Chapter 33: Drink tea?
"Chinese chives?"
When Gao Moqi saw that there were leeks in the dumplings, he was completely stunned.
How could it be leeks?
In China, dumplings with meat filling are meat filling, and dumplings with vegetable filling are vegetable filling.
A fixed pattern seems to have been formed.
The most surprising thing is to mix meat and vegetables together to make dumplings.
This dish actually has a very strong flavor of leeks.
Gao Moqi had eaten leeks before, but he disliked them because the taste was too strong.
Therefore, he usually just tries a little and stops there.
After all, as a gourmet, he can't be too picky about food.
However, the fact that leeks were mixed into the meat dumplings really shocked him.
He couldn't believe it and put the remaining half of the dumpling into his mouth and chewed it carefully.
The combination of granular shrimp meat and thick pork is full of taste.
Combining so much meat together can actually be greasy.
However, the addition of leeks just neutralizes this greasy taste.
Moreover, the taste of leeks not only masks the fishy smell of shrimp and pork, but also greatly enhances the overall taste and aroma.
To achieve this, the ratio of the three ingredients is very important.
Especially for leeks, if you put too much, the taste will be too strong and it will directly cover up the taste and texture of the meat.
If you put too little, it won't be able to cover up the greasy and fishy smell of the meat.
It can be said that there is just the right amount of leeks in the dumplings.
The combination of these three ingredients is simply the most perfect and ingenious combination.
Gao Moqi couldn't help but pick up the second dumpling.
The more I eat, the more I think these dumplings are delicious.
"How is it, Mo Qi? Is it delicious?" Xu Yi stared at Gao Mo Qi intently and saw the shock in his eyes.
There aren't many foods that can shock Gao Moqi.
"Yeah, it's delicious." Gao Moqi's taste is usually very difficult to obtain, especially for food.
The three words "delicious" are his highest praise so far.
After hearing this, Xu Yi smiled with satisfaction.
See, no one can escape from Brother Mo’s dumplings.
Even Gao Moqi, a picky guy, is the same.
"When I first ate these dumplings, I was also amazed. I have never eaten dumplings so delicious. You don't know that I queued from noon until just now for these dumplings, and I finally bought them with great difficulty."
Xu Yi began to babble.
"It's a pity that these dumplings are only sold today for the last day. I may never be able to eat them again."
When Xu Yi ate the dumplings, he felt that his boring life suddenly had light.
I used to stay at home and write books. I had basically no desires or requests, and it seemed as if I could see the end of my life at a glance.
However, ever since he ate these dumplings, he suddenly felt motivated over the past two or three days.
Every day I look forward to Brother Mo opening his stall. After eating dumplings, I feel full of energy and have the energy to write.
And it's particularly inspiring.
Now thinking that he would never be able to eat Brother Mo's dumplings again, Xu Yi's mood instantly fell to the bottom and he felt that his life had lost its light again.
Never sell it again?
"Why?" Gao Moqi didn't understand. Dumplings with this taste must sell well.
We can tell from what Xu Yi said that he started queuing at noon and that purchases were limited.
"Why else? Brother Mo is a rich man. He makes dumplings and sells them purely as a hobby. These dumplings, six in a basket, guess how much they cost."
Gao Moqi could taste the ingredients of the dumplings and also knew the approximate price of these ingredients.
Such good ingredients, coupled with such good cooking skills.
He made a guess based on the normal market price.
"About 3,000 Chinese Yuan per cage?"
In fact, Gao Moqi has already given a low price.
If Xu Yi hadn't said that these dumplings were sold at a street stall, if they were placed in a high-end hotel restaurant, they would cost at least 8,000 Chinese yuan.
Even in five-star hotel restaurants, the prices are over five figures.
If a famous chef were to cook it, the price would be even more expensive.
After all, such cooking skills are really rare.
The most important thing is that the deep-sea tiger prawns are also a very rare ingredient.
The tiger lobsters are all over ten years old, so the meat is so firm.
If it is not an old lobster, it will not have such a chewy and granular texture.
Hearing the price guessed by Gao Moqi, Xu Yi smiled proudly.
“Not 3,000, not 2,000, not even 1,000.”
Xu Yi raised his right index finger, "Only 100 Chinese Yuan."
Xu Yi specifically reminded of the two words "Huabi".
"100 Chinese dollars?"
