    Xie Xingchen's seasoning skills are very good. The sweet potato chips are salty and only slightly spicy. They are small snacks that children can eat.

    Xie Xingchen doesn't know if it has captured Ludwig's heart, but it has definitely captured little Randy's heart.

    After eating a piece of potato chips to taste, Little Randy was hungry.

    He blinked his cat's eyes and looked pitifully at Xie Xingchen... the potato chips next to him.

    Don't let the children be greedy for the New Year's Eve.

    Xie Xingchen had no choice but to bring a bowl from the small kitchen, and then filled a small bowl with seven or eight potato chips and handed it over.

    Xie Xingchen bent down, touched little Randy's head, and said softly: "You can only eat so much, and you have to drink a cup of chrysanthemum tea after eating, is that okay?"

    Potato chips fresh out of the pan are the tastiest, but they are also the most steaming. Xie Xingchen dare not feed his children too much.

    Little Randy took it excitedly, nodded vigorously and said in a milky voice: "Koyi."

    Very good, can see that he is excited, and even his words have become unclear.

    [Wooooow, I also want to be patted by Boss Xie, and I also want to eat potato chips fried by Boss Xie and Fa Cai!】

    [The previous you forgot one thing, that is - sweet potato strips!Compared with potato chips, I actually want to eat sweet potato sticks. Boss Xie said that sweet potato sticks should be dipped in tomato sauce. I love the taste of tomatoes so much. I beg Boss Xie to open a restaurant!】

    Although fried food looks unhealthy, it can always easily arouse the gluttons in everyone's stomach.

    It's okay when no one is eating, and everyone can bear it, but once there is a child squatting next to him who is eating with gusto, it is really unbearable.

    Some people want to learn how to make potato chips and sweet potato sticks from Xie Xingchen, but everyone is so powerless that they can't even find the ingredients, so what are they doing?!

    Looking at the blank search page on Xingwang Mall, everyone burst into tears.

    ...

    "Luther, do you eat?"

    Fill another big bowl with potato chips, Xie Xingchen tilted his head and asked.

    If Ludwig doesn't eat it, he eats it himself.

    Ludwig nodded, and naturally took the big bowl in his hand.

    Under the envious eyes of his younger brother, he held the bowl contentedly and stood in the yard slowly tasting the delicious food.

    It's just that the attitude of the whole body is a bit too incompatible with this atmosphere.

    Well, how should say it?

    At this moment, Ludwig has the feeling of being in the scene that Xie Xingchen saw before, "the foreign son-in-law is wearing a neat three-piece suit and eating in the countryside surrounded by crowds".

    Thinking of this, his eyes flickered, and then he couldn't help but burst out laughing.

    After observing that Ludwig and Little Randy looked at him with concern, Xie Xingchen held back his smile and continued to work in front of the frying pan.

    At this moment, the minced meat of Fu Gui and Chang Shou has been chopped.

    This is the top-quality pork that Xie Xingchen snapped up from the system—more than 50 catties of fat and thin pork foreleg and pork plum.

    A fat pig has all kinds of meat, only these two kinds of meat are the most suitable for making meatballs, so after Xie Xingchen saw the system selling meat two days ago, he bought it without stopping, and then he kept putting the meat in the system to keep it freshThe mail office does not pick it up. Sure enough, the meat was very fresh when picked it up this morning, like a freshly slaughtered pig.

    Suffering from the materials, Xie Xingchen had never fried meatballs in front of Fa Cai, Fu Gui and Chang Shou.

    Today is his first croquette, and it is also his first time teaching croquette, so he teaches very seriously.

    It can be seen that Xie Xingchen not only hopes to teach the three of Fa Fu Gui Chang Shou, but also tries to teach these netizens who watch the live broadcast.

    Xie Xingchen washed his hands carefully, and then said to the camera: "The delicacy we are going to make later is croquettes. The first preparation work for croquettes is to chop the meat. Now that the meat has been chopped, I won't repeat it.I'm going to start seasoning now."

    Xie Xingchen said while pouring the minced meat into a super large basin, then he poured a lot of salt, pepper powder, white pepper and other seasonings into it, and then grabbed the minced meat vigorously to mix the seasoning evenly.

    After grasping the seasoning, Xie Xingchen began to wash his hands, then took out a clean pot, and added an appropriate amount of water and spices into the pot: "The seasoning for fried meatballs is also the key point. In order to make the meatballs more fragrant, remember to add water when boiling the water.Put the appropriate amount of chopped green onion, shredded ginger, pepper star anise and other spices on hand, and after the water is boiled, we filter out these spices, leave the water to cool, and then proceed to the next step.”

