The things Zhaoqing took over were indeed a bit troublesome, there were too many things to do.
If he went to a department store and bought directly from the order, the police would have to be called.
What's more, even if it was bought, how could he and An's brothers get it back?
Fortunately, whoever gets the credit gets to do it.
This matter is difficult for ordinary people, but it is not difficult for Hong Yanwu.
No, the tourist business is already very slow in winter, and the transportation teams of "Xiaobaizi" and "Dayong" have also gone on holiday in advance.
Hong Yanwu sent these two groups of people to go around the major shopping malls in the capital and bought almost everything.
As for the transportation problem, it is also easy to handle.
Isn't it a great liberation to help make sets and walk around the city selling unsalable products from clothing companies?
Although the road is not easy to travel, it is still young.
But this is a long-term cooperative relationship, and the driver will not fail to help, so he will just provide some money.
In this way, Hong Yanwu quickly got everything done properly.
When Zhaoqing returned with these things, Longkou Village became a carnival.
The people in the whole village were so happy that they lifted Zhaoqing up and threw him into the sky.
Besides, Secretary An has never been so prosperous.
It is no exaggeration to say that from before the festival to after the festival, he and Yuntai and his son became the guests that every household rushed to invite, and they couldn't even eat the invitation.
But the more prosperous the situation, the more regretful Secretary An becomes. He always feels that they owe something to the Hong family.
Come to think of it, when I first asked someone for advice, he left in a hurry without bringing anything.
They entertained and helped me, and all the money was earned by their help.
It was a big festival. I had just finished all the things in the village and didn't have time to buy anything, so I sent some local products from the village as a New Year gift.
How inappropriate is it that instead of thanking people properly, you add so much trouble to them?
What's more, there will be no shortage of useful places in the future.
If you have slighted someone, how can you be so embarrassed to speak again if something happens again?
So he wanted Zhaoqing to make another trip and use the money from the factory to buy some expensive gifts for the Hong family.
But as soon as this matter was mentioned, Yuntai unexpectedly stopped him.
He said that since we are all relatives, we should support each other.
We should focus on each other rather than focusing on things, and there is no need to ask or not to ask for, let alone superficial forms.
There will be a long time to come. As long as you have it in your heart, there will always be opportunities to repay you. Don’t be too hasty.
In such a hurry, the Hong family must find a way to reciprocate the gift, which in turn caused unnecessary trouble to each other.
And according to what he said, the Hong family values etiquette the most. It is a big problem to celebrate the holidays every year. Now he is probably having a headache because of giving gifts everywhere.
In this case, Secretary An could only give up.
But to be honest, Yuntai does know the Hong family well enough.
Because the Hong family has a wide range of contacts, giving gifts every year is indeed an arduous task.
The thickness of the gift, the measure of affordability and decency, the closeness and distance of the gift, each person's preference and the principle of receiving gifts must be carefully considered.
And no matter whether you are close by or far away, no one can pull you down, no matter your teachers, relatives, or friends.
No, Hong Yanwu would have troubled his brain by giving Zhang Dashao something right before his eyes.
Because this old man has no other hobbies except eating.
You can drink it with tobacco, wine and tea, as long as it goes smoothly.
But the food I ate was the other way around. I almost didn’t like it at all.
To be honest, this year Bincheng really sent something to deal with an emergency. Otherwise, he really didn't know how to fulfill this courtesy and express his sincerity.
But then again, it was also because of the gift giving.
On the evening of February 10, Hong Yanwu and Chen Liquan arrived at the door of "Zhang Dashao" with game and seafood.
They unexpectedly discovered that this old man had a more mysterious origin.
A master of Shandong cuisine who has prepared state banquets?
It's not that simple.
What's going on?
Fortunately, as soon as they entered the courtyard, they saw a strange sight.
A girl with shoulder-length hair and a young man with short hair were pushed out of "Zhang Dashao"'s room.
They were carrying so many gifts of tobacco, wine, sugar and tea that they almost fell to the ground. This was so embarrassing and embarrassing.
