Chapter 9 Foodie Nature
When Li Mo woke up, it was already 7:30 the next day. As soon as he washed up, Master came and knocked on the door.
"Master, have you finished your breakfast?"
"If you eat it, you haven't eaten it. The fried poached eggs are filled with sugar and I'm not used to it. The milk is fresh and tastes weird. It's just a few slices of mushrooms which are good, but the amount is too little. Hurry up and change your clothes.
Let’s go out and make some fried dough sticks and soy milk.”
Li Mo smiled. He lived in a presidential suite worth tens of thousands a night and thought about buying fried dough sticks and soy milk from a roadside stall for a few dollars. This man's thoughts were really weird.
However, it was really delicious to eat breakfast at the roadside stall. Li Mo drank three bowls of tofu curd, two fried dough sticks and a basket of special soup dumplings.
"Xiao Mo, why do you eat so much? It seems like you haven't eaten enough for several days."
Li Mo touched his stomach. Thinking about it, it was really like this. His appetite had almost doubled. He wondered if it was the sequelae caused by the lightning strike. Even his eyes had changes. What else was impossible?
"It's almost time, let's go there."
Kyoto University is located near the ruins of the Old Summer Palace, and is surrounded by many of the country's top prestigious schools, such as Tsinghua University, National People's Congress, as well as music conservatories and dance conservatories filled with beauties.
Li Mo stood at the east door and looked around. After a while, he saw a young man in his twenties coming out to make a call. Yanagawa Kei glanced at the caller and waved to him.
"Hello, Mr. Liu, I am Professor Zhu's assistant teaching Lin Dong. Professor Zhu asked me to pick you up."
"Excuse me, Assistant Lin."
Lin Dong behaved very coldly along the way, indifferent to Yanagawa Kei's questions, and even seemed a little impatient. Li Mo followed behind, his face getting more and more ugly.
"Master, please walk slower. Assistant Lin is walking with his eyes in the air. Don't bump into him. If he falls, it will be your fault again."
Lin Dong suddenly turned around and asked with a livid face: "What do you mean?"
"It's not interesting. I just saw that this road is all cement and I'm worried about you falling." Li Mo curled his lips with disdain on his face. I'm here for an interview and I'm not trying to steal your girlfriend. Who are you to show off?
.
"Xiao Mo, shut up." Yanagawa Qingqiao hurriedly stopped him, and then smiled at Lin Dong and said, "The little kid has never seen much of the world and has an impulsive personality. Assistant Lin should be as knowledgeable as him."
“Too unqualified.”
Lin Dong snorted and turned around to leave.
Yanagawa Kei pointed at Li Mo's nose and asked him to calm down. After all, he was Professor Zhu's assistant, and there was no benefit in offending him.
The three of them walked for about ten minutes and arrived in front of a teaching building. Lin Dong looked back at Li Mo and revealed a sneer: "Those who are participating in the interview will follow me in. The others are waiting outside."
Yanagawa Kei still had a smile on his face. After all, he was in business. He had seen all kinds of people, much worse than him. Fighting against such people would be a recipe for anger.
"Xiao Mo, big things come first."
"Don't worry, Master, I understand the importance." Li Mo took a deep breath and slowly walked into the classroom door.
"I also sent my children here for the interview, right?"
Not far away, there were several men in their forties or fifties chatting. When they saw Yanagawa Kei telling Li Mo, they waved to him and said hello.
"You too?"
"We are all the same. We work hard for the children at home and hope that they can all strive for success. I heard that this interview was initiated by Peking University and invited professors from the archeology departments of Tsinghua University and Renmin University of China to jointly interview, making it the first attempt to discover special talents."
"We are all peers, and some of the skills inherited from our families are not considered great. If we can be trained by experts, we will be more promising in the future than inheriting the family business."
"However, there are only two special recruitment places this time, and nine people participated in the interview. The competition is very fierce."
Yanagawa Kei opened his mouth but didn't say anything. He began to worry about whether Li Mo could get into the eyes of the professors.
Li Mo didn't expect the interview to be so grand. He followed Lin Dong into the classroom and saw a row of seats in the huge classroom. Three old men of similar age were sitting there. Each of them had a nameplate placed on their desk.
