    Chapter 74 State Banquet (2)

    At eight o'clock in the evening, the banquet hall of the palace was finally filled with people. The visitors from the Federation entered the banquet hall with His Majesty at the last moment. After both parties were seated, the ceremony and music performances began according to the rules, and then the meals were served one after another. point, but the visitor from the Federation directly waved his hand and refused.

    "Your Majesty the Empire, you don't need to be so polite. Those rants are the same everywhere. I think it's more realistic to serve the food quickly. I have been admiring the Chinese dishes of the Empire for a long time, but I don't know if Your Majesty has invited them. The long-established Mr. Ye is cooking." The speaker was the next heir of the Federation, a sturdy man with high eyebrows, deep eyes and blond hair. This visit to the Empire was his proposal. It is said that His Majesty of the Federation is in poor health. It was this person who made this visit to add to his political achievements.

    And Brown finished speaking. Chais didn't notice at all, the diplomat who was sitting next to him and accompanying him on the visit suddenly changed his face when he heard what he said.

    His Majesty, who was sitting in the first place, looked at Brown with a look of anticipation. Chais, and the diplomat who was sitting next to him in charge of the previous negotiations, suddenly understood why the Federation had sent someone for a friendly visit after the friction with the Empire. This Brown. Chais is obviously a not very smart master, and he was probably sent to die. As for the identity of the heir, it is estimated that it is also a pretense, but he does not know what the Federation is doing in private.

    His Majesty smiled in a good-natured manner and said: "Okay, Your Excellency Chais is really informal." Then he called the palace servant who was standing by the side to give a few words, and then said: "Then please, Your Excellency Chais, wait for a while, I will order people to pass the dishes."

    At the same time as His Majesty's voice fell, someone also came up and took down all the instruments and performers in the hall, and the officers and adults who were sitting next to him looked at Brown, who was obviously mindless. There was obvious sarcasm in Chaise's eyes, and the netizens in the live broadcast room were also speechless.

    [This Chaise is a little too arrogant, even if the empire agreed to invite Ye Jin to make the dinner party, but he did not follow the process at all, did not respect the etiquette culture of the empire at all, and was too unpleasant . 】

    [That's right, I don't feel respectful at all. Those performers have already come to the stage. Why did he say that? Even if the comer is a guest, isn't there a saying that you can do whatever you want? It's really rude, but our Majesty is good-natured. 】

    [If this is the heir of the federation, it is estimated that the federation is over. From this point of view, it is the master who speaks and does things in his head. If the diplomatic relations between the two countries do not want to see you on other people’s territory, you must pay attention to your words. Impatient face, what do you think? 】

    [Don't say it, don't say it, I don't want to look at him at all, the face of the person sitting next to him has changed, and I don't know how the Federation thought to send such a person. 】

    [I don't want to see him +1, I want to see Xiao Jin in the kitchen, I don't know what he has to do now, after all, he has advanced the meal process. 】

    The official live broadcast room of the empire was covered by numerous bullet screens. In addition to the speeches of the above-mentioned netizens of the empire, even the netizens of the federation also touched it, and they all felt ashamed when they saw the actions of their heirs.

    Netizens said they wanted to see the kitchen, but they did not respond during the broadcast. They were still taking pictures of the banquet hall. After a while, a row of palace servants in tuxedos came up in the banquet hall. The trays are covered with opaque covers so that you can't see what's inside.

    On the kitchen side, Ye Jin was preparing the dishes to be used at the banquet in an orderly manner. In the 21st century, Ye Jin learned from an old master, preparing the more difficult and time-consuming dishes from the morning. Yes, it's ready to use at night.

    However, considering that the incident happened suddenly and there was no time to prepare, Ye Jin planned to eliminate the cold dishes and meat that took a long time, and discussed with Mr. Ye to replace them with new dishes. He was busy until 6 o'clock in the afternoon and only a few of Ye Jin had time to make them. The food that ordered padded stomach, and the old man Ye was a little bit older, but he couldn't stand the intensity of this dish. In the end, he only gave instructions to a few apprentices, and by the way, he called a few juniors of the Ye family. breathed.

    It's just that Ye Jin didn't relax for a while, when news came from the banquet hall that the serving time was earlier, a full hour earlier, which made Ye Jin, who had just taken a breath, get busy immediately.

    Ye Jin quickly divided the prepared cold dishes into sixteen small portions and placed them on the tray to cover them, and then said to Yu Nian and Yan Li, who had been watching the fire and cutting vegetables, "You don't need to watch the fire of Buddha jumping over the wall for now. The time for the dishes is ahead of schedule, you should go and arrange all the cold dishes that you will be using, as I taught you before, there are a total of eight cold dishes divided into 16 small portions, remember."

    After I finished speaking, I turned around and went to prepare a few other big dishes. The dishes at the state banquet are not too ugly and save face. In the 21st century China, there should not be too many dishes. Although 108 dishes cannot be completely served on the table, they will be served. Half of it can still be done. Of course, there are many dishes that are not available for the time being. Ye Jin can only find a way to avoid or change the ingredients.

    After Ye Jin was busy with all the cold dishes, he started to prepare the first appetizer soup. However, due to the lack of ingredients, Ye Jin could only think of a way by himself. It was originally a soup made of fragrant snail. Ye Jin could only make a seafood soup with shrimp meat.