What's even more strange is that "Zhang Dashao" looks more like he is angry and is still chasing people away angrily.
"Let's go, leave quickly! I tell you, don't come to my door anymore. I don't want to see you. I'll stay wherever it's cool!"
The two young men looked at each other for a moment, at a loss.
Especially that woman, who was so thin-skinned, was already a little angry at being driven away in this way, and couldn't help but accuse her.
"Master Zhang, the 'Palace Royal Cuisine Culture Research Association' we represent is supported by the city government. Since its establishment last year, it has not only received strong support from 'Fangshan Restaurant' and 'Tingli Restaurant', but also Mr. Fu Jie is our honorary
consultant."
"It is because we have admired your name for so long that we have visited you many times to ask you to come out. But as for you, as the heir to the imperial cuisine, you are not only unwilling to do your part to promote our food culture, but you actually hurt others with your words for no reason."
"You... you don't have the demeanor of a cooking master at all. Compared with Master Chen who introduced us, you are far behind... We are so disappointed in you!"
Hey, this is a lot of information.
Hong Yanwu and Chen Liquan wanted to ask, but their ears stopped moving after hearing it, and they were thinking of hearing something more.
Unexpectedly, the old man denied it and even cursed.
"Shit palace chef! I don't know what you are talking about! Let me tell you, just because you used the surname Chen to make an issue, I am rude to you! I know best what kind of bullshit master he is. Are you still disappointed?
It’s right to be disappointed! You go back and tell him to stop trying to figure me out! If you want to use me as a sign, there’s no way! I don’t want to have anything to do with him anymore in this life! Do you hear me, get out!”
And the young man was no longer angry now.
"I'll go! Why are you still scolding the Master? What's wrong with us? As the saying goes, you can't reach out to hit someone with a smiling face. Why has it changed here? It's true, you have lived for such a long time, but you are so unreasonable. If you weren't afraid of people
To say that I bully others, given my bad temper, that would have to be..."
"What do you have to do? Are you acting like a bastard? Can you do it? Let's try..."
Hong Yanwu said something and Chen Liquan came over shaking his arms.
Nothing else. The more the young man spoke, the more outrageous he became. He was afraid of making the old man angry.
When the young man looks at these two people, they are really tall and powerful. Compared with them, he himself is like a bean sprout.
As the saying goes, a good man never suffers immediate losses, and he understands that he will never put his own health in jeopardy.
The young man immediately became honest, his tone changed, and he became a scholar again.
"Hey, what are you two going to do? Is it your business? Besides, you have to be reasonable when meddling in other people's business. A gentleman should talk but not talk, no no... talk but never touch..."
Seeing the two-faced coward, Hong Yanwu sneered even more contemptuously.
"Okay. You can't even use your hands or mouth. Don't blame others. If you come to the door at night, if they don't welcome you, just leave. What are you making a fuss about? I heard it, the old man started
But you didn’t curse, you just kept getting angry because you couldn’t explain it clearly. Isn’t this your own fault?”
"Besides, look around. Everyone is very tired after work, and the neighbors have made you noisy. How can someone do this in front of your house? Are you sensible or ignorant? Let me tell you,
Don’t study about palace meals. Go back and study carefully about what is the minimum public morality..."
Yes, a few words immediately left the girl and the boy speechless.
Well, with such a big movement, someone from the next door neighbor has already come out to see it.
Hey, I know that the longer I delay, the more embarrassing it will be.
The young man and the girl just wandered away together - withered away.
After driving away the people, Hong Yanwu came forward and invited the neighbors back to their homes, and then went into the house to comfort "Zhang Dashao".
"Master Zhang, is it worth it for you to be so angry with them? What on earth is going on? Can you tell us?"
Unexpectedly, this was just a way of irritating the old man. The old man's anger hadn't subsided yet. As soon as he glared, he rushed at him again.
"What are you asking about? The things here have nothing to do with you. Let me tell you two first, what are you doing here?"
Hong Yanwu quickly put away the sack he had brought.
"Isn't this a festival? I'll give you some game and seafood."
