rebirth from small pockets

Chapter 323 What’s your name, uncle~brother

The quality of the systematically improved yellow-feathered chickens has actually reached the level of the world's top broilers.

Even in Chen Li's opinion, the improved yellow-feather chicken is the best chicken in the world.

It's just that, after all, Chen Li has never seen those famous chickens on earth, so he doesn't dare to praise this Haikou directly.

Since Chen Li has embarked on the path of breeding, he naturally has some understanding of this area.

For example, a metal chicken worth as much as a supercar!

The strange thing about this kind of chicken is that in addition to its black feathers, black mouth, and black bones, even its internal organs and eggs are black!

In previous lives, it was said on the Internet that metal chicken contains trace elements and multiple vitamins, can synthesize a variety of amino acids that the human body cannot synthesize, has extremely low cholesterol, and has high nutritional value.

Chen Li actually doesn’t believe this statement!

In his opinion, the main reason why this chicken has become the ceiling among chickens is due to hype.

First of all, the breeding rate of metal chickens is very low, and the output is quite rare!

This is one of the conditions for hype!

Secondly, the appearance of the metal chicken is very "cool". Its black color is not pure black, but shiny black, giving it a metallic luster!

It is precisely because of this that people call it "metal chicken"!

And this is one of the conditions for hype!

Also~ This thing is believed by the locals that this kind of chicken can cure diseases, bring good luck, etc., so this kind of chicken is even used for sacrifices!

Although this kind of thing seems a bit nonsense to Chen Li, it can also be regarded as one of the conditions for speculation.

As a result, various factors combined, and finally metal chickens became the ceiling among chickens.

It is said that a rich man paid US$900,000 for a metal chicken!

So this kind of chicken has another name, called Lamborghini chicken.

Of course, something that can be given such a name, even a chicken, is beyond the reach of ordinary people!

As for China, it is not that there are no valuable chicken breeds.

Such as silky chicken!

This kind of chicken can also be called Wushan chicken according to its place of origin. At the same time, it also has a very famous name called Baifeng black-bone chicken!

Well, there is a very famous Chinese patent medicine called Wuji Baifeng Pill!

Therefore, the economic value of this silky chicken is quite high!

And it’s not just silky chickens. In fact, there are relatively rare chicken varieties in many places across the country, but they are difficult to promote and popularize.

So~actually, for the vast majority of Chinese people.

Native chicken~ is actually most people’s perception of a good chicken.

The local chickens here are not limited to the breed of chicken, but the way they are raised.

To put it bluntly, they are local chickens that have been fed naturally for a long time or combined with rough feeding, and have strong ability to forage and survive in the wild.

So~every place has its own native chicken.

In the early years, people didn't think there was anything wrong with it, but as some foreign chicken breeds that could be bred and cultivated quickly entered the country and gradually occupied a considerable market share.

Everyone suddenly discovered that the price of local chicken, which was originally nothing, had become a bit high without even realizing it.

Fortunately, in some rural areas, every household raises their own food, so it doesn't really matter whether the price is high or low.

But in the city, this feeling becomes obvious.

Of course, if the price is just a little more expensive, it actually doesn’t matter to people in the city.

The development of big cities is better, so there will naturally be more opportunities, and people will earn more.

So even if the price is a little higher, it’s not unacceptable.

But here comes the problem. Due to the breeding process and other reasons, the output of native chickens simply cannot meet the speed of people's consumption today.

But where the economic value is, naturally some people will be tempted.

Therefore, driven by the temptation of economic interests, some people began to have evil thoughts.

Those with a little more conscience will at most use ordinary feed chickens and sell them as native chickens.

The quality of this kind of chicken is better than that of cage-raised broilers, but it is worse than that of real native chickens.

Anyway, there aren't many people in the city who understand chickens, and few people can tell.

In fact, most of the chickens that many people in the city think of as native chickens are this kind of feed chickens.

Because of the feeding of feed, the breeding time of this kind of chicken is much shorter than that of native chickens.

But all in all, this is more conscientious. After all, there is nothing wrong with the chicken itself.

But there are some heartless ones, and that is hormone chicken.

It is also the breeding model of native chickens, but some hormones are added to the feed.

Chen Li wouldn't dare to eat this kind of chicken anyway.

Of course, I didn’t dare to go back, but Chen Li should have eaten it, but it must have been without knowing it.

After all, if you’re not an expert, you won’t be able to tell the difference between the chickens you buy at the vegetable market.