    The people in the banquet hall who were waiting for the dishes to be served showed their expectant expressions when they saw the trays held by the palace people. Even the audience in the live broadcast room were looking forward to and excitedly waiting for the real face of the dishes.

    After the palace servants placed the exquisite and gorgeous cold dishes in order, the expectant federal people opened their eyes wide and watched. For a while, they didn't know what to do. They only saw in the small porcelain plate in front of them. There is a blooming fiery red flower, and there is a green leaf support next to it, and the whole flower looks lifelike as if it were real.

    Even His Majesty the Empire, who was sitting at the top, looked at the exquisite and gorgeous dishes on the plate in front of him, and didn't know where to start. The palace servant who was standing beside whispered something to eat the petals, and then picked up the tableware beside him. Start your meal.

    The audience in the live broadcast room, when they saw the dishes opened, put a shocking exclamation mark on the barrage, until the camera swept to His Majesty the Empire began to eat, and then someone sent a barrage.

    [I can't imagine that this is really a dish instead of a flower, this is too realistic, it looks no different from a real flower! 】

    [If I hadn't seen His Majesty start eating, I wouldn't have believed that this was a dish. People who didn't watch the Federation were still staring at the dishes on the plate. 】

    [Woo woo woo I also really want to taste the taste of this dish! I don't know what it tastes like, but it should be delicious if it looks so good. 】

    The audience in the live broadcast room was admiring the beauty of the dishes, and everyone in the hall, including His Majesty who had already started to eat them, were admiring the beauty of the dishes, but also the taste of the dishes, if not for the sake of maintaining their manners , The big guys here can't wait to pick up the plate and slap it in their mouths.

    And the Commonwealth who sits in the lower right hand comes to make Brown. Chais, on the other hand, took all the petals and green leaves on the plate into his mouth without caring about the image, and even picked up the plate and sent it to his mouth, doing what most people want to do but can't do it. , after putting it down again, the plate became clean and there was not even a leaf of vegetables. The diplomat who was sitting with him twitched at the corners of his mouth. Even the emperor, who just thought Chais was not very smart, looked at his A smile appeared on his face because of his actions, but he felt that this kind of temperament to do whatever he thought of was quite straightforward.

    Even the audience in the live broadcast room were out of breath when they saw Chais's actions, but after laughing, they all wanted to taste the deliciousness of the dishes.

    When Chais put down the plate, he looked at the table where no new dishes had been served, and then looked at the plates of others that only had half of the petals moved, and asked anxiously, "Your Majesty, why are the rest of the dishes still on the table? If you didn't come up, the speed is too slow, so quickly send someone to urge you."

    His Majesty looked at Chais, who was a little anxious, and glanced at his plate with some amusing, and then asked someone to remind him, because he was also curious about what the next dishes would be like. The first dish was So delicious, what kind of delicacies will come next.

    Ye Jin put the seafood soup on the tray with a small soup cup, and was quickly taken out by the palace servants who urged the dishes. After that, Ye Jin made a lobster with lobster. In order to make it easier for everyone to eat, Ye Jin also put The shrimp meat and shrimp shells were separated, and then the apprentices began to arrange the plates on a large plate.

    Ye Jin was busy cooking, but the banquet hall came to remind him from time to time, which made him a little upset. When he finally started to serve the big dishes, Ye Jin first served boiled cabbage and chicken. , duck, spare ribs, blanch the cabbage heart once and remove it, and season it with the broth cooked with chicken puree and pork puree. Finally, pour the broth into the dish and it is the boiled cabbage that looks like a lotus flower.

    And Ye Jin gave the squirrel mandarin fish to Yu Nian to cook. He learned this dish a long time ago, and now he can make it very proficiently, and the taste is comparable to what Ye Jin made.

    After Ye Jin's boiled cabbage was made, Mr. Ye, who was standing by and instructing Yu Nian and the others, showed a look of surprise and ecstasy on his face when he saw the finished cabbage.

    "Little Jin'er, you actually made this dish. I didn't expect it, ah, I didn't expect that the successful boiled cabbage actually looks like it was scalded with boiling water, and you can't see the use of broth and meat. Xiao Jin'er, can you teach grandpa this dish, if you can learn it, my old man will die without regrets!" As he spoke, he laughed loudly with rosy cheeks, as if it was a big happy event.

    The other people who were busy preparing dishes, especially the Ye family members, heard the movement and looked at Ye Jin, their eyes were full of excitement, just because the work in their hands could not stop. It's not good to get close to Ye Jin.

    Ye Jin looked at the old man Ye who was smiling and seemed full of energy, and nodded with a smile: "No problem, grandpa, I will teach you when I have time after the banquet is over. This is actually a tedious step. It's not difficult, but the difficulty lies in the ingredients and operations, so I can write a recipe for you to study when I go back."

    After listening to the old man Ye, he was happy and said three good things. The other people who had been paying attention to this side also asked and wanted to follow along. At work, even the feeling of backache and back pain all day today seems to be gone.

    Everyone in the kitchen was elated, and they even got to the end of their work for several degrees, while the banquet hall fell into silence after seeing the small portion of boiled cabbage on the table. Even the audience in the live broadcast room watched. The cabbage, which was posing in a shape, was flushed casually with boiling water in the bowl, and fell into silence.
