Food: How come this boss knows everything?

Chapter 163: Let's have some vegetarian food today. Changes in Xingfuli Vegetable Market
Late at night, the system settles:
A new stage achievement [Popularity Upgrade], Li Ruijianghai Bank’s account received a simple cash reward.

And new braised dishes unlocked - vegetarian dishes.

There were a wide variety of vegetarian dishes, and there was no need to order meat from Lao Jin in advance, so Li Rui fell asleep with peace of mind.

At the same time, the entrance of Xingfuli Vegetable Market in Jianghai City, which should have been dormant, was very busy.

The contractor was directing the workers to work overtime:
"Make sure these manhole covers are fixed tonight."

"The money has been transferred, so don't worry."

The workers have become accustomed to working overtime during people's rest time.

Different occupations have different work characteristics.

What they care more about is whether they get paid.

Since the municipal government said the money has been allocated, everyone is very excited.

"Why is it so easy to give money this time?"

"I don't know what's going on. It's already been delayed for a long time."

The contractor explained: "This place is very popular. There is a braised food seller. Many old people come here to buy. There are also many people from other places. 12345 received several calls overnight saying that there was a traffic jam. The higher-ups decided to complete the project as soon as possible."

After listening to the contractor's words, the worker Lao Liu looked around and saw people painting the walls overnight and repairing the street lights.
He has rich experience in construction sites.

I feel that things are not simple.

Just as Lao Liu guessed, in the Jianghai Municipal Government compound, many departments were holding meetings overnight to discuss the current situation.

Jiang Hai, who attaches great importance to public opinion, of course finds that the current popularity is extraordinary.

"Railway ticketing shows that this weekend, the number of passengers planning to travel to Jianghai by high-speed rail and train is far higher than usual, more than double the same period last year."

"The popularity of Jianghai braised meat is still rising on the Internet."

The leader in charge of the work listened to the report.

Compared with the popularity on the Internet, he pays more attention to the food hygiene of this braised meat shop. It doesn’t matter if it can’t keep up with the popularity, but the most important thing is not to cause any food safety issues while the popularity is high.

"Comrades from the market supervision department, do you know the specific situation of this braised pork stall?"

Pang Bo, who came to the meeting with the director, replied:

"The braised meat stall has a business store in Fangda Plaza, with complete licenses and certificates. Its food hygiene was once a benchmark for the fried chicken industry in Jianghai City." (The barbecue is also very delicious.)
"Such a coincidence?" The leader was a little confused.

Pangbo took out the video and played a small clip of it on the big screen.

The video is short and covers the usage of oil and ingredients, as well as the hygiene of the store.

People whispered, "It's cleaner than the government cafeteria."

"I even ate a bug in the cafeteria last time."

"It's late at night, and this fried chicken makes me hungry."

The leader was also very satisfied after reading it, and then concluded:
"We must keep up with the publicity and introduce the various tourist attractions in Jianghai City."

“Other departments fully cooperated.”

"Meeting dismissed."

People from various departments gradually left.

The big boss also instructed Pang Bo: "Contact the young boss. We must provide good service attitude and smile to make the foreign tourists feel at home. If he has any difficulties, try to help him solve them."

Early the next morning,
Fonda Plaza shop.

Li Rui bought various vegetarian dishes from the vegetable market and came over to prepare them.

Cut the bean curd skin and kelp into long strips and tie them into beautiful knots.

After soaking, cut the bean curd sheets into small pieces.

Wash the broccoli and cut into small florets.

Wash the mushrooms and cut them into cross shapes.

The lotus root already has holes in it, so there is no need to use a knife to carve or dig holes. You can just slice it directly, which is very convenient.

Although vegetarian dishes take a short time to braise, they cannot be put directly into the braising pot.

Lotus root slices, potato slices, etc. have high starch content, which can easily cause the brine to deteriorate.

Moreover, the brine used for marinating meat has a stronger salty taste.

Directly halogenated vegetables will be too salty.

The addition of vegetarian dishes such as shiitake mushrooms and enoki mushrooms will also bring a variety of flavors to the pot, affecting the freshness and fragrance of the braised meat.

Li Rui started another pot, took out the brine from the braising pot, and added an equal amount of broth.

Unlike the soft and tender braised meat, some vegetarian dishes require a crispy texture.

Therefore, put the vegetables into the pot one by one according to the order in which the ingredients are cooked.

After the vegetables are cooked, leave them in a large pot to soak in flavor, then remove them and let them cool.

When selling, just drizzle the marinade oil and chili oil on it.

The preparation of braised meat is still the same as the previous few days.

It also takes time to simmer and flavor.

But there were quite a few people in the shop today, visiting and checking in outside.

It seems that people have understood the boss's business model.

"This boss is so interesting and knows a lot."

"It's not ready yet."

"There were so many people yesterday, I don't know what the situation will be like today."

"Walk around Jianghai City during the day, and then queue up to buy braised meat at night."

Not many customers came in to inquire, but a staff member from the Market Supervision Bureau came over.

Both of them were acquaintances, and they explained some things.

He also said that he wanted to try the braised pork in the evening.

Li Rui also realized that there were a lot of customers this time, so he had to open a temporary braised meat company to prepare the ingredients specifically for this period of time.

So he promptly posted the recipes of his own broth, braised meat, and cooking time on his video account.

Video title: "If you want to eat it, you can also try it yourself at home."

The video content is completely dry without any moisture.

Even the ending is filled with all kinds of condiments.

Netizens have left messages:

"Boss Li, why don't you post a link to the marinade?"

"Take all the dry goods, and you will make money if you open a shop."

"I really want to sell braised meat for a few days, haha."

"So this is how braised meat is made. It doesn't look complicated at all."

The sky seemed to be raining: "I really learned it this time. If there are any friends from other places coming over, I would like to invite you to have dinner at my house."

In the afternoon, Li Rui drove the stewed food cart.

Appeared in Xingfuli Vegetable Market.

The road outside the vegetable market has been free of several annoying fences, revealing a flat and wide road surface.

The wall next to the vegetable market was painted overnight and various promotional slogans were posted on it.

"The Xingfuli Vegetable Market has cheap vegetables, which are safe and healthy."

"Let us keep the world company, and eat till we are fat and plump."

Even the street lights seemed to have been wiped clean.

The brand new look made the surrounding residents very happy and unfamiliar.

The owner of the braised meat stall also looked a little unfamiliar.

There are many customers waiting in line.
But where is the place where I used to sell braised meat?

However, the market manager had already reserved a seat for Li Rui.

"Considering that people might not be able to find you in the stall inside, we have reserved a seat for you in the open air here."

"thank you."

"It's okay, it's this way." The staff pointed the way.

Li Rui stepped on the accelerator and drove up the small slope.

In addition to the space for his car, there were also many dining tables.

There are other stalls selling snacks on both sides.

On both sides of the table, diners were already seated, eagerly waiting.
