Chapter 156 Liangpi (3)

Da Rong did not want to interfere with the affairs of the Goguryeo king, but these Goguryeo people who were fighting among themselves wanted to use Da Rong's knife to eradicate their dissidents.

"It's their business to eradicate dissidents, but it interferes with our investigation!" Liu Yuan complained, "But we can't do anything to them. It's really a headache!"

The Goguryeo people didn't tell the truth and couldn't pry people's mouths open. For a while, there was no other way except to continue to deal with the Goguryeo people.

The moment he walked out of Lin Fei's house, Liu Yuan sighed, watching the shadow falling on the sundial pointer gradually coincide with the position of Youshi, and said quietly: "How can we relieve our worries? Only our Master Wen's warm dusk Eat!"

But today, Liu Yuan made a mistake. Today's evening meal was not only not warm, but also very cold.

The translucent white cold skin was placed on the chopping board. Ah Bing cut the cold skin into long strips with a few "swish" strokes and spread them at the bottom of the porcelain bowl. On top were the ingredients spread out in sequence: shredded The cucumbers, blanched bean sprouts, cooked like old tofu, a thing said to be called gluten, and the meat on the chicken breast ribs were also torn into thin strips that are good for eating, and a small handful of fried Peanuts, these are all coded on it.

After a bowl of meat-and-vegetable cold skin is ready, pour in the prepared cooking water, vinegar and a spoonful of fragrant red oil in turn. Until the end, I love the coriander so much that I won’t even touch it if I don’t like it. Everything depends on personal preference.

Because the ingredients were already prepared, although the queue for the evening meal was a little longer, it went very quickly. Liu Yuan took the bowl of cold skin to the table and sat down. Without Wen Mingtang's reminder, he quickly mixed the bowl of cold skin with some "experience". The cold skin was dyed a layer of red and was shiny with juice. Before it was eaten, the sour and spicy smell that rushed into the nose was already whetting one's appetite.

After mixing it well, Liu Yuan couldn't wait to pick up a chopstick and put it into his mouth. The cold skin in the mouth is chewy, smooth, sour and spicy. The spiciness is Master Wen's special spiciness. Looking at the red slice, it is only slightly spicy, but the aroma is more intense.

The cucumber shreds, bean sprouts, gluten and chicken breast ribs inside are wrapped in the spicy and sour juice, and are soaked in the spicy and sour taste. Everyone who had lost their appetite due to the hot weather exclaimed as soon as they took in the bowl of cold skin: "This thing called cold skin is perfect for eating in summer!"

Although it is poured with spicy oil, the sour taste and the presence of greasy-relieving things such as cucumber shreds and bean sprouts in it relieve the greasy taste. However, if it is too "refreshing", sometimes it will feel "bland" in the mouth. , but this thing called cold skin does not feel bland because of the strong aroma of red oil. Coupled with the shredded chicken breast ribs mixed in, it can be said that everything is just right, just right!

"Take a bowl back and try this cold skin thing with your family!" Hearing the discussion of several guards not far away, Liu Yuan remembered that the Internal Affairs Office allowed take-out, but he was busy looking for those Goguryeo people in the past two days. Man, he had completely forgotten about it!

When he thought about this, Liu Yuan became very upset, feeling as if he had lost a large bag of money while walking on the road.

He raised his head and looked towards the public kitchen. Sure enough, he saw Ji Caimai's familiar face in the corner behind a square window that had been opened at an unknown time. At his hand was a stack of food boxes. Thinking about the abacus, he smiled like a "shopkeeper" and talked to the few servants in front of him who asked him about the takeout.

Liu Yuan was immediately happy when he saw this. After finishing the last bit of cold skin in the bowl, he couldn't wait to walk to the window and look at the price written on the wooden board.

The price of a portion of Liangpi was about the same as that of a portion of noodles outside. Liu Yuan breathed a sigh of relief when he saw it: it was indeed much cheaper than Lin Shaoqing's dime of rice.

It’s just that you can’t hold this take-out meal empty-handed! Liangpi is not like steamed buns or pancakes that can be wrapped in oil paper and held in your hand.

If you want to bring cold skin, if you don’t have it suitable, you can ask the public chef to buy a food box.

"There are two ways to use the food box: rent it or buy it. It costs five cents at a time, but you have to deposit the money as a deposit. The deposit will be refunded to you when you return it!" Ji Caimai said, "You can also just buy the food box directly. , it’s just for your own use, just remember to bring it with you, otherwise you’ll have to buy it again!”

Looking at Ji Caimai who was ringing the beads on the abacus in his hand, Liu Yuan twitched the corner of his mouth and said, "You really look like a shopkeeper!"

Although Ji Caimai is not young, he has a good ear. Hearing this, he raised his head and squinted in Liu Yuan's direction, snorted and said, "Go and see which shopkeeper outside has such a conscience as our public chef?"

That's true! After all, the purpose of opening restaurants and restaurants is to make a living and make money. The rent is a huge expense. The rent of the public kitchen in Dali Temple is saved, and only the wages of Master Wen and others are left. It's cheaper than what's sold outside.

What's more, if Master Wen's skills were put outside, the shopkeepers would probably charge a sky-high price.

The officers would not miss the opportunity to take out the food. Some brought one portion back to try, while others with more relatives and friends ordered two or three portions. The one with the most even ordered seven portions.

The person who asked for seven portions was none other than Yu Jijiu, who had made a "great effort" in the takeout business.

"This is the first time I've met a chef who cooks so well to my liking," Yu Jijiu clicked his tongue, watching Ji Cai buy the cold skin and said with emotion, "Go back and try it with my family, they'll be fine This bite!"

Master Wen raised his eyelids and looked at the empty-handed Yu Jijiu. He pointed at the food box behind him and said, "The Jijiu didn't bring a food box. Is that... a rental box or..."

"Why rent? Just buy it! Just put a note from me on it and use it to store food for the kitchen." Yu Jijiu said, glanced at the square size, and added a OK Freely separating the food boxes for rice and vegetables, he said, "This one of yours is great, but it's much lighter than that big one!"

Carrying a large food box, you can put all these snack boxes in it. It just so happens that Jicaimai also sells large food boxes. Four food boxes can fit into one layer, making a total of two layers. You can carry up to eight meals. It's a bit heavy for one person to lift.

Seeing the food box bearer in front of him with all his facial features straining and not being elegant at all, Ji Cai adjusted his abacus and looked at the large amount of income contributed by Yu Jijiu. He smiled and said, "Zhao You happened to It’s empty, let him give it to you!”

I am afraid that this person will be a regular customer in the future, so he must not be neglected.

When the evening meal was over, Wen Mingtang and others sat at the dining table and waited for Ji Caimai, who was smiling and almost narrowing his eyes.

"It should have been like this a long time ago. The internal affairs office's procrastination kept me waiting for a long time and I made a lot of money!" Ji Caimai said, walking to sit in front of everyone.
