urban farmer

Chapter 24

The little old man named Anderson is the editor-in-chief of "Gourmet Global" and a senior inspector of "Michelin Gourmet".Anderson is an old gourmet, and he will stay in China for about a week this time. Apart from work, he also wants to experience the food of China.

"Let's go." After Fu Ran finished speaking, Anderson just nodded, and then walked outside the airport.Behind him were two old beautiful assistants, who were pushing large and small bags of luggage in their hands.

Fu Ran moved the button on his wrist and followed behind.

It took a lot of effort for Fu's Restaurant to get on the line of Anderson. It is rumored that Anderson is stubborn and indifferent, and he does things vigorously, and he is a difficult owner to get along with.

Just now when they met, Fu Ran felt Anderson's strength.

Fu Ran put the luggage on the back seat and drove towards the outer ring.Fu Ran booked an international five-star hotel named Hillai. The Fujia Restaurant is next to Hillai, covering an area of ​​about [-] square meters. It is the largest storefront of the Fujia Restaurant.

"Mr. Anderson, the specialty dishes of our Fu's Restaurant include chopped pepper fish head, fried guinea fowl, canary bird..." After the group settled in the hotel, they got out of the car and walked towards Fu's Restaurant.

While leading the way, Fu Ran enthusiastically introduced, and Anderson still had a calm expression.

Fu's restaurant is decorated in a classical style, imitating pavilions and pavilions. Each dining table is separated by bead curtains, which are faintly visible and full of Chinese style.

"Mr. Anderson, our fruits, vegetables, and poultry are all freshly picked, killed and cooked. The characteristic of Fu's restaurant is freshness." Fu Ran found a special private room, and then led Anderson and others to the back kitchen.

Anderson is very concerned about the sanitation of the back kitchen. During this period, Fu's restaurant has been cleaned up and down.

"Yeah." Anderson nodded slightly while looking at it.The back kitchen of Fu's Restaurant is radiant and clean.

"What is this?" Anderson was about to go back to the private room, and suddenly pointed to a place in the hall, very curious.He is an expert in Huaxia. Although his Chinese is a bit awkward, it is still clear.Do as the Romans do, and Anderson is also willing to communicate in Chinese.

"That's the fish pond of our restaurant. If customers have the fish they like, they can catch it and slaughter it now." Fu Ran followed Anderson's gaze, and it was a small fish pond five meters square. The side of the fish pond was covered with pebbles. It is very fresh and Zen.

These fish are some high-quality fish, and the price is naturally not cheap.

Anderson walked over, and there were about twenty fish in the whole pond, including crucian carp, silver carp, herring, black carp...

"What kind of species is this?" Anderson looked around, pointing to a corner of the fish pond.

There was a plump red fish about thirty centimeters in length.The entire body of the fish is red with no trace of variegation. It occupies a corner alone, and the other fish are one meter away from it.This red fish is like the king in the fish pond.

"This should be a carp." Fu Ran looked at it and said suddenly.

This fish is exactly the one that Su Yi brought to Song Xiao. Now that Song Xiao and his bride are still traveling around the country, this fish is stored in the restaurant first.

The carp brought by Su Yi is extremely vigorous, and is often selected by customers, but it is not for sale, and restaurants will generally decline it.

"Isn't your restaurant's specialty dish fish head with chopped peppers? That's it." Anderson didn't know the twists and turns inside. After looking at the red fish, he nodded and said.

He fell in love with the fish right away.

Fu Ran was taken aback, this fish was brought to Song Xiao by Su Yi, how would he explain it?

"What's the matter?" Seeing Fu Ran's strange expression, Anderson asked aloud.

"It's okay, I can do it. There are other dishes in the restaurant, why don't you have a serving of them all..." Fu Ran shook his head quickly, he couldn't offend Anderson because of a fish.

Fu Ran gave instructions to the side, and two waiters stepped forward, picked up the red fish, and walked backstage.

Anderson walked around the restaurant, then went back to the private room.

