Chapter 117: Whole Fish Feast (Part II)
Towards dusk, whether it is the villagers who have gone down to the fields to farm, the employees who have completed their work, or the workers who have stopped working, they all gather in the old house at this time, not only the courtyard is full of people, but also a lot of places outside the door.
The feast even extends ten meters beyond the door
There was a lot of buzz.
After a while, dishes made of fish were served, braised fish belly, fish meat shredded, hot and sour fish offal, and chopped pepper fish head. Braised fish fillets, fish balls in clear soup......
Hundreds of dishes of astonishing amount are spread over the long spliced table of nearly ten meters, and there are at least thirty or forty plates left in the back kitchen.
"Alas, I am embarrassed to come if I always let Xiao Cheng treat you." Huang Mingquan, as the village head, was naturally the first to speak.
As soon as he finished speaking, a few old men immediately teased, "Hahaha, Lao Quan, then don't come next time." ”
Huang Mingquan glanced at the other party sadly, just how much you talk, don't you know if I'm polite? However, it was rare to be happy once, and he didn't intend to spoil the atmosphere of the scene, so he picked up his wine glass and said, "Come on, let's toast Xiao Cheng first." ”
Cheng Wei raised his glass to everyone, and poured down a cup of black stuff. Except for some of the women and children who drank soda and juice, the rest of the people had this jet-black liquid in their cups.
Needless to say, Cheng Wei's masterpiece, these jet-black liquids are actually dark beers on the market, and enjoy the reputation of 'black milk'. At present, these are brewed by Cheng Wei himself, and the main ingredient is newly cultivated burnt malt.
Although due to technical problems, the taste is not much better than that of the beer bought outside. It is pure natural and pollution-free, and it is rich in nutritional value. It includes low molecular weight sugars and amino acids, and also contains vitamin C, vitamin H, vitamin G, etc.
These parameters are at least double the amino acids of dark beer sold on the market, and the calorific value has increased from 100 kilocalories per 100 milliliters to 150 kilocalories per 100 milligrams.
Cheng Wei can't brew it, a total of 20 or 50KG barrels. In addition to drinking some by himself, he was more blackmailed by Lan Hu and Huang Mingquan and several old acquaintances.
Anyway, there are only a few buckets left, so simply take them out and let the villagers try them. Anyway, in a few days he will have to make another batch of wine. This time, however, it is no longer brewing dark beer, but mainly wine and champagne. Technically, he had already started a copy of "Intermediate Brewing Technique", but he had almost completely mastered the contents.
Everyone was happily eating at one end, and the two old men who loved to quarrel quarreled again.
"This meat belly is delicious, I thought it would be very old, but I didn't expect it to be so tender."
"You see, you see, you always say that other people's hair is long and your knowledge is short, but I think your hair is short and your knowledge is not long. Sturgeon fish, you know what it is, don't? Is this a comparison of body type and age? ”
"As far as you know, you have the ability to tell you about it."
"I'm sure I understand, I'm afraid you'll hurt your self-esteem if you say it. Old fisherman, you come to give him a boost of knowledge. ”
"Cut, look at your face, you know how much better I am."
The old fisherman in the village immediately pulled the two apart and explained to them: "It is true that this sturgeon cannot be measured by its age, and according to my many years of experience in fish watching, the age is only between fifteen and twenty years. The average sturgeon has a lifespan of at least 50 years. In comparison, this fish is still very young, and the meat is naturally not rough. ”
"Did you hear that, what Lao Diao said is what I want to say."
"Cut, why don't you say that what he eats is what you eat, don't eat it if you have the ability."
"How can it be the same? Then why don't you say that your son and daughter-in-law are your daughter-in-law? ”
"That's enough! Don't go too far. ”
Cheng Wei shook his head, fortunately these two old men didn't sit beside him, otherwise they wouldn't be safe to eat.
At this time, a villager ran in, and said excitedly to Cheng Wei and Huang Mingquan: "Boss, the village chief... Our village has come to the big official. ”
Huang Mingquan picked his teeth with a fishbone, and said, "What is a big official or a big official, make it clear." ”
"That's it... News can often be seen by others. The villagers tried their best to recall: "Yes, yes, yes, it is the mayor of our town." ”
Huang Mingquan's feet slipped and he almost slipped under the table. asked excitedly; "Who are you talking about, the mayor is here?"
"I just saw a car on the road driving into our village, license plate XCX123, I looked at the image and came to tell you." The villagers scratched their heads, not too sure.
Huang Mingquan stood up immediately, this license plate number was indeed the mayor's car, even if it was not driven by him, it was probably his exclusive secretary.
Huangjia Village has not had officials willing to come in for several years, and now that the town mayor is here, will the future of Huangjia Village be far away? immediately urged Cheng Wei and said, "Xiao Cheng, don't eat, go out with me to pick up the mayor first." ”
"What's my business? Uncle Quan, it's good for you to go. ”
"No, you have to go."
"Okay, okay, you give me some time and I'll pick my teeth first."
"You... Alas! ”
……
The ink was inked for several minutes, and Cheng Wei really couldn't stand it, so he followed Huang Mingquan out of the banquet. Who knew that they didn't need to greet them at all, the mayor's car was already parked not far from the old mansion.
Huang Mingquan immediately stepped forward and complimented: "Ouch, why didn't Mayor Fang come over and tell me in advance, you see that I can't bring the villagers to meet you now, it's really rude." ”
Mayor Fang smiled and said unobtrusively: "It's okay, it's okay, I'll stop by to take a look today." This must be the owner of the entire Swallow Ridge, right? Mayor Fang put his arm on Cheng Wei's shoulder and said, "It's really young and promising." ”
"Hello Mayor Fang, just call me Xiao Cheng." He had also heard of this Mayor Fang, and his full name was Fang Ding. With a medium height and a fat and fat volume, the whole person looks very approachable.
Originally, he planned to let the secretary drive directly to Yanziling to check, but when he came here, he saw a large group of people having dinner, although Fang Ding was an official on the surface, the bottom was still the essence of a foodie.
However, when he heard Huang Mingquan talk about the sturgeon fish he ate, he condemned it repeatedly: "Confused, you guys, although this kind of fish can be eaten, at least you have to give instructions to the leader on the matter, and you can't just deal with it yourself." ”
Cheng Wei immediately betrayed Huang Mingquan, pointed and said, "Na, our leader has approved." ”
Huang Mingquan called that shame, if there was really any blame from above, it would really fall on him, the village chief. Fortunately, the mayor didn't have the attitude of pursuing it, so he tentatively said: "Mayor Fang, why don't you have a bowl too?" ”
"Alas, you are still eating and drinking at this time." Fang Tian looked at the villagers who were eating deliciously, sighed and said, "Okay, then let's have a bowl." ”
