Cute Beast Food Garden

On the red flag, the four big characters were particularly glaring, and the people present were in an uproar.

Outside the restaurant, the beggars held dog-beating sticks in their hands and beat rhythmically on the ground, which can be described as menacing.

The customers in the restaurant panicked, Si Dongmo was dumbfounded, and Qi Yan was too shocked to speak: This group of beggars was indeed organized, and they even called it the "Beggar Gang". They surrounded the entire restaurant, Is it just to let the cook cook a birthday feast for their elder?

During the noise, Boss Lan rushed over from the backyard upon hearing the news.He walked up to the two beggars, bowed his hands humbly, and said softly: "Two brothers, the small shop can consider your request. However, the guys in the small shop are rushing to deliver important things to the government. I also ask all the brothers of the beggar gang to do me a favor and make way for the door."

The restaurant is surrounded by gangs of beggars, and the situation is not optimistic.Facing the rude intruders, Boss Lan spoke very cautiously and politely: "The cakes from the shop need to be delivered to the government before noon, please help me, two brothers."

"Ha, at noon?" The two beggars glanced at each other and smiled evilly at the boss: "It just so happens that the birthday banquet of the elders in our gang will also be held at noon. In a quarter of an hour from now, we I want to see the birthday gift from your store!"

Boss Lan's gaze sank, "Then... may I ask what kind of 'gift' do you need?"

The beggars carried out a huge and heavy package, and it hit the ground with a "boom", shaking the ground a few times.

Judging from the open pouch of the bag, what was inside was nothing but a giant flour dumpling!

One of the beggars laughed, "Our beggars have always been frugal, and we are not used to delicacies from mountains and seas. Today is the elder's [-]th birthday, and his favorite food is all kinds of pasta. How about it, you can eat it at noon. Before, I made ten different types of pasta, and no meat dishes were allowed in them, but different types of vegetarian fillings must be added! As long as you can get them out on time, we will make it easier for you, the boss, and we will never break our promise!"

"Ten different types of pasta, and different vegetarian fillings? It's too late just to knead the noodles."

"Restaurants can use ready-made and reconciled noodles. The bag of flour brought by our beggar gang is for you. No matter what method or ingredients you use, as long as you can come up with ten kinds of noodles before noon. !"

Time is tight, there are many tricks, and the request made by the beggar gang is really too difficult.Boss Lan frowned, and the diners around became restless and whispered.There was a lot of noise during the dinner, and some diners who watched the excitement fanned the flames at the table and shouted loudly: "Boss Lan, your restaurant is not afraid to accept the challenge, right?"

Someone boldly asked from the seat: "In that case, wouldn't our customers who finished their meal before noon not be able to leave here?"

"Haha! My uncle didn't say that. If you have the ability, just leave!"

As he spoke, the beggar threw the dog-beating stick violently on the ground, making a loud knocking sound.Following his movements, a strong air flow exploded from his body to the surroundings, oscillating in circles in the small shop.The guests screamed, the tableware on the nearby tables shook violently, and the wine swung out of the glasses and spilled all over the floor.

"Sure enough, this guy is still a practitioner, with a lot of true energy in his body."

Si Dongmo knows some boxing skills, and he is particularly sensitive to the existence of martial arts practitioners.Seeing the beggar arrogantly pacing up and down the restaurant with a dog-beating stick, the diners shrank back to their seats in fright, and did not dare to make a sound, nor did they dare to mention the matter of going out.

There was a silence in the restaurant, which made the swaggering beggar very proud.

"Okay, Boss Lan, no one dares to speak out now." The beggar put the stick on his shoulders, pointed to the big bag of flour on the ground, and made a "please" gesture to Boss Lan with a smile .

"The brothers of our beggar gang are guarding the entrance of the restaurant. Whenever the birthday gift we want is ready, we will leave at that time. We will definitely not stay for a quarter of an hour longer, and it will not affect the boss's business."

Your actions now have affected the business of restaurants.Qi Yan looked depressedly at that guy wandering triumphantly in the store, feeling very annoyed in his heart.There was a big fuss in front of the store today, how many people will dare to eat in the restaurant next time?Moreover, these poor beggars have no friendship with the Fourteen Restaurant, so they dare to come to the restaurant and ask the chef to cook for them. It is really shameless to the extreme.

The more he thought about it, the angrier he became, he couldn't help looking at Si Dongmo, and asked in a low voice: "Dong Mo, you are very good at kung fu, can you beat this guy to the ground?"

Si Dongmo silently glanced at Qi Yan, then his gaze sank, and he quickly rolled up the cuff of his right hand.

The beggar who was wandering around in the room suddenly saw the tall man who was pulling up his cuffs, and immediately turned the stick horizontally, pointing the tip at Si Dongmo's eyes: "What are you going to do?"

Si Dongmo's body was tense, his palms were clenched into fists, and his feet were secretly accumulating energy.However, just before he was about to walk towards the beggar, a figure quickly flashed in front of him, blocking his progress.

