This slap was so loud that everyone present was stunned, and the kitchen suddenly became silent. Although Li Qi is usually strict, he rarely hits people. At most, he only curses a few words and occasionally shoots.
This is the first time for me to be slapped on the head and slapped.
Five clear five-fingerprints appeared immediately on Wu Xiaoliu's right cheek, but he seemed to have been stunned and didn't feel the pain on his face at all. He just stared at Li Qi blankly, with a trace of fear in his eyes.
Li Qi looked ferocious. He glanced at the pot of soup on the stove, his eyes full of horror, and said coldly: "Liu Zi, if something unexpected happens today, your life will be over."
Although Li Qi had said this sentence countless times, this time all the cooks including Wu Xiaoliu knew that he was not joking, but they did not understand why Li Qi suddenly became angry.
Li Qi glanced at everyone and said in a deep voice: "Have any of you tried this soup?"
Everyone shook their heads in unison.
Li Qidao: "Really?"
Everyone nodded in unison, they were so frightened that they didn't dare to speak.
Li Qi looked at Chen Dazhu again and said sternly: "Dazhu, tell me the truth, has anyone ever tasted this soup?"
Chen Dazhu trembled with fright, shook his head and said: "No---no, the soup has just been boiled, Xiao Liuzi was about to taste it, and you came."
Li Qi breathed a sigh of relief, but suddenly his expression tightened and he said, "While the fish is being cooked, are there any dishes that can be brought out?"
Chen Dazhu said: "There are--yes, there seem to be--three hot pots."
"What does it mean? How many are there?"
"There are only three hot pots. Nothing else."
"you---."
Li Qi's eyes were blazing, and he raised his hand, ready to slap Wu Xiaoliu again, but when he saw Wu Xiaoliu's expression as if he had lost his soul, he couldn't do it, and made fists with both hands.
There was a creaking sound, and he said angrily: "Fuck! I was really killed by you guys." Then he said again: "You guys just stay here, no one moves, put your hands behind your back, if anyone moves...
Soon, I will ask him to go to the street to beg for food." As he said that, he rushed out.
The others quickly put their hands behind their backs and really didn't dare to move.
"Xiaoyu, Xiaoyu."
As soon as Li Qi came to the hall, he shouted loudly.
Seeing Li Qi's anxious expression, Xiaoyu hurriedly walked down from the second floor and asked, "Brother Li, what's the matter?"
Li Qi asked: "Whose tables ordered the three hot pots just brought out?"
Xiaoyu said oh, pondered for a moment, and then said: "Those are the three tables." As she spoke, she pointed to the two tables on the left against the wall. Then she pointed to the innermost table in the middle.
Li Qi glanced at the three tables and saw that there was nothing unusual. He felt a little relieved and simply ordered: "You should tell them not to eat right away." After that, he walked closer to the middle table and apologized.
He smiled and said, "Excuse me, guests. Due to a mistake in our kitchen, we missed a few seasonings. Now we have to take back this hot pot. We are very sorry for this."
These are all old customers of Zuixianju. One of them smiled and said: "Master Li, you are too unconventional. Our food is not much different. It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter."
The others nodded in agreement.
Li Qi added: "You guys don't know. We at Zuixianju have always strived to achieve perfection. This is why everyone is willing to come to Zuixianju for dinner. Li is very grateful for your tolerance. But this
After all, the reputation of our Zuixianju is at stake, so we will act according to the rules. In order to make up for our mistakes, I will ask someone to compensate everyone for their money later. Let me express my apology."
Several people heard what he said and saw that there was money to be paid, so they didn't say anything more.
Li Qi immediately called several bartenders over, took away all the dishes, cups, and chopsticks on the table, and specifically told them where to put these things. Then he immediately took back all the dishes from the other two tables, and told them,
Asking them to wait a moment, the kitchen would be redone for them immediately. After everything was ordered, he turned around and returned to the kitchen.
"Who made that fish just now?" Li Qi's voice was not loud, but everyone could hear the overwhelming anger in it.
"Brother Li --- it's --- it's me." Wu Xiaoliu also reacted at this time and had already burst into tears. He still doesn't know what mistake he made.
"I will settle this account with you later."
Li Qi suppressed the anger in his heart, glanced at everyone, and said: "Other than Liuzi, who else has touched this fish?"
"And I."
"And I."
Chen Xiaozhu and a young apprentice of Wu Xiaoliu stood up.
Li Qi nodded and asked again: "Did you handle this fish on the chopping board?"
Wu Xiaoliu pointed to the chopping board on the side and said: "That's it - right here."
Li Qi looked at the chopping board and saw some seasonings and other materials placed around him. He felt a headache. He had not seen with his own eyes how Wu Xiaoliu cooked the food. He tapped his forehead and thought for a while, then said:
"Dazhu, please immediately ask someone to boil a few pots of hot water."
"yes."
Li Qi put on his gloves and used a spoon to randomly scoop some fish meat into the pot of soup. He looked at it and his expression became unusually solemn. He carefully covered the pot of soup with the lid and took it down. He took a picture.
He patted his forehead and pointed at one person and said: "You go to the backyard and light a fire immediately." Then he pointed to a few people and said: "You guys immediately put all the seasonings on this chopping board into cloth bags, sealed them, and are ready to take them.
