Chapter 51: Hot Pot Comes Out (1)

There is no entertainment here, so after eating, we packed up our things, chatted in the courtyard for a while, and then went back to our rooms to sleep.

The starry sky in the dark night, dotted with stars, accompanied by the sound of a leisurely watch in the distance, Xiang Tianqi fell asleep.

The next day, it was still Xiang Tianqi who got up last, but every time he was stuck at the point of eating, or they all came according to Xiang Tianqi's time, so it would be more precise.

But with the lessons of yesterday, no one will knock on the door today.

"Xiaoqi, I made an appointment with Shopkeeper Zhang today to try the dishes, is the store still open at noon? ”

Today is the day when Xiang Tianqi made an appointment with Shopkeeper Zhang to try new dishes, unlike in the past, there are still people from the imperial capital headquarters coming over today, so He Qiang is a little worried.

"It's fine, just like usual. Just go with the eldest brother and Hesheng with me, and it is estimated that the bookkeeper on Zhang's side should be about the same. The others are at the store at noon, anyway, there are not many people in the past two days, and a few of them are also busy. ”

Xiang Tianqi was eating while arranging today's affairs.

He Qiang nodded and didn't speak.

"Cuiying made breakfast today?" Swallowing the steamed bun in his mouth, Xiang Tianqi raised his head, glanced at the food, and continued to eat with his head bowed after speaking.

Everyone looked at each other, not knowing how to answer.

"From now on, according to what I said before, the order of the few of you will be sorted out by yourself, take a ledger and make a table, paste it at the door of the kitchen, and record the daily votes on it, and count it at the end of the month."

"Of course, for the sake of fairness, Cuiying and her second sister-in-law will not participate in the competition in the first two months, and others can come to me if they have questions, and in two months, a few of you will be evaluated."

Originally, I thought that Xiang Tianqi was just saying it casually, so everyone, especially the big men, didn't take it seriously, how could they have thought that it would be true!

Seeing Xiang Tianqi's non-negotiable expression, several men also stopped thinking about it, and had to think about how to pass the test.

After eating, Xiang Tianqi took He Qiang and He Sheng to Zhenwei Restaurant, while the others were preparing the ingredients for lunch in Hutchison.

Before they reached Zhenwei, they saw Brother Zhao looking at the place where they came from like a wangfu stone at the door.

After seeing Xiang Tianqi and his party, he immediately walked over quickly.

"Oh, the shopkeeper has been waiting inside for a long time, and he has asked me several times, go quickly with the girl."

Brother Zhao said as he took Xiang Tianqi and the others inside, and his eagerness seemed as if someone was driving him with a whip behind him.

Xiang Tianqi was speechless and funny. Heqiang and Hesheng are not strange. That time, it was a shopkeeper who could urge people to die, and Xiang Tianqi was still unhurried.

"Hey, I said Brother Zhao, I'm not afraid of being late for a good meal, and besides, I can't run, Uncle Zhang is in a hurry every time."

"Oh, and the girl, you don't know, there are people here today, but it's not just the shopkeeper, so everyone has no bottom in their hearts, and they have to be careful to do anything." Brother Zhao said and pointed with his index finger.

Xiang Tianqi understood. Although she doesn't care about the people in the imperial capital headquarters, and she is not afraid of their majesty and the thoughts of any masters, but it is different for natives such as Shopkeeper Zhang.

Xiang Tianqi stopped talking and followed Zhao Xiaoge to the second floor.

"Come in."

Brother Zhao went to the Tianzi room on the second floor, knocked on the door, and the voice of the shopkeeper came from inside.

"It seems that this person from the imperial capital is not ordinary, he usually pushes the door directly and enters, and he has to report it today." I don't know how this person touches. Xiang Tianqi thought to himself, thinking about various possible situations.

When I stepped in, I saw the shopkeeper sitting in the lower hand, and sitting on the right seat was a man in his forties, with a slightly bulging belly and a slight fortune, with a handsome face, but his face was full of seriousness and did not smile, which greatly reduced the color.

After Brother Zhao pushed open the door and introduced Xiang Tianqi and the three of them, he retreated, leaving only Xiang Tianqi and his party in the house, shopkeeper Zhang and others.

"Let me introduce it, Steward Hu, this is what I said before and the girl, Xiaoqi This is the Steward Hu from the imperial capital, this time I came here to do business, it happened to be the day when the new dish was coming out, and the Steward Hu wanted to take the new dish with him when he wanted to leave, so I asked you to come over today."

When the two met for the first time, the shopkeeper Zhang introduced it, and by the way, he talked about today's purpose.

The hand-picked Hu steward still has the same posture as just now, and his expression has not changed, obviously thinking that such a small person is not worthy of his expression.

Xiang Tianqi has seen a lot of people like him in modern times, and he also understands that his current self has no weight in the eyes of others, and it is normal for others not to take it seriously, if it is because of this anger, it will be too worthless.

But one day she will let him, even everyone, know the weight of Xiang Tianqi's three words.

"I know Uncle Zhang, the recipe is ready, are the things I asked you to prepare that day ready?"

Xiang Tianqi asked what he was most concerned about.

"Alright, alright, after you finished that day, I kept asking people to find a blacksmith to build the kind of stove you mentioned, and the things are now in the backyard."

"That's good, then Uncle Zhang, you just wait here, and the dishes will be fine for a while."

