Chapter 233 abalone feast (2) the abalone thermostat had a capacity of 20 liters, about the same as a normal microwave oven
The four full thermostats were obviously beyond Liu Ziqing's expectations and did not even react for a moment
Until huang xuan said, "Hey, no more
" Liu Ziqing hurriedly took the box from Huang Xuan
It was sealed, so he couldn't help but ask, "How many are there
" "36 Big abalone, some small
" Huang Xuan stretched his shoulders downwards
The abalone wasn't heavy, but the incubator was not light
Although it was portable, it contained large batteries similar to laptops, control ics, and pure copper heat exchangers
Together, it weighed five kilograms
"36
" Liu Ziqing's eyeball had a strong nerve connection
He made a smile and said, "Since it's an abalone feast, we can't have one each
What does Mr
Li say
" "Master li had expected that if there were two three-headed abalones
" Liu Ziqing paused and hesitated, "How big is the abalone
" "Well, most of them are three-headed abalones, and there are six two-headed abalones that I chose
My family probably rarely eats them
Try them
" Liu Ziqing's eyeball connection was tenaciously tested
He swallowed his words and made a gesture, "Ok, I'll give it to master li
" He had secretly decided to stay away from his crazy boss
In the kitchen, li wenji stood behind the egg and watched him stir the old soup with a spoon, "Abalone is cooked in high soup
The most important thing is the heat
If the heat is too high, the Jinhua ham will disperse easily, and the soup will be thick
If the heat is small, the shark's fin and bird's nest can't be stewed, and the aroma of chicken can't come out, so the taste will be weak
" Just as he was speaking, Liu Ziqing and Li Qing came in with their incubators
The former said loudly, "Master li, here's the abalone
" "Oh, how is it
" Li Wenji also came over looking forward to it
He would agree to this abalone feast, largely because he wanted to see Huang Xuan's strength and cook a few top three Wangbao
Ordinary wild three-headed abalone, 500,000 can be obtained, and domestic abalone has a record of less than 100,000, but such a high-quality three-headed Wangbao, but not anyone can afford to eat, buy
In his opinion, Huang Xuan should not be reluctant to eat himself
Liu Ziqing's expression was very strange
He carefully placed the thermos on the table and took the thermos that Li Qing was holding
He was next to the other two boxes and said, "Why don't you take a look first
" He felt that if he repeated Huang Xuan's words, it would be to test the hearts of the people present and create chaos
Li Wenji, like many people in Hongkong, shrugged his shoulders, took off his gloves and greeted, "Huazai, come and help
" Huazai was a young man in his twenties and a small chef from the Fulin hotel
He had just risen from a side dish to a spoon and was qualified to make a dish, but he was serious and was liked by Li Wenji, so he had the opportunity to go out with his master like a preserved egg
With a low promise, Huazai ran to Li Wenji and took two wooden plates, waiting for him to pick up the abalone
The first incubator opened
Liu Ziqing glanced at the abalone, which was smaller than the palm of his hand
It was smaller than the abalone that Huang Xuan had taken out the day before
Li Wenji was careful
As he held the abalone out with both hands, he seemed to explain to hua zai: "The reason why dried abalone tastes better than fresh abalone is that it has a soft heart
There is no difference between dried abalone without a soft heart and steamed bun dregs
Now people are not particular about it
The abalone that is raised is too cheap
Many dried abalones have no soft heart
" Li Wenji said as he flipped through the abalone and said, "The top four Wangbao have sex in their hearts, at least 300,000 each
" He looked up at Liu Ziqing and exclaimed, "Your boss has power
" Liu Ziqing didn't say anything
He was still waiting for li wenji to open another incubator
Li wenji spoke, but his hands kept on moving
He fished out the abalone and laid it flat on the wooden plate
The box was layered
He took out six on the first floor and another six
The young man next to him swallowed and said, "That's three million
" "More than that
" Liu Ziqing, who had done his homework, snorted and said, "If it wasn't in a house, I would have called security just now
I was shaking in my hands
" "A thief who is so knowledgeable is considered an elegant thief
