Chapter 2467: The Power of Lao Rou

Apart from the Ye family, it’s all the old people. His wealth is naturally not as terrible as the third eldest son of the Ye family, but it will never be worse than the second eldest son.

The most important thing is that people in Xuzhuang never have to worry about not making money. Even the worst families can send their children to find old meat when they reach adulthood.

The wages and benefits at Brother Real Estate are definitely not comparable to those in ordinary places. What's more, Laorou has a strong sense of hometown, and he takes great care of his fellow villagers.

Almost all the people who went out with Lao Rou at the beginning have come back to take care of themselves. They did not catch up with the good times, and there were no pensions at that time.

However, now the village has begun to provide pensions to senior citizens over the age of sixty. Although it is not much, there is still no problem in eating and drinking.

The main reason is that my children currently have good incomes, so there is no burden to take care of an elderly person.

The Ye family has built a nursing home in the village, and the lonely elderly people in the village are taken care of. Even those with children at home who have no time to take care of them because they are busy can also be sent there. But you have to pay for this.

In fact, strictly speaking, nursing homes provide better care than children because the staff inside are all professional.

The disadvantage is that in terms of diet, the meals in nursing homes are all nutritious meals, and attention should be paid to the balance of materials in all aspects. How could my family understand this?

But because the elderly are used to home-cooked meals, the food in nursing homes tastes bland and bland.

There is nothing we can do about this, because there are strict dietary requirements there, especially strict regulations on salt intake.

Traditional Chinese medicine actually has a very vivid metaphor for the life of the elderly, which is eating glutinous rice bran. Just eat more whole grains, vegetables, and meat.

Naturally, the nursing home has shares in Lao Rou, and he naturally has to take money every year. This is also one of the reasons for his high prestige.

Also, workers who leave here will generally be reused as long as they are not too bad. No one can say anything about this.

Although Ye Yuze is the largest shareholder, Laorou is the chairman. If he doesn't use people from his hometown, why should he use outsiders?

Xu Chang, who was kicked, argued unconvinced, then pointed his finger, and then, the old man's entire face turned black.

It turned out that Yang Geyong was building scaffolding. The scaffolding was more than ten stories high and required wearing a helmet and a safety rope. This was the most basic requirement.

As a result, not only was the guy not wearing anything, he was actually carrying iron and walking on an iron pipe without a chain plate.

The angry old man rushed over, pointed at Yang Geyong and cursed:

"If you want to die, don't bring trouble to others. You work like this and others follow your example. How can you still do this job?"

Yang Geyong glared: "Who dares to imitate me and cut him off! Don't squawk with me. If you fall from this height, I will grab something as soon as I reach out."

The old man's eyes were even bigger than his own: "Stop fucking bragging. Do you think you, an angel, can grow wings if you fall down? The same thing happens when you fall into a picture and stick it on the ground."

Seeing the old man scolding him, Yang Geyong felt angry. Apart from his parents, Ye Yuze was the only one who taught him not to talk back. How could he give in to others?

Just give me some face at the beginning, but it's not over yet, just throw the iron pipe away, and if you get close enough, you'll catch me.

Then Xu Chang and Xu Fei stood directly in front, followed by the fat and strong Adrian Smith, whose eyes were as wide as those of an ox.

Seeing that people were still crowding around the old man, Yang Geyong understood that this was someone else's territory and he couldn't act wildly. However, he couldn't get out of it after being scolded, and he held his neck to save face:

"Why are you scolding me? Apologize to me. If you apologize, I will wear a hat and tie the rope."

Listening to Yang Geyong's almost rogue words, the old man laughed angrily and shook his head helplessly:

"Brother Yong, Uncle Yong. I shouldn't scold you, but you must not violate labor discipline. Otherwise, we won't be able to lead this team in the future. If I go to your oil field to smoke, will you do it?"

Yang Geyong glared: "I can't put the cigarette in your mouth."

The old man spread his hands and said, "Yeah, then why don't you wear a helmet or a safety rope when I'm here?"

Yang Geyong stepped forward and grabbed Xu Chang and Xu Fei one by one:

"Go find me a hat and a rope. It's not that I don't wear them, it's that I didn't find them!"

Then throw them to the ground like two bricks.

Xu Chang and Xu Fei, who had just gotten off the bus, looked like they were trying to kill their old man. They immediately went to look for something for Yang Geyong like kittens. This guy is not a human, he is simply a humanoid ferocious beast. Too special. So scary.

Yang Geyong originally intended to teach him a lesson, but both of them were a bit lame when running.

Adrian Smith touched his thigh, felt frightened for a while, and unconsciously hid behind the old man, it was safer here.

