Chapter 170: State Banquet Level

"Oh, two people traveled back and forth one thousand fourteen, or first class cabin. Tsk tsk tsk tsk." After getting on the plane, Bai Renzong patted Han Jiayi's little head and praised, "My Mumu is too capable, right?"

Han Jiayi rolled his eyes from the side, turned her head and looked out the window and stopped talking. Seeing this, Bai Renzong touched her little head with a doting heart: "Okay, it's getting late, so let's take a break on the plane."

"Well..." Han Jiayi muttered, then leaned against the back of the chair and closed her eyes.

At three o'clock in the morning, Bai Renzong and Han Jiayi came to the hotel with their luggage.

"Hmph..." Han Jiayi threw herself on the bed, kicking her legs and hammering the pillow, obviously still sulking.

Bai Renzong suppressed the smile in his heart and helped Han Jiayi take off his shoes: "Okay, let's take a break early. I have to go to the store tomorrow. How can I be energetic if I don't rest?"

Han Jiayi was still lying on the bed without saying anything, so Bai Renzong scratched her feet.

"Hate!" Han Jiayi immediately shrank her feet back, hugged her legs and shrank into a ball on the bed, staring at him alertly.

"I'll take a shower and come." Bai Renzong kissed her on the face, then stood up and took a shower.

When he came out after taking a shower, Han Jiayi had already shrank under the blanket, revealing only a small head.

As soon as Bai Renzong went to bed, Han Jiayi immediately came up and muttered, "It's so cold..."

"I'm finally not angry? It seems that my nature of fearing the cold has overcome my anger." Bai Renzong teased Han Jiayi's little butt.

Han Jiayi raised her head and glared at him fiercely: "You must be laughing at me in your heart!"

"I am laughing, but not laughing, but my aunt laughing." Bai Renzong replied, "What should I do if my girlfriend is so cute?"

"Oh, let's not mention that!" Han Jiayi buried her face in his chest and said coquettishly, "We just pretend that it hasn't happened!"

"Okay, okay." Bai Renzong nodded, and then said in pain: "Oh, this female hero, I seem to be poisoned. I need you to help me suck the poison out of my body!"

"Tsk!" Han Jiayi hammered him angrily, "Improper!"

Bai Renzong smiled and said, "If you are poisoned, I will do the same for you."

"Hmph..." Han Jiayi glared at him, but still got under the blanket.

The next morning, He Guang's family and Xiaobei and his wife also arrived at the hotel to meet them.

Bai Renzong met Xiaobei's boyfriend for the first time. His height and weight should be around 178. However, despite his broad figure and strong expression, he looked very honest and honest. He was a young man with a very kind face.

"Hello, my name is Wang Nan." The other party shook hands with Bai Renzong.

"Oh?" Han Jiayi turned to Wang Bei, "You two are so good, both of them have surnames Wang, one in the south and the other in the north."

"This is called fate, and you don't have to worry about who the child will take in the future." Wang Bei smiled proudly with a smile on his waist.

Then they divided into two groups, He Guang and his family went to the hospital for treatment, while Bai Renzong and his team came to visit a Cantonese tea restaurant in Xitai City. This restaurant is a relatively famous breakfast shop here, with rich breakfast content and affordable prices.

"I haven't eaten the Cantonese tea restaurant." Bai Renzong flipped through the menu and said, then he took a look at the dish above at a glance and said with interest: "A 98-yuan Wellington Steak? Come and see what the difference is with the Wellington Steak that is more than 600 yuan made by my Mumu. The price can be six or seven times different."

After a pause, Bai Renzong continued to sweep: "Give another char siu bun, pork chop bun... black silk milk tea."

"Why is it all bread?" Han Jiayi said with her chin and took the menu from him. "Isn't this pig hand rice and roast goose rice? Let's have a double-square rice. Xiaobei, what do you want with your boyfriend?"

"Can you get a little more?" Wang Bei asked with a smile, "Eat a little more, I can't finish it and give it to my boyfriend."

"Of course." Bai Renzong replied immediately. He actually wanted to taste more. After all, he was the UP owner of the shop. Of course, he had to show fans as much dishes as possible, but it was not easy to waste food, so he didn't dare to add more.

It would be even better if Wang Bei’s boyfriend helped them deal with the endless food.

"Then let's have an egg tart, another pineapple bread, and then a bowl of wonton noodles, right? Let's have another shrimp dumpling and rice noodles..." Wang Bei swept around and nodded with satisfaction: "Let's do it first."