For ordinary people, most people can only tell the difference between native chicken and chicken after the chicken is cooked.

But it didn’t make any sense at that time!

But for a chef like Chef Gong, it is naturally different.

Last time, Chef Gong was in the Zhou family's refrigerator and found that the yellow-feather chicken sent by Chen Li was firm and authentic at first glance, so he put the newly bought ingredients by the kitchen aunt in the refrigerator and chose to use them.

I picked up the yellow-feathered chicken that had been frozen for more than ten days.

But even after being frozen in the refrigerator for more than ten days, the chicken soup stewed by the yellow-feathered chicken can be said to be fragrant all over the house.

Just this one moment made Chef Gong obsessed with this chicken.

After all, Chef Gong runs a private restaurant. Since it is a private restaurant, he naturally has very high requirements for the quality of the food.

It’s just that Zhou Bowen didn’t understand the origin of this chicken at that time, so it’s not until now that Chef Gong knew that this chicken was raised in Chen Li’s chicken farm.

Hmm~ Chen Li’s chicken farm.

Zhou Bowen had never talked to Chef Gong about Chen Li, so he didn’t know about Chen Li’s situation and thought that Chen Li’s family owned a chicken farm!

However, after Zhou Bowen's explanation, Chef Gong finally learned about Chen Li's situation, and then Chef Gong was shocked.

"No~ your fried chicken restaurant uses this chicken to make fried chicken?"

Chef Gong's eyes were wide open, and he looked a bit scary.

It's not surprising that he was surprised. In his opinion, the native chicken that Chen Li gave to the Zhou family was of better quality than the native chickens he had seen before.

Just that quality should be placed in the front court, maybe even send it to the palace!

But what did he hear now? Chen Li's chicken farm actually serves his own fried chicken restaurant.

Of course ~ this is naturally a misunderstanding by Chef Gong.

By the way~ By the way, Chef Gong actually doesn’t just mean that he is a chef.

In fact, this guy’s name is now Chef Gong!

Of course ~ his original name is not this, he was originally called Gong Wei. But in 1998, with the launch of Pfizer's Viagra, the translated name of this thing in China was Viagra!

Then Mr. Gong Wei was called Viagra, so he simply changed his name.

So~ now this guy’s name is Chef Gong!

Okay~ This name change is really a bit hasty, but if you like it, no one else can care!

"Uncle Gong~ Where can I do that?"

"Fried chicken. You must use white-feathered chicken!"

"This native chicken is not suitable for making fried chicken. The texture is actually not as good as that of white-feathered chicken."

"After all, fried chicken needs to be crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. This local chicken cannot achieve this effect in a short time."

"If you really want to eat it, the best way to eat this native chicken is to stew it."

Although Chen Li's cooking skills are not at the level of a chef, he loves to eat~ In addition, he knows some cooking skills, so he and Chef Gong actually started chatting like this.

But this is hard for Zhou Bowen in the kitchen!

In fact, most people of their generation know how to cook.

Just like Zhou Bowen today, although he has a lot of assets, he is also good at cooking.

But being able to cook and being good at cooking are completely different things.

Zhou Bowen was basically unqualified in front of Chef Gong.

But for today's meal, Zhou Bowen originally invited Chen Li to come over to meet him, but now it's better, he and Chen Li haven't had much conversation yet~ Chef Gong actually started chatting with him.

But Zhou Bowen actually didn't care about this. His purpose of calling Chen Li this time was just to get acquainted.

To put it bluntly, Zhou Bowen knew through his daughter that there was a young man like Chen Li who was good at doing business, and he wanted to meet him.

But this time, I felt that it was okay. Anyway, Zhou Bowen felt that Chen Li seemed to be quite to his liking.

This point is quite different from Chen Li's own random reasons.

From Zhou Bowen's point of view, this was actually an ordinary dinner. He just wanted to meet the capable young man his daughter said he was.

But from Chen Li's point of view, he felt that the other party who invited him to dinner might have ulterior motives.

Uh~ This is actually a cognitive error caused by identity asymmetry.

Because in Chen Li's opinion, a big real estate boss like Zhou Bowen has no time to chat with a young man like himself.

This sudden invitation to dinner must be a conspiracy.

For example, is the other party planning to acquire Ideal Fried Chicken?

This is actually one of the reasons why Chen Li has been putting off meeting Zhou Bowen!

