Volume 3 Pauling Prefecture Chapter 3 The Great Feast of Mankind
The young city lord lost his spirit after being treated indifferently by Qi Luna, and walked to his room dejectedly, and happened to meet the lady who heard the news on the way, and the maid who accompanied him stepped forward to salute, and the lady hurriedly took the young city lord's hand and accompanied him.
"Mingde, what's going on outside, I heard the attendants say that a black dragon landed in the square, isn't it..."
"You're really well-informed, it's Na... The dragon of the Patriarch, no need to make a fuss. ”
"Patriarch, isn't her dragon golden, how did it turn black, and what about her, didn't she come in with you?"
She took Mu Chen and them to dinner. ”
"Mu Chen, why is this name so familiar, Mu Chen!" the young city lord's wife suddenly realized.
"Quick, go and tell the kitchen, the more hearty the preparation, the better, don't slack off. Madame instructed the maid beside her.
"No, they went out to eat, not in the courtyard. ”
"Go out to eat, Lao Chen, why don't you follow and serve, you don't even have this eyesight, you have followed your father for so many years. ”
"What do you say he is doing, and he is still serving? That Mu Chen didn't take me seriously at all, and even Nana went against me uncharacteristically. Now even you..."
"Young master, there is one more thing that the old slaves have to tell you, the Patriarch will not return to the council tonight, and will stay outside for the night. Lao Chen interrupted them for fear of a quarrel between the husband and wife, and just took this opportunity to say what Mo Cheng didn't dare to say.
"What? Don't go back to the council, why didn't you say it earlier, let's go, go find Nana now. The young city lord lost his mind a little, turned around and was about to leave.
"Young master... Young master, don't worry, it's getting late now, and we don't know where the Patriarch is staying, and the search for the Patriarch is afraid that it will bring panic, and Mo Cheng only told me that they are staying out tonight, and they don't mean to leave, I will arrange for people to visit in a while, and you will visit again tomorrow morning, and take the Patriarch back by the way. ”
"Yes, yes, Mingde, you still listen to Lao Chen, I'll accompany you tomorrow. ”
"You... Forget it, find out Nana's residence and inform me as soon as possible, and if there is any concealment, I..."
"Lao Chen, if there is news, let me know, you can do it at any time. With that, the lady also turned to leave.
Lao Chen finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the two masters had left, straightened his waist and arranged for someone to inquire about the news of the patriarch.
Mu Chen waited for the first sumptuous dinner on the Human Continent at Jiaweixuan, and after about twenty minutes, they began to serve the food, and after a while, the table in front of them was filled, and the boss also came in to serve him personally.
"Boss, let's introduce us two wasteland guests, what is this big table, I haven't eaten any of them. Murphy said.
"Wild... Wasteland guests, I said that when I first saw the two of you, I felt that the appearance was extraordinary, and the temperament was fresh and refined, and it turned out to be from the wasteland. ”
"You just introduce the food, don't open your eyes and talk nonsense, you don't know what humans think of the wasteland people, what nonsense is you talking about with a conscience here. Murphy exposed him mercilessly.
"Dark Orange, you... Okay, I'll introduce you to the dishes. "The two sisters were very happy to be complimented by humans for the first time, but they became embarrassed when they heard Mo Cheng say this, and they didn't know where to put their eyes.
"You're talking too much. Okay, let's eat the two eldest ladies with fresh and refined temperament. Boss, you can explain it on the side. Mu Chen scolded Mo Cheng, so frightened that she hurriedly hid behind Qi Luna.
Everyone picked up the tableware and prepared to eat, and the boss explained in detail next to him: "A total of ten dishes have been prepared for you, namely pan-fried lamb chops, boiled and drummed shrimp, fried matsutake mushrooms in mountain lard, bluefin tuna sashimi, steamed lobster with garlic, red stewed wild hare, turtle dove and shiitake mushroom stew, foie gras in red wine, young leaves of sesame radish, and crispy celery core." The boss introduced the name of the dish with his hand.
"The lamb chops are selected from the short-tailed goats that have been fed high-grade feed in the eastern farm for half a year, and they are slaughtered and salted yesterday to ensure that the meat is soft and tender. The foie gras is provided by local hunters, and the eggs are made from adult wild geese on the way to migrate, and the liver is first stir-fried over low heat until matured, and then the wine is poured with the sauce that has been added in advance to enhance the flavor, and the taste is smooth and dense. ”
"The drumming shrimp are delivered in the afternoon, raised in the tank downstairs, each fresh, cooked with the river water of the Qiling River where they grow, you can peel the skin and eat it directly to feel the original taste, or you can dip it in the rice pepper sauce to experience a more stimulating taste. ”
"Boss, are you sure this is Qi Lingjiang's? The shrimp in the Jiayuan River can't be eaten. Mu Chen interrupted the boss and asked where the shrimp came from.
"Don't worry, it's definitely from Qi Lingjiang, I don't dare to lie to you, these distinguished guests and the patriarch. ”
"What's wrong with the Homeland River, is there any difference?" asked Junyue.
