Chapter 37: The Hundred Tables Banquet
The hotel's ordering is very simple, Xu Wenjie asked them to make enough portions, it doesn't matter if it looks good or not, rural people eat real, not that kind of flashy things.
Even if you make the food look good, if people can't eat enough, they still say that you can't do it. This is the gap between rural people and urban people, don't pretend to be forced, don't say anything tasteless, those are all pretended, who is happy when hungry.
When I went to the mall to buy something, I encountered a little trouble, the car was too good, and the staff was afraid that something would happen, so I sent two people to help watch.
No way, people who can afford to drive this kind of car, they don't want to make trouble. No wonder I don't know, people say that if you have money, you have privileges, and that's really the case, sometimes you don't want to, and others can't.
"Brother, you bought too much here, and if you buy these clothes, your family won't wear them."
Xu Wenlong is obviously more sensible than Xu Wenjun and Xu Ruirui, although he doesn't like to talk, he is more frugal than the other two in life.
The fat man said: "It's okay, your brother is rich, even if he buys you a sports car like this, he doesn't care." When you come home and see the gift he has prepared for you, you promise not to say anything like that. Okay, hurry up and carry the things, you see the waiters, they have been waiting there for a long time. ”
They are really special, there are three waiters behind them to carry things, but these waiters are happy in their hearts. When you encounter this kind of local tyrant, even if you are tired, you are happy, and several people have already calculated this month's commission in their hearts.
"Don't listen to your Feiyang nonsense, even if you want a luxury car, I won't buy it for you, but an ordinary car can. These clothes are intended for them to wear when they go abroad, and don't talk nonsense when they get home later, you know. Otherwise, there will be no reward for you. ”
"Brother Wenjie, I promise not to talk nonsense." Xu Ruirui first said that she had wanted a mobile phone for a long time.
Although the other two didn't speak, they also nodded silently, for their own reward, it was better not to say anything.
"Alright, let's go, go home, thank you."
Everyone got in the car, Xu Wenjie didn't let Wen Jun drive, anyway, there were only two cars, he drove one, and Qian Fat drove just one.
They left, but the service staff in the store began to discuss, Xu Wenjie's shopping consumption at this meeting was close to one million, which also gave them a glimpse of what a real tyrant is.
It's a pity that although these people have watched animal videos, they don't seem to recognize Xu Wenjie. Also, even if you look familiar, you won't think of Xu Wenjie, because everyone knows that he is in Africa.
If he had brought Simba with him, people would have recognized him instantly, and who would have made Simba more famous than him.
Needless to say when he returned home, seeing that he bought so many things, Xu Wenjie did not escape the fate of being nagged in the end, but he was very happy in his heart.
Of course, the three little guys, who had forgotten about the reward at this time, were studying the gems and jewelry that Xu Wenjie gave them. Wen Jun and Wen Long stayed in the city for a long time and knew more than others, and as a result, Xu Wenjie was once again criticized by his family.
However, after criticizing them one by one, they still took the gemstone jewelry given to them by Xu Wenjie and looked at it there.
"I gave the gift wrong, alas!"
……
The next morning, the whole village was busy, although it was Xu Wenjie's banquet, but everyone usually made the best dishes at home and brought them out.
This is called a hundred family banquet in Xujia Village, which is actually a way to increase the relationship between neighbors, and it will be held once a year in Xujia Village. However, this time is a little special, because this is Xu Wenjie's return to his hometown and a banquet for his hometown.
The invited chef came over early in the morning, and some people from neighboring villages also came to join in the fun, and this kind of banquet usually does not mind unexpected people coming to eat.
The fat man was dragged out of the bed by Xu Wenjie, this guy has forgotten what he said last night.
"Call quickly, and I'll work with me later."
The tables have begun to be set up, and each family is acting on its own, and everyone is used to this kind of feast. Uncle is leading people to tell them door to door, don't cook too many dishes, the restaurant in the city will deliver food today.
If you don't say it, I'm afraid that the dishes will be wasted a lot, although the weather is not hot in the morning and evening, but at noon, the temperature is still a little high.
Qian Fat Man called and asked, the dishes over there have been almost prepared, just pull them over in a while and heat them up in a steamer.
The hotel didn't know where it learned the identity of the person Qian Fat was looking for, so he directly sent the chef in the hotel.
At ten o'clock, the village was bustling with activity, and the adults had already picked up the children who were reading outside. Such a banquet, all the people who can come in Xujia Village will be called, and everyone will publicize the matter of honoring the ancestors, and another purpose is to inspire those children.
In fact, at this time, Xu Wenjie and Qian Fatzi are idle, but the friends who used to play with him in the village have not been able to come back today, they are all working in other places, and there are almost no people like my cousin who stay at home and do some small business.