The backyard was burned down, and all the food and utensils were carefully washed with hot water by me, and the utensils were boiled in boiling water for three hours."
After hearing this, everyone was shocked. Wu Xiaoliu even broke out in a cold sweat. He had already realized that he might have made an unforgivable mistake.
At this time, Wu Furong suddenly walked in. Seeing that the whole kitchen was in a mess, he asked in confusion: "Master Li, what happened?"
Li Qi had a wry smile on his face and said, "Uncle Wu, it seems we have to close down for the whole afternoon today."
"What?"
Wu Furong was shocked and said: "Why is this?"
Li Qi pinched his forehead and said, "Have you ever heard of puffer fish?"
Wu Furong was stunned for a moment and said: "This old man has heard of it. It is said that this puffer fish is poisonous and cannot be eaten, but he has never seen it."
He has never seen it, let alone Wu Xiaoliu and the others. In fact, humans have known that this pufferfish is poisonous for a long time. However, due to insufficient knowledge nowadays, and there are many kinds of puffer fish, if it is not for those experienced cooks or fishermen,
Very few people know about it.
"It's not just poisonous. Did you know that even a drop of toxins in puffer fish can kill people?" Li Qi made a gesture.
Regarding the pufferfish, many people in later generations thought it was a puffer fish. In fact, this view was wrong. In later generations, there has been a clear distinction. The puffer fish belongs to the class Fish, and some species contain highly toxic substances. The name is tetrodotoxin, and pufferfish
It is the general name for freshwater dolphins in the class Mammalia. There are white-finned dolphins, etc.; they mainly live in rivers, and their abdominal organs are non-toxic. Dolphins are not called "dolphin fish" because they are not fish.
Wu Furong was horrified and said with confusion on his face: "But what does this puffer fish have to do with us?"
Li Qi glanced at Wu Xiaoliu and hummed: "Just now, this bastard got a puffer fish from nowhere and prepared to cook it. Fortunately, I arrived in time, otherwise his little life would have been handed down here.
Already."
After hearing this, Wu Xiaoliu's legs went weak and he almost fell to his knees on the ground. If it was really what Li Qi said, then he had really turned around just now.
Wu Furong was frightened and frightened when he heard that. He went into an explosive state. He picked up a rolling pin and rushed towards Wu Xiaoliu, cursing: "I will beat you to death today, you do not know how to live or die, that brat."
Li Qi quickly held Wu Furong back and said, "Uncle Wu. He is full of toxins now. You'd better not touch him."
When Wu Furong heard this, he immediately stopped and glared at Wu Xiaoliu fiercely. He said, "I'll settle the score with you later."
Wu Xiaoliu was so frightened at this time that he could still hear Wu Furong's angry curses.
Li Qi sighed and said: "It's a pity that I didn't see how they cooked the pufferfish. I'm afraid they accidentally put the pufferfish toxin on other ingredients. When the guests eat it, they may die."
Yeah, this is a matter of life and death, so we can't be careless, so I plan to do a big cleanup in the kitchen, and I might not be able to cook this afternoon."
Wu Furong nodded vigorously and said: "Yes, yes, yes, you should do this, you should do this."
Li Qi sighed again and suddenly thought about where this puffer fish came from? He immediately asked: "Liu Zi, where did your puffer fish come from?"
Wu Xiaoliu still didn't respond. Wu Furong shouted angrily: "You brat, stop pretending to be dead here and answer Master Li's words quickly."
Wu Xiaoliu was awakened by Wu Furong's voice. Tears fell down and he cried: "Brother Li, you can't blame me. I am innocent. A customer gave it to us and asked us to help him."
The cook, I--I didn't know that fish was poisonous, I--wuwuwu."
Because no one in many common people's homes can cook today, they are used to eating in restaurants, so they usually get some delicacies from the mountains and seas, and they also bring them to the restaurant and pay some wages to the restaurant's chefs to help them cook.
"guest?"
Li Qi frowned. This matter is not related to Wang Xuanen, right? He ordered: "You guys go to the backyard immediately and change your clothes." Then he called the little cook and gave him some instructions in his ear.
sentence, and then turned around and went out.
Wu Furong also followed closely.
Li Qi and Wu Furong came to the hall and immediately called Xiaoyu over and said: "Xiaoyu, you will tell the guests later that due to some problems with the stove in the kitchen, we will be closed for half a day this afternoon."
Xiaoyu was shocked and said: "What happened?"
"I'll talk to you about this later."
Li Qi glanced at it and asked, "I heard that a guest just brought a fish and asked us to help him cook it."
Xiaoyu frowned slightly and said, "It seems that there is such a thing."
"Where is that man sitting now?"
Xiaoyu looked around and suddenly pointed to a table sitting in the corner and said, "Hey, that's that person."
Li Qi looked in the direction she pointed, and saw a young man of about twenty years old sitting at the table. He was wearing a gray gown, with a dignified appearance, a majestic body, sword-shaped eyebrows and starry eyes, and a broad chest, especially those eyes.
, bright and shining, the light shines on the cold stars, and the eyebrows seem to contain an aura of great righteousness. In addition, there is a spear and a baggage on the table.
