Chapter 224 Rice Tofu
At present, the contents of the menus of small restaurants in China are not much different. After excluding those slightly larger restaurants and private kitchens, the similarity of the menus can reach 60.00%.
But don't be fooled by the names on the menu.
When you arrive at a new place, if you order fish-flavored shredded pork or stir-fried vegetables, you will not taste the taste you expected. Different eating habits will give rise to different cooking techniques.
Ye Kai ordered fish-flavored shredded pork, green vegetables, and fried rice tofu. Although the method and taste are different from Sichuan cuisine, the taste is very good.
Rice tofu is a local snack in the Wuling Mountains of Sichuan, Chongqing, Hubei, Hunan, and Guizhou. It is washed and soaked with rice, ground into rice milk, then boiled with alkali, cooled, and formed into a block of "tofu".
It can be used as non-staple food, made into cold cakes, cold shrimp and other foods, and can also be used as stir-fry.
Guizhou is mostly used for stir-frying, and it is also a relatively famous dish here, so Ye Kai ordered this dish as soon as he came to Guizhou, to taste the difference from the previous ones.
Seeing that Luo Zhengyang ate first, Ye Kai asked, "How is it? Is it delicious?"
"The taste is quite strange...but the taste is not bad, what is this?" Luo Zhengyang asked, and then took a little more with a spoon and put it in his bowl.
"Rice tofu." Ye Kai replied.
It seems that this young man has never eaten this kind of food. It is a pity. After studying abroad for so many years, I don’t know how much Chinese food he has missed.
Ye Kai turned on the navigation, found the location of the well-located factory, and said, "Is the road from here easy to walk? How about we go and have a look after dinner?"
"Don't..." Luo Zhengyang swallowed the food in his mouth and said, "Don't think so, we can go tomorrow, how bad is the road here... We have to be steady when driving off-road."
The navigation said it would take an hour in the past, but Luo Zhengyang said that there was no place to live there, so it would take three hours to go back and forth.
Looking at the sky, it would be dark in an hour at most, so Ye Kai didn't say anything about going to see it, and went back to the guest house to rest after eating.
This town seems to be just this one street.
The guest house has a total of three floors, and behind it is the parking lot of the guest house, which is quite large and rectangular, like a slightly larger basketball court.
In fact, if you look carefully from upstairs, you can still see traces of the two-point line and three-point line of the basketball court on the ground.
Across the parking lot is a short vegetable garden, and further away is a small river, which flows along the direction of the street. If you have a good eye, you can see a bridge in the distance.
The choice of cities is often inseparable from water, both at home and abroad.
In the range where great rivers pass, if there is a place with flat terrain, there will generally be a big city.It is rare to see a city without a river.
At least in the cities Ye Kai has been to, no.
There are more towns and villages beside the small streams, but now because the cities are getting bigger and bigger, the rivers cannot be seen in some places.If you go back a hundred years, rivers are often in the center of cities.
Stayed here for one night.
Early the next morning, Ye Kai was woken up by Luo Zhengyang.
According to Ye Kai's work and rest schedule, if he is not in a hurry, getting up at nine in the morning is considered very early.
Unless it is an unexpected situation such as catching a plane or grabbing tickets for a scenic spot, Ye Kai's mobile phone alarm clock is usually nine o'clock.But Luo Zhengyang was different, he had just graduated.
He also doesn't like to stay up late to watch TV and read online articles, and still controls his work and rest according to the school schedule, so he gets up at six or seven o'clock and waits for Ye Kai until eight o'clock.
Seeing that Ye Kai still didn't come to find him, he took the initiative to knock on the door.
Ye Kai was particularly annoyed by someone waking him up while he was sleeping, so he rubbed his hair and shouted outside: "Wait a minute, I'll change my clothes and come to you."
"Oh, good brother Ye, hurry up."
"Hey……"
I got up and washed my hair again, and found a white shirt and black peaked cap from the suitcase.
When going out, Ye Kai found that the world outside the door was colored with water, that is, the color formed after the house was soaked by rain.It must have rained last night when Ye Kai was sleeping deeply.
The rain came just in time, making the weather outside the house much cooler.
They called Luo Zhengyang, and the two drove towards the marked point. After driving for about an hour, the road really became as difficult as Luo Zhengyang said.
This is not a provincial or county road, because there is no sign on the road. Once such a road is damaged, it can be repaired within a year, which means that the leadership team is quick.
There are many collapses and cracks on the cement road. Naturally, large trucks passing by are not afraid of such a road. They can pass safely by slowing down, while ordinary vehicles need to find their way slowly.
Two hours later, it's here.
This is a mountain village by the side of the road. There are mountains on one side of the road and cliffs on the other. It seems that this place is on the mountainside of a big mountain.
To the right is the cliff. There is a mountain road going down the mountain. At the end of this mountain road is a village.
The factory they want to see is actually a red brick house with the name of the pig farm on the outside, but there is no smell of the pig farm.
Ye Kai nodded towards Luo Zhengyang, and said in a low voice: "There is a problem, I will turn around first, you go and light the car and wait for me."
This house has been used by people recently, not to mention new, but it is still very clean. Secondly, Ye Kai did not smell the stench that only pig farms have.
Let alone a pig farm, it is an ordinary person who raises a pig in his home, and the surroundings of the pigsty are smelly.
You can't teach a pig not to defecate anywhere.
Ye Kai didn't dare to bring a camera, but he kept his mobile phone in recording mode all the time, ready to run away at any time.You never know when someone will come chasing you with a hoe.
There is also a forest behind the house, but a water tank has been built, so it is one meter away from the mountain. Ye Kai didn't go inside, but just stood on the side of the house and took a look.
The water in the sink has no smell, mostly rainwater from last night.
There are many cobwebs where the house connects to the mountain. It seems that no one has walked behind the house since it was repaired.Also, who would go to such a place?
Finding nothing, Ye Kai circled back to the front again.
The gate is an iron gate, which is locked with an iron chain. A layer of dust has accumulated on the door, and the 'Honghe Village Five-Star Pig Farm' on both sides is also covered with a layer of dust, and a finger is completely black.
Ye Kai has never studied criminal investigation, so he can't guess how long the place has been left unattended.
Looking at the car, Ye Kai took the locked iron chain and knocked on the door, knocking off a layer of dust, but still didn't get a response.
When walking to the car, Ye Kai took off his hat, shook the dust on it, knocked on the window of the driver's cab, and asked, "Who was the boss here when you came last time? Does anyone around know the boss here? "
