The Treasure Hunt of an Antique Dealer

Before returning to the Valmar’s manor, the rain stopped outside, but even if there is no rain tomorrow, it’s not a good idea to enter the jungle after such a short heavy rain. You have to let the sun shine for a day or two. .

　　 The banquet that night made Valmar and the Jain family let go of their stomachs and had a good meal. Daniel's team combined the mastery of Chinese and Western cooking, and the richness of the dishes made the host stunned!

　　 A big feast, how am I embarrassed to take out without a forty or fifty dishes.

　　 As for the taste, a big pot of braised lamb made the brahmins appetite, let alone other fine delicacies.

This braised mutton is not a dish in Zhang Nan’s hometown, nor is it an American dish. Danny learned it from Tang Guina. As for Tang Gui, it was still in the army, from Haiyan Shupu, not far from Shanghai. The town learned it.

　　澉澉pu mutton, tapping!

　　 But there is something strange to the Brahmins of these two families: As for the mutton, Mr. Allen actually only eats a cold cut of goat meat that doesn't taste much at all, and it tastes good with some Chinese soy sauce.

Zhang Nan doesn’t like braised mutton. Danny will learn the dish of Shupu mutton. That is because Xiang Weirong mentioned it once, and the chef himself thinks it tastes good, otherwise he doesn’t need to learn it at all. .

　　 This show of cooking skills happened to be used against these Indian Brahmins.

　　 Indians love to be vegetarian, the higher the caste, the more vegetarian. And even if you eat meat, you usually eat some mutton and chicken, plus some pigeons at most.

　　 Danni’s team does not have much research on the way of chicken because the owner only likes to eat stewed chicken in clear soup. As for pigeons, they have studied the roast pigeon together for hundreds of thousands of years, so they can’t compete with the master’s strengths.

　　Zhang Nan likes "dragon and phoenix fight" to make soup, but if a brahmin like Valma and the Jain family is given a soup pot with snake segments, people might jump up!

　　 Some of the inferior castes and untouchables eat snakes, and the Brahmins never touch that, at least in the Valma and Jain houses.

　　 Treating guests in a place where there are many taboos is a lot of trouble!

　　 Hindus can eat pork, but the quality of pork in India is not good and the breeding environment is extremely unhygienic. Hindus of high caste never touch that, and even feel dirty when they see live pigs.

How about 　　 camel?

　　 This is South India, nothing like that. Besides, Danny’s boss is not the Prince of the Middle East, and the chef team has never cooked camel meat.

　　 As for beef, can God cow eat it?

　　 This is not necessarily true, because the Hindus seem to have a caste system for cows—not all cows are sacred cows, and only the local Indian zebu are called sacred cows or sacred cows.

　　 There are many breeds of cattle, and there are more here. For example, the number of buffaloes in India is more than half of the world's total, but these buffaloes are not even cows in the eyes of Hindus!

　　 is not a cow, so it is not a sacred cow. Naturally, it can be slaughtered and eaten.

　　 However, the Hindus basically do not eat buffalo. In addition to the need for arable land, the main reason for the large number of buffalo breeding is the huge demand for milk by the Indians and the government's vigorous promotion of the development of the dairy industry.

　　 After the cow's milk production has dropped significantly, the female buffalo will be sent to the slaughterhouse just like the male buffalo of lower economic value and become the raw material for Indian beef exports. "

　　 Buffalo can be slaughtered, but it is still not eaten very much. The theory of "buffalo is not a cow" seems to be just a reasonable reason for Indians to exchange for economic benefits. India, which is full of sacred cows, is actually one of the top three beef exporters in the world!

　　 Many people would not think that India is a big beef exporter. The relatively low-priced Indian buffalo meat is quite popular in the markets of many countries in Africa, the Middle East and Southeast Asia.

　　 Although the zebu has a sacred status in India, in India today, faith has also been impacted by economic interests and consumer trends.

　　 There are only 3,600 legal slaughterhouses in India, but there are more than 30,000 illegal slaughterhouses, many of which are slaughtered and sold beef meat for profit.

　　 Zebu cows are also sent to the slaughterhouse because they are old and unable to produce milk or because farmers suffer from poor harvests or droughts, in exchange for funds to purchase calves and make a living.

　　 In addition, some young Hindus of high caste have begun to become interested in beef!

　　The Valma family and the Jain family are considered to be Indians in the new era, but at the same time they are the most conservative and traditional supporters, a combination of contradictions.

Before coming to India, Davenlar even mentioned on the phone that if Zhang Nan likes to eat beef, there are also very good imported beef sold in the high-end shopping mall in Trivandrum, and there is no need to bring it directly from the United States. .

　　 In Trivandrum, people of all faiths can coexist harmoniously, so beef is sold naturally.

　　Davinlar This is a habit of taking care of customers. If the beef from the local slaughterhouse is not hygienic, expensive high-grade imported beef is a good choice.

