Chapter 229
Hearing Wang Bo's inquiry, Jin Zhongtai said in a very formal voice: "Yes, Mr. Mayor, this is real Korean ginseng, from Changbai Mountain in ****, and it is pure wild ginseng!"
"Is the wild Korean ginseng called Tianshen? Compared with their Texas American ginseng, which one is better?" the Mexican pretty boy asked curiously.
Jin Zhongtai smiled and said: "No, Tianshen is the top grade of Korean ginseng. Our ginseng is divided into two types, red ginseng and white ginseng. Red ginseng is better for soup, and red ginseng is divided into heaven, earth, good and cut. Four grades, Tianshen is the best, Oceania is rare and expensive."
"Did you bring these Korean ginseng from your hometown?" Wang Bo asked suddenly.
Jin Zhongtai didn't know the purpose of his question, so he replied cautiously: "Yes, I have been opening restaurants since I came to New Zealand, and all the ginseng I use come from my home country. But most of them are cultivated artificially, and there are few wild ones. , can only be used to entertain distinguished guests."
Wang Bo asked: "Then can you get red ginseng and white ginseng seeds from your hometown? You may not know that ginseng is also grown in my hometown, and I know some planting techniques."
In fact, he is talking nonsense, he knows a fart of planting skills, his hometown is a fishing village, it is true that some people raise sea cucumbers, but no one grows ginseng.
But Jin Zhongtai said that high-grade Korean ginseng is very rare in Oceania, so Pharaoh moved his mind. Korean ginseng is a tonic. If this kind of thing is of good quality, it is easy to sell at a high price.
Lao Wang planted a vegetable garden heart two months ago. He felt that Korean ginseng should be grown in the vegetable garden. With the power of the lord to improve the quality of ginseng, it is not a big problem to sell it at a high price.
Lao Wang was very happy after having a dinner and found a new way to get rich.
Jin Zhongtai has ginseng seeds in his hand. He originally planned to plant them himself, but failed to plant them, so he had to buy them from China and mail them over.
Wang Bo said he wanted to buy some seeds, and Jin Zhongtai took out a box and gave it to him, saying that the seeds were actually worthless, and these things were only valuable after they were raised alive.
Lao Wang pretended to decline, but finally did not give the money.
The upright inspector couldn't see him, and kept staring at him.
Old Wang didn't care if he stared or not, put away the seeds and took a sip of the chicken soup. The soup had a sweet taste, but it was sweet and not greasy. The chicken tasted even smoother and tender, and the taste exceeded Wang Bo's expectations. .
Charlie and others were also very surprised after tasting it, and the whole group was amazed again and again:
"Xue Te, this is really delicious. This is the best chicken soup I've ever had."
"Are all Asians masters of cooking? Boss Jin's cooking skills are not as good as the boss's, but he is still very good."
"With such cooking skills, why do you come to our town to open a barbecue restaurant? I think even in Auckland and Wellington, there is a big market, right?"
Wang Bo was also curious. That's true. Not to mention the barbecue, the level of this bowl of chicken soup alone is enough for Jin Zhongtai to gain a foothold in restaurants in big cities.
Jin Zhongtai didn't answer, but Kobe answered. He tasted the chicken and said, "This should be chicken from the pasture. The meat is so tender. I can't think of any other place except the chicken in the pasture."
After hearing what he said, the Korean boss laughed and said: "Yes, that's why I am willing to come to Sunset Town. After I tasted the beef, mutton, chicken and duck produced in the town by chance, I was attracted by them. I decided to come here to open a barbecue restaurant!"
Kobe couldn't laugh here anymore, he also planned to open a restaurant in Sunset Town, but his idea collided with Kim Zhongtai.
In fact, it’s not just about ideas colliding, but there are many places where the two collided. For example, the process, Kobe’s restaurant building has just been built, and it’s also waiting to be forced, just like this Korean barbecue restaurant.
Seeing that his brother was in a bad mood, Charlie looked at him and whispered, "Dude, can you stop being so mean? This is just a barbecue restaurant. New Zealand is full of barbecue restaurants, but yours is a Michelin two-star restaurant, which is unique in New Zealand." !"
"It's not unique, there are more than a dozen." Kobe corrected.
Charlie rolled his eyes: "Okay, there are more than ten, but what about barbecue restaurants? Ten thousand!"
Hearing this, Kobe was stunned: "Yes, why do I lose confidence in myself now? Damn it, cooking for you every day has lowered my style. From today on, I will hone my cooking skills!"
After finishing the chicken soup, Jin Zhongtai lit the gas, and the Korean grill began to heat up. He put the sliced beef on it, and then slapped his hands.
Immediately, a young chef delivered a tray containing sesame sauce, chili sauce, tomato sauce, and chili powder, which he added to the meat himself.
After the meat was grilled, Jin Zhongtai sprinkled a little salt, then rolled it up with a lettuce leaf, raised his hands above his head and handed it to Wang Bo, and said respectfully: "Mr. Mayor, please taste."
Lao Wang is not used to it, he is a rough man, a rough man, it is good for everyone to eat together and come casually, the Korean boss is like his son-in-law giving him a gift, he can't accept it.
After taking a bite of the vegetable roll meat, Wang Bo nodded and said, "It's delicious. The meat is roasted without any burnt smell, but with a fragrance. It's really comfortable to eat!"
Jin Zhongtai poured him a glass of wine and said, "How can you not have Jinro with barbecue? Mr. Mayor, please, this is Jinro wine from our hometown. Please try it."
Wang Bo laughed dryly, "Is it okay to drink beer?"
After coming to New Zealand, he got used to drinking beer. Some local home-brewed beer tastes relatively light, with a strong aroma of wheat, just like drinking beverages.
Jin Zhongtai smiled and said: "Mr. Mayor, you should try it. This wine is related to you. If you want to trace the origin, the authentic identity of Zhenlu should be the shochu that originated in the Yuan Dynasty of your country. As far as I know , it was introduced to our Korean peninsula in the 14th century. In the history of our country, it was listed as a luxury high-grade wine for a long time, and its production was prohibited by the people, and it was even cited as a prescription by the Korean royal family."
Charlie also nodded and said, "Yes, try it. Korean Jinro wine is really delicious. I once drank it at the home of a Korean colleague. It is a good wine."
Jinro is a traditional Korean soju. It was originally a kind of alcohol, but now it has become a brand.
Seeing that the wine was white wine, Lao Wang was going to take a sip. Seeing this, Jin Zhongtai signaled: "You need to drink the real dew in one gulp to get the taste, don't drink it in small sips."
As he spoke, the Korean boss raised his head and sipped the white wine in the glass, grinning his teeth with a happy expression.
Lao Wang didn't know the degree of the wine, so he was mentally prepared before pouring the wine into his mouth together.
As a result, it was not as spicy and exciting as he expected, but he felt a sweet taste first, followed by the spicy taste of the wine.
Old Wang savored it for a while, and looked at Jin Zhongtai strangely, saying that the wine was fruit juice was a bit exaggerated, but it was really not irritating. What happened to the grinning expression of this guy just now?
