Volume 2 The Wind and the Water Chapter 139 The Value of a Bud
Looking at the thoughtful look of the Eight Yamas, I knew that this guy probably had some injuries back then, otherwise he wouldn't have said such painful words as soon as he opened his mouth.
I didn't pay attention to him, while flipping the bud rice, while playing with a few maids haha: "The baking method you just now is wrong, this thing can't be smeared with jam, it is originally a crispy way to eat, you will have a slimy feeling when you smear the jam, it doesn't hurt to put a little more spicy, you see, the bud rice grains have water, you put more chili noodles, its water will absorb it, and when the water is dried, the spicy taste will go in!" ”
Seeing so many people staring, a few maids were a little uncomfortable, Ping'er moved her body wittily, blocking her vision with my huge body, and she quietly asked me: "Fifth Master Wang, how did you do this?" I really didn't expect that a rich boss like you would do this kind of craft! ”
This is the difference caused by the different living environment, even the maid in the Tianxian Building does not know that this is the easiest way to eat in ordinary rural areas, roasted sweet potatoes, roasted potatoes, roasted wheat, scones, if you haven't eaten it, are you still a rural person?
But I don't like to be presumptuous, especially in this situation, we can't let a bunch of people look down on us, right? So, I calmly responded to Ping'er: "I'm used to eating delicacies from the mountains and seas, so it's good for your body to eat some of this coarse grain cold!" ”
Ping'er blinked her big eyes, and there was already a look of adoration on her face: "Fifth Master Wang really understands life!" ”
I finally know what life is, when I was a child, I ate like this, and when I grew up, I ate like this, and when I grew up, I ate like this, then I know life!
At this time, a few buds of rice were finally roasted under my careful care, and the buds of rice had become crystal clear under the action of the flame, and the golden light was shining, I took the iron chisel and handed it to a few maids for a string, and called Su Diao Complex and Liu Qian, the two of them looked at the steaming bud rice, and they didn't know what to say, so they simply took it and ate it slowly.
"Wow, it tastes so good! It's crispy, crispy, fragrant and spicy! This is Ping'er's evaluation.
"yes, I really didn't know that bud rice could still be roasted with this taste!" It seems that Ling'er is also very satisfied.
"It tastes great!" The Su Diao complex finally praised me!
"Big head, I didn't expect you to have a talent for dry barbecue, when we get home and get an iron stove, you roast us every day!" Liu Qian is a little unfluent in speaking, the roasted hot bud rice grains are too hot, this stupid woman eats in a hurry, and she is hotted from time to time.
As the saying goes, people eat more fragrantly, especially things that have not been eaten, there is an irresistible taste, plus a large number of people touted, this thing can immediately rise several grades, no, Ba Yan Luo saw that we were eating in full swing, and kept clicking his mouth and swallowing saliva, plus his high status, it was not easy to ask for it, so he had to cast a gaze to Gao Lao Er for help.
Gao Lao Er was very shrewd, and he asked me, "Brother, do you still have this thing?" ”
I turned around and glanced at Ping'er, this girl was concentrating all her fire on the bud in her hand, I coughed several times before this girl looked up at me: "What's wrong?" ”
Me: "Do you still have buds?" ”
Ping'er shook her head: "No, I didn't know this thing was so delicious, just a few strings, it's a pity!" After saying that, she began to attack the bud in her hand with all her strength.
I shrugged my shoulders and said to Gao Er, "No, I'm sorry!" ”
Bayan Luo showed a look of pity on the spot, although this guy doesn't seem to be full of brains, but the bulging belly, and the exaggerated mouth, and his bottomless pit name, all show that this guy is a complete foodie, the saddest thing for a foodie is to encounter something delicious, but he can only stand by pitifully and watch others taste it.
Gao Lao Er saw that I was still eating heavily, so he simply said to me: "Don't eat the half of the string in your mouth, let me taste the rest!" ”
"This ...... Not okay? "I don't care, I'm afraid people will dislike me.
