Everyone is welcome to visit us, please remember the address of this site:,, so that you can read the latest chapters of "Maoshan Academy" at any time...

The headmaster glanced at the fish in front of us and asked mysteriously:

"Do you know how much this plate of steamed fish is worth?"

The fat man lowered his head, sniffed the plate of fish, and said with great admiration:

"Well, it's so fragrant, this plate of fish, at least not a few dozen yuan."

"Dozens of dollars? Little fat man, you can't even eat a tail for a few dozen dollars. This fish, at least for this price. ”

As he spoke, the principal held out a slap and five fingers.

"Five hundred? How many buns can you buy? ”

The fat man's eyes widened, and he hurriedly sniffed at the fish again.

I'm horrified, five hundred fish per fish, have we entered a black shop?

This obviously belongs to the stealer.

But our headmaster shook his head again, and then said loudly:

"Five thousand!"

This time, not only the fat man couldn't sit still, but even Yang Bin and Wen Jie almost stood up excitedly.

Although Xiaobai was still unhurried and didn't say anything, I still saw the corners of his mouth go up, and a trace of surprise flashed on his face.

Only Yin Mo and Wang Zhihe are as calm as ever, the rich second generation is the rich second generation, how can they compare with us.

Wang Zhihe said disdainfully:

"Tu Baozi, I haven't eaten anything so expensive, it's a fuss."

However, we didn't have time to deal with Wang Zhihe's ridicule, and we were still immersed in surprise.

This is not a black store, this is obviously a deadly store.

This is not a rip-off, this is the rhythm of eating guests without spitting out bones.

At this time, the principal introduced unhurriedly:

"This is a whitebait, delicate and transparent, with a color like silver, hence the name.

This fish has a characteristic, that is, the life span is extreme, basically not more than half a year.

It is precisely because of the short lifespan that it is rare, and because it is rare, it is expensive.

However, ordinary whitebait is not so expensive, but you see these fish I made, there is a row of black spots on the side of the body, these black spots are transmitted, so that the whole body of the fish is bright gray, this is the top grade of whitebait, plus the top secret spices I use, not to mention five thousand, take it out, even seven or eight thousand will be bought. ”

"Headmaster, are you okay with it? Seven or eight thousand fish, if you don't eat it in your stomach, my heart is not steady. ”

The fat man had been waiting impatiently.

Unexpectedly, the principal still shook his head:

"Don't worry, there's one last dish, right away, right away."

After saying that, he turned around and entered the restaurant again.

The fat man wept and stared intently at the fish in front of him, as if he was afraid that it would fly.

Although this fish was worth seven or eight thousand, it was still a fish after all, and after thinking about it for a while, I decided not to eat it.

I can't stand the fishy smell.

I still served the plate of fish in front of me to the fat man.

The fat man was obviously stunned, looked at me in disbelief, and spoke a little tremblingly:

"Comb ...... Comb, you ...... You ......"

"I don't eat fish, give it to you."

The fat man hugged me excitedly:

"Comb, you are righteous enough, from now on, I will be the only one who will look forward to you, and I will be a cow and a horse in the next life to repay your kindness."

"What about this life?"

"Forget it in this life, we're still good buddies."

"Five thousand yuan, for the sake of friends, I will give you a discount, three thousand!"

The fat man pushed me away:

"Comb, you're too dark, aren't you?"

"Don't be, right? Okay, I'll take it and feed my little black dog. ”

As I spoke, I pretended to serve the plate of fish.

The fat man "broken" my arm and protected the plate of fish with both hands:

"Don't don't, don't don't, what you send out, there is no reason to go back. Can't I exchange the buns, it's a big deal to give you the rest of the buns, give them to you, my Bao family's buns, that's an authentic dog ignorance, think back then, my ancestors were ......"

"Stop, stop, you think your buns are gold bars, you can change anything."

"Then you can't take it back."

"Eat, eat, it's better to be fatter."

The fat man saw that I was no longer behaving and began his gaze again.

At this time, I was actually a little curious.

Two dishes, one snake and one whitebait, both are unusual dishes.

So what kind of rare dish will the third dish be?

But when the headmaster brought the last dish to me, I couldn't help but be surprised.

Braised pork!

Even the fat man glanced at it with disdain, unable to raise any appetite.

It seems that with the previous two dishes, this braised pork is a dregs.

The headmaster also expected us to do this, and said slowly:

"Do you know what is the poorest animal in the world?"

