Chapter 101: The Banquet
Tang Ge pursed his lips and didn't say a word, but secretly said in his heart: "It's just right if you don't come, the master is too lazy to see you." Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Qingshan put up a smile on his face, stepped forward and hugged his fists, and said to the girl: "In this case, please also ask the girl to go back and greet your leader on behalf of the young wizard of my family, please take care of her body, if there is any lack of medicinal materials, just come to our tribe and say, if you can help, our tribe will do its best to help." ”
The girl nodded busily and said, "Okay, okay, I'll go back and tell the leader." ”
The girl was about to go out, when she heard Tang Ge say coldly: "Come on, since the Shixiang tribe can't come, let's withdraw the case." When the girl heard this, she fell under her feet, almost slipped and fell to the ground, and hurriedly hid her face and fled.
Qingshan suddenly turned around, and nodded Tang Ge without a trace, which means: Boy, you wait for me. Tang Ge also raised his eyebrows disdainfully, clearly saying: I did it on purpose, what can you do with me? Then he triumphantly turned back to his seat and sat down.
Qingshan gritted his teeth, then turned around and said, "Today, our young wizard will hold a banquet on behalf of the fat witch, as a way to thank you for taking care of us over the years." After saying that, he spread it out with one hand, pointed to Tang Ge, and continued: "Let me introduce to you again, this is our young wizard who is a genius of Banpo Dolphin, Tang Ge!" ”
Tang Ge got up and arched his hand, and said loudly: "In the next generation of fat witches, thank you for the favor of the big chiefs." Suddenly there was a mess of bows below, some holding the wrong fist, some with their fingers crossed, and even those with their fists stretched out to the sky. Speaking of which, the chiefs made a lot of jokes since they entered the tent.
Qingshan continued to say in a loud voice: "Everyone is already seated, so let's start the table." With that, he waved his sleeves, turned around and left, there was nothing to do with him here.
"Open the table~~~!" With a melodious singing and cheering, some people immediately entered the tent like water.
No more, no less than fourteen people came in, each carrying a tray and bringing it to the side of each case. On the tray there is a pair of chopsticks, a chopstick pillow, a bone plate, a soup bowl, a small spoon in the soup bowl, a basin with chrysanthemum water, and a bone knife and bone fork, the most dazzling is a rhino horn cup.
These rhino horn cups were collected by Tang Ge with great effort. I've only heard of it in my previous life, where have I seen this thing, and if I have the conditions in this life, I naturally have to search for it.
These rhino horn cups are carefully carved by skilled craftsmen, wide at the top and small at the bottom, with exquisite shapes, and the cups are carved with patterns of birds and animals or mountains and rivers, and none of the fourteen cups is repeated.
Each of these chiefs had a full-time waiter by his side, and they all stepped forward at this moment and neatly laid out the cutlery on the tray on the dining table. These waiters not only have to serve the food, but also pay attention to the greetings of the chiefs at all times, and do not dare to slack off at all. The girl who served Tang Ge was called Sanya, and she was the most leisurely in this group of waiters, and there was almost nothing else to do except serve Tang Ge.
Kuroko had already gone to his mind at this time. At first, he was a little worried, but as the chiefs got more and more, he was completely relieved. At this moment, in the entire wasteland, the tribal chiefs who are called out are here, and with this lineup, he doesn't dare to give Tang Ge a hundred guts. Otherwise, if these people join forces, they can crush the Banpo dolphin into slag in minutes.
Now that he is relaxed, Kuroko's temper is back. His bull-headed tribe and Banpo dolphin have been hostile to each other for not a day or two, don't look at the banquet in the honor of the tribe at this time, he can't help but find faults, diaphragm should be Tang Ge.
Heizi picked up the rhino horn cup in front of him, dried it carefully, and then tapped the basin containing chrysanthemum water in front of him with the rhino horn cup and said, "I said that the little witch doll, didn't you say that the banquet was opened, did you just give us these?" ”
Tang Ge smiled while cleaning his hands in the basin: "Naturally, I won't disappoint the big chief." ”
The chiefs all looked at Tang Ge with blank eyes. Seeing Tang Ge washing his hands in the basin, he couldn't help but secretly rejoice, and said that he thought it was soup! Thankfully, I didn't drink it.
After the chiefs had washed their hands, the waiter handed them a snow-white burlap to wipe their hands, and when they had finished wiping their hands, the burlap and the washbasin were removed.
As soon as the basin was removed, a group of people came in the tent, still a tray per person, and there were four small plates on the tray, including a plate of pickled soybeans, a plate of leek flowers, a plate of sour radish, and a plate of peanuts. The waiter placed four plates on the four feet of the dining table, which was a set table dish and an appetizer.
Tang Ge picked up the chopsticks, took a fragrant and glutinous pickled soybean and threw it into his mouth, and chewed it slowly. When the tribal chiefs saw this, they looked at each other one by one. They don't even know how to make chopsticks, they haven't even seen them before.
The dozen or so young men and women who were in charge of the service hurriedly stepped forward and explained the role of various tableware in detail, and these people suddenly realized. It turns out that there are not so many rules for this banquet, so it doesn't matter if you don't know how to use chopsticks, and it doesn't matter if you don't want to tear the knife and fork with your hand.
