Chapter 56 Entertaining

Early this morning, everyone in the village was busy.The place to treat guests is outside the big ancestral hall in the village, where the ancestors of each family in the village are enshrined.If there are any important matters on weekdays, the village also chooses to hold meetings here.Today is not only a banquet for the bosses who come to the village, but also a gathering for the villagers in the village.

The elders of several families brought incense paper candles and tributes to worship their ancestors early in the morning.Although there is no sewing festival today, today's event is a major event for each family in the village, so I have to come to pay homage to the ancestors.The old man respectfully placed sacrifices, lit joss sticks, burned yellow paper, and bowed respectfully.

Many people say that this is a feudal custom and should not be advocated.In fact, think about it again, isn't this a kind of inner sustenance and moral restraint?Treat the gods three feet above your head with reverence, remember the family precepts of your ancestors, be strict in life, be kind to others, and pass on your innocence to the family.Moreover, this is more of a family cohesion, a spirit that brings together family members scattered all over the place.

The so-called abandoning the dross refers to those things that are undesirable and not worth remembering.However, the family spirit and the legacy of the ancestors are often worth carrying forward.In many places, today's worship is just a form, forgetting the most fundamental meaning of form.

"The ingredients here are good, but they are far behind yours." The chef Xue Jing invited was surnamed Cao, and like most chefs, he was a fat man in his 40s.At first glance, it looks amiable and friendly.

"Uncle Cao, Uncle Cao!" Several children ran over, biting their fingers, looking at Chef Cao with blinking eyes.

"It's finished after this? Come, Uncle Cao will bring you another bowl of snacks. How about this lotus flower cake?" Chef Cao likes this group of children.Since he came yesterday, he has started to prepare various materials. When he saw some children playing nearby, he gave them a lot of food.

Anyway, this child is from the village, and Chef Cao was specially invited by Xue Jing to help, so the villagers have no objection to him distributing food to the child like this.It was just this move that made the children in the village like him very much, and they all came to his side after a while.

"The lotus and lotus leaves in your house are very good. The fragrance is sweet, and the bitterness is gone. Oh, I smelled this smell this morning. It's amazing. I didn't feel tired after driving and working yesterday. .” Chef Cao himself was eating a lotus cake.

This lotus flower cake was originally dyed with flour and fried in the shape of a lotus flower.But the lotus cake that Chef Cao made today is really made of lotus.The petals of Wang Lian are wrapped in egg white, then dipped in bread crumbs, and then deep-fried in hot oil.After frying, sprinkle spice powder fried with salt, and finally, crush fried mint leaves and sprinkle on top.

The taste of the whole lotus flower crisp is very layered, crispy on the outside, burnt and fragrant, rich in flavor, soft and fragrant on the inside, combined with the aroma of mint and refreshing, it can be said that there are many layers of taste in one bite.These children like to eat very much.

Yesterday Feng Junhui sent some fresh fish, shrimp and crabs from the small lake on the other side of Baicao Garden, among which lotus leaves were used to cushion the baskets.When Chef Cao came to look at the goods, he was very fond of these fresh fish, shrimps and crabs, and at the same time he also fell in love with the lotus leaves on the basket.

No, let Feng Junhui pick some lotus leaves and flowers early in the morning to cook.There are quite a lot of lotus leaves, after all, such a large lake, even if it is crowded by Wang Lian, there are not many lotus leaves.The lotus is Wang Lian with a super large flower.

Feng Junhui took a group of children to help by the way, lest they wander around the frying pan and cause trouble.The lotus flowers the size of washbasins were plucked, and these children carefully carried them back. It was amazing to walk all the way back.

Zhao Wei and the others saw Wang Lian's flowers on the way, and they kept taking pictures.However, Feng Junhui refused their request to go to the small lake.The village head invited Zhao Wei and the others to the village party. Zhao Wei felt sorry and told the students, and everyone agreed to give money.The people in the village contribute food and labor, and they just pay money if they have no food or labor.