"Brother, don't misunderstand, he is the cook of the restaurant, and he is going back to the stove to light the fire."

It's Boss Lan.The moment Si Dongmo was about to rush up to fight the beggar, he stopped the man's plan just right, then picked up the flour bags sent by the beggars from the ground, turned around and walked towards Qi Yan.

Seeing the aggrieved eyes of the two, Boss Lan shook his head slightly, motioning them to keep quiet, and followed him to the backyard.

The three of them came to the empty stove house.As soon as he walked into the room, Qi Yan immediately said: "Boss Lan, who are these 'beggar gangs'? They are here today to find fault, right?"

"That's right, they're here to find fault." Boss Lan unloaded the flour bag, then patted the boy's wrist, signaling him to calm down, "Besides, some of the customers sitting here just now also had their insiders mixed in, taking the opportunity to stir up trouble, obviously there is someone come ready."

"This 'beggar gang' is actually a small group of refugees in Luoxia Town. They are brave and ruthless, have extremely bad conduct, and they call themselves a gang. It is to forcibly collect some change from others. If they don’t obey, they will deliberately come to the door to make trouble. Our restaurant always pays a small amount of money to be safe. We have not been harassed by them very much. Follow us."

This group of rambunctious beggars turned out to be not the so-called "beggar gang" in seriousness, but imposed a name on themselves.Just because of their rampant and domineering behavior, they are not worthy of the title of "Beggar Gang".

Qi Yan felt aggrieved when he heard this, and said in disbelief, "This 'beggar gang' is so arrogant, why didn't the government take care of them? Even the cakes we were going to send to the government today could be stopped by them, it's too arrogant Bar?"

"For them, the government is indeed turning a blind eye. This group of people are fierce and aggressive, with a strong desire for revenge, and they are cunning and scurrying around the town. It is difficult to catch them. No one in the government wants to take a disadvantage What's more, some officials colluded with them and asked them to do some shameful private work for them. Even the boss Yao of the casino in the town would cooperate with them. This "beggar gang" is really not good provoke."

After hearing these words, Qi Yan fell silent.He impulsively encouraged Si Dongmo to beat up the beggar just now, which was too risky.Regardless of whether these beggars have practiced martial arts or not, their barefooted recklessness and the dog-beating sticks they waved in their hands are enough to deter them.

If Boss Lan hadn't stopped Si Dongmo in time at that time, even if Si Dongmo was good at defeating that beggar, when all the beggars outside the restaurant rushed up with sticks, would they still be able to escape unscathed?

What's more, Boss Lan's restaurant has finally opened to this day, and the objects in the house, such as tables, chairs, benches, etc., have undergone rare and meticulous maintenance. Injury, scared away, that is not worth the candle.

Qi Yan looked into Boss Lan's eyes with some guilt: "I'm sorry, Boss Lan, I didn't think carefully just now, I was too impulsive, and almost ruined a big event."

"It's nothing, Qi Yan, you don't have to blame yourself." Boss Lan patted him on the shoulder tenderly, "Now I have to ask you two, think of any way to meet the demands of the beggar gang?"

Si Dongmo's face was gloomy: "These beggars are obviously here to find fault. Could it be that we have made ten kinds of pasta, and they will not smash the restaurant?"

"If they really wanted to smash up the restaurant, they could have rushed in from the very beginning and beat up the restaurant, instead of making a public request for food and giving us time to respond." Boss Lan said calmly, "The restaurant There was no enmity with the gang of beggars, I am more inclined to think that beggars are entrusted by others to come to make things difficult for restaurants."

"To make things difficult?" Si Dongmo was startled, "Who would go to the Beggar Gang to do this kind of thing?"

"I agree with Boss Lan's idea, and I have a guess." Qi Yan analyzed: "People from the beggar gang came to block the door when we delivered the cakes to the government, and explicitly asked for food. The messengers behind the scenes are obviously our colleagues.

First, they know the specific time when we go to the government to deliver the goods; second, Fourteen restaurants won the food competition and attracted a large number of customers in a short period of time. Restaurant signboard. "

He firmly said: "If we fail to meet the requirements this time, it will become 'fourteen restaurants are incapable of making food, worthy of the title of king of food', and the reputation among customers will be destroyed. Moreover, we will Because of being blocked by the gang of beggars, I missed the time limit for delivering goods to the government, and I couldn't get good fruit from the official."

Si Dongmo gritted his teeth, and said in a low voice, "This 'instructor' is really scheming."

"Looks like a big tree attracts the wind." Boss Lan said with a serious expression, "Ten kinds of noodles... all I can think of now are sesame seed cakes, steamed buns, steamed buns, dumplings... Wait, no, they require pure vegetarian food, and I'm afraid they can't add any meat dishes. , so buns and dumplings cannot be counted.”

Qi Yan said: "If you don't add meat dishes, you can make steamed buns and vegetarian dumplings."

