A day passed, and the jar of wine that was simmering Buddha Jumps Over the Wall could not stop at night. Someone had to watch it here. Every once in a while, the seasoning made by Ye Chui using Shaoxing Huadiao and other ingredients had to be put into the jar of wine. So Ye Chui and Tian Xiaodu agreed to take turns watching here.
There was a small hotel nearby, and Ye Chui booked a room in the hotel so that the two could take turns to rest.
They fought hard for this dish, and it was obviously necessary because when the two of them were on guard, they discovered many people trying to sneak into the restaurant. If they didn't keep watch, the Buddha Jumps Over the Wall would probably be taken away by someone overnight.
At around eight o'clock in the morning, Ye Chui rubbed his sleepy eyes and came to the outside of the small restaurant. In his hand was a sesame cake he bought from a snack stand near the hotel. Tian Xiaodu had been guarding all night and looked tired. When he saw Ye Chui coming, he immediately stood up, rubbing his eyes.
"A few more groups of people came in the second half of the night, all of whom were planning to steal this dish but were stopped by me." Tian Xiaodu said tiredly, "One group was quite arrogant and almost got into a fight with me... Fortunately, there is a temple nearby, so these people were reasonable and didn't really fight."
"Well, thank you for your hard work." Ye Chui handed him a pancake.
Tian Xiaodu took a bite of the pancake and shook his head: "It's nothing. It's worth it to be able to participate in the preparation of this super dish."
He turned his head to look at the small restaurant and took a deep breath: "Hmm, the fragrance today is even stronger than yesterday's."
"The fragrance will become stronger and stronger." Ye Chui said with a smile. This method of making Buddha Jumps Over the Wall was Ye Chui's original creation, but he knew very well what would happen. Thinking of something, Ye Chui smiled and said, "On the last day, the fragrance of Buddha Jumps Over the Wall will probably be several times stronger than it is now."
"No way, is it really that powerful?" Tian Xiaodu looked surprised.
Ye Chui nodded: "That's how amazing it is. Don't you see how much money and effort we spent on this dish? This is what we deserve... Well, you've been here for half the night and you must be tired now. Go and have a rest."
"Okay, I understand." Tian Xiaodu nodded and walked into the hotel while yawning.
Ye Chui finished two sesame cakes, and ate a bowl of tofu pudding from the small breakfast restaurant next to him. Then he continued to stare at the wine jar. At this time, he glanced at the Zhuangyan Temple in the distance, and a malicious look appeared on his face...
…
The morning class in the Hall of Ten Thousand Buddhas has already begun.
But Mingfeng, who was leading the reading, showed a very annoyed expression, his eyes were almost red - the monks, who should have been full of energy in the early morning, were now dejected and mentally exhausted. Some of them even fell asleep with their legs crossed. None of the rest were in high spirits. The rhythmic chanting sounded soft and weak at this time.
"What are you doing? Didn't you sleep last night? Didn't you have enough to eat? Pay attention!" Mingfeng couldn't help but roared loudly.
"Master, this is not our fault..." a monk couldn't help but say, "The fragrance coming from outside the temple didn't stop all night, and it got even stronger. Who would want to sleep? Not to mention sleeping, few people could even eat the vegetarian meal last night."
"Asshole, don't forget that you are all disciples of Buddha. Bodhisattva sees your actions. How can you practice with such a weak will? " Mingfeng shouted loudly.
"Master, you seem to have dark circles under your eyes. I'm afraid you didn't sleep well last night?" someone whispered.
Ming Feng: “…”
The morning class ended in a state of exhaustion, and the monks came out of the Wanfo Temple yawning. According to the temple's schedule, they went to have breakfast after the morning class. In the past, the monks were very excited and excited at this time, but now everyone felt very reluctant. The vegetarian food in the temple cannot be said to be bad, but under the influence of this rich aroma, it was almost like bran and vegetables. Who could still eat it
"Hui Xuan, Hui Yin, the two of you go and check what's going on. Who is cooking this delicious food outside..." Ming Feng said and quickly changed his words, "Oh, no, it's not delicious food, it's sinful food!"
"Yes, Master!" Huixuan and Huiyin were two of the monks who looked quite strong. Upon hearing what the master said, they hurriedly agreed and then walked out of the temple with murderous intent.
Outside the temple, after a night of simmering, the ingredients in the wine jar had turned into residue, and all the essence had been completely integrated into the thick soup. Ye Chui was using a fine funnel to scoop out the residue of the ingredients from the wine jar bit by bit.
These residues naturally do not look good, but even so, they are still a rare delicacy - after all, they are the residues left over from various meat products and rare ingredients such as shark fins, shark lips, and abalone, and the deliciousness of them is also rare.
The residue is grayish yellow in color and has been cooked thoroughly. It is a good thing to mix with rice.