" Li Wenji smiled and opened the abalone stall on this floor, then picked up the lower floor
"Eh, so small
" Huazai called out
Liu Ziqing also turned over to look, and sure enough, they were all small abalone under 20 heads
The preserved egg on the side looked over and gave Huazai a shoulder, "I don't understand," he said
"It's not easy for little abalone to get loose in the sun, and these are what rich people eat
" "How much is this small
" Huazai, who had just seen the four-headed abalone, said unhappily, "I can eat this too
" "You can afford it
" Pipan sneered, "These are not for the table
" "Not on the table
" Seeing that Liu Ziqing was listening, the preserved egg said seriously, "Although these abalone are only 28 or 30 heads big, they are authentic jipin abalone
They are only soft hearts
After simmering, they are put in the refrigerator
When you want to eat, take one and eat it, just like snacks
" "Dessert
" Huazai added to his lips and said, "This abalone should be worth 1000 yuan, right
" Li Wenji picked up the small abalone one by one and said, "Almost
In the 1980s, many rich people in Hongkong liked to eat like this, but now very few people can eat it
Abalone is less and less, and now 28 abalones can be served
" "Hongkong eats so many abalones every year, of course
" Pipan looked at the fire and said, "I'm afraid when I can make a meal, I won't even see four abalones
" "It's almost gone now
" Li Wenji shook his head and said, "In the past two years, there were still people who wanted to pay a high price to try two abalones
They didn't sell them at 5 million yuan
I think they didn't sell them either
There are no two abalones in the world
Sometimes there are family treasures
It's really not as good as putting them in a safe
At the current rate of appreciation, they are definitely more profitable than investing in the stock market
Think about it
Three kilos of abalone can be counted as three heads of abalone
Let alone Wangbao, even jipin abalone needs to grow for thirty or forty years
Two abalones need to be dried with five kilos of abalone
They can't grow for 100 years
The bigger the abalone, the slower it grows
I haven't seen two abalones in almost five years
When your master gave Deng Xiaoping a state banquet, he saw two abalones
That was 40 years ago
" Li Wenji's master, of course, is Yang Guanyi
As he was speaking, Huazai said in a muffled voice, "Chef, look at this abalone
It seems a little too big
" "Hmm
" Li Wenji didn't care
She turned her head around and almost bit her tongue with a "Oh
" In the second incubator, there were two abalones, which looked like a treasure, with the edges tilted up, just like the palm of an adult's hand
Li Wenji let out a long breath, as if he wanted to spit out the air in his lungs
He gently grabbed the abalone by the bottom of his hand, took it over his head, and placed it in the light
Under the light, the red color came out along the edge, "Two abalones
" Li Wenji whispered, "These are two abalones
" The people in the kitchen stopped and looked at the pilgrimage of Li Wenji
For a chef who had just started to cook abalone in the 1990s, it was lucky to see two abalones
Huazai placed the wooden plate in the thermostat in the kitchen, turned around and handed it over
Li Wenji carefully placed the two abalones on top of the plate, as if they were really carrying the treasure
He took a breath and wanted to take a look at Liu Ziqing, but he didn't, so he opened the second layer of the thermostat
There was a series of screams
The chefs here, whether they were from the Fulin hotel or Li Wenji, who was invited from a nearby restaurant, whether they knew it or not, had just heard him introduce two abalones, each of which cost 5 million and was not available at all
Wasn't there already 20 million
Li Wenji held his breath and shone the two abalones under the light
The same red light came out through his body
It was the sign of a soft heart
He moved his shoulders and placed them on the plate that Huazai was holding
The latter was worried that he would miss and had changed to hug
Steadily, but slowly, Li Wenji opened the third floor of the thermostat
Two equally dazzling abalone
The two dried abalones were actually not big at all
They were only ten centimeters tall and had an obvious waist curve
They were thirty centimeters long, but in the eyes of everyone, they were placed as big as diamonds
