Chapter 79
"Quanjude Palace Roast Duck!"
When Lu Shan heard this, he thought about it carefully and said,"If it's just the recipe, it shouldn't be much different. The main difference is the ingredients."
"I once had the Imperial Roast Duck from Quanjude, which cost hundreds of dollars for just one piece. It was the kind that you couldn’t buy even if you had money, and it was only available to some high-ranking officials."
"The method of roasting duck was discovered after hundreds of years of research and thousands of experiments."
"From the selection of ducks, to the year and location of the seasoning, to the use of charcoal fire, etc., there are strict requirements. Finally, the chef carefully grills and slices them, which is naturally extraordinary."
"If we really want to compare, your roast duck, unless you also have this kind of convenience, it is difficult to compare with Quanjude Palace Roast Duck."
"However, the taste of this roast duck is no worse than the Quanjude roast duck currently on sale, and even better. So whether the roast duck can be better than Quanjude's palace roast duck, you can think about it yourself."
Guan Shan said carefully, commenting on the two roast ducks.
He did not ask whether the roast duck recipe in He Daqing's hand was so particular, but just asked He Daqing to think about it himself, which meant that he had no idea about the roast duck recipe in He Daqing's hand.
He Daqing nodded after hearing Guan Shan's euphemistic narration, indicating that he already knew.
He now almost understood the classification of system formulas.
The primary formula evaluated by the system is almost the intermediate formula in reality, and is slightly better than the intermediate, that is, above the average in reality.
The intermediate formula is equivalent to the level of some old brands, which is slightly better than their representative products, but not much better. The advantage is that the materials are ordinary and can be mass-produced.
The advanced formula is equivalent to the level of court tribute. The materials in the formula have all kinds of particularities, and the ingredients and condiments are also from all over the world. The production cost is high and it is not suitable for mass production. It is equivalent to luxury food. Eating is not just about the taste, but also about the taste.
The top-level recipe has exceeded the existing level of food on Earth. It is more particular about making it. Not only are there requirements for the variety and selection of ingredients and ingredients, but also strict regulations on the year, picking season, storage and transportation. It is more than ten times more particular than the so-called court tribute.
Such food, let alone mass production, is difficult to produce even in small batches. I am afraid that only the real top power holders can collect all the materials. Ordinary people can't eat it even if they have money.
As for the possible god-level recipes in the level 5 mall?
He Daqing is very skeptical whether the entire Blue Star can gather all the materials required for a god-level recipe.
Of course, this is also He Daqing's own speculation. What the truth is, he can only know after he unlocks the level 5 mall.
Skip the topic of roast duck.
He Daqing asked Guan Shan to comment on the other four dishes of Tan's dishes.
""Yes, your dishes are no worse than those of Liu Qingyuan who came back to the restaurant. If you come back to the restaurant and reopen it, you can definitely make it with your cooking skills."
After tasting the food, Lu Shan praised He Daqing's cooking skills.
Although He Daqing's current cooking skills are still far behind those of the famous chefs in some time-honored restaurants, you have to know that the chefs in those time-honored restaurants have been professional chefs for more than ten or twenty years, and the youngest is forty-five years old.
He Daqing is only in his thirties now, and he is young and strong.
If he can concentrate on honing his skills for a few years, he will definitely not be much worse than the chefs of those time-honored restaurants.
A forty
-year-old famous chef.
This is already a manifestation of excellent qualifications.
If you replace him with someone with poor qualifications, he may not be able to become a level five chef for his entire life, and he will not be able to touch the stove of a time-honored restaurant.
"Hey, I am satisfied with what you said, second uncle."
He Daqing was also very happy to hear about Shan's evaluation.
After all, he only looked at the cooking evaluation experience level on the system panel every day, but he had no accurate concept of how much his cooking skills had improved.
There was no way, because he could only cook two home-cooked dishes all day. It
's not that home-cooked dishes are bad, but the conditions are limited, and they can't show his progress at all.
Now with the evaluation of old man Guan, he finally has a substantial concept of his cooking skills, unlike before, when he just relied on guessing.
"Come, Ziqing, eat some food and drink some wine.……"
As soon as He Daqing was in a good mood, he started to invite his cousin Guan Ziqing to eat and drink, just like he was at home.
If outsiders saw this scene, they would probably think that this was He Daqing's home and Guan Ziqing was the outsider. After three rounds of drinks , He Daqing discussed the wedding and wedding banquet preparations in a few days with his second uncle Guan Shan.
"Second uncle, I am young and I don't know much about this, so you have to help me. If there is anything that needs to be prepared in advance, just tell me directly. This time, it's all up to you."
Yes.
That's right.
Although I am over 30 years old, I have been married once and have two children.
But I am still young and don't know anything, so I must ask you as an elder to take care of it.
In this matter, He Daqing is asking for help from others. No matter whether he really doesn't understand or pretends not to understand, he must lower his posture and show the attitude of asking for help.