"Pigs."

The fat man said first.

"That's right! Oh little fat man, I didn't expect you to be so smart, quick, tell me, how do you know? ”

"You bring a plate of braised pork and ask us what animal is the poorest, isn't that obvious, it's not what a pig is, can it be said that this braised pork can be beef and mutton."

"yes, I didn't think of that."

But although I have guessed the answer, I don't understand how the pig is the poorest animal in the world.

Don't worry about food or clothing, and even the pig's nest has to be built for them.

"Think about it, what do pigs have compared to other animals? It has no sharp claws, no sharp teeth, no ability to find food, and even the fur that other animals have, it doesn't have it, only a few loose hairs, what do you say it is not the poorest animal in the world?

But because it is poor, its value is low.

Because the value is low, the price is low.

That's why pork is something that every household can afford to eat and everyone can eat.

And it can be said that the pig is full of treasures, pig heart, pig liver, pork, pig ears, pig intestine, which is not a dish.

Pigs have impoverished themselves and enriched us human beings. ”

The principal's last sentence exclamated that I couldn't help but feel a sense of admiration for the pig's sacrificial spirit in my heart.

This pig is so great!

Sacrifice yourselves for the perfection of mankind!

But at random, I had a vague sense that something was wrong.

The principal's preaching is a bit too much.

It seems to be deliberately told to us, and deliberately not let us eat, and we have to wait until the last three dishes are served before letting us eat together.

What is the reason for this?

We're just having a meal, do you need to go on and on every dish?

Something's wrong, there's got to be something greasy in there.

The headmaster is definitely not as simple as cooking for us.

Let's look at these three dishes again.

Deep-fried snake meat, steamed whitebait, braised pork.

Snakes, whitebait, pigs.

Each of them has its own strengths and weaknesses.

Lonely, short-lived, poor.

What does this mean?

And this is what I just found out that there was nothing on the table of Liu Ke and Mr. Jiu Fengzhe, who were sitting on the other side.

The two of them stared closely at the three dishes on the table of the seven of us, their expressions nervous, their faces sweating, and our every move would attract the attention of the two of them.

Why didn't they have any food on the table?

Isn't it a dinner party?

More and more, I felt that something was wrong.

"Smack!" The sound of the floor slapping on the table interrupted my thoughts.

I saw the principal slap the table, pointed to the five plates in front of the fat man, and reprimanded:

"Bao Renzhi, who let you eat Shu Ziyang's dishes? A three-plate, that's all you can eat? ”

I didn't expect the principal to be furious over such a trivial matter, which made me feel that something was wrong.

"Headmaster, you misunderstood, I gave it to the fat man, and I don't care about the fat man. I was afraid of snakes since I was a child, so I didn't dare to eat snake meat, and I couldn't smell the fishy smell of fish, so I never ate fish, so I gave it to the fat man and let him help me eat it. ”

"Is this kind of thing for someone else to help with? Eat your own things, whether you like it or not, whether you can eat it or not, eat it or not! ”

I wondered, what's wrong with the principal, didn't I just give my food to the fat man to eat, as for being so angry and angry!

It's a loss of your identity, Principal.

Could it be that I didn't eat the principal's cooking, so that he misunderstood that I disliked his cooking skills, so that he could do this?

I'll go, if that's the case, the headmaster is too cautious.

What's more, I really don't eat these two dishes, and it's not because of his cooking skills.

But then Mr. Liu Ke came over, took the two plates of dishes that originally belonged to me on the fat man's table, put them on my table again, and said:

"It's your dish is your dish, how can you let someone else do it for you, you can find someone else to replace it, but this matter still depends on yourself!"

Although Mr. Liu Ke's words are very simple, the more I listen to them, the more confused I become?

Isn't it just two dishes, how to say it as if life and death are at stake!

But what happened next, not only did I feel wrong, but even the fat man noticed something was wrong.

The Headmaster stood up suddenly, took more than ten steps away from the table, knelt down on his knees without warning, and bowed respectfully three times in the southerly direction, and said:

"Ancestor bless!"

I'll go, such a big formation, have a meal, and the grandfather has moved out.

The fat man pounded my arm and asked:

"Comb, do we want to worship the ancestor too, with the blessing of the grandfather, this dish is delicious!"

"You're a foodie, you just remember to eat. Worship yourself. ”

The fat man was told by me, and he stopped talking.
