Food starts with noodles

"My God, you can even do this? Amazing, isn't it?"

Xu Zhuo smiled with a calm expression.

What is this? With the skill of being diligent and eager to learn, no matter what the dish is, let us learn it at a glance.

Not to mention delicacies such as sauced elbows.

Chapter 1541 Sloppy

Just now Xu Zhuo just stared at the master who cut the elbow for a while, and then he learned the method of sauce elbow, which surprised Xu Zhuo himself.

But think about it, it’s been a long time since the skill of concentrating on learning has not been triggered. It’s normal to be able to trigger it quickly when I suddenly see a dish that the back kitchen doesn’t have.

Anyway, the skill has been acquired, and the meal is worth it.

Finally it was the two's turn, Ji Mingyu handed over the receipt, the baker took a look, then brought two freshly baked sesame seed cakes, and began to pick up the elbow meat.

Open the biscuit slices, grab a handful of chopped elbow meat and stuff it in until the meat can't be stuffed.

After the two biscuits were ready, the chef put the biscuits on the tray and handed them out.

After Ji Mingyu took it, he went to the next window to order fried tofu soup.

There is no need to line up at this window, because it is a big pot of ready-made soup, just use a spoon to pour it into the bowl, and then pass the bowl out, and customers can put coriander, green onion and other ingredients in it according to their needs.

With these food in hand, the two found an empty table, sat down, arranged the bowls, and eagerly picked up the biscuits.

Began to eat!

No matter how you look at it, the warm sesame seed cake sandwiches the already cooled elbow.

But in fact, the combination of the two is very beautiful.

The freshly baked sesame seed cakes are not only crispy and slag-free, but most importantly, they are very hot and the temperature is very high.

Especially in the biscuits, the temperature is so hot that people dare not touch them when they are just out of the oven.

In this high temperature, sandwiching the cold elbows can not only cool down quickly, but also the heat of the biscuits can also stimulate the aroma in the elbows.

Ingredients such as elbows have an obvious feature. When eaten hot, they have a strong aroma and soft meat.

There is no need to chew when eating, and the meat can be sucked into the stomach as soon as it is sucked.

The cold elbow is completely opposite, the aroma is hidden in the meat, and if you don't eat it in your mouth, you can hardly feel the strong aroma of the elbow.

In addition, after the elbow is cold, the juice will solidify, the meat will become slightly dry, the skin will become tendon again, and the lean meat will also become slightly dry.

But this is just an appearance. Once the elbow is heated, the aroma will permeate again, and the juice in the meat will gradually melt.

When the elbow is sandwiched in the biscuit, it will be heated gradually, but the biscuit is so big, even if the elbow can be heated, the heating is very limited.

So eat the elbow with sesame seed cakes, it will have a fragrance, but it will not be very strong.

The elbow meat inside still tastes chewy, but it is no longer dry and sticky, and the taste is more fragrant.

Served with sesame seed cakes that are crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, it is definitely a whole-hearted enjoyment.

And this feeling of eating meat and carbohydrates gives people a sense of depravity.

The so-called depravity is not that there is a problem with the mind, but that eating more carbohydrates and fat is not good for the body, but they just eat it with the mentality of being drunk today.

This feeling is really refreshing and enjoyable.

"Brother Xu Zhuo, how about this pancake with elbows? Isn't it unpalatable?"

Seeing that Xu Zhuoguang bowed his head to eat but did not speak, Ji Mingyu couldn't help asking.

Only then did Xu Zhuo come back to his senses, and said with a smile: "This elbow is very delicious, with a good salty aroma and a strong texture, it's really enjoyable to eat.

I will try to make it once I go back, even if I don’t sell it in the store and eat it by myself, it is worth a try. "

The delicacies in this store are not only delicious with elbows and sesame seeds, but also fried tofu soup is very delicious.

The so-called fried tofu soup is a soup made of tofu cubes fried to a golden yellow on the surface. This soup tastes salty and delicious, and when paired with juicy tofu cubes, it feels like drinking broth.

