Back to 90s she just wants to get rich

Chapter 268 267. I Like This

After lunch the next day, Xiang Jin had nothing to do, so she went to clean up her oven, and then lit firewood in the lower hole of the oven to preheat the oven, and then she took flour and The butter came out to try to make some snacks.

When Xiang Lan saw her, she hurriedly jumped in front of her and asked, "Sister, are you going to make some strange food again? Is there anything I need to help with?"

Looking at the little girl's excited and expectant eyes, Xiang Jin smiled and said, "You are active in this regard, let alone, there are really, so you go and get me a few eggs first, and then peel some eggs." The fried peanuts, some sunflower seeds and walnuts, and bring me some orange peel."

"Oh oh oh, good," the little girl turned and went, but after two steps she turned sideways and asked, "How many eggs do you want?"

Xiang Jin said, "Take ten."

"Ten? So many?" The little girl was surprised.

Xiang Jin asked, "Do you want some fresh food?"

"Oh, oh, yes, I'll go get it right away, but there are so many eggs missing all of a sudden, Mom will definitely ask when the time comes," the little girl hurriedly said.

Xiang Jin said, "It's just a few eggs, what's the question? Could it be that with our family's current living standard, I can't use as many eggs as I want?"

"Oh fine!"

After the little girl left, Xiang Jin scooped out a few pieces of ghee from the jar, and then made some homemade soup powder, and then brought her the orange-flavored drink powder that Manager Huang had given her and Yan Chen the day before yesterday. Take a few spoonfuls of each of the cans of milk powder, and then mix the two kinds of powder with the flour and stir well.

Since there was no custard powder here, Xiang Jin added a little old flour and mixed it in.

Then she poured some boiling water into the slightly larger basin, and then put the small basin containing ghee into the large basin filled with boiling water to let it soften naturally.

After it softened, she stuffed the meat with white sugar powder, and then started to send it in one direction with chopsticks.

"Sister, the eggs are here!"

Xiang Jin motioned for her to put the egg down, and then continued with the movements in her hands. After the little girl stood there watching for a while, she felt bored and ran away to do what her sister had told her to do.

After Xiang Jin fully blended the cream and sugar, he washed two eggs and continued to beat them.

After beating for a while, she felt that it was almost done, and then added the previously mixed flour to the mixed solution little by little, then mixed them well, and kneaded them into a smooth creamy dough.

Then she divided the small dough into several equal parts, and then used a rolling pin to roll it into dough sheets about two or three millimeters thick, and then she brushed a thin layer of egg yolk liquid on the dough, and then Take a toothpick and poke some irregular holes in it.

Since they didn't have a pastry mold at home, she found a wine bottle cap and pressed them into small circles of equal size.

In the end, she neatly placed the small circles in the stainless steel baking pans she bought before and put them aside for later use.

Immediately afterwards, she went to check the preheating status of the oven, and found that the bluestone slab was thoroughly heated, and the entire oven was warm. After that, Xiang Jin put the baking trays into the oven one by one, and then Close the door and let them bake freely inside.

Since this is not an electric oven, the entire oven can reach the temperature you want at 360 degrees without any dead angle. It may take only a quarter of an hour to bake this kind of biscuit, but this is a wood stove oven, so it takes time Probably more.

Finally, through Xiang Jin's continuous observation, it would take about 35 minutes to bake this small biscuit until the surface is golden brown.

Xiang Jin carefully shoveled the baking trays out of the oven with a thin, wide strip of bamboo, then picked up a small biscuit and tasted it.

Well, it's slightly sweet, with a milky, fruity orange flavor. It's really crispy, but it seems a bit dry, especially the part below the baking pan, which is still a little hard to bite.

It seems that those 35 minutes are still a bit too much, and these few games are considered unsuccessful works.

Xiang Jin decided to do it again, but before doing it, she had to see how the peanuts and walnuts at Xiang Lan's place were doing. Who knew that when she was there, the little girl was peeling and eating them there, and she immediately panicked. Speechlessly rolling her eyes, she walked over and unfriendlyly threw the plate of biscuits in front of her.

Rebuked, "I'm full with this nut, don't you want to eat this biscuit?"

When the little girl saw that she had baked it, her eyes lit up immediately, she hurriedly put down the walnut she was peeling in her hand, and said pleasantly, "Sister, you've baked it, you actually did it, so fast?"

