Start being a Shennong today

In the Tao family, everyone sat on the chairs in unison, too full to care about their manners.

Today Tao Ran said that Li Tingzhou would bring his master to come here for a few days. Tao's parents welcomed them very much, and they had already prepared a sumptuous lunch to welcome the guests.But Tao Shengwen and Tian Yuxia were a little angry when they didn't expect to wait and see no one.

"Mom and Dad, they'll be here in a while." Tao Ran received the message from Li Tingzhou and went into the room to inform his parents.

Tian Yuxia was a little unhappy, but seeing the unstoppable smile on Tao Ran's face, her curiosity made her ask, "What happened, why are you so happy?"

"Dad, Mom, do you know why Li Tingzhou is late?" Tao Ran couldn't help but said, "His master, that old man Yang, is reluctant to leave the vegetable field in our village."

Tao Shengwen and Tian Yuxia didn't believe it at first, until they saw the news from Li Tingzhou.Because they like Taoyuan vegetables so much and are reluctant to leave the vegetable field, the Tao family can't laugh or cry.

"This old man is a chef. It's no wonder what happens when you think about it." However, considering his identity as a chef, it seems somewhat understandable. Anyway, it's not surprising that these powerful people have any hobbies.In short, as soon as this funny reason came out, most of the unhappiness caused by their absence for too long disappeared.

When Li Tingzhou and his master Yang Jinjiang finally came over, Mr. Yang Jinjiang's sincere apology made the last bit of unhappiness disappear from their hearts.

At that time, Li Tingzhou finally persuaded Yang Jinjiang who wanted to take root in the vegetable field. Mr. Yang was also a little embarrassed, and followed his apprentice to Tao's house. Seeing the three of them waiting for him, the apology in his heart rose to the peak .

"Oh, I'm really sorry for keeping you waiting for so long. My old man has this problem. When he sees good ingredients, he can't walk." Mr. Yang Jinjiang is not a person who can't hold back his face. If he is wrong, he should apologize.

After expressing their apologies, Tao's parents accepted, and Tian Yuxia proposed to cook, and let the guests sit in the room for a while and it would be ready immediately.

Now that the weather is cold, the dishes will get cold soon after they are cooked too early, so except for the stewed soup, all other ingredients are ready, and the dishes are cooked when the guests come.

Mr. Yang, who was already full of apology, felt itchy for a while when he saw the clean Taoyuan vegetables in the kitchen.

"Well, I don't think this dish has been fried yet, why don't I cook today, which can be regarded as an expression of my apology." Mr. Yang directly proposed that today's lunch should be cooked by him, so it should be regarded as an apology.

The Tao family's first reaction was not to refuse, but to feel that this old man deserved to be a mentor and student with Li Tingzhou.

Then it was realized that it was not good for a guest who came to the door for the first time to be an old man to cook. The parents of the Tao family quickly refused: "Old man, we accept your apology, and we don't need to cook. You are today My guest, how can I ask you to cook."

"Uncle, just let my master cook. His hands itch when he sees good ingredients. He probably wants to cook today. And my cooking skills are not half as good as my master's. You guys are going to cook today." Try my master's craftsmanship." Li Tingzhou persuaded the master, but he didn't notice that his rare warm tone got the master's surprised eyes.

Li Tingzhou knew in his heart that the old man loved cooking, and if Tian Yuxia was to cook, the old man might still feel sorry for the spoiled ingredients, which would not be beautiful at that time.It's better to let the old man do the cooking himself, and everyone can taste the old man's craftsmanship, which will be a real treat.

The Tao family was a little hesitant, and in a blink of an eye they saw Mr. Yang walking towards the kitchen, turning his back on customers and preparing to show off his culinary skills.

Needless to say, the vegetables in the kitchen are all produced in Taoyuan, and the quality is guaranteed.It's just that the pork is a bit inferior, and was ignored by Mr. Yang after he took a look at it with disgust.The chicken used to stew the soup was bought from Aunt Chunmei's house, and the chicken family's eggs were approved by the old man.

After looking at all the ingredients, Mr. Yang became familiar with all kinds of kitchen utensils and the locations of various seasonings.Tian Yuxia never likes to use all kinds of seasonings in cooking, not even monosodium glutamate and chicken essence.

But it's nothing and it's not a problem, Mr. Yang looked at the soy sauce in the kitchen and felt that the quality was not good enough for these vegetables.He is going to bring out the original taste of the vegetables directly, without too much seasoning to overwhelm the guests.

The old man was busy in the kitchen, and the others were embarrassed to sit in the living room and waited at the door of the kitchen.At the beginning, they were interested in appreciating the figure of the old man cooking, but when the aroma came out, everyone lost their minds.

As soon as the dishes are fried, the dishes and chopsticks are already ready.The final result was that all the Tao family was overwhelmed.The taste buds of the Tao family were greatly satisfied, and they praised Mr. Yang's craftsmanship.

Mr. Yang has heard many people praise his cooking skills over the years, but he finds the Tao family particularly pleasing to the eye, and feels that their praises are sincere.What satisfied him most was the Taoyuan vegetables, which he always felt were better than those sent to him by Li Tingzhou.

Mr. Yang stayed here for the time being. If he had nothing to do, he went out to play chess with other people in the village under the peach king tree, and taught the villagers some cooking tips casually. Don't live too comfortably.

