Mag prepared a table of dishes, and Mara finally made the cold pork tongue.
Looking at the brightly colored, evenly sliced, and exquisitely arranged plate of cold pork tongue, Mag nodded slightly.
Previously, he watched the whole process of Ma La making this dish. Overall, it was pretty good. She did everything she needed to do, and the degree of completion was extremely high.
It can be seen that she has indeed studied and practiced carefully.
Mag is quite satisfied with this apprentice.
"Try it." Mara stood at the table, hands behind her back, looking at Mag nervously.
Mag took the chopsticks, picked up a piece of pig tongue, put it in front of his nose and sniffed it gently, raised his eyebrows slightly, and then fed the pig tongue into his mouth.
The slightly crispy pig tongue is coated with red oil and hot sauce, and the marinade is soaked in. It becomes more and more fragrant the more you chew it, it is really good.
Mag put down his chopsticks, looked at Mara and nodded with a smile, "It's not bad, but it's still far from the level of a thousand plates that can be sold in a tavern. There is something wrong with the refining of the red oil, the burnt smell is a bit strong, and the taste of pig tongue is There is still room for improvement, which requires a long period of practice to understand.”
"Okay, I understand!" Mara listened carefully, and then nodded solemnly.
"I think it's enough to serve as an appetizer in a tavern. If this dish is not available, the Saipan tavern will reopen and the guests will just stare at the empty tables." Effie also picked up a piece of pig tongue to taste and interjected. road.
"It's delicious. Sister Mara's cooking skills have improved." Amy chewed the pig tongue and said happily.
"Being a tavern still requires some pursuit." Mag shook his head and looked at Effie and said: "Quality can determine the difference between a tavern and other taverns. I hope that Saipan Tavern will always be that exquisite and beautiful existence. It's almost a kind of Poison, once you get started, you will lose your bottom line."
Effie watched Mag being silent for a while, then nodded and said, "I understand."
Although he has become a hands-off shopkeeper, Mag still hopes that the Saipan Tavern can stick to its true intentions.
After lunch, Effie said her goodbyes and left.
After taking over the Saipan Tavern, the first thing she had to do was recruit a group of new employees.
Although Saipan Tavern already has six waiters, this is far from enough.
After all, not everyone can perform multiple functions like Mag. Cashiers, waiters, kitchen staff... all have to be allocated.
It is obviously unrealistic for Saipan Tavern to reopen immediately. She has to reorganize a team.
"Let's go to the opera this afternoon." Mag said to everyone after putting away the dishes.
"Are you looking at Miss Black Cat?!" Amy's eyes lit up and she asked.
Annie also looked up at Mag, also looking forward to it.
"Yes, now the Black Cat Opera House has moved to our street, let's go and take a look." Mag nodded with a smile, picked up the large bag of clothes, and led the family and Mara towards the different streets. Walk towards the Black Cat Opera House in the distance.
Soon Mag came to Building 101, which was once a dusty circus venue and was completely new after being cleaned.
There is a simple wooden board hanging on the door, which reads: Black Cat Opera Company
It rained a little bit in Luodu yesterday and the paint peeled off a bit.
Um……
In a different place, there is still a feeling of poverty.
It is indeed rare to see such a miserable opera troupe.
The door of the opera house was ajar, but there was a wooden sign hanging on the door, which read the show time. The afternoon show started at one o'clock, which was still half an hour away.
"I forgot to mention that it's not time to start yet." Mara shrugged and said embarrassedly.
"It's okay, I just have something to talk to Miss Vicki about." Mag smiled and walked in the door first.
Mara quickly followed.
Irina followed her two children through the door, and Anne was holding a picture album in her arms.
The light inside the opera house is a bit dim, and the sunlight coming in from the small window is not enough to provide sufficient light.
Probably because of poverty, there were no oil lamps anywhere except the stage, and they were not lit at this time.
The central stage has been simply renovated, and the newly painted table top makes it look a bit like an opera house.
It's a pity that the seats under the stage are too simple, with long benches spread out one after another, making it seem a bit crowded and messy.
Watching an opera in this environment would not be a particularly good experience.
Everyone in the opera troupe had just had lunch and was about to take a rest. When they heard the noise coming from the door, they all looked outside.
"Hello, the afternoon session hasn't come yet, please come back later." Old Man Mi came forward with a smile.
"Old Man Mi, this is my master. He is here to see the leader." Mara jumped out and said to Old Man Mi.
Old Man Mi came closer and finally saw Mag's face clearly, with a bit of surprise on his face, "It's you!"
The Black Cat Opera Troupe was able to move here from a dilapidated courtyard and go from being ignored to being on the right track, all thanks to this noble man in front of them.
He not only gave them the venue, but also gave them money to tide them over. This kindness is remembered in the hearts of everyone in the opera company.
"Captain! The benefactor is here!" Old Man Mi turned around and shouted.
Everyone in the opera troupe immediately gathered around and smiled when they saw the Mag family.
They were deeply impressed by this family, mainly because the two little girls were so cute that it was hard to forget them.
Vicki, who was wearing a black Lolita, also walked quickly from behind the stage, stopped in front of Mag, with a slight smile on her face: "You are finally back."
"I came here today. I heard that your opera troupe has opened for business, so I planned to watch a performance. It seems that I came early." Mag also smiled.
Mag was still a little in awe of this girl with a dual personality, because you didn't know what personality she would turn into at the next moment.
"It's true that the opening time hasn't come yet, but please sit here. I haven't thanked you properly about the opera house." Vicky led Mag and the others to the captain's room at the back.
It was said to be the head's room, but it was just a simple small office, with a lame wooden table with one leg added to it, and two long benches.
Vicki's seat is an old wooden chair, which probably serves as a boss's chair.
"The theater has just started, and it's a bit shabby. It's a joke." Vicky said calmly, not feeling inferior at all.
"It's nice to have a place to sit." Mag's evaluation of her improved a bit.
"Thank you for providing a venue for the Black Cat Opera Troupe and giving so much support." Vicky bowed to Mag and said gratefully.
"You're welcome, it's your talent that impressed me." Mag smiled and waved his hand, "Besides, isn't this a mutually beneficial business?"
Vicki also smiled, but her gratitude to Mag in her heart did not diminish.
Mag's investment and support for their opera troupe was like providing help in times of need, saving them from the quagmire and bringing them back from the edge of disbandment.
Vicki will always remember this kindness in her heart.
"There is actually one more thing I want to do when I come here this time. Annie has already drawn the story of Miss Black Cat. Please see if it meets expectations." Mag said.
Annie stepped forward and handed the picture album she was holding in her arms to Vicky.
