Volume 1 A Hundred Years of Luck in the Rivers and Lakes Chapter 166 Fighting for Fish Soup and Noodles
Just when everyone was eating with relish.
In the back kitchen of Fu Mian Zhai, a fat man with a fat body walked out with a figure-eight step.
The fat man looked like he was in his forties, dressed in a snow-white chef's robe, wearing a high hat, and carrying a delicate birdcage carved from mahogany.
The birdcage is covered with a layer of white yarn, and through the fine gauze holes, a fist-sized bird can be vaguely seen. Colorful, bright and moving.
The middle-aged fat man carrying the birdcage, named Jubo, is the owner of this rich noodle restaurant.
Every day after noon, it is the most leisurely time of the bureau, and whenever this time, he will take his cherished multicolored partridge to the living room for a walk.
Today, Jubo came to the living room as usual, and when he saw Liu Fengliu, who was sitting around a table with Meng Li and others eating noodles, he walked over with a smile.
"Oh, isn't this Liu Gongzi? It's good not to see Liu Gongzi for a few days!"
Seeing the smiling game, Liu Fengliu's face suddenly turned dark, and he slapped the chopsticks in his hand on the table without speaking.
Jubo licked his stomach and giggled: "What's the matter, Gongzi Liu, don't you usually be able to speak? Why don't you talk today? I remember that a few days ago, didn't you say that my bowl of brocade noodles for two taels of silver is too cheap to enter your mouth as you are accustomed to eating delicacies from the mountains and seas?"
Meng Li and the others looked at Liu Fengliu in shock.
Feelings, who can't even look down on a tael of silver! It is worthy of being a suave family, admired and admired.
Feeling everyone's gaze, Liu Fengliu's face was slightly red, he glared at Ju Bo fiercely, and scolded secretly: This dead fat man!
Bu Yu saw Jubo's chef's robe, and said with a curious expression: "Are you the noodle cook?"
Jubo shook the fat on his body and said proudly: "I am not only the chef here, but also the boss here." This boy, we can still eat the noodles here!"
"You're enough!" Liu Fengliu suddenly stood up and said with a gloomy face: "We just came over for a meal, and we don't want to be disturbed." ”
As long as he saw this situation, Liu Fengliu felt disgusted in his heart.
The rich families in Jieshui City also have a circle, and many of them are sons and daughters who like to play eagle and walk dogs.
Liu Fengliu prides himself on being a romantic man, so he will naturally not be absent, and this is also the root of his acquaintance with the bureau.
Although the bureau is forty, he also likes to play eagle and walk the dog, and he opened a rich noodle restaurant at home, which can be said to be a daily gold, and over time he will mix into this circle.
Liu Fengliu has always raised a jasper parrot, with a crystal coat color, a whole body like jade, and can speak out, so that the merry man has always been the leader in this circle.
But a few days ago, Jubo got a colorful partridge out of nowhere and stole his limelight.
No one can always dominate the limelight, although Liu Fengliu is a little uncomfortable in his heart, he doesn't care.
However, this bureau is not a calm master, but he still has to step on his face, which makes him very angry.
An old guy, just follow them and a bunch of young people, but they still have to rub his popularity, how can Liu Fengliu endure it?
A few days ago, I came here to eat noodles with my friends, and when I saw Jubo's smug face, I was immediately angry, and I devalued the splendid noodles and the rich noodles as worthless.
Originally, Liu Fengliu planned not to set foot here again for the rest of his life. But he never expected that Meng Li would also open a noodle restaurant.
Let's open it, but I don't know which tendon I make wrong, so I have to say a rich noodle fast.
It's good now that I've pitted myself.
But then again, Liu Fengliu was not afraid of the situation, he simply felt disgusting, if he really him off, he would not be polite.
Ju Bo sneered: "Liu Da Shao, Liu Da Shao! I told you a long time ago, no matter how big this water city is, there is no more authentic noodle restaurant than our rich noodle restaurant." Let's just say that this splendid noodle, but I have traveled thousands of miles to Zhongzhou to learn the secret that is not passed on, how can the fish soup noodles in this water city be compared?"
Hu Bugui looked at the bureau and couldn't help frowning, fish noodle soup is the traditional food of Jieshui City, and it is also a cultural extension backed by the Huaichuan River, carrying the memories of their recent generation.
"Bastard!"
Just when Hu Bugui was about to shoot the case, one person was one step ahead of him.
Syllable!
A loud noise reverberated in the living room, and the noisy noodle restaurant was suddenly stunned.
The guests in the hall raised their heads one after another and looked at Meng Li in puzzlement.
Is this going to smash the field?
Jubo squinted his eyes and stared at Meng Li with a gloomy expression, disdainful after confirming that the latter was not a young man in the city.
"Young man, his temper is not small. Looking at your posture, aren't you going to smash my rich noodles?"
Meng Li said indifferently: "The bureau boss is serious. There are just some thoughts under that don't spit out unpleasantly. ”
Jubo sneered: "What do you think?"
Meng Li picked up the colorful splendid noodles in front of him and said, "I just listened to the meaning of the bureau boss, Fu Mian Zhai is the first noodle restaurant in Jieshui, and this splendid noodles are fish soup noodles that cannot be compared?"