…………

The chefs in Fu's Restaurant are all well-known, and Anderson is an important customer.Within half an hour, all the dishes Anderson ordered were on the table.There are a total of eight dishes before and after, all of which are the signatures of Fu's restaurant.

Anderson raised his chopsticks, picked several in order, some satisfied him, and some frowned.Anderson has tasted all over the world's delicacies, but the dishes at Fu's Restaurant can only be regarded as mediocre.It is far from the standard of "Michelin Food".

Looking at Andre's expression, Fu Ran gradually sank inside.Fu's restaurant is probably out of business...

"Chopped pepper fish head." Just as Fu Ran was thinking about countermeasures, the door of the private room opened, and the waiter in antique clothes served the dishes.

At this time, he was holding a large tray in his hand, and on the tray was a small plate of fresh fish soup besides the chopped pepper fish head.The soup is made from red fish bones.

After the dishes were served, the assistant beside him took a spoon and filled a bowl for Andre.

Anderson frowned. He ate a lot just now, and now he is [-]% full.Anderson didn't want to drink any more, but the fish soup was rich and delicious. After struggling for a moment, Anderson picked up the small bowl and took a sip.

The quality is tender and soft, and the mouth is fragrant.After taking a sip, Anderson couldn't stop. He had eaten all over the world, but he had never tasted such delicious fish soup.

"Is this also the signboard of your restaurant?" Anderson finished his drink in one go.Turning to Fu Ran, he said with surprise.

"Yes." Fu Ran nodded suspiciously. This fish soup is not a signature dish, but just an ordinary fresh soup. Unexpectedly, it suits Anderson's appetite.

It seems that foreign taste buds are different from those in China.

"Delicious." After finishing the fish soup, Anderson filled another bowl, then picked up the chopsticks, and picked up a piece of chopped pepper fish head.The fish head is spicy and delicious, and the meat is extremely tender. This taste is completely different from fish soup.

"This dish will be served tomorrow." After eating, Anderson touched his swollen belly and said.At this moment, Anderson had a satisfied expression on his face.

If it weren't for this fish head with chopped peppers, Anderson wouldn't have known that his appetite would be so large.

Fu Ran wrote it down.

"Your restaurant is good." Walking to the door of the restaurant, Anderson said with a rare kindness.I don't know if it's an illusion, but he just feels refreshed, and his mind is much clearer.

"It should be." Fu Ran replied with a smile.

After sending Anderson back to the hotel, Fu Ran ordered a fish head with chopped peppers for the first time.He was only focused on entertaining Anderson just now, and didn't move his chopsticks at all.

As the owner of Fu's restaurant, Fu Ran's chefs and waiters are naturally very attentive.

Half an hour later, the fish head with chopped peppers was served.Fu Ran took a bite with his chopsticks, the taste was okay, but it wasn't too shocking.In contrast, Fu Ran prefers his own guinea fowl.

At night, Anderson rarely had a good dream.In the dream, he was riding on a red fish, galloping passionately in the sea...

……

Early the next morning, after a simple wash, Anderson walked towards Fu's restaurant with great interest. He was eager to eat fish now.

"Remember to serve fish soup." After sitting down, Anderson reminded the waiter beside him.Anderson's back was straight now, a white napkin resting on his lap, as if attending a feast.

The waiter went out in response, and Fu Ran was relieved.It seems that Fujia Restaurant has a lot to do with the selection of Michelin restaurants.

Half an hour later, Fu Ran felt that it was too early to relax——

"Is this fish head with chopped pepper? It doesn't taste like that at all! The soup tastes wrong too." Anderson looked at the soup bowl and small saucer in front of him and said angrily.

What Anderson is most proud of is his tongue. He will never forget the taste he has tasted.At this time, this spicy fish head dish is spicy, but it is far less delicious than yesterday.The taste of the fish soup is not even one-tenth!

Anderson felt cheated.

"This must be a misunderstanding. I asked the chef to make a new one." After being slightly stunned, Fu Ran said hastily.Although he didn't know why Anderson got angry, Fu Ran still wanted to minimize the loss.

