2612 Chapter 156
Feeling the pressure, Zhan Changfa held his head high and straightened his back. It was as if by doing so, he could show Yuan Zhou how serious and serious he was as the chairman of the min cuisine Association.
Time passed bit by bit, and four people came out of the door one after another. Zhan Changfa and the others were a little dumbfounded.
“1,2,3,4,5, a flock of ducks passed by …” He coughed awkwardly. However, Zhan Changfa and the others confirmed it again and again and realized that there was indeed No 5, only 4. This time, even su Ruoyan, who had invited them in, felt the awkwardness of the situation.
Although he wasn’t embarrassed, and it didn’t matter how embarrassed others were, little Wang was very embarrassed. As the fifth person on the list, this was really embarrassing. Even when he tiptoed, he didn’t see anyone come out of the store.
“Lil ‘Wang, the speed should be very fast. We’ll go in first. You can go in when someone else comes out. Don’t worry, I’ll leave a portion of the Buddha Jumps Over the Wall soup for you. Don’t worry about that.” Zhan Changfa said seriously.
Little Wang was speechless.
He was not really at ease, but he really couldn’t go in together with Yuan Zhou. There were rules in Yuan Zhou’s restaurant and he didn’t want to break the rules. He had neither the idea nor the courage to do so.
Thus, under little Wang’s reluctant gaze, Zhan Changfa strode into the store with the others. Their seats were at the back of the bar counter. It was a line of four seats, which was still acceptable.
At the very least, Xiaowang might be able to sit with them later.
After they sat down, they didn’t order anything. Instead, it was Zhan Changfa who asked,””May I ask if the ‘Buddha Jumps Over the Wall’ that we ordered can be served now?”
After su Ruoyan heard this, she immediately took out her phone and began to check the details of the reservation. After confirming that there were no mistakes, she said,””Please wait for a moment, the food will be served immediately. What else would you like to order?”
“Yes, and a plate of stir-fried double crispness, light steamed conch slices, stir-fried scallop, satay chicken …”
It was as if they were waiting for su Ruoyan to ask what they wanted to order. The moment she opened her mouth, the few of them began to list the dishes they had long wanted to order as if they had agreed on it beforehand without any pause.
After ordering, Wu kun, who was the closest to Xiaowang, said,””It’s a pity that little Wang didn’t come in. The stir-fried satay beef I ordered is his favorite. I don’t know if he can make it in time. “
After saying that, he even sighed as if he was very worried. Of course, if he kept his sparkling eyes on the kitchen, it would be more believable.
The others nodded in agreement as if they were standing in the same line. Of course, Xiaowang, who was staring at the door and waiting for the next customer to come out, didn’t know this. He was now burning incense to all kinds of gods and Buddhas in his heart, hoping that they could come into the shop early to eat his Buddha Jumps Over the Wall.
While Xiaowang was waiting anxiously, the Buddha Jumps Over the Wall soup that he had been thinking about was already on the table.
The three crock jars could also be called wine jars because the authentic ‘Buddha Jumps Over the Wall’ was made with Shaoxing wine.
The wine jar in front of him could hold about half a kilogram of wine. It was very ordinary, the kind of dark brown that was commonly seen. The surface was slightly uneven, not like a pattern, but it looked a little ancient.
It was completely different from the jars that Qu Yun usually chose carefully and had beautiful patterns on them. It was as if they were wine jars that he had randomly found.
Qu Yun focused his attention, and after a careful look, he did not discover anything special, so he temporarily suppressed the anxiety in his heart.
The three jars were placed in front of everyone. They were very conspicuous and attracted many people’s attention. However, the most people did was ask what the dish was. They wanted to order more, but that was all. They were all civilized diners, so naturally, they would not make any unnecessary movements.
Zhan Changfa and the others sniffed a few times, and they realized that they couldn’t smell any fragrance at all.
The Buddha Jumps Over the Wall had a remarkable feature. When it was being simmered, not much fragrance would come out. However, when the opening of the jar was lifted a little, the fragrance would spread to the surroundings. Otherwise, there wouldn’t be the & quot ‘Such a popular poem was passed down and became the origin of the name’ Buddha Jumps Over the Wall ‘.
Previously, the name ‘Buddha Jumps Over the Wall’ had been called ‘full of incense’ or ‘fushou Quan’. It was given based on the ingredients used in the dish. It was a fitting name, but it was not as vivid as ‘Buddha Jumps Over the Wall’. It was as if one could smell the fragrance when the name was mentioned.
“As expected of head chef Yuan. Even I can’t guarantee that not a single trace of fragrance will leak out. I wonder how he managed to seal his mouth.” Qu Yun was so curious that he wanted to go into the jar to take a look.
The ‘Buddha Jumps Over the Wall’ that he had made was very exquisite and close to the description in ancient books. One could only smell a faint and strong fragrance when one sniffed it up close. However, he had already tried it up close just now. Other than the faint fragrance of lotus leaves, there was really no fragrance at all.
Not to mention Qu Yun, even Zhan Changfa and the others were very excited when they saw the ordinary-looking wine jar in front of them. They didn’t know how delicious the food inside was, and just thinking about it made their mouths water.
“Would you like to open the altar now, or do you want to do it yourself?” Su Ruoyan said.
Of course, Yuan Zhou’s original words were to directly take the big soup bowl to the customers and let them pour the soup out by themselves. After all, master chef Restaurant was a place where one could make their own food and clothing.
Su Ruoyan felt that she could do it on her behalf, so she mentioned it. As she spoke, she placed a big bowl of soup that was about eight inches in size beside the three jars. This was to pour out the ‘Buddha Jumps Over the Wall’.
The mouth of the wine jar was relatively small, so it was impossible to eat directly in the wine jar. It was inconvenient and affected one’s performance.
It was only when the bowl was put down that Zhan Changfa and the others came back to their senses from their reverie. They said directly,””There’s no need to trouble yourself, we can drive by ourselves. “
After sending su Ruoyan away, Zhan Changfa, Wu kun, and Xiang Yang looked at each other and quickly moved the jar closer to them. It was obvious what they wanted to do.
“Shouldn’t you give me a jar to open? otherwise, do you plan to use violence?” Qu Yun said.
He wanted to snatch it, but he was afraid that something might happen to the jar. Besides, little Wang hadn’t come in yet, so he couldn’t do it directly. He had no chance of winning.
As the first person to achieve the ‘Buddha Jumps Over the Wall’ feat, Qu Yun felt that he had the ability to open a jar personally. Therefore, he reminded him.
Zhan Changfa and the other two struggled for a while. In the end, it was Zhan Changfa who gritted his teeth and pushed the jar in front of him to Qu Yun.
Qu Yun didn’t take advantage of the situation. He pulled the jar and observed it carefully. Then, he found that the line that looked like the meridian of the Lotus leaf was not right. He pulled the line and pulled it up. He pulled it a little bit before he managed to pull out the whole knot.
Qu Yun turned his wrist and gently swayed it from side to side. The Lotus leaf, which had been tightly sealed, finally revealed its true appearance. It was a layer of lotus leaves, and it was a layer of green leaves.
“This is double-layered?” Qu Yun raised his eyebrows.
