Chapter 392 Performance at the Truffle Auction
(Thanks to friends who are not perverted wolves, leopards, Ziyan Xiesha, grasshopper tiger, jhjh monthly pass for encouragement)

To be honest, after arriving at Christie's auction site, Liu Heming was still a little excited.

Suzanne also introduced some people to him, some of them are gluttons, and they only choose what they like, no matter what the price is.Some are ingredients agents, and their main business is to collect all kinds of delicious and noble ingredients in the world, and then resell them to high-end restaurants.

After a while, Liu Heming had a large stack of various business cards in his pocket.Although they also knew that Liu Heming's truffles would be handed over to Christie's for auction in the future, they were well informed and knew that Liu Heming had hidden a lot.

Both are businessmen, and Liu Heming can attract the attention of Christie's, especially holding a single auction for his truffles, which has proved to a certain extent that Liu Heming is not easy.

"OK, this is the first truffle auction held by Christie's auction house since its establishment. I am honored to be the host today." Seeing that the time was almost up, Susanna walked to the booth.

"Many friends asked me whether this special auction held this time was hyped for some special reasons. Here I can tell you very seriously that every distinguished guest present today is lucky, Those who can successfully photograph truffles will be even luckier."

"Because you are the first batch of people in the world to taste this truffle. Now I can tell you that the shelf life of this truffle in a dry environment at room temperature is fifteen days. If you store it in the refrigerator, it will The freshness period can reach 25 days. If it is vacuum-frozen, its freshness period can reach 45 days, maybe even longer."

"These are the masters of our cultivation of these truffles. Mr. Dexter came to the conclusion after careful experiments. Next, we invite Mr. Dexter and his lovely daughter Alex."

After Suzanne finished speaking, the lights on the stage shone on to Liu Heming's family sitting in the front row.Liu Heming also stood up and made a gesture, then took Alex's little hand and walked up the stage.

Now Alex is not wearing a princess dress, but a little chef outfit, and he will cook for everyone on the spot in a while.

"Hi everyone." Liu Heming stood by the microphone and said after carrying his daughter onto the high stool that had been prepared earlier.

"Actually, even I didn't expect these truffles to taste so good, even if I only ate these truffles that I cultivated myself."

"What Suzanne just said about the shelf life of truffles has been added to the bidding contract. So if the truffles you take out don't reach the expected shelf life, then congratulations, you've earned it. You will get three times the compensation, although I know that everyone here will not value such a small amount of money."

"Today I would also like to thank my good friend, Congressman Ball from Montana, who also came to participate in this auction." Liu Heming waved in the direction where Ball was.

Ball also stood up at the right time and nodded to everyone.

When Liu Heming said those words, the people below didn't care much about him.No matter how you say it, everyone is here for truffles.But now that the congressman from Montana actually came to give him a platform, the taste of this matter is different.

"It's not a long time since I came to the United States to invest. Bauer attaches great importance to the development of agriculture and animal husbandry in Montana. After learning that I want to cultivate higher standards of agricultural and animal husbandry products, I have been working with me for a long time. The time spent talking gave me great encouragement." Liu Heming continued.

He didn't want to talk too much, but if he introduced Ball and praised him, it would be a win-win situation.Anyway, others don't know the real relationship between themselves and Bauer, so they can sell it well to Bauer.

"Dad, when will you make the steak?" Liu Heming wanted to say more, but Alex beside him couldn't do it anymore.

People are just waiting to show their talents, but you are still talking and talking, it's so boring.

"Okay, let's make steak, pasta, and thick soup." Liu Heming said while stroking his daughter's hair.

The girl has spoken, so she must carry it out.He does have some things to say, to mention his SUSDA planting plan, but now he can only put it in his stomach.

The dining car was pushed up, which is also different from previous auctions.No ingredients have ever been auctioned at Christie's, let alone cooked on-site.

"Bauer, come and help me choose two truffles, one white truffle and one black truffle." Liu Heming said to Bauer.

"Haha, do you really want me to help you choose?" Ball stood up and said with a smile.

Liu Heming nodded.

Bauer was also polite, walked to the booth above, put on his gloves, and directly helped choose two.He is also very interesting. After choosing the truffles, he did not go back to his seat, but continued to help on stage.