After saying that, Xiang Tianqi went out, and He Qiang and He Sheng followed behind and went out together.

"Xiaoqi, this ......" and Qiang's face was full of worry.

Just now, he could see clearly behind him, as a local, he had a deep-rooted concept of this upper and lower class, and unlike Xiang Tianqi, he felt a strong sense of oppression.

So now I can't help but be a little worried. After all, these upper-class people are not easy to serve.

"Don't worry, we'll just cook our food and nothing else. It has nothing to do with us. Relax. ”

Xiang Tianqi said to the two as he walked.

Going downstairs, through the hall, turning the counter corridor, and a few steps to the kitchen. It was noon, and the people in the kitchen were busy, shouting, stir-frying, and the clanging sound of chopping vegetables from the chopping board came and went.

Everyone was busy with their own affairs, coming and going, and no one noticed that Xiang Tianqi and others came to the kitchen for a while.

"And the eldest brother and Hesheng, you can find some vegetables, oh, green vegetables are fine, and there is also Baishuitian, if you have it, you can also get a little, see if there is any mutton, if there is, also cut some, and the eldest brother has made mutton before, and you can get it this time." I'm going to adjust the bottom of the pot. ”

The three of them assigned the tasks and began to work on their own business.

The three of them kept shuttling in the kitchen, slowly attracting everyone's attention.

"Hey, this and the girl are here again, I don't know what kind of dish it is this time."

"Who knows, but it's certainly not close."

"Aren't you talking nonsense, didn't we sell the most popular dishes with the girl that time."

"Hey, look, what does she put in the pot? Chili peppers, soybean paste, what does this taste like? ”

"Hey, what did she just put in again?"

"I don't know, I didn't see it clearly, it seems to be something I brought with me, taken out of my arms."

Xiang Tianqi shuttled back and forth in front of the stove, looking for what he needed, put it in the bottom of the pot the same, and finally took out the highlight of this time from his arms-sesame pepper and put it in the pot.

After a while, the unique smell of hot pot permeated the entire kitchen.

"Hey, it smells so good, what does it smell like? I've never smelled of it. ”

"It's very fragrant, if you smell it, then it's not the girl who is cooking now, what do you think."

The people in the kitchen are no longer cooking at the moment, and they don't care if they are summoned by the people outside, they all stop what they are doing, watching Xiang Tianqi cook, and whispering while watching.

Xiang Tianqi on the stove was concentrating on adjusting the bottom of her spicy pot, originally she was going to mix two, spicy and clear soup, in order to take care of the taste of the caremaker. But now she wasn't going to do that.

Although she can understand the rules of survival here, it doesn't mean that she can be casual after being despised or even ignored, being rational is one thing, and being emotionally acceptable is another.

So she didn't plan to make clear soup, even if he was lucky enough to eat spicy food, if he couldn't eat it...... Hehe, then don't blame Xiang Tianqi for being unkind.

Because what she did this time was super spicy! Anyway, Uncle Zhang, Master Qi and her can eat it, what about that careless person, he deserves it!

After boiling for a while, after the flavor is stronger, Heqiang and Hesheng are also ready.

Xiang Tianqi put the bottom of the pot into a small pot, called Brother Zhao, asked him to go to the backyard to bring the stove, and told him how to use it, and then the group came out of the kitchen with new dishes.

To get to the second floor, you have to go through the lobby on the first floor. When Xiang Tianqi appeared with the bottom of the pot, although he covered the bottom of the pot with something, there was still a trace of smell wafting out.

The already novel flavor is mixed with numb and spicy, which instantly stimulates everyone's nasal cavity and palate.

The people in the hall stared at Xiang Tianqi intently...... The pot in his hand, guessing what's inside.

Among them, there are people who have seen Xiang Tianqi cook before, and when they think of these new dishes, they can guess a rough idea.

"Little girl, what are you doing with a new dish this time, this tastes so delicious!" A bearded uncle said.

"This uncle, this is a new dish that is treasured, and it has not been sold to the public for the time being, but soon you will all be able to eat it, remember to bring your friends over when the time comes, and ensure that there is only one in the entire Heping Town."

Xiang Tianqi revealed it slightly, and by the way, he also advertised to attract some customers to Zhenwei. After saying that, he stepped up to the second floor.

When they disappeared at the corner of the stairs, the hall on the first floor exploded, some were curious, some asked about the time when the new dishes were produced, and some inquired about Xiang Tianqi, and for a while the little two on the first floor were busy.

Saying that, Xiang Tianqi and the others, no matter how lively they were behind them, walked straight to the Tianzi room.

When he arrived at the door, a person who looked like an attendant that Xiang Tianqi didn't know pushed open the door.

Master Qi has arrived in the house, and he is chatting happily with Shopkeeper Zhang and Steward Hu.

Hearing the voice, the three stopped chatting and looked at the door.

"Xiaoqi, what did you do this time, this taste is a little spicy, but it's not just spicy, huh...... It smells weird, but it's quite fragrant. You girl, it's always unexpected. ”

Steward Hu didn't speak, and Master Qi was not suitable, so Shopkeeper Zhang spoke first, and joked about Xiang Tianqi with a smile.

(Oops, last night, I DIY 5 lipsticks, the first time I did it, so it took a long time, and it was 11 o'clock when I finished it!! Non-stop codeword...... But because I had to code words and conceive at the same time, I didn't catch up in the end, woo woo woo...... However, not in the future, I will finish the article first. )