Chen Liquan was also respectful.
"You are the master, we have to come and see you."
But I didn't expect that "Zhang Dashao" really looked like a dog biting Lu Dongbin, and he didn't appreciate it at all.
"It's unnecessary. Master? We are not masters and disciples. Why don't we just agree? I'll teach you when you get paid. Why are you showing off your courtesy when you have nothing to do? Don't do this, take it away!"
Hey, Chen Liquan was blushing because of the crowds at that time. Just look at this variety, will it never end?
However, Hong Yanwu didn't care and would find excuses.
He rolled his eyes and said, "Master Zhang, you can't actually say that it's a holiday gift. Some sea cucumbers, prawns and the like are not available in the capital. Isn't this just for me to learn how to cook with you? Just use them as ingredients."
No? Besides, my mother also said that these wild birds are called 'Feyelengu' and they are very precious. If people who don't understand do it, they will waste it. So I brought it to you to see. I don't know if you have any.
I don’t have the ability. Tell me how to do it, and you will stay, otherwise I will have to take it back..."
Hey, don't tell me, this stimulating method really works.
"Zhang Dashao" immediately went to open the bag with his eyes gleaming.
Looking at it now, it turns out that the things given by the "Hai Bangzi" are indeed really good.
All serious Liaodong dried ginseng has thirty heads, all with thorns on four sides. The dried prawns have no shrimp bran and are at least twice as big as those sold in Beijing.
But this was nothing. What really caught his eye was the wild bird that was slightly larger than a pigeon.
There are three of them in total. Their spotted feathers are very colorful. The most peculiar thing is the layers of scales on their sharp hooks and claws, which look very domineering.
But the old man was as happy as a child on the spot, and he said it in a show-off manner.
"Tch, you really asked the right person. I really recognize this thing. It's a thing from the Greater Khingan Mountains. It's called 'Flying Dragon', and its scientific name is Hazel Chicken. As the old saying goes, 'Donkey meat on the ground, dragon meat in the sky', in this sentence
The dragon refers to this flying bird. As for how to make it, you can’t ask me. You can’t fry or fry this thing. Its characteristic is that it has a strong and fresh taste, ranking first among poultry, so it must be stewed to make the best use of its ingredients.
. To put it bluntly, it’s not waste if it’s either soup or hot pot base. Am I right? Leave it to me, you, this is a rare good thing..."
Hong Yanwu naturally smiled and admitted defeat.
As a result, he was so convinced that "Zhang Dashao" laughed and started to sneer.
"Are you stupid? I'm also telling you that I know a lot of things. Like your mother said 'Feyelengu', that's the name in the palace. In Manchu, it means 'on the tree'
Chicken'. Just this alone shows that your mother's family background is unusual. What happened? Did you reveal it accidentally?"
But I didn't expect that this complacency would lead to a trap.
Hong Yanwu actually also smiled.
"You are right, but 'Master Zhang', my mother also said that this thing is a tribute from the palace since the Qianlong reign of the Qing Dynasty. It is rare for outsiders to see it. How do you know? And you know it so clearly.
?Don’t forget, you just said that you don’t know what royal cuisine is. Isn’t this a lie? Are you so embarrassed?”
Well, "Zhang Dashao" was really confused.
I have opened a second group, group number: 608640021. There has always been controversy about whether Feilong and Shaban chicken are the same breed. Some people say they are, some people say they are not. This is normal. Because there are many cases and phenomena of folk names being passed down from generation to generation.
Sometimes profiteers will deliberately deceive each other because a certain specialty product is famous. As far as I know, the passion fruit of the past and the passion fruit of today, and the quince of the past and the quince of today are not the same thing. It is not without such reasons.
The annotations on the Internet are wrong. What is certain is that the flying dragon has five fingers, is covered with scales, and has delicious meat. It is inaccessible to other birds and extremely difficult to catch. As for what kind of bird it is, I really don’t know.
Therefore, I completely quoted the written information from the past. I can only rely on this for the time being. I believe you will understand.
