Chapter 585: Flavor Food
"Brother Liang, that's the experimental planting base over there, right?" Xia Ruofei asked, pointing to the greenhouse in front of him. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
"Yes!" Liang Qichao nodded and said, "A total of about two hundred acres, let's go to dinner first, and then arrange time for you to inspect when we go back!"
It took about three hours on the way from Sydney, and it was already past one o'clock at noon, so Liang Qichao proposed to go to dinner first.
You can't let the boss and beautiful woman from afar go hungry to inspect, right?
"Okay, I'll listen to your arrangement when I get here!" Xia Ruofei said with a smile.
Lin Qiao couldn't help but secretly stumble when she listened to it, she had lived in Taoyuan Farm for a long time, and she knew the situation of Taoyuan Farm, but she didn't expect that the area of Australian Wonderland Farm alone reached 200 acres, which is almost the area of the entire Taoyuan Farm.
Of course, compared to the 6,000-hectare Wonderland Farm, 200 acres of land is only a small part.
Soon the car drove along the clean black asphalt road to the small farm on the shore of an artificial lake.
"We're here!" Xia Ruofei said with a smile.
Lin Qiao saw the calm and clear lake water and the green pasture in the distance through the car window, and from time to time there were birds flying over the lake, spreading ripples in the mirror-like lake, and couldn't help but ask enviously: "Brother Liang, you usually work here?
Liang Qichao said with a smile: "It's good to come here once in a while to travel, if you live here for a long time, it's too boring, the Hunter Valley area is still prosperous, and many farms in Australia are called desolate! A radius of 100 kilometers is deserted, and you have to drive two or three hours to go to the supermarket." ”
Xia Ruofei quipped: "If you feel bored, you can apply to work in the United States at any time, there is a world of flowers, I think Mr. Tang should agree." ”
"Come less!" Liang Qichao rolled his eyes and said, "I'm motivated now! Don't dampen my enthusiasm!"
Xia Ruofei raised his head and laughed.
The car drove to the door of the small cottage in the farm and stopped.
This is where Liang Qichao usually works and lives, and the other workers on the farm have special dormitories, and some of them live in the Hunter Valley and drive home by themselves after work.
Of course, the huge farm must have its own security guards, who are usually responsible for patrolling the farm and live on the farm except on vacation.
The three got out of the car, Liang Qichao consciously took on the task of taking the luggage, he quickly went around to the back of the car and opened the trunk, took out Xia Ruofei Lin Qiao's luggage, and then walked into the villa with the two of them.
Liang Qichao said with a smile as he walked: "I have already asked people to prepare lunch, let's eat at home at noon! You have worked hard all the way, take a rest here in the afternoon, and I will take you to the town in the evening." ”
"Okay, it's up to you for the next two days. Xia Ruofei said with a smile.
Although Xia Ruofei brought Lin Qiao to Australia for a tour, as the boss, he must stay at the Wonderland Farm in the Hunter Valley for a day or two, especially the experimental planting base.
Of course, Xia Ruofei will not stay in Wonderland Farm all the time, although the scenery here is picturesque, but since he has brought Lin Qiao out, he must take a walk around, cities like Sydney and Melbourne must be visited.
The three of them walked into the villa as they spoke.
On the first floor of the villa, there is a living room, a dining room, an open kitchen, and a guest room converted office, which is where Liang Qichao usually works.
When the three of them entered the door, a white uncle in the open kitchen poked his head out and greeted him warmly: "Huaxia friends, welcome!"
Liang Qichao introduced with a smile: "Ruofei, Lin Qiao, this is Uncle Bill, a full-time farmer on our farm, but his cooking skills are very good, I specially asked him to help prepare lunch this time!"
Then Liang Qichao said to Bill in English: "Uncle Bill, they are Xia Ruofei and Lin Qiao, Xia is one of the major shareholders of Wonderland Farm, so in fact, it is not appropriate for you to welcome him, because he is the master here!"
"Ahh
Xia Ruofei and Lin Qiao's English is good, and they can't help laughing when they hear it.
"Brother Liang, this foreigner is very interesting!" Xia Ruofei said with a smile.
"Uncle Bill likes to joke and is a very nice person!" Liang Qichao said.
It was past lunchtime, so everyone sat down at the table while Bill brought out the Aussie food that had already been prepared.
"Uncle Bill, sit down and eat together!" Xia Ruofei said with a smile.
"Boss, I've already had lunch!" said Bill with a smile, "It's an honor to serve you, please taste my craft first!"
Bill prepared several dishes today, all of which are very Australian, including Queensland meat pie, grilled fish steak in vanilla oil, fried crab sticks, etc., and even a roast kangaroo meat.