Hearing his words, Boss Lan and Si Dongmo were both taken aback.

"Vegetable buns and vegetarian dumplings? Do you want to add vegetarian vegetables to the dough?"

"Uh... yes, I remember this way of eating..." Seeing the surprised eyes of the two, Qi Yan was also a little puzzled.Haven't the ancients in other worlds ever eaten vegetarian dumplings?

Thinking about it this way, it seems to be true—all Qi Yan ate in this other world were meat buns and meat dumplings, or egg dumplings at worst. It seems that people on their side really don't have the habit of eating vegetarian pasta.

"I can't control that much now. Dongmo, we still have a lot of ready-made vegetarian dishes in the kitchen, which can just be used to make vegetarian pasta."

As Qi Yan spoke, his mood gradually calmed down, and he began to think calmly and methodically. "They came to make a fuss because they wanted to see the restaurant's jokes. But we are not as good as they want! Moreover, we have to prove to the diners inside and outside the store that even if we are deliberately made things difficult, we It can also make decent food!"

Si Dongmo looked at the energetic young man, his gloomy face became brighter.

"That's good." The man said, picked up the rolling pin, got up and walked to the stove, "Let them see what our restaurant is capable of!"

Ten kinds of cooked pasta.Si Dongmo and Boss Lan counted the same number with their fingers: "Seed cakes, vegetable buns, vegetarian dumplings, deep-fried dough sticks, steamed buns..."

As they began to knead the dough, they were thinking hard about the pattern of pasta.But the ancient times were no more material-rich than the modern times. The varieties they could make or think of were really limited, and they couldn't make up ten kinds after counting, so they couldn't help feeling a little anxious.

Qi Yan searched in his mind for pasta that he had eaten on Earth in his previous life, and then said: "Also, I thought of a few more, Hanamaki, Mahua, leek box..."

"Flower roll? Twist? Box?" Si Dongmo showed a confused look, "What are these?"

Qi Yan rolled his eyes, "You may not have seen these, but I have. Without further ado, let me do the remaining three things!"

Si Dongmo was dubious: "Can you fry?"

Qi Yan glanced at him, and straightened his back: "Yes! I have been imitating your cooking movements these days, and of course I have learned a lot of cooking skills. You can rest assured and leave it to me!"

When Qi Yan was a child, he often went to the small stall downstairs in the community to have breakfast. He had witnessed the process of making flower rolls and fried dough twist, and saw at least hundreds of twists.In addition, now that I have copied Si Dongmo's frying skills, and practiced while recalling, the first time I got started, it went relatively smoothly.While Si Dongmo was frying fried dough sticks, Qi Yan also quickly twisted a few long strips, added raw eggs to them, kneaded them into shapes, and threw them into the frying pan.

Si Dongmo caught a glimpse of the two hastily kneaded twisted twisted twists, and couldn't help asking in surprise, "What did you add to the dough just now? Salt? Green onions?"

"Yes, this thing tastes salty." Qi Yan said and started twisting the twist again, "Speaking of which, this gang of beggars only requires ten kinds of noodles, and they don't have too high requirements for the taste. Let's I don’t have time to pursue the taste of what I make, as long as it can be eaten by some poor elder of the beggar gang without being poisoned.”

Si Dongmo glanced at him vaguely, still lingering in fear of the strange shape of the marijuana flower that Qi Yan quickly squeezed out.

"Such a strange shape, could it be that the dish was invented by the little spirit beast?" The man muttered to himself, "The style is so novel, it really deserves to be made by the spirit beast!"

However, no matter how strange the shape was, it was not as urgent as time.The chefs in the restaurant and a boss all went into battle, frying, steaming and cooking, hurrying, sweating profusely, without even a chance to catch their breath.

As time goes on, the sun in the sky has risen higher and higher.In the dining hall of the restaurant, two ragged beggar gang leaders stood among the customers, walking back and forth arrogantly.

"...Haha, the time is up soon!" A beggar pointed to the high sun outside, shaking his head triumphantly, "This dilapidated restaurant can't offer ten kinds of pasta at all, it seems that the 'King of Food' 'The fame of the first life will be ruined!"

"Yes, yes, yes!" Another beggar nodded desperately, and sneered at the diners with different expressions around him: "After all, it is a grass-roots team that started on a temporary basis, and it can't compare to an upright big restaurant..."

"Shut up nonsense!"

The calm and calm male voice suddenly sounded in the hall, making the two beggars who were talking nonsense subconsciously stunned.

Boss Lan strode into the front hall of the restaurant, followed by Qi Yan, Si Dongmo and the big guys in the restaurant.

The beggar raised his eyebrows, and his tone was very naughty: "Heh! It's a small shop with a lot of momentum. Let me ask you, have you finished the birthday gift that our beggar gang wants?"

Boss Lan placed the wrapped paper bags on the small table in the center of the restaurant, pushed them in front of the beggar, and replied calmly, "Ten servings of pasta are not a lot."