Three professors.
Li Mo looked at Professor Zhu Changping, who was a hale and hearty old man in his sixties, with a slim build, wearing black-rimmed glasses and a navy blue tunic suit.
He was looking at a stack of documents in his hand, drawing circles on it from time to time. Lin Dong walked up behind him, lowered his head and whispered something, and then saw Professor Zhu frowning slightly and looking up at Li Mo.
Li Mo looked calmly and nodded to Professor Zhu.
Without even thinking about it, I knew that Assistant Lin must have said something bad. I really couldn’t figure out why I conveyed a sense of hostility from the beginning of our meeting if we didn’t have a deep hatred for him.
When the soldiers came to cover up the water and earth, Li Mo no longer bothered about Assistant Lin, because a few eyes had already focused on him, looking at him. Those people had young faces and were about eighteen or nineteen years old. They should all be participating in the interview.
competitor.
There was one empty chair left, so Li Mo walked over and sat down.
"The last student has arrived, let's officially start." The speaker was Professor Zhu Changping, who raised the microphone, "Good morning, dear students, the motivation for this interview is somewhat special. Although everyone is not top-notch academically, but in
In some aspects, you have talents that ordinary people cannot possess. In short, this interview is an attempt to reform talent selection, but only two of you nine will be admitted, so you must go all out during the assessment process.
"
Li Mo sat there calmly, and the other eight people began to look nervous. After all, whether they can jump over the dragon's door depends on their performance in the next hour or two.
"Are we too serious? These children are at a loss." Professor Yu Huilian of Tsinghua University said with a smile, "Everyone, don't be nervous. Let's introduce ourselves from left to right."
The first male student stood up, bowed, and then said with a vibrato: "Hello teachers, my name is Hu Zhiqiang, from Yuzhou."
"Yuzhou is a good place with a gathering of people and culture. We have been to that place before to do research reports. There is a special delicacy called, what is it called?" The gray-haired old professor couldn't remember it for a moment.
"The dragon turns over the sea."
Someone among the interviewers shouted loudly, and everyone present looked at that person, because the person who named this dish was not Hu Zhiqiang from Yuzhou.
Li Mo felt uncomfortable being looked at and said awkwardly: "I've eaten it once and the taste is unforgettable."
"Hahaha, this classmate is right, the taste will be unforgettable for a long time after you taste it once. In fact, the main ingredient is a kind of eel, but after being cooked by famous experts, it is the ultimate delicious food."
With this interruption, the atmosphere in the classroom began to relax.
"Hello teachers, my name is Tang Ningxi, and I come from the tourist resort of Suzhou City."
The second person was a relatively ordinary-looking female classmate. She might be nervous, but then she continued: "We also have a delicious dish called..."
“Dongpo Pork.”
It was Li Mo who came to the rescue again. The Dongpo meat is so delicious, it melts in your mouth, fat but not greasy.
The female classmate looked grateful.
As for the third classmate, he comes from Jinling, the ancient capital of the Six Dynasties, located in the land where dragons and tigers dominate.
"When it comes to Jinling's specialties, such as salted duck and sweet-scented osmanthus duck, they are relatively famous, but the really delicious ones are found in folk alleys." Professor Yu actually brought the topic to food, "I remember going to Jinling with my teacher when I was young.
After a seminar, I tasted a soup stock led by the teacher. It was really delicious. I heard that eight kinds of meat are used to make the soup. After being filtered one by one, the clear soup is left. Simply add some salt and drink it directly. I don’t know.
Is that restaurant still there?”
"Old Yu, if you have a chance, go and taste it again."
The three professors all laughed, and the interview atmosphere became relaxed and lively.
"Professor Yu, is the restaurant you are talking about owned by the owner named Gu?"
Everyone in the classroom looked at him in surprise. Does this kid even know this?
"You were right. The owner of that store has the same last name as my teacher, so I remember it more clearly."
Li Mo then said with a smile: "Now that restaurant has been passed down to my grandson. After three generations of exploration, two kinds of meat were replaced with a kind of sea fish and a kind of freshwater herring, which increased the freshness of the soup."
It’s so fragrant that they even created a dish called ‘Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea’.”