Anderson waved his hand irritably, accepting a redo.

Fu Ran followed the waiter back to the back kitchen.Chef Sun has been working in Fu's family for ten years, and his craftsmanship is first-class. Over the years, he has never encountered a problem of returning food after packing.

"Manager Fu, this taste is right." Chef Sun took a sip of the fresh soup and fish head.He's been making this dish since his apprenticeship, and it's as good as ever.

Fu Ran picked up the chopsticks and tasted it too.Nothing changed, this dish is exactly the same as what he ate last night!The taste of the fish was right, and Chef Sun had worked in Fu's family for another ten years, so Fu Ran couldn't blame him randomly.

"Let's do it again."

After putting down the chopsticks, Fu Ran waved his hands weakly.Judging from Anderson's expression, he was indeed very angry and annoyed just now.Anderson's coffee status is too great to be framed at will.

But the fish head with chopped peppers tastes the same as before... which is a bit weird.

Chef Sun made another dish.

"This is really a bad experience. I want the fish from yesterday, not the fake one." The chopped pepper fish head was served again, and Anderson patted his chopsticks down after tasting it, saying extremely dissatisfied.

He didn't know why Fu's Restaurant offered him fake products, but his experience this morning was really bad.

Anderson and his assistant left without looking back, Fu Ran chased after him and apologized, but it was still irreparable.If you want to get Anderson's forgiveness, you can only make yesterday's chopped pepper fish head.

……

"Is there any change in the ingredients and cooking method of the fish head?" Something happened to Fu's restaurant, and Fu's father rushed over from the villa.

After listening to the cause and effect, Father Fu said to the chef beside him.

"It hasn't changed, it's still the same as before."

Chef Sun was very annoyed. He had been making this dish for more than ten years. He was asked by Fu Ran just now, and now he was asked by Father Fu again. Chef Sun felt distrusted.

"Boss, yesterday's fish seems to be different." The atmosphere in the back kitchen fell into a brief silence. After a while, a small helper Nuonuo raised his hand and said.

He is in charge of cleaning the fish in the back kitchen.The whole body of the fish was red yesterday, and it looked festive, and the little helper was very impressed.

"That fish belongs to my classmate, and it has been stored in the restaurant for a while." Hearing this, Fu Furan also remembered something, and said.

Then everyone recalled the whole story again, and the difference was indeed the fish.It's just that Fu Ran didn't move his chopsticks yesterday, and he didn't know how the fish tasted.

"Contact your classmate again and see if we can send one by air. Anderson is very important to Fu's restaurant, you can't mess it up." Father Fu waved his hands when he heard this.Fu Ran is the only son of the Fu family, so he must learn to handle affairs on his own.

"I see." Fu Ran paused, and then said.Now the only clue left is the red fish. Suddenly, Fu Ran thought of Su Yi's rather cold gaze.I don't know if I can get the fish from Su Yi.

...............

"Didn't I hand over the fish to the front desk?" At three o'clock in the afternoon, Su Yi was wandering around with Dan Sheng in his arms. Just as he was about to go down the mountain, he received a rather unexpected call.

Fu Ran's number is stored on Su Yi's mobile phone, but according to the original owner's memory, the two have never had a phone call in these years.After listening to Fu Ran's purpose, Su Yi directly asked a crucial point.

When Su Yi attended Song Xiao's wedding, he clearly asked the front desk to hand over the fish to Song Xiao. Unexpectedly, two months later, the fish came to Fu Ran in a daze.

Not only that, but the fish is now being embezzled by Fu Ran.No matter how you look at it, this behavior is a bit confusing...

"Su Yi, I did not handle this matter properly. I just want to ask, do you still have red fish? I am willing to pay double to buy it." Fu Ran also knew that the matter was not handled properly, and the matter has come to an end , he now just wants to ease the relationship with Anderson.

"No more." Su Yi gave Dan Sheng a smooth ride, and replied directly.

