Chapter 252: Give Me a Bowl of Kelp Soup

When he turned around, he found an old man with white hair holding a crossbow at him, his eyes full of wariness. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Uncle, no, uncle...... Old Daddy?" The image of the old man in front of him gradually coincided with Ah Hu's description, and Chang blurted out according to the text, "You are the old Daddy, right?"

"Son, do you recognize me?" The old man slowly put away the crossbow, put it on his shoulder, looked Chang Zhaowen up and down, tilted his head, and seemed to be racking his brains to search for memories, "Which family are you!"

"I'm not ......"

Chang Zhaowen was about to explain, but the old man slapped his thigh, "You don't look like a local on the island, you're a tourist......, right?" In the past, the things of Chen Sesame and Rotten Grain, one by one I remember more clearly, but I can't always remember what just happened, I almost forgot, the construction of our Sanshan Island has been several years, and now it should be completed, it's time to come to tourists!"

Chang Zhaowen nodded, and followed his words and said, "Old Daddy, I'm here to drink the soup you made!"

Since Ah Hu said that this old daddy opened a soup shop, then he would not be wrong to say that he wanted to eat soup, not to mention, if the mysterious salted fish in the cliff restaurant came from the hand of the old daddy in front of him, then it was not wrong for him to use that salted fish to hang the soup.

"You actually know my soup shop?" the old father looked stunned, "Ha, I have only sold a bowl of soup in the past three months, I didn't expect that now there are tourists coming from far and wide! Sure enough, the development of tourism is right! Hahaha! Fortunately, the old antique of the village chief finally listened to me!"

The old father looked very excited, and couldn't help but say, grabbed Chang Zhaowen's hand and dragged him to the right side of the waterhole. Unexpectedly, he is a lot older, his strength is really not small, and his walking speed is also very fast, which can be described as a brisk walk.

Soon, a simple log cabin appeared in front of them, the door of the log cabin was open, and on the eaves of one side of the door hung a tattered flag, I don't know how many years this flag had been hung, I couldn't see its original color at all, it was full of speckled old stains, and only a vague word "soup" could be seen.

There is a wooden round table on the bluestone paved ground in front of the cabin, and the huge crown of a big locust tree on the side just becomes the parasol of the round table.

"What kind of soup would you like to eat, young man?"

Before the words fell, a pitch-black wooden board was stuffed into his hand, Chang Zhaowen looked down, the wooden board was engraved with dense fly-headed small letters, it turned out that this was the menu, I didn't expect this small soup shop to be very particular, and there was actually a menu.

"Bring me a mullet egg soup. ”

"Uh," said the old daddy, "but I haven't caught a mullet for three or four years, where did the mullet eggs come from?"

"This ......." three black lines appeared on Chang Zhaowen's head, and he paused, "Then bring me a hand-made fish ball soup." ”

"Fish balls?" the old father tilted his head, "I finished eating them all last night......"

"Then there should always be mixed fish soup, right?"

"No, no, my family's miscellaneous fish soup has to be made with more than eight kinds of fish, but I only caught one fish today. ”

"Forget it. Chang Zhaowen had no choice but to raise his hand in surrender, "Old Daddy, tell me yourself, what kind of soup do you have in this store that you can order?"

"Is kombu soup okay?"

"Okay!" Chang Zhaowen said helplessly.

"Okay, according to the old rules, pay first and then serve the soup, the shop is not credited, my eighty-six old bones, get up early every day to fish, chop wood, hard work to make soup, do not accept counter-offers......" The old father opened his mouth and said a lot of words at once, and he didn't even need to ventilate.

"I didn't say I wanted to take credit, and I didn't say I wanted to make a counteroffer, how much is your kelp soup?"

"The kelp is my eighty-six-year-old bones I fished by myself, it is sweet and delicious, and I can prolong my life like me after eating it, and my body is still great when I get older!"

"How much?"

"Three hundred yuan a bowl, no counteroffer!"

Chang Zhaowen was slightly stunned, this old daddy's routine is a little familiar? But because he is familiar with it, he is not too verbose, and without saying a word, he directly counted three banknotes and handed them to the other party.

The old dad looked at the money in his hand fixedly, and came to a conclusion - sure enough, he had been isolated from the outside world on the island for too long, and now the prices outside are soaring, and these three hundred yuan may be enough to buy a melon now.

It seems that his pricing is still a little low, and if there are more tourists in the future, won't he have to lose money?

"Young man, here comes your kelp soup!" a clay bowl was placed in front of Chang Zhaowen.

Chang Zhaowen looked down, this was really just a bowl of kelp soup, the bowl was not small, but there was nothing except a few thin kelp threads at the bottom of the bowl.

The old father seemed to be a little weak-hearted, and before Chang Zhaowen could speak, he hurriedly defended: "You young man is too light to eat this, but the kelp soup has to be so refreshing to be delicious...... If you want me to say, since you young man has come to travel, don't ......be too frugal! Don't order expensive soups, like mullet egg soup, because you don't want to spend money."

Chang Zhaowen's mood at the moment was like that of a dog in the sun: "Old Daddy, it was the kelp soup you asked me to order! Didn't you say that you haven't caught a mullet for three or four years?"

"That's right!" the old father patted his head, "Look at my memory, the two long white legs of the village chief's daughter-in-law that I saw when I was eighteen years old are still dangling in front ......of my eyes, but I don't remember what I said, by the way, young man, you have paid the money now, right?"

After another slap of speech, and even his mouth was dry, Chang Zhaowen picked up the soup bowl and took a sip.

To be honest, the first mouthful of soup, Chang Zhaowen was a little disappointed, a strong smell of seafood filled his mouth, he frowned, this old daddy's treatment of kelp is too careless, even if it is fresh kelp, at least before boiling the soup, it should be washed and then blanched with boiling water, remove the smell of the sea and then cook the soup. Obviously, the bowl of soup in front of him did not have this pretreatment at all, it was just a simple cut of the kelp shreds and thrown into the pot to boil.

Wrong!

Chang Zhaowen smacked his lips, his eyes lit up, and after the smell of the sea faded, there seemed to be a sweet aftertaste in the soup. This is......

Chang Zhaowen looked up at the old father sitting beside him, fiddling with a hand-made harpoon: "This soup is ...... Add sea rice rolls?"

"Yo, connoisseur!" the old father put down the harpoon and looked at Chang Zhaowen and grinned, "But sea intestines are not a rare thing. ”

Chang Zhaowen nodded, indeed, sea intestines are not uncommon. It is said that the ancient Lu cuisine master traveled all over the country, that is, relying on a can of sea intestine powder, in the era when there was no monosodium glutamate, a little sea intestine powder can be added when cooking, and no ordinary dish will become delicious and delicious.

"But old daddy, your sea intestine noodles are not ordinary sea intestine noodles, is it? This is not a thing of our world at all, is it?"