    Because there are a lot of meat fillings, relatively more water is needed, but the weather is very good, and the spice water can be cooled by just drying it.

    Add an appropriate amount of sweet potato starch into the cooled material water, stir it into batter and pour it into the meat filling, mix the batter and meat filling evenly, then add an appropriate amount of cooking oil, and finally make the meat filling into a sticky state.

    Xie Xingchen did it while explaining. He didn't repeat it. After all, the method of catching a partner is very simple. He believes that as long as it is a life form with normal intelligence, he can complete it.

    As for the key seasoning?Xie Xingchen didn't say much, because he couldn't give a standard amount.

    This is the case with Chinese food. Many seasonings are added by the cook according to his feeling, so everyone's taste is different.

    If someone is confused about "appropriate amount", "a little", and "feeling", then Xie Xingchen is... helpless.

    After the meat stuffing is mixed evenly, you can heat the oil pan.

    Generally speaking, if you want to make croquettes delicious, you have to fry them twice.

    The first time it is almost cooked, and then the second time, so that it can be crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.

    There was still a lot of oil left in the pot, so Xie Xingchen didn't get any new oil.

    Turn on the fire, heat the oil to about 50% hot, then Xie Xingchen turned to medium heat, and then began his moment of showing off his skills!

    I saw Xie Xingchen quickly grabbed a handful of minced meat in the basin, then squeezed it out into a ball shape with a tiger's mouth, then peeled it off with a spoon, and put it straight into the oil pan.

    The swish, swish, swish movements were very rhythmic, and the parabolic balls kept flying from his hand into the oil pan, but the splashed oil did not hit Xie Xingchen.

    This is a master, really a master!

    The people who were busy nearby couldn't help but ran over to watch again.

    When Xie Xingchen put down the spoon, everyone applauded violently.

    Xie Xingchen came back to his senses, dumbfounded and said with a little embarrassment: "Stop applauding, I'm going to be embarrassed, this is not a skill."

    Xie Xingchen said embarrassment in his mouth, but he was also a little embarrassed in his heart.

    He pursed his lips in embarrassment, and then forced himself to divert his attention.

    Picking up a large colander, Xie Xingchen scooped up those slightly golden balls from the oil pan quickly. He scooped them up and put them aside, and then opened the other pan that had been fried sweet potato chips and sweet potato chips., When the oil temperature is 70% hot, fry these balls again.

    At this time, the skin of the fried meatballs is crispy, and the mouth is full of fragrance after a bite. It looks very delicious.

    Xie Xingchen picked up the plate and said, "Everyone, come and have a taste?"

    Now that he said so, everyone was impolite.

    One or two are not afraid of the heat, they eat meatballs with bare hands, even Little Randy who finished eating potato chips is no exception, relying on his own small bowl and small spoon, relying on his low altitude, he can snort when adults block himHum Chi put meatballs in his own small bowl.

    He didn't stop until the small bowl couldn't fit.

    Xie Xingchen, who caught sight of little Randy's movements from the corner of his eye, called out "good guy"!

    Fortunately, the small bowl he took out was really small!

    Even if Randy filled the small bowl with four or five fried meatballs, otherwise he was really afraid that the kid would get angry.

    ...

    Because of the need to control the oil temperature and the maturity of the balls, Xie Xingchen did not dare to put too many balls into the oil pan at once, so there is still a lot of meat stuffing in the big pot.

    After the teaching, the clever Fa Cai said that he had roughly learned it, so Xie Xingchen immediately gave Fa Cai the important task of frying the meatballs for the second time.

    At that moment, Xie Xingchen fried the meatballs for the first time, and then Fugui fished the meatballs from his frying pan, and asked Fa Cai to fry the meatballs for the second time, and at the same time asked Chang Shou to help Fa Cai fish the meatballs.

    In this way, an operation chain of croquettes is established, and the efficiency of croquettes also increases.

    In less than an hour, Xie Xingchen's large pot of minced meat was gone, replaced by pots of golden croquettes.

    Seeing that there was still a little oil in the pot, Xie Xingchen didn't want to waste too much.

    So adhering to the idea that everything can be fried, he made fried milk and fried tofu for everyone by the way.

    Fried tofu is okay, but fried milk really caught everyone's attention!

    As soon as the milk came out of the pot, everyone screamed in fright.

    The audience in the live broadcast room even thought that the milk would go into the fryer, but they didn't expect it to be fried by him.

    Everyone:?

