Don't panic in a famine, I live in the mountains with my golden finger

When everyone returned to Hsinchu Village, Xu Yuan had just arrived at the county seat.

Hu Zhanggui rushed to Fumanlou with familiarity. He had been looking forward to it day and night and finally made his wish. When he heard the report from the kitchen, he took such quick steps that he almost bumped into the waiter who was serving the dishes. Fortunately, the waiter reacted in time and quickly changed direction, thus avoiding the accident.

"Old Hu, are you in a hurry to be reincarnated? You are running so fast that my food is almost gone. Really." The guy calmed down and rolled his eyes at the figure running past him.

"Waiter, is my food ready? I'm starving. Serve it quickly or don't serve it at all."

"It's coming, it's coming, right away." When the waiter heard this, he quickly took the same dishes that were going to be taken to another table and directly brought them to the customer who was shouting that he wanted to return the dishes.

Then he quickly returned to the kitchen and started to get busy again.

"Miss Xu, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting. Would you like to come in and sit down?" Hu Zhanggui came hurriedly, afraid of neglecting this God of Wealth, and ordered someone to move the buds from the cart.

"No need, Shopkeeper Hu, we have new goods this time, I wonder if you would like to buy them?" Xu Yuan not only brought sprouts this time, but also brought dried fish that had been dried in the sun these days.

"Miss Xu, is this dried fish?" Hu Zhanggui looked at Xu Yuan taking out a dried fish from the backpack with an ugly expression.

He stammered, "Miss Xu, this fish has a fishy smell. People here rarely eat fish. If we can't handle the fishy smell, it will be a bit difficult for you to dry the fish."

When I made a wish, I found it difficult to deal with the fishy smell of the fish.

Is this difficult?

"Manager Hu, don't worry. My dried fish is marinated with special spices. It doesn't have any fishy smell. If you don't believe me, borrow the kitchen and I'll cook it for you on the spot."

Hu Zhanggui nodded repeatedly. After all, the person who could grow those delicious sprouts must have top-notch skills.

Xu Yuan also brought some chili peppers this time, not many, just a handful. He got up early and picked them from the place where he found wild chili peppers last time. After all, the ones planted in his own vegetable garden have not bloomed yet. He had pulled out a grown one and transplanted it in the vegetable garden before, but due to the rain in those few days, the chili peppers had not taken root yet and wilted, and withered in a few days.

"Chef Yang, the stove over there is empty now, can you borrow it for a while?" Hu Zhanggui came in and looked at Chef Yang who was busy at the side, and asked from behind.

"What are you doing? Can't you see I'm busy? See if anyone is over there. If no one is using it, then you can use it. Why are you asking me? I'm very busy."

"Old Yang, how can you talk like that? I'm helping to scold you, but you make me look like I have a lot of free time." Chef Wang on the other side was not happy about it. He worked hard all day, but when he took a break, he was seen slacking off for a long time.

The people helping out nearby turned a blind eye and a deaf ear.

We didn't even have time to drink a sip of water today, but you at least took a break. We are jealous.

"Okay, you can use your time as you wish. As long as the food is served on time, that's fine."

"Miss Xu, there is an empty stove over here, come over here."

The people in the kitchen looked at a pretty and cold young girl who came in and asked, "Old Hu, when did you recruit such a young girl to work in our kitchen?"

"What are you talking about? These are the distinguished guests who provided us with the sprouts of Fu Man Lou. You guys should be polite. Come on, Miss Xu, ignore them."

Xuyuan nodded and started to act.

"This is dried fish, Lao Hu. If you want to use dried fish to make new dishes, it will damage the reputation of Fu Man Lou. I can't cook this fish well."

"Shut up and look at what Miss Xu is doing."

The people in the kitchen had finally finished preparing dishes for the last few tables of guests and now they were finally free.

I saw Xuyuan take out the dried fish and put it in a basin, then he used a ladle to scoop some hot water to soak it.

While the dried fish was soaking, I took out a few chili peppers from the backpack.

"Girl, what kind of fruit is this?" Chef Yang came forward and asked when he saw the strange thing.

"This is chili pepper. I found it in the mountains. It's a very good condiment, but you may not be used to it at first."

"Oh, can you give me one? Let me see." Xu Yuan nodded and handed it to Chef Yang.

Chef Yang looked at the new thing in his hand and curiously put it to his nose and smelled it. There was a very strange fragrance.

"Miss Xu, we want to see if there is any more." Several waiters and Chef Wang nearby asked curiously.

"I don't have that many belts with me. I'll take out a few and you can take turns looking at them."

Chef Yang was very curious about what it looked like inside, so he broke it in half with his hands.

"Be careful, this is spicy. If you touch it, remember to wash your hands."

Everyone nodded.

Xu Yuan looked at the seasonings that could be used in the kitchen. He flattened, peeled and chopped the garlic, cut the chili pepper, sliced ​​some ginger, and cut some onions for later use.

Take out the soaked dried fish and drain the water. Heat a spoonful of oil over high heat, add the scallion, ginger and chili and stir-fry for a while, then add the dried fish and stir-fry.

A pungent smell spread throughout the kitchen. Those who were not used to the smell were moved to tears and sat on the stools in the backyard.

"I didn't expect the taste to be so strong. I don't know how it will taste, but I'm still a little looking forward to it." Lao Hu sniffed and smelled the aroma.

Chef Yang smelled the aroma and swallowed his saliva for some reason. He picked up the chili he had just broken, pinched a piece and put it in his mouth to taste it.

嘶哈

Incredible.

Chef Yang was so spicy that he wanted to drink some water. He ran to the well, threw down the wooden barrel, pulled up a bucket of water, squatted down, and poured the water into his mouth.

"What's wrong, Lao Yang, why is your face so red?"

"Are you thirsty?"

call

Chef Yang, who had finally gotten over the spiciness, seemed to have a completely new way of developing his taste buds.

"Old Hu, you have a good eye. Miss Xu's chili peppers are not found on the market. They are very rare. People are definitely more interested in rare things. They will definitely attract more distinguished guests."

"Yeah, I've always had a good eye."

Xu Yuan worked for a while and quickly folded and arranged the dishes. The assistant who was watching from the door and not too far away called out to the three people sitting there.

The three of them quickly walked into the kitchen and looked at the dishes on the plates.

It looks very appetizing at first glance.

The three of them quickly picked up a piece with their chopsticks and put it into their mouths. Xu Yuan, who was helping them nearby, also put some on a plate and put it aside so that they could have a taste as well.

There is no reason to only look at delicious food but not eat it.

The flavors of dried fish and chili peppers blend perfectly. The spicy taste of the chili peppers also stimulates the tongue. It was a little spicy the first time, but the more you eat, the more you like it, and you can't stop.

He slowly drank a bowl of water, slurped it up, and took a bite.

This was the first time that Hu Zhangsheng had eaten such delicious food. He savored it carefully and recalled it slowly.

Then reach for the plate and grab a piece...

piece?

Hu Zhanggui looked at the plate with only the chili left, "You two, I only ate one piece, are you guys embarrassed?"

"Whoever picks it up gets to eat it. It all depends on our own ability."

Chef Yang didn't indulge him and took a sip of water to relieve the spiciness.

Shopkeeper Hu looked at the plate on the other side...

No more.

Ugh.
