Volume 3: Zhongzhou Fengyun Chapter 73: Drunkard Teahouse
When they arrived in Guancheng, their first destination was Drunken Man Mountain.
Yang Ming has a letter of introduction from Zuo Lao in his hand, and it is definitely the most suitable to come to Drunken Weng Mountain.
Wan Jianye Wan shopkeeper of Zhongzhou Drunken Weng Mountain is said to be very delicate in the first hand of Beiqian refreshments, and it can have a great reputation in the realm of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon in Yunjing Guancheng.
The so-called drunken Weng Mountain is the name of the shop proposed by Zuo Gongquan, the king of Beigan fried, for this Wan Jianye.
What is a drunkard?
Indulge in the fragrance of books and warm jade pavilions, and the drunken words of a thousand cups are wasted.
Drunk like dreaming of cloud butterflies, waving a pen to draw green raviol.
The drunkard's intention is not in the wine, but in the landscape, the beauty, and the book.
The storefront of this drunken man mountain is also very magnificent, and the four-storey storefront reveals a touch of vigor and heroism like a landscape painting.
The northern dry refreshment is completely different from the southern refreshment, the southern morning tea is about a leisure, a pot of tea, a few plates of dim sum, you can drink it directly until noon.
The Beigan refreshments are crisp and neat, and what he pays attention to is a meat soup and three crispy flavors.
A meat soup is that one of the refreshments must be a meat dish, and the old rule of the Beigan Teahouse is that if there is no meat dish on the tea table, it will look very down.
The three crispy flavors are that in addition to the meat dish, there must be three crispy dim sum, if there is no crispy flavor, no matter how good the tea is, it is a little more flavorful water.
To say that the cooking of this refreshment is much more difficult, Yang Ming only ate the refreshments cooked by Zuo Gong himself twice when he was in Songhe Tower.
As a refreshment, tea is the most important thing, and refreshments cannot dominate the guests.
Clear tea must be paired with light and moist refreshments, and strong tea must be paired with refreshments that turn strong into fine refreshments.
In the entire Yongzhou Mansion, the famous teahouses have their own unique set of tea lists, and what tea and what snacks are all matched for a long time.
Of course, people who like to drink tea and eat snacks are usually older people, and a little girl of Hu Yuelinruo's age is not very interested in this refreshment.
"Drunkard Mountain has arrived! Let's go, get out of the car!"
Yang Ming jumped out of the car first and found that the car in front of him was gone.
"Hey, Mo Lin, where did they go?"
"Oh, Master said that we have to go to the Cloud Palace to report to the Zong family first, and then go to the Supervision Department to report on our work, so let's wait in Drunkard Mountain first. ”
Mo Lin pulled the carriage, and as soon as he came to the gate of the drunkard mountain, an elegantly dressed servant led him to settle the carriage and horses.
"Then let's go and meet this shopkeeper first!"
With that, Yang Ming walked into the lobby of Drunken Weng Mountain and found that everyone was not drinking tea and listening to books, but watching the movement upstairs.
This made Yang Ming a little puzzled, and hurriedly pulled a young man and asked:
"Hey, little brother, what's going on here?"
"Yo, this brother is from out of town, don't you know, this shopkeeper has offended people!"
After listening to the young brother's words, Yang Ming looked puzzled, and the young brother pointed to the stairs and said.
"This shopkeeper of 10,000 years ago competed with the son of the Xiao family for a pair of ink treasures, and offended the son of the Xiao family, no, he brought a group of people to find fault!"
"That's worth it! Isn't there anyone who can take care of this son?"
Hu Yue frowned when she heard this, and the young man hurriedly waved his hand when he saw that the little girl was so wanton.
"Little girl, you are not afraid of heaven and earth, don't you know what status this Xiao family has in Yunjing?"
Yang Ming patted the young man on the shoulder and motioned for him to introduce himself to the so-called Xiao family.
"This old man of the Xiao family, Xiao Baishan, is a big official, the deputy director of the Supervision Department of Zhongshu Province!"
Yang Ming thought about it, it seemed that Lao Lu was the Western Regions Qincha of the Supervision Department of Zhongshu Province, and the young man saw that this head seemed to be unable to suppress Yang Ming, and said:
"Xiao Baishan's eldest son, but the famous Ministry of Works, Xiao Borui, do you know?"
Yang Ming shook his head, how could he know about this thing.
This young man understands that this brother is really a poor relative in the countryside and doesn't know anything when he enters the city.
"Hey, no matter what you say, I have to see the shopkeeper, I'm in a hurry!"