After eating and drinking enough, the two left the small shop and strolled towards the courtyard that Zhang Yuejin had mentioned.

When they arrived at the gate of the courtyard, Zhang Yuejin was almost there.

From the outside, this courtyard looks unremarkable, even a little dilapidated.

There are various small advertisements for renting houses on the mottled walls, and the red paint on the door has not been painted for several years. Not only has it been tanned and faded by now, but it has also peeled off a lot.

There are many weeds growing in the gaps between the roof tiles, and there is a high probability that the house is leaking.

These clues all indicate that there is no one living in the courtyard, and it should have been idle for a long time.

Regardless of the appearance of being in disrepair, but because it is within the second ring road, the price is definitely very high, because the courtyard houses in this area are all sky-high.

It can even be said that there is a price but no market.

Xu Zhuo originally planned to buy a slightly smaller courtyard house in the third ring road for several elderly people to live in, because the funds available to him are really limited.

At that time, I also forgot to tell Zhang Yuejin his budget, so now I am looking at houses in the second ring road.

Xu Zhuo felt that it was useless to look around, because the location and location of this courtyard house were excellent, and judging from the length of the outer wall, it is estimated that the area is not too small.

This kind of house would cost hundreds of millions to start at least.

Even if he mortgaged Sifang Restaurant, he might not be able to raise enough funds to buy a courtyard house.

sloppy.

Ji Mingyu leaned into the crack of the door and looked in, and said with a smile: "There are overgrown weeds here, and it looks like the yard described in "From Baicao Garden to Sanwei Bookstore" written by Mr. Lu Xun."

Xu Zhuo was stunned for a moment, and asked curiously: "This is a text from junior high school, do you remember?"

For a scumbag, the texts he has learned will never be remembered, and it is very rare to be able to vaguely remember the texts at which stage.

Ji Mingyu said helplessly: "When I was in the seventh grade, I had to be able to recite the second paragraph of this text, that is, the paragraph 'not to mention the green vegetable bed, the smooth stone well fence'.

Because I didn't recite it, the teacher forced me to stand in the corridor and asked me to call my parents.

I still remember that my dad drove here that day, and gave each of the teachers in the office a 1000-yuan consumption card like that of a roast duck restaurant. Our class teacher gave the most, and it seemed like four or five.

Originally thought that my dad wasted money, and I could walk sideways in school.

Who knew that starting from the second day, everyone from our head teacher to the teachers of various subjects would start targeting me.

Let me answer questions, let me do the questions, let me read the text, let me recite English words, anyway, all kinds of things are aimed at me.

It abruptly turned me from a mediocre person to an excellent student, and I was successfully admitted to a key high school in the third year of junior high school. "

Wow, what an inspiring story.

Xu Zhuo regretted talking about studying with this guy, because it is well known that Boss Xu is a scumbag.

The scumbag took the initiative to talk to Xueba about his studies, which seemed to be playing tricks in front of Guan Gong.

Ten minutes later, a blue Bentley Bentayga slowly drove over and stopped at the gate of the courtyard.

The car door was pushed open, and Zhang Yuejin got out of the car through the back door, and then another old man in a tunic suit with a cane also got out of the car.

The old man looked nearly 80 years old, with a thin body, and he felt that a gust of wind could knock him down.

"Xiao Zhuo, you are here. Let me introduce you. This is the owner of the courtyard house. His surname is Shao. You can call him Grandpa Shao."

After finishing speaking, he said to the old man again: "Old Shao, he is Xiaozhuo, and he is a first-class cook."

Xu Zhuo and Ji Mingyu came over and greeted this Grandpa Shao.

The old man looked Xu Zhuo up and down, with a smile in his eyes: "It's nice to be young, and this energy makes people enviable."

After expressing his emotions, he asked Xu Zhuo, "Young man, I heard from Xiao Zhang that you want to buy a courtyard house, and I don't know how much you can afford.