"Su Yi, this fish is really useful to me, can you think of a way. Otherwise, I'll pay ten times the price." Fu Ran didn't expect Su Yi to refuse so quickly, and was a little dumb for a while.

"Sorry, is there really?" Su Yi went down the mountain, not in the mood to chat at all.

Now there is another Fusheng fish in the fish pond, which was ordered by 'a little bird'.Su Yi called Little Bird.Little Bird is currently on a business trip and will not be able to sign for delivery until next week.It was reserved by an online shopper, so Su Yi naturally couldn't give it to him.

The other eight fish are at Qian Yingjie's place, and they are both money and goods.He and Fu Ran are neither related nor related, and there is no need to connect with them.

Su Yi has a gentle temperament, but he is not a bad guy who takes care of things at will.

"Su Yi, how did you get this fish?" Fu Ran could hear the indifference in Su Yi's voice, and after a pause, he continued.

"Nursing, I have some things here, let's do this first." After Su Yi finished speaking, he hung up the phone directly.

Listening to the busy tone on the phone, Fu Ran looked dazed.

Su Yi has been secretly in love with him for three years, and now that his attitude has changed, he is somewhat incapable of accepting it.

Su Yi didn't care what Fu Ran thought, what he said was not an excuse, there was indeed something going on now.

…………

At this time, there were three big Mercedes cars parked at the gate of the farm, and a middle-aged man wearing a gold chain and a mink coat was leaning beside the car.Beside him stood seven or eight young men dressed in black.

The young people have the blue dragon on the left and the white tiger on the right. It is not too cold to wear black short sleeves in winter.

Humanoid puppets, Li Feng and others stood inside the gate, looking out nervously.Only then did Su Yi notice that he missed a call 3 minutes ago, and it was Li Feng who made it.

"You are the farm owner?" Su Yi approached, and saw a young man who looked like a thug raised his chin and said to Su Yi.

Su Yi ignored him.

"Boss Wang?" Su Yi looked at the mink man and said suddenly.It's not that Su Yi has seen Boss Wang's photo, but that the original owner's uncle is hiding behind a big tree and peeping here.

There is a series of causes and consequences, presumably the person in front of him is Yue Ning who Su Pingde often mentions, Boss Wang.

"Boss Xiao Su doesn't give you face. I sent people over to negotiate over and over again. Boss Xiao Su not only ignored me, but also injured my people?" Boss Wang lit a cigar and said to Su Yi.

Boss Wang's name is Wang Luhai. He is mainly engaged in transportation and real estate business, and he is quite influential in Yuening County.Now he wants to make a farmhouse in the surrounding area. After inspecting the terrain of Yuening County, he set his sights on Daqing Farm.

Daqing Farm is located in the south of Yuening County, with beautiful mountains and clear waters and a wide flat area, it is an excellent choice for farmhouse entertainment.Wang Luhai went to Hong Kong to deal with several business deals in the past two months, and he just came back now.

The first thing I did when I came back was to solve the farmhouse problem.

"Boss Wang, I've made it very clear. This farm was never sold before, and it won't be sold in the future." Su Yi said in a calm voice.

Su Yi looked around, thinking, if the humanoid puppets beat all the people in front of them to the ground, wouldn't it be too tough?

Now that the farm is just in the developing stage, Su Yibin doesn't want to make a big deal out of it.But these people are obviously looking for trouble, Su Yi is not afraid of trouble.

"Master." The puppet stepped forward and said as if feeling Su Yi's emotions.

The humanoid puppet's voice was like a bell, and its body was like a mountain. It was extremely impactful, and his words of master also echoed in everyone's ears.

"Pfft, what age is it now, return to the master..." Just as the humanoid puppet finished speaking, a thug laughed exaggeratedly.

The puppet in human form looks too naive, and it looks like a fool at first glance.

It's just that the thug just laughed halfway, and he couldn't laugh anymore.I saw the humanoid puppet slowly turn around, with deep eyes, like a cold poisonous snake.
