【136】Salary

Xue Gongwang looked at Ye Qingxuan in surprise again and said, "It seems that your kid's luck is not bad. If a person in this world wants to achieve great things, in addition to talent and diligence, luck is also very important. I didn't expect that you kid even had a few luck, which is not easy..."

Ye Qingxuan said nothing.

The fishing rod trembled slightly, and Xue Gongwang's old face suddenly became happy and said with a smile: "It seems that my little brother's good luck has also been brought to me. Today I can actually catch 'silver scales' from this cold pond. It seems that I am convinced today..."

As soon as I picked up the fishing rod, I scratched it. A silver fish that was one foot long looked a bit like a silver dragon fish, but it had a crucian carp head, which was slippery and fluttering... It was so unpleasant!

When Xue Gongwang saw it, he was overjoyed and laughed: "Wowhaha... it's the 'Silver Scale King'. This guy seems to have been more than 30 years old. Today he deserves to make food for us. Quickly... collect it, collect it..." Xue Gongwang reveals his arms, rolls up his sleeves, and handed the lively silver scale fish over. Ye Qingxuan had already prepared the fish basket beside him and put it in. The silver scale tail swung and slapped on the back of Ye Qingxuan's hand. It was red. He didn't stop after entering the fish basket, and tossed it. It seemed that the fish basket would fall apart at any time. Ye Qingxuan sucked it and thought that the fish was not big, but it had a lot of strength.

Xue Gongwang narrowed his eyes slightly and laughed, "How is this fish, right? It's so powerful, the meat is extremely elastic, and the silver scale fish is fresh and sweet. If it's steamed, it's really the best in the world..."

Ye Qingxuan knew it naturally. After all, he had tasted this dish last night at the "Yahuju" night banquet, but eating such delicious fish seems to be a waste. Ye Qingxuan, who has always loved to talk, couldn't help but shake his head regretfully.

Unexpectedly, Xue Gongwang, who was excited on the side, looked moved and asked lightly: "What? But what's wrong?"

"Oh-not that. I just thought of steaming this delicious dish, but it was a bit wasteful..."

"Steaming waste? Child, it's not that old man, I, is relying on my seniority. There are two things in this world that are the most confident. One is my hand and the other is my tongue... Old man, I have tasted the delicious food in the world and think that this "steamed silver fish" is a rare and excellent product, and it is one of the "eight treasures of delicacies". The old man has eaten delicious food in his life. Except for the "demon-explosive ape king" that year and asked the famous chef to make a "Ten-scented Rolling Oil Monkey Brain", there is no delicious food in the world that can surpass this "steamed silver scale". This fish grew in extremely cold water. The meat is tender and juicy and delicious. If you don't steam it, will it be braised?"

“Neither steamed nor braised…”

"Is it a stew? It's so irritating. Will you eat fish?"

Looking at Xue Gongwang turning from a kind old man into an old bastard, Ye Qingxuan waved his hands helplessly and said, "Okay, okay, I said, I said... Uh, there is a rare fish with such a delicious original flavor in the world. No matter how you cook it, it will lose its original flavor, so any cooking method is not enough to taste the most delicious original flavor, so my suggestion is to eat raw..."

"Raw food? Raw sashimi with fish and meat...eat the original flavor and taste the sweetness...good, good, good, makes sense...but what are the methods or reputations?"

"Of course, Xiaoke happens to make this dish. If Mr. Xue likes it, I will make it for you to try..."

"Okay, do it quickly..."

Xue Gongwang has always disliked others to flatter, but because he was greedy, he did not dare to favor others. Ye Qingxuan had a rare opportunity to flatter, so he naturally did his best to prepare delicious food for him.

What Ye Qingxuan said is actually very simple, it is the familiar "sashimi" that everyone knows, which is an ancient delicacy originated from the coastal areas of China. It was already a delicacy on the dining table as early as the Zhou Dynasty, and it was called "fish sashimi" in ancient times.

What Ye Qingxuan could not imagine was that this world similar to ancient China also had some food preparation methods from ancient China. Not to mention, mustard sauce and soy sauce were ready-made. These two seasonings were found in the Tang Dynasty and even earlier, and they were also something that had existed here for a long time. Not only that, this "Ningbi Villa" was prepared specifically for Mr. Xue's food feast. Ye Qingxuan actually found the legendary fish sashimi sauce "Baheya" from the imperial chef brought by Mr. Xue. Compared with mustard sauce, this thing is better than a thousand years, and is a different and excellent enjoyment.

"Baheya" is made of eight ingredients: garlic, ginger, orange, white plum, cooked millet yellow, japonica rice, salt and sauce. It has a special method and a unique taste. Dipping it with fish sashimi has always been the favorite of literati and scholars.

In a moment, a servant prepared according to Ye Qingxuan's instructions, one old and one young, and the two were talking and laughing by the pond, and tasted this unique "fish sashimi Banquet".

The snow-white fish meat was cut into small slices as thin as cicada wings and spread onto the ice powder. The cold air formed a mist in the air and slowly flowed around the sashimi. A small table in front of each person, a plate of green mustard sauce, a plate of golden eight and ginger, a plate of crimson purple shrimp paste, a plate of crispy cucumber, shredded radish and ginger slices, each with a plate, and a few plates of side dishes, each with a pot of nine wine... One dish and one plate, each of which was filled with the dishes. The dishes were simple, but the colors were bright and the shape was beautiful.