At noon, Laorou called Yang Geyong to have dinner. In fact, although the two of them are familiar with each other, they have not gotten along very well.

However, Yang Geyong's temper is well known. If he can let him do this, he must be giving Ye Yuze face.

But on the construction site, even Ye Yuze wouldn't give face to him. This was a matter of principle, otherwise he wouldn't be able to manage people in the future.

Yang Geyong was not pretentious and followed. The old meat shop owner has gained some experience by now.

There is really nothing special about the things in the old capital, except that they are a bit more sophisticated. I also don’t understand why there is so little food in these ancient capitals.

But now there are many people from outside the city coming to the capital to open restaurants, selling everything. Laorou is now exploring these things.

Yesterday I met a Chongqing hot pot restaurant, run by a mother and daughter, in an alley near Houhai. The place is not big, but the business is so good that even if I get there late, I have to wait.

Lao Rou made an appointment to eat at noon today, and called Yang Geyong by the way. They called Ye Yuze halfway, but Ye Yuze didn't like hot pot, so he didn't come.

In fact, Ye Yuze has been lonely these days, men are like this. Although he and Lili are reunited after a long separation, they are also an old couple.

Han Xiaojing, for various reasons, has no interaction. What they have is just pure spiritual dependence.

It is human nature to like new things and dislike old things. Ye Yuze, who likes new things but not old things, can generally be called a good man.

Human greed has nothing to do with poverty and wealth, because the poor are greedy, and the rich are greedier. If the rich are greedier than the poor, they can't become rich.

Just like Ye Yuze, although he seems to be indifferent to the world, what is he actually? If he didn't have ambition, how could he do so many things? He already had a wife and children.

Now, he doesn't need to earn money. He doesn't need to do anything, and the money will flow into his account like water.

However, unlike Yang Geyong, Yang Geyong had been an animal for decades and suddenly wanted to be a human again and taste the taste of love.

However, Ye Yuze's understanding of human nature made him no longer interested in feelings. He suddenly wanted to try something with a stranger? What would it feel like?

He didn't go to eat with Lao Rou and the others, but he couldn't go hungry? Lili wanted to come back to accompany him, but he refused. He was tired of the days when women were waiting for him wherever he went.

The prosperity of the capital is no longer comparable to the past. Every time you come, there will be huge changes. The original alleys with blue bricks and blue tiles are becoming fewer and fewer, and they are followed by high-rise buildings.

Just walking on such a high-rise street, Ye Yuze always felt that something was missing. What was missing? Ye Yuze couldn't think of it for a while.

He felt a little irritable for some reason, and turned into an alley. Nowadays, there are fewer and fewer alleys like this in Beijing.

The alley is very narrow, and there are large courtyards inside. Because there are many people living in such courtyards, even small houses are built in the yards. It was so hard to push a bicycle into the yard.

However, every yard was very lively, with adults shouting, children making noises, and the aroma of food wafting from every household.

One family had a south-facing room, and simply turned the house into a small restaurant, selling noodles with soybean paste. Smelling the familiar smell of soybean paste, Ye Yuze's stomach couldn't help but growl.

Ye Yuze liked Beijing's noodles with soybean paste. People in Hebei Province liked to use soybean paste for noodles with soybean paste, and people in Jinshi liked to use sweet bean paste, while people in Beijing liked to mix the two sauces together for frying.

You must choose the right meat for the fried sauce, the kind with three layers of pork belly. Wash the pork belly, remove the pig skin, and cut it into 5 cm square cubes. The size can refer to your thumb.

Wash the green onion, cut it in half, and then cut it into fingernail-sized chopped green onion. Peel the ginger, wash it, and cut it into minced ginger. Crush the garlic and chop it into minced garlic.

Then prepare the ingredients for the noodles. Wash and shred the cucumber, peel and cut the radish into even thin strips, soak the soybeans in clean water overnight, and cook them over low heat until they are fully cooked.

Boil the soybeans in boiling water and cool them for later use. Wash the carrots and cut them into thin strips. Cut the celery into granules and blanch them in boiling water, remove them and cool them for later use. Blanch the mung bean sprouts until they are cooked, then drain them in cold water. Wash and cut the green garlic into minced green garlic for later use.

Heat the wok and add a little more salad oil as the base oil. Add the diced pork belly and fry until it changes color and is cooked. Add the minced ginger and chopped green onion and fry them over low heat for about three minutes until golden brown. After the aroma of green onion and ginger comes out, add the minced garlic and fry them over low heat until fragrant.