With that, Yang Ming went upstairs directly through the crowd.
"Who is this, such a bold person, he actually dares to go upstairs at this time!"
"I don't know if the son of the Xiao family is fighting with the shopkeeper Wan, isn't it unpleasant to go up now!"
In the midst of the discussions, Yang Ming seemed to take the discussions seriously and went directly to the second floor.
As soon as I walked up the stairs on the second floor, I heard the sound of plates being smashed.
"Shopkeeper Wan, are you embarrassed to open a store in this official city at this level?"
"Just this refreshment, I'll just say three words, don't go into the stream!"
"Just this tea, I only have three words, not fresh!"
As soon as Yang Ming went upstairs, he saw a young man with his chin held high, looking arrogant.
Standing across from him was a middle-aged man with a straight back, who looked to be in his forties.
This middle-aged man should be Wan Jianye Wan's shopkeeper, and his eyes flashed with anger.
"Huangkou Xiaoer, how dare you be so arrogant, I'm afraid it's not that the old man of the Xiao family didn't teach you how to speak!"
"Hey, shopkeeper Wan, let's open a store and do business, it's a real thing!"
"Look at your refreshments and tea leaves!
As he spoke, the domineering son of the Xiao family slammed the teacup on the table to the ground, and the entourage on the side looked at the shopkeeper Wan with a sneer.
"Hey, if you have something, just talk about it, who is smashing things for?"
Yang Ming couldn't stand it a little, and stepped forward to salute the shopkeeper.
"What kind of green onion are you, do you have your part in talking here? You don't even ask who Lao Tzu is!"
Looking at the arrogant appearance of the son of the Xiao family, Yang Ming directly sent it out with a stick, and the son of the Xiao family was suddenly frightened.
Fortunately, the entourage around him rushed out to block this for him, otherwise this stick would be on Xiao Gongzi's body, and it would be ......
"Who is presumptuous, dare to hurt people!"
The entourage shouted angrily, it was actually a practitioner!
Although the level of true qi is not high, it has also reached the awakening realm.
Yang Ming only used one percent of his strength to use this stick, and this entourage naturally caught it very easily.
"You're finished, you dare to meddle with my son's affairs, no matter who you are, you're finished!"
"Master, I won't change my name, I won't change my surname!"
Yang Ming said with a stick:
"The chief disciple of Lu Zhenren in the Western Regions of Zhongshu Province, the first place in the Tianheng Mountain Hall test, and the little kitchen god Yang Ming, one of the nine chef kings of the Cloud Empire, is also!"
Listening to Yang Ming's long list of names, the entourage was also a little hesitant, Xiao Gongzi had heard of such a person.
In Tianheng Mountain years ago, there was indeed such a dark horse named Yang Ming, who won Tang Xin, who was known as the strongest person of the younger generation of the hidden Tang Sect, in the hall test.
You must know that Tang Xin, one of the five tigers of Miyun, is a well-known figure in Zhongzhou.
Can this Yang Ming beat Tang Xin? That naturally caused an uproar.
"Shopkeeper Wan, this is a letter of recommendation from Zuo Gong to me, you will know it as soon as you check it!"
Shopkeeper Wan opened the letter of recommendation and saw that it was indeed Zuo Gong's note, which means that this kid is indeed the Yang Ming who was in his prime.
"I don't care if you are Yang Ming, Niu Ming or Ma Ming, I'm not happy about Xiao Gongzi today, you have to bear it!"
As he spoke, Xiao Gongzi took a document from the hand of the entourage behind him.
The official document of the Supervision Department is not something that a trader like Wan Zhangguan can afford to provoke.
"I suspect that this restaurant is suspected of raising prices and harming diners, and now I want to check your problem!"
Xiao Gongzi's words are very righteous and shameless.
With the official document of the Supervision Department as a tool to denounce others, this Xiao family's son is really not very good.
When Lin Ruo and Hu Yue walked up to the second floor together, they happened to meet the son of the Xiao family who was bullying people in this battle.
For this kind of behavior, Lin Ruo scoffed.
"With public documents and private accounts, is it possible that the Xiao family is already so corrupt?"
"Who dares to chew the root of my Xiao family's tongue here!
When Xiao Gongzi heard Lin Ruo's words, he immediately slapped the table and stood up, looked at Lin Ruo's disdainful eyes, pointed at Lin Ruo and scolded:
"Which girl are you, dare to talk to me Xiao Jie like this, there are few Yunjing!"
"Show it clearly to the uncle, this is Lin Ruo, the eldest lady of the Lin family, the first family in Yongzhou Mansion in Northern Qian!