Liang Qichao opened a bottle of red wine, gave everyone a little bit, and then greeted with a smile: "Come on, come on, Ruofei and Lin Qiao, you eat something first to cushion your stomach." ”
Lin Qiao took a golden fried crab stick and put it in his mouth, chewed it a few times, and then showed a surprised gaze, and said, "Well! This taste is very curious! It doesn't seem to be the taste of crabs." ”
Xia Ruofei said with a smile: "Actually, this crab stick is not made of crab meat at all, but is made into the shape of a crab leg after being boneed with white fish meat, and then fried, I was put on a ...... by Brother Liang last time I came."
Liang Qichao couldn't help but look up and laugh.
Xia Ruofei also put a piece of roast kangaroo meat in his mouth, chewed it carefully and swallowed it, then gave a thumbs up to Bill, who had been standing next to him, and said, "Uncle Bill, your cooking skills are quite authentic, and the taste is very good!"
Lin Qiao also nodded again and again, and said in English: "It's very delicious! Thank you, Uncle Bill!"
Bill's eyes narrowed into a slit with a smile, and said, "Please enjoy it slowly, and there will be a chicken and corn soup in a hurry!"
With that, he turned around and went to the kitchen.
Xia Ruofei picked up the wine glass and said, "Come, let's go! Cheers to the reunion!"
"Cheers!"
At noon, everyone mainly tastes the food, and the wine is just a light taste, from beginning to end with a glass of wine, each time is a small sip.
After a while, Bill came up with a thick chicken and corn soup.
Everyone made a small bowl, and the chicken and corn soup was very fragrant, including several other dishes, although not as exquisite as the food in the big hotel, but all full of authentic Australian flavors.
Lin Qiao ate with relish, including the kangaroo meat, she was a little afraid to eat it at first, but with the encouragement and encouragement of Xia Ruofei and Liang Qichao, she still mustered up the courage to taste a piece, and then suddenly became out of control and ate several pieces in a row.
After eating, Xia Ruofei specially thanked Bill, who sacrificed his lunch break to prepare lunch for them, and gave him a delicate small folding fan.
Bill couldn't put down this Chinese-style craft, repeatedly opened and put it away, and was as happy as a child.
Bill thanked Xia Ruofei for the gift, and then took his leave and left the villa.
Xia Ruofei and Lin Qiao went back to their rooms separately to rest - after nine and a half hours of flying and three hours of driving, Lin Qiao's delicate body was already very tired, and she seemed to be in good spirits now, all because of the excitement of coming to a foreign country for the first time.
The two guest rooms prepared by Liang Qichao for them are on the third floor, the bed sheets, bedding, and pillows are all brand new, and each room has a separate toilet, which is full of brand new toiletries, towels, and bathrobes.
Xia Ruofei took a shower and went to bed to rest, and his mental power was almost exhausted three times in a row on the plane, which was also a lot of consumption for him, and soon he fell asleep.
However, he only slept for more than an hour, and was pulled up from the bed by Lin Qiao - this girl didn't seem to be excited, and she woke up after sleeping for a while, so she came over to find Xia Ruofei to go out to the Hunter Valley together.
Xia Ruofei looked at his phone sleepily, it was not yet four o'clock in the afternoon, and then he realized that he forgot to lock the door just now, fortunately he was wearing a nightgown when he slept, otherwise he would have walked away in front of Lin Qiao again.
For this girl not shying away from the defense of men and women in front of her, Xia Ruofei is also very troubled.
However, he has always been very doting on Lin Qiao, and he can't bear to blame her, so he just smiled bitterly and asked her to go out and wait for him to change his clothes.
Xia Ruofei changed into clean clothes and walked downstairs with Lin Qiao.
Liang Qichao had already gotten up, Xia Ruofei saw that he was busy, and he didn't let him accompany him, and after looking for him to get the car keys, he drove Lin Qiao out of the farm in a pickup truck and drove towards the town outside.
"Brother Ruofei, will you take me to a bar at night?" Lin Qiao said, "I've never been to a bar before!"
"Not good. Xia Ruofei deliberately said with a straight face, "The bar is a place where dragons and snakes are mixed, you'd better go less as a girl!"
Lin Qiao was not afraid at all, and said with a smile: "With a big master like Brother Ruofei, what is there to be afraid of? At most, I promise you, if you are not with you, you will never go to a place like a bar or nightclub!"
Xia Ruofei said helplessly: "Then ask Brother Liang in the evening, I'm not very familiar with this place......
"Hmm!" Lin Qiao said, snapping his fingers, "I'm going to take a hot air balloon ride, I heard that the hot air balloon sightseeing in Hunter Valley is very interesting, and also, can we take a yacht when we go to Sydney?"
"Okay, okay, as long as you like, I'll take you to play the same!" Xia Ruofei said dotingly.
"Yay, long live Brother Ruofei!" Lin Qiao raised his arms and cheered.
At this time, the car happened to pass by the door of the West Winery, Xia Ruofei turned his head to take a look, and found that the winery, which was still closed at noon, had actually opened, and he could faintly see Carter West and Aunt Cabelli.
