Chapter 10 Heavy promises have no edges, and great ingenuity seems to be clumsy
The two sat down separately, Li Le poured wine for the three buckets of gold, and asked casually: "In addition to the master's cooking skills, the third master seems to have reached the peak of his kung fu cultivation. ”
Sandoujin waved his hand in thanks, and said, "In my early years, I learned from the master for a few years Wing Chun White Crane. He also said: "Dry cook, pay attention to hands, eyes, nose, practice a few hands of kung fu is very helpful to the way of cooking, these years in order to maintain the physical condition, has not dared to delay, the peak is not to talk about the peak, that is, to strengthen the body, but let Mr. Li laugh at me half-heartedly." ”
He said modestly, but Li Le knew very well in his heart that Sandoujin's kung fu cultivation had reached an extremely high level, and it was not much worse than Li Qianjun at his peak.
Sandoujin's attention was attracted by the knife cover that Li Le casually put on the table, and said while watching: "The gunner in eastern Henan, the swordsman in Guanxi, the gun in eastern Henan is passed down from the Yang family gun, the long bridge is as fierce as a dragon, but the knife in Guanxi is handed down by Li Jing, the prince of Tang Wei, and the heavy knife is dangerous and fierce, but who would have thought that the eighteen beheadings of the Li family, who had beheaded people on the battlefield, were used in the kitchen case today. ”
"The third master deserves to be a great expert." Li Le opened the knife holster, showed all the remaining seventeen knives inside, picked up the ghost head knife, and said, "But the guy who is used as a cook by the Li family's eighteen chops is by no means a pearl in the dust. ”
Sandou Jin Zhengse said: "Would you like to hear about it?" ”
"My family's ancestral set of knives originated from the Tang Dynasty, it was the Tang Dynasty when King Li Kui invited Longquan casting master Fan Mengjin to build, although Li Kui is a prince, but he is a foodie with no ambitions, his favorite in life is the appetite, the original intention of this set of knife forging is for the kitchen."
Li Le casually took out a very short arc-shaped knife from the knife sleeve and introduced: "This is called Cunxin, which was originally used to cut raw oysters and pick the gills of fish, but unfortunately in the middle of the family, this knife came in handy in the late Qing Dynasty, but it came in handy in the chopping execution, I don't know how many heroes and heroes were killed, because it is ominous, so since my great-great-grandfather's life, this knife has never been on the kitchen case." ”
Sandou Jin's face showed regret, and he couldn't take his eyes off the 'inch heart' in Li Le's hand, and sighed: "This knife is as thin as silkworm wings, but it is harder than ice, the knife edge is tactful, and the blade is cold, it is the best knife for cooking and carving, and using it to make the dish of the Ten Thousand Buddhas Dynasty Sect will definitely get twice the result with half the effort!" ”
Li Le smiled lightly, but put down the 'inch heart' and said, "Since I have already said that this knife is ominous, how can I let it be used in the kitchen again." ”
Sandoujin was slightly surprised, glanced at Li Le deeply, and then lowered his head and took out another knife with a slender blade, but the lines were horizontal and vertical, and the shape was very unique, and asked, "What is the name of this knife?" Just look at the shape, used to make the Ten Thousand Buddhas Dynasty, the effect may not be inferior to the 'inch heart'. ”
"The name of the knife is 'inch broken'." Li Le smiled bitterly: "Speaking of it, there are more people who died under its knife than that 'inch heart', back then, the 'inch heart' was used to dig out the heart, and the 'inch break' was the main knife of fish scale and torture." ”
Sandou Jin cherished the knife edge of the sharp blade of the 'inch break', his eyes showed eagerness and regret, and sighed: "What a wonderful good knife, the blade is like a swimming fish, the knife is in the autumn wind, if you use it to cut the bones and remove the meat, the second-rate knife can also cut out first-class dishes." ”
Li Le took out another short knife from the sleeve and introduced: "There is a knife for cutting meat, and there is a special one for cutting bones. ”
Sandoujin was a little dizzying, hurriedly took it in his hand, and took a closer look, this 'horizontal stripe' is long and half inches wide, the blade is tough, flat and white as a mirror, the edge is fast and not obvious, gently shakes tactfully and casually, and praises sincerely: "It's really a good knife for cutting bones, the blade is tough but not soft, and the circle turns freely, and it is really good to do the meticulous work of drilling the bone cracks." ”
Li Le smiled slightly and said, "This knife has never been stained with human blood, and in recent years, my ancestors have used it occasionally when cooking." ”
Three buckets of gold only said that Li Le planned to use this knife to make that Ten Thousand Buddhas Dynasty, he took out the eighteen knives one by one, put them in one mouth, and looked at them while asking, and couldn't put them down. After looking at it for a long time, he let out a long breath before asking, "Which knife does Mr. Li plan to use to complete this Ten Thousand Buddhas Dynasty Sect tonight?" ”
Li Le looked at him with a smile, his eyes swept over the neatly arranged eighteen knives, and finally stopped at the short, rough and simple, heavy bladeless 'heavy promise'.
Nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine figures were carved into the three-foot-square tofu, and the knife required was naturally as small and clever as possible. This is common sense, even if the culinary knife skill has reached the realm of three buckets of gold, it will take it for granted to recognize this truth. And Li Le picked and chosen, but in the end, he chose the heaviest and least sharp of the eighteen knives. This move greatly surprised Sandoujin.
After all, he is extraordinary, and he doesn't have to ask about everything, but he is engrossed in looking at the 'heavy promise' selected by Li Lexuan and thinking about the deep meaning of Li Lexuan's knife alone. The night was dark, the moonlight was dim, and the light shining into the room was even more solemn and solemn.

At three o'clock in the morning, the chef of Huaiyang cuisine in Chunfeng Building personally led people to send two pieces of tofu three feet square overnight, and placed them on the table prepared by the two of them.
Sandou Jin said: "The safest way to make a tofu banquet is to complete it in the water, but that is for ordinary cooks, like you and me, who are already sensitive to the hands, eyes, mind, and senses, they don't have to make this dish in the water tank." After a pause, he said: "There is a master who specializes in making tofu in Chunfeng Building, but although this tofu is a common dish in the north and south, the methods are not the same in different regions, but I don't know if this Huai'an tofu in Chunfeng Building is in line with your habits?" ”
"Although I haven't been a cook for a day, I also know that this tofu is crispy in the north and glutinous in the south, only Huaiyang tofu is moderately soft and hard, and it is the most suitable for carving kung fu. Li Le picked up Wufeng's 'Chongnuo', walked to the table with slow but mysterious rhythmic steps, turned his head and smiled at Sandoujin: "I can use this Huai'an tofu to make this Ten Thousand Buddhas Dynasty Sect, in fact, I have taken a big advantage." ”
Just do it, Li Le said ugly, and waved out of his hand with a 'heavy promise'!
The jet-black 'Chongnuo' knife light was like a dark cloud blown by a strong wind, sweeping the entire tofu in it, and the chopped tofu residue splashed like snow foam.
For a while, the clouds and snow were chaotic, so it was not lively.
The layman looks at the bustle, and the insider looks at the doorway. As soon as 'Chongnuo' moved, the three buckets of gold on the side followed suit.
Li Le's heavy knife is extremely fast and skillful, and each time he swings out, in addition to slashing, it is more ingenious and shocking, and those splashes of tofu are not so much chopped down, but rather shaken down. The quick knife to cut tofu relies on the knife to be quick and skillful, and Li Le plays with carving on the tofu with such a heavy knife as 'Chongnuo', but it relies on a deep understanding of the knife and the ability to use the force skillfully.
After two hours, the fragments were scattered, and Li Le had completed the first layer of carving. However, the three-foot-square tofu is planned into the shape of a tofu mountain, and at the base of the mountain, 3,600 characters are criss-crossed, each with expressive appearance, different movements, and vividness.
"Heavy knives have no edges, and they don't work!" Sandoujin was amazed, and praised sincerely: "Don't say that you have seen such a knife technique, it is the first time to hear it, the most difficult part of this Ten Thousand Buddhas Dynasty Sect is the basic 3,600 Buddha statues, this first step Mr. Li has done perfectly, and the rest does not have to be done, I am willing to bow down." ”
This Sandoujin master has the name of a southern kitchen god on his head, and his reputation in the culinary world is not below Li Qianjun. But at this moment, it is said so happily. It can be seen that this person is a man who can afford to put it down.