"It's all men, where are there so many words, come, hurry up!" Gao Lao Er was a little anxious.
In desperation, I had to hand over half a bunch of buds in my hand!
Gao Lao Er didn't dislike me, took out a sachet from his pocket, opened the mouth of the sachet, took out a thin needle about two inches long from the sachet, took a cursory look, the material should be silver, this guy gently picked a grain of bud rice with a silver needle, handed it into his mouth, chewed it a few times seriously, and then, this guy shouted extremely exaggeratedly: "Incense, really fragrant, wonderful, really wonderful!" ”
I can't stand these words, and I have goosebumps all over my body, but that Bayan Luo seems to be even more curious, and his mouth keeps clicking, I guess there are people here, if there are only two of them, I am afraid that he would have already snatched it.
What is surprising is that the clever second brother did not take the initiative to hand the bud rice to the eight Yamas, but continued to pick off the rice grains with the silver needle in his hand, and after saving dozens of grains, he stuffed them into his mouth, and then chewed them in a big gulp.
After shouting a few times, he handed the bud rice to the eighth Yama Luo with unfinished thoughts: "Eighth master, do you taste it?" ”
Without saying a word, Ba Yan Luo took it and gnawed it in a big gulp.
Only then did I know the intention of Gao Lao'er's behavior just now, it turned out that he was afraid that Ba Yan Luo would dislike my saliva, so he deliberately picked out a buffer belt with a silver needle, what a monkey spirit monkey spirit person! It's no wonder that people do so much.
Then, we witnessed a good show of the Eight Yamas killing the bud rice sticks in seconds, this guy didn't care about his identity at all, at the beginning, he gnawed a few grains, tasted them in his mouth, and then began to gobble them up. In less than ten seconds, half of the bud stick was completely wiped out by him.
After this guy finished eating, he glanced at the other women with a lingering attitude, probably knowing that it was impossible to snatch food from women, and secondly, it was too cheap, so he gave up this idea and walked out of the room with a smile.
Gao Lao Er smiled, put his arm around my shoulder, and quietly stretched out his thumb to me as he walked out: "Brother, there is a play!" ”
Out of the room of a few maids, Bayan Luo sat down on the chair with a big grin, looked at me and Gao Lao Er with a smile, and asked, "Say, why do you have to invite me here?" It took so much effort to think of such a way to hook up with me, it's not a small matter, right? But that thing tastes really good, I remember tasting it many years ago, and it tastes better than last time, yes, it's really good! ”
Gao Lao Er stood up respectfully and saluted, and said sadly: "Eighth master, you also know that since I took over my father's stall, I have not been able to make any big achievements, and now the old people in the family are looking for my bad luck every day, hey, if it goes on like this, I am afraid that the younger generation will not be able to do this main thing!" ”
Bayan Luo smiled indifferently: "Didn't your father tell you when he put you in charge of the Gao family?" How can this be so good? I heard that your cousin's furniture factory and your cousin's glass are both impressive, you need to hold on tightly! ”
"Eighth Uncle!" Gao Lao Er couldn't hold his face a little, and shouted out such a sentence coldly.
I was shocked at the time, judging from the words before and after, this Gao Lao Er's father should have a good relationship with Ba Yanluo, otherwise Gao Lao Er would not dare to call his uncle someone, no wonder this guy is full of confidence, it turns out that there is such a relationship in it.
"You don't like to hear what I say, but I still have to nag a few words, when your father led a few of your brothers and sisters to my house to visit the door, which means that I can judge which is really the master of the family, I fell in love with you at first sight, although the affairs of your Gao family have nothing to do with me, but how to say that you are also the person I identify, why can't you lose my face? Although your business has not improved much over the years, it can be regarded as keeping the family business, what about me, I have also helped you when I can help you, this Nanming City has thousands of jade shops, it belongs to your family with the most guests, and the goods are the best, what are you not satisfied with? ”
It turns out that this is the case, this Ba Yan Luo must have a good relationship with the Gao family, and he can help the Gao family choose a successor, which is not something that can be achieved by ordinary relationships, and there is a lot of expectation in and out of these words, and he said it without any taboo about taking care of the Gao family, it seems that this relationship has reached the level that everyone knows.