"I asked you to peel the peanuts and walnuts. You peeled them all afternoon, and you peeled them for me?" Looking at the few fried peanuts and walnuts scattered all over the bottom of the bowl, and the one on the ground under her feet, There were a lot of peanut shells and walnut shells, and Xiang Jin glared at her angrily.

Xiang Lan took a bite of a baked biscuit, and then said in a low voice, "How can I? I peeled a lot, okay, it's in the basket on the table behind, but I'm just now I’m hungry, and you haven’t asked me to taste it, I thought you would wait until the peanuts and walnuts were peeled before making them, so I only ate a few.”

Xiang Jin walked over, and sure enough, there were at least two bowls of peanuts, walnuts, and some sunflower seeds in the basket, but these were very few, but the peanuts were all peeled, probably because of the sunflower The seeds are not easy to peel, so the little girl didn't peel them much.

The anger in Xiang Jin's heart subsided, and she walked over with the basket, "You have a conscience! Is it delicious?"

The little girl nodded vigorously, "Yeah, it's delicious, it's delicious, it's crispy, very fragrant, it tastes like milk and orange, it's better than any snack with pasta I've ever eaten They are all delicious, but the cat's ears and the fruit are not as good as it, sister, I like it!"

Xiang Jin then asked again, "Then what do you think?"

The little girl shook her head vigorously, "Don't do it! I think it's pretty good. Besides, if it's considered a job, why don't you just drink some water."

Xiang Jin said in his heart: You are really not picky!

Immediately she said, "Eat a little less, it's easy to get angry if you eat too much."

"Yeah, I know!" The little girl nodded obediently, but her mouth was not idle.

Xiang Jin left with the basket in hand.

Later, she crushed the peanuts, walnuts, and sunflower seeds, and then added some white sesame seeds, mixed with some crushed rock sugar, and cut some Chen Ping and put them in, and a little Mix some white sugar powder inside, wrap it with dough, form a round shape, and bake some five-nut mooncakes.

In the evening, she asked her mother and grandpa to taste it, and they both said it was delicious, just as delicious as the ones bought outside during the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Xiang Jin said, "Then bring some to my aunt and uncle tomorrow, and let them bring some back to my grandmother, Yang Hui and Yang Zhao, and let them taste it too."

Her mother just nodded "hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm', and then asked, "Is this baked in that oven of yours?"

Xiang Jin nodded, "Yes!"

"Mom, let me tell you, this kind of baked pancake is easier to preserve than the fried fruit that my uncle and the others fried, even if it is stored for a few days in the first summer.

And it doesn’t cost much oil, I thought about it, when the time comes, I might as well ask my uncles to stop the fruit row and sell the baked pancakes and biscuits instead. They don’t have to worry about no business even if they sell them all year round, and that Fruit Bar doesn't have much technical content, and it can be easily imitated.

At that time, their main business is selling meat buns and fried rice noodles, and selling baked biscuits and moon cakes. At that time, I will draw a few patterns and ask them to find someone to make a few molds. Biscuits and moon cakes are made according to the above style, I believe many people will like it. "

Her mother said, "Then I will tell your uncle and aunt tomorrow."

Xiang Jin nodded, "To make this kind of biscuit, ghee and several other materials are used in it, but none of them are hard to find."

"it is good!"

After breakfast the next day, Yan Chen came to invite them to eat hot pot at their house in the evening.

Xiang Jin was baking biscuits at the time, she held up the plate for him to taste, "Why are you eating hot pot again?"

Yan Chen picked up a biscuit and said, "Today, Uncle Duoji and Uncle Zheng Gang stir-fried the ingredients according to the method you taught them. I'll ask you to eat it and judge."

Xiang Jin nodded, "Okay! Then let's go at night! Oh, you should try it, and give me a judge and give me some opinions after you taste it."

Yan Chen looked at the biscuit in his hand and laughed, "Why are you obsessed with making this again?"

Xiang Jin said, "I thought of it from the two cups of ghee that Uncle Duoji gave me. I think it would be delicious to use this ghee to make pancakes."

Yan Chen said, "The purpose of the butter he brought you is for you to make butter tea and eat it with tsampa. Have you tried the tsampa?"

Xiang Jin shook his head, "Not yet."

"You can try it, it tastes good!" Yan Chen picked up the biscuit and took a bite.

Xiang Jin stared at him, waiting for his answer.

After a while, Yan Chen said, "Not bad, it's crispy and delicious, it melts in your mouth, it's sweet and sweet, not greasy or dry!"