"Okay, stop playing tricks on me. You are still young and don’t understand anything. Do you really think I know nothing?"
"You were less than 20 years old at the time, yet you dared to prepare wedding banquets by yourself. Over the past ten years, you must have prepared at least a thousand or eight hundred wedding banquets, right?"
"You still have the nerve to say that you don't understand this kind of thing. I think you just want to be lazy and use me, your second uncle, as your only friend."
Luan Shan sneered at He Daqing's words and mercilessly exposed his little thoughts.
Then, he changed the subject and said,"But for this matter, I, the old man, really have to be responsible. If you don't let me take care of it, I will not be happy. After all, how can I not care about the marriage of Luan Shan's own nephew?"
"The only thing that makes me angry is your unreliable father. He has been gone for almost twenty years and there has been no news from him until now. I don’t know whether he is dead or alive now. He even missed his children’s two marriages?"
"Do you think there is such a father?"
Speaking of the unreliable father of his predecessor, Guan Yushan was also very angry.
It was fortunate that his unreliable eldest brother was not here, otherwise Guan Yushan felt that he had to slap them both in the face.
Hearing Guan Yushan talking about the unreliable father of his predecessor.
He Daqing's heart moved and asked:"Second uncle, when you mention this, I suddenly remembered something. I have been wondering whether I should ask you."
"What's up?"
"It's like this. Two days ago, I saw a man in Xiaomofang Hutong. He looked to be in his early forties and looked very similar to you. I almost recognized the wrong person."
He Daqing made up an excuse and continued,"Later, I asked someone and they said his name was Zheng Wentian. He was a famous grain merchant in our city. I wonder if you know him?" He
Daqing thought of Zheng Wentian.
After all, Zheng Wentian is also a character played by Ni Dahong. In terms of appearance, he must be very similar to He Daqing and Guan Shan.
Of course, if you insist that the two look-alikes look exactly the same, that is definitely impossible.
One is a cook, one is a retired cadre, and the other is a wealthy capitalist businessman.
The identities, ages, living conditions, life experiences, etc. of the three are different. It would be strange if they look exactly the same.
So it is definitely impossible to have a look-alike. At most, they look very similar, and outsiders will think that the three are related at first glance.
"Zheng Wentian!" Guan Shan was not surprised at all when he heard this name. He said calmly,"Of course I know this person, and I am very familiar with him, because……"
Speaking of Shan, he paused for a moment, then sighed,"Because he is your third uncle, my biological brother."
Okay.
Although he had already guessed it in his heart, He Daqing still couldn't help complaining.
Damn, what kind of worldview is this.
The worlds of several TV dramas are combined together, how can they be so forced to draw relationships.
I can only say... your circle is really too complicated, and you can't help but accept it.
He Daqing complained in his heart, but he had to show shock on his face, and asked:"No, second uncle, what's going on, how come a third uncle suddenly appeared to me, and from what you said, he is still my biological third uncle."
"Could it be that my unreliable grandfather, after abandoning my grandmother and my father and running away, married more than one woman?"
He Daqing was not complaining.
It was just that the relationship here was too complicated, which directly shocked him.
When Guan Lushan heard He Daqing's story about his father, he couldn't help but twitch his mouth. He stretched out his hand and knocked on his head, saying speechlessly:"How can you make up your elders like this?"
Although he said so. (babj)
However, Guan Lushan was speechless to his unreliable father. (To read the exciting novel, go to Feilu Novel Network!)
"This matter is actually a long story."
As the saying goes, a child without a mother is a long story.
Through Guan Shan's narration, He Daqing finally figured out the story.
The incident happened in the year when the Eight-Nation Army entered the city of Sijiu. He Daqing's stepfather fell in love with a widow, Guan Shan's mother.
Later, this matter was somehow known by He Daqing's grandmother. He Daqing's grandmother was also a powerful person. After knowing this, she directly kicked He Daqing's grandfather out of the house.[]
So, He Daqing's grandfather took Guan Guafu out of Sijiucheng and went to Dongshan Province.
Later.
A few years after Guan Guafu was born, his mother Guan Guafu died of illness.
And He Daqing's grandfather, out of loneliness, found another widow, Zheng, and married her to someone else.
This widow Zheng was Zheng Wentian's mother.
Later, first there was a disaster in Dongshan Province, and then the Japanese attacked Qingdao. Most of the people could not survive, and had to embark on the road to Guandong with their families.
He Daqing's grandfather originally wanted to take Zheng Guafu and Guan Guafu's brothers back to Sijiucheng.
But thinking of He Daqing's grandmother, he felt that he had no face to come back, so he wrote a letter and asked Guan Guafu to come to Beijing by himself, and he took Zheng Guafu and Zheng Wentian to the Northeast.
Who would have thought that after a few years, the Japanese invaders entered the Northeast, and many people in the Northeast had to flee south under the increasing persecution of the Japanese invaders.