Gao Moqi, who had been calm and composed just now, was also shocked by the price.
“Isn’t this selling at a loss?”
This is not only a loss, but a huge loss.
"That's why so many people are rushing to buy it! Moreover, we watched Brother Mo buy those ingredients from Wanrun Fresh Supermarket in the live broadcast room."
"Three hundred thousand for ingredients, and about ten thousand for stall fees and so on. Plus Brother Mo's cooking skills. Brother Mo is losing a lot of money."
"No wonder they don't want to sell it anymore." No one, unless they are a fool, would do such a loss-making business.
Gao Moqi suddenly felt fortunate that he came here today, otherwise missing out on such dumplings would have been a huge regret for him.
"Brother Mo doesn't sell dumplings, not because he's losing money, but because he's tired. He said he wanted to take a break. Maybe he'll start setting up a stall again in a couple of days." The more Xu Yi thought about it, the more he felt that this possibility was very high.
After all, Brother Mo rented the stall for a month.
Don't feel too bad.
"Mo Qi, can't you finish these two dumplings? If so, I don't mind helping you." Xu Yi saw that Gao Mo Qi still had two dumplings left to eat and was about to take action.
The tip of a chopstick hit the back of his hand.
Xu Yi immediately retracted his hand in pain and looked at Gao Moqi with a wronged look on his face.
He thought Gao Moqi didn't want him to eat.
Gao Moqi glanced at him calmly, then handed over the chopsticks, "Use chopsticks."
He is such a grown-up, not a child anymore, but he actually grabbed it with his hands.
It's so unhygienic.
I originally thought that Gao Moqi didn't want me to eat it, but I didn't expect that he actually minded eating it with his hands.
"Haha, I knew it. Mo Qi, you are the best to me."
Xu Yi picked up the chopsticks and finished the dumplings one at a time in just two bites.
After eating, he couldn't help but smell the remaining fragrance on the chopsticks.
This action made Gao Moqi frown again, but he didn't lecture him anymore.
Xu Yi put down his chopsticks reluctantly only after the smell on them had dissipated.
Then, he asked Gao Moqi: "Moqi, how many days do you plan to stay in City B this time?"
Gao Moqi thought for a moment and said, "About a week."
Xu Yi and Gao Moqi were classmates in high school and college.
After graduating from university, Xu Yi became a writer.
Gao Moqi became a gourmet.
Xu Yi has basically settled down in City B, while Gao Moqi has basically no fixed place to live because of his job.
Xu Yi was surprised and asked, "One week? Such a short time? I remember that food competition was only held for a week, right? You are not going to leave after participating in the food competition, right?"
"Yeah." Gao Moqi did plan to do so.
"You are too impatient. Aren't you going to have some fun in City B? There are still a few fun places in our City B."
Xu Yi didn't want Gao Moqi to leave so soon. It's a rare occasion that Gao Moqi comes over, so he has made all the plans and plans to take Gao Moqi out to have some fun.
"No, I have something else to do." There was also a food competition abroad, and he was invited to be a judge.
Therefore, he couldn't stay in City B for too long.
"Okay." Xu Yi didn't ask what it was about, because Gao Moqi's job was basically to be a judge in various food competitions.
Or go to some star-rated hotels and restaurants and serve as a judge.
Anyway, Gao Moqi, the workaholic, is either eating or on his way to eat.
Once upon a time, Xu Yi envied Gao Moqi's job very much.
However, after actually following Gao Moqi to be a food judge, he realized that being a food judge is not that easy.
It’s not as simple as just eating delicious food and seeing if it tastes good.
To be a gourmet, the most basic thing is to have a sensitive tongue.
You need to be able to taste and savor the food and know what ingredients it is made of.
At the same time, you also need to understand how the food you are tasting is prepared.
Only then can we give a true evaluation.
But Xu Yi doesn't have such a sensitive tongue. He only knows what tastes good and what doesn't.
…………
After Song Beichen and Yin Yiyi helped Mo Qingyan set up the stall, they went back.
Because Mo Qingyan was not planning to set up a stall tomorrow, they did not stay.
Dinner was prepared by Chef Zhang.
The dishes he made were still his specialties, but with Mo Qingyan's guidance, the taste of the dishes had improved to a certain extent.
After the live broadcast ended in the evening, Mo Qingyan was looking at the investment contract that Director Feng had prepared for him.
