159. Knife Cutting Ring

Hao Dong and they were so supportive, the boss was also happy, and when they packed them, he gave them half a catty of dough and a portion of slurry, and shouted for them to eat on the way:

"This way, I dare to say that it is in Gansu, and there is no such authentic stirring of the group!"

People with a good temper usually make friends easily, Hao Dong had a very good impression of this boss, and finally took someone's business card before getting into the car.

This is the main road in and out of Xinjiang, and there is an endless stream of vehicles coming and going. However, if you go all the way west from here, you will soon be separated at various forks in the road, and gradually the traffic will become a sparse one-way street.

But if you go east, the situation will be different, after all, if you come to Gansu, the population density is rising.

After the Xingxing Gorge Pass, although the roadside is still the loess desert Gobi, the lane is indeed no longer so empty. From time to time, there will be passing cars, and you can even see many cars with private license plates.

Those are all self-driving tourists, and some people are even taking pictures in the car, with long cannons mounted on the car windows, and they keep shooting along the road.

Because he planned to go to Dunhuang, Qi Jue planned to run to Yumen as soon as possible, striving to spend the night there at least.

The name of the place Yumen is also one of the famous places in history, and "the spring breeze does not pass the Yumen Pass" is a well-known sentence. However, Yumen City is still some distance from Yumen Pass, and it is relatively close to Jiayuguan.

Hao Dong and the others arrived in Yumen City, and if they wanted to see Dunhuang the next day, they had to turn back to the west a little more.

However, because the highway is direct, it is better to go directly to Yumen than to go around all kinds of inconvenient towns.

Although I haven't been able to see the famous Yumen Pass on this road, and Jiayu Pass hasn't had time to walk there, I can still see it along the road to the ruins of the Great Wall of the Han Dynasty.

However, after years of weathering and erosion, the ruins are only a little bit of broken walls piled with loess, which are just for tourists to hang on to the ancients in the wind and dust.

The development of Yumen City is not bad, although the conditions here are difficult, but the water resources are quite abundant, there are also strong wind power stations, it is the only place for the east and west, and the foundation for economic construction is also there.

What's more, the historical and cultural accumulation here is very rich, and it also played a key role in the revolutionary process of the birth of New China, when the Yumen Oilfield was the largest oilfield in China.

These precipitation has created the rich tourism and cultural resources of Yumen City. So it's also a very good place to develop in the whole Great West.

It is still far from the city, and there are already lush trees on the roadside. In the distance, there is a large area of artificially cultivated cash crops, green and golden, and obviously growing very thrivingly.

Now is the early summer when everything is flourishing, and it is even more difficult in those unattended fields, where large fields of red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, and white wildflowers are in full swing.

Hao Dong felt that it was probably the first time in his life that he had seen so many flowers of different colors bloom at the same time, and his eyes were a little insufficient for a while, and his mood couldn't help but rise.

He really didn't expect to see such a beautiful sight here.

Different from the empty and rough desert plateau, the flowers and trees here are actually a little exquisite, and in this whole environment where the whole is still full of loess, it is more and more rare.

Soon his attention was diverted, however, and scattered along the road were scattered with scattered houses, many of which had raised sheep.

It's about the time of year for sheep shearing, and the round sheep look a bit like goats after being sheared. However, there are no horns or beards, and the tail is also flat and round hanging behind him, so as not to make people mistaken.

In addition to the adult sheep, there are many young lambs in the flock. There are many colors of big sheep, and the colors of lambs are also varied, white, light coffee, dark brown, and all of them are very lively.

The hair was curly, and if you looked closely, you could see the light in the capillary. No matter how tender you look, it makes people itch involuntarily, and they can't wait to hug it.

There are also children walking around with lambs in their arms, Hao Dong can't get down in the car, and his eyes are about to burst into flames: obviously he doesn't seem to be a fluff control, but how can these little things be so cute!

As if sensing Hao Dong's condition, Qi Jue glanced in the rearview mirror, and the corners of his mouth curved again.

Because it was all the way to the east, the jet lag was gradually being chased over, and the dark time was also approaching the normal hour, and it was already dark when I arrived at Yumen.

The area of Yumen city is not large, Qi Jue originally only planned to find a hotel that looks cleaner to live in, but as soon as he drove into the iron road, he found that the front was very lively, and the crowd surrounded half the street.

Fortunately, the road here has a common point in the northwest, which is wide and empty, and it is difficult to block it. Qi Jue slowed down the car and drove over, and soon found that there was a noodle shop engaged in a knife and noodle ring competition.

If you want to say knife cut noodles, Shanxi must be the most famous, the owner of this shop is from Shanxi, he thinks that the knife cut noodles technology is a must here, especially combined with the local donkey meat technology here in Gansu, his sauce donkey meat marinade knife noodles have always been very popular with customers.

After making a name for himself, the boss is also a lively person, and he just planned to promote new products, so he asked Hao Dong and them to catch up with him to do activities in the store today.

