Chapter 1,652: Heavy Recruitment
Lu Mo felt strange, "Hasn't your wedding banquet been contracted to Jin Jiang Hotel? The chef there can't cook it?"
Jin Jiang Hotel has even hosted state guests. The kitchen has a mix of all major cuisines, both Chinese and Western. How could there be dishes they can't cook?
Dingba shook his head, "I really don't know how to cook it. I've asked before. They can cook other lotus dishes, but they can't cook hibiscus water. They also said that they have never heard of the name of this dish. Maybe it comes from somewhere. A niche dish.”
"Why do you have to cook this dish on the wedding day? You can look for it later. It's only three days before your wedding. There's no time." Lu Mo was even more surprised. Ding Ba was not enthusiastic about getting married at all. What's wrong with him now? Interested again.
Ding Ba took a sip of wine and sighed, "I didn't just know this. It's a coincidence. It's the old man's birthday in three days. He is ninety-three years old. After ninety, any year is a birthday, so I thought Let him eat something good."
Lu Mo and He Weishao were both surprised. It was a coincidence. Ding Ba's wedding date was chosen by Master Dao Yi. It was impossible to specifically choose Gong Yi's birthday. No wonder Ding Ba wanted to make this dish.
"Then you go ask the old man where the hibiscus water comes from. At worst, we can invite the best chef there." Lu Mo came up with an idea.
Dingba sighed again, "I asked, and they said it was from a small town in the north (this dish is made up). I asked a chef there to make it, but the old man was not satisfied and said it didn't taste like what he ate."
Who knew that the old man could be so cunning. He and Gongsun Yu hired several chefs to make the dish Furong Chushui. The old man was not satisfied with any of the dishes. He even said it tasted worse than pig food. He even suspected that what the old man had eaten before was not at all. Hibiscus is out of water.
Otherwise, just make soup with a lotus flower. What delicious food can you get? He specifically asked about the dish of hibiscus water, which was invented by the poor people during the famine. Take the lotus flower and add some cornmeal to cook the soup, mix it with water, and it turns out that It's called lotus pimple soup.
Later, a reader gave it an elegant name, Furong Izuku, and even improved it, but it just had the same taste, nothing delicious.
"I guess what the old man is eating is an improved one. Let's send a notice throughout the city to see if anyone can make the hibiscus water dish. Choose the one with the best taste. There is nothing you can do if the old man is not satisfied. You just have to do your best." Lu Mo came up with an idea.
Ding Ba sighed, "This is the only way."
Lu Mo acted resolutely, and the next day he had people publish notices on TV stations, radio stations, and major newspapers, asking those who knew how to do lotus sex to apply, and if they were selected, they would be rewarded with 50,000 yuan.
The salary at this time was only a few hundred yuan, and the remuneration of 50,000 yuan would definitely impress people. As soon as the announcement was released, countless people came to apply for the job. The location was Ye Qingqing's house.
Because Ye Qingqing took this matter on her own, Lu Mo was extremely busy. Since she was idle anyway, she naturally had to share her man's worries, but Ye Qingqing did not expect that there would be so many people applying for the job.
There was a huge crowd of people shouting and cheering, blocking Fuai Road. Even the neighborhood committee was alarmed. When they heard that Ye Qingqing wanted to choose delicious food, many bored adults came over excitedly. Help Zhang Yan, the Ye family has been very lively these days.
Ye Qingqing also specially invited Tang Yuan Yuan, the emperor's tongue, to help out. If even Tang Yuan Yuan feels delicious, Gong Yi will definitely be satisfied.