When the garlic aroma comes out, adjust the heat to medium heat and add the diluted dry yellow sauce and fry for about five minutes. When the sauce boils, add the sweet noodle sauce and stir well.

Use a spoon to push the sauce continuously to prevent it from sticking to the bottom. Boil the sauce until it bubbles and heat it for about 10 minutes.

When the water content is significantly reduced, turn to low heat and continue to simmer for about 30 minutes. Stir the bottom of the pot frequently in the middle to fry all the water in the sauce. When the sauce is thick and the sauce and diced meat are in a clumping shape, the sauce is almost fried.

Add a little MSG and chicken essence to adjust the flavor, and then add an appropriate amount of white sugar to adjust the overall flavor. Continue to simmer for 2 minutes, and the sauce is ready.

The longer the sauce is fried, the richer the flavor. If you think it is time-consuming, you can reduce the water content of the sauce and shorten the preparation time of the sauce. In principle, it takes about an hour to fry the sauce. If the time is short, the taste of the sauce is not strong enough.

It is also important to pay attention to the heat of the sauce, especially in the process of frying the sauce. Water cannot be added in the middle. Pay attention to one-time molding. After adding water, the sauce will leak and cannot be fried dry.

Prepare the hand-rolled noodles, boil the water in the pot until it is slightly boiling, and cook for about three minutes, adding cold water two or three times in the middle. Cooking noodles in this way can make the noodles more chewy.

Prepare a basin of cold water, rinse the noodles immediately after they are cooked, then scoop them into a large bowl, add your favorite vegetables, scoop two spoons of fried sauce, mix well and you can eat.

In fact, some elderly people don't like to eat noodles in water, but like to eat them directly, which is called pot picking.

Although this is not as smooth and chewy, it can better blend the taste of fried sauce and has a unique flavor.

As soon as he smelled the sauce, Ye Yuze knew that this was definitely a restaurant opened by old Beijingers.

Nowadays, there are old BJ-style restaurants on the commercial street and pedestrian street. When you walk in, basically no one speaks Beijing dialect.

The most annoying thing is that people who speak Cantonese are seriously selling authentic fried noodles and fried tripe there. It is estimated that before they came to Beijing, they didn't even know what fried noodles were.

Ye Yuze really doesn't like people like this. It's not that there is any regional discrimination, but isn't it good for you to sell some Cantonese snacks? Why do I, a foreigner, have to come here to deceive foreigners?

When we entered the room, there were only six tables with many guests, and they were basically full. Seeing Ye Yuze come in, the landlady greeted him warmly.

Seeing that the table was full, I discussed with a few scantily clad girls:

"Girl, why don't you let this big brother squeeze in with you? He is alone and will leave after eating."

A girl smiled and said: "What are we discussing? Just come over and do it. We just eat a bowl of noodles and we won't drink wine at your place."

His accent sounded Northeastern, and his speech was crisp and bold.

Ye Yuze thanked him cheerfully and sat down. The landlady asked him what he wanted to eat.

Ye Yuze looked up and saw some braised food on the bar, so he asked her to cut two plates and bring them over. Then just have another bowl of noodles.

In another alley not far away, Lao Rou and three people were in a daze in front of a hot pot.

Although both Laorou and Yang Geyong have traveled extensively, they have never been to Chongqing. This is the first time they have seen the authentic hot pot that is famous in China.

The boss asked Lao Rou whether it was mildly spicy or medium spicy. Lao Rou waved his hand boldly: "Let's go for medium spicy!"

When the hot pot was served, the old man was frightened. What does the thick layer of chili peppers floating in this Nima pot mean? Are you asking us to eat chili peppers or shabu-shabu?

There is also a lot of red oil under the peppers. Don’t Chongqing people use soup for shabu-shabu? Deep-fried?

However, as the dishes were served one after another, a few people realized that these were the ingredients, and those things floating in the pot belonged to the bottom of the pot.

Lao Rou and Yang Geyong did not move the items that looked unfamiliar to them. Instead, they stretched out their chopsticks to pick up the mutton slices and put them into the pot.

As the mutton entered the pot, they discovered that under the calm red oil, the soup had already rolled. As soon as the mutton was thrown in, the color inside changed.

At this time, the waiter brought a small bowl over, which was actually filled with sesame oil. The old man couldn't help but ask:

"We want small stuff, not this."

The waiter was stunned: "This is the dipping sauce. Do you want to add some spicy millet to it?"

The old man's head immediately shook like a rattle, and he wouldn't dare to add chili pepper even if I beat him to death.

Watching the two people eating and grinning, Adrian Smith asked enthusiastically:

"How's it going? Is it delicious?"

On the fourth day to last, my votes are so bad, dear.
