Chu Yunfei heard that this dish was called "Snow Mountain Flying Fox", and he was even more interested. He quickly asked: "Secretary Ye, is this fox meat? I heard that fox meat has a strong smell. Why is this Snow Mountain Flying Fox?"
No fishy smell at all?"
Ye Ming shook his head and said: "Director Chu, this is not fox meat. Its scientific name is 'flying squirrel'. It is somewhat similar to a squirrel, but there is a wide skin membrane between the limbs of the flying squirrel. When unfolded, it looks like a paraglider."
, can glide freely between the woods, so they are also called "flying squirrels". The flying squirrel we eat now is a silver-white flying squirrel that lives in the old forests of Shangmei Mountain in Beishan County.
Fully fifty centimeters long.
"This kind of flying squirrel comes out day and night every day and likes to eat nuts such as walnuts and pine nuts, so their meat is very tender, sweet and very clean. Because Shangmei Mountain belongs to the remnants of the Xuefeng Mountains, the flying squirrels here are silver-white.
, so people in Beishan County call them "Snow Mountain Flying Foxes". At present, this kind of flying squirrel can only be caught in the primeval forest of Shangmei Mountain, and is basically extinct in other places, so it has now become a unique sight in Beishan County.
Specialties.”
Lu Nianzi asked a little worriedly: "Xiao Ming, since this kind of flying squirrel is so rare, is it a national protected animal? It's not illegal for us to eat it!"
Ye Ming scratched his scalp and said: "I don't know about this, but people in Beishan have been eating this food for decades, and it has become a famous dish. I have never seen the forest police investigate or ban it. It shouldn't be to protect animals."
Come on! I heard that the mountain people in the deep mountains and old forests of Shangmei Mountain usually don’t have any source of income, so they just hunt and sell some wild animals.
The money is exchanged for daily necessities and oil, salt, sauce and vinegar. The wild boars, badgers, bamboo chickens, turtle doves, muntjacs and other game they hunt are all sold openly and no one inquires. However, if this thing is a protected animal, I will go back
I’ll ask about it later, it’s best to ban hunting. We won’t care about that today, since the food is already on the table, let’s taste it first!”
At this time, Zhang Linjiang tasted another dish that was served together with the "Snow Mountain Flying Fox" and asked Ye Ming in surprise: "Xiao Ming, is this dish a fir tree mushroom? I haven't eaten this kind of mushroom in more than ten years.
It’s delicious, and the way it’s made is very special, it’s so delicious!”
Ye Ming nodded with a smile and said: "The characteristic of Shangmei Mountain is that there are many wild animals and wild dishes. When the season for growing fir tree mushrooms comes, the mountains and fields are covered with golden mushrooms. The mountain people can't finish the fir tree mushrooms they picked.
They then thought of a way to boil the fresh fir tree mushrooms in boiling water, add a little salt, and then dry them in the sun to become dried mushrooms, and then use them
Soak these dried mushrooms in a porcelain jar with rapeseed oil and seal them well. In this way, even after a long time, these fir tree mushrooms can still maintain their sweet taste and will not spoil.
The fir tree mushrooms you just ate are dried mushrooms soaked in oil taken out of a porcelain jar, stir-fried with some pork belly, and the taste is very delicious."
After hearing Ye Ming's introduction, Chu Yunfei and others immediately took some fir tree mushrooms and tasted them. As expected, it was fragrant, sweet and delicious, and they couldn't help but praise it in unison.
When Ye Ming saw that Chu Yunfei, Chen Taikui, Liu Guangqiang and others loved the "Snow Mountain Flying Fox" and the Fir Tree Mushroom so much, his heart couldn't help but he began to ponder a question...
Halfway through the banquet, Ye Ming's cell phone rang suddenly. It was Qiu Haiyun, the president of the Min'an Chamber of Commerce. He only heard him whisper on the phone: "Secretary Ye, can you come out of the box? I
Just in the corridor outside your box."