My courtyard house is not cheap. "

Chapter 1542 Except that I can't afford it, everything else is fine

Xu Zhuo knew very well that it was not cheap, and he also knew that his funds were limited.

But now that they're here, he definitely wants to take a look.

As for the price, even before the old man surnamed Shao came, he knew that the price of this courtyard house was absolutely sky-high.

So just buy it, just go in and have a look at the layout.

In this way, if you look at the house in the future, it is good to have a reference.

He smiled and said to Mr. Shao: "My funds are limited, so I can only say that I can meet the price you want as much as possible. If there is too much difference, then forget it.

I won't beg you to lower the price or something, because for you, that's a loss.

I don't like doing things that hurt others. "

Shao Lao turned his face and smiled at Zhang Yuejin: "Hey, he has a personality."

After he finished speaking, he waved at the driver standing beside him. The driver immediately took out a bunch of keys, walked to the gate of the courtyard, unlocked the door with the key, opened the gate of the courtyard, and stepped aside.

Elder Shao walked to the door with his cane, and said to Xu Zhuo, "Young man, come in and have a look.

People who sell houses have professional explanations to explain the purpose and value of the house to customers. I don’t understand those, but if you are willing to listen, I can tell you what happened in this yard when I lived here. thing. "

The wrinkles on his face are full of stories, and his words also have a strong desire to tell.

Xu Zhuo had dealt with the elderly so many times, so he could tell the difference naturally, so he walked over without hesitation, and carefully supported Mr. Shao: "Then I will listen carefully."

The two walked into the gate of the courtyard.

Xu Zhuo felt that no one had visited this yard for at least five years, and the yard was full of withered grass, and the withered grass was also mixed with new sprouts this year, which made the dilapidated feeling even stronger.

It can be said that this place does not need to be modified at all, and some horror movies such as deserted villages and ancient houses can be shot.

Leaving aside the ruins, the layout of the courtyard is pretty good.

The yard is very large, and there are at least three houses on each side. The houses are all old-fashioned blue brick houses, and the windows are also the wooden carved windows of the past, which look very old.

In addition to houses in the southeast and northwest, there are two aisles leading to the backyard on both sides of the main house. Walking through, you can see a small courtyard behind.

In addition to the weeds in the front yard, there are a few lonely trees, which is relatively monotonous.

But the green plants in the backyard are much richer, with flowers and plants, vines, and some unnamed green plants.

However, due to lack of care and pruning, some of these green plants have grown crazy, vines are everywhere, and some have even extended to the roof.

And some have died.

After looking around, Xu Zhuo felt more and more unable to afford it.

Let alone this courtyard in the capital city, even if it is located in the center of the provincial capital, it would cost hundreds of millions to say the least.

Now at this location, this location and the area, people's price of [-] million is considered a big discount.

Xu Zhuo once again felt that he was careless, and he really regretted not telling Zhang Yuejin his purchase budget in advance, which resulted in such a high-end courtyard house.

Fortunately, the Forbidden City prohibits trading, otherwise Zhang Yuejin might let himself visit the Forbidden City.

While looking around, Xu Zhuo also heard Mr. Shao tell the story of the courtyard house, which naturally included Mr. Shao himself.

Mr. Shao's name is Shao Junru, born in the Republic of China.

Although there is a Confucian word in his name, he is indeed a typical science man. He studied in the West in his early years and studied mechanical knowledge.

A few years later, he was successful in his studies.

At that time, when the country was in ruins, he responded to the call, resolutely quit his job and returned to the motherland.

After returning to China, he participated in the installation and research and development of a series of large-scale machinery. This courtyard house was the national award for him at that time.

He lived in this courtyard for half his life, married a wife and had children here, and spread his branches and leaves.

From a high-spirited youth to an old man step by step.

During this period, he experienced retirement, but was rehired by a certain industrial university and became a professor and research leader.

It can be said that I have dedicated my whole life to the machinery industry that I like and strive for.
