jumped into his arms.
"Yes! it worked!" Liu Mang recalled his efforts in the past few days, and the corners of his eyes couldn't help but moisten.
"Congratulations, Mr. Liu Mang. Williams walked over with a microphone in his hand.
"Thank you, Mr. Williams. Liu Mang shook Williams' hand and said gratefully.
"Thank me for what you deserve. Williams leaned into Liu Mang's ear: "By the way, this result was actually evaluated last night, and Mr. President and his wife also congratulate you." He also said that during his tenure, the doors of the White House were always open for you. ”
"I'll think twice about it, Mr. Williams. Liu Mang laughed.
Walking out of the hall, Jiang Fangping immediately greeted him: "Master Liu Mang, is the result out?"
"Uh...... It's out. Liu Mang's face was expressionless.
"We ...... Did we fail?" Seeing the expression on Liu Mang's face, Jiang Fangping became nervous.
"No! We succeeded! Chinese noodles belong to the whole of China!" Seeing Jiang Fangping's appearance, Liu Mang patted him on the shoulder and laughed.
"Succeeded?" Jiang Fangping was stunned for a moment, immediately became excited, picked up the megaphone in his hand and shouted: "Success! We succeeded!"
"Boom!" the entire sea of red instantly boiled.
If the cheers in the hall just now were just a great river flowing, then the cheers of the crowd now are the tsunami that is rushing in their faces!
Everyone waved the red flag in their hands, shouted in their mouths, and all jumped up.
"Hey, hey, hey, what are you doing?" several young men rushed forward, grabbed their hands, grabbed their feet, and lifted Liu Mang and walked towards the crowd.
"Don't, don't, don't!" the cheering crowd tossed Liu Mang high and walked towards the streets of the United Nations headquarters.
The impassioned singing voice sounded again, and it was full of joy, excitement, joy, and unparalleled pride.
The five-star red flag fluttered in the wind, and the victory song was so loud
Sing about our dear motherland, from now on to prosperity and strength.