Today the protagonist of the chef is Alex, and Liu Heming is the assistant cook.

The little guy put the spaghetti that had been cut into the bag directly into the cauldron. When putting it in, he gently twisted it with his little hand, and the spaghetti obediently leaned against the side of the pot.

Then the little guy started making sauces in the pot next to him, some of which Liu Heming put in for her, and some added by the little guy himself.Every step is very serious and methodical.

"Sorry, I have to interrupt." At this moment, Suzanne came up from the side again.

"As of the current statistics, more than 8 people around the world have watched our auction. One of the bidding buyers left us a message, asking if the pasta made by Alex can also be auctioned .”

"Sister Suzanne, Dad said that the food made by Alex can't be sold in the future." After hearing her words, the little guy raised his head and said.

"Dad said that those people like Alex, it should be Alex who sends food to everyone, and can't collect money from everyone. Dad, if you don't collect money, it's not a sale, right?"

After the little guy finished speaking, he turned his head and asked Liu Heming for confirmation.

Liu Heming could only smile and nod.This is what I usually say when I am teasing and playing with my daughter, but I didn't expect the little guy to hear it.

"Dad, hurry up, take out the pasta quickly, it's just right now." The little guy looked at the pot, and then said hastily.

Liu Heming followed the instructions and scooped up all the cooked pasta into a big basin.The sauce with black truffle that was boiling on the side was also ready at this time, and then poured it directly into the basin, stirred it casually with chopsticks, and then started to put it in a small plate.

In fact, not many people participated in the auction today, not more than 30 people.

After all, today is only an auction of truffles, not a sensational art collection. Many people still chose telephone bidding and online bidding.

With the help of the staff, the well-filled small plates were distributed to the people below.Liu Heming and Alex cooked a little too much, and the rest was not wasted, and was directly distributed to the staff here.

This is really the most special auction in the history of Christie's auction house. The people sitting in front of the computer are very curious to watch these people try it on the spot.The quality of the truffle can be judged by the micro-expressions on their faces.

The only ones who are not worried are Susanna and Liu Heming and the others. Susanna has already tasted it, but Liu Heming and the others are too lazy to eat.

These people can be regarded as professionals in the catering industry. They are either gluttonous customers or food purchasers. If they don't have this ability, they are all incompetent.

But even they can't help but nod now, the quality of this black truffle is impeccable.Even if the family grows a bit headstrong and insists on growing it on the ground, but the taste of the family is not bad, it is really good.

Liu Heming and Alex were not idle here, but started frying steak and cutting eggs.

There are still a lot of people, and today the little guy is coming to be the chef. How can there be so much time for them to fry steaks.Liu Heming was worried that his daughter would be exhausted, so he just fried some casually, and then it would be fine.These fried eggs are much easier to make. Anyway, even if Alex does it, it is as rough as him.

It was cooked much faster than pasta, and then cut into small pieces of steak and eggs, and put them on small plates for the people on site to taste.

Aside from the fact that someone as small as Alex can cook such exquisite food for everyone, the spaghetti just now has brought surprises to everyone, and now the steak and fried eggs have brought surprises to everyone as well. Not small.

From the taste, they can tell whether it is steak or eggs, they are all ordinary.But with such ordinary ingredients, the addition of crushed white truffles also improved their taste to several levels.

Now they no longer have any doubts in their hearts, no matter what the price of today's truffles, they must get some.This truffle is not only delicious, but also a gimmick.

As Suzanne said, although these truffles look familiar to everyone, they can be regarded as ingredients that have appeared for the first time in this world.Who have you ever heard of truffles growing in the ground?
And now this season is not the season for truffles to be on the market. Now if it is posted in restaurants that there are fresh truffles available, or such a strange truffle, what kind of publicity effect will it have?
They are looking forward to the next auction, but the father and daughter in front of the booth are a bit out of cooperation.The father and daughter got busy again, Liu Heming was frying steak, of course it was steak in sections, and Alex was also frying eggs very carefully on the side.

When they finished their work, one of them came down from the stage with the steak and the other with the fried eggs, and delivered them to Sasha.

After seeing this scene on a big screen in a certain bar, Nina sighed depressingly in her heart, "These two really got together behind their backs."