Before Lin Ruo could introduce himself, Yang Ming stood directly in front of Lin Ruo and burst out of Lin Ruo's house with a menacing attitude.
This newspaper made Xiao Jie feel a little panicked, the Lin family of Yongzhou Mansion, isn't that the family of the prince and the prince?
If it is a junior from another family, if it is offended, it will be offended, if the girl of this Taishi family is offended......
He Xiao Jie has a relatively good relationship with the prince on weekdays, if he offends Lin Ruo, it is equivalent to offending the Taishi, so wouldn't it be ......
"Ahem, the juniors of Master Lin's family naturally can't afford to offend, but today is the grudge between me and Boss Wan, I hope Miss Lin will please don't meddle in your affairs!"
He Xiao Jie is not an idiot, if he really plays a scoundrel and embarrasses the shopkeeper in front of so many people, if it reaches the ears of the Taishi in the future, it will not sound good.
"Shopkeeper Wan, I don't embarrass you, as long as you make this tea for me according to my requirements today, I will apologize to you!"
With that, he pointed to the broken plates and bowls on the ground.
"Not only will I apologize to you, but I will also compensate you ten times more for these things, but if you can't do it......"
"Don't talk about anything else for the time being, my official document from the Supervision Department is still very good, if you can't do it, that is, there is a problem with your restaurant!"
In the face of Xiao Jie's unreasonable request, Shopkeeper Wan knew very well in his heart that he was coming for which ink treasure yesterday.
This Mobao is very fond of it, how can it be easily given to Xiao Jie.
Who knew that this Xiao Jie actually came to this hand, but the shopkeeper Wan was just a businessman who did business, and there were no nobles in the officialdom to help.
This Xiao Jie's big hat was buttoned down, and he had to close the door for review.
Officials and officials protect each other, and this review is estimated to take a few days, and those who do catering business can make more revenue in the next few days of the New Year.
If this review investigates him for ten days and half a month, even if he is rich, the shopkeeper will have to go bankrupt!
Now at this juncture, it is too late to dredge up relations with people in the officialdom.
His Xiao family's power in officialdom is huge, not to mention whether anyone will take care of this matter, so it will take a lot of money to ask someone to do things.
He really can't afford to spend the shopkeeper and the children of these dignitaries.
"I just want to taste this famous Beigan, frosted crispy pork!"
"I wonder if the shopkeeper can meet this little request?"
As soon as he heard Xiao Jie's request, the face of the shopkeeper turned green.
Frosted pork is a crispy strip of crispy pork made from fresh tenderloin, wrapped in frosting made from South Vietnamese cotton candy.
Not to mention how cumbersome the production process is, the production of this crispy meat has to be marinated with more than ten spices, which is a test of the chef's experience.
The deep-frying of this crispy meat is also very harsh, and it must be fried with high-quality sunflower oil from the river!
However, during the winter and New Year's holidays, there is no sunflower oil on the river at all, even in summer and autumn, this sunflower oil is extremely rare.
He is a high-quality product made from the sunflower seeds of an extremely precious seven-petal fragrant sunflower from the river, which is used exclusively in the imperial dining room.
Moreover, this refreshment is also something that the princes and grandsons in the Cloud Palace can only eat in summer and autumn.
There is no doubt that this Xiao Jie is making it difficult for him to be the shopkeeper, just because the two of them are competing for that calligraphy and painting.
"Harm, I thought it was something, just eating a frosted pork is worth making such a big fuss!"
Yang Ming picked his ears, and what he said surprised the shopkeeper Wan.
Of course, it also surprised Xiao Jie.
He Xiao Jie had a good relationship with the eldest prince, so he accidentally ate this frosted crispy meat at a tea party in the palace.
The frosting is as thin as a cicada's wings, and it is extremely sweet, and it does not feel too sweet at all, but has a kind of fragrant and appetizing feeling.
The crispy meat is fried to a crispy crisp, with a restrained smell of sunflower seeds, and the puff pastry is locked in very tender strips of meat, and the marinated meat strips have all kinds of flavors.
This crispy meat with the tribute tea in the palace is simply the ultimate enjoyment.
was actually said so indifferently by the kid in front of him.
"Heh, you're not old, your tone is not small, you just said that you are one of the nine chef kings, I really want to see why you are called the same as the eight chef kings!"
"Childe, he seems to be a disciple of Lu Qincha, this Lu Qincha ......"
The attendant reminded, Xiao Jie waved his hand, indicating that it didn't matter.
"He said that, it must be difficult for him, let's see whose face is lost today!"