The Tao family also lived a happy life.On the day Mr. Yang first came, Tian Yuxia was too embarrassed to ask the guests to cook every meal, so she cooked herself that night.As a result, just as Li Tingzhou expected, Mr. Yang had a very uncomfortable meal, feeling that such good ingredients had been delayed.

Later, the old man asked Li Tingzhou to cook, or cook by himself, using the excuse of food expenses, and the Tao family couldn't refuse.

Mr. Yang lived comfortably in the village and fell in love with the beautiful and peaceful atmosphere of Taoyuan Village. He got in touch with the villagers of Taoyuan and learned a lot about their plans.

Over the years, he has traveled far and wide, suffered hardships when he was young, and enjoyed blessings when he was old. He saw a lot of scenery and made some suggestions for the construction of Taoyuan Village.

He also understands that the biggest selling point of Taoyuan Village is the delicious Taoyuan vegetables, but the cooking skills of these villagers are mediocre, so he couldn't help it, so he told them some cooking tips.It is the most basic way of processing ingredients, and there are some dishes that are rarely seen here in the distant mountains. They are not related to the secret recipe, but the villagers of Taoyuan have never understood it.

So after a few days, Li Tingzhou discovered that his master had become the most popular old man in Taoyuan Village.This kind of scene often appears in Taowangxia, with Mr. Yang as the dividing line, one side is discussing various cooking skills, and the other side is discussing chess skills. Both sides are lively and lively, and you have to ask Mr. Yang from time to time.

And in order to thank the old man for his guidance, many people specially took some vegetables that Tao Ran's family didn't grow, and even wild vegetables dug on the mountain, and gave them to old man Yang.In the past few days, everyone has understood that the old man loves to cook, but he also loves to eat.

The old man has been enjoying himself for several days, and he has also done his business.He visits Taoyuan Village every day, and he knows all the ingredients in the village by heart.

A few days later, Mr. Yang called Tao Ran to find the village chief, and then took out a handwritten purchase order.Tao Ranqi looked at it, and found that the top had collected all the best ingredients in Taoyuan Village, and felt that they knew more about it than the people in Taoyuan Village.

Yang Jinjiang said: "Village Chief, I think you know me a little bit these days, so I'll just say it straight. My family members are all cooks, and there are several restaurants in my family. In your village The quality of the vegetables is so good, I want to sign a long-term purchase contract with you, these are the ingredients I fancy."

"I've also wandered around the village a lot in the past few days, and you have expanded a lot of vegetable fields. I calculated that once the vegetables in this batch of vegetable fields grow out, they are completely enough to supply your current sales channels. I I just came to the door directly, and you don't need to look for sales channels." Yang Jinjiang paused, then continued.

What he said is all true. Taoyuan vegetables not only taste good, but also have a high yield.Villagers in Taoyuan have reclaimed a lot of vegetable fields this winter, and they need to find more sales channels.

However, the village head has never bothered about this matter, and based on this taste, he is not afraid that he will not be able to sell it.However, the buyer who came to the door is also a mentor and apprentice with Li Tingzhou, who has a good cooperative relationship with Taoyuan Village. It can be seen from getting along with him in the village these days that he has a good character. The village chief feels that he must find a more suitable partner not easy.

"Hey, there are wild vegetables in here, we haven't sold them yet." Tao Ran sharply saw the name of wild vegetables on the purchase list.

Now the weather is getting warmer, and under the nourishment of Shennong Spring, wild vegetables have broken through the ground one after another.Villagers in Taoyuan often carry small bamboo baskets to dig a basket. When they come back, whether it is stir-fry or cold salad, it is very good.Mr. Yang even dealt with it himself once, and it seems that he was thinking about it at that time.

"Wild vegetables also have their own unique flavor, and there are only some people who like them. In the city, the price of wild vegetables is higher than that of ordinary vegetables, and I don't need to talk about the taste of wild vegetables in your village." Ever since Mr. Yang tasted the wild vegetables in Taoyuan Village After that, he knew that this dish would definitely be popular.

The village chief glanced at the purchase list curiously. He was startled by the price of wild vegetables first, then took a deep breath and exclaimed, "This...the price is too high!"

These wild vegetables are ordinary dandelions, horse weeds, and what they often call bitter bitter vegetables. These are all wild vegetables on the roadside and fields. There are many wild vegetables in the village, and no one has ever thought of selling them for money.Unexpectedly, this Mr. Yang not only wanted to buy, but also paid such a high price. There are almost no vegetables in Taoyuan Village.

Mr. Yang solemnly explained to the village chief: "The quantity I want to purchase is large, and the villagers need to work hard to dig it out. The price should be higher. Let's see if you are satisfied with this price."

There is nothing dissatisfied with this, but the village head did not agree immediately, and told Yang Jinjiang first that he would discuss it with the villagers.But judging by Yang Jinjiang's popularity in the village these days, he knew that there would be no surprises.

Yang Jinjiang nodded, and was about to turn around and go out. Before going out, he said another sentence: "Tao Ran, when the contract between me and your village is finalized, you can go to Nantian Village with me. It’s pretty good, I’m going to buy some, and I can pack some gifts for guests in the future.”

Tao Ran was stunned for a moment before realizing what he meant. He thought the old man was really interesting. This confirmed that their village would sign a contract with him: "Okay, I'll go shopping with you then."

After Tao Ran's answer, Mr. Yang strode out the door without seeming worried.
