Outside Xianyang City, a row of silver-armored cavalry stood in uniform, with their horses tied together, their swords and halberds held together, and their yellow flags waving.
The first person is a heroic young man, with deep and far-reaching eyebrows slanted into his temples, and calm and deep eyes with no ambitions! Holding a bright silver spear upside down, the black cloak is covered with blue clothes, flying with the wind.
Sitting down on the red rabbit and BMW, the eyes are also majestic and majestic.
What a young man in fresh clothes and angry horses!
This person is none other than Sheng Yaoshan, the son of the Prime Minister of the current dynasty, the current Wukui, and the famous "Liu Ru Gongzi" in Kyoto!
"General Sheng, stay safe and sound!" Zhao Jing cupped his hands and said.
On that day, Sheng Yaoshan led his troops to wipe out the horse bandits, and had a relationship with Zhao Jingyi once.
"Thanks to Mr. Zhao's concern, I have been ordered to escort Mr. Songtao, and I am here to let you know!" Sheng Yaoshan reined in his horse, his handsome face even more heroic!
"General Sheng is working hard, Xianyang is up and down, always waiting for Mr. Songtao!" Zhao Jing said with a smile.
"That's great!" Sheng Yaoshan nodded.
"I don't know Mr. Songtao..." Zhao Jing raised his eyes and looked behind Sheng Yaoshan. He saw a line of elite soldiers, but he didn't see any carriages, not even a sedan chair.
"Lord Zhao, just send someone here later. Mr. Songtao never likes ostentation. Even when the sun came out of the imperial city, I just followed from a distance. I didn't dare to have any close attendants, lest you get angry! Now, Mr. It's the outskirts of the city, so I'll hurry up and report." Sheng Yaoshan raised his lips slightly, turned around and rode away.
Under the bright sunshine, Sheng Yaoshan exuded a kind of free-spirited and chivalrous spirit all over his body, and the bright silver spear emitted an unusually dazzling brilliance.
"Come on, hurry up and notify the officials of all sizes in the city, and come to the city gate to welcome you quickly! Go tell Zuixianlou and prepare the banquet, Mr. Songtao will be there immediately!" Zhao Jingyi ordered the left and right.
"Obey!"
It was lunch time, and the business of Zuixianlou was particularly good today, not to mention the front hall, even the private room was overcrowded.
"Quick, quick, don't eat! Get out!" Luo Butou led the team, and once they entered the gate of Zuixian Tower, they started to yell.
"Hey! Boss Luo, what brought you here?" Shopkeeper Li greeted him.
"Shopkeeper Li, Mr. Songtao will be here right away. Mr. Zhao sent me to clean up the Zuixian Tower, and no one else is allowed to come and go! Oh, by the way, where is Chef Wen? I'll go find him!" Catcher Luo didn't have time Said, went straight to the back kitchen.
The other subordinates were divided into several groups, those who went upstairs went upstairs, and those who chased away the passengers. Guests of all colors left the table one after another, shaking their heads, sighing, and cursing, all in chaos!
Shopkeeper Li complained again and again, "This... I haven't paid for this yet!"
"Hurry up and inform Master Qiao that the distinguished guest will arrive soon!" Shopkeeper Li hurriedly dispatched a man to Master Qiao's house!
"Chef Wen, Chef Wen!" Catcher Luo yelled as soon as he entered the back kitchen.
"Captain Luo, what's the matter? There are a lot of guests today, and the waiting meeting is over. I'll cook some delicious dishes for you!" Wen Shouzheng kept his hands on.
"Chef Wen, there are no other guests in Zuixianlou today. Mr. Zhao asked me to inform you that Mr. Songtao will be here soon! You should be ready!" After Luo Butou explained, he turned and left, and ran again with his subordinates. went elsewhere.
"What! So fast! Rou'er, Stone! Come here, everyone!" Wen Shouzheng was shocked when he heard this!
Fortunately, I have been preparing for it recently. The menu and ingredients are all ready-made. Right now, as long as everyone divides the work and completes their tasks, they can deal with it.
Such a big man dare not slack off in the slightest!
Chef Tang and Chef Zheng took Yuanzi and Ergou to work on cooking, and Chef Zhang took Xiao Wu to make pasta for the first time.
Rou Rou and Fang Dashi followed Wen Shouzheng, quietly listening to Wen Shouzheng's division of labor.
"Stone, you chop the vegetables; Rou'er, prepare the ingredients with me!