Ye Ming hurriedly said hello to Lu Nianzi and others, saying that someone was looking for him outside. Then he went out and walked to the aisle. He saw Qiu Haiyun standing not far away holding a wine glass. When he saw him coming out, his eyes lit up and he walked towards him.
Taking the first two steps to reach him, with pleading words
He said in a low voice: "Secretary Ye, can I come into your box and toast you with a few glasses of wine? When the leaders of the National Development and Reform Commission came to the club just now, I happened to have something to go out and did not talk to Director Lu, Director Chu, Director Liu, etc.
Meet and greet people.
"To tell you the truth, my company is now preparing to enter the new energy market in Northeast China, but several investment projects with good prospects are stuck in the Energy Department of the National Development and Reform Commission and cannot be approved. I have asked my friends many times to ask Director Liu Guangqiang to
Come out to have a meal together and report my project to him, but
I have been unable to do so. Today, thanks to Secretary Ye, so many important leaders of the National Development and Reform Commission came to the club, and Director Liu happened to be here too. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for me. I ask Secretary Ye to find a way to make it happen.
I will do my best to repay your great kindness from now on!"
Ye Ming didn't have a bad impression of Qiu Haiyun, and he also heard Lu Nianzi mention this matter. Knowing that he was in a hurry now, he hurriedly said: "President Qiu, wait a moment, I will go in and ask Director Lu. Today
It's her treat, so I can't really make the decision."
Qiu Haiyun was overjoyed and said hurriedly: "Thank you, Secretary Ye. Please go in and ask questions as soon as possible. I'll be waiting here."
So Ye Ming went back in, walked to Lu Nianzi, and told her Qiu Haiyun's request in a low voice.
Lu Nianzi thought for a moment and said, "Let him come in. It doesn't matter if he toasts a few glasses of wine."
Ye Ming hurriedly picked up the phone, dialed Qiu Haiyun's mobile phone number, and asked him to come into the box.
After a while, Qiu Haiyun came in with a wine glass with a smile on his face. He first looked at the brand of liquor on the table, and then said to the waiter: "Please bring in two more bottles of liquor, which must be exactly the same as the ones in this box.
, record it in my personal name first."
After the waiter brought the wine, Qiu Haiyun, starting with Chu Yunfei, toasted everyone present a glass of wine one by one. Seeing that Ye Ming had a better attitude toward him, Lu Nianzi guessed that he wanted to help him, so he waited for him to finish the toast.
, asked the waiter to bring a stool and asked him to sit down next to Liu Guangqiang.
Qiu Haiyun was originally planning to toast him with a round of drinks and then leave. Unexpectedly, Lu Nianzi asked him to sit down next to Liu Guangqiang. He couldn't help but be overjoyed. He quickly thanked Lu Nianzi and sat down next to Liu Guangqiang with a smile on his face.
When Wu Minggao responded to Qiu Haiyun, he suddenly asked: "President Qiu, when Comrade Ye Ming came to Beijing yesterday, people from your Chamber of Commerce deliberately made things difficult for him and neglected him. What's going on? People from the Min'an Office in Beijing.
It is responsible, but the responsibility of your chamber of commerce secretariat is greater. As the president of the chamber of commerce, you should give Comrade Ye Ming a reasonable explanation!"
Qiu Haiyun didn't expect Wu Minggao to suddenly mention this embarrassing matter. He saw Lu Nianzi staring at him with sharp eyes, obviously waiting for his answer. He felt a little flustered. After thinking about it carefully, he replied: "Mayor Wu
, Our Chamber of Commerce is indeed very responsible for this matter, but I did not know in advance that it was the Secretary-General Liu Hong and several Min'an Chamber of Commerce directors who arranged the matter privately.
Later, I also criticized them. What they did was very dirty, unjust, and contrary to the purpose and charter of our chamber of commerce. I will make a statement here: I will convene the chamber of commerce tonight
The board of directors will study this matter specifically. At the meeting, I will propose that Liu Hong be removed from the post of secretary-general of the Chamber of Commerce, and we must seek justice for Secretary Ye."