"really?!"

"nature!"

"Okay, then you can take some back later, and let them taste it by the way. Oh, yes, you can go back later. I made mooncakes and are baking them. You can try them later."

Yan Chen said, "This is not the Mid-Autumn Festival, why are you still making mooncakes?"

Xiang Jin said, "Who said that mooncakes can only be eaten during the Mid-Autumn Festival? The so-called mooncakes are pancakes that can be eaten every month."

Yan Chen laughed again, "Excessive words!" Then he sat down on the empty stool beside him.

Xiang Jin took the bag to fill him with biscuits, and after a while she packed two bags and put them in front of him, "This bag is slightly sweet, the one you tasted just now, this one The bag cloth is salt and pepper flavored, with a little bit of numbness and spiciness, and a little MSG in it, see if you like it."

Yan Chen opened the bag and tasted a piece, "Well, it's okay!"

"I'm sure you like it, isn't it to comfort me?!" Xiang Jin stared at him and said.

Yan Chen said, "I don't like sweets, you know that."

Xiang Jin nodded, "You know? You don't like sweets, but you don't necessarily like this salt and pepper flavor?"

Yan Chen stared at her and picked up the bag of salt and pepper biscuits and said seriously, "This, I like it very much!"

"Then I'll dress you up again?"

"No, that's enough!"

Xiang Jin nodded, "That's fine, it's best to store this in a sealed jar or bag, otherwise it will be easily damp."

"Ok!"

"Oh, when are they going back?" Xiang Jin then changed the subject.

Yan Chen said, "Tomorrow!"

"Tomorrow?! Well, isn't that the sixteenth day of the first lunar month? Tomorrow we also start school," Xiang Jin thought, then suddenly thought of it.

Yan Chen nodded, "Well, they will leave after breakfast tomorrow morning!"

Xiang Jin said, "Oh, no, no, I'll do more, and then I'll bring some to each of them. Alas, they all came to the provincial capital alone, or did they bring some? family?"

Yan Chen said, "Uncle Zheng brought his son with his parents, and his parents will work in our field later.

Uncle Duoji took his wife and children with him, and his wife will also help in our store later. "

Xiang Jin nodded, "Have you seen them? How are they?"

Yan Chen nodded, "I've met them once, and at first understanding, they are all simple, kind and honest, but Uncle Tao said that they are all honest and responsible people!"

Xiang Jin nodded, "Then they also signed the employment contract?"

Yan Chen nodded, "Well, they've all signed, and they all signed ten-year contracts!"

Suddenly, Xiang Jin thought of a question, "Oh, Uncle Zheng, why did he only bring his children and parents, and why didn't he bring his wife?"

Yan Chen said, "I heard that his wife died of illness when his child was three years old."

"Dead?" Xiang Jin was surprised.

Yan Chen nodded, "Well, I heard that when their family was building a house, they were stabbed by a rusty nail. At that time, they didn't pay much attention to it. Later, they got tetanus and died."

Xiang Jin sighed, "What a pity!"

Yan Chen nodded, "Well, it's really regrettable, and then Uncle Zheng felt sorry for his wife, so he never remarried after he retired."

Xiang Jin nodded, and then asked, "How old are the children of Uncle Zheng's family and Uncle Duoji's family?"

Yan Chen said, "The child of Uncle Zheng's family may be as old as your youngest cousin, and the child of Uncle Duoji's family is about the same age as Xiang Lan."

"Oh, it's not that big!"

"Well! They all plan to study here."

Xiang Jin nodded, "Okay, then, if they are all serious and responsible, we will pay for each of them to buy a house in the provincial capital."

Yan Chen was surprised, "Are you sure?!"

Xiang Jin nodded, "Ah, I'm sure, it shouldn't be very expensive to buy a house in the provincial capital now, right? It's the one a little further away."

Yan Chen said, "It's the kind of small farmyard, about 4 square meters, it may cost 500 to 2000 yuan, and the house in the urban area currently ranges from [-] yuan to [-] yuan per square meter. price."

Xiang Jin said, "The key is to have a good character. If the character is not good, then forget it." A house is worth [-] to [-] yuan, and in a few years, the house will cost several million.

Yan Chen smiled and said, "Are you trying to buy people's hearts? Then let them follow us wholeheartedly?"

Xiang Jin said, "Of course, we still need to cultivate some trustworthy people after all. To be honest, I still want to open a stewed meat shop in the provincial capital. At that time, there must be trustworthy people. In charge, if it's the kind of obedience and defiance, it will definitely not work.

