Back in the room, after Li Qi put the silver away, he didn't wash his face or take off his shoes, so he climbed into bed and meditated hard about how he should use the hundred taels, but after thinking about it, he put his mind on the Drunken Immortal Residence again, and said bitterly: "Drunken Immortal Residence, Drunken Immortal Residence, if you fall into the hands of Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu will have to make you famous all over the world, what Jade Xuan, what Fan Lou, give me a side stand." ”
Having said that, if Li Qi hadn't crossed at the beginning, it is estimated that he would have been the top decision-maker of the super five-star hotel by now, so after thinking about it, he still felt that the restaurant was the most suitable for him, and he didn't know what else he could do.
Although he is a top student from Tsinghua University, he studied finance in college, and there is not even a listed company here.
And the current situation of Drunken Immortal Residence just gave him such an opportunity, but he doesn't have enough capital now, and this is not a small amount, if you want to make so much money in a short period of time, how easy is it! I thought about it for a while, and my feelings were very low, and I fell asleep unconsciously while lying on the bed.
I don't know how long it took, but suddenly there was a knock at the door.
"Who?"
Li Qi rubbed his eyes, sat up and stretched.
Wu Xiaoliu's voice came from outside the door, "Brother Li, it's me, Sixth Son, it turns out that you are in the house." ”
Little Liuzi? Li Qi glanced out of the window, and saw that it was already dark, and he was so drowsy that he slept at such an hour, got up and opened the door, and saw Wu Xiaoliu standing at the door with a smile on his face, and said curiously: "Sixth son, do you have anything to do with me?" ”
Wu Xiaoliu smiled and said, "Brother Li, I'm here to ask you to eat." ”
Li Qi didn't feel hungry at first, but when he heard Wu Xiaoliu say this, he felt a little hungry, but when he thought of Master Zhou's cooking skills, his stomach twitched a few times in a row, and he asked in a low voice, "Is Master Zhou here?" ”
Wu Xiaoliu grinned and said, "If Master Zhou is here, then how dare I call you, isn't this intentionally harming you." You can rest assured, Master Zhou has already moved his things back to live in the morning. ”
Now that Mrs. Qin has decided to sell the store, Master Zhou can be regarded as a successful retirement, and he can finally go home to recuperate.
Hey! I didn't expect this kid to be quite righteous.
Li Qi snorted and said curiously: "By the way, since Master Zhou is not here, who is cooking?" Could it be Uncle Wu, no, Uncle Wu clearly said last night that he would go back to live in the house in the past few days and would not come back. ”
Wu Xiaoliu rubbed his hands and said shyly: "Don't hide it from Brother Li, it was the younger brother who did it." ”
"You did it?" Li Qi was slightly stunned, and then laughed: "I didn't expect you to cook." "But I'm muttering in my heart, this guy won't cook the same food as Master Zhou, right?
Wu Xiaoliu said with a smile: "I used to learn a few tricks from Master Zhou. ”
Sweat! Lao Tzu knew that this was the case.
Li Qi rolled his eyes, wanting to cry without tears!
But anyway, this is Wu Xiaoliu's kindness after all, and Li Qi is not easy to refuse, with a worried heart, he followed Wu Xiaoliu to his room, only to see a small table on the bed, and a bowl of pickled fish on the table.
"Just a bowl of food?" Richie wondered, this guy also deducted a little, called me to dinner, and sent me away with a pickled fish.
"Brother Li, don't underestimate this dish, it took me a month to make it." Wu Xiaoliu saw that Boss Li Qi was unhappy, and hurriedly explained.
Nani? It takes only a month to make such a dish, which --- is too inefficient, right? Li Qi glanced at Wu Xiaoliu suspiciously, but seeing his confident appearance, he sat down suspiciously.
Wu Xiaoliu hurriedly handed the chopsticks to Li Qi, and greeted expectantly: "Brother Li, you can taste it." ”
Seeing his nervous and excited appearance, Li Qi took the chopsticks, but he was not in a hurry to move the chopsticks, he smiled, and said, "Liuzi, you specially called me here today, not just to eat, you specially asked me to try the dishes, right?" ”
Wu Xiaoliu lowered his head and blushed and said, "Brother Li, you can see it." ”
"Nonsense, you asked me to come to eat, but I don't even have a bowl of rice, you don't expect this fish to fill my belly." Li Qi glanced at Wu Xiaoliu and scolded with a smile.
Wu Xiaoliu stuck out his tongue and said with a sneer: "Brother Li, you taste this fish first, and I'll help you eat later." ”
Li Qi looked at his impatient appearance, and did not deliberately embarrass him anymore, picked up a small pinch of fish and put it in his mouth, chewed it a few times, and suddenly frowned slightly.