Li Le admired it, didn't think much of it, hurriedly put the knife into the set, and said: "There is a specialization in the art industry, and this is what the Kansai swordsman plays, and the third master is too polite." ”
Sandoujin waved his hand and said: "Do what we do, pay attention to money to suppress the hands of slaves, and art to suppress pedestrians, and craftsmanship will not deceive people." ”
Li Le said: "The third master thinks I'm okay with it for a few moments? ”
Sandoujin hugged his fists and said: "If you are willing to cooperate with Yipinju, I am willing to give up the position of the chef of the four seas!" ”
Li Le smiled, shook his head and said: "The third master is serious, there are a lot of things in the kitchen, and they are by no means something that can be played with with a knife, so I can handle it with these two strokes." After a pause, he said: "We agreed before, the knife work will win or lose, since the third master intends to tolerate, even if I am lucky to win this game, forget about the cooperation, and the promise to ask the third master to forgive." ”
Sandoujin said: "This is natural! However, I still hope that Mr. Li will not be in a hurry to talk to death, as far as I know, Bao 616161616161"
Li Le waved his hand to interrupt his words and said, "The third master doesn't know, I have already made a decision before you came, Taihang Lou will quit the catering business from today and change to operate a hotel, this Ten Thousand Buddhas Dynasty Sect may be the last time I will use a knife to cook." ”
Sandoujin was startled at first, then showed regret and persuaded: "Can't Mr. Li think about it anymore?" The three-hundred-year-old golden signboard of Taihang Tower was given up like this, don't you think it's a pity? ”
"Everything has a beginning and an end, and the signboard of Taihang Tower is just one of them." Li Le stretched his waist and said in a lazy tone: "In my bones, I am actually a very lazy person, but running a restaurant is a very hard job, and I have this self-knowledge in this regard." ”
Sandoujin wanted to persuade him again, but Li Le continued before he spoke: "I Li Lexin has received the kindness of the third master, and I now fully believe in the sincerity of Yipinju and Miss Fan to Taihang Lou and the Li family, but I am used to being lazy, and I really have no interest in the catering industry." ”
No matter how many good things you say, there is an end, and San Doujin is not a person with a sharp tongue, and when it comes to this, he has nothing to say. The nostalgic gaze glanced at the eighteen knives, and finally said goodbye to Li Le with a long sigh.
Li Le had planned to go to the door to openly challenge Sandoujin, but he didn't expect that Sandoujin would visit Taihang Tower at night last night, so he finalized this contest. Although the process was a little sloppy, I didn't see the strength of the three buckets of gold. But it finally achieved its goal. Ling Chunfeng Lou retracted the promise to buy double treasures. But it is too early to say that the troubles of Chunfeng Building have been completely solved.
First of all, Li Le was puzzled why Yipinju came to the ancient city to open a semicolon, and why did he help Bao Dejin to find trouble with Taihang Tower? Since he is here to find trouble, why is it that until now, he has the intention of helping each other? Are they coming for Shuangbao, or are they also coming for Taihang Tower like Bao Dejin?
Although Sandoujin didn't make a move tonight, Li Letong Guò had a general impression of his strength when he observed it closely. Those who know that their kung fu cultivation has reached the realm of three buckets of gold are all people with great perseverance, and the so-called temptation of interests is not enough to make them tempted, and they are willing to be driven. Yipinju has such a character in charge, if he also wants to fight the idea of Taihang Tower, it is even more difficult than ten Zhao Fengbo's Chengnan Gang.

At ten o'clock in the morning, in front of the gate of Taihang Tower, the stone with the little aunt was taking off the golden signboard of Taihang Tower. Li Le watched expressionlessly from the side.
The plaque, which has endured 300 years of wind and frost, has been hidden for the third time. For the first time, because of the fall of the ancient city during the anti-Japanese period, Li Qianjun slashed the leader of the devil squad Niwa Jingzang, and Li Wanli, the old shopkeeper of Taihang Building, self-immolated. The second time was after the liberation, when the government engaged in public-private partnerships, and Li Qianjun refused to cooperate, preferring to take off the plaque and close the door to live by himself.
The first two times can be said to be forced by the world, but in the peaceful years, it was the first time to break the problem by taking off the plaque and changing careers.