As guests, Zhao Wei and the others had some privileges. They also got a portion of the snacks that these children ate, which were brought to them by the villagers.Girls are very fond of this kind of good-looking food. They take pictures first and then eat it.

"It's delicious!"

"I think there must be countless lotus flowers blooming behind me!"

"I still felt guilty about eating such a beautiful thing, but after I ate it, I just wanted to say, have another piece!"

A few girls licked their fingers, and the large plate of lotus flower cakes had been eaten, but the aroma of the lotus flower cakes just squeezed still remained on the fingers, so it should not be wasted!

After ten o'clock, those bosses came to the village one after another.The village head led the village cadres and Feng Junhui to greet him at the entrance of the village.Feng Junhui is now regarded as the mascot of the village, and the old village head would like to take him with him if there is any event in the village.

The bosses who came here were quite accommodating, including many purchasing staff.They all often go to the countryside, and spend a lot of time with their fellow villagers, so they are not arrogant.And very talkative, the atmosphere is also very good.

Now that it's here, it's too late to go to the field to look at the vegetables and livestock, but it's okay to look at the ingredients by the chopping board.The eyes of these purchasers were sharp. After looking at the ingredients, they immediately pointed out what Feng Junhui's family brought: "Are these fish and shrimp good? Can they be supplied for a long time? The lotus and lotus leaves are good, and the lotus leaves are good. Is it Wang Lianhua? This..."

The village chief blushed at the side. He originally used these ingredients from Feng Junhui's family to make today's meal better, but he didn't expect to get the attention of these bosses now.What can I do?He quickly looked at Feng Junhui, not because he was afraid that Feng Junhui would steal the business from the villagers, but because he was afraid that the bosses would be dissatisfied after seeing the good ones.

"These fish and shrimps can't be provided. I raise them for myself. There is no extra. Bosses, can you see if other dishes are suitable? These are all produced in our village. The quantity is relatively large and can keep up with everyone's Demand." Feng Junhui explained beside him.

"The quality of these dishes is pretty good, but we still need to try them again. Please take us to the fields in the afternoon." A purchasing staff said.These dishes are no worse than the green vegetables sold outside, they just have to make sure the taste of the dishes, and whether there is any difference between the ones in the field and the ones they see now.

"That's, that's, let's go to the field in the afternoon to have a look." The village chief led the people to sit at the table first, and asked them to pour tea and refreshments.

"The environment here in your village is pretty good. I found that there are a lot of birds." These buyers are not in a hurry to negotiate contracts, and instead started chatting about these purchases.

The village chief was still a little anxious, and Xue Jing, who was accompanying him, secretly gave the village chief a wink, telling him to take it easy.You are in a hurry to speak, and you are in the arms of others, which will not be good for future negotiations on prices and conditions.Xue Jing also said cheerfully: "People in our village have a strong awareness of environmental protection. There are many birds in the village, and they are loved ones."

"Xiao Huang, Xiao Hong, come here." Feng Junhui waved, and a yellow bird of paradise and a red-billed jade came over.He flew into Feng Junhui's arms and rubbed his head against Feng Junhui.

"Is this all raised by you?" The man asked Feng Junhui, and then looked at Xue Jing differently. This man's mouthful of Beijing movies, his accent is not a local at all.

"It's hard to say how to raise them. Their nests are built next to my yard, so they will be cooked naturally. Thanks to the help of these birds, the vegetables in our village do not use pesticides, and there are many insects. These birds help catch the insects." Feng Junhui After touching the two birds, he let them fly away.

"Today we have a banquet, just in time, we also get some food for these birds, and treat them well. Our village can produce this dish, and they are all heroes!" The old village chief said suddenly, and he really ordered a few A woman went to fry barley grains, and brought millet, which birds like to eat.

"If I can adopt these birds, I really want to take two of them back." Chef Cao who was busy over there said to Feng Junhui.