Soon, a large table of bread, noodles and rice were served, and Wang Bei also started shooting opposite him.

Bai Renzong cleared his throat and gave an opening remark, briefly introducing: "Hello everyone, we are now in Xitai City. Xitai City is a famous special economic zone and a first-tier city in China, so the catering culture here is relatively mixed, and the local dishes tend to be the same as this. Today we came to a Cantonese morning tea recommended by fans, which is also quite famous locally."

Speaking of this, Bai Renzong pulled one of them in front of him and smiled: "Of course I am most interested in, this one is the one. The 98-yuan Wellington Steak! To be honest, I have seen the 98-yuan Wellington Steak, and it is the first time I have seen the 98-yuan Wellington Steak. How can I reduce the cost of this thing to sell it to 98?"

Then, Bai Renzong looked at the "Wellington Steak" in front of him.

It is completely different from the round Wellington steak made by Han Jiayi. The appearance of the Wellington steak in front of him is like a rugged mountain, and it is difficult to associate it with Wellington steak.

Bai Renzong shrugged, cut off a small piece and ate it.

"Emm..." Bai Renzong frowned and fell into deep thoughts, "How to say it, the outside is covered with pastry, the bottom is ham and mushroom sauce, and the inside is beef. If you want to talk about the composition, it is indeed the composition of Wellington steak, but..."

As he said that, Bai Renzong pulled the pastry on the outside: "This pastry is wrapped in a casual manner, so the thickness varies. This leads to some places being very crispy and dry. The ham below is the cheap lunch meat, and the semi-finished product for mushroom sauce is that kind of canned mushroom sauce. The beef inside is a thin slice of synthetic meat... At this cost, it is estimated to be about 40 yuan."

"Do you mean the boss earn you fifty dollars with tears?" Han Jiayi covered her mouth and said happily.

"That's not the case." Bai Renzong said, pointing to the surroundings, "Do you know how much the rent is per square meter in this place? In the prime location in the city center, there is only such a small shop with a total of more than 60 square meters. The monthly rent is probably 50,000 or 60,000 yuan."

"Oh, there is nothing we can do in first-tier cities..." Han Jiayi sighed.

Bai Renzong tasted and reviewed the other breakfasts in this store one by one, and summarized them: "The price is affordable, but the quality is just that. There are three reasons why it is popular: the first is the good location, the second is the low price, and the third is that you can take it and eat it while walking, which is very suitable for young people in first-tier cities with fast-paced life."

After the filming, they started eating seriously, but they ordered too much. Bai Renzong ate a Wellington steak, and then he tasted a little of each one and was basically full. Han Jiayi and Wang Bei were not very good at fighting power. The remaining half of the table was cleaned by Wang Bei's boyfriend, which was about 1.5 times that of Bai Renzong in terms of combat power.

"Hmph, our An Nan is amazing?" Wang Bei proudly hugged his boyfriend's arm and showed off.

"You should still remind your boyfriend to pay attention." Bai Renzong said with some concern, "Being too fat will affect your health."

"He had a physical examination last year. The fat content of him is 20%. It's not considered exceeding the standard, he's slightly fat." Wang Bei said seriously, "This is called solidity."

"I like you to be fatter, too." Han Jiayi said to him with resentment.

"Why?" Bai Renzong frowned, "Do you don't like handsome guys?"

"That's right, there are many benefits." Han Jiayi said with her little hands, "First, the chubby hugging is very soft; second, the chubby hugging is safe and will not worry about you flirting outside; third, the chubby hugging means that I am an excellent chef..."

"Hey, okay." Bai Renzong grabbed her hand and kissed her and interrupted her, "It's almost time. Let's go and take a look at the scenery, and then go to Lao Qiao's place?"

"I know why I called you here, right?" Wang Bei whispered to her boyfriend, "How can this person stand it?"

Wang Nan nodded repeatedly, hugged Wang Bei's shoulder and sighed: "It's really hard for you..."

Next they went around Xitai City, but to be honest, he didn't like the atmosphere of this city. The pace was so fast that everyone was hunching forward, either looking down at their phones or making phone calls, and most of them were walking alone.

Even if Bai Renzong, as a bystander, finds it difficult to breathe, it is no wonder that everyone calls this place the Demon City.

"I'm actually quite glad that I live in a second-tier city." Bai Renzong whispered, "Although second-tier cities also have pressure, they are not that strong. After all, everyone around me is just lying flat, so the pressure is not ordinary."

