Buying all kinds of fresh ingredients is something that every restaurant needs to do every day.
Grocery shopping, which seems to be something ordinary people may do every day, is a big event for the chefs who rushed to the top hotels in the farmers market before dawn.
The freshest and best ingredients in the market are often not available every day, and the supply will not be so abundant.
Some fresh and top-notch goods can be encountered, it is like hitting a big luck.
So the night in the market, the top chefs in the city, all look like detectives incarnate, and they all compete with their eyesight.
When you see those top-notch goods, you have to do it in time without hesitation. If you hesitate, you may become someone else's pocket.
So after Feng Yifan confirmed the vegetables with the vegetable stall owner, he rushed to the Yusheng area in the farmer's market without stopping. Yusheng talks about fresh food, but you can't let others **** good things first.
And only in the city's largest farmer's market where Feng Yifan came, can you buy the freshest and cutting-edge goods.
stepped into the Yusheng area, the buddies and bosses of the first few stalls immediately gathered around to greet him warmly.
Feng Yifan was naturally unmoved, because it was clear that the topography of the first few shops was so good, and most of them had nothing good. Even if they had, they would have been robbed by others a long time ago.
ignored the enthusiastic stall buddies and bosses, walking in silently like a passer-by, looking casually, but scanning precisely.
After walking through a dozen stalls, he has come to the middle of Yusheng District, and the owner of each stall will greet him enthusiastically.
However, Feng Yifan always seems to be watching the flowers passing by, smiling at every enthusiastic person, but his eyes seem to be inadvertent, carefully scanning all the fish inside and outside each stall.
took a few more steps. When Feng Yifan glanced over a small stall, he was suddenly attracted by the fish in a huge iron pot inside the stall. Without thinking about it, he made three steps and made two steps directly into the stall.
But before Feng Yifan could speak, the other two figures stepped into the small stall at the same time.
Dangdang.
The younger of the two came in with Feng Yifan, tapped the iron basin in the stall lightly, and then shouted inside: "Where are people? Not doing business?"
After a while, the small door between the stalls opened, and a sleepy-eyed middle-aged man, wearing shorts and slippers, and messy hair and beard walked out of the door.
Seeing the two people entering the door with Feng Yifan, the middle-aged man quickly woke up and walked forward with a smiling face.
"Oh, Chef Zhang, what do you want to order today? I am a bit good today."
Among the two of them, another older, somewhat elegant middle-aged man nodded in response, and then looked down at the fish in the iron basin.
Rather than waiting for the elegant middle-aged man to speak, the young fellows obviously figured out their meaning, and asked directly: "Boss, how do you sell this pot of fish?"
The boss looked at the fish in the iron basin, and then said with a smile: "Chef Zhang, you are an old customer. If you want, I will give you 60."
The young man was suddenly unhappy when he heard it: "What? 60 a catty? Boss, have you made a mistake? Can catfish be sold at this price?"
The boss thought for a while with a look of embarrassment and said, "Why else, I'll give you 55. Isn't this always okay?"
The elegant middle-aged chef Zhang said at this time: "35, I want it all, kill it and send it."
This price makes the boss very embarrassed: "Chef Zhang, this price is really not good, my fish..."
Before the boss could finish speaking, Feng Yifan, who was standing by, said first: "I want 60 a catty. I don't want to kill it. You can send me alive. You can't die."
Feng Yifan interjected suddenly, causing the other three people in the stall to be taken aback, and six eyes converged on him instantly.
Seeing all three of them stunned there, Feng Yifan smiled and asked, "Why? Don't you sell it?"
The boss quickly responded when he heard this: "Sell, sell, how can you not sell? Are you really sure? 60 a catty? Don't you make a counter-offer?"
Feng Yifan nodded: "Yes, it's only 60 kilograms, but I want to live, you can deliver it to me, but you can't kill it."
When the boss heard this, he slapped his chest and said, "Don't worry, I promise to send it to you."
Seeing Feng Yifan pay out, the middle-aged boss over there has already started weighing.
The young man who has been bargaining with the boss once again said: "Boss, always talk about a first come first, right? We haven't said whether or not, you just sell it to someone else?"
