據稱在一千顆雞蛋裡頭，總會有一顆雞蛋含有兩個蛋黃。若然某天你買下了十二顆裝的雞蛋而裡頭均是雙黃的話，恐怕你一生的幸運已全數用在那盒雞蛋裡頭，六合彩頭獎的機會將也不會再屬於你。543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHlF9sGkgXs

「希叔，這個浮沉測試純屬只是用來猜量雞蛋的新鮮程度。就算那顆雞蛋含有兩個蛋黃，若然它並不新鮮的話，它也是會浮在水中的。」543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡafC2cMX6Bl
畢時拿起膠盤裡頭其中一顆浮在水面的雞蛋，開始進行滔滔不絕的講解。543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ814YtOa3wD
543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzSd49klBcq
雞蛋圓拱的那一面，其內部存在著一個名為氣囊的結構，主要功用是輔助內裡的小雞進行呼吸，好使牠不會在雞蛋裡窒息而死；543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn7YQEZyoK4
市面上所售賣的雞蛋均是未經受精的，所以裡頭並不會孵出小雞。只要給予母雞適當的營養，無論牠有否遇見公雞，她仍是會生下雞蛋的。543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkDzZWEzP9z
543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa8IW8EwxQN
而當一顆雞蛋從母親身上新鮮誕下來的時候，其氣囊的體積是非常細小的。但隨著雞蛋滯留在世上的時間增長，空氣便會從蛋殼的微孔進入到氣囊裡頭，使其體積逐漸倍大。543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlXQuVVpFfM
543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO3ml2HtGmD
當我們把雞蛋放進清水裡頭的話，氣囊某程度上來說便可以說為雞蛋的水泡。543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡolTAlY2fPF
而越是不新鮮的雞蛋，水泡的空氣含量便會越大，亦因而使雞蛋更易在水中浮起來。543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH0KiQcvsZE
543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqN84E8ppgc
「一般來說，雞蛋存留在世上有三四日多的話，它便會開始站立在水底，而不是打橫攤在水底裡頭。而過了一星期左右，雞蛋便會開始從水中浮起來。」543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1cAJJlViKW
畢時剛才以鷹爪之勢所抓拿的三顆雞蛋，正正就是橫攤在水底的雞蛋，亦即是最為新鮮的雞蛋。543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSRNkvkXR5E
543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡomwnrb7a9P
「竟然......」543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOd7pLNe3UU
對於希叔來說，打蛋早已變成了一道麻木的工作，有客人點上炒蛋的話他便會打蛋，沒客人要求的話便任由雞蛋安然留在蛋盒裡頭。543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwCE9xduH88
543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOA5Olv51AO
利用浮沉方法來測量雞蛋新鮮度，他想也沒有想過。543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTgnyHdm9F9
543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyZWrlbSYQH
「這十二顆雞蛋裡頭，竟然有六顆浮蛋，兩顆站立蛋......」543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQzvoDJoTUU
一直認定默記所訂購的來貨必屬佳品的希叔，被眼前的景象嚇倒了起來。543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi2k04Wmb6F
543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5rXTc4wwVc
「站立蛋並不一定是壞蛋來的。就以洽蛋為例，站立蛋將會比攤地蛋更之為適合不過。」543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbN83wqdNIx
事實上，對蛋類產品有所講求的畢時，在家中洽蛋的時候便只會用上站立蛋，攤地蛋或浮水蛋均不會納入在考慮之內。543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvway9o5aUk
543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCNwOJ14vIl
「哦？何解呢？為何有新鮮的雞蛋不用，而是偏偏用上新鮮期『不鹹不淡』的雞蛋？」543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh8e8VriTDt
希叔側起頭來，感到大惑不解。543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ60CamVpKY2
543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgSMgcdHpfF
「這純屬是個人經驗來的，我發現當氣囊處於不大不細、亦即是站立蛋狀態的時候，蛋殼剝起上來會更之為容易而已！」543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5iprpDrEm3
畢時一本正經道，訴說站立蛋的美好。543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbWbBoE0duY
543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTgQbE5aa91
「哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈！」543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAz6LbUDXsN
聽到畢時的解釋後，希叔豪邁地放聲大笑，笑得不亦樂乎。543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfoFbnoUqCP
543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5hDdykSe3E
「我起初還以為你間時之所以會接納你，主要原因是你有著自己的一套想法，而不是墨守成規地依照著『默書』的手法去處理事情。543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsbH7OCo2yD
看來，我這個想法真的是太過天真呢！」543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkNYBPVlC8V
543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK3CYo5D916
希叔突然之間彈出的這一句話，可謂完全令畢時摸不著頭腦起來。543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcesxdcQpLX
到底有甚麼事值得他昂聲大笑呢？站立蛋很失禮他嗎？還有的是，何以無緣無故間又會提起間時此人？543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs0aqSHfTF7
543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBYmuLIbLfy
只不過，在眾多疑問之中，「默書」此字始終最為讓畢時感到疑惑及在意。543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ1QLcs88JA
「『默書』？希叔你在說甚麼呢？」543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpjQgOQsm7H
543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrzAt8IuKiM
「哦？『默書』喎，每一間分店只少有一本才是的，難道新城市分店沒有的嗎？」543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4vy47CuRaE
希叔拿出早前收藏在櫃底暗角的「默書」，啪一聲的放在檯前。543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4RrwVzTMBc
543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡliQ7pX31Re