"This bird, it's better to live with us and be free." Feng Junhui smiled.Although these waves of people who came to the village like these birds, and they can take good care of them when they bring them back.But Feng Junhui felt that it was better for these birds to be in the village, and the surrounding environment was more suitable for the birds to live in.

"That's right, it's really hard for them to live in a cage." Chef Cao sighed, and he already had the idea of ​​living here for a while.

The lunch was served on time, and the table was full of dishes, stacked one after another. The wine was roasted by the villagers themselves, sweet and mellow.Chef Cao personally checks the dishes. The dishes are not only beautifully presented, but also delicious and fragrant, so that the bosses who come to try the dishes have nowhere to choose.

Adults and children are eating on the dam here, and the birds are also gathering on the side of the dam to eat the food prepared by the villagers.The scene was very harmonious, with the sounds of people and birds resounding between cups and cups.

"Teacher, do I know what I'm going to draw this time?" A student suddenly whispered to Zhao Wei when he saw this scene.

"Then pick up the brush and start drawing after you go back. Whatever you think, just let it appear on the paper." Zhao Wei was quite pleased.

The beauty of nature can be seen in many places, and many cute animals can be found.But such harmony between man and nature, and the intimacy between man and animals is rare.This is also a kind of humanities, and their paintings also need this kind of silent language.

In the afternoon, the village chief took the people in the village and led the bosses to the field.The villagers are very confident and are absolutely not afraid of people going to the fields to see them. They don't use pesticides or chemical fertilizers. It doesn't matter who or when they go to see them.All the bosses who came were quite satisfied with what they saw in the field.

Adhering to the principle of cannibalism with short mouths, these birds spontaneously flew to various fields in the afternoon to help catch insects!Therefore, these bosses did not find traces of using pesticides or chemical fertilizers in the fields. Instead, they saw pictures of birds helping to catch insects, and invisibly raised the grade of these vegetables by one level.

"This bird doesn't eat vegetables?" A boss asked, wondering if they were negligent and didn't notice the crookedness in these vegetables. If these birds don't eat them, could it be that there is something wrong with the vegetables?

"Why don't they eat vegetables? It's just that these vegetables are not picked for them, and they won't steal them by themselves. They are very well-behaved." The old village head explained.Then he picked up a small green vegetable and put it in his hand, then straightened his hand, and brought it to the nearest bird. The bird immediately understood the meaning and flew over to peck it.The birds next to it also flew over to fight for food.

"These birds are really amazing!" The boss just now was also full of disbelief.

"The birds here are all used to catching insects in the greenhouse, and they are used to it. You will find it rare when you see it for the first time." Xue Jing said, he is very clear about how strange the birds here are. Yes, it's so strange that it deviates from common sense!

After visiting the vegetable growing field, I looked at the free-grazing sheep, yaks, poultry and other livestock.These bosses are quite satisfied.After returning to the village, some buyers began to talk about cooperation. He could see that if this topic was not important, people in the village would really keep silent today.

Moreover, there are many people like them who come to buy vegetables, but there are not many first batches of vegetables in this village. Whoever gets the first chance will get more vegetables when the time comes.The others were not stupid, they immediately came to their senses and started talking about cooperation and signing contracts.The village head was very cheerful, and gave Feng Junhui and Xue Jing the right to speak. They were afraid that they would not be able to reach an agreement because they asked for the wrong price.

Many villagers were present, and the negotiation went smoothly. Considering the long-term cooperation, both parties are full of sincerity.In addition, Xue Jing had already had someone do a market survey, and when negotiating the price, it was within the psychological acceptance range of both parties.

"Today's major issue is finally resolved!" After sending those bosses away, the village head finally relaxed.They have already preliminarily negotiated the cooperation, and the villagers are very satisfied, so they waited for two days before signing the contract.The things produced in the village can be regarded as marketable.

"Our village will be better in the future." Feng Junhui said.

"You brought this back to the village. The carp in our village has finally crossed the Longmen!" The carp ridge means that the overall terrain of their village resembles the back of a carp.