    [Mist Grass!I feel like a rare fool at the moment!】

    [Fried milk is okay?I'm convinced, I'm really convinced, thank you boss for being so awesome [Shocked my mother.jpg]]

    Everyone stared dumbfounded at Xie Xingchen saying "everything can be blown up", and his action really made everyone think that everything can be blown up.

    For the first time, they felt the horror of "doing what they say" from the bottom of their hearts!

    What's even more frightening is that Boss Xie is still frugal. He poured out the remaining oil, but he actually used it to make household soap?He also said that it can be used to wash dishes and clothes in the future, so as to be environmentally friendly and not waste?

    I have to say that his environmental protection behavior appealed to many passers-by, and successfully made his passers-by even better!

    ...

    Time always flies by so fast.

    Before knew it, it was time to download again.

    Tomorrow is New Year's Eve, and when New Year's Eve comes, the New Year will come.

    At this time in previous years, every family has been reunited. The adults sit in the living room and chat, while the children play in groups.

    At a glance, the lights of Wanjia are filled with festive red, and everything at home and on the street seems to change from old to new overnight.

    "What are you looking at?"

    Following Xie Xingchen's line of sight, Ludwig saw the red lantern they had just hung up.

    The two red lanterns look atmospheric and festive. Hanging under the eaves seems a bit weird at first glance, but after a long time, it seems that it seems to be where it should be.

    Ludwig took a serious look at the red lanterns for a while, but since he had never lived in a modern society, he couldn't understand what it means to "think about people when seeing things" and "thinking about relatives every festive season".

    Sensing the sudden depression of the person in front of him, Ludwig didn't say much, he just stayed where he was quietly.

    After a long time, when everyone who had gone out to play came back, Xie Xingchen returned to the house. Before closing the door, he said to Ludwig with squinted eyes: "Thank you, Luther."

    This thank you is all thanks without words.

    Thinking by day and dreaming by night.

    Tonight, Xie Xingchen suddenly dreamed that when he was very young, the faces of his parents were already blurred in the dream, but the little silver longevity lock they gave him was extremely clear.

    When he woke up, he had forgotten what happened in the dream, but most of those things were happy, because he felt very relaxed after waking up.

    The next day, New Year's Eve arrived.

    Before getting out of bed, Xie Xingchen opened the Xingwang Mall and found an energy coin exchange shop. He exchanged a lot of energy coins and planned to use them to make red envelopes.

    Energy coins, also known as "Star Alliance coins", are the physical currency used by the Star Alliance. It is very special because it contains energy that can be absorbed by living organisms, so it cannot be counterfeited.

    But these energy contents are very small, not equal to its face value, coupled with troublesome carrying, inconvenient use, etc., few people use it, and it is not as convenient as virtual currency. Judging from the current situation, only super backward areas will use it in large quantitiesEnergy coins.

    The original owner was born on a developed planet since he was a child. He knew about energy coins but had never used them. Xie Xingchen didn't know anything about them.The reason why knew it was because wanted to pack lucky money, so dug out this memory about energy coins from the depths of the original owner's memory.

    It's Chinese New Year, you have to give your children lucky money!

    Giving New Year's money is not suitable for transferring money with light brains, and energy coins are better.

    After choosing immediate delivery, Xie Xingchen suddenly remembered something after turning off the optical brain.

    Xie Xingchen: "Xiaomo, how long will it take for the live broadcast of my mission?"

    [Ding dong, the system reminds me that there is 04:02:08 left in the remaining live broadcast time of the "Happy New Year" task.】

    There are still more than 4 hours of live broadcast time. At this time, whether it is long or short is not short.

    Xie Xingchen suddenly asked again: "Xiaomo, is the deadline for this hidden mission the fifteenth day of the first lunar month?"

    According to the literal meaning, "to celebrate the new year", the fifteenth day of the first month is still a year, and only after the fifteenth day of the first month is the end of the year.

    If the system calculates according to this cut-off time, then he doesn’t need to start the live broadcast in the past few days. He will start the broadcast on the 15th day of the first lunar month, and then go to Xingwang Mall to rent a large square to hold the Lantern Festival event.

    [Ding dong, the system reminds me that the end time of the hidden mission "Happy New Year" is 23:59:59 on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.】

    really

    The fifteenth day of the first lunar month is the end of the task!

    That being the case—

    Xie Xingchen suddenly smiled.

    He first gave a generous year-end bonus to two employees of his Department of Design.

    The moment they received the year-end award, both of them were surprised at the same time.

    Before they could take the initiative to contact Xie Xingchen, they suddenly received a request from their boss for a "lantern festival event planning case".