There is a saying in the art of war: If you want to take it, you must first give it, so we must first solve the worries of others, only in this way, they will do things for us wholeheartedly. "

Yan Chen nodded, "That's fine, that's it. I'll let Uncle Tao take care of it when I go back, let him buy five or six houses or rent them or put them there first, and don't tell them what the house is. It is prepared for them, if they perform well, it is not impossible for us to transfer the ownership to them in the future, if they do not perform well, we can forget about it.”

Xiang Jin said, "Okay! Then you have three sets, and I have three sets! I seem to owe you a lot of money again?!"

The last time I bought the land, there are still tens of thousands of yuan that have not been paid off. This time, the house payment for opening the hot pot restaurant, as well as the decoration expenses, and some cost management expenses were paid in advance by Yan Chen. Now she is buying three houses. I owe him another hundred thousand.

Yo, when will she pay off this debt?

In fact, she also has her own thoughts on how many flats she wants to rent, that is, in the future, there will be a sum of demolition compensation in it, and she can make a lot of money at that time.

Yan Chen smiled and said, "It's okay, pay it back slowly, I'm not in a hurry to spend the money." It's best to keep owing it all the time, so that the relationship between her and himself will have another layer of relationship. Everyone is involved in the same business, so the entanglement between the two of them will only increase, just like the ball of thread will become more and more entangled.

Xiang Jin nodded, "It can only be like this, but after all, you are really rich. You have bought so many lands and opened a hot pot restaurant, and now you still have money to buy a house."

Yan Chen teased, "Are you rich too?"

Xiang Jin rolled his eyes at him speechlessly, "Compared to you, that's just a drop in the bucket."

Yan Chen said, "After buying this house, I don't have much money, but I may not invest much in the near future, so take it easy."

Xiang Jin nodded, "I have to take my time too," he had to pay off his account first.

Following Xiang Jin, she looked at her watch, ah, 2 minutes had passed, so she hurriedly got up, then opened the wooden door of the oven, and then used the bamboo shovel beside her to carefully remove the baking trays from inside. Shoveled out.

Looking at the appearance, Xiang Jin said, "Fortunately, it hasn't been roasted yet!"

Yan Chen looked at the golden cake in front of him and said, "Is this moon cake?"

Xiang Jin nodded, "Don't look at it as ugly on the outside, but inside it is a genuine five-nut mooncake. The main reason for this is that I don't have a mold. If there is a mold, the baked mooncakes are guaranteed to be the same as those mooncakes made every year." During the Mid-Autumn Festival, the mooncakes sold outside are also pretty," Xiang Jin went to fetch a plate, and put one in it for him, "Try it?"

"Oh, it seems that you don't like sweets very much? It's okay. I'll find you a salt and pepper flavor. Wait a minute?" Xiang Jin took the mooncake out of the plate and put it on again. There is a salt and pepper flavor in it.

"Huh?" Xiang Jin signaled him to taste it quickly.

Yan Chen said, "I can't eat one."

"Then break it in half," Xiang Jin said, and put the other two baking trays filled with biscuit shapes into the oven.

Yan Chen really divided the mooncake into two, tasted half of it himself, and handed the other half to Xiang Jin.

Xiang Jin took it and started to eat it. After feeling it seriously, he said, "I eat it well, not spicy or spicy, what about yours?"

Yan Chen said, "My taste is just right."

Xiang Jin immediately smiled and narrowed his eyes, and hurriedly took the plate in his hand and filled it for him, filling half of each of the two flavors, and then found a basket with a lid, and put all kinds of food in it. Install it in there.

Yan Chen knew that she was still busy with work, so she stood up from her seat, picked up the basket and went back.

As soon as he left, Xiang Jin hurried to the main house and asked Xiang Lan to peel some fried peanuts, walnuts and sunflower seeds.

"Ah? Why are you still peeling?" Xiang Lan was a little unhappy.

Xiang Jin said, "I heard that Uncle Mingtao and the others are going back. Then Uncle Zheng Gang and Uncle Duoji have children in their family. We ate so much food from them. Shouldn't we give something in return?"

"Oh," the little girl stopped being stubborn.

Xiang Jin and her grandfather nodded and said, "I really should give someone a gift in return," and after he finished speaking, he walked over to strip with Xiang Lan.

Xiang Jin said, "Peel more, I'll bring some to school tomorrow."