Gao Lao Er's face was full of sadness, and his expression was lonely: "No matter how well you keep your business, it is not an achievement, how much hardship the younger generations have endured over the years, how many things have been done, they are not worth the little achievements of others, when I first took over the Gao family, there were less than 500 craftsmen in the workshop, and there were only 1,000 servants in the family, what about now?" The craftsmen are close to 20,000, and the servants at home are almost more than 50,000, which has increased dozens of times, and the old people in the family keep taking money from the public. If you don't have any money, you can ask me for it, but I have to be responsible for the whole family! A few old men are pretending to be forced outside, why do you want me to pay? Ignore them, right? Just hold a meeting and scold me,! I'm so depressed, why do they look at Xiao Liuzi and Fourth Sister so pleasing to the eye, isn't it because they have money in their hands, and they will give it when they say they will give it? They are all their own business, and they earn more and less by themselves, of course, they have a lot of spare money to pay respect, but what about me, my money is all in the public, and I use this money to support these old men and pretend to be forced, my grandfather and my father have to kill me! ”
Bayan Luo nodded: "That's true, I've also heard about your third uncle, you, you're doing work that isn't human inside and out, but when you took over at the senior level, you should have thought of this layer a long time ago?" ”
Gao Lao Er was silent for a moment: "Yes, the juniors live every day like walking on thin ice, and they don't dare to relax at all, no, recently the juniors met Wang Wuye Wang, and we talked about a big deal, but without the support of the eighth uncle, I'm afraid this thing can't be done!" ”
Eight Yama's face became serious: "What kind of business?" Let's talk about it! ”
Gao Lao Er took a deep breath, walked to Ma Feng's side, and said politely: "Mr. Ma, I want to trouble you to show your jade pendant, the eighth master is an expert, he will know it at a glance!" ”
Ma Feng quickly pulled off the jade pendant on his waist and handed it to Gao Lao's second-hand middle, Gao Lao Er didn't stop, turned around and presented the jade pendant to the hands of the Eight Yamas.
"Your craft has declined...... Wrong! Eight Yama's eyes suddenly lit up: "This jade material is not our Nanming, it seems that there is no such jade material in the Netherworld Continent, I seem to have seen it somewhere......"
As he spoke, the bottomless pit glanced at me strangely, with an extremely complicated meaning in his eyes, but soon the Eight Yamas turned his gaze to Gao Lao Er again, and said with a smile: "Have you negotiated the supply with these friends?" ”
Gao Lao Er nodded with a smile: "Exactly, it's just that my Gao family's quota has long been used up, no, the junior specially invited you over, just to ......"
Bayan's face changed, and he said coldly, "So, you want me to increase the quota for your family?" ”
Gao Lao Ershen said mysteriously: "Yes, no! ”
Yayama was expressionless: "What do you mean?" ”
Gao Lao Er quickly took out a piece of paper from his arms: "This is the quota book you signed to each family back then, the younger generation knows that the eighth uncle is a bright and upright person, so he doesn't dare to let the eighth uncle change the rules for my Gao family, but I found that there is such a sentence in the quota book of the eighth uncle, all levels of jade materials from low to high, there are quotas, and the number is subject to the data specified by the Yama Mansion every year, and the juniors have indeed used up the quotas of the past few years, but the juniors have used up the quotas of the various levels of jade listed in this quota book, Eighth Uncle, you have also seen it." , This jade material does not seem to be among these levels, so in other words, this can be regarded as a new level of jade material, eighth uncle, this new level of quota, my Gao family is useless! ”