默書是一本接近超過三百頁的百科全書，堪稱為默記的萬用聖典，小至薯條的平均長闊高度，大至清潔桌面推薦用的洗潔精牌子均一一能夠在書中找到；543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWNtNRDyvmi
若然分店真的是遵從默書的全部指引實行起來的話，那麼理論上地球上每一間分店的菜式味道也應該會是一模一樣的。543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFK9HpyAGyA
543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxgwDFyYpaT
「『默書』嘛......我真的倒是不覺眼在新城市分店看得到，可能他們把它收藏在一旁。543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5no8x385yS
只不過這本書甚至比一本聖經還要厚，真的有人會花時間看畢所有頁數嗎？」543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbVyqXOMGUL
畢時隨手翻開數頁，只見裡頭全是密密麻麻的文字，偶有一兩張黑白照片插在段落裡頭。543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKMdXSU8Xcm
543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAlbI7lbBH7
「好說了！我可是足足看過裡頭的所有內容超過三次以上呢！」543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuxfaxxBpWd
希叔當年為了爭取表現上位，的而且確花下了一段頗長的時間作苦心研讀，某數頁的內容更是純熟至倒背如流的境界。543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDDV8uaqxkN
543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv3CXW4yDCP
「這麼厲害？那我考一考希叔你，默樂雞的烹調指引又是在哪一頁呢？」543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9dg0lfabvj
畢時此道問題顯然是機心十足，藉考驗希叔之詞來方便自己。543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs5hZ2H16BM
543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6dloyfqWqN
「好說了，就在43頁。」543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB1p84pyQ67
希叔輕哼了一聲，一臉自豪道，絲毫不察覺剛剛被畢時利用了一道。543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyetPrllyC7
543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp4xI1nxAAw
翻到第43頁後，畢時即時用上手提電腦拍下該頁的內容，以便作日後的參考。543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ77GEnDYNw
他日有機會的話，對比一下陳平是否依照著『默書』記載的手法烹調默樂雞也好，畢時是這樣的做出打算。543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ725ehcCnkC
543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqnV98EFUYO
543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD2WIP1ELBC
叮噹！543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw512Ha9Sn5
543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj9QEJBv0rU
此際，後門傳來了一道響亮的鈴聲。543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnhB5wJlFFi
543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb4Hc3Nd30v
「唔，應該是今天的來貨送到來了！畢時你跟我一同去收取貨物吧！」543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1onZmCK34X
希叔看了手上的勞力士手錶一眼，剛好正正就是平日送貨的時間，因而囑咐畢時跟在其後充當一下勞力搬運工。543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1izs2Z6xk0
543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjUuaTcBmtU
「你有沒有聽說過，新城市廣場分店總是能夠取得一批品質較為上乘的魚柳這個說法呢？」543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYMRNWsidXa
前往後門的中途，希叔對畢時作出打探，試圖查看一下能否從畢時的口中取得額外的資訊。543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCTz3rLcRJR
543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs9fb1YBaJ9
「是嗎？可能我還是新人的關係，對於店內的資訊還是不太掌握呢！543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjLZGG148QY
只不過，魚柳放到油裡深炸之後最終也只會變成空有個脆字的炸魚一件，多上乘的魚柳最終也只會糟蹋了。」543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMhcspNSAv3
畢時當然能夠嗅出希叔試圖向自己打探的氣味，但事實在他真的是對新城市廣場分店的事情一無所知，就算真的是想幫忙的話也愛莫能助。543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtfhUraEGjf
543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdIwNfGx3Xm
「唔......或許吧！」543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBipUi8AVh2
希叔並不太贊同畢時的說法，但沒有閒情逸致作出糾正。543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡghrsD3mUR3
543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡETeO4GR7LO
啪！543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡur2AYPurXh
543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtuzQf9F76w
「希叔，貨到，簽收！」543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaWDwKY2N5X
後門打開後，一名穿著白色李彩華牌背心的中年男人手推卡車拖著一大堆貨物，半睡半醒地把一大堆收據塞到希叔手中。543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8D07F3y6Lo
543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKAS5gfRGG8
眼角銳利的畢時察覺得到，手推車的貨物大致分成為兩批，一批貼上藍色「希爾頓分店」標籤，另一批則貼上黃色「新城市廣場分店」標籤。543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhjufrdvX91
543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNkif4f5tlo
「希叔，不如我們先測試一下雞蛋的品質，然後才作決定簽不簽收吧！」543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZOSTxeACfG
畢時心裡生起了一個極為狡猾的打算。543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡujQOpNFbL8
543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmYxrRq1XFb
「也好！你去拿一個大膠盤過來吧！」543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwTrcUKftZE
希叔點頭示好，著畢時速去速回。543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlm9beZSRFj

畢時急步返回廚房裡頭，暗中把一大堆幼鹽撒在膠盤之上，再以急步跑回至後門裡頭。543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZRPnez8otR
