Chapter 22 (1/2)
On the official road outside the city, a little brother was on his way with an oil paper umbrella, a basket and an old man.
Today's weather is extremely hot. The sun overhead seems to scorch the ground. The bright sun stabs people's eyes, which is very fierce.
”Hey, it's so hot.” The old man took a cloth towel to wipe the sweat on his face and said with emotion: ”this boss is really far from their home.”
The little snake basking in the sun in the roadside grass heard the voice of people and ran away.
”No, fuber, are you tired? Why don't we take a break?” Miguel's forehead was covered with sweat and his face was red. Even if he was holding an umbrella to avoid direct sunlight, the heat from the ground was choking.
Fuber looked up at the distance and said, ”don't rest. It's getting late. It's better to arrive early. It's not good to cook again when it's late. It's not good to give people trouble.”
Miguel said hello.
They went to North Street to find Yu Qingze this morning. They didn't see anyone at the common stall. They looked for a circle in North Street and didn't see the familiar snack stall. Later, I asked the old lady who sold tea eggs next to Yu Qingze snack stall. Only then did I know that boss Yu was injured in a robbery and rested at home. I'm not sure if he will come or when.
When they heard this, they were stunned. How could such a thing happen? Then they thought again, oh, it's bad. If boss Yu and they don't come, what can we do if the second young master gets tired of those porridge? Boss Yu knows so much fresh food that he won't come. Where can he find such a person in the future?
Moreover, Fubo also wants to discuss the practice of delicious food with Yu Qingze. After consulting Yu Qingze about the seafood porridge last time, he went back and tried it several times. As expected, it's much better. The second young master of their family can eat it.
They immediately went back to the house and reported to the master. With the master's permission, they went to the kitchen to get some food, and brought some gifts to visit the doctor.
It's just that Niutou village is far enough away!
Boss Yu, it's not easy for them to go so far to set up a snack stand in the city every day.
They were in a hurry. On the way, they asked two more people. After walking for more than half an hour, they finally found the Changle home in Niutou village.
To the surprise of Miguel and Fubo, it turned out that boss Yu was only on loan at his boy Changle's house.
”Who are you looking for?” Grandpa Chang saw two strangers at the gate of the hospital and came out and asked.
Miguel stepped forward and asked, ”old man, is this boss Yu Qingze's house?”
Grandpa Chang nodded and replied, ”yes, are you two?”
Miguel said with a smile, ”Sir, I'm Miguel, the servant of the Cai family in the south of the city. This is Fubo. I was lucky to get several porridge recipes from boss Yu. The second young master of our family likes it very much. Today, I heard that boss Yu was injured. The owner specially asked us to visit him. ”
Grandpa Chang hasn't seen Miguel and Fubo, but he has heard from them. As soon as they heard that it was them, they quickly let them in and said, ”they have gone to the mountains. They should come back later. Come in and sit down. It's hot and hard for you to run.”
Miguel and fuber entered the house.
Miguel smiled and replied, ”Sir, you're welcome. Boss Yu is injured. We should come and have a look. This is the master's wish. Please accept it. ” With that, Miguel handed the basket to them, containing the gifts they brought and some fish food.
”Oh, just come. What else do you bring. Sit down and I'll pour you water. ” Grandpa Chang put the basket on one side of the stool, then went to the kitchen and poured two cups of cold boiled water for them. When they drank, he brought them two bowls of jelly.
”Come on, eat a bowl of jelly, cool, cool.”
”What is this?” Miguel looked at the crystal clear jelly in the bowl and asked in surprise. Another fresh food!
Fuber's eyes brightened when he saw it.
”This is jelly. Try it quickly to reduce the heat.” Grandpa Chang said.
They curiously picked up the spoon and took a bite. The cool feeling was immediately conveyed from the mouth to the brain. It was a cool feeling. After eating a whole bowl, the whole person was refreshing, his mind was dazed by the heat was sober, and the fatigue of driving for more than half an hour was also reduced.
”Good taste! Elder brother Chang, what is this jelly made of? ” As soon as fuber finished eating, he asked because of his career.
Grandpa Chang smiled and said, ”some things in the mountains were made by Azer. You can ask him when he comes back.”
This thing can be sold on the street. Grandpa Chang knows whether to let Miguel and Fubo know that Yu Qingze has the right to decide.
He didn't get the answer, and Fubo was not disappointed. Boss Yu might sell such a special food. Naturally, his practice should be kept confidential and can't be disclosed at will, but he was more curious.
He said with a smile, ”OK.”
Grandpa Chang talked with them for a while. Seeing that it was not early, he began to wash rice and cook. Fubo was going to help cook. Grandpa Chang quickly stopped him and said, ”how can you do it? Sit and wait for them to come back and let you taste different flavors.”
Fu Bo's heart moved, ”but boss Yu's craft?”