The stone looked lonely, hugged the old plaque, came to Li Le, and asked, "Brother Le, is there still a chance to hang the plaque when it is taken down?" ”
Li Le frowned slightly, and said, "What are you still hanging it for?" Haven't you paid enough? But he said in his heart: "Good brother, don't worry, wait until we get through this hurdle, and when I can rest assured that I will hand over this place to you." ”
Li Yuhan walked over, grabbed the big hand of the stone with his small hand, and said, "Big stone, you can rest assured." He raised his hand and pointed at Li Le and said, "With this guy here, Taihang Lou won't fall." ”
Li Le's eyes were on the end of the street in front of the door, and from there, from far and near, three luxury cars were slowly coming.
The Rolls-Royce that walked in the front was the exclusive car of Zhao Fengbo, the boss of the Chengnan Gang. Immediately behind him was a Cadillac head of state, which has always been known for its high safety factor, which is in line with the style of Tang Rulin, who is known for his fear of death. Walking in the last is an Audi Parker Peak that costs more than 200 million yuan.
Who is this?
Whoever comes, it's certain that trouble is finally coming as promised. Li Le remembered what Fan Qinghui said before leaving last night, she said that she and Taihanglou had little time, and it seemed that she had already known the news.
What should come will come, and sooner or later it will be a problem if the pustule is not squeezed. The other party put on a posture of being overwhelmed by soldiers, but Li Le was planning to finish the battle.
The three cars slowly drove into the parking lot in front of the Taihang Building, and Zhao Fengbo and Tang Rulin got out of the car in no particular order and walked straight towards Li Le.
Zhao Fengbo was full of energy, and said from afar: "Yo, what do you mean?" Is this going to close the doors? I just served you an hors d'oeuvre, and you can't stand it? ”
"Hors d'oeuvres?" Li Le looked at him with a smile, and his tone was contemptuous: "Geng four-eyed?" ”
Shi Yi stood sideways, glared at Zhao Fengbo, and said, "The surname is Zhao, what are you doing here?" Geng Siyan came to the store to make trouble, I beat him, what did you say to me. ”
This kid has been like this since he was a child, he rarely cares about his own affairs, but he often comes out for the things that Li Le provokes. Li Le glanced at the little aunt next to her who was trying to stop but didn't stop the stone, and the little girl was puffing out her cheeks and glaring at her. I couldn't help but smile slightly.
The little aunt has lived with Shi Shi for seven years, and her feelings for Shishi's god-nephew are much deeper than those for Li Le, her own nephew. In her precocious little brain that does not match her age, Li Le and the stone are always the ones who suffer.
Li Le ignored the strange little aunt anymore, turned to the stone and said, "What are you doing with him?" The main protagonist hasn't appeared yet, the mouse is dragging the wooden shovel, and the big head is behind. As he spoke, he pointed to the Audi Pike Peak, which had just stopped.
Tang Rulin and Zhao Fengbo walked side by side, followed by a tall and thin man with arms like a thick ape. The old boy suffered a dumb loss last time, and he hated Li Le to the core. When I saw Li Le at this time, I still lived there. shouted loudly: "The surname is Li, the king of Hades named you, the little ghost hooks the soul, you are dead today." ”
Li Le was unmoved, and looked at him contemptuously, "Am I dead or alive, have you done it?" ”
Tang Rulin was suddenly dumbfounded, and subconsciously glanced back at the Pikes Peak jeep behind him.
The jeep stopped there in silence, and the owner of the car sat behind without moving, and from this angle, only the angular face of the driver in the driver's seat could be seen.
Tang Zhao and the others glanced at each other, and the latter took a sip lightly, and said: "Li Le, don't be crazy, you kid don't be crazy, there is no Chen Hui to help you today, if you want to call the police, you can do whatever you want, but let me remind you that Mr. Bao came over in person today to give you a chance, and if you know each other, just talk to Mr. Bao, otherwise, there will be more than one plaque taken off in your Taihang Building today." ”
Li Le motioned to the stone to take the little aunt behind, but Li Yuhan took the initiative to break away from the big hand of the stone and said: "You adults are the most inexplicable, you don't have a good life, you want to fight for it, is it so rare?" ”
Li Lemu sent her into the backyard, then turned his head, looked at Zhao Tang and the others playfully, and said, "You two brothers have successfully scared me, now it's time for the main brother to appear on the stage, right?" ”
There was a slight noise from the back door of the jeep, and the driver got out of the car and opened the door, and a person stepped out of the car.
