Hong Kong Island has had a colonial status for decades. The British dominated the political and business circles of Hong Kong Island and were superior.
In addition, under the deliberate guidance of the British people in education and publicity, etc., except for those low-level gangsters and societies, there are also some older people who don’t have many ideas and just want to make money to support their families in a stable way.
People who have some ideas and want to improve their current situation and destiny have to deliberately imitate some Western behaviors and even lifestyles in all aspects due to various factors.
Why is Britain called the troublemaker of the European continent? It’s because Britain is good at using dirty tricks and likes to stir up troubles everywhere.
It is obvious that all official documents of all government departments of the Hong Kong government, including the police force and legal department, are in English, which invisibly excludes Chinese people.
Nowadays, the largest companies in Hong Kong, including some banks, are basically controlled by the British, and some important internal documents are also in English.
Whether Chinese want to work in government departments or in these companies, they must first understand English.
Other companies want to do business with these large companies and are gradually affected by them. The company's middle and senior management must also understand English documents.
Gradually, English has become the official language in both political and business circles on Hong Kong Island. If young people want to get a good job, whether they want to join the government or work as clerks in these companies, they must first understand English.
In the process of learning and using English for a long time, some Western living habits have slowly penetrated into the lives of Chinese people in Hong Kong Island.
Nowadays, in Hong Kong Island, especially among young people, no matter how high-end or luxurious Chinese food is, in the eyes of many Hong Kong Island Chinese, it is not as high-end as Western food.
For today's lunch, Duan Hongxuan prepared a table of authentic Chinese food. It's not that he hates Western food. In Duan Hongxuan's view, whether it is Chinese food or Western food, they are just different dining habits of different regions, countries, and ethnic groups.
But once this kind of dining habit is artificially injected with certain other factors, then dining is no longer just a meal, but becomes a tool.
Whether it is Manager Lin's family or Assistant Feng's family here, their ancestors are all from the mainland, but their parents were born in Hong Kong Island, so they can be regarded as out-and-out natives of Hong Kong Island.
As Hong Kong Island is controlled by the British in all aspects, if the Chinese want to make a living, support their families, live a better life, and provide better living conditions for their families, they are inevitably affected by the British in all aspects.
But for Duan Hongxuan, these two families planned to reuse them in the future. Therefore, Duan Hongxuan also planned to slowly weaken the British influence on them in all aspects through various subtle influences, and strengthen their understanding of China from food to living habits to culture.
Aspect cognition and recognition.
In Duan Hongxuan's view, it is very important. If you cannot do this, you will gradually be eliminated from Duan Hongxuan's core circle in the future business landscape, and may even be completely abandoned by Duan Hongxuan.
When robots cook, they will only rigidly follow the quantities on the recipes. Fortunately, these robots are much more intelligent than imagined. Coupled with the spatial intelligence, various recipes have been refined and the saltiness in the recipes has been reduced.
, light, sweet and other flavors have been quantified, and even the heat during cooking is marked with what temperature for different time periods.
With such detailed recipes and powerful detectors in the robot's eyes, some Chinese meals prepared by the robot chef are no less than those of many top chefs.
For example, Duan Hongxuan prepared an authentic roast duck. This kind of dish is most suitable for robots to cook, because humans can only rely on experience and eyes to control time, temperature, etc., but robots can analyze various data through detectors.
Quantify, make very fine adjustments, and even have detectors that can detect the degree of ripeness inside your food.
Therefore, the roast duck made by the robot is even better than the roast duck made by the top chef of old Beijing roast duck.
It was lunch time and everyone was invited into the dining room.
Everyone arrived at Duan Hongxuan's house early in the morning. Although they had seen various scenery in the villa yard, they had not been to the villa itself.
As soon as everyone entered the villa, they were dazzled by the simple and fashionable decoration style and various furniture that they had never seen in the villa before.
This simple, bright and fashionable decoration style and various furniture are most popular among Assistant Feng’s couple and several children of Manager Lin’s family.
After all, they were young people. This decoration style they had never seen before attracted their admiration. They kept asking Lou Xiao'e and He Yuyu.
Everyone was talking and laughing all the way to the dining room.
Duan Hongxuan asked everyone to sit down, and He Yuyu suddenly said to Duan Hongxuan: "Brother Hongxuan, do you want to drink some wine at noon? If you want to drink, our ladies want Bixianglu."
When I heard this, I suddenly remembered: "Hey, Hongxuan, you only brought the clear stream spring to my grandpa and uncle yesterday, but you didn't bring several jars of Bixiang dew to my aunt!"
I will open a jar today and let my aunt try it!
Auntie, let me tell you, the wine we drank yesterday was called Qingxiquan. Hongxuan also has a low-alcohol wine called Bixianglu specially for ladies. Drink it to promote blood circulation and nourish the skin. Today, I will let you try Bixianglu. I will give it to you later.
You take two jars back!"
As soon as Lou Xiao'e spoke, the two aunts immediately remembered the wine they drank yesterday, and the eldest aunt looked at Duan Hongxuan with a smile: "How come Hongxuan only thinks about grandpa and uncle when there are good things, and doesn't care about us two aunts?
