Chapter 391 Who wants to treasure it...

The sour plum soup I’m going to sell tonight is very simple to make.

The main ingredient is black plum, which is green plum that turns black after being smoked or steamed in a steamer.

The bag of black plums in Su Chen's hand is a top-quality product given by the system. It is said that they were smoked by old craftsmen in the deep mountains of Sichuan and Chongqing, and have the aroma of aged charcoal fire.

Compared with this, the sour plum soup made with industrial saccharin on the market is not even worthy of carrying shoes.

In addition to black plums, there are also hawthorn, osmanthus, licorice, tangerine peel, mint, and rock sugar.

Black plum removes oil and relieves greasiness, osmanthus resolves phlegm and relieves blood stasis, licorice clears away heat and detoxifies, tangerine peel regulates qi and strengthens the spleen, hawthorn reduces blood lipids and blood pressure, and rock sugar replenishes qi and moistens the lungs.

With these few things put together, it’s no wonder that Emperor Qianlong liked it so much that he had to drink some sour plum soup before and after meals.

The first step is to soak the ingredients. Rinse the dry ingredients with cold water and wait for them to soak for half an hour.

After soaking, put the old casserole on the fire, pour in the soaked ingredients together with the water, and then add a ladle of mountain spring water. It may be a bit pretentious, but the soup cooked with mountain spring water is refreshing and sweet.

Bring to a boil over high heat, then simmer on low heat. At this time, the sourness of black plums, the astringency of hawthorns, and the sweetness of tangerine peel blend little by little in the gurgling bubbles.

Su Chen leaned against the stove, pressing the residue with a spoon from time to time to squeeze out the last bit of essence.

Filter out the first batch of soup, throw the residue back into the pot, add water and boil it again. If you don’t do this, the taste will not be thick enough.

The rock sugar used is the old rock sugar from Guangxi. It is big, yellow, and sweet, not as pungent as white sugar.

Su Chen grabbed a handful and threw it into the pot, stirring with a spoon, and the sugar grains gradually dissolved in the amber soup.

He scooped a spoonful, touched it with the tip of his tongue, and raised his eyebrows slightly. It was strong enough!

It's sour enough to give you a shiver, yet the sweetness is just right, and the aftertaste includes the medicinal aroma of tangerine peel and the smoky feeling of black plum, with distinct layers.

However, the soup is too hot. After cooking, pour the sour plum soup into several glass pots, sprinkle some dried osmanthus, and then refrigerate for two hours.

……

The time points to five o'clock.

Butler Ding went to pick up Nuonuo. Su Chen glanced at the time and began to make final preparations for tonight's business.

The iced sour plum soup has been poured into the cup, with mint leaves inserted on the top for decoration.

Wait until the things are loaded into the car.

Su Chen's eyes then fell on the gift box that had been neglected all afternoon.

How does the saying go...You can avoid the first, but you can't avoid the fifteenth.

It's time to see just how sharky this shark is.

Su Chen took a deep breath and slowly opened the gift box. As expected, there was a bulging vacuum-compressed packaging bag inside.

As usual, I’ll change into the doll costume when I arrive at the business location.

Thinking of this, Su Chen reached out and opened the car door, ready to put the doll costume in first.

When the door opened, Mr. Krabs' leather suit was still lying there quietly.

amount……

The plankton is so green that it is unsightly and disturbing to look at. The system should just recycle it.

Perhaps sensing his inner thoughts, a line of words appeared before his eyes.

"The host can keep it as a souvenir and treasure it forever."

When Su Chen saw this line of words, his expression suddenly became tense.

Damn it, who the hell wants to keep this as a souvenir?
If such an ugly boss gets up to go to the bathroom in the middle of the night and suddenly sees such a thing, he will probably be scared.

Moreover, it also carries all kinds of embarrassing memories from yesterday.

Don’t you have to think of it every time you see it?
"System, I think you should take it away! I don't want this thing!"

Su Chen expressed an ugly refusal.

However, no matter what he said, the system pretended to be dead and did not respond.

Su Chen had no choice but to take this piece of "spiritual pollution" out of the car and return it to the house with a look of disgust. He found a relatively secluded place and sealed it in a box, so that it would be out of sight and out of mind.

After packing these up, Su Chen wrote today’s sour plum soup on the small white board.

Sour plum soup is simple, but the price set by Su Chen is not low, ten yuan per cup.

Although it is a bit expensive, the ingredients used, such as black plums and hawthorns, are all of high quality.

The tangerine peel is still quite old. If it were sold in a pharmacy, its value would definitely be more than this amount. It is absolutely worth the money.

Not only that, the lines in the purchase instructions have also been changed to the two sentences that were unlocked yesterday.

"Hey! I am the Shark King! Buy me a cup of sour plum juice, or I'll prick you with my tail needle!" and "That year, when the apricot blossoms were blooming and the rain was drizzling, you said you were the Shark King, but you were wrong in the end."

Su Chen looked at these two lines and felt a little worried.

Imagine the customers’ reactions when they see these lines…

I shouldn't get beaten...

After resting for a while, Su Chen drove towards the Foreign Language Primary School with a tragic mood.

……

On the other side, at Ge Tian’s home.

Ge Tianzheng was lying on the sofa in his home, surrounded by all kinds of cute pillows.

She stared at the screen of her mobile phone, her fingers sliding quickly across the screen, chatting with fans in the water friend group.

Messages scrolled across the phone screen:
"Host, yesterday's live broadcast was so good, why don't you consider doing another one today?"

"Yeah, I kind of miss Mr. Krabs!"

"Host, there are no outsiders in this group. Tell me the truth, is the milk tea sold by Mr. Pi really delicious?"

"Boss Pixar x Emperor, this is so good! Lock him up!"

"I was planning to drink the milk tea made by Boss Pi today. I missed it yesterday. What a pity."

Ge Tian looked at the news and turned over on the sofa like a salted fish.

Then type quickly in the group.

"Knocking on anything will only harm you!"

"I'm a game anchor. What's the point of always broadcasting live outdoors? I have my own aspirations!"

Ge Tian really had no plans to continue live streaming on Boss Pi.

Although yesterday’s live broadcast was a blast, this thing was only fun the first time I watched it.

If I rehash the same old stuff again, not only will I find it boring, but the audience will probably also become aesthetically fatigued.

However, this does not affect Ge Tian's longing for milk tea.

When she thought of the pure and rich taste of milk tea, she couldn't help swallowing and muttering to herself.

"How can there be such delicious milk tea!"

"But if you drink too much milk tea, you'll get fat, right?"

A conflicted look appeared on Ge Tian's face.

But soon, she thought of a universal solution: toss a coin!

Thinking of it and doing it, Ge Tian instantly became energetic and jumped up from the sofa.

She searched everywhere in the living room for a long time, and finally found a coin under the sofa with a dusty face.

I don’t know how long this coin has been hidden under the sofa. It is covered with dust and looks dirty.

Ge Tian held the coin in his hand, not caring about his disdain, and announced directly, "If it's heads, I drink it, if it's tails, I don't drink it!"
