The Fake Little Master of Food Halberd

Chapter 102 The Strange Old Man

"Old noodles? The steamed buns in our store are indeed fermented with centuries-old noodles. How about it? What stuffing do you want to buy?"

In a steamed bun shop that seems to be turning a new year every year, the owner is a clean-shaven middle-aged man with small eyes, wearing a spotless white chef uniform and a white half-length apron on his lower body, facing Liu Maoxing three People, introduced their own steamed buns.

However, Liu Maoxing was obviously not interested in this, and asked directly: "We want to buy your century-old noodles, can we?"

"Huh? Buying old noodles? No way!" The boss froze for a moment and then flatly refused.

"Don't refuse in such a hurry! How about 100 million yen?" Alice said bluntly.

The boss struggled a bit, but still said, "No way!"

"Have you ever heard of Yuanyue Academy? He is Erina's boyfriend, God's Tongue! If you sell us a piece of old noodles, then let him ask Erina to try it for you ten times, okay?" Ai Li Silk seduced.

"Huh?" Liu Maoxing glanced at her in amazement, but just as she showed her astonishment, Alice's hand wrapped around her back and twisted the soft flesh of her waist 180 degrees...

"No, I don't know how to sell old noodles." The boss still shook his head.

Seeing the boss's resolute attitude, Liu Maoxing stopped Alice who wanted to say more: "Forget it, don't force her, let's go to the next one."

"It's already 06:30! Wait until the store is closed, and the fermentation of old noodles needs to be prepared in advance. If this continues like this, what will we do for tomorrow's game? We haven't even bought a piece of old noodles yet. !” Alice said anxiously.

"Competition? Are you talking about the 'Seafood Pastry Contest'? Wait, you are Liu Maoxing? Your partner is... eh? There seems to be some difference between the Black Wood Field and the competition?" The boss uncle suddenly said, it seems He also paid attention to this game.

"That's right, it's me! I want to buy your old noodles because they will be used in the finals tomorrow." Liu Maoxing raised some hopes again.

"If you want to participate in the competition, it's not... um? Sure enough, it's still not possible!" The boss reversed his tone with some struggles.

Liu Maoxing didn't say anything more, but Alice couldn't help but the veins on the top of her head twitched, and she said angrily, "Huh? You're provocative, right? You even pretended to sell it to us!"

As Alice said, she tore off the turban on Kurokiba's wrist, as if she was about to close the door and release the black dog.

Fortunately, Liu Maoxing grabbed Alice's wrist holding the scarf in time, so that no trouble would be caused.

"Really! It's all because of Ah Xing that you insist on some old noodles! When making noodles, only the yeast in the old noodles is used, right? On the contrary, the other bacteria contained in the old noodles will produce a sour taste, and when preserved, Old noodles that are not used well may have a poisonous effect!" Alice said.

After that, he was puzzled, and turned to the owner of the steamed bun shop and said, "And you too! What kind of old noodles are used, it's just a gimmick, honestly use yeast powder!"

"Alice!" Boss Liu Maoxing stopped Alice's words before getting angry.

"Do you still remember old man Miyamoto?" Liu Maoxing asked Alice.

"Huh? That stubborn old man who doesn't understand anything?"

"Indeed, but you don't know much about old noodles now, right? Although you need to use additional alkaline water to balance the acidity in the noodles, there are still many old shops that prefer to use old noodles instead of more Convenient yeast powder, and there is indeed a difference in the taste and texture of the noodles fermented by the two methods!

It can be seen that among them, there must be other miscellaneous bacteria that cannot be analyzed by modern science, or the interaction of several miscellaneous bacteria has achieved the result that baking powder cannot replace.Since you don't understand enough, you can't make an assertion lightly, right? "Liu Maoxing said.

Alice blushed, and only then did she understand why Liu Maoxing had mentioned old man Miyamoto before.

"I, I'm different from him!" Alice curled her lips.

"That's right, our second young lady is much cuter than that old man." Seeing that Alice had given in, Liu Maoxing comforted her.

"What second lady! And why are you comparing me with that old man for being cuter...and you let go of your hand first!" Alice twisted her wrist that was still being held by Liu Maoxing.

"All in all, there are still many interesting things about cooking, what we need to do is to explore, not to jump to conclusions!" Liu Maoxing said.

Alice thought about what Liu Maoxing said for a while, and then suddenly realized: "Hey! I'm not even sure about tomorrow's game, why are you pretending to be handsome here!"

Being generalized by Alice, Liu Maoxing also felt a little embarrassed, so he could only cough dryly: "Ahem, since it's pasta, it can also be called dim sum. The so-called dim sum is to 'light up the heart', which can light up the heart. , only the same 'heart' can do it, and the ingredients are just heretics!"

