In mid-May, Zhang Niu, Brother Ma, and the fat man took a car to Guangzhou together. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Everything in Happy Villa is carried out in an orderly manner, Zhang Niu is not too worried, the mountain road is under construction, and the construction is underneath, so he doesn't have to worry about it at all, but the matter of the teahouse has progressed to the later stage.

A series of quaint decoration, so that the teahouse looks quite charming, this is the saying of many people, in this regard Ma Ge spent a lot of effort into it, the teahouse did not pursue a sense of fashion, but the use of more simple decoration, the whole teahouse looks quite old and rustic.

The last time Zhang Niu came to watch, the decoration in front of the door was not much, this time after all the end of the walk into the inside to see, it felt as if in the style of the nineties, but the atmosphere inside has the current trend, the two are in contrast to each other, so he admires Brother Ma's ability, although the teahouse is still empty, it seems that there is already quite a fire.

This time I went to Guangzhou in the south to have a look, and by the way, I found some masters to come back, and at the same time, I also had the meaning of going to the past.

The fat man also had free time to follow over to take a look, and Brother Ma had friends over there, so it was easier to ask him for help with some things.

Guangzhou is a big city, also known as Yangcheng, the city of flowers.

In Guangzhou, Zhang Niu met a friend found by Brother Ma, a shrewd young man named Tian Jinjun, who was much older than Zhang Niu, and was very enthusiastic about their arrival.

Zhang Niu of Guangdong Province has been to Hainan once, and he has been to Hainan last time, and he still feels very deep when he comes here, especially in this prosperous place.

Tiantian Jinjun took them to Baiyun District, where they found a hotel to stay in.

Listening to the vernacular of Cantonese people everywhere, Zhang Niu was very skeptical that he would get lost in this kind of place, and he felt that this was a very strange place here.

It didn't matter if I came over this time, so a few people came by car, and after so much bumpy time, everyone rested in the room and didn't come out until five o'clock in the afternoon.

"Guys, how are you resting in the afternoon?" Tian Jinjun was very polite to the friends brought by Brother Ma, for fear that something would not be done.

Zhang Niu slept all afternoon, full of energy, stretching his waist, "Okay." ”

Brother Ma specially asked Tian Jinjun to help this time, this guy is running errands in Guangzhou, introducing all kinds of people, and also doing the work of digging people, quite like a headhunting company.

It was quite difficult to get out of the hotel and get on a Toyota driven by Tian Jinjun in the city of Guangzhou in the afternoon.

Tian Jinjun brought their famous restaurants in the city at night, at least all of which have a hundred years of branddom, and this Guangzhou restaurant is a very famous restaurant in the city, and it also produces moon cakes in the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Zhang Niu they enjoyed an authentic dinner in the evening, the next morning, they came to the teahouse, this is the place where they must come, they came at more than seven o'clock in the morning, when they walked in and saw a table full of people, Zhang Niu was a little surprised by the popularity here.

Seeing the men and women sitting there leisurely, with a pot of tea on the table, a few snacks around them, and happy friends chatting there, Zhang Niu felt that the people here would really enjoy it.

"You definitely don't get used to it for the first time, we Cantonese people like to drink tea outside in the morning, and rarely eat at home." Tian Jinjun led them to sit down by a window.

Leaning against the window, Zhang Niu could see mango trees planted in the row on the road below, as well as redbud flowers blooming with purple and red flowers, and banyan trees hanging down.

It is not suitable to plant banyan trees in Zhang Niu, there are always some ancient rumors, but here it is different, Cantonese people do not have so many worries, the most you see on the road are these three tree species, and the bauhinia is still the city flower.

As soon as they sat down, the waiter came over with a pot of tea.

Zhang Niu came up to drink tea for the first time, Brother Ma was already familiar with it, washed the teacups with hot water, and then poured a cup for everyone, the thick tea entrance, a very comfortable feeling.

"It's really infuriating to compare people with people, our old people over there won't enjoy it like here." The fat man took a sip of tea and looked at the old people in the teahouse.

Zhang Niu also noticed that there were many old people in their sixties, and some of them still put a bottle of liquor on the table and took a few sips from time to time, which was really good at enjoyment.

"It's a different place."

After a while, someone came over with a white steamer, which was full of plates of small snacks, steamed pork ribs, chicken wings, fried dumplings, horseshoe cakes, corn and so on.

