Daolin picked up a chopstick and put the boiled fish into his mouth. The fish was delicious, not fishy, and melted in your mouth. It tasted really good.
Dao Wuji picked up a chopstick of beef bones. The beef bones were roasted at just the right temperature and garnished with some peppercorns and chili peppers. It tasted spicy and refreshing, especially the bone marrow, which was not fishy and tender, leaving a fragrant aroma in your mouth.
"Well, the chef at City Master Wu's family is very good at cooking. The fish is delicious and spicy, so you can tell he's good at it." Daolin said.
Dao Wuji later reviewed the beef bone with pepper and sesame seeds, and also gave a fair evaluation.
Hearing their comments, Wu Hong's face was full of smiles. He directly picked up the wine bottle and poured wine for them both.
Then came the eating and drinking process. After a restful meal, Dorian asked the question on his mind.
"May I ask, Lord City Lord, we are just chefs here to compete, why are you and General Wu so polite?"
Wu Hong laughed after hearing this. He first had a drink with Daolin, and then said: "To be honest, because King Roshan gave an order, if any town receives the chefs participating in the Master of Chef Competition, then this town will get a The annual tax reduction is a great thing.”
Dolin suddenly realized that there was such a thing, but then he didn't understand it again.
"Is it possible that if we go all the way to the competition venue, the places where we stay will have tax exemptions and exemptions?"
Wu Hong smiled and shook his head and said: "Of course not, this is an unwritten rule here. For example, if you settle here, I will send someone to take you to the competition venue. All the expenses will be borne by us, and when it comes to the competition venue, we will just report it to the authorities.”
Dowling nodded. It turned out that they were not that simple. Unknowingly, they were able to influence the tax revenue of a town.
"It is very presumptuous to say this on this occasion. I hope the two chefs will not be angry. Wu will punish himself with a glass of wine." After Wu Hong said this, he directly picked up the wine glass and drank it down.
Daolin and Dao Wuji immediately picked up the cups and drank them too.
"We feel relieved that we can help you in Wuliang City. Otherwise, we would be embarrassed to eat, drink, live and travel here." Daolin found a reason and said.
"There are still one and a half months until the competition. The journey from Wuliang City to the competition venue will only take more than half a month. You can stay with us during this period. I will send someone to take you around and have fun. ." Wu Hong said with a smile.
Daolin and Dao Wuji nodded. In that case, they should stay here for a while. Daolin also wanted to take this opportunity to consolidate his strength. He had a feeling that if the Dao Furnace was refined for a while, he should be able to break through. We have reached the realm of the emperor.
Just take some time to relax and improve your cooking skills.
When they left the city lord's mansion, Dao Wuji drank a little too much. Daolin supported Dao Wuji and wanted to go back. Wu Di followed him and helped him support Dao Wuji.
"Dad, I'll make you a bowl of hangover soup when you get back later. You can drink some." Dolin said softly.
"Okay, my son's soup will definitely taste delicious." Dao Wuji said with a smile.
"Brother Wu is quite enthusiastic." Dao Wuji said with his tongue raised.
Daolin poked Dao Wuji gently, fearing that he would talk nonsense after drinking. After all, Wu Di was still following him.
Dao Wuji ignored Daolin and continued to talk to himself: "When I have time in the future, I will have to come over and have a drink with him."
When Wu Di heard this, he quickly said: "You are welcome at any time. I will bring a cart of wine over tomorrow. You can go anytime you want. I guarantee there will be wine and food."
Dao Wuji was so happy when he heard this, his whole face was filled with smiles.
Daolin took the time to ask: "I didn't ask at the game just now. The city lord's surname is Wu, and the general's surname is Wu. I wonder if you are related to the city lord?"
Wu Di laughed when he heard this. He said with a proud look: "The city lord is my father, but I became a city defense general because of my own ability, and it has nothing to do with my old man."
Dolin nodded. Doesn't it matter whether his heart is right or not? Everyone knows who your father is, who dares to follow you?
If you grab this position, even if you win it, you won't be able to do it well or last long.
All the way back to the city defense department's annex, Wu Di walked to the door and stopped walking inside.
"Two distinguished guests, I will go back first. I will stay a little ahead. If you have anything, you can come to me at any time." Wu Di said respectfully.
Daolin waved his hand to him, and then helped Dao Wuji back to the room around the pond.
"Why did you drink so much?" Entering the room, Chu Wan'er saw a drunken Dao Wuji and quickly ran over and asked with concern.
"I didn't drink much, I just drank a little fast. Dad looks very happy today." Daolin put Dao Wuji back on the bed and let him lie down.
Chu Wan'er rinsed a towel from a basin nearby and came over to wipe Dao Wuji's face. She looked obviously distressed.
"Mom, take care of dad first. I'll make him a bowl of hangover soup. I'll make sure he wakes up after drinking it." Dolin said softly.
"Don't bother, I'll just take care of him." Chu Wan'er said softly.
"It's okay, it'll be quick." Dolin smiled and left directly.
In fact, Daolin only needs to bring out some divine water to solve the problem, but that seems a bit careless.
When I came to the kitchen, I saw that they had cleaned up the kitchen. I looked at the leftovers they had put aside. The food they cooked for the night was pretty good.
After cleaning the pot again, Dolin prepared to make a bowl of hangover soup. In fact, hangover soup is very simple and only requires white radish and sugar cane.
According to ancient books, hangzejiang can relieve hangover. The principle is that it is made from white radish and sugar cane.
Dowling cleaned the white radish and then began to peel it. There is a layer of skin on the surface of the white radish. This layer of skin must be peeled off first because this layer of skin is very spicy. The radish is rich in mustardin. Therefore, if you want to make the soup refreshing and relieve hangover, the processing of the radish is very critical.
After peeling the skin of the radish, the radish still has an inner layer of skin. If you want the radish soup to be cooked without being spicy, the second layer of inner skin must also be peeled off.
Daolin's speed was very fast. In just a few seconds, he had already peeled a radish, cut the radish into strips, sanded the radish with salt, washed the pickled radish with cold water, and washed away the excess salt. The hangover soup will not be spicy.
Take out the washed radish and drain it. Add water to the casserole and add the radish soup directly. While waiting, cut the sugar cane into strips and set aside.
After the water boils, simmer for three minutes before adding the sugar cane to the pot. Because there are radish in the pot, it cannot be covered when cooking. If it is covered, all the odor of the radish will be trapped in the soup, which will affect the taste of the soup. , Daolin poured the cooked sobering soup into the soup cup.
Returning to Dao Wuji's room with the hangover soup, he had already fallen asleep.
"You can put this soup here. If he wakes up later, I will feed him." Chu Wan'er wiped Daolin's face with a clean towel and said.
Daolin nodded, put down the sobering soup, told Chu Wan'er to rest early, then closed the door and left.