    According to the requirements of the boss, the venue of this event named "Lantern Festival" is Xingwang Shopping Mall. The venue needs to be arranged by them. The venue is required to contain ancient Chinese architectural elements, and there must be lanterns, candles, lantern riddles, etc.Some games in the Children's Corner of the Earth Firm are also needed. The most important thing is that Boss Xie asked to update the virtual Hanfu for everyone to experience during the Lantern Festival event.

    this……

    Ivy and Zhang Yu looked at each other, feeling dizzy.

    It is true that this event planning is very interesting, more interesting than any event they have seen, but fun means strangeness. There are too many strange elements in this event planning, and there are only two of them, and the boss only gave them 16 days.I'm afraid it's too late.

    As if thinking of their embarrassment, Xie Xingchen said generously: "I will approve the funds for you, no matter how much money you have, you can go outside to find a designer with strong personality and skills to help, no title or professional, as long as the TA has excellentHands-on ability and design ability."

    Hearing this, the two immediately felt relieved.

    However, Xie Xingchen's next sentence made them more confident!

    Xie Xingchen: "During the work period, if there is a designer who performs well, after an interview, he can be admitted to the Department of Design of the Earth Firm."

    Ivy:!

    Zhang Yu:!

    The two were overjoyed.

    Because they all have acquaintances and friends who work in this industry.

    They envy them, and they also want to help them.

    Therefore, they who are already full of confidence have added invincible mobility.

    Ai Wei ran to Zhang Yu's house. After Zhang Yu opened the door, the two began to discuss who to invite to participate in the event planning.

    Because she made a lot of money, and because she was grateful to Zhang Yu for wanting to get close to Zhang Yu, after inspecting Zhang Yu's family environment is good, Ivy went to Zhang Yu's apartment building to buy a house. Fortunately, she bought the same floor as Zhang Yu.

    So even though she works at home, Ivy often goes to Zhang Yu's home to discuss with Zhang Yu face to face.

    Today was no exception. The two entered Zhang Yu's studio and began to discuss the list of invited designers.

    Focusing on Ivy who has a wide network of contacts, Zhang Yu added a few famous painters, master handicraftsmen, and designers who she chatted well on StarNet to the list.

    When a long list of more than 15 people was given to Xie Xingchen, Xie Xingchen was surprised to find that he knew many people on the list.

    So, do his employees have such a wide network of contacts?

    Xie Xingchen was amazed.

    But he had seen the works of these people and recognized their abilities, so he didn't say anything, and directly transferred the activity funds and the money for hiring people.

    Cough cough, so what... Anyway, the patents of the works designed by these people based on his ideas belong to the earth, so he is not afraid of more designers, and contribute to the earth!

    But he will definitely pay enough for the design fee!

    Out of a sum of money, but boundless happiness.

    When Xie Xingchen got out of bed to pick up the courier, the corners of his eyes and brows were smiling.

    After opening the courier, he got the energy coins.

    With just one glance, Xie Xingchen was amazed.

    Energy coins are beautiful.

    Its faint blue luster is like a beautiful night sky, and the scattered energy points on the coins are like stars.

    Compared with the nickname "Energy Coin", Xie Xingchen thinks it is more suitable for the romantic name "Star Coin".

    According to the standard of the Star Alliance, the higher the denomination, the more "stars" there are on the energy coin, which means that its energy is higher, but according to Xie Xingchen's aesthetics, the beauty of this energy coin does not increase with the increase of its denomination.

    On the contrary, energy coins with medium denominations of 5,000 star coins and 10,000 star coins are the most beautiful!

    Below 5,000 star coins, the "stars" in the "starry sky" are too few to perfectly show the beauty of the starry sky, while the "stars" in the "starry sky" of energy coins higher than 10,000 star coins are too dense to seePeople are dazzled and lose the charm of blank space.

    For the sake of the beautiful "starry sky", Xie Xingchen resolutely discarded energy coins of other denominations, and chose 5,000 star coins and 10,000 star coins for all of them.

    Stuffing these energy coins into the red envelopes that had been customized before, Xie Xingchen patted the cloth bag containing the red envelopes with satisfaction.

    Very good, the most important equipment for the New Year is complete!

    Xie Xingchen was finally relieved.

    He walked out of the bedroom with ease.

    Because everyone was driven by Xie Xingchen to visit Chang'an City, it was quiet outside the bedroom.

    Turning around in Xie's house, apart from himself, Chang Shou was no longer rich and honored. Xie Xingchen thought about it, stepped on the hoverboard, and headed for Chang'an City.

    ...

    Today's Chang'an City is very different from the past.