Jubo said proudly: "That's the case, if you don't believe it, you can ask and see what everyone here says." ”
Meng Li said with a smile: "If you want me to see it, you don't have to ask, how can someone who has never eaten dragon meat tell the taste of dragon meat? As for what the bureau boss just said......
Speaking of this, Meng Li's smile suddenly turned cold.
"It's just fart!"
Fish soup noodles are not as good as splendid noodles?
"You ......"
Jubo was smoked by Meng Li's fart, and his carrot-thick fingers pointed at Meng Li and said, "Do you know what you're talking about!"
Meng Li said: "Bureau boss, this splendid noodle, the noodles are good but the soup is poor, not to mention the most authentic fish noodle soup in our water city, even the fish noodle soup I make can't compare." ”
"You are arrogant!" the bureau was so angry that his fat body trembled.
Meng Li sneered: "Is it arrogant, the bureau boss will soon know that in two days, I will open a noodle restaurant in Bei'anfang, and I hope that the bureau boss will give me more advice." ”
How delicious can the noodles be made from a small doll?
Looking at Meng Li's young face and slender wrists, the anger on Jubo's face gradually turned into a sneer.
"When the time comes, the bureau will definitely come!"
"Okay, then we'll see you in two days!"
Meng Li politely clenched his fists, then turned to leave.
Miss Bu looked at Meng Li, who turned to leave, and then looked at the splendid face held in her arms, with a look of embarrassment on her face.
Should you eat this noodle or not?
A little earlier, just when Meng Li's shooting started, causing the store to be shocked, a man on the foot of the slope who passed in front of the noodle shop happened to see this scene in his eyes.
"It's him!"
After seeing Meng Li, the lame man was shocked, and then showed a touch of ecstasy.
"It's really hard to find a place to step on the iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get there, I can't imagine you are here. ”
The lame man is, of course, Zhang Heng, who was picked off by Bu Yu and broke his tendons. In the past two days, in addition to spreading the news that Guo Si was killed by Han Fei, he has not been idle, and has been trying to find the whereabouts of Meng Li and others.
After glancing at Meng Li, he looked at the jade-like man holding the noodle bowl, and Zhang Heng had a complicated expression.
You wait, I Zhang Heng will definitely not let you go.
After glancing at Meng Li and the others viciously, Zhang Heng propped up the wooden crutch and limped towards Xishuifang.
However, with the speed of his feet, no matter how fast he walked, what role could he play? By the time Han Fei was brought here, Meng Li and the others had already left.
Han Fei looked at the people who went to the empty building of Fu Mian Zhai, and said with an ugly face: "I was negligent, I should have come with you." ”
Zhang Heng said: "Second brother, don't worry, there may be a turning point in this matter." ”
Hearing that there was a turning point, Han Fei's eyes flashed.
"What do you mean? Do you know where they went?"
Zhang Hengdao: "When I passed by here just now, I saw that Meng Li was confronting the boss of Fu Mian Zhai, maybe we can find Meng Li's whereabouts through Fu Mian Zhai." ”
Then the two found Jubo, got to know each other, and got the news that Meng Li would open a noodle restaurant in Bei'anfang two days later.
Han Fei, who learned the news, smiled coldly and said, "Okay, you Meng Li, you still have the leisure to open a noodle restaurant." In that case, I will wait for you for two more days. ”
Bei'an Fang, Meng's house, front yard.
The huge courtyard was silent, except for a cloud of green smoke rising slowly.
Everyone sat around a large pot and watched as Meng Li put the freshly rolled noodles into the snow-white and rich fish soup.
"Okay, in a few minutes, the noodles will be ready to eat. ”
Meng Li stirred the noodles, covered the cauldron with a lid, patted his hands full of flour, and said to everyone with a smile.
Everyone was silent, all with strange expressions.
The young man wondered, "What's the matter?" Don't you want to try my noodle fish soup?"
Liu Fengliu said with a dark face: "Brother Meng, why don't you forget it! This noodle restaurant won't open first." ”
"Why?" Meng Li was even more confused, looked at the other people and asked, "You think so too?"
"Hmm!"
Everyone nodded in unison.
Meng Li stretched out his hand and knocked on the steaming cauldron, and said with a gloomy face: "It seems that you don't believe me?"
Everyone, you look at me, I look at you. In the end, it was Wang Ergou who stood up and said with a wry smile: "It's not that we don't believe you, but we can't believe you, didn't you find your own problem when you made noodles just now?"
Bu Yu pouted and said, "A person who can even cut noodles, what good noodles can he make, I really don't know where your courage in Fumian Zhai came from?"
Meng Li touched his nose, his expression a little embarrassed.
Indeed, he is not good at the technical work of dough rolling.
Just now, I wanted to show my hand in front of everyone, but I shook the noodles and flew out, and everyone was shocked.
I had no choice but to change to a knife-cut surface.
"Well, the process is not important, the key is to see the result. Smell it, isn't my fish soup fragrant?"
"Incense?"
Bu Yu sneered: "Incense has a fart, just your rotten noodles cut out with a few knives, can you compare to other people's colorful vegetable juice noodles? ”
"I see, so you're worried about this. ”
Seeing everyone's suspicious eyes, Meng Li smiled coldly.
O ignorant mortals!
Meng Li said confidently: "Since this is the case, let's try it and talk about it." ”