The theme of the ring is that all visitors can challenge the shopkeeper's knife cutting skills, and compete with the boss to see whose knife cutting is more authentic. The winner can eat in the store for free for a week, and the boss will be reimbursed regardless of what he eats.

Although basically no one thinks that they can challenge the boss, it is still quite tempting to be able to eat for nothing. And the boss also promised that as long as you come to participate today, no matter whether you win or lose, you can get a tasting sauce noodle grill in advance.

This is the boss's own original pasta, the flour box is filled with an exclusive donkey meat filling, baked over an open flame and then grilled, soft but not rotten, crispy but not at all, the fragrance is very strong.

Many people are already very curious when the boss makes it, but unfortunately this thing has just been released and is not yet sold publicly, and only by participating in today's event can you get a taste in advance.

Some people had already eaten it before, and they all said that the taste was amazing, so when Hao Dong and they arrived, the popularity of the scene was climbing to a peak.

At this time, it was almost close to dinner, although Hao Dong and they were not very hungry after the noon dough base, but the aroma of the sauce noodle roast and knife-cut noodle marinade in the air was still very tempting.

There were a lot of people on the street, and Qi Jue couldn't drive fast, but let Hao Dong see the situation outside clearly from the car window.

The ring said that it was a test of noodle shaving technology, but it was really a simple noodle comparison.

The dough making of knife-cut noodles is very particular, the ratio of water surface and the time of kneading are required, and if there is a slight deficiency, it is easy to cut when sticking continuously, and then it is over.

This is a very test of the master's craftsmanship, not only to have enough strength and patience to pound the dough, but also to have enough experience in the details of various dough mixing.

Considering that ordinary people may not have the ability to make really good dough, the boss provided all the dough that had been made in his shop, and the participants only needed to cut it by hand.

And the shaved noodles must not be wasted just like that, so the amount of each person asked to cut is a certain amount, and then the store provides the braised soup and toppings, and they can cut and eat by themselves, and whether the taste is good or not depends on how they perform.

Naturally, the conditions are very attractive, so there are many people who try it. Not to mention the crowd of onlookers, even Hao Dong, who was passing by, was a little eager to try.

After all, a layman may not be able to see it, but he found at a glance that the dough of this master is in place, and the prepared dough cutting tools are also very qualified.

Of course, although a layman can sharpen it when he does this, the specific results vary from person to person. Some of the noodles became diced, and some could be more than half a centimeter thick, and it took a long time to cook them thoroughly.

But that didn't dampen everyone's enthusiasm at all, and everyone had a good time.

Seeing that the sky was darkening, the boss was probably planning to close the stall, and finally performed in person.

The so-called connoisseur knows if there is a shot as soon as he makes a move, a white and chubby dough is gently held in the boss's left hand, and he still gently picks up the arc-shaped sharpening knife with his right hand, sees the position of the noodle pot, and suddenly moves.

Immediately, everyone felt dazzled, and they only felt a cold light in front of them, and the white noodles flew into the pot one leaf after another.

It is said that Kuaishou's master can cut more than 200 knives in a minute when he makes knives and noodles, Hao Dong didn't point it, but he felt that this master's craftsmanship should be about the same.

Compared to the skills of the owners of the larger masters, the skills of the diners who had to gather on the edge of the pot to cut the noodles into the pot were simply miserable.

However, everyone was convinced, and no one felt how embarrassed they were, but they gathered there, watching the boss cut noodles and applauding again and again.

"Want to try it?"

Hao Dongzheng was distracted, and Qi Jue, who had been silent in the front row, suddenly opened his mouth. Hao Dong realized that their car didn't know when it had stopped, no wonder he could always see the situation over there!

Seeing Qi Jue ask, he was a little embarrassed, and his face was a little red. But his eyes were shining, and he answered honestly: "Yes!" ”

Qi Jue opened the car door for him: "Let's go, let's go together." ”

Hao Dong was surprised: "You also participated?" ”

Qi Jue touched his nose and seemed a little embarrassed: "That sauce noodle burnt smells very fragrant." ”

Hao Dong suddenly realized that there was probably sugar in the sauce noodle roast, and he could also smell a sweet smell in the smell, and Xiao Qi Ye's nose must have smelled it.

However, thinking that Xiao Qi Ye seemed to have been cultivated by him to become a real foodie, Hao Dong still felt a sense of guilt in his heart. Originally, it was a cold and cold little Qi Ye! Now it seems that the image has collapsed!

The owner of the store originally planned to close the stall after cutting this pot and selling it, although he didn't make any money today, but the advertising effect was obviously good, and it was definitely worth it. So he was in a good mood, and his subordinates were even faster.

Suddenly, someone appeared in front of him and offered to participate in the competition, he was just stunned, and then after finding that Hao Dong and the others had come all the way over, he generously handed over about half of the dough left in his hand:

"It's not easy for this little brother to come all the way over, so let's have some fun! Do you know how not to get it? Be careful, the knife edge is sharp. ”

There is still this part of Hao Dong's memory, so he will naturally get it. However, since he lost his memory, he has not officially operated it, and I don't know if body memory is useful for shaving noodles?
