Chapter 304 I lied to you that you are a dog

Everyone was amazed. They felt great after getting rich. With the emotional filter, all the scenic spots became more beautiful and the countryside became a paradise.

After stopping for a while, it was already past one o'clock when we returned to the village, and we were ready to serve food. While waiting, Boss Ouyang asked curiously: "Where did you get so many azaleas?"

"The mountain was burned by fire. What other reason could there be?" Su Weijun explained with a smile: "The vitality of azaleas is relatively tenacious. They will grow new branches in the second year. Once they grow taller, they will overwhelm other weeds."

Trees, if they take away the sunshine, will grow better and better." After saying that, he beat the beat and sang a sentimental song:

"Chai Pai Flowers Bloom"

The sky thundered and the mountain fire broke out,

Grass and trees are burning, everything is charred,

Fire roasts thousands of peaks and turns them into charcoal black.

A spring rain will begin next year,

Only the branches of firewood sprout,

Blooming red flowers alone.

In an instant, the color is as bright as the morning glow.

The swaying reflections reflect thousands of red mountains.

Considering that he was a guest from Shanghai, he sang in Mandarin this time. He explained to the guest that azaleas are called Chaipaihua in Xianju dialect.

On the wall of the hall, a video of the Wine Festival that had just been prepared was projected. Jin Huabin took a look and saw that the villagers playing the Eight Immortals in the video were gone. They were actors from a professional county theater troupe. They were very precise and performed much more professionally. The dry ice was also used at the right time.

The spouting, ethereal ones are more eye-catching, but they lack a local flavor. He understands the difficulties of the cultural center. In order to inherit intangible cultural heritage, it must be enjoyed by modern people, and only if it is enjoyable to watch can it be recognized.

At the other end of the hall, an unknown online reporter was interviewing today's protagonist, Chai Jinri.

Reporter: "I heard that you have been fighting for the county government to connect cement roads to the village, but there is another opinion that it is cheaper to just use the money to build roads to immigrate a few households, and life after immigration will be more convenient.

What do you think?"

Chai Jinli: "It is said that people should live in harmony with nature. When people live in the city, the mountains are emptied out, people return to others, and nature returns to nature. Is this called living in harmony?"

Reporter: "Then how do you understand the relationship between man and nature?"

Chai Jinri: "I take good care of every plant and tree in the mountains. Every plant and tree in the mountains is provided for me to eat and use. In my free time, I shake my fan to look at the flowers and smell the fragrance."

After hearing this, Boss Ouyang gave a thumbs up and praised: "There was a poem by an eminent monk in the past: There are flowers in spring and moon in autumn, cool breeze in summer and snow in winter. If there is nothing to worry about, it is a good time in the world. What this master said to him

The same transparency.”

During the chat, the banquet began. Because it was a wine festival, reporters came again, and there were more than a dozen tables in the hall outside the hall. When the first dish was served, the drum sounded again, and Chai Jinli and another old man sang for everyone.

Start serving food and sing.

"Eight Immortals Baoyuan Soup"

Fat pig's trotters, river crucian carp,

Lean beef, red dates,

Stew with hawthorn and water.

Cook the casserole on low heat for an hour,

One bowl each morning and evening,

I hope your energy stays intact.

According to the Eight Immortals of Baoyuan Tang,

It will make you stand tall in the sky.

The name of this dish is related to the Eight Immortals? Jin Huabin thought deeply. Suddenly, a female guest from Shanghai asked: "Excuse me, what does it mean that you will be able to stand up to the sky?"

He smiled awkwardly and said, "You have to ask your husband about this."

The female guest understood, turned to her husband with a blushing face, took the soup bowl and said, "You are not allowed to drink this soup."

While chatting and laughing, the dishes were served one by one, and a jar of Eight Immortals wine and a jar of Wuzi Dengke wine were placed on each table. Rural people like to make punches to make drinking orders when drinking. After a while, the five leaders, six sixty-six, and six six six were shouting loudly.

The ritual of announcing the names of wine and dishes is still being sung, but it can no longer be heard clearly.