It was also under such circumstances that Zheng Wentian brought his family to Sijiu City and found his brother Guan Yushan. With the support of Guan Yushan, he gradually became a major grain merchant in Sijiu City.
In fact, Guan Yushan had thought about letting Zheng Wentian return to his ancestral home at the beginning.
But at that time, He Daqing's father had already run away with the widow Cai, and He Daqing cut off contact with Guan Yushan because of this matter.
So Zheng Wentian's matter was left unresolved.
He Daqing:"…………"
All right.
Although the story is a bit tortuous and bizarre, it can still make sense.
Anyway, after listening to this story, He Daqing really admired his cheap grandfather to the extreme.
Awesome!
It's impossible not to be convinced.
After a long time, He Daqing came back to his senses and asked curiously:"What happened to my grandfather later? Why didn't he come to Sijiucheng with Zheng... Third Uncle?"
When Guan Lushan heard this, he didn't hide it and said directly:"In fact, when your grandfather and your third uncle were in the Northeast, they lived a good life. After all, your great uncle was taking care of them there."
He Daqing was shocked when he heard this, and said in disbelief:"What, I have an uncle in the Northeast?"
Good guy.
How many relatives does the old He family have.
Surprisingly, there is such a relative in that corner of the Northeast.
Facing He Daqing's inquiry, Guan Lushan's face was a little unnatural, and he said:"You don't need to ask more about your great uncle. I'd better continue to tell you about your grandfather and your third uncle."
"After the Japanese invaded Northeast China, their true nature was exposed after a while. Your uncle really didn't want to live under the rule of the Japanese invaders, so he brought his family to Sijiucheng."
"And what about your grandfather?"
"It was because he was old, and he always felt guilty about your grandma and your dad, and felt that he had no face to come back, so he stayed in the Northeast with your grandma Zheng, and died when the Japanese surrendered in 1944 or 1945. He lived a peaceful life in his later years."
Luan Shan intuitively skipped He Daqing's great-uncle from the Northeast, and explained the matter of his adopted grandfather.
But the more Luan Shan didn't want to mention his great-uncle from the Northeast, the more uneasy He Daqing felt.
What does this mean?
Why can't he ask about his great-uncle from the Northeast?
Is there something wrong with the identity of his great-uncle from the Northeast?
Also, his adopted grandfather is really a dog. No wonder he would rather go to the Northeast than come to the old city. It seems that he went to join his brother.
It's a pity that he thought he went to the Northeast to escape famine.
He Daqing complained in his heart, and then asked cautiously:"Second uncle, is there something wrong with the identity of my great-uncle from the Northeast?"
"Don't ask about things you shouldn't ask about, or there will be no benefit if you ask too much." When Guan Yushan heard this question, he instantly became serious and said to He Daqing and Guan Ziqing who were listening attentively:"Regarding your great-uncle, it's best to keep it in your heart and don't mention it to anyone, understand?"
When He Daqing heard this, he knew that his guess had come true.
Maybe his great-uncle from the Northeast is really a big shot.
Come to think of it.
If his third uncle Zheng Wentian wanted to become a big grain merchant in Sijiu City, it might not be enough to rely on Guan
Yushan's support alone. There must be a source of grain. If there was the support from his great-uncle from the Northeast.
Everything seemed to be possible.
After all, during the Republic of China, the three northeastern provinces were already major grain-producing provinces in the country.
The climate is humid, and it is black soil that produces a lot of crops, so the grain output is also very high, mainly corn, rice, soybeans and sorghum.
Similarly, it is precisely because of the high grain output in the three northeastern provinces, the Sino-Soviet Railway and a large amount of resources, so The Northeast had its development foundation during the Republic of China period and became one of the most powerful warlords in the country.
But during the Republic of China and the Anti-Japanese War period, was there such a capable person in the Northeast?
He Daqing pondered for a long time but couldn't figure out who it was.
After all, during the Anti-Japanese War, the Northeast was the base camp of the Japanese Kwantung Army, and it was run like a railway.
His great uncle was able to support a big grain merchant like Zheng Wentian. Could it be that he surrendered to the enemy and became a traitor?
Seeing He Daqing deep in thought and not speaking, Lu Yanshan could guess what he was thinking, and couldn't help but said,"Okay, stop thinking about it. Your great uncle is not a traitor. He just committed a big crime and is gone now.""
"You just need to know that there is such an uncle. After all, your uncle was shot and there is no grave. You can't even find a place to burn some paper for him."
Guan Yushan sighed faintly, but he was still unwilling to say the name of He Daqing's uncle from the Northeast.
This made He Daqing even more nervous.
This is a big deal, and he has been shot, and there is not even a grave.
Who would not be nervous if they have such an uncle.
He Daqing looked up and looked at Guan Yushan who was about to continue asking about the situation.
As a result, when he saw Guan Yushan's face, he was stunned, and then his brain turned rapidly.
He seemed to have guessed who his mysterious uncle from the Northeast was..