"
Duan Hongxuan glared at He Yuyu and Lou Xiao'e depressedly, and quickly explained to his two aunts: "First aunt, second aunt, please don't misunderstand me!
To be honest, I really forgot yesterday, not on purpose.
Besides, our two families live so close together, and there are two traitors in the house, how can I hide the good stuff here!"
"Hahaha!"
"Grrrr!"
Everyone couldn't help laughing when they saw Duan Hongxuan's depressed look, even He Yuyu and Yu Haitang couldn't stop laughing.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Okay, okay, I will make up for you today. If you like it, aunt and uncle, I will bring you two jars back later!"
I’ll go get you some drinks right now!”
While Duan Hongxuan was getting married, a row of servants came into the dining room, each holding a basin of warm water and a clean towel to clean everyone's hands.
When everyone liked it, Duan Hongxuan returned to the dining room with two wine jars.
When He Yuyu and the others saw it, they got up and grabbed the wine jar from Duan Hongxuan's hand to pour wine for everyone.
In the end, Yu Haitang and Qin Jingru took over the job of pouring wine.
Duan Hongxuan looked at the children on the table and said, "Ming Feng, Ming Na and Zhi Wen can drink a glass of Bixiang Dew like the ladies, and everyone else can drink from the clear stream spring!"
Manager Lin looked at the crystal clear green water in the cup in front of him and asked Lou Xiao'e thoughtfully: "Miss, this wine is called Qingxiquan.
One of the two young masters is named Qingxi and the other is Qingquan. Their names and this wine...!"
"Huh?" The two aunts suddenly came to their senses and couldn't help looking at Lou Xiao'e curiously.
Lou Xiao'e chuckled and said: "Manager Lin's guess is right!
Qingxi and Qingquan were both born in the capital. When they were born, their father was obsessed with names and could never come up with a satisfactory name for them.
It has been more than half a year, and both Qingxi and Qingquan only have two nicknames: Dabao and Xiaobao.
It was not until later that Hongxuan gave his wine a formal name. Because his father liked the wine from Qingxi Spring very much, and thought Qingxi Spring sounded particularly charming, he had an idea and named the name Qingquan and Qingxi to Dabao and Xiaobao.
The name of the creek!”
Everyone suddenly realized when they heard this. The second aunt was surprised and said: "Xiao'e, if you look at it this way, the names of Qingxi and Qingquan were largely given by Hongxuan!"
Lou Xiao'e thought for a while and couldn't help but nodded: "Well, that's right!"
At this time, Yu Haitang and Qin Jingru had finished pouring the wine. Duan Hongxuan signaled to the butler. Soon, several chefs came to the restaurant with several roast ducks that were charred on the outside and tender on the inside.
Duan Hongxuan explained to everyone: "This first dish I am serving you is roast duck, using the authentic old Beijing roast duck method.
Authentic Beijing roast duck must be roasted in a hanging oven using fruit wood firewood, so that the roasted duck itself has a faint aroma of fruit wood. The heat must be just right, and the skin must be roasted to a caramel color, and the outside may be charred and the inside may be tender.
When eating, a specialized chef slices the roast duck into thin slices one by one with a knife and places it on the plate. Then, he puts a few slices of duck meat on the pancakes, plus sliced cucumber strips and green onions, and dips them in the pre-prepared duck meat.
The prepared sweet noodle sauce tastes absolutely amazing.
Many times when entertaining foreign guests, we have to invite them to eat Beijing roast duck."
When everyone heard this, everyone immediately stared at the roast duck in the chef's hand.
When Lou Xiao'e saw that Duan Hongxuan had finished the introduction, she raised her glass and said, "Come on, let's raise a glass and have a drink. Welcome everyone to our home!"
When everyone heard this, they quickly raised their glasses, and it was quite extraordinary to drink one sip of wine.
Both adults and children are amazed by the various physical reactions caused by drinking alcohol.
The restaurant immediately burst into praises such as "Good wine!", "This wine is great!" and so on.
Fortunately, the children said that after all, they had never drank wine before and this was their first time drinking. They thought all wine was like this. Then they couldn't help but suddenly realized, no wonder adults love drinking so much. It turns out that this wine really tastes like this.
good.
The key is to take a sip of wine and not to mention the feeling of relaxation that makes your whole body feel refreshed from head to toe, inside and out.
But Manager Lin and Assistant Feng, including the eldest and second eldest son of Manager Lin’s family, had all drank before.
But other wine is just wine. After drinking this wine today, the various reactions and physical sensations after drinking it make people feel that this is not wine.
Especially the feeling of physical relief, which is no less than an elixir!
It was only then that Manager Lin and Assistant Feng finally understood why Boss Lou had been obsessed with Duan Hongxuan's wine and tea. They originally thought it was Lou Jingzhai's kind words.
This magical wine made the two of them interested in tea, which was ranked alongside this wine by Lou Jingzhai. I wonder if they will be lucky enough to taste it today.
