Chapter 157: Food Exchange Contest (4)
Before Bai Xiaobai had a food system, he often came here to purchase ingredients, so he was very familiar with the Dongmen Market.
The taxi drove smoothly and arrived at Dongmen Market in 15 minutes.
Lan Weihao's competition is to make green pepper shredded pork, and the two main ingredients needed are nothing more than green peppers and lean pork.
After getting off the taxi, Bai Xiaobai and Lan Weihao went straight to the vegetable and fruit area to buy green peppers.
In the vegetable and fruit area, there are all kinds of shouts.
Almost every stall sells green peppers.
Some local bosses in Jianghai City see that you don't understand Jianghai dialect, and they will arbitrarily raise the price to trick people.
Bai Xiaobai has opened a restaurant for two or three years, bought countless ingredients, and has become an adult. The price of seasonal vegetables, he can basically guess eight or nine.
However, Bai Xiaobai has a very upright personality, he never bargains when buying vegetables, he always thinks that the price of vegetables is appropriate, and if it is unreasonable or outrageously expensive, he will turn around and leave.
Bai Xiaobai and Lan Weihao walked between each vegetable and fruit stall.
Seeing that every stall is full of green peppers, many people will not know how to start.
Lan Weihao was no exception, he was dazzled directly, turned his head and said to Bai Xiaobai, "Brother Xiaobai, you can help me buy green peppers, I really don't know how to pick, and I buy vegetables one by one." ”
Lan Weihao is very good at drug investment promotion, and his cooking skills are also good, but his vision for picking ingredients is really not good, when he buys vegetables, he grabs a handful at random, as long as it is not rotten.
"Then I'll just look at it for you. After Bai Xiaobai finished speaking, he came to a stall and looked at the color of the green peppers, which was indeed good, and the price was very reasonable.
"That's it!" Bai Xiaobai turned his head to ask Lan Weihao's opinion.
"Okay, then you can help me choose. Lan Weihao said, taking the initiative to take a plastic bag and open it.
In fact, choosing green peppers is very simple.
First of all, the texture of green peppers, the hard surface is full, it means that it is relatively fresh, if the surface is weak, it means that it is not fresh for a long time.
Secondly, there should be no cracks and dark spots on the surface. Because green peppers are brittle, if there are cracks and dark spots on the surface, they are very perishable, and the nutrients are easy to decompose.
Bai Xiaobai is quick-eyed, and after a few clicks, he picked out a small bag of green peppers.
When the scales were passed, the vegetable seller couldn't help but quip, "Oh, young man, your vision is amazing." I've just made up for these fresh goods, and I've picked them all out for you. ”
Bai Xiaobai calmly replied, "Auntie, your green peppers are quite fresh, I didn't pick them, they were all taken casually." ”
The vegetable seller aunt saw that the white little white man looked energetic, his mouth was so sweet, and he praised himself for the freshness of his food, and his heart was sweeter than smearing honey at the moment.
So, when the scale was checked, the aunt directly wiped a few cents and a few cents.
After Lan Weihao paid for the payment, the two of them continued to buy lean pork.
The weather is hot, and the pork in the afternoon is basically not too fresh, and Bai Xiaobai, who is strict, took a turn in the pork area of the Dongmen Market, but did not choose the satisfactory one.
I went to Yonghui Supermarket again, and it turned out that all the pork had been refrigerated at low temperature all day.
Still not fresh enough!
After choosing and choosing, Bai Xiaobai finally picked a piece of good lean meat at a pork shop on the corner of the East Gate Market.
After choosing lean meat, Bai Xiaobai helped Lan Weihao choose some other auxiliary ingredients.
During this period, everything was handled by Bai Xiaobai, and Lan Weihao was not only taking out his wallet, but also carrying his bag.
After assisting Lan Weihao to buy the ingredients, it was already five o'clock in the afternoon.
There are only two hours left before the official start of the food exchange competition.
