Text Chapter 1,779

Looking at the spring scenery of Dragon Gate, the fairy music of sacred flowers, the fantasy of lanterns, and the New Year painting scene at the Meng Yuan VIP Hotel, I felt quite interested and had a good feeling when I tried some of the best dishes of the year from the Creation Shrine and the Year of the Dragon Dinner.

There are some golden lanterns and jade trees and glazed branches in Mengxiang Garden, hung with lantern riddles and guessing, surrounded by the illusion of star-patterned petals and mini fireworks. There are traditional folk music and lantern fair and temple fair games in various areas of Mengyuan Hotel, but I did not participate. , only for viewing background.

I asked Lin Qisheng to guess what the author ate at the official restaurant of the four-star hotel that day? If you answer all questions correctly, you will receive a Dragon Head Festival food treasure box as a gift. The festive food inside is not much, but the food treasure box can be kept as a souvenir. It is made of medium to high grade sacred material and has first-class workmanship. It is still a good holiday gift.

Lin Qisheng said that there must be salt and pepper duck rack, not because the salt and pepper duck rack is delicious, but because it is cheap. The author often went to roast duck restaurants in the suburbs last year and always ordered the salt and pepper duck rack, which cost only more than 20 yuan a plate. Sometimes I want to order salt and pepper duck rack, but I don't have it yet. I can order that dish only when the restaurant has enough duck rack. I guess the price of the salt and pepper duck rack in that official restaurant is quite cheap, so I go there many times and sometimes order that dish. Guess what other dishes are on offer? It's hard to guess.

I said I ordered salt and pepper duck rack that afternoon, because that dish only cost fifteen yuan. The take-out duck rack in that restaurant only cost five yuan, and the salt and pepper processing fee was ten yuan. Of course, I had to order it. In that restaurant, there is no longer any. More affordable dishes. The price of some dishes in the hotel restaurant with official cuisine is considered expensive in the suburbs. For example, the braised pork elbow is 120 or 30 yuan, which is more than double the price of the pork elbow dish at the Guobaorou Restaurant. The braised pork belly at the Chunbing Restaurant is The pork elbow is 78 yuan. The pork elbow dishes in that restaurant are much more expensive than some restaurants. The Fugui shrimp balls are 198 yuan. A set of crispy and non-greasy roast duck is about 200 yuan. The overall price of the dishes is higher than that where the author often went last year. The roast duck restaurant is a bit more expensive, and the portions of some dishes are relatively small. That hotel restaurant has been open for more than 20 years. It is the longest restaurant in the suburbs. It is longer than the author has lived in the suburbs. Over the years, hundreds of hotels have been replaced in the suburbs, but that restaurant still stands. The restaurant's footprint is much smaller than before. It is said that when that restaurant was in its heyday, part of the coffee shop and Chinese restaurant on the first floor of the hotel were the lobby of the hotel, and they were connected together. After many years, the scale shrank and the area was no longer that big. Nowadays, there are only about ten tables in the lobby of that restaurant, but it still retains multiple private rooms. The New Year’s Eve dinner during the Chinese New Year starts at 2,000 yuan. If you don’t book in advance, there will be no seats. Usually, many people go to that restaurant to dine, spending as little as one or two hundred, sometimes as much as a few hundred. It is also common to spend thousands or thousands in a private room, and there are still regular customers who often go there. The service of the female manager of the restaurant is very good. She tries her best to respect the customers and make me feel satisfied. She can order low-priced dishes. After the meal, she will pack the duck rack to take away. The duck rack in the roast duck restaurant is relatively smaller, but the fruit-wood roasted duck has a more authentic taste. The duck rack in the official restaurant is very cheap, and the duck meat is slightly more reserved. I think it's okay, so I go there often during this period.

Lin Qisheng nodded. He said that it would be good for the author to dine in a restaurant in a star-rated hotel. The restaurant environment and food quality should be relatively good. It has been open for more than 20 years, so it obviously has some strength. It is estimated that it is in the suburbs. It's considered a mid-to-high-end restaurant, and the environment and experience should be okay.

I asked him to choose one of the festival foods I mentioned and continued the Dragon Head Festival guessing questions.

He said that there is probably no pork head meat. The braised pig head meat in a big supermarket is on sale for 20 yuan, right? Oh, it turns out that the special price is only 15.9 yuan, and there is a discount coupon for the full purchase, which is equivalent to a 10% discount on the entire order. The author of this family knows how to save money and is very thrifty when money is limited. Three hundred grams of braised pig head meat is not much. If the budget is sufficient, the author can eat two or three of the braised pork heads at one time. I can probably eat half of a roasted suckling pig. Don't ask him how he knows it. Everyone knows that the author has a very good appetite in the mortal world. As the nemesis of buffets, even if a high-end buffet restaurant costs hundreds of dollars per person, he can still make his money by eating lobster meat as a meal. of. It is estimated that the pork head cold dish in that mid-to-high-end restaurant should not be less than fifty or sixty yuan. I have already used holiday food as a late-night snack, so I probably won't choose it again. I don’t know which holiday food to choose. Fried spring rolls or deep-fried cakes, right? I finally stopped eating fried food for the time being, but when I went to a restaurant, I ordered fried food. The calories are not low and it is greasy, so it may not be good.

I said he was definitely ordering fried spring rolls or fried cakes as holiday food? Don't choose anything else?

He said he was not sure, so he chose dumplings as a festival food, hoping that the author would eat dumplings on the Dragon Head Festival in the mortal world, which would mean making a lot of money and making a lot of money.

