Chapter 112: Ordinary alleys are not peaceful
In the east window position of the lobby on the first floor of Qingzhou City Green Treasure Residence, there are two people sitting and eating, wiping their grease mouths with their cuffs from time to time, and picking up a pot of April green and pouring it directly into their mouths, as if they are not drinking, but drinking.
A bald man next to him was just eating the food, but he didn't pick up the glass.
On the table of the Eight Immortals are several plates of sewer offal and other things, which are full of color, fragrance and can't help but arouse people's appetite.
The practice of Lvbaoju is very ordinary, all the water is stir-fried, so as to remove the taste of the offal, and lock in the deliciousness of the food itself. In front of it is a plate of stir-fried kidney slices, green onions, ginger and garlic exude a strong fragrance after stir-frying, and the red pork liver seems to be a decoration under its cover, without a trace of organ taste, it is very tender in the mouth, and the fragrance of five-spice powder is still in the brain;
Next to the fried waist slices is a plate of husband and wife lung slices, under the thick red oil there are beef, beef scalp and other things, pick up a chopstick and put it in the mouth, the taste of pepper paralyzes the mouth, people can't remember that this is the water, only feel that the delicacies of the mountains and seas in the world are not changed. There is also a plate of pickled pepper chicken offal on the table of the Eight Immortals, washed with the unique wild pepper in the mountainous area of Qingzhou City, put it into the pickled jar to ferment for more than a month, cut into small pieces and stir-fry the chicken offal, the fragrance of pickled pepper is coming, even if it is a person with typhoid fever and cold nasal congestion, eat a plate of pickled pepper chicken offal, will sweat profusely, and the nose is unblocked.
And in the middle of the Eight Immortals table, there is the signature dish of Lvbaoju that Qin Chuan grabbed from the big man in a fight with the people-Jiuqu large intestine. After the fresh large intestine is cleaned, blanched, slightly fried in five mature oils, fried with dozens of condiments such as sand kernels, cinnamon, and bean coarse, and finally added a few coriander, as if on the face of the peerless beauty, the mole in the eyebrows is dotted.
If you come out of the pot for a while, the large intestine is not cooked, the condiments are difficult to taste, and there is a smell of organs, which is really difficult to eat. If it comes out of the pot for a while, the Jiuqu large intestine becomes the Jiuqu small intestine, losing its chewiness, and even a little soup is dry again, but there is a burnt taste.
It is precisely because of the time-consuming and labor-intensive preparation of the Jiuqu large intestine and the great difficulty of cooking that few restaurants in Qingzhou City are willing to make this dish, so Lvbaoju has gained a foothold here with this dish, and then built a four-story restaurant.
The lobby on the first floor of the Green Treasure House is full of people at the moment, people of all colors come in and out, it has been a long time since noon, and the lobby is still full, enough to know how prosperous the business of the Green Treasure House is.
On the first floor of the Green Treasure Residence, there are some peddlers and pawns who sit down, seeing that they are dressed in rags, and there are some flat poles, fiber ropes and other things under the stool, and at a glance they know that they are here to catch up with the market or purchase New Year's things, etc., looking at the sky is not early, arousing the people who travel with them to beat their teeth.
Yufulou and Shibiju are only places where rich businessmen and giants go, how can this peddler and pawn afford it. However, the Emerald Treasure House specializes in sewerage and other things, and the ingredients are easy to buy, and the shopkeeper has always been specialized in the business of the poor, so this Emerald Treasure House is the favorite choice.
But because of this, there are a lot of people gathered in the lobby on the first floor, and if you stretch your waist, you will run into others, and there are many people here, and some thin words cannot be discussed at will, otherwise you will be taken away before you finish eating the Jiuqu large intestine.
At this moment, Qin Chuan picked up a pot of April Green, did not hold the wine glass at all, but directly lifted the wine bottle and drank it directly, looking at his way of drinking, how could people believe that this was a young man who was only ten years old.
The old man next to him was not far behind, humming a minor tune of Qingzhou City while knocking on the table, picking up a piece of Jiuqu large intestine and putting it in his mouth, refusing to swallow this delicacy easily. Then he called a big pot of rice, took the red oil of the couple's lung slices and covered it with it, and ate a large pot of rice with side dishes, pickled cucumbers and other things.
Both of them knew that the preciousness of Qingzhou City's April Green was brewed from the first grain rice in the autumn year, and when they waited, the two of them were like nouveau riche, and they drank it happily. Seeing that there were not enough dishes on the table, Qin Chuan went to the back kitchen without saying hello and brought a plate of Jiuqu large intestines, perhaps because he felt a little choked after eating too quickly, and went to serve a bowl of pork liver soup, with oil flowers floating on it and a few green onions.
Xie Baldzi, who was waiting next to him, was distressed, especially when Qin Chuan brought out a few more dishes from the back kitchen, he was as sad as a mourner, I really don't know why the two of them have such a big appetite, and they are not happy to eat so many things in the water, but they all blame themselves for agreeing to it and inviting these two people to dinner. If you can't make a little surprise, I'm afraid this meal will be a little sloppy.