    As the Chinese New Year approaches, Chang'an City takes on a new look.

    Thanks to Xie Xingchen's banknote ability, every household has hung up red lanterns. From a distance, it is a sea of joy, and you can feel the festive atmosphere from a close look.

    There are couplets written in red paper and ink on the wooden doors of every household, but these couplets were not written by Xie Xingchen, but the result of Xie Xingchen asking the system for help through the banknote ability.

    As for why he didn't arrange Xie's house together?

    Xie Xingchen: Smile.jpg

    You have to do it yourself to have a new year.

    If it wasn't for the fact that Chang'an City was too big, and he couldn't do it with the robot to death, he might even have packed Chang'an City together.

    Xie Xingchen wandered around aimlessly in Chang'an City.

    But this is fate, in a remote alley, Xie Xingchen passing by suddenly found Ludwig and Little Randy.

    Little Randy has already gotten off the hoverboard, and he is standing on tiptoe curiously looking at the wall of a certain house, his eyes full of eagerness to try.

    Seeing this, Xie Xingchen stopped the hoverboard.

    He looked at the wall curiously, but saw nothing.

    Xie Xingchen shouted: "Luther, little Randy, what are you two doing here?"

    The two brothers looked over reflexively after hearing Xie Xingchen's voice.

    Before Ludwig had time to say anything, little Randy flew into Xie Xingchen's arms, then pointed to the wall and said to Xie Xingchen in a childlike voice: "Brother Xingchen, cats, there are cats inside."

    Xie Xingchen raised his eyebrows and said in surprise, "Cat?"

    There are cats in Chang'an City?

    Xie Xingchen has never seen it before!

    Upon hearing this, Little Randy nodded childishly, and then described it more seriously: "It's a black cat."

    Xie Xingchen was even more surprised: "Black cat?"

    Xie Xingchen became interested immediately.

    You must know that black cats are not common, and most of the characters of black cats are cool, and they also have their own invisible skills.

    Xie Xingchen likes black cats very much. After hearing that there are black cats here, he couldn't help but said, "Why don't we go in and have a look!"

    It is so arrogant!

    Anyway, the entire Chang'an City is his, and he can enter whenever he wants.

    Little Randy nodded desperately.

    However, just as Xie Xingchen was eager to enter the door, the black cat suddenly jumped onto the fence and walked slowly from the fence.

    Its long and slender tail constantly swayed and swayed leisurely. It was so cold that it didn't even look at the two-legged beasts below. It just jumped from one fence to another with graceful catwalks, and then ran all the way back to the palace..

    Xie Xingchen:?

    Feelings Is this still a Forbidden City cat?

    Or is it the imperial concubine's cat?

    Seeing him shrinking into a hole in the city wall with his own eyes, Xie Xingchen suddenly fell silent.

    Um, it shouldn't be a concubine cat, right?

    How could the concubine cat take over the hole in the city wall!

    This should be a pure Forbidden City cat.

    With this situation, Xie Xingchen couldn't help but said to the system in his heart: "Little devil, it's you."

    This time it was the system's turn to fail.

    The system was silent, and Xie Xingchen continued: "Xiaomo, there should be other cats here, right?"

    Although this "Forbidden City" is not the Forbidden City, they are all imperial palaces, so can cats be the same?

    He is not greedy, just give him some big oranges and three flowers!

    Forbidden City cat!

    Once upon a time, he also knelt and licked the royal cat on the Internet, and now he also has a royal cat.

    Ahhhhhh, this is really the best gift he has received this year.

    Thanks to the system, thanks to Chang'an City!

    He has a cat, he has a royal cat.

    Xie Xingchen's eyes were sparkling, and his smile was even more brilliant.

    Like Little Randy, he squatted on the ground and stared at the holes in the city wall where cats would grow.

    When the little black cat came out, he cheered with little Randy.

    When a strange cat appeared in a certain hole, his eyes widened like little Randy, and he stared at the timid and cute creature who was poking around without blinking.

    The two "children" squatted for an unknown amount of time, until their legs became numb and Xie Xingchen took out the small bench, but refused to leave anyway.

    Ludwig stood aside, looking down at Xie Xingchen who was as happy as a child.

    Afterwards, when his gaze shifted to the group of little creatures Xie Xingchen called "Forbidden City Cats" and "Royal Cats" in the city wall, he couldn't help but soften a lot.

    "Wow, little Randy, there's a big orange over there, see? There's a big orange in the little hole on the left!"

    "Ah! It really looks like Papa! It's as fat and timid as Papa, and it's also cowardly, hahahahaha..."