This frightened Wu Xiaoliu, and asked in a trembling voice: "Li--Brother Li, is this fish not to your taste?" ”
Li Qi glanced at Wu Xiaoliu, saw that he was sweating nervously, suddenly smiled, nodded and said: "Not bad, it's delicious, I didn't expect you to have this craft, it's rare, it's rare." ”
"Really--- really, Brother Li, you didn't lie to me, did you?" Wu Xiaoliu's eyes widened and he exclaimed in surprise.
Li Qi nodded and said with a smile: "I don't have that much spare time, the taste of this fish is indeed very good, but the heat is a little worse, but at such a young age, it is not easy to make it like this, but --- is just the method of this fish--- I'm afraid you didn't come up with it yourself." ”
Wu Xiaoliu said with admiration on his face: "Brother Li, you are so powerful, you can taste this." ”
Li Qi said angrily: "Nonsense, if you can think of it, then you can become a chef a long time ago." ”
Wu Xiaoliu sneered and said: "I won't tell you, the name of this dish is 'Huadiao Drunk', which used to be the signature dish of our Drunken Immortal Residence, hehe, I also learned it from Master Zhou." ”
"Flower carving drunk?"
Li Qi nodded and said, "Well, this name is quite nice." ”
"Listen to that," Wu Xiaoliu smirked and asked, "By the way, Brother Li, can you taste what ingredients are in this fish?" ”
Li Qi raised his eyebrows and said, "Are you testing me?" ”
Wu Xiaoliu smiled: "Don't dare, don't dare." ”
As far as Wu Xiaoliu's thoughts, how could Li Qi not see it, smiled slightly, picked up the chopsticks again, put a small pinch in his mouth, chewed it carefully, and said: "Ginger, bay leaves, grass fruits, chives, fresh mushrooms," Speaking of this, Li Qi picked up a small piece of fish meat and tasted it, and continued: "Black fungus, star anise, cinnamon, river shrimp, how about it?" I'm not wrong, am I? ”
Wu Xiaoliu opened his mouth wide and said in surprise: "You --- you know so much?" ”
"For a chef, the sense of taste is crucial, because you first have to learn to taste the food, and if you are not sure how your food tastes, then how dare you serve it to your guests." ”
"Yes, yes, yes." Wu Xiaoliu nodded hurriedly, and suddenly smiled again: "But Brother Li, you still have two ingredients that you haven't tasted." ”
Li Qi frowned and said, "I know." ”
"You know?" Wu Xiaoliu exclaimed.
Li Qi said "um" and said lightly: "It's the aroma of wine and bamboo, but the aroma of this wine is very strong and pure, and it doesn't seem to be added, but like the fish itself." ”
"Hehe, Brother Li, I won't tell you, this is the subtlety of this 'Huadiao drunk', and it's no wonder you can't taste it." Wu Xiaoliu smiled proudly.
"Really?"
Li Qi saw Wu Xiaoliu's appearance on his face, smiled slightly, and said: "If I guessed correctly, you should first put this fish in Huadiao wine for a period of time, and then start to marinate, and it is marinated in a fresh bamboo tube, so that you can use the fragrance of bamboo to cover up the fishy smell of the fish itself." ”
After Li Qi finished saying this, Wu Xiaoliu had become stunned, and after a long while, he came to his senses and hurriedly asked, "Brother Li, where did you know your ---?" Have you made this dish before? ”
Li Qi laughed and said, "You sued me." ”
"Me?" Wu Xiaoliu pointed to his nose and said in surprise.
Li Qi nodded and said: "Yes, you said earlier that it took you a month to prepare this dish, but judging from the taste of this fish, it is not like marinating for a month, so I thought that before you pickled, you should put this fish in wine for a period of time, so that the fish meat will contain a strong aroma of wine." ”
At this time, Wu Xiaoliu had nothing to say, and all that was left was his worship of Li Qi. To paraphrase the old saying, his worship of Li Qi at this time is like a surging river, and like the Yellow River flooding, out of control.
"Brother Li, you are such a god!" Wu Xiaoliu exclaimed.
Li Qi smiled faintly: "It's just a coincidence." ”
"Brother Li, you are too modest, this is not a coincidence, if anyone tastes it, they can guess this 'Huadiao drunk' method, then Cai Yuanwai of Jade Xuan will not be willing to spend a thousand yuan to buy this secret recipe of 'Huadiao drunk'." Wu Xiaoliu stretched out a finger and said.
With a "snap", the chopsticks in Li Qi's hand fell on the table.