Outside the small restaurant, a group of people gathered eagerly waiting to taste the leftovers.
Last night, the crowd outside the small restaurant stayed for a long time, so Ye Chui told them that the leftovers in the Buddha Jumps Over the Wall would be replaced in the morning, and if they wanted, they could be the first to taste the leftovers.
Of course, this part of the residue also has to be charged. After all, this is not the residue of ordinary things, and the price is quite high. But even so, it did not stop the enthusiasm of these people, and they came here on time early in the morning.
The residue was scooped into a large basin. At this time, only a small part of the soup in the wine jar was left. However, this little soup was the most precious - even if someone offered 100,000 yuan to exchange for this soup, Ye Chui would not exchange it!
Ye Chui first moved a large basin of residue outside, which immediately caused a commotion among the people outside.
The appearance of the residue was certainly not good-looking, but during that night everyone was attracted by the fragrance of Buddha Jumps Over the Wall. Even the residue could drive people crazy.
"Boss, please help me sell these things first." Ye Chui saw the owner of the small restaurant, Chen Laosan, standing in the crowd, and immediately said with a smile, "I'll give you an extra 500 yuan a day."
Chen Laosan had originally come here just to watch the fun, and he had long been craving for this Buddha Jumps Over the Wall. When he heard that there was such a good thing, he immediately nodded: "Okay, okay, but how do you want to set the price for this thing?"
"This..." Ye Chui looked around at the people around him. There were too many people here. If it was too cheap, there wouldn't be enough leftovers to grab. So Ye Chui said with a bit of a black heart, "Three hundred yuan for a bowl..."
"I want a bowl for three hundred yuan!"
"I want two bowls. Even though this is just leftovers, it's so fragrant and made with so many rare ingredients. Three hundred yuan isn't expensive at all!"
"That's true, give me a bowl too!"
"I want three bowls!"
Ye Chui: “…”
Please don't be like this, this is just leftovers...
At Chen Laosan's call, everyone began to line up consciously. Chen Laosan used the bowls in the restaurant to scoop up the leftovers, three scoops per bowl. People from several nearby shops even brought over the freshly steamed buns and freshly cooked rice from their shops and sold them together with the Buddha Jumps Over the Wall leftovers. There was an indescribable prosperous scene outside the small restaurant.
Ye Chui sighed as he prepared the second batch of ingredients for Buddha Jumps Over the Wall in the small restaurant - a total of three batches of ingredients would be needed to make the perfect Buddha Jumps Over the Wall!
Yesterday, all the ingredients had been cleaned and placed in the refrigerator of the restaurant. Ye Chui only needed to do some simple processing before putting them back into the wine jar. However, when he was cooking, there was a sudden noise outside the restaurant, as if someone was arguing.
Ye Chui was curious and immediately walked out of the restaurant to look outside. Then he saw two sturdy monks arguing with several diners. Ye Chui was quite familiar with these two monks. It was these monks who drove him out when he went to Zhuangyan Temple two days ago.
"It's you!" Seeing Ye Chui coming out of the restaurant, Hui Xuan, one of the two monks, immediately shouted. Of course, he still remembered Ye Chui, "You are so rude. You are disturbing the peace and quiet by cooking meat outside the temple. You have offended the Buddha. The Buddha will blame you when the time comes..."
"hehe."
Ye Chui couldn't help but laugh. Hui Xuan spoke with great righteousness, but his eyes couldn't stop drifting to the large basin beside him. Hui Yin, who was standing next to him, had his eyes fixed on the residue in the basin...
These two are quite greedy.
"It's my fault for disturbing your peace. How about this, I'll treat you two to a meal as compensation?" Ye Chui said with a smile, took a bowl and the rice spoon from Chen Laosan, and started to scoop vegetables into it.
Huixuan said with a righteous look on his face: "We are monks with strong wills. Don't try to tempt me with this delicious food... Hey, put more meat!"
Soon Ye Chui filled a bowl with the delicious leftovers, and then took two steamed buns and handed them to Huixuan.
Huixuan didn't even remember his position as a monk at this time. He just squatted on the ground, took the chopsticks and started eating the steamed bun.
Hui Yin, who was standing next to him, looked anxious and said, "What about me? What about me?"
"Wait a moment." Ye Chui smiled and served Hui Yin another bowl and gave him two steamed buns. Hui Yin then squatted on the ground and started eating.
At this time, they probably have already forgotten what they came here for...
The tourists around were sweating profusely. The monk's eating posture was so messy... It was so greedy.
Seeing the other monk eating with such delicious taste, Ye Chui suddenly had an idea: "The aroma of Buddha Jumps Over the Wall has been wafting all night. I don't know how greedy Weiwei and Auntie in the temple must be. I will quickly make a few boxed lunches for these two monks to take back later." (~^~)