Alice looked ignorant, but at this moment...

"Well said!" An old voice suddenly came from behind Liu Maoxing.

Liu Maoxing was taken aback, and when he turned around, he realized that behind him was an old man who stood up straight and might have a chance to get close to 1.7 meters, but now because of his hunched back, his legs were naturally bifurcated and slightly bent , so that 1.6 meters away from him!

Judging by the age, I can't tell whether it's seventy, eighty, or more, but I'm in a good state of mind. I wear a fancy floral beach shirt, a pair of loose beach shorts, and a pair of toad mirrors. , and a big bald head...

Liu Maoxing instinctively shouted: "Turtle, turtle fairy?"

"Huh? What about Gui Xianren and Turtle Xianren, young man, you are not calling me a nickname for the old man, are you?" the old man said while picking his nostrils.

"No, no, I'm just talking to myself!" Liu Maoxing said a little shyly.

People in this world probably focus their skill points on cooking and eating, so there is no such work as "Dragon Ball". Even if one day he tells himself that Akira Toriyama is a master chef, Liu Maoxing will not be surprised, after all Even Sugiyama and Kazuichi have changed their careers...

"I said, Boss Bizen, it's not easy to have such an ideal boy, why don't you lend him the old noodles?" The old man seemed to know the owner of this Bizen manju shop.

"Eh? Just now... um, I mean... okay! You don't need to sell it, just give it to you!" The boss said with a weird expression.

The old man looked at the time, and then said: "That's right! Now, it should be exactly when you kneaded the noodles at noon, and it's almost time to send it out? It just so happened that this kid came here, picking out the noodles you sent out. Just give him a piece...Boy, after all, it is the old noodle handed down from Boss Bizen's ancestors, after using it, don't keep the 'old noodle'!"

"Of course! Thank you so much!" Liu Maoxing expressed his gratitude to both the old man and the boss.

After the boss also returned to the back kitchen, he retrieved a piece of dough the size of a fist, and told Liu Maoxing to use it carefully after returning.

"The older the old noodles you use, the more you need to test your ability to neutralize them with alkaline water. Don't be ashamed because of the old Bizen noodles!" the old man reminded.

"Don't worry! You will definitely live up to the expectations of the two of you!" Liu Maoxing said.

It wasn't until after Liu Maoxing and the others left that Bizen's boss said with a bitter face: "Master, I was obviously going to lend them the old noodles just now, didn't you stop me with your eyes from behind? And that piece of noodles?" Here, what exactly is it? Tomorrow they will participate in the competition, and they won't be there..."

It turned out that the reason why Bizen changed his tone before was because the old man winked at Liu Maoxing and the others, but he never expected that the old man would ask him to give away "old noodles" in the end, and the old noodles he sent were not from his own store. The treasures in the house, but...he didn't know when, a piece of noodles on the noodle table that he often drank in the back!

If it were someone else, Bizen wouldn't dare to listen to what he said. After all, tomorrow is the "Seafood Pastry Contest". If there is poison in the dough, things will be a big deal!

But this old man came to his store two weeks ago and after showing his hands a little, Bizen was astonished. He paid for the old man's recent travel expenses in Hokkaido, and the old man went to nightclubs one after another. , but Bizen felt that it was worth it, because just a little bit of fur taught by the old man made him feel that his skills have been greatly improved...

So Bizen did as the old man suggested, but it was inevitable that he would feel uneasy.

The old man did not continue to worry him, but said directly: "Don't worry, that piece is also an old noodle, and it is an old noodle handed down from my family, old man! I just went to reconcile some while you were talking."

"Huh, so that's the case! By the way, he is also from the magical country of China, so you helped him?" Bizen heaved a sigh of relief.

"Help? Maybe." The old man didn't say much, just took away Bizen's turnover today, and went to the big health care...

While Bizen was crying, he was also a little puzzled. The master had indeed disappeared for a while after winking at himself. Having seen the master's miraculous craftsmanship, it is not surprising that the master will be in a short period of time. Reconciled noodles, but wondering why that piece of noodles feels like it has been made for a long time and has been fully fermented?

Even if it is my century-old face, it will take several hours to have such an effect, right?

Liu Maoxing was also puzzled with him. After returning to the hotel, Liu Maoxing couldn't stop smelling this old noodle...

"What's the matter? Is there a problem?" Alice wondered after seeing his appearance.

"No, it's just a feeling...does the hundred-year-old noodles have this level? It's even better than I imagined!"

"Then hurry up and try it with the interview! Because it needs to be fermented, the noodles used can be prepared in advance!"