Xue Gong looked at his eyes and sat in front of him. He looked carefully and couldn't help but exclaim: "I didn't expect that this fish sashimi was so pleasing to the eye. I couldn't bear to put down the chopsticks..."

Ye Qingxuan laughed and said, "No matter how beautiful the dishes are, they are for eating. Mr. Xue, please, the weather is hot. If the ice powder is paddling, the fish will be broken..."

After saying that, Ye Qingxuan quickly picked up a piece of sashimi with chopsticks and placed it in an empty plate, then picked up an appropriate amount of mustard sauce and placed it on the fish fillet, and gently handed it to Xue Gongwang, saying, "Please use it with Mr. Xue. This sashimi is dipped in a little soy sauce, and the taste is extremely unique..."

Although Xue Gongwang likes delicious food, he has never liked raw food. Today, it is rare for someone to insist on it. So I was very careful when I first dipped the fish meat raw sashimi. Ye Qingxuan had already dipped the fish meat in a little mustard sauce. Xue Gongwang picked up the fish meat, dipped it in some soy sauce, folded the fish fillets, covered the mustard sauce, picked it up and put it into his mouth.

The fish in the mouth first brings a hint of cold ice, and the heat in the mouth immediately dissipates. The fish itself is fresh and sweet and melts in the mouth. Then the cold ice in the mouth is a delicious flavor melts in the mouth. Chew gently. The sweetness of the fish itself, the umami flavor of the soy sauce, the spicy and pungent flavor of mustard sauce, and three primitive and pure flavors burst out at the same time.

Xue Gongwang moaned almost comfortably.

As I kept chewing, the fish meat became worse and worse, and the more I chewed it, the more I chewed it, the more I felt salivation, and the fish sashimi also turned into a compound flavor. The aroma, sweet, sand, salty and spicy mixed together, which was naturally very wonderful.

After eating a piece of fish sashimi, Ye Qingxuan put the shredded radish in advance into a small plate and handed it over. The crispy radish ribs with the original spicy and sweet taste increased the fresh fragrance in the mouth to a higher level. Then there was a plate of fish, but it was dipped in "Baheya". The "Baheya" that combines the deliciousness and sweetness of the fish meat, forming another unique sweet and sweet flavor...

Xue Gongwang ate a small piece of ginger, took a glass of water and wine, closed his eyes and was intoxicated, muttering to himself, not knowing what to say, but his face looked extremely happy...

Afterwards, I dipped fish sashimi with fresh shrimp paste and ate another dish...

The two of them kept eating and not much time passed, and a "silver scale fish" weighing more than two pounds was removed by the two of them, and they gathered other foods and drinks. After they had enough wine and meals, they lay lazily on the grass. The free servants next to them packed the utensils, and there were only two old and young people left by the pond.

Xue Gongwang burped and said with satisfaction: "Boy, boy, the old man has to admire you... This is really a delicious food in the world... It's rare, rare... I wonder if this dish is of great significance?"

"It's called 'Golden and Jade Saue'..."

"Good name, fish is like jade, dipping sauce is like gold... Hey, this name is definitely worthy of this excellent delicacy..."

Ye Qingxuan smiled inwardly and said, of course, this is the name personally named by Emperor Yang of Sui, the extravagant and extremely desireless emperor. If the tyrant emperor is not good enough to be an emperor, his taste is first-class, such as wine, food, and beauty. If Yang Guang was born in modern times, he should be a very charming second-generation ancestor.

Xue Gongwang lay on the grass, poured a cup of tea brewed by his servant on his chest, glanced at Ye Qingxuan, and the more he looked, the more he felt the boy liked the eyes, and couldn't help but laugh: "This delicacy is definitely one of the three best delicacies I have ever eaten. You kid make a great contribution. I owe you a big favor... Tell me, what's the matter, can I repay you this favor?"

Ye Qingxuan was washing his hands by the pool again. When he heard this, he almost fell into the cold pool. His body suddenly shook and his expression became dazed. He didn't expect that he was greedy and learned the "chef" in the "Qimen Miscellaneous Arts". He knew that the "golden and jade sashimi" method could still have such a result. It was really a big pie that fell from the sky. This generation of peerless masters, Xue Gongwang, "Tianjue Hand", one of the thirty-six "Tianjue". His favor is not ordinary...

Happiness came too quickly, and Ye Qingxuan was a little panicked for a moment. But then he thought that Huang Rong could win Hong Qigong's [Eighteen Palms of Dragon Subduing] for Guo Jing by relying on her own cooking skills, so why could not have such good luck?

He was arrogant and was one of the shameless skills that Ye Qingxuan had mastered. Since Xue Gongwang had spoken, it would be too stupid to not get some benefits. Ye Qingxuan gritted his teeth and bullied Xue Gongwang in front of him in three steps and licked his face and said with a smile: "Since you have always spoken, if I refuse, it would be too unfair to give you any face... It would be too vulgar to ask for anything. Everyone is a martial arts fellow. Do you think this is good? You always pass on the set of the top-grade red-grade [Tianjue Hand] to me..."
