For Hu Ke, it is undoubtedly the greatest happiness to be praised for the things he grows, just as chefs want others to eat the food they have worked so hard to make.
At this time, Yun Yi was naturally very happy to see Li Mu, Wang Tao and Jon devouring this seemingly ordinary cherry tomatoes like this. As for the eating appearance of these foreigners, Yun Yi and Hu Ke, who already have a certain understanding of the things grown in the greenhouse, did not seem too shocked.
It wasn't until Yun Yi saw that these foreigners wanted to eat again when they were still unsatisfied, so he hurriedly said, "Jon, you don't want to use this fruit to solve the problem of dinner today, right?" Besides, delicious Chinese dishes have been prepared for you, is it possible that you don't want to try it? ”
Hearing Yun Yi say this, Wang Tao and Li Mu looked at him directly, and when Jon saw Wang Tao's expression, he also turned his head and looked at Yun Yi suspiciously, seeing them looking at him like this, Yun Yi not only smiled, but also said again teasingly: "Wait for dinner later, not only will there be good food, but also good wine, and there will be good tea after dinner!" ”
Jon didn't know what Yunyi was trying to express, but Li Mu and Wang Tao knew, good things! I drank it a few months ago, and my saliva is going to run down when I think about it!
Jon was even more puzzled and curious when he saw Wang Tao quietly swallowing saliva, turned sideways, and asked softly, "Wang, was the Chinese dinner you said really delicious?" I've eaten Chinese food in other places, and the taste can only be said to be okay, but it's not delicious, right? ”
Listening to Jon ask himself like this, Wang Tao subconsciously wiped the saliva on the side of his mouth and said: "Jon, the boss's food has nothing to say, the wine can't be found outside, let alone the tea, I don't know how to describe it to you, it's not too early now, it's almost dinner time, just hold on a little longer!" ”
Hearing Wang Tao's description, Jon was even more confused.
Time flickered and it was time for dinner, Chen Mu and Chen Ming also made dinner, Chen Ming came to Yunyi's side and said, "Boss dinner is ready!" ”
Yunyi stood up and said, "Peaches, wood, you beckon Jon and them to take a seat and have dinner!" ”
Two quaint tables of eight immortals have been set up in the dining hall of the courtyard, which makes Jon and his party a little uncomfortable, and before they sit down, the smell of food on the table attracts these foreigners, and after seeing the old man sitting on the main seat, everyone also sat down.
Yunyi asked Chen Ming to take out a small jar of Baiguo wine brewed some time ago, which seemed to be about ten catties. As soon as the wine was served, dinner in the courtyard began.
In front of Jon was a dish of orange-scented chrysanthemum fish, and Yun Yi motioned for him to taste it first. Jon was not polite, and reached out his chopsticks to pick up a piece on the back of the fish and put it in his mouth.
When the surface is crispy and the inside is tender, the fish melts as if there is no condensation, and the touch of the tongue is like silk, and the delicious, fragrant, sweet and sour taste quickly spreads, filling the entire mouth and rushing to the throat.
"The meat is delicious, full of elasticity, and it must be the best carp in the wild." Jon's tone fluctuated a little, it had been a long time since he had eaten such a mellow taste of wild fish.
Hearing Jon's praise, it also caused the others to have a great appetite, and they put down their chopsticks one after another, and the two carps weighing more than a pound quickly disintegrated under the powerful attack of the gluttons, leaving only a pile of fish bones.
"Cloud, thank you so much! I haven't seen such a pure wild fish in years. Jon said.
"Yes! It has a mellow and rich taste, and it is even more delicious than Chinese cuisine in other places! One of Jon's accompaniments also said. It seems that he is also a big fan of Chinese cuisine.
"Jon, how can you be sure it's a wild carp?" Another foreigner humbly asks Jon for advice.
Jon smiled slightly, and said unhurriedly: "In fact, the reason is very simple, the raised fish are raised in a small pond, which is dense and lacks exercise, and the addition of various auxins in the fish feed causes the fish meat to be loose and tasteless. Wild fish are different, they live in the vast rivers, lakes and seas, eat natural food, and because it is not easy to eat, they have to swim a long distance every day, and they exercise sufficiently, so the meat is elastic enough and delicious. ”
"This also depends on the fact that the water of our Qingshui River is not polluted and is completely natural, so that such wild fish can be raised." Wang Tao added.
The foreigners present all praised them, saying that they had gained knowledge. Wang Tao took the "Hundred Fruit Wine" that Chen Ming took out and poured a glass in front of everyone.
After a while, the aroma of Baiguo wine spread in the dining hall, Jon sniffled, the smell of wine was too tempting, he couldn't wait to take a sip of the wine glass, and then sat there with his eyes closed and didn't move, the other foreigners who had already held the wine glass were stunned when they saw Jon's appearance, and they didn't know what happened to Jon.
When Jon opened his eyes and saw his colleagues looking at him, he realized that he was a little out of shape, but he didn't care so much, he took another sip of the wine glass, and Wang Tao, Li Mu and others next to him drank it early.
The atmosphere in the dining hall is also warm, with sweet boiled shrimp with bright red stripes, clotted wild fish soup, sweet and refreshing hot and sour melon strips, and fresh and sweet chopped pepper loofah cups, all of which come from the greenhouse planted by Hu Ke; Everyone at the table was immersed in the impact of food and wine.
When the last drawer of fine xiaolongbao was divided, the diners breathed a long sigh of relief in satisfaction, and their faces were full of red. It is said that this trip is really a worthwhile place, the food is enjoyable, and the wine is also enjoyable.
Yun Yi looked at the plate that was looted on the table, listened to the compliments of a group of foreigners, and couldn't help but feel proud in his heart, this dinner not only earned him a lot of face, but also won benefits for the company to strengthen cooperation with foreigners in the future.
"Yun, thank you so much for the dinner, we had a very pleasant meal, this is the best banquet I have had in China for so many years, thank you very much for your hospitality! John Jon sincerely thanked Yunyi.
After the meal, a group of people returned to the courtyard, and a cup of fragrant tea was indispensable, which has been a habit of the Mid-Levels platform for many years; Chen Ming lifted a long-spouted copper teapot and poured all the gaiwan tea in front of everyone.
After a minute, the fresh and pleasant aroma slowly spread through the room, and everyone seemed to be in the green grass of the mountains, as if they were standing on the top of a high cliff overlooking the earth.
"What a pure smell." John Jon is a master tea drinker, and when he smells it, he knows that the tea in the cup is extraordinary.
He held up the tea bowl with his left hand, gently scraped the water surface with the tea lid with his right hand, then tilted the tea bowl and slowly inhaled. Close your eyes and savor it.
"The brown color is clear and sweet, and it is the essence of fresh, refreshing and lively, and it is really the best quality." Jon said with a smile of praise.
"The tea fragrance is long and long, condensed but not dispersed, and its taste is fresh and round, which is really good." A foreigner in his forties who accompanied him also put down the tea bowl and nodded in agreement.
John Jon is looking forward to visiting the planting base in River Valley Village this time, and he doesn't know what surprises this place will bring to his party tomorrow.