Fang Dashi raised the knife in his hand, "swish, swipe, swipe" only heard the sound of the knife, and various ingredients, in the form of silk, strips, slices, and dices, were spread out in colorful order!
"Father, are these sea cucumbers and shark's fins for Mr. Songtao?" Rourou asked, pointing to two large porcelain bowls.
One white and one black in the bowl are Yipin's Wings and Plum Blossom Ginseng prepared in advance.
"That's right, Rou'er, these are the two main dishes for today! Come on, you stand here and learn from Dad, let's make this dry roast first!" Wen Shouzheng said.
Gentle and serious standing next to study.
Shark's fin is precious, so when cooking, chefs usually only take a small amount to show off their skills.
I saw that Wen Shouzheng took a delicate purple sand carving stove, lit a red candle in it, and took an elegant purple sand bowl and placed it on it. The soft candlelight dances in the furnace through the hollow pattern, and the slight heat around the purple sand bowl is like blue smoke.
Gentle was intoxicated for a moment, "Father, is this the vessel for making shark's fin later?"
"Exactly, this shark's fin is a rarity second only to Tianjiu's fin. To taste this kind of shark's fin, it is natural to take care of the three senses of diners. It is elegant in appearance, fragrant in taste, and fresh in mouth. It is the so-called delicious food. Now in the cold winter, such a vessel can also keep warm, so even if diners eat it to the end, it will not be cold and the taste will be changed." After Wen Shouzheng finished speaking, he continued to let the red candle slightly heat the purple sand bowl, while he himself Turn around and start cooking shark fin.
"Father, I'll help you clean up the mess!" After Wen Rou said, she rolled up her sleeves and was about to start.
"Silly boy, you can't use iron or copper pots for cooking shark's fin, otherwise the dishes will be stained and the whole plate will be damaged! Use ceramics to cook!" Wen Shouzheng smiled, and took an amphorae from the cabinet , Let Wen Gentle clean it carefully, and check it carefully until it is confirmed that there is no oil, alkali, salt and other things in the pot, then put it on the stove!
Wen Shouzheng carefully took out the washed shark's fin, put it in a steaming bowl, added mountain spring water, steamed it in a bamboo drawer, and after about half an hour, took it out of the cage and filtered the water.
"Rou'er, get some clear soup!" Wen Shouzheng pointed with a big hand, tenderly understanding.
In a soup pot next to it, what has been simmering all day long is the essence of the soup that will come in handy today—clear soup!
It is stewed with high-quality Chai chicken, and all impurities and oil stars are removed, leaving only a pure soup as clear as water.
Rourou took a bowl of clear soup, Wen Shouzheng raised his finger to signal Wenrou to pour the soup into the pottery pot just prepared, put the steamed shark's fin in it, add a little cooking wine, and cook a cup of tea on low heat ,fish out.
"Rou'er, come here, remove the meat and bone residue from this shark's fin. This is a bamboo stick, you should pick it gently, and keep the shark's fin neat so as not to affect the beauty of the finished dish. After processing, remember to use spring water to clean it again and again. Rinse off the bone residue and sand, and rinse off the fishy smell." Wen Shouzheng instructed, while taking the chicken, duck, pork, and ham slices cut by Fang Dashi, and putting them into another oil pan to stir-fry, while adding cooking wine, Soy sauce, salt, green onion, ginger and broth are delicious, and they are cooked into a pot of fragrant soup.
After everything was finished, the gentle shark's fin was also cleaned up. Wen Shou was inspecting the properly processed shark's fin and nodded repeatedly.
The father and daughter cooperated tacitly. Wen Shouzheng wrapped the shark's fin with gauze, put it into the cleaned earthenware pot again, added the soup that was just fried, boiled it on a high fire, then changed to a simmer and simmered until the shark's fin was cooked. When the fat and soup are thick, take out the shark’s fin bag, remove the gauze, filter the soup into the pot with a soup sieve, put the shark’s fin in a low heat to collect the juice, and at the same time set another frying pan to stir-fry the washed cabbage, spread it on the purple sand At the bottom of the bowl, put the simmered shark's fin, pour a small spoonful of broth, and it's done!
This dish is yellow in color, bright in wings, soft, fragrant and smooth, and thick in juice. It can really be the first dish in the banquet!
"Father, it smells so good!" Rourou swallowed.
"Father has already made a copy for you, and I'll satisfy your hunger when I'm done working!" Wen Shouzheng said hehe.
At this moment, outside Xianyang City, the city gate opened wide!
In the cold wind, a group of officials, dignitaries and gentry waited eagerly.