So, the two of them had nothing to do, so they began to taste those dishes one by one to see which one tasted better. Xu Wenjie thought that if there was a way to sort out Chinese snacks and make a professional tourism industry, it would be a good choice.
However, it will be very troublesome to get this thing out, one is that snacks are generally found by craftsmen themselves, and they are in line with the taste of the public, so they retain the essence.
It is not an ordinary difficulty to invite all these craftsmen together and start this business. In China, there doesn't seem to be a professional snack chain, and the kind of snack restaurants are all roadside stalls.
With the arrival of the hotel staff in the provincial capital, Xujiacun was completely lively, and these chefs not only knew how to cook, but also played with tricks.
Carve a pet with fruit for the children, or show off their vegetable cutting skills, and the chefs who stir-fry also play tricks.
Xu Wenjie thought that these chefs are almost the same as acrobatics, if they are unemployed, they can be organized together to open a chef acrobatics, and tourists are tired of watching and have to eat.
"Wen Jie is really good, not to mention anything else, just how much does these chefs cost!"
"I heard that they are all chefs from the provincial hotels, let's get the light of Wenjie, and we also taste the taste of these chefs who cook for the rich."
……
"Brother Wenjie, can you give me some photos of Simba, my classmates like Simba very much."
"I don't have it, you Feiyang brother does, you ask him for it."
At twelve o'clock in the afternoon, the feast began punctually, and the children were scurrying around on the road, and the adults were shouting and scolding in the back, and everyone began to sit at the table.
There is nothing particular about this kind of banquet, there will be no distinction between the old and the young, everyone can sit there if they want, and they can walk around in the middle, looking for their favorite dishes.
When they are young, all the children look forward to this kind of long feast, because at that time they can eat meat and all kinds of delicious fruits.
After the chefs prepared the dishes, they were pulled to sit down and eat, this special meal, they may have encountered it for the first time, and they were a little unable to let go at first.
But after a while, I was infected by everyone. There is a strange custom in this kind of hundred-table long banquet in Xujia Village, that is, it is not allowed to drink.
Xu Wenjie had heard the old man say it before, it seems that it was because when he held a hundred tables banquet in the past, because of drinking, Xujia Village was exploited by bandits in the mountains, and many people died in the end.
Since then, Xujia Village has had this rule, no alcohol is allowed at a hundred tables of long banquets, and then this custom has been retained until now.
In fact, it's okay, some people who come to eat a long banquet are likely to be from other villages, if you drink, it's okay not to get drunk, and some accidents are likely to happen when you get drunk.
Halfway through the meal, the uncle suddenly came over, pulled him to a place where no one was, and whispered: "Wenjie, the group of people on Woniu Mountain seems to be still measuring on it, when I called people in the morning, I heard from the people over there that they were ready to transport machinery to open the way on the mountain." ”
"These guys seem to really don't listen to persuasion, okay, I know about this uncle, don't worry, they will stop soon. Don't let people go to the top of Woniu Mountain to make trouble these days, it's useless, and it's still troublesome if something happens at that time. ”
"I listen to you, I can't solve it with the government."
After Xu Wenjie and Uncle returned to the dining table, they began to think about it. It seems that you really need to go to the bamboo forest, and if you don't listen to your own persuasion, then don't blame you for being ruthless.
"Feiyang, drive me to a place in the afternoon."
"Okay, you wait for me to finish eating."
This guy eats Xujia Village's special rice meatballs, which are made of soaked rice and the meat of some hares caught in the mountains. The taste is very delicious, Xu Wenjie liked to eat it most when he was a child.
"Okay, you can eat, it's delicious, I'm not in a hurry, as long as I can drive in the afternoon."
No longer disturbing him to eat, Xu Wenjie walked towards the chef's table, always saying thank you.
Before the long banquet was over, Xu Wenjie said to his family, and then pulled the fat man and asked him to drive him to the bamboo forest.
If you go straight from the mountains, it's only 5 kilometers away, but if you take the national highway, you need to walk 10 kilometers away. Compared to Xujia Village, this is the depths of the mountains.
"What are you doing here, barren mountains and mountains, you can't have asked that woman to come here for a tryst!"
", what the hell are you thinking. I'm here to find something to stop the construction of a resort on Wolong Mountain, and when I go into the mountain by myself, you can drive back, and if you don't go back at night, you and my parents can find an excuse to deal with it. ”
Qian Fat Man was a little puzzled, what was there to find here, which could solve the problem of Wolong Mountain Resort.
"I think, it's better for me to make a phone call and let someone solve it."
"Go, you're a short-term solution, if I don't anymore, there are still people to get the resort, it's not to trouble people, it's better to solve it once and for all. Alright, you go back, I'll go into the mountains by myself. ”
PS: Some things are disappearing now and may never be seen again.
