Chapter 136 Interview invitation

The clear soup was filled with tender tofu. Just looking at the appearance, Liu Yifei could never imagine that its taste would be so strong.

The masala and slightly spicy taste at the mouth made her really think she was eating Mapo tofu.

But there was no greasy and refreshing taste at all, but it reminded her that she was eating a portion of Mapo tofu in clear soup, which gave her a sense of dislocation between impression and reality.

Zhao Jinmai noticed her surprise and curiously scooped up a piece of tofu and put it into her mouth.

“Eh?”

She was also shocked by this misalignment of eyes and mouth.

"This really tastes like Mapo tofu!"

Zhao Jinmai was amazed, but was full of curiosity: "How did this be done?"

Another spoon reached over, and Wu Lei also tasted it and was immediately impressed.

"Wow! So enjoyable!"

After finishing a spoonful of food, he immediately scooped up another spoonful and put it into his mouth, exclaiming: "I can eat this dish as an indulgent meal. It tastes so good and is not greasy at all, it is simply perfect!"

“The peppercorn smells really fragrant.”

Liu Yifei was tasting the soup.

"I tasted it, too."

Wu Lei enjoyed it: "No wonder Brother Yi would rather ask the program team to send someone to buy it locally, not in the market. The peppercorn tastes very strong, but it is very fragrant and does not choke at all."

Hearing his words, Zhao Jinmai couldn't help but ask Li Yi: "Brother Yi, why do you buy this kind of peppercorns in the local area have so much more fragrant than ordinary peppercorns?"

“Because I bought fresh firsts.”

Li Yi patiently explained: "Whether it is pepper, star anise, or cumin, the fresher it is, the stronger the taste is.

Because the flavor substances in these seasonings will dissipate over time, fresh goods are often sold much more expensive than old goods.

However, in fresh goods, they are also divided into grades.

For example, after the peppers are ripe and harvested, the first batch of selected peppers are called first-class products, with very full grains, each pepper is fully opened, and there are no pepper seeds.

The best peppercorns are a few peppercorns growing on one petal, just like plum blossoms.

The second batch and the third batch of goods are slightly inferior in quality.

The peppercorns sold by many merchants on the market are not pure first-class products, and are more or less mixed.

Some sell first-class and inferior products, while others are mixed with aged pepper or soaked in water.

Some people also mix peppers that have extracted pepper oil from factories. The second is to mix pepper seeds and pepper branches into pepper to grind them into pepper noodles, which is cheaper.

So, I was afraid of trouble, so I just asked someone to go there and buy pure fresh goods to buy local products, so that I can't find it here and waste time."

After listening to his explanation, Zhao Jinmai seemed to have seen the other side of the world and sighed: "It turns out that there are so many ways to use the peppercorns."

"Of course, the seasoning line is still very deep."

While talking and joking, Huang Xiaoming had already calculated the cost.

After calculation, he was surprised to find that although the name and appearance of the dishes Li Yi cooked this time were very ordinary, the cost was not low at all, and it was even much higher than the cost of tofu banquets.

After sighing for a moment, he put away the booklet.

[Qingshu Mapo Tofu] There were only a few pieces left, and [dry stir-fried eggplant strips] were also eaten halfway.

If he doesn't eat it, he will really have nothing to eat.

We had to rush to eat before it was delicious. After a while, everyone wiped out all the dishes and rice.

There is too much work today, and Li Yi has no time to make staff meals. Therefore, they can only look at the few people in front of the camera and eat ordinary big lunches of three meat and two vegetable ones.

However, after they finished their meal, they could rest behind the camera, while Li Yi and others had to start working hard.

After packing the dishes and trays into the dishwasher, everyone started to work in the morning.

By the time the work was done, it was already late at night.

Master Li, who had been busy all day, uncovered the lid of the soup bucket that had been boiled for the whole day, and the bucket of water poured in the morning had turned into half a bucket of broth.

A bowl of broth that is so fragrant as it is the best comfort to everyone.

Unlike vegetarian soup, meat soup made with ingredients such as old hens, whole ducks, big bones, and ham cannot be refused by all meat lovers.

When Li Yi lifted the lid, the sound of amazement and swallowing saliva echoed in the entire restaurant.

The staff looked at the artist in front of the camera, envious and couldn't help but whisper.

"It smells so good! It's even more fragrant than vegetarian soup!"

“It must be delicious.”

"I really want to try it!"

"Don't think about it, this is the soup to try the dishes tomorrow. If so many of us try it, we won't have to finish it?"

"Drink with the artist! The performance of the show is important."

"I saw Meituan yesterday. There seemed to be a Cantonese soup near the hotel. I went back to the hotel and ordered a try."

Just when the staff thought that the soup could only smell the smell this time, Li Yi greeted them: "Come and help me get the smell, see what else is missing, I can adjust it."

Hearing Li Yi's greeting, the staff were stunned for a moment before reacting, cheering and rushed to Li Yi.

"Take it yourself! Be careful."

Li Yi helped them serve the soup and reminded: "Each person has only half a bowl, and if it is sprinkled, it will be gone."

"Thank you, Brother Yi!"

"Long live Brother Yi!"

The staff cheered happily.

Looking at the jubilant and bustling kitchen, the audience in the live broadcast room was also envious.

But what they are jealous of is not only the broth, but also the joyful atmosphere.

"It's so good! It feels like our company has a dinner together after work overtime, it's so fun."

"Brother Yi is really good. If it were other programs, how could the staff get such good soup?"

"Actually, after watching the live broadcast for a few days, I liked the family photo before the broadcast every day, and it felt very real."

"These later staff are also quite hard-working, thanks to Brother Yi still thinking about them!"

"I am willing to work overtime in such a program team, so happy!"

Wang Tian also came to the show and shared a bowl of soup.

Holding the soup and blew the heat, she said to Li Yi: "A reporter contacted me and wanted to interview you."

"What are you interviewing me?"

Li Yi was not interested in interviews.

"Do you still remember the manufacturer of yellow sprouts and cabbage you mentioned on the show yesterday?"

Wang Tian explained: "I arranged for someone to contact him, and then during the live broadcast today, he put his contact information on the public screen, but he sold it directly. Until the end of the year, all the production capacity was booked, and there are still many people looking for him to order.

The local media thinks this is a successful case of helping farmers, so they want to give me an exclusive interview."

Li Yi was a little surprised: "I just said that, are there so many people asking him to buy cabbage?"

"Do you think you have a small influence now?"

Wang Tian smiled and said, "You say something on the show, it's more effective than spending money on advertising on many TV stations!"

After learning the reason for the interview, Li Yi thought about it and refused again.

Helping farmers is a good thing. If it can help local farmers increase their income, it will be a merit.

However, this media is here to lobby him as the spokesperson for cabbage?
