(I envy Mom who has two sons. Thanks for the 500 starting coin reward. Well, next time I eat pan noodles, I will add more chicken necks. It’s considered Mom!)
Lin Chou could not understand Xue Zhen's thoughts, and similarly, Xue Zhen could not see clearly what Lin Chou wanted.
There is an old saying that I don’t know whether to say something or not. It is nothing more than the same thing.
Lin Chou thought to himself that the difference between brother and Xue Papi was like the life of a man and a guinea fowl.
After a person dies, he can only be called dead.
Guinea fowl is amazing. After it dies, it can be called salt-baked chicken, white-chopped chicken, hand-shredded chicken, or big plate chicken.
This guy's understanding of the course of eschatological philosophy is really thorough and deep... I admire him, I admire him!
Wei Tianxing felt like he was maintaining his masterly demeanor and his face was stiff. Seeing Lin Chou shaking his head there and not knowing what he was thinking, he said angrily, "Lin Chou, in the third round, it's your turn to choose the dishes for the competition."
"Ah, ah? What did you say... Oh, ok, let's choose the dishes!"
Wei Tianxing's eyes almost rolled out of his head. You kid, are you distracted at this time??
"Just choose Greedy Lotus Seed!"
"puff!"
Ye Zhong squirted out a sip of tea, "Greedy lotus seeds? Are you kidding? Why don't you fry a few kilograms of melon seeds and let's eat and chat together?"
Everyone burst into laughter, and it was no wonder that Lieutenant General Ye had such a contemptuous tone.
Strictly speaking, Greedy Lotus Seeds is not a dish at all. It only tests the chef's control over the heat and the basic skill of using a spoon.
For a master herbal chef like Xue Zhen, getting greedy lotus seeds in his hands is no more difficult than frying melon seeds.
It's just that the greedy lotus seeds are of high value and don't trust others to borrow them.
Greedy Lotus Seeds grow on high cliffs by the waterside. They are naturally heavy as refined iron and have vein-like vertical stripes on their surface. They nourish the heart and kidneys and benefit essence and blood. They are a third-level magic plant.
Each lotus cell contains twelve lotus seeds, which have miraculous effects when eaten together. It is an indispensable medicinal diet for the evolutionists in Base City who want to break through the stages of retreat.
Greedy lotus seeds are heavy and solid, harder than steel, but after being fried, they return to their original state and become lush and green, accompanied by a strange fragrance that can be smelled from three miles away.
Greedy lotus seed frying is an extreme test of the chef's basic skills. Controlling the heat and finesse are indispensable. If you are not careful, the lotus seeds will be burnt into carbon, and the effect will be lost.
Xue Zhen looked at Lin Chou quietly and whispered, "Little friend Lin, do you know that your grandfather and I were the only two people in Jiushan Palace who were qualified to fry greedy lotus seeds?"
"Are you trying to stimulate me with this? Haha... I will not show mercy. If you dare to harm me, Yang'er, you must be prepared to pay with blood. Since Yang'er fell on your colorful snake wine
, after the competition, you will drink a jar of this wine by yourself, and your life or death will be determined by your fate!"
When Leng Han heard this, he stood up suddenly.
She had tried the power of three-color snake wine, and then thinking about Xue Mingyang's tragic situation, all fools knew what would happen if Lin Chou, a first-order evolver, drank it. It would kill Lin Chou!
Wei Qingyu stopped Leng Han with a sweet smile, "Hey, you are so popular, Xiao Bingcubi, do you want the hundreds of people present to see Brother Chou's joke?"
Leng Han thought for a while and sat down with a cold face.
"Ha..." Lin Chou sneered, "Mr. Xue is quite irritable in his old age!"
Xue Zhen glanced briefly and saw that Lianzi had been brought to the dining table by the waiter from Jiushan Palace, "Now, I want to change the pots. Go and get the two pots I have standing at the back door of the kitchen!"
This was an opportunity to interfere with the other party. The waiter quickly took out two pots and replaced the original two.
"Hey, Uncle Xue, are these two pots used to kill pigs and stew meat?"
"Is this a pot? Is this a bathtub?"
"Tsk, tsk, whatever it takes!"
As we all know, as a cook, you can only be comfortable using familiar cooking utensils. If you change to an unfamiliar environment, your cooking skills may be abnormal.
Practice makes perfect, so when you switch to those two super large pots, the heat, the spoon, and the technique all become problems, and everything needs to be adapted again.
For a master herbalist like Xue Zhen, this method is obviously a bit low-level, but it is still within the rules, and no one raised any objection.
Xue Zhen said, "These two special iron pots are extremely strong. They were used by your grandfather and I when we practiced basic skills. The mouth of the pot is 80 centimeters wide and weighs 16 kilograms. They have been wiped with lotus leaf cloth for more than sixty years. They have never been wiped.
Dip it in water and use it to stir-fry greedy lotus seeds, perfect!"
Everyone suddenly realized that there is still such a story? But the pot has not been washed with water for sixty years. How serious is Lao Xue's obsessive-compulsive disorder?
"Twelve of Greedy Lotus Seeds can be eaten together to double the potency of medicine. The number of Greedy Lotus Seeds in Jiushan Palace is seventy-two per plate, which is in harmony with the way of heaven..."
Xue Zhen counted seventy-two lotus seeds from his bag and was about to put them in the pot.
Lin Chou said, "Wait a minute, I have a request."
Xue Guangyuan said, "My dear friend, please speak."
"Isn't it a bit of a waste to only fry 72 lotus seeds in such a big pot?" Lin Chou suddenly looked back at Xue Zhen and smiled, "How about adding more!"
Xue Zhen said coldly, "How much does Xiaoyou Lin want to add?"
"Fill it up!"
Xue Zhen was stunned, add...refill??
That day, I only picked twelve lotus seeds from a lotus house, which weighed dozens or hundreds of kilograms. Each lotus seed was only the size of a bean. How much would this special large wok with a diameter of 80 centimeters weigh if it was filled up?
??
The five people at the judging table looked at each other, but they could only nod in agreement.
Wei Tianxing couldn't help but murmur in his heart, wouldn't this little guy named Lin want to defraud the Xue family of a large sum of money and run away when he saw that he couldn't win?
Xue Zhen squeezed out a few words through his teeth, "Go find it!"
The waiter hurried away, probably to take a look at the Jiushan Palace food store. Six people, sweating profusely, took out a bag and said, "Master, there is only so much left."
Xue Zhen felt a little bitter. With just two bags, let alone filling them up, even half a pot might not be enough.
How fresh! This is a comprehensive demonstration of how scarce the Xue family’s ingredients are in front of everyone??
"Hey, the majestic Jiushan Palace, can't even get two pots of lotus seeds together?" Huang Dashan stepped on the stool, waving the wine bottle and sarcastically said.
Xue Mingfang finally uttered unbearable foul language to this rough-faced guy, "You can't stand talking without hurting your back. Greedy lotus seeds are a third-level ingredient. They are extremely rare and sell for a high price. You can't find such a number of greedy lotus seeds in the entire Mingguang City."
!”
Huang Dashan frowned and shouted, "Hey, little chick from the Xue family, are you talking to your Grandpa Dashan? What if I can find more lotus seeds than your Xue family? Kneel down and kowtow three times to me.
Say 'Grandpa Dashan, I was wrong, I am a descendant of Dashan'?!"
"...I just don't know what to say! Huh!" Xue Ming said that he was Shan Ye's opponent, and his eyes turned blue with anger.