"Brother Xiaobai, let's eat outside. I'm in for a treat. "Lan Weihao is very generous and bold.
After all, the ingredients he needs can be bought all at once, all thanks to Bai Xiaobai.
Doing things and eating with peace of mind, Bai Xiaobai calmly accepted Lan Weihao's invitation.
The two of them had a casual meal at the small restaurant in Dongmen Market.
After eating and drinking, it was close to half past five.
Bai Xiaobai said to Lan Weihao, "Brother wolf, you go to the competition site first, I want to go back to the restaurant to get some ingredients prepared by myself! ”
"Okay, then you should be careful, the game time is seven o'clock, don't be late, call if you have something." Lan Weihao reminded.
"Understood, then I'll go first. After Bai Xiaobai finished speaking, he stopped a taxi on the side of the road and sat down.
The two parted ways.
Lan Weihao took the prepared ingredients and went directly to Honghui Grand Plaza.
On the other side, Bai Xiaobai returned to Chaotianmen Street alone.
As soon as the taxi arrived at the street in front of Xiaobai's restaurant, the cold electronic sound in Bai Xiaobai's mind sounded.
[C-level difficulty, special lotus leaf lean porridge has been upgraded.] The necessary ingredients, utensils, and seasonings are prepared in a portable Xiaoice box on the kitchen countertop. The host can participate in the competition with it. 】
This new product has been upgraded since this morning, and after nearly twelve hours of upgrading, the upgrade is finally completed at this moment.
"Master, you wait here for a while, I'll go back to the store and get something and come out. Bai Xiaobai said hello to the taxi driver beside him.
"Okay, then hurry up. The driver loosened his seat belt and said.
Bai Xiaobai got out of the car, opened the roller shutter in the store, and hurried back to the glass kitchen.
Sure enough, there was a sky blue portable refrigerator on the kitchen cupboard counter.
Bai Xiaobai opened it and took a look.
This time, the system is simply full of conscience, and the things needed to cook the food have been completely packed and organized.
Take a quick inventory and have everything you need.
Bai Xiaobai carried the portable refrigerator, closed the roller shutter in the store, and got into the taxi again.
"Master, go to Honghui Grand Plaza. After Bai Xiaobai got in the car, he reported his destination.
The taxi driver put on his seat belt again, started the car, and drove directly to Honghui Plaza.
Honghui Grand Plaza is in the north of Jianghai City, nearly half an hour's drive from Chaotianmen Street.
It stands to reason that it's only a quarter past six, and it's completely in time.
But the taxi drove to the back, slower and slower, and there were several traffic jams along the way.
Bai Xiaobai felt that something was wrong, and after asking the taxi driver, he got a heavy explosive message.
On Sunday, the main roads around Honghui Plaza are all large traffic jams, and I am afraid that I will not be able to reach it for more than an hour.
After Bai Xiaobai heard this information, he almost didn't spurt out a mouthful of old blood.
For more than an hour, the food exchange competition will definitely be late.
Bai Xiaobai paid the fare halfway and got off the taxi, he planned to change the means of transportation.
Bai Xiaobai of Honghui Grand Plaza probably knows the direction, but he has never been there, and he doesn't know if Metro Line 1 can be reached.
Opening the Baidu map, Bai Xiaobai checked it and found that even if he took Metro Line 1, he could only reach the vicinity of Honghui Grand Plaza, and he had to walk a long way during this period.
It's really raining!
Anyway, let's do the subway first.
Bai Xiaobai didn't have time to think, carrying a heavy portable refrigerator, he trotted all the way to the nearest subway entrance station.
As soon as he arrived at the subway entrance station, Bai Xiaobai couldn't help but stop and gasped for breath.
Damn, if you run like this, even if you can get there, you'll be tired!
Bai Xiaobai gasped, faintly worried that his physical strength was not enough.
At this moment, there was a sound of motorcycles from behind, a somewhat familiar magnetic middle-aged voice, and then shouted:
"Boss Bai, in such a hurry, where are you going?"
