Chapter 117
Tomorrow, the Shenzhou men's basketball team will face the Sydney Olympic men's basketball finals, the third opponent of the Group A group match, the French team. Others don't think it is a big deal. It's a fight, why all the fuss.

However, Verus was worried and had no appetite at all. Only he, a time-traveling dog, understood what it meant to win France and what it would be like to lose.

But he doesn't want to transmit the pressure to any player or coach of the Shenzhou Men's Basketball Team. Nervous emotions are contagious, so he tries to avoid going to the Shenzhou Men's Basketball team's residence and competition venues these days.

Practicing under the giant cauldron of the Shenzhou Pavilion became the best way for Verus to vent his emotions. He set up a kebab stall and yelled loudly as if he was in a busy town. Nervous and noisy, so that he can empty his mind and completely forget all the pressure, troubles and burdens.

It may be the two little girls from the gymnastics team of the Shenzhou delegation. After looking around, they quietly said in the queue: "Boss, it's still the old rule, 6 skewers of mutton skewers, 20 yuan, we know, sprinkle more spicy peppers, please hurry up."

Verus knows that most of the Chinese gymnasts come from Nanhu. The people there are not afraid of spicy food, not afraid of spicy food, and all of them are hot girls. The provinces including the Yunshang Plateau in the Chuan Shang Basin are big eaters of spicy food. Gradually, the coastal areas will also start to eat spicy food People eat spicy food, and they don't like spicy food.

The Scoville index is the basic unit of spicy chili. The spiciness of ordinary chili can reach 10000 Scoville, and the spiciness of Chaotian pepper, a specialty of inland mountain cities, is about 30000 Scoville. Nice world record chili, the spiciness can reach hundreds of thousands to several million Scovilles, you must know that the spiciness of tear gas is only 200 million Scovilles.

Verus didn't plan to engage in mass biochemical murder, so the chili powder noodles he chose came from a place rich in apples in the magical northwest of China. Almost all the apples in China claimed to come from there, so they could be sold at a higher price.

Airlifting fresh cumin and chili powder from China is very simple, but it is obviously unrealistic to transport many red willow branches. Fortunately, there are similar willow branches in Australia, but the color is not red but green, and the fragrance is naturally there.

The process of smelting carbon and marinating mutton is cumbersome and time-consuming. Of course, Verus entrusted the help of several sons and grandsons of Old Pete in the Black Gold Ranch. There are also high-quality incense woods similar to Populus euphratica in the desert areas of Australia, which are used to refine More than enough to make good charcoal.

Carefully prepared small rams, only the hind legs and sheep tail oil are taken, slaughtered on the same day, diced in large pieces, marinated with onions and egg whites to prepare the ingredients, the top sheep breeds in Australia carefully selected by Old Pete, not counting In addition, the cost far exceeds the selling price of Verus.

Desert charcoal ignition itself has a fresh aroma similar to nuts, plus a little juice secreted by willow branches. Under the influence of charcoal fire, it dissolves the smell of mutton, and still spreads a touch of wood and willow in the meat and air. The specialty of Upper Australia is ground rock salt from the Basin. The aroma travels thousands of miles through the air and reaches the noses and ears of many gourmets.

Even the barbecue rack in Verus is specially made. In order to achieve the temperature necessary for fast grilling, from charcoal to ignition to heating, the dark and dirty rack hides tens of thousands of dollars worth of food. Gadgets.

Sprinkle with salt for 5 minutes, sprinkle with chili powder noodles for 7 minutes, and sprinkle cumin later. High temperature will cause the cumin to lose its aroma, so it will be out of the oven in a few seconds after sprinkling. One second earlier is not enough and one second later. Xiang, the two mutton kebabs from before were turned over by rubbing the bottom of each other. The fan in Verus's hand was purely pretending to be funny, and the soot would be blown onto the lamb when it was really fanned.

Another row of lamb kebabs in Verus came out of the oven, and the people waiting in line swallowed their saliva and showed expressions of anxious anticipation, but within the scope of the Olympic Village, everyone wanted to save some face for their country, so There are basically no cases of queue jumping and trouble.

There are tens of thousands of athletes, officials, staff and volunteers in the entire Olympic Village, not including tourists and spectators who have sold millions of tickets. On the other hand, tourists can also come in from the other side of the road, but they need to check their identity if they go to the Olympic Village.

Verus happily distributed batches after batches, and the two little girls from the Shenzhou gymnastics team who got the mutton skewers looked around again for a while, and then ate it desperately while blowing on the meat, as if someone was urging them .

An annoying and familiar white face suddenly appeared in front of Verus and said, "Give me ten skewers, um, this is called lamb skewers?"

Verus took a closer look, isn't this the Ligado who fell into the west of the lake? Tomorrow's opponent in the Shenzhou men's basketball team, I didn't expect to meet here.

Verus put down the cattail fan coldly, covered the sliding door of the refrigerator, rolled his eyes and said, "It's sold out, please come early tomorrow."

Rigado, who was wearing a team uniform, smelled the smell at first, but didn't see the figure clearly. Now he also found that the person opposite him was an acquaintance, the white American who made him make a fool of himself in China, and his free throws were so accurate that people were desperate.

Rigado's face changed, and he raised his voice and said, "Nonsense, I clearly saw that you still have some in the freezer, and everyone is here to comment. Do you do business like this?"

Verus thought to himself that you really know how to pretend, you are so fluent in English, but you pretended to be like that in the west of the lake.

Verus raised his hands and fists, and said loudly: "Brothers and sisters, I am in a bad mood. I will temporarily close my business and take a rest. No one has any objections."

Most of the people who came to line up were old friends of the Shenzhou delegation. They or they came to eat Verus’ mutton skewers every day. The relationship was solid, and sharp-eyed people could see that these two people were not getting along. Dao, don't get in the way, don't get in the way, they all dispersed on their own.

Rigado's expression became even uglier, and he was about to speak, when suddenly two Chinese men's basketball players stood beside Verus and shouted in English: "I won't sell it to you, what's the matter?"

Ricardo looked at the Shenzhou men's basketball uniform on the opponent's body, groaned and pointed and said, "Okay, good, very good, you wait, see you on the field tomorrow, huh."

Looking at the figure of the other party leaving, Verus was stunned for a while, and then said: "Two brothers, I will see you two tomorrow, but I have to take this breath for me. I have been holding it back for almost 20 years."