However, seeing that the young man was able to repel the entourage of Xu Mansion in Qingzhou City with one punch, he was definitely not a nameless, especially the old man who also hummed a minor tune in Qingzhou City, indicating that he was very familiar with this place.
Qin Chuan didn't care about the oil flowers in his mouth, picked up a piece of Jiuqu intestine and said: "Uncle Shi, you are drinking, this April Qing is the best wine in Qingzhou City, why haven't I ever drunk a sip when I see you." ”
Xie Bald couldn't say it because of his bitterness at this time, speaking of April Qing, it was naturally a high-quality wine that everyone knew in Qingzhou City. It's just that although Xie Bald said that he was greedy, he would only come here to drink alone on the day of the New Year or when he made a lot of money.
Today, Qin Chuan and Lao Dao solved the tigress of the Song family in Huzhou, and also earned dozens of taels of silver for him, so Xie Bald was overjoyed and invited the two of them to eat at this Green Treasure Residence, who knew that the two of them had a lot of food and wine, if they drank a few more pots of April Green, not to mention that the thirty taels of silver were not enough, they had to take a lot, so Xie Bald didn't dare to drink anymore with a plan in his heart, just thinking that the two of them would drink as soon as possible and leave as soon as possible.
Xie Bald took a sip of the fragrance of April Green, and said with some disappointment: "It is said that the April Green in Qingzhou City is a first-class thing, but I have been drinking here for decades, and I am a little tired of drinking, so it is not as good as these foods." Drink to your heart's content, and be full this time. ”
However, Qin Chuan saw Xie Baldzi's distressed expression, and he was embarrassed to drink it again, so he picked up the wine jug and shook it: "Uncle Shi is right, when it comes to high-quality wine, this April green is not as good as the October osmanthus yellow that we brew ourselves, if you are free, I will take you to have a drink, I looked at the wine in the jug, it should be enough, you can't drink too much today, otherwise you won't be able to go back." ”
Xie Bald rolled his eyes and said, "Where does my nephew live?" If you are drunk, I will call a carriage to send you." Today at Lvbaoju, you have to have a good time, I don't know when the next time will be?"
Qin Chuan knew that Xie Bald was tricking him, and wanted to know what sect he came from, so he kept an eye on it: "I am not from Qingzhou City, but from other places, and I have traveled here with my master, and I heard that there are some mountain delicacies and game here, so I have rested for a while, and I will set off this afternoon to go to another place." ”
When Xie Bald heard this, he guessed well in his heart, these two people were not from Qingzhou, so they didn't even give face to the Xu family in Qingzhou City, it seemed that they had something to rely on. Now that I hear that the two of them are about to set off, if they can't learn a little shocking skin, they will definitely regret it in the future.
Xie Bald made up his mind to pay attention, and asked cheekily: "The old man is not talented, he has been operating in Qingzhou City for decades to solve the signing and fortune telling, but he is often called a wanderer in the rivers and lakes, not a real person in the door, in fact, the old man knows that if there is a real person in the door, I will definitely go further." Therefore, I have the courage to ask my seniors for advice. ”
Lvbaoju is noisy at the moment, but the word predecessor is very clear.
Lao Dao stopped his chopsticks, poured a cup of April Green and said: "Even if you are a real shocker, it is difficult to calculate everything as you want, so you just need to observe carefully, say something that others want to hear, and leave a way out for yourself." ”
Xie Bald poured a glass of wine, raised his hands and said, "I hope the seniors will be clearer again." Then he drank the wine from his cup.
Lao Dao smiled, picked up the chopsticks again and picked up a piece of stir-fried pork liver, and said while chewing: "That day, I saw the wife of the Song family come out of Baiyunguan with Wenquxing's bag in her hand, so I guessed that this person came to seek fame for others. But when it comes to entering Beijing to rush to take the exam and seek fame, how can this temple and Taoist temple in Qingzhou City with great incense have the magic experience of Huzhou, so I thought that this person must have come for an old friend in Qingzhou City, so in the black cloth tent, he said something pleasing to the lady, and the lady of the Song family was naturally very happy, and rewarded a few silver coins by the way. ”
Xie Bald suddenly realized, and then nodded heavily, as if he agreed with what Lao Dao said, and couldn't help patting his ass and saying: "It's still the seniors who see it carefully, and the old ones are ashamed." ”
At this time, Qin Chuan interjected: "What's the matter, the details of the master are insufficient, but the ability to judge the situation is not low." Qin Chuan's words are about Xie Bald pretending to be a stranger in the back kitchen of Lvbaoju, watching the play next to him without making a move.
Xie Bald smiled embarrassedly: "I see that my nephew is surprised, he must be a rare talent in the martial arts rivers and lakes, so I am patient to wait over there to see how you can show your heroic posture and teach those wealthy gentry and giants." ”
Lao Dao was full of food and drink at this time, and he burped a few more times regardless of etiquette, packed the unfinished meals on the table, whispered a few times with Xie Baldzi, and then walked towards Pingyangfang with Qin Chuan.
The winter days are getting shorter, and before the two of them have walked half a pillar of incense, it is already dark, Qin Chuan muttered that he shouldn't have nagged with Xie Bald for so long, and at this moment, Lao Dao stopped in front of an alley, turned his head to look behind......