Zhang Niu has a good appetite, and he chose one of each and put it on the table, and the fat man was naturally not very polite, so he put it on the table with a snack.

"Do you need any porridge?"

Eating porridge in the morning is the most inevitable thing in the teahouse, but Zhang Niu they don't know very well.

Tian Jinjun told everyone that there are many porridges here, such as preserved egg and lean porridge, large intestine porridge, yellow eel porridge, fish porridge, and different varieties and prices.

As soon as the waiter left, someone came over with snacks, and if you pay close attention, you can see that there are special people in the teahouse holding a steamer, so that everyone can eat at any time.

"How do you usually count such a small dish?" Zhang Niu picked up a piece of white transparent horseshoe cake, and it took a lot of effort to clamp the transparent-colored horseshoe cake, which was too smooth and tender.

"The small dishes are three dollars, whether it's meat or something else." Tian Jinjun pointed to the rice rolls in front of the fat man, "This kind of big dish costs five yuan, and the most eaten here is rice rolls, both outsiders and locals like it very much, there are this long strip, and there are round ones, and even meat can be sandwiched in the middle......

Zhang Niu looked at the six or seven ribs on the plate, the price is really not cheap, you can eat six big steamed buns on their side, enough to fill your stomach, but here it is different.

Enjoyment is enjoyment, but if it is quite money, a few bones down, Zhang Niu does not feel it, but the fat man has a great interest in rice rolls.

A pot of tea was empty, so Ma Ge opened the lid of the teapot and hung it on it, and then someone came over to make a new pot of tea.

"Ah Niu, the teahouse is like this, what you eat is that money, usually you don't have ten yuan in the morning, and your stomach can't be filled." When Brother Ma saw Zhang Niu's expression, he immediately remembered that he was like this for the first time.

Zhang Niu smiled, "It's not cheap, but it's a folk custom, and the taste is really good, especially this water chestnut cake, which is smooth and tender, and it's the first time I've eaten it." ”

The fat man had just eliminated a plate of rice rolls, and the corners of his mouth were shiny, "This rice rolls are not bad, you have to do this too, or it would be a pity." ”

Zhang Niu said a little worriedly: "This price is much higher than my phenomenon, I really don't know if my guests there can accept it." ”

Brother Ma wanted to eat the next dumpling, and immediately smiled, "You really think too much, things are expensive, but it depends on what customer group you are facing, if you put it in the town, there will definitely be no people patronizing, and when you get to the county seat, there will be many people coming, and there will be many people coming in the urban area, don't you see that there are restaurants in the urban area now?" They just sell all kinds of porridge, and that's a good business. ”

Zhang Niu was also worried for a while, and Brother Ma's words immediately dispelled this idea, and continued to eat the snacks here.

The porridge served at the back tasted more delicious, and the white porridge was eaten too much, and now eating this porridge is quite delicious.

As soon as I checked out, I ate nearly a hundred yuan at a table on the table, which is still only four people, if there are many people, then this morning tea is really expensive.

It was already past eight o'clock when they came out of the teahouse, and Tian Jinjun didn't rush to take them to find someone, but proposed to go to Xiguan.

Xiguan is a very characteristic place in Guangzhou, where you can see the atmosphere of the sixties and seventies.

"Ah Niu, it's still early, didn't you ask me where the decoration in the teahouse came from last time? I can tell you right now that I learned it from that Xiguan. Brother Ma also felt that the time was too early, so why did he have to go over at ten o'clock.

Zhang Niu didn't know what Xiguan was, but after listening to Brother Ma's words, he subconsciously remembered the unique atmosphere of the teahouse, and couldn't help asking: "Xiguan is really so interesting?" ”

The fat man answered: "Xiguan is a good place, and a lot of propaganda is filmed in Xiguan." ”

The fat man has been to Guangzhou a few times, and he still knows some places in his heart, and now the Xiguan proposed by Ma Ge is exactly the place he has been to before.