As a result, after this meeting, I couldn't say that I was confused, but I still felt that something was wrong.

Because this meal looks so informal.

If Zhou Bowen was planning to acquire Ideal Fried Chicken, he would not have put on such a posture.

Especially now that Zhou Bowen even ran to the kitchen to prepare side dishes, but when chatting with him, he turned into Chef Gong who was supposed to be a supporting role.

This is so weird!

"Stew ~ you have to stew!"

"To be honest, for thousands of years in China, we are actually the best at cooking chicken."

“It’s just stew!”

"In fact, whether you are eating meat or drinking soup, stewing can solve the problem."

"I'm telling you, this chicken has to eat first."

As a chef who loves to delve into cooking, Chef Gong is particularly enthusiastic when talking about food-related things.

This buddy~ directly chatted with Chen Li about his cooking experience in this small courtyard.

It’s just Chen Li~ I’m really happy to chat with this guy.

So this chat lasted half an hour.

At this time, Zhou Bowen, who had already prepared the side dishes, came over to urge him. Do you still want to eat this meal?

"Gong Wei~! I'm here to treat you today, do you want to cook the meal?"

Zhou Bowen was speechless. If he had known this, he might as well have asked Chen Li and others to find a hotel or other private kitchen to eat.

This was the decades of friendship between him and Chef Gong, otherwise they would have fallen out with each other long ago.

Of course, if it weren’t for the decades of friendship, Chef Gong wouldn’t have left him alone!

After being reminded by Zhou Bowen, Chef Gong finally reacted and stood up quickly and said to Chen Li excitedly:

"Man~ What's wrong? This kitchen is ready-made, why don't we try it?"

"No~Uncle Gong, I have to trouble you about this!"

"If possible, you can just let me watch from the side!"

Chen Li hurriedly waved his hand. With his little cooking skills, he could fool ordinary people, but in front of a real chef like Chef Gong, it would be equivalent to doing the same thing!

"Watch whatever you want~Watch whatever you want!"

"Hehe~What...!"

Chef Gong also shook his hand, indicating that he didn't care about this.

Some older chefs don't even allow outsiders to watch when they are cooking, mainly because they are afraid that some secret recipes will be learned.

Especially some chefs, when making a certain dish, have some simple steps that are easy to learn but rarely known to outsiders. This kind of thing lies in a secret!

Don't underestimate these recipes or steps. It is very likely that just because of this, the taste of a dish can be upgraded to a higher level.

Of course, this is mostly the habit of older chefs, but Chef Gong seems to be doing just fine!

But at this moment~ Chef Gong suddenly rubbed his hands together, seeming to feel a little embarrassed!

Chen Li seemed to see something, smiled and said:

"Uncle Gong~ In this case, I will have some chickens delivered to you this afternoon."

"Hi~ What's your kid's name? What's your name?"

"Just call me brother!"

"Then what~this chicken. I just accepted it~hehe!"

No wonder Chef Gong was acting like this. When he was chatting with Chen Li just now, he had already asked Chen Li about the chicken.

Chen Li has no intention of selling the yellow-feathered chickens from the farm.

The reason is very simple. Yellow-feathered chickens that have not yet gained word-of-mouth and fame cannot be sold for much money.

For the white-feathered chickens in the chicken farm, Chen Li has no intention of taking any high-end route.

Even though the quality of white-feathered chickens has already caught up with ordinary native chickens, the breeding model of white-feathered chickens has destined that these chickens must be sold in large quantities.

After all, given the growth rate of White Feather Chicken, it is actually unrealistic to blindly pursue the high-end route.

But the Yellow Feather Chicken is different. Chen Li intends to take a high-end route with this thing.

Therefore, Chen Li has always kept this yellow-feathered chicken in his hands. Currently, only the farmhouse on the chicken farm produces and sells it.

Because the reputation and reputation of yellow-feathered chickens have not been established, if outsiders do not recognize this thing, then this chicken cannot be sold at a high price!

Only when some high-end customers recognize this Yellow Feather Chicken will Huang Feather Chicken show its talents.

But this left Chef Gong speechless because he was not familiar with Chen Li!

In addition, Chen Li said from the beginning that this thing was not for sale, which made Chef Gong not sure how to speak.

But let’s face it~ Comrade Chen’s consciousness is quite high. Before Chef Gong even opened his mouth, he brought it up himself!

This guy, so this friend~Chef Gong is settled!
