Villager of Daming

Chapter 216
As soon as the shopkeeper Xu introduced it, the customers around him were very speechless.

"I don't blame shopkeeper Xu. Fuhualou's food is delicious, but the box lunch they sell is even better." Someone helped to speak.

The one surnamed Liu looked helpless, and he also admitted that he had praised this dish to the people at the same table before.

"Only this one dish?" asked the one surnamed Fang.

Shopkeeper Xu pointed to the side: "Stir-fried shredded pork with fennel, these three belong to them."

"Try it, let's try it." People who bought it are willing to share it with others, and eat the same dish that other people have.

Several people tasted it back and forth, and finally came to the conclusion that the fried shredded pork with fennel made by the box lunch seller is more fragrant and fresh, and the shredded pork is tender.

Shopkeeper Xu naturally followed suit, and he continued to sigh.

"Shopkeeper Xu, we're not saying that the food in your restaurant is not good, but someone ordered the same dish and ate the boxed lunch next to it. I always feel that it's a loss."

When a guest told the truth, others nodded and admitted that it was so.

"Why don't shopkeeper Xu increase the price of the side dishes, and spend more if you want to eat."

"No, who is short of that money? How much can you add?"

"Master Xu, go and ask others how they do it, if you learn it, you'll be fine!"

"Can this skill be taught? Anyway, I will, but I won't tell."

Shopkeeper Xu smiled when he heard the back: "Okay, I'll go ask, Brother Liu, I'll give you a bottle of beer."

After finishing speaking, he ran downstairs, stepped over the small fence, and complained to the Lichang who was staying in the kitchen: "Zhu Lichang, the guests have tasted it, and the two dishes you made are better than my Fuhualou. How do you do it?" of?"

"Shopkeeper Xu, how did you do it?" the chief was puzzled.

"Stir-fried kale, put oil, garlic, stir-fried kale, salt, rice wine, and sugar that other restaurants don't know. Sugar can enhance the freshness."

Shopkeeper Xu spoke to the back, lowering his voice, the secret of Fuhualou.

"What kind of oil did you put in?" the chief asked again.

"Soybean oil!"

"We put lard and oyster sauce, as well as sugar, as well as broth and cooking wine." The chief understood.

"My God! How about fried shredded pork with fennel? Yours is so tender and fresh."

"Choose tenderloin, the tenderloin is tender, put oyster sauce and cooking wine."

"Oh! It turns out that tenderloin is the choice of meat. What are oyster sauce and cooking wine?"

"Oysters, also called oysters, are boiled oil and broth made from pork bones and chicken. I'll take them back for you, and you'll use them first. Don't put oyster sauce in meat dishes, but put them in vegetarian dishes.

Cooking wine is made with rice wine as the base wine and then added with some seasonings, which is better than rice wine alone. "

"Thank you!" Shopkeeper Xu finally breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time admitted that Xiaqiu Village is better than Fuhualou.

People from Xiaqiu Village helped to deliver lard, oyster sauce, broth, and cooking wine, but the tenderloin was not used.

The back kitchen of Fuhua Building learns how to put and stir-fry, and taste it again. It really tastes like this, and the pressure is relieved.

Those who order these two dishes are equally satisfied, no matter who made it!Just taste the same.

Then shopkeeper Xu ran over from time to time to ask if there were other dishes, and the ones from Xiaqiu Village were still better than the ones from Fuhualou.

In the end, Hanhan proposed to make one of the uncooked dishes, send them over for comparison, and come and ask about the different ones.

The Fuhua Building was busy until Kuaizi, when the guests finally left satisfied.

Shopkeeper Xu, his buddies, and the people in the back kitchen didn't clean up the tables, and just went to rest.

Xiaqiu Village took the time to prepare the side dishes for tomorrow's breakfast, fried the flatbread, put it together and covered it, and soaked the rice.

……

On the second day of the twelfth lunar month, early in the morning, shopkeeper Xu asked the guys to clean up the mess. He washed his face and entered the Danqing Box Restaurant through the main entrance.

"Shopkeeper Xu, your eyes... dip a towel in hot water and cover it. If it doesn't work, we have ice here, and wrap it in a towel for cold compresses. If you can't sleep well at night, order some soothing incense, and I will give you a box."

Seeing shopkeeper Xu's dark circles, the chief smiled and offered his advice.

"Just use ice! I'll go back..."

"No, I'll give you a new hand towel." The head of the village waved his hand, and took shopkeeper Xu to get things, and then sat down to eat. The craftsmen and hired workers also came to pick up the meals, the porridge made by the children, and the pancakes.

"Zhu Lichang, thank you for teaching how to cook yesterday. This is nothing to repay. I plan to buy cooking wine, broth, and oyster sauce for a long time."

Shopkeeper Xu put down his towel and discussed with the chief. He didn't know how to make oyster sauce, what ingredients to add to the cooking wine, and how to add them.

He is very grateful for Xiaqiu Village's 'life-saving grace', otherwise they would open a restaurant nearby...

"It's easy to say, but the soup is not very good. Trouble, don't put broth in all dishes. You have to boil the leftover broth twice a day."

The head of the village agreed, not to discuss the price, but to get as much as the other party offered.

Shopkeeper Xu finished his breakfast satisfactorily, covered his eyes with a towel in turn and went back.

People from Xiaqiu Village came to deliver food from the wharf again, along with two boats of fish, this time six boats.

Make lunch boxes at noon, the children participate, and give a copy to the students who live in the library in poor conditions.

"It's cold, so I can't eat food without oil and water!" said the chief.He was actually wondering if the library could recruit a son-in-law.

……

"Chen Yan, bring someone over to get the meal." In the library, Chen Yan was holding half a dry steamed bun in his hand, and was about to have lunch with boiling water, when someone shouted outside.

"Here we come." He responded by pulling his neck, and the person from the same Chase Shop immediately stood up.

They still relish the bowl of soup yesterday morning.

260 people came out, there were more than 200 before, and some were added later, and the rich disdain to be with them.

They saw big barrels and a group of children, as well as a box of restaurant plates, one by one, dug out of wood, unlike the previous trays with bowls.

But this one also has a separate bamboo tube, which is used as a tool for drinking soup, and there is a place on the dinner plate to put the bamboo tube.

Chen Yan stood in front of the line, took a plate first, and ordered meals in order.

First, there is a large box of steaming rice, followed by a medium box of trembling braised pork, then a small box of fried dried eggplant with mashed garlic, a small box of dried cowpea and soybeans, and finally a box of mustard greens and pickled vegetables, and a bamboo tube of shredded radish soup.

He swallowed and bowed slightly: "Thank you!"

"You're welcome." The child who scooped up the soup responded with a smile, and then scooped up the soup for the next one.

Other scholars also thanked different children from the bottom of their hearts.

Until one person took the plate and asked what many people wanted to ask: "Why do you treat us so well?"

Everyone else stopped to look at the children of Xiaqiu Village together.

The children watch Brother Hanhan together, do you want to answer?
Just as Zhu Wentian was about to give an answer in a way that fits the human design, someone outside suddenly shouted: "The holy god bestowed the word Xiaqiu Village Danqing Library, where is the head of Xiaqiu Village?"

"I'll go find it." The little girl yelled, put down the spoon for beating the braised pork, turned around and ran away, followed by two boys and a guard of the Prince's Mansion.

The students looked at each other in blank dismay, the Holy Majesty bestowed words on this library?

　This is also yesterday.