The boss rolled his eyes and said, "You are too expensive. People are willing to pay the price. I sell this small book and sell it to whoever pays."
The young man suddenly became unhappy: "How can your boss be like this? My master has always purchased from your home. If you are like this, then we will consider changing to another home."
These words are obviously very lethal, and the boss's weighing hand has obviously slowed down a lot.
Feng Yifan saw a trace of arrogance on the young man's face, and deliberately raised his eyebrows at himself.
I didn’t expect that when I came to the farmers’ market to buy a few fish, I would meet such an interesting person.
Feng Yifan asked with a smile: "Hehehe, if you embarrass the boss like this, you are not afraid that the boss will advertise that you will use threats to buy a few fish in your restaurant. I am afraid that your restaurant's reputation will be bad then?
Saying that, Chef Zhang, who allowed his young apprentices to bargain, didn’t have that kind of elegance.
"Okay, Liu Quan, we have an old relationship with Boss Fang, can we just change it? You shut up, since these fish are willing to pay high prices, they can't prevent Boss Fang from making money."
When the young apprentice heard this, he finally stopped saying much, but his expression was obviously unconvinced.
Chef Zhang apologized to Feng Yifan and smiled, and then said to the stall owner: "Lao Fang, I don't want these fish today. You can deliver the others according to the order."
The boss of Fang also hurriedly dried the water on his hands carefully, and then carefully took the order from the chef Zhang.
"Okay, OK, Chef Zhang, don't worry, you can guarantee that they are the best. I will arrange it for you immediately and send it to Fujing Building."
Hearing the name "Fujinglou", Feng Yifan couldn't help but look more at Chef Zhang and his young apprentice.
caught Feng Yifan’s gaze, the young apprentice immediately regained his arrogance, raised his chin and said, “We have no shortage of these catfish in Fujing Building. Since you have money, you can buy it.”
The young man was arrogant in his words, and also revealed that Feng Yifan didn't know the goods at all, but he was rich.
heard the meaning, when the master and apprentice turned to leave, Feng Yifan stretched out his hand to stop the master and apprentice.
The young apprentice asked bluntly: "What are you doing? Are you not convinced? Do you still want to do it in the street?"
Feng Yifan smiled and said, "No, no, I've been admiring Fujinglou for a long time, but I haven't had a chance to taste it. I stopped the two because I wanted to show them something."
While speaking, under the gaze of the master and apprentice, Feng Yifan walked to the big iron basin and stretched out his hand to pull out the head of a fish.
"One, two, three, four..."
In front of the master and apprentice, Feng Yifan carefully counted the four beards under the fish’s mouth.
The young apprentice looked dumbfounded after reading it, until Feng Yifan put the fish back in the basin, and then asked strangely: "This is over? You let us watch you count the fish's whiskers?"
But without Feng Yifan speaking, Head Chef Zhang bowed his hand to Feng Yifan: "Zhang Fenglin has been taught today."
Then called the young apprentice, turned around and left this humble small stall together.
Watching the two masters and disciples go away, Feng Yifan's mouth raised slightly and muttered: "Fujinglou Zhang Fenglin? Well, he is also a master, but it is a bit arrogant."
The fish seller Fang had already weighed the fish, and then stepped forward and asked, "Where are you going to deliver this fish?"
Feng Yifan replied, "Oh, it's for Su Ji, but you have to wait for me. I have to go shopping for other things. You can send them together when you buy them all."
The boss nodded and said: "Okay, then you go, I will keep these fish for you."
Waiting for Feng Yifan to pay and leave, Boss Fang, while distributing goods to Fujing Building, suddenly woke up: "Su Ji? Isn't the old Su head having a stroke? Who is this young man?"
The probe went out to search, Feng Yifan's figure had disappeared in the bustling street outside.
...
Liu Quan followed the master for a while, and finally couldn’t help but ask: "Master? Let me show you that number of people, what does it mean?"
Zhang Fenglin sighed: "Oh, I missed it. Those catfish are wild in the river, and they should have only been caught recently."
After hearing this, Liu Quan was stunned for an instant. He also understood why Master was so upset after watching Yuxuezi? Because he made Master miss the most delicious fish.