I said congratulations to him for guessing correctly, haha. The author ordered leek and egg dumplings that afternoon, and already guessed the salt and pepper duck rack and festival food dumplings correctly. I also ordered two other dishes that day. Let him guess what they are? See if you can answer them all correctly and get rewards.

Lin Qisheng asked how to guess? Who can answer this correctly? There must be a hundred and eighty dishes in that restaurant? There may be twenty or thirty dishes in the New Year's Eve dinner set menu, so it is estimated that there will be no shortage of dishes.

I said that I could copy a recipe and give it to him, and he could choose two dishes. If he answered correctly, he would get the Dragon Head Festival food treasure box. That kind of meal treasure box comes with holiday special effects and historical audio and video stories, making it a collectible.

Lin Qisheng said he didn't want to guess anymore. Choosing the right two dishes from dozens of dishes was not so easy. Although the price of the elbow roast duck and shrimp balls in that restaurant is more expensive, maybe the author has gone above and beyond this time and made the more expensive dishes at the leading point. Living a good life during the festival means good luck and wealth. On the holiday, you may not want to spend extra money ordering food. Anyway, he didn't choose. He hoped that the author could order satisfactory dishes and be happy.

I said that the Fu Lu Shou cake I ordered that day was called Ji Qing Yu Yu. The Fu Lu Shou cake was six pieces of pastry. I asked him to think about what Ji Qing Yu Yu was.

He said it should be a fish dish, or a snack dish. If you order a fish dish, please eat it slowly. The one with fish bones sounds good. It’s good to eat dumplings during the Dragon Head Festival and order a dish with an auspicious name. It's really good that the author can still have such an arrangement under the condition of limited budget. I’ll order the braised pork with plums and vegetables and the fried vermicelli in oil from that restaurant later. During the holidays, it’s really appropriate to have some auspicious dishes, which will bring good luck and wealth.

I said that the Ji Qing Youyu in that restaurant is made with hawthorn cake. There are two hawthorn cake fish, but the pressing is not very good. It is decorated with some peas. It costs 26 yuan a plate. The price is not high, so naturally I ordered it. . Fu Lu Shou Gao is a steamed cake made of mixed glutinous rice. There are two characters each for "Fu" in purple, "Lu" in yellow, and "Shou" in brown. A total of six pieces cost 18 yuan. Leek and egg dumplings cost 28 yuan. I heard from the clerk that there were twenty dumplings. I originally wanted to order a meat dish, but I thought about it. I will try it again next time. There are many opportunities. I hope the budget will not exceed the budget. I also packed two ducks. Racks to take away. When checking out, the female manager asked for a restaurant gift bag, which included candies and snacks. There were not many things in it, including mini twists, spicy pea mints, etc. It was just to celebrate, so I didn’t buy pastries this time and chose to take the car back. Home. That afternoon, I left a message on the chat software, wishing my mother a happy Dragon Head Day, all the best, and a successful career. I called her at almost nine o'clock in the evening. She has been very busy during this period. She has held many meetings in some places in the airport area of ​​​​Yuan City, met various people, and worked hard to promote trade cooperation. Her friend abroad, the male lawyer, urged her to get something done as soon as possible. My mother felt that she had tried her best and would continue to work hard to complete her career. She hoped that her career would be great, she would make a lot of money this year, and her life would be improved. I said God bless her, and she will fulfill the mission and heavy responsibility given by God. There is a reason why she has stayed in that small country for more than ten years. She has been tested and experienced, gained experience and courage, and has experienced a lot, all of which are paving the way for major undertakings. , increase your foundation and connections. She has said many times that she is a person who can achieve great things. She has been unwilling to be inferior to others since she was a child, and has always been competitive. She must be the best among others. However, for many years she felt that her talents were not recognized and she did not realize her potential. More than 20 years ago, she She mistakenly believed in a bad person and lost more than 2 million yuan in the stock market. Although she started many businesses in the future, they were not what she wanted. She hoped to regain her financial resources with a lot of cash and wanted to buy tens of millions of real estate in a fancy big city in the future. There is a garden villa with a swimming pool in the wealthy area of ​​the capital of that small country. She also hopes to help some relatives. She wants to help some relatives whether they are good to her or not. She feels that she is destined to be a relative and friend and should treat her well, so she On this New Year’s Eve, my wish is to get rich and become a truly rich man before I turn sixty. I said that the business she was doing was to help the two countries have friendly exchanges, and she was doing good things that benefited the country and the people. She strengthened the basis of some trade exchanges between the two sides. There will be a lot of things to do in the future. Enterprises from a large country can help a city in a small country expand a free trade zone and add infrastructure. That city is a port city that can serve multiple countries and can transport a lot of resources and products to the East. If direct air flights can be opened in the future, people will not have to spend more time to transfer, which can greatly promote various exchanges between the two continents. Direct flights will arrive in more than ten hours, and direct air transportation and tourism can be realized. Instead of going to international airports in Western countries for decades to transfer, they have to wait at the airport for the connecting international flight, which takes a total of thirty or forty hours to arrive. Because it is too troublesome, many wealthy people in the East No one has ever been to a small country. If direct flights can be opened for tourism in the future, it will be a huge economic income. The continents where small countries are located have untapped resources and energy, which can be transported by air and sea in larger quantities to places with strong financial resources. Small countries and nearby countries can develop better with more capital injection. If the aerial Silk Road between two continents can be realized, it will be a great cause that will be remembered for thousands of years and leave a name in history, and it will have a bright future.