"Oh!"

Then Xiang Jin took a few dozen more eggs, and then made preparations.

At five or six o'clock in the afternoon, when Xiang Jin and the others went to Grandma Mo's house for dinner, Xiang Jin asked Uncle Duoji, "Uncle Duoji, how is life in your hometown, tell me about it?"

Uncle Duoji smiled and said, "The life in our hometown is different from yours. We live by herding. Our family raises sheep and yaks, and some people also raise Tibetan pigs."

"Then how many sheep, yaks, and Tibetan pigs did your family raise before?"

Uncle Duoji said, "Our family doesn't have many livestock. We only raise a dozen sheep and a few yaks. We don't have Tibetan pigs. My elder brother and his family do."

"Oh, the Danba pork leg you gave us is still sold outside?"

"No, although our family didn't raise Tibetan pigs, my elder brother's family raised seven or eight. Later, they gave away two to our family, and our family also gave away two sheep to their family."

"Oh, equal to replacement?"

"Yes, yes, replacement! Many people in our area are like that. We exchange what we have at home for what others have, but we don't have what we have at home."

Xiang Jin nodded, "Did you make the butter you gave us?"

"Yes, my wife and my sister-in-law fought. How is it? Are you still used to it?" Uncle Duoji asked afterward.

Xiang Jin nodded, "I'm used to it, it's delicious, and the tsampa is also delicious, thank you Uncle Duoji."

Uncle Duoji laughed heartily immediately, "Just get used to it. Many people are not used to our Tibetan food."

Xiang Jin said, "I'm not picky, I think every place has its own food specialties, all of which are worth tasting, just like the purple eggplant and vermicelli that Uncle Zheng Gang and his team have in Dongchuan. Their garlic tastes different from other places."

Uncle Zheng Gang was also laughing, saying that the garlic and eggplants from them were often sold to other provinces, and this time they came to the provincial capital and brought some vegetable seeds from them.

Xiang Jin said, "It's a good feeling. The eggplants here are all green and white. There are no such purple eggplants yet." She felt that their gift had been taken to their hearts. Have a heart.

Then she asked Uncle Duoji again, "Uncle Duoji, do you sell that butter in your house?"

Uncle Duoji asked, "Why, you like our ghee very much? Hey, you like it. I'll ask my family to mail you a few more jars. Why buy it?"

Xiang Jin said, "Uncle Duoji, I don't just want a little, I want a lot, and I may use it all year round, and I don't use it at home. Have you tried the biscuits and mooncakes that Yan Chen brought back at that time?" ? I added ghee to it.”

Uncle Zheng Gang and Uncle Duoji nodded, saying that they had tasted them all, and they were delicious and sweet, just like the biscuits bought outside.

Xiang Jin explained to them, "I want to buy it from you for my uncle and aunt. They opened a restaurant in the town. At present, they mainly sell meat buns, fried rice noodles, and steamed dumplings. , sell some fried noodles and so on, but I want them to change the fried noodles to scones and biscuits later, but if you want to make biscuits and scones like mine, you need to use Your ghee."

Uncle Duoji nodded, "Understood, I understand, but how much do I want, I'll ask my family to send it to you?"

Xiang Jin said, "Uncle Duoji, you can't say that. They use it for business and sell money, so how can you ask you to give it away for free? Besides, it takes time, energy and physical strength for you to make butter, so this must be used." Money is with you to buy, we are talking about business now, not favors, you just tell me how you sell at this price, of course, the transportation cost among you must also be taken into consideration."

Uncle Zheng Gang and Uncle Duoji saw that she was so fair and just in dealing with things and did not take advantage of others, so their affection for her inevitably increased gradually.

Uncle Duoji said, "But I have to ask my elder brother about this, after all, they are the ones who will supply the food in the future."

Xiang Jin nodded, "No hurry, I also want to say hello to my uncle and aunt."

Uncle Duoji said, "You made an appointment for your uncle and aunt, will they agree?"

Uncle Zheng Gang also looked at her suspiciously.

Grandma Mo smiled and said, "Well, don't worry about it, the business of Xiang Jin's family and her uncle's family is all supported by girl Jin, and they will not object to her opinion. .”

The two were amazed, and at the same time, there was a look of admiration in their eyes.

They knew that Yan Chen was powerful, but they didn't expect this girl to be so powerful at such a young age.

Xiang Jin waved his hand, "It's nothing, I just gave them a few ideas for making a living."