The taste of the dishes is very special, with a faint medicinal aroma. The host told me: "This is the Eight Immortals Polygonatum Feast, most of which are made with Polygonatum, Polygonatum odoratum, Dendrobium, Dictyophora and other medicinal and edible materials. The main one is

Taoist health and wellness.”

"There are no eight bowls of Xianju among them. Doesn't it mean that the eight bowls are the Eight Immortals' dishes?" A Shanghai customer had eaten the eight bowls and asked in confusion: "There is no one on the table. Why?"

Chai Jinli shook his head and said, "I'll have to find another educated person to ask. The recipe of eight large bowls does not reflect the characteristics of Taoist cuisine. Taoist vegetarian dishes are also called vegetarian dishes. The raw materials used include tofu, gluten, bamboo shoots, fungi, etc."

The raw materials of meat-based food are mostly wild game, mountain delicacies, and commonly used medicinal ingredients for seasoning. They are famous for their strong juice and rich flavor, and have the characteristics of health preservation. There are appropriate taboos in food, when to eat, and activities after eating. This is the health and wellness that Taoism should have

.”

The guest said in awe, "Old man, which school did you graduate from?"

"Poor people can't afford to study, so they went to private schools for two years when they were young."

During the conversation, it was already three o'clock, the stock market had closed, and the eight guests' interest was drawn to the market again. According to the final inventory, everyone sold at the highest point, and made a total of more than one million yuan.

"The Eight Immortals here are not allowed to drive after drinking. How about we stay here and listen to the old man telling the story of the Eight Immortals?" A guest suggested to Boss Ouyang: "There is a tent in the car and the weather is nice."

Everyone happily agreed. After dinner, the other guests went back. It was cold in the mountains and the moon was bright in the sky. Chai Jinli lit a pile of firewood and chanted in the light of the fire: "The moon is above the pine branches, and the host is tipsy. Tonight, under the cuckoos, I will chat with the guests."

the Eight Immortals."

Yinbi began to tell the story: "Everyone saw the Dog King yesterday, let's start with the dog story. It is about a tofu vendor in Guanlu Township, Xianju, in the second year of Zhou Xiande's reign. His name was Chen Yuecai, who liked to take advantage of small things.

He often played tricks on the scale, but he was short of a pound or two. One day, an old man rode a donkey upside down and came to buy tofu from him. He asked for two pounds of tofu, but he only gave him one and a half pounds. The old man came back and said to him: "Young man,

The tofu just weighed too much, you gave me half a catty less."

Chen Yuecai swore and swore: "Old man, you can eat randomly, but you can't talk nonsense. I have been in business for ten years, and I have always been based on honesty and integrity."

The old man took out a steelyard from his back, weighed the tofu up and said, "Do you think it's two catties or one and a half catties?"

Chen Yuecai rolled his eyes, turned around and said to the onlookers: "You are using a ghost scale to accuse me unjustly. I swear in front of everyone that the tofu I, Mr. Chen, gave to the guests was definitely worth a pound. I lied to you that I was a dog."

"

The old man stopped talking, got on the donkey and walked away, playing the fishing drum and singing:

"Answer the Oath"

What you say must be done, and what you do must be fruitful.

Once an oath is made, it must be answered.

There is a god three feet above your head.

Businessmen lack integrity,

Two pounds of tofu is half a pound less,

He who swears to lie is a dog.

I'll give you a dog body as you wish,

I'll give you back your human form in three years.

Seeing that the old man was gone, the people around him dispersed slowly. After Chen Yuecai sold the tofu, he touched his bulging wallet and said to himself, "These fools, I falsely reported the price comparison."

Others were 10% lower and stole the scale by 20%. In fact, they made you 10% more money. They came to me one by one to buy tofu, so I deserved to be rich. Just after I finished speaking, I felt itchy all over. I stretched out my hand to scratch it, and it was like a heavy load of tofu.

He fell to the ground with a loud sound, and he turned over and fell. When he opened his eyes, something incredible happened. His hands were covered with hair, and his legs could no longer stand. He just wanted to call for help, but he made a barking sound.

, I turned into a dog.”

Speaking of this, Chai Jinli yawned and said, "That's it for today. Let's have a good sleep and continue tomorrow morning."