In fact, at the dinner, Tang Ge could make these chiefs look foreign in more places, but he didn't do anything. First, because at this time, it is a guest invited by the honor of the tribe, so it is necessary to show the bearing of a big tribe, not to mention making people feel at home, at least not to deliberately make things difficult. The second is that he disdains to use these small means. If we have the ability, let's put it on the surface, and it's okay to stab the knife in secret, but it's boring to make a small stumbling block in secret, so that people don't look foreign, but they can't do any good.
As soon as the explanation was finished, another group of clansmen lined up to come in, and this time it was time to start serving.
This time, it was two meats, two vegetarian dishes, and four cold dishes, plus a jar of wine. The four dishes are a salt-baked chicken, a plate of corned beef, a blanched seasonal vegetables, and a mixed fungus. These things look simple, but they have a lot of content. According to Tang Ge, the things at this dinner must be all that these chiefs have never eaten or seen. Even if it is the same ingredient, it must come up with a unique method, so that these guests can go out to blow the cowhide for a year after eating a meal, so as to show the ability of the Banpo dolphin. This view was well received, unanimously agreed by the clansmen, and there was an endless stream of people who went to the cook's "food trial......
As for the wine, it is a mixed mead, which is specially divided into small jars and served before being served. To say that this wine is one of the highlights of tonight, this thing was consumed internally in the past, and outsiders almost didn't know about it, but now the opportunity is rare, Tang Ge wants to take advantage of the east wind of the banquet to promote the tribe's wine. Besides, is a banquet without wine still a banquet? You must know that as the old saying goes, no banquet is made without wine.
The waiter first put four dishes on the table, and then carefully poured wine into the rhino horn cup. After the waiter retired, Tang Ge raised his glass and said loudly: "Tang Ge is here again to thank all the chiefs for their support, please drink this cup to the fullest." With that, he raised his glass and drank it all.
When the chiefs saw this, they also raised their cups and drank them all.
Tang Ge didn't want the scene of the first drinking in the tribe to make trouble at this wine banquet, so this mead was specially prepared, not only added more honey to it, but also soaked in osmanthus, kudzu, wolfberry, red dates, etc., it tasted sweet and delicious, although the wine taste was still slightly choking, but it was not so obvious. And this wine is only a small jar per person, which can make people dizzy, but not drunk, and after drinking, they still want it.
A dry person waits for a glass of wine to eat, the mouth is sweet, the stomach is warm, and it is also comfortable.
Yihezi took a sip of wine, was stunned for a moment, and asked Tang Ge, "Little doll, what did you give us to drink?" ”
Tang Ge smiled slightly and said, "Naturally, it's a good thing. This thing is not easy to come by, it is the essence of my picking flowers and fruits, the essence of heaven and earth, the wind and frost of the sun and the moon, and it is the secret of my Banpo dolphin tribe. This thing is called Forget Worries, also called Cleansing Troubles. Another simple name is 'wine'. As long as you drink this substance, you can relieve your worries and help you get rid of all your worries. Speaking of this, Tang Ge moved his tongue that was already a little unstraight, and secretly thought: "It's really not easy to be a pretending criminal." Then he raised his cup and said in a loud voice: "Princes, please drink another glass!" ”
The chiefs toasted again.
After the waiter poured the third glass of wine, Tang Ge raised his glass again and said, "Tang Ge is young and not strong enough to drink. So I can't drink more, I can only accompany you to drink three cups, and please Haihan. Ladies and gentlemen, please! "Then I drank it all again.
The chiefs toasted again.
At this time, some people have already realized the beauty of wine, and they have exchanged opinions one after another. The waiters took advantage of the time to pour wine and cloth dishes, and from time to time explained a sentence or two to these chiefs.
I didn't eat two bites of the dish, I didn't say a word, and another dish came up.
This time, the dish on the tray is a dish of fish tart, that is, sashimi, for this dish Tang Ge has made a lot of effort, not to mention the hard work of the tribesmen to find a way to catch black fish in the aquatic grass nest, just looking for mustard It takes a lot of effort.
Fish trevley looks simple, but it's not easy to make it well. You know, sashimi is not rare, and everyone has eaten this dish. But if you want to make people stunning, it's hard.
This fish tart, is made of black fish meat as the main ingredient, not sliced, but cut like noodles, slender and long, the mustard seeds are ground into foam, plus a little ginger juice and orange juice to remove the fish, but also with some beans, vegetable grains as a color, the taste is adjusted and put into a fish-shaped plate, surrounded by vegetable leaves and flowers as decoration, fish head and tail placed at both ends of the plate. Not to mention eating this dish, just looking at it is pleasing to the eye.
The chieftain was quite shocked, to say that they were also the top group of people in the wasteland, they thought they had seen a lot of the world, but they had never seen such a beautiful food to make a meal. One by one, they looked at the dishes in front of them with straight eyebrows, if it weren't for the waiter to arrange the dishes for them, it is estimated that many people would be reluctant to eat.
You must know that people at this time generally do not eat irritating food, for fear of poisoning. Therefore, as soon as the fragrant and tender fish was eaten, the chiefs' eyes immediately widened, and their expressions were quite wonderful. When the fish belly is down, I only feel that my nose is clear, and my saliva is coming out, and even my appetite seems to be much better.