"The Jiayuan River runs through Baoling City from north to south, which is the natural drainage system in the city, and many people wash clothes in it, discharge household garbage and waste water, which is not clean. ”
"This lord sees that you are called Baoling City, you have been here before, the Jiayuan River is much cleaner now, since the young city lord took over and vigorously governed it, it is no longer the original stinky river. Moreover, the drumming shrimp only grows in the Qiling River, and does not produce in the Jiayuan River, which you can rest assured. ”
"Don't care, I'm just asking. Mu Chen stopped pursuing and motioned for him to continue.
"Yusheng has selected three parts for you, the front abdomen has a high fat content, the taste is the best, the middle abdomen fat content is moderate, not greasy or greasy, and the red meat is the back naked, so that you can experience the chewing pleasure brought by the fish muscles. Cut the lobster from the back, smear with minced garlic juice and let it rest, then steam it in a steamer in boiling water for five to eight minutes, then sprinkle with chopped chives and pour with hot olive oil. Bluefin tuna and flat lobster come from the Heavenly Sea of Bao Ling Prefecture and are stored in ice buckets as soon as they arrive to ensure that the meat is fresh and delicious. ”
"Matsutake mushrooms are made from the Giant Tree Forest, and we buy them at a high price from hired people, and they are easily fried in mountain lard and eaten with fragrant flavors, so if you think it's a little light, you can sprinkle some salt to make it to suit your taste. ”
"Forest of the Giant Tree, you still have contact with the Spirit Clan, don't they never leave the top of the tree, and they never interact with other races?" asked Mu Chen curiously.
"Spirits, we just bought the materials from the merchant, we don't know how he got it, if you are curious about this, I can take you to the mercenary who provides the materials, and it is better for you to ask in person. ”
"Why do you talk so much, I didn't see that we were fascinated by what we heard, I didn't expect that human food practices still have such a big knowledge, and even the way to eat is so particular, your constant interjection affects my appetite. Jia Yue complained about Mu Chen and told him to shut up.
"Okay, okay, you go on, go on. ”
"Although the wild hare is not as rich as captive rabbits, but the meat quality is firmer, we select the easy-to-eat parts to simmer over low heat, and then add oil to the soup to absorb and stir-fry twice out of the pot. The turtledove mushroom pot is served for everyone, with shiitake mushrooms in the broth, boiled in a casserole for two hours to let the flavor of the meat and shiitake mushrooms blend into the soup, and finally add a little salt to taste. Wild hares and turtle doves come from the border mountains and grow in a completely wild environment, without any human intervention. ”
"There is still this delicacy in the border mountains, I knew that I would catch a rabbit and eat it, and I would make two broken fish, and the meat would be small and prickly, so I really wouldn't eat. Jiayue sarcastically mocked Mu Chen.
"It's better to eat than to eat Warcraft, and good things are also made by people, and you won't be able to cook these ingredients if you give them to you, and it's not all wasted. Mu Chen fought back.
"You... If you say anything more about us wastelanders, I'll kill you. ”
The boss on the side didn't know the situation, and asked Qiluna in a cold sweat: "Patriarch, this... This is... Am I saying the wrong thing? ”
"No, no, they're usually like this, you don't have to be afraid, you don't blame you, it's nothing to do with you. Chunyue hurriedly explained. "You two don't quarrel, this big table of food can't stop your mouth. ”
"Distinguished guests continue to dine, I continue to introduce to you, the rest of the green vegetables are picked on the same day, with the cleanest and freshest leaves, cores, after all, all are high-protein and high-fat dishes, for fear of affecting your appetite, these two vegetables may play an appetizing and greasy role. The wine is paired with peach blossom mead, which is not high in alcohol and full of floral aromas, so you can take a sip before tasting another dish, providing an aromatic environment for your taste buds to avoid overlapping flavors between dishes and affecting the texture. The boss breathed a sigh of relief, and finally finished the introduction, he had never worked so hard to entertain guests.
"I don't drink, change me for a glass of watermelon juice. ”
"I'll drink it, you can just get him watermelon juice. Mu Chen was stopped by Chunyue on the way to hand the wine glass to the boss, and the glass in front of her was empty, just in time to take Mu Chen's wine.
"Boss, you just bring a barrel of mead, you don't need to refill it one by one. Mu Chen looked at the two sisters and snickered.
"Watermelon juice. ”
"Let's take a big bottle of watermelon juice, the Patriarch doesn't drink. Murphy continued with Ciluna's words.
"Okay, then wait a minute, I'll call someone to pick it up right away. "The owner immediately went out to arrange.
After a while, the two clerks held a large wooden barrel of wine and a whole bottle of watermelon juice on the table, opened the barrel and poured it into the bottle for them to drink.
"Okay boss, it's nothing for you, you can get busy. Mu Chen said.
"Okay, then I won't disturb your meal, and you can call me if you don't have anything. The boss turned and left.
There were only five of them left in the private room, and Mu Chen and Qi Luna were full at the same time as the boss introduced the dishes. Although Mo Cheng didn't put down the tableware, it took a long time to move. Only the two sisters have never stopped from the dishes, while listening to the boss's introduction while feasting, after seeing the whole barrel of mead, they no longer drink one bite at a time, but directly toast, keep refilling the wine, their faces are gradually flushed, their expressions are becoming more and more cheerful, laughing while eating, this is the first time they have gathered together The atmosphere is so pleasant, and the human feast is indispensable.