He invested 50 million yuan in the program team, and the contract still needs to be signed.
So, Director Feng brought the contract and asked Mo Qingyan to take a look.
If there is any problem, please modify it.
Mo Qingyan took a quick look at it and felt there was no problem, so she sent the contract to Zhao Quansheng.
Although Mo Qingyan felt that Director Feng would not cheat him, he still had to be on guard against others, so he had to be cautious about the contract.
The contract has just been issued to Zhao Quansheng.
Mo Qingyan received a call from an unfamiliar number.
"Excuse me, is this Mo Qingyan, Mr. Mo?"
"I am."
"Hello, Mr. Mo. I'm Bei Ming, Mr. Bei's secretary. My last name is Wang. Mr. Bei would like to invite you to his home for a cup of tea. Are you free?"
Mo Qingyan knew that the Bei family would definitely take action today, but she didn't expect it to happen so soon.
This is clearly the Hongmen Banquet.
Of course Mo Qingyan couldn't go.
So he said, "I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep if I drink tea in the middle of the night. Let's have some barbecue instead. There's a new barbecue restaurant nearby, so we can go try it."
After saying that, without waiting for the other party to speak, Mo Qingyan hung up the phone.
When he heard that Mo Qingyan was invited to have tea, he refused. He also asked to eat roast lamb.
Bei Xiyue exploded.
"Who the hell is he? He is so lucky that my uncle invites him to our house for tea. How dare he ask for so much?"
Bei Xiyue didn't expect that Mo Qingyan would be so ungrateful.
Zhang Tianhao on the side immediately chimed in, "Mo Qingyan is really too rude. Uncle, you personally invited him, but he still treated him like this."
After the live broadcast, Zhang Tianhao and Bei Xiyue went straight to Bei Wenjie's house to meet the father and son of the Bei family.
This is our first meeting, so of course I have to prepare a gift.
Although the father and son of the Bei family have everything they need, that doesn't mean Zhang Tianhao can just come to them empty-handed without giving them anything.
Zhang Tianhao also knew that no matter how expensive the things he bought were, the Bei father and son would not look at them.
Besides, he doesn't have that much money.
Therefore, he bought some supplements such as Cordyceps and Bird's Nest, and also brought a bottle of wine worth millions.
Originally, Zhang Tianhao had prepared himself to be troubled, but unexpectedly, the attitude of the Bei family father and son towards him was unexpectedly good.
Even Bei Wenjie, who had always been at odds with Bei Xiyue, was polite to him, although not very enthusiastic.
Judging from their attitude towards him, Zhang Tianhao knew that they recognized him.
Before, their attitude towards him was not like this.
Zhang Tianhao thought that his plan with Bei Xiyue to appear on the variety show had worked.
Because his relationship with Bei Xiyue was well known, the Bei family father and son had to recognize him.
After being recognized by the father and son of the Bei family, he was equivalent to being half a member of the Bei family.
Now of course I have to show my loyalty.
Bei Ming was unhappy that Mo Qingyan was so unwilling to give in.
But he didn't show it.
It has always been others who accommodate him, and this is the first time someone asked Zhui to accommodate him.
Bei Ming laughed instead of getting angry, "Haha, young people nowadays are really brave."
Seeing that Bei Ming was actually smiling, Bei Xiyue couldn't help but ask, "Uncle, aren't you angry?"
Given my uncle's personality, this shouldn't happen!
"Angry?" Bei Ming smiled and said to Bei Xiyue: "Xiyue, do you think an elephant would be angry with a tiny ant?"
Although Bei Ming was a little unhappy, he was not angry yet.
In his opinion, he was just a small upstart and not worth making angry.
The reason why he wanted to see Mo Qingyan tonight was because Mo Qingyan had snatched his position as an investor in "Another Life".
He wanted to see who dared to go against their Bei family. What on earth do these young people rely on to come up with hundreds of millions in cash in just one week?
I didn't expect Mo Qingyan to be so disrespectful.
In that case, don't blame him for being rude.
After all, Mo Qingyan snatched the investment from their Bei family, which was a slap in the face of their Bei family.
If he doesn't respond, others will think that the Bei family is easy to bully!
The next day, before dawn, Director Feng called Mo Qingyan.
It is said that overnight, many posts slandering him suddenly appeared on the Internet.
The reason was that someone ate the dumplings he made, got food poisoning, and was admitted to the hospital.