　　 They don’t eat it at home, but as long as they don’t eat together, they don’t mind if they eat some beef. At this time, their family doesn't care about the buffalo beef of the tenants below. They can only work if they eat meat. As a landlord, this account will be settled.

Out of courtesy, Zhang Nan doesn’t eat beef these days, and he doesn’t even touch the local buffalo meat in Kerala. You must know that in his hometown, the buffalo meat is not as cheap as yellow beef. Poor, not much beef flavor yet.

　　 Pork is not good. Although there are good ducks here, the stewed duck from my hometown can’t be done, because suet and skin are used, so I can only serve the sesame oil **** female duck without pork bones.

　　Pigs and cattle are all useless. Four-legged beasts can only compete with sheep this time. There is no way. You must know that according to the boss’s eating habits, lamb is the least eaten.

　　 As for game, these brahmins who like hunting basically don't eat except water gazelle. They really regard hunting as a sport.

Of course, prey is generally not wasted. People of low-caste and middle-class people still eat a lot of wild game—except for wild beasts. Unless specially processed, the scent of any kind of beast meat can be so great. Retreat!

　　 There is no choice for domestic animals, and the restrictions on poultry are also large. Fortunately, here is close to the sea, there are many kinds of fresh seafood, and the quantity is enough!

　　The Walma housekeeper responsible for the purchase ordered several kinds of flounder as required. This kind of weird-looking marine fish is not practiced much in Kerala, and I thought it would not be able to play many tricks.

　　The Indians don’t know that different varieties of flounder can be used to make flowers. Daniel and others have made several kinds of patterns, such as steamed, pan-fried fish fillets, braised and grilled, according to the different varieties.

　　 If it weren't for caring for the owner who can only use hands, forks and spoons, there would be more variety.

　　 Halibut is just one of them. Daniel asked about the local seafood species yesterday, and found that there is a local fish that the boss likes.

　　 octopus, so the procurement staff brought in a lot of big guys almost the width of the palm, remove the head and tail, steamed one, and braised one in brown sauce.

　　 Although the texture of hairtail grown in tropical waters of the Indian Ocean is a bit thicker than that of East China Sea hairtail, it is not bad. At least it tastes more vigorous.

　　 The fish is big enough, wide enough, and thick enough, and the fish bones on both sides are easy to take out, which is convenient for a group of people with knives and forks.

　　 There are no fans here. Fresh lobsters are made with garlic, thick-wrist prawns are cut and grilled on an iron plate, and smaller varieties of hard-shelled prawns are braised in soy sauce.

　　 Some dishes are the first time people from the Valma family have tried, such as cold cuttlefish, fried cuttlefish with sauce, fried cuttlefish with green peppers, if it weren't for no pickles here, Daniel will give everyone a classic fried cuttlefish with pickles.

　　 Molluscs are not among the dietary taboos of the Valmar family. They just didn't look at them before, and there is no concept of eating them in their minds.

　　 has no concept, naturally it is not a taboo.

　　 But it really came up, I still need some courage to eat.

However, after eating this time, the Tuwang family and the Jain family liked the taste of cuttlefish. Davenlar simply said to Zhang Nan directly at the table: "Allen, you have to ask your chef to teach my chef to cook these. Food, and let my butler know where to get these spices."

　　 At this time, Zhang Nan was dealing with a pound of white water boiled red star portunus crab, boiled it whole in clean water, it was big enough, and the inside was full of cream, dipped in seafood soy sauce, absolutely delicious on earth.

　　 This is Zhang Nan’s favorite way of eating. The swimming crabs are authentic if they are cooked in water. Others, whether they are cut in scallion oil or steamed with condiments, are heretics in his eyes!

　　 Because eating big crabs requires using two hands and taking care of friends, Zhang Nan also wears plastic gloves on his left hand.

　　 The guests all ate like this, and the hosts tried it. Someone immediately fell in love with the deliciousness of the crab, but the old Mrs. Valmar didn't even dare to try it. He thought the big crab was a monster!

　　 This will hear Darwinlar’s ​​words, Zhang Nan put down the crab stocks that Meimei was about to take a bite, and said: "No problem, but many of the seasonings are made in China. How about re-exporting it from me?"

　　 Davinlar said with a smile: "It's not necessary. I can ask friends in the China Embassy to purchase, and your chef can just make a list."

　　 These are all small problems, and what can be solved with money is not a problem.

There are a lot of sea fish today. In order to take care of these Brahmins who are very accustomed to Western food, there are more than a dozen sea fish that are made in Western food. Because of time, they are relatively rough. They are not as petty as French dishes, and more of the United States. Grilled and deep-fried go into battle.

　　 On a large plate, eating separately is also in line with the custom of India.