Brother Ma also nodded: "After seeing Xiguan once, you can feel that ancient atmosphere, and many foreigners will also go there." ”

Zhang Niu said that his heart was moved, and this time he came to find someone and had the mentality of playing, so he nodded: "Then let's go over and have a look." ”

Xiguan is the general name of the old Guangzhou people who are located in Liwan District, north of Xicun, south of the Pearl River, east to Renmin Road, west of Xiaobei River, and located outside the west gate of Guangzhou City in the Ming and Qing dynasties. Xiguan is divided into Upper Xiguan and Lower Xiguan, of which the upper Xiguan is higher and the lower Xiguan Xiguan story is lower. At the end of the Ming Dynasty, eighteen Fu were built, and there were thirteen lines. Since the middle and late Qing Dynasty, Xiguan has successively built residential areas such as Baohua Street, Fengyuan Street, and Duobao Street. Xiguan is the old city of Guangzhou, named after the Ming and Qing dynasties outside the west gate of the city, and it was the commercial center of Guangzhou during the Ming and Qing dynasties.

Walking into Xiguan, Zhang Niu felt the quaint atmosphere that came to his face, walked on the street and saw many ancient buildings, and saw Zhang Niu's dazzled, this place really came to the right place.

Tian Jinjun introduced these places in the out-of-tune Mandarin.

Brother Ma suddenly asked Zhang Niu, "Ah Niu, do you know that there is another thing in Xiguan that is the most famous?" ”

What the hell knows? I haven't been here a few times, Zhang Niu shook his head very dryly: "Don't fool me, how do I know what Xiguan is famous for." ”

Ma Ge laughed: "Xiguan's food is the best in the world, this has become a beautiful saying in Guangzhou." ”

"This is domineering enough, I have heard of the mountains and rivers in the world, and now there is a Xiguan delicacy, it's incredible, you must have tasted it, you want to invite me to taste it."

"No problem, Xiguan is much more delicious, it used to be a business place, and all kinds of delicacies are endless."

When you come to Xiguan, you must go to see the famous Xiguan House, which is mostly brick and wood structure, blue brick and stone feet, and the tall main entrance is decorated with granite. Its layout is based on the traditional main hall form of the Central Plains, which is basically in the direction of depth. Its typical plan is three rooms and two corridors; The left and right sides are symmetrical, and the main hall is in the middle. The central axis is from front to back, from south to north, and is the porch, the door Xiguan hall (door official hall), the sedan hall (tea hall), the main hall (hall or god hall), the head room (the elder's room), the patio, the second hall (dining room), and the second room (tail room). Each hall is one entrance, and the general big house is two or three entrances, forming quite a lot of central axis. On the left side of the front of the room on both sides is the study room and small courtyard, and on the right side is the side hall and guest room. The roof of the guest room is a flat rooftop, which is used for enjoying the shade, admiring the moon and worshipping the moon (worshipping the seventh sister) of the Xiguan ladies. The side hall and the rear of the guest room are bedrooms and kitchens. The garden is planted with flowers and trees, and there is a rockery fish pond, which is quite elegant and quiet.

After seeing the complete Xiguan Mansion, Zhang Niu thought that it was similar to the courtyard houses in their capital, but the design inside the Xiguan Mansion was more attractive and had its own uses.

"If there was a house like this, it would be nice to live in it, right?" The fat man is greedy, and now he sleeps in high-rise buildings, without the slightest breath.

"This Xiguan Mansion is now imitated and built by many people, and after some necessary modifications and some current trends, then the Xiguan Mansion will change its taste, and rich people will follow suit to build one." Tian Jinjun said the last sentence in a timely manner.

"Living in Xiguan House, I will feel like a master, and I carry a birdcage out every day to walk around the birds, what a fun thing it is."

It was hard for Zhang Niu to imagine that he would say such a thought.

Coming out of the Xiguan House, they came to a leisure place in front of them, where they saw a lot of old people who walked birds, and really let Zhang Niu's crooked mouth say it right, looking at all kinds of birds, and the birdcage outside, these people are so good at enjoying it.

Zhang Niu sighed very much, the living standards are different, these people enjoy really different, the urban area and here are really too bad, not at the same level at all.

Stop-and-go, they wandered here until nine o'clock before they came out, and then Tian Jinjun drove them to find someone.

The few I looked for today are all dim sum chefs, not authentic Cantonese but outsiders, their skills are quite good, but they are just troubled by the locals.

It's not that you can mix well with good craftsmanship, this is definitely a mistake, and it also depends on the relationship, and Tian Jinjun is looking for this kind of person, poached through high wages, and he can also get a smooth commission, relying on a mouth that can bring people back to life, basically succeed.