"Who said no?" Han Jiayi said with his arm, "Our income is very high in Beichang City, but if you put it here, you can only say that you are doing well. In this city, you don't dare to say that you have money for tens of millions a year."

"So, why do everyone want to run here?" Bai Renzong said in confusion.

"Maybe it's because of ambition?" Han Jiayi replied, then leaned on Bai Renzong's shoulder, "Old Bai, let's not have such a big ambition, okay? How big we do in this industry, it doesn't matter how much we earn, it doesn't matter how much we earn, at worst I'll support you. You can also come to my restaurant to help me study new dishes..."

"Don't worry." Bai Renzong gently touched her head, "Didn't you see that I didn't even make the ranking of the anchors in the Cat House? I'll leave my destiny to do my best. I'll take whatever step I can to do, and I won't force it."

"Yes!" Han Jiayi smiled happily and nodded.

After a walk around, it was almost noon, and Bai Renzong also brought everyone to Lao Qiao's side.

Lao Qiao is the UP host of D Station. His real name is Qiao Xingyu. He is 66 years old this year. Although his fans are only more than 700,000, he has several houses in Xitai City, and his children are all high-income careers. Being a UP host is purely for entertainment after retirement.

Back then, Qiao Xingyu was also a chef at the state banquet, and basically every chef was responsible for the same dish at the state banquet, and Qiao Xingyu was responsible for the "West Lake Chrysanthemum Fish".

Bai Renzong is very much looking forward to this journey. After all, those who can hold state banquets are definitely not ordinary people. Bai Renzong does not have that profound understanding of Chinese food, and he just happened to be able to ask others for some professional knowledge today.

Qiao Xingyu was also enthusiastic and called them directly to his home to entertain him.

Bai Renzong prepared some specialties from Beichang City in advance, and then knocked on Qiao Xingyu's door.

"Oh, welcome." Old Qiao saw Bai Renzong smiling and immediately came up and grabbed his arm, "You young man, ah? You have such a sensitive taste, why don't you want to be a chef? Well? It's too wasteful, right? Should you consider being my disciple of Old Qiao, learn this "West Lake Chrysanthemum Fish" and inherit my mantle?"

"That," Bai Renzong was stunned by the enthusiasm of the other party, and then immediately pulled Han Jiayi in front of him: "My girlfriend and I are responsible for the performance and the other are responsible for doing it. You can teach her, what do you think? She is also a very powerful chef."

"Hello." Han Jiayi bowed obediently and greeted her.

"Well, the girl doll is really capable. I have watched it in your video." Qiao Xingyu nodded with satisfaction, and then noticed the others: "Hi, the little doll comes, what other gifts will be brought? It's really not like."

"Where is it? I won't look good without bringing gifts." Wang Bei said with a smile.

The group came to the house, and Qiao Xingyu immediately started preparing.

The live demonstration started with killing fish, and the carp were still alive.

While handling each process, Qiao Xingyu explained to Han Jiayi who was watching.

"There are two key points for West Lake chrysanthemum fish. The first key is carving. The fish must be carved just right. This step is very important. First, it looks good, and it looks like the chrysanthemum blooms when it is fried; second, each piece tastes even when it is eaten; third, it is not easy to cut off when it is cut shallow, but it breaks before it is fried. Remember this..."

Han Jiayi was lying on her head, while Bai Renzong looked at the teacher skillfully and quickly cutting the fish into pieces, and he couldn't help but feel a little admiration in his heart.

Can do this...

There is nothing but skillful.

"The second key is the sauce. This sauce emphasizes the integration of oil and sauce. If you can see the obvious layering of the oil, it will definitely not work." Lao Qiao continued while explaining, and soon a plate of West Lake chrysanthemum fish was released.

The fish was fried into four chrysanthemums and placed on the plate. The side of the plate was decorated with thinly sliced ​​cucumbers. The thick sauce was as Lao Qiao said, integrated and there was no layering at all.

"Come on, this little gourmet." Qiao Xingyu raised his hand and smiled, "Try this dish at the state banquet."

Although I had eaten boiled cabbage before, it was just the "appearance" of the dish. The West Lake chrysanthemum fish dish in front of me was truly a treat that had ever entertained foreign leaders.

"Then I'll give you some comments, the state banquet level is level." Bai Renzong grabbed the chopsticks and tasted it.
