Chapter 424: First Glimpse of the Doorway
"It's nothing, I'm just getting a glimpse of the way to the Divine Consciousness Exercises. Gao Xiao said coldly.
"Don't pretend, you have a bright future with such a cultivation speed, let's go out and have some good food to celebrate." Chen Xiang said playfully.
"Well, it's really worth celebrating, I'll cook a few dishes myself. Gao Xiaoleng thought for a while and said.
"Where is there a kitchen here?" Chen Xiang blinked.
"We can borrow the stove of the Jiangnan Spring Hotel. Gao Xiaoleng said casually.
"Alright then, I hope your food is still palatable. Chen Xiang couldn't believe it.
"Perhaps, the main reason is that the food here is hard to swallow. Gao Xiaoleng remembered the meal he had eaten a few days ago.
"I think it's good!" Chen Xiang said very seriously.
"That's a good name, you're not picky about your tastes, you're good at feeding. Gao Xiaoleng also said very seriously.
"You can really brag, the chef here is very famous, and the innkeeper can tell you that he paid a lot of money to hire him. Chen Xiang pouted.
"Well, it's no use to say more, let's give the owner here a deposit first, and then go buy the ingredients. Gao Xiaoleng went directly to the management office.
The owner of Jiangnan Spring Hotel is a middle-aged man, with a slightly bald head, a big belly, small eyes, and a shrewd and greedy appearance.
"What's the matter with the two of you, are you satisfied with the service?" said the innkeeper with a grin.
"Satisfied, even more so if you could lend me the stove. Gao Xiaoleng said it directly.
"What's the matter, don't like the food at the restaurant?" the innkeeper was surprised.
"It's not dissatisfied, it's just not to taste. Gao Xiaoleng said a little arrogantly.
"Yo! What a big breath, the stove can be lent to you, and I don't charge extra, but I have one condition. The innkeeper said with his eyes spinning.
"Speak. Gao Xiaoleng had already guessed his conditions.
"My condition is very simple, that is, you will give me a taste of the food you cooked, so that I can sit in the well and watch the sky for a while. The innkeeper said with some arrogance.
"Hahaha, no problem, just let you take advantage of this. Gao Xiaoleng said bluntly.
"Hehe, what a big breath, although I, Meng Jiangnan, am just the owner of a hostel, but all the money I earn has been eaten in my stomach, I hope your food is as delicious as you say." Meng Jiangnan, the owner of the hostel, said a little unconvinced.
"Well, borrow the stove in over an hour. Gao Xiaoleng turned around and left.
"Wait, how long are you going to borrow? I can only lend you half an hour at most, but don't delay our hostel lunch. Meng Jiangnan said unceremoniously.
"Half an hour is enough, can I leave?" Gao Xiao said coldly and elegantly.
"Please. The innkeeper said proudly.
Gao Xiaoleng took Chen Xiang to the vegetable market, Gao Xiaoleng wandered around the vegetable market for an hour and didn't buy anything, just when Chen Xiang was a little impatient, Gao Xiaoleng spent ten minutes to purchase more than a dozen ingredients in one go, each of which looked the freshest, and then Gao Xiaoleng spent another ten minutes buying rice, he was actually picking rice one grain at a time.
Gao Xiaoleng's hand speed is extremely fast, Chen Xiang even saw the afterimage of Gao Xiaoleng's hand, and Gao Xiaoleng seems to know the location of every good grain, of course, Chen Xiang knows that this is Gao Xiaoleng's use of divine sense, just to buy a rice, it actually costs divine sense, this is really hard.
Gao Xiaoleng took ten minutes to pick out two catties of rice from that big circle, but the two catties of rice were full, and it seemed that all the good rice here had been picked out by Gao Xiaoleng.
After buying the rice, Gao Xiaoleng immediately left the vegetable market with Chen Xiang, and when Gao Xiaoleng and Chen Xiang entered the kitchen, there were still twenty minutes before the time set by Meng Jiangnan's boss.
Originally, Chen Xiang saw that Gao Xiaoleng's rice was very fresh and had some expectations for Gao Xiaoleng's cooking skills, but now that there are only twenty minutes left, he doesn't have any expectations, it is obvious that there are at least a few minutes to wash rice, and there are still ten minutes left before even the rice is steamed well, how to eat.
Gao Xiaoleng didn't care about Chen Xiang's expression, he was still a fine rice washer, without a trace of hurrying.
Gao Xiaoleng spent five minutes scooping the rice, then put the rice into a stone pot and added water, and then ordered Chen Xiang to light the fire.
The chef who was borrowed from the stove naturally watched Gao Xiaoleng coldly, because the chef thought that Gao Xiaoleng was playing tricks, probably because his peers were enemies, and the chef looked down on Gao Xiaoleng's cooking skills.
Gao Xiaoleng naturally didn't pay attention to such a wild chef's opinion, when Gao Xiaoleng really started stir-frying, there were still ten minutes before the time required by Meng Jiangnan's boss, and Gao Xiaoleng took another three minutes to wash the vegetables, and Gao Xiaoleng's real time for stir-frying was only six or seven minutes.
Chen Xiang was no longer hopeful, a few minutes passed in a blink of an eye, there were still more than a dozen dishes here, Chen Xiang didn't think that a dozen dishes could be fried in a few minutes.
But Gao Xiaoleng can create miracles, Gao Xiaoleng's dishes are some dishes that can be stir-fried, such as vegetarian fried shredded potatoes, stir-fried shredded eggplant, even if it is potato stewed beef, the potato pieces and beef pieces are also very small blocks, which of course are all to save time for stir-frying.
This is an attempt by Gao Xiaoleng, and there is no time limit for cooking before, so I have not made such an attempt.
Of course, there are more cold dishes, such as gherkins for beauty, cold lotus root slices and so on.
As a result, when the boss of Meng Jiangnan came, Gao Xiaoleng just made twelve dishes.
Gao Xiaoleng gave the boss three dishes and two bowls of white rice, and Boss Meng Jiangnan pretended not to be so much.
Gao Xiaoleng motioned for him to taste it before making a decision, and Boss Meng Jiangnan used chopsticks to clip a few shredded potatoes as thin as a hair into his mouth.
Wow!ahhh......h
Boss Meng Jiangnan danced happily, and Gao Xiaoleng asked him if he could finish the three dishes?
Boss Meng Jiangnan greedily said that more than a dozen dishes could be eaten, and Chen Xiang had already packed the remaining nine dishes into a huge tray and left.
Gao Xiaoleng used a stone basin to bring out all the rice in the pot, because the rice was full, so Gao Xiaoleng could put out all the rice, and by the time Meng Jiangnan knew that the rice was delicious, Gao Xiaoleng and Chen Xiang had already taken the food away.
The two bowls of rice and three dishes have been eaten by Boss Meng Jiangnan, of course, if it is just an ordinary meal, this amount is enough, and with Boss Meng Jiangnan's picky taste, it is estimated that it is impossible to be so clean, and now the several plates and bowls in front of Boss Meng Jiangnan have been licked by him several times.
