Chapter 10 Lao Zhang's Philosophy (10)

The Chinese nation is ancient and brave.How do you see it?Prove it in a restaurant: Once you enter the restaurant, you will see flames three feet in front of you, and oil stars splashing randomly.Fat as a judge and vicious as an evil god, the cook holds a large iron ladle with a diameter of two feet and a handle of three feet long, soy sauce, vinegar, oil and salt, chicken, fish, duck, saliva, soot, fly feces, and pig hair, and treats them equally.When frying, shake the oil pan, and the three-foot-high flame will rush to the pan, like a pearl rolling upside down.The ladle holds the slices of meat, and with a flick of the wrist, the long tongue catches the slices of meat from the air, to taste the intensity of the taste.After trying it, he spit the meat slices into the pot again, and sneezed twice into the wok like a tiger pouncing on his food.When the fire was full, the sound of the ladle colliding with the iron pan made the gluttons hear it from two miles away.This is the first hurdle to enter the restaurant.Walking a few steps, several senior people standing in the hall said one by one: "The master is here! The master is here!" Then the young ones raised their squeaky voices a few times, "Look at the seats!"Then there was a burst of slapping shoe dust, bang bang opening soda, swishing flying towels to drive away the buzzing flies, (flies in restaurants are evergreen in winter and summer.) gurgling gargling to expand the range.This is the second level.The host and guest sit together, without ordering food, and sing "Erhuang" first.It doesn't matter whether the huqin is high or low, and whether the voice is good or bad, if someone sings it, someone will applaud it, and if someone applauds it, someone will sing again.Just use your voice, don't care about other people's eardrums.This is the third hurdle.After the second reed sings, order wine and food, don't order the cheap ones that are good for eating, and don't order the expensive ones, you have to eat them to vent your stomach.The wine should be bought out of the time-honored brand in its original packaging, and the tea should be brewed and kept in the refrigerator.Eat fresh melons and mung beans in winter, and fried sticky cakes every other year in summer.When the food and wine are served, first guess the boxing order, and slap the face, the sound is like a lion's roar, the entrance is three-way, and the air penetrates Changhong.The food and wine for entertaining guests is brought in repeatedly, for fear of not being enough; the wine for guests is exhausted, and they are as drunk as mud.This is the fourth level.When the roasted duck or the stuffed chicken were brought up, the rice bowl was lifted up and I didn't know where to send it, and the spoon was held upside down, and it was inserted into the eyebrows at a slant.Then a fit of nausea and a few bouts of vomiting.When I ate it, I didn't taste anything, but when I vomited it, I savored the sweetness. "Ren Dan" was poured, and he got on the rickshaw, the wind blew, he gradually woke up, and hummed again: "Master Xiandi, Huang Puma," in order to meet again at night.This is the fifth level.With these five levels, you can actually cut through the level and lose the lock, galloping like entering a no-man's land, this is called "eating and being brave"! "Successful intercourse rests on a sound appetite." Certainly not an easy maxim!

When Sun Ba arrived at Jiuheju, of course he had to fight through the five stages of the restaurant in turn.Nagarjuna refused to drink alcohol because of his religion.Lao Zhang repeatedly said: "Beer comes from foreign countries, and Christianity also came from foreign countries. Of course there is no conflict in drinking it." Jia Sun Bakou insisted that Officer Long must be frightened, so he drank three bottles of five-star beer.The drink was down, and he began a very affectionate conversation with the crowd.Speaking of the coachman Zhao Si, Officer Long firmly concluded: "Zhao Si forgot to pray to God in the morning, so how could he not break his leg. He runs much faster on weekdays than today, so why is he not in danger?" Arriving at Deshengmen, or...it's almost three o'clock now." Sun Ba asked.

"I don't think there's any need to go back," Lao Zhang said earnestly, "If you have breakfast, you won't be spared for dinner. You won't be bothered by a single guest. Go for a walk outside the city, and we'll discuss the regulations another day. Brothers are easy to gather together." "The articles of association are not difficult to draw up. Some of them are from self-government associations elsewhere. It's easy to borrow a copy to add and modify." Mr. Nan said to Sun Ba. "Mr. Nan, if you are distracted, go find a copy. If you modify it, you will submit the paper. Fortunately, people can still be bound by the regulations!" Long Shugu said with obvious experience. "Then, Mr. Nan, you have worked so hard!" Sun Ba bowed to Nan Feisheng.

"It's nothing, Eighth Master, where are we going?" Nan Feisheng asked. Li Dongdong ate too much and fell asleep faintly.Suddenly I vaguely heard someone talking about going out of the city, lifted my head from the table, opened my eyes, and said, "Go out of the city to listen to an opera! Little Perfume's 'Three Hangings'! Needless to say, listening is enjoyable! Let's go! Little Perfume!' Three hanged'!..." Lao Zhang has never spent his own money to listen to operas, so he naturally lacks knowledge of dramas.I don't know what kind of perfume the little perfume is, and "three hangings" is such a strange thing.It was inconvenient to ask, but he said in his heart: "I want to see this strange thing! I probably can't escape being forced to hang myself because of my debts! Hanging myself for not paying my debts is not a natural thing!..." He stood up and patted Sun Ba's shoulder, "The shopkeeper Li is the best at criticizing dramas, and he is sure to be right! Please, Ba Ye, when you marry your concubine, Lao Li and I will give you a big show!" Na Xiaoxing? When will you marry?" Nan Fei happily asked while blowing his little yellow beard.

"Hard work! Mr. Nan. Listen to Lao Zhang! Why do I want to marry a concubine?" "Concubine marriage is a personal matter, and listening to dramas is everyone's business. Will you go, Ba Ye? If you don't, I'm leaving!" Li Shandong said half awake and half asleep. "Yes! Shopkeeper Li, invite me, let's go!" Lao Zhang followed suit and put on a big shirt. "How hard it is! Let's go together, my favor!" Officer Long definitely refused to go, so he said goodbye and left.Sun Ba met the meal bill, and went out to the city with Lao Zhang and others for entertainment.
