Chapter 29 Chapter 029

Ludao Restaurant is not a time-honored restaurant in Fengtian City, it is a new restaurant in less than ten years, but it is indeed a favorite of all the dignitaries in the city.The owner and master chef is named Luer, who was originally the imperial cook of the Empress Dowager Longyu. After the little emperor abdicated, Master Luer brought the craftsmanship and recipes of thousands of delicacies from the imperial dining room, as well as four apprentices from the water table to Fengtian. Cheng opened his own restaurant business. As soon as you enter the gate of Ludao Restaurant, you will see a small golden deer bestowed by the Empress Dowager to Master Luer sealed in a glazed cover. Under the glazed cover is a prototype water tank with a radius of five feet. With blisters.When a guest arrives and pushes the door to come in, there is bound to be a small wind. This set of decorations is called: Fengsheng, water rising, and Fulu (deer) coming.

Already the boss, Chef Lu Er, who seldom cooks, specially made four delicacies in person recently, served them with vintage wines, and brought them to the square hall of the East Wing on the third floor with his staff.There were four people sitting in it, and when Lu'er entered, he gave Xianyu the old Manchu courtesy: "The little prince won't come to take care of business for some time." Xian Xuan smiled, and helped him up: "I came here once, your business is so good, there is no room, so I will leave." "There is no one else's private seat, so I must have yours." Lu'er said, "Besides, I have just installed a telephone here, so what else do you want to taste, just say hello, and I will deliver it to you myself. "

The businessman was full of enthusiasm, he was originally from a Beijing movie, but he insisted on speaking Northeast dialect, with a kind of lively humor, all four people present laughed. Xian Yu asked the two people directly opposite: "Do you know who he is?" One person said: "Isn't it the boss here?" Xianyu said, "Lu'er." One of the two knew the allusion, and was quite shocked at the time, got up from his seat and said, "Royal Chef Lu'er?" "That's right." Xianyuan took a sip of his wine. The cook said with a faint smile, "Exactly, the deer with nine fingers."

The one who knew the allusion approached and asked Lu'er: "Then can I see your..." What he wanted to see was Lu'er's right hand.According to the legend, the imperial cook only had nine fingers. It wasn’t that one of his fingers was cut off, but that there was a layer of meat film between the thumb and index finger of his right hand, which was like a duck’s paw. Two fingers were combined into one finger. , into nine fingers.According to the legend, it was with such hands that Lu'er picked out the exact salt, sprinkled it into the pot with precise heat, and made an extremely delicious dish.But when he stretched out his right hand to show the guests, the man smiled. He saw five neat fingers, standard and neat, with protruding joints, complete and normal fingers with strong muscles. ?

The guest smiled: "Is the little prince joking?" The cook said: "Hey, another one who doesn't believe me. To tell the truth, I used to be a joint finger with a fleshy membrane. After I came out of the palace, I opened it and cut it off. When I handle the spoon in the palace, I use my nine fingers. After I come out, I need to have ten fingers to make a good plan..." Hearing this, the man picked up the boss's hand and looked at it carefully. Sure enough, there was a thin white scar on the inner side of the thumb and index finger, so he believed it, and several people looked at each other and laughed.

Boss Lu'er greeted him, accompanied him with a glass of wine, and left the room after saying that he still had to do something.Apart from Xianyu and Li Bofang who taught him books since he was a child and now helps him manage the affairs of the four people in the room, the other two are from Japan.After Emperor Xuantong abdicated, some nobles went into exile in Japan, gathered ambitious political and armed forces in the other country, secretly recruited troops, and intended to return to the mainland one day and restore the old system. These two were sent to stay in the three eastern provinces. Representatives of Bannermen and nobles.