Grandpa Chang laughed and said, ”I don't know yet. Let's see at that time. Anyway, brother, you'll wait.”
In the mountains, Chang Le watched Yu Qingze pick off the pale yellow white fungus like chrysanthemum on the dead wood one by one, and anxiously gestured to one side.
Chang Hao translated and said, ”brother Yu, my brother said this thing can't be eaten. Someone used to eat it. His whole body is red and itchy and has blisters. It's poisonous.”
Yu Qingze said with a smile, ”did he take it back and cook it directly?”
Chang Le nodded.
Yu Qingze said, ”it's called Tremella. You can't eat it until it's dried. If you eat it directly, you should soak it in the water for at least three-quarters of an hour. Otherwise, once you eat it, it will cause skin itching. However, this is a good thing. It nourishes Yin and lungs. It is especially nutritious. It is better than fir fungus, tea fungus and fungus. ”
The two brothers were stunned.
Chang Hao stared and asked, ”so good?”
Yu Qingze nodded, ”that's good. Therefore, you should help me pick all these quickly so that I can go back early. ”
Two people listened and quickly picked it up. Whether it is poisonous or not, since elder brother Yu said it was a good thing, it must be a good thing.
”Pick the big ones, keep the small ones first, and pick them when you grow up.” Yu Qingze asked again.
”Can this also sell for money?” Chang Hao asked again while picking.
Yu Qingze nodded, ”you can sell it. But we don't sell these. We'll save them for ourselves first. ”
Although there seem to be many Tremella in this forest, it can't be sold continuously in batches. You'd better keep it for yourself. Moreover, people here don't know how to eat it. They don't know its value. It's estimated that they can't sell it at a good price. They have to spread the eating method to have an effect.
However, after picking the food in the mountain, we can consider mobilizing the villagers to find it and buy it. Anyway, people here think it can't be eaten, and there should be no competition.
Yu Qingze thought about his future plans silently and sighed that he was right to come to the mountain today. He not only dug two bamboo shoots, but also found immortal leaves. Changle picked up half a box of fungi and a handful of black fungus. However, the biggest surprise was to find the tremella!
This forest is close to the stream. There are a lot of dead trees, damp and many fungi.
When he was picking black fungus, he found a Tremella by chance. He was so surprised that he asked Chang Le if there was anything else. Changle took them into the forest.
Here, there is a large area of Tremella!
Yu Qingze's feeling was like suddenly being hit by five hundred thousand, a huge surprise.
In previous lives, tremella was basically cultivated artificially, and there were few wild Tremella like this. All wild animals sell very expensive.
Several people picked all the big Tremella in the small forest. Seeing that it was getting late, they went back. The big basket carried by Changle is full of mountain treasures.
Back home, several people were surprised to find Miguel and Fubo coming.
Knowing their intention, Yu Qingze said gratefully, ”Miguel, Fubo, thank you, and please thank you for me. It's very kind of you.”
Miguel answered and asked, ”how could someone rob you?”
Yu Qingze replied, ”I met a few gangsters on the official road and moved my hands.”
Miguel frowned.
Chang Hao said angrily, ”brother MI, Fubo, you don't know, we've had bad luck recently.”
Miguel asked, ”what bad luck? Isn't business good? ”
Chang Hao broke his finger and counted to MIGUEL: ”let me tell you, since we opened the snack stand, first a thief came to our house to steal cold skin, and then a few days ago he met someone who came to find fault. He put the insects in our noodles and said our cold noodles were not clean. You said it was hateful! Then the next day, when we came home, we were robbed. Brother Yu was injured in order to protect us. He was beaten with many sticks, bruises on his back and a knife on his shoulder. He couldn't lift his arms with such a long cut. ”
Then Chang Hao compared his palm, it was so long!
Yu Qingze was washing his face. When he heard what Chang Hao said, the corners of his mouth were slightly hooked. Chang Hao's little Baba also has the advantages of Baba. At critical moments, he can always bring some unexpected surprises.
Like now.
All kinds of news on the street are very well-informed. After chatting with Miguel and Fubo for a while, and the news learned from the guests chatting with the owner of the nearby small stall when doing business, Yu Qingze has basically understood the identity of the Cai family in the south of the city. He is an unexpected figure.
However, if we can have a good relationship with them, it will be of unexpected help to our future business.
When Miguel heard the speech, he looked at Fubo and said, ”you've only been open for ten days?”
Chang Hao nodded angrily and deeply: ”it's not. I've met some inexplicable things in three or two days. Why is it so difficult to do a good small business!”
At this time, Yu Qingze came over. As usual, Hao shouted a wet cloth towel on his face and said with a smile: ”go and wash your face. It's like a mud monkey.”
Three people are drilling around in the mountains. They are not like mud monkeys.
Chang Hao smiled and walked away with a cloth towel. Yu Qingze and two humanitarians: ”Fubo, MI Ge'er, you have a good time today.”