Liu Ziqing looked at Li Wenji as if he was making a pilgrimage and knew that with his own plan, it was almost certain that he would cooperate again
At this time, he was talking and laughing with his grandfather
Huang jindi was an old fashioned man who liked the feeling that his children and grandchildren would be happy together
The long table he had prepared was also kicked out by him
In the living room, a rosewood round eight fairy table was replaced
It was an old furniture of the guangxu period
It should have been left by Huang Xuan's great-grandfather, Huang Jindi's grandfather
It was said that it was a captured trophy
The officers who were born with mud legs didn't know how to handle it
They burned two and left two
Later on, when he knew it was valuable, he kept it in the old house
Huang Jindi liked it and took it out
Huang Sugui couldn't say anything wrong
Huang Jindi made it clear that it was for Huang Xuan, so the two uncles understood what their father was thinking
The waiter who had been invited from the hotel was waiting on both sides of the hall, ready to serve tea and water
There were many people in the room, and even the tea seemed to be drinking quickly
Zhou Li stood behind Huang Jindi and tried the temperature of the water for him to get something he couldn't reach
Zhou Lian was in and out of the room, commanding him
Zhang xinyi led Xiaodiao meimei in through the main door and pulled her to Huang Jindi's side, "Dad, this is Ren Ruochan, my goddaughter
" At this moment, Huang Jindi, less dignified, more gentle
Seeing Xiaodiao's beautiful and beautiful eyebrows, very close to the eye, he said, "Good, good
" He sat in a large chair and asked, "Ruo Chan, right
How old are you this year
" Unexpectedly, when she saw huang jindi asking questions like the elders in her hometown and Huang Xuan's grandfather, Xiaodiao meimei knelt on her knees and kowtowed three times respectfully before saying, "She's 16 years old this year
" These three kowtowing people in modern times were not used to it, but Huang Jindi, who kowtowed, was very happy
He stood up and personally pulled Xiaodiao up
He said happily, "Such a beautiful girl, come, sit next to grandpa
" His thoughts could still keep up with the times, but the old people, especially the retired ones, always needed the respect and attention of the children
Xiaodiao meimei met huang jindi's requirements for his children and grandchildren appropriately
He immediately felt happy, and touched in his arms, then asked Zhou Li: "Where's my bracelet
" "Here it is
" Zhou Li hurriedly handed the small box in his coat pocket to Huang Jindi
Today was a family dinner
As an elder, he would naturally bring a lot of small gifts as red envelopes
"Come on, this is a gift from grandpa
" Huang jindi said as he took out a pair of jade bracelets from the box
They were full of green and delicate
Diaochan naturally recognized the value of the bracelet
In the han dynasty, jade and jade were the most important, followed by copper
Wang Yun, as Sima, was frequently in and out of the family's wealth, but such jade was rare
However, Xiaodiao meimei did not refuse and reached out for Huang Jindi to put the bracelet on her
Yang Li walked over with a smile and said jokingly, "What a lovely little girl
Since your grandfather likes it, your aunt also gave you a gift
Things are not as good as grandpa's
You can't despise them
" She took Ruo Chan's hand, took out the gift she had prepared, and said, "This is a brooch
Try and see if it fits
" Xiaodiao meimei smiled before she spoke and said, "Thank you, auntie
" The brooch was made of broken diamonds with a forked tail and a bright red gemstone at the front
The polished edges were shiny and valuable as well
Although Huang Yanbang had a public meal, the The yang family had a lot of money, which was obviously prepared by Yang Li himself
If Yang Li gave such an expensive gift on a normal day, Huang Yanbang would always be a little unhappy
But today, for one thing, it was a family dinner, and Xiaodiao meimei had a good look, and for another, she was liked by Huang Jindi
Her father had given her such a big gift, and Yang Li had given her another brooch, so he didn't say anything more and kept smiling
With Huang Xuan's first aunt, auntie also took out prepared gifts, Xiaodiao meimei took a turn, basically put together a suit of clothes, looking at Huang Xuan was happy and envious
He was only treated like this when he was one year old