　　 There are a lot of vegetables today, such as braised eggplant, baby cabbage in soup, fried broccoli with carrots and shrimp, boiled okra, zucchini but no shrimp skin, so use shrimp fried.

　　 The shrimps are not too small, the chef team is not many, and some of them are peeling shrimps. The servants who used to handle the ingredients in the palace kitchen are all under the command of Daniel this afternoon. There is no need to worry about hygiene.

　　 There are enough shrimps to be peeled, so Daniel simply used it himself and made Daohai Shrimp version of Longjing Shrimp.

　　 Use olive oil without lard. Anyway, the owner of Longjing Tea will always bring this dish. This dish is very popular among diners.

　　 It’s convenient, you can squeeze it into your mouth with a spoon without vomiting even the bones.

　　 At the end of the meal, the staple food is white rice, without fancy fried rice. In fact, everyone has no appetite anymore, but they still ate a little bit.

　　 Zhang Nan used his hands to eat crabs. In the end, Davenlar and others simply abandoned the slightly inconvenient knife and fork and grabbed them directly.

　　 A large group of people eat with their hands, and they can't learn chopsticks all at once, like eating cuttlefish and shrimp just now, they all use spoons.

　　I can use my hands, and Indians eat well.

　　 There is no performance for dinner tonight, but the nightlife has just begun. When the restaurant is quickly cleaned up, a song and dance performance that is much larger than yesterday will be on stage.

　　Professional team, in addition to the dance performance troupe invested by Valmar’s family, there is actually a Bollywood song and dance troupe, which was commissioned by Mr. Jain by Bollywood friends.

　　 are all partners, although they have not been invited, but Mr. Allen came to India, friends still need to show friendship.

　　 It was bustling and bustling until midnight, and Sawaguchi Yasuko had a party. She learned the essence of Indian dance from Martha, and she looked decent.

　　 When I went back to the room and took a shower, it was a little over midnight.

　　 The next day I slept until nearly ten in the morning and woke up. It was 11 o’clock after breakfast, but that’s not a problem. Today’s lunch is definitely arranged after two o’clock in the afternoon.

This is the work and rest time of the real wealthy Indians. Almost all get up at 9 o’clock, and then have morning tea in bed first. After breakfast at 11 o’clock, it’s normal to eat lunch at 3 o’clock in the afternoon. Dinner is not earlier than 8 o’clock in the afternoon. .

　　 went downstairs and saw the company appraiser who arrived last night.

Good guy, before Zhang Nan asked for a few reliable mouths, I didn’t want to see that the leader was actually Loebs-Brown, and along with the company’s chief jewelry designer Joshua Fore and Joshua His elder brother and top cutter Anton Faure, plus the company's chief cutter, Douglas Valentino.

　　 These people were chatting with the familiar Manu Jain. When Zhang Nan saw the people, he said directly: "I said Brown, are you here for a joint investigation, or were you caught in a pot while playing golf together?"

　　 When the boss appeared, Brown, who was questioned, smiled and said: "It's not golf. We were playing bridge when we received the call. It's rare to get together.

　　 As soon as I understood the situation, I thought that such a scene would be rare in a century. "

　　 Joshua said, "Boss, the four of us are coming, and the company will give the green light all the way immediately, and no one will stop it."

　　 Zhang Nan was amused by what Joshua said, "Who will stop you!"

　　 No one stopped, Brown is in charge of the jewelry group.

　　 Little Douglas took the conversation and said, "Actually, boss, the most important reason we are here is that we were talking about where to go for a holiday this year.

　　 As soon as I heard that the boss pays the bill and the tolerance for the first class round trip, this is called the right not to be used for nothing..."

　　 really tell the truth, good comrade!

　　 This kind of difference is more important. UU reading www.uukanshu.com is definitely a beautiful difference. Since the time is spared, why don't some old guys come?

　　Zhang Nan hasn't commented yet, Manu-Jiain smiled bitterly on the side: "I said, my friends, the inspection will start after the meeting. Let's say it is OK, no one can be jealous of each other's things.

half each. "

　　 It’s no good if you don’t be nervous, these five are famous enough, they are known as the four kings of the Star International, and their eyes are even more thief!

　　 "If you say that one person is half, then half. This is not about ordering people's heads for steamed buns. Don't worry!" Zhang Nan looked at the time and didn't care if he understood the meaning of steamed buns.

　　 "Go, go to Davinlar, he should be ready."

　　 Davinlar was ready, but the trading place was not indoors, but in a large stone pavilion on the east side of the third floor of the main building.

　　 The pavilion is connected to a small terrace, and there are several tables that can be put together. In this case, there will be a long table together with chairs on both sides.

　　 There is a 5600K lamp with wires on the table, waiting for everyone.

　　 It is sometimes rainy today, but there is occasional sun during this period of noon, and the trades are gems and diamonds of various colors. Trading in an outdoor environment is the most fair and rest assured: you will not be fooled by the light.
