Rebirth Farmer Yaomei

Chapter 142 The Workshop
One hundred catties of mung beans can make about [-] to [-] catties of vermicelli, and there is no need to add other materials, plus labor, as long as the price of mung beans is three times the price, you will not lose money.Today, the market price is about five times that of mung beans, so it is still a lot of money.

The Ning family's first batch of mung bean vermicelli is ready, and it is natural to use mung bean vermicelli for cooking when celebrating.

Because Ning Wan was busy with business, she didn't cook for a while. Today she was very happy, so she cooked a lot of dishes with vermicelli. First, she served two cold dishes of cucumber mixed with vermicelli and egg skin mixed with vermicelli. Then she served ants climbing the tree and stir-fried Chinese cabbage with vermicelli. Two hot dishes, followed by stewed chicken vermicelli and eel vermicelli soup.

When the dishes were brought to the table, even Mr. Liu, who had been making vermicelli all his life, couldn't help sighing: "Miss Dongjia has such a clever idea! She can make so many dishes with vermicelli!"

In fact, the ingredients at home are not complete. Ning Wan can make at least ten dishes with vermicelli. After all, vermicelli is very strange. It can be stewed in the same pot with extremely cheap Chinese cabbage in the poorest farmhouse, but each has its own flavor.

For example, there are two cold mung bean noodles right now. One is cooked with the thinnest mung bean vermicelli and placed in a plate with thinly sliced ​​cucumber. Pile up a pinch of shredded shallots and minced garlic, sprinkle with salt and sugar, and mix it with seasoned vinegar. It is sour and sweet, very refreshing; while the other is spread with two-cent-wide vermicelli, and topped with It is fried golden and then cut into egg skins of the same width. There is also a handful of ground coriander, put in sesame paste, salt, and soy sauce, but it tastes fragrant, mellow, and strong.

Ants climbing the tree is actually stir-fried vermicelli with vermicelli. It has a common feature with fried vermicelli with Chinese cabbage, that is, the heat must be mastered. The vermicelli must be fried soft but not mushy. Ordinary dishes taste very delicious.

As for stewed vegetables with vermicelli, Ning Wan has always liked it the most. Stewed wide vermicelli and tender chicken can bring out the aroma of farm chicken to the fullest. The juice is all boiled into the powder, and the powder turns a bright reddish brown, which is more delicious than eel.

Everyone was full of praise after eating, "Chef Liu's noodles are really good! Wan'er's dishes are also well done!"

Mr. Liu took a sip of sorghum wine and a sip of noodles, then smiled and said: "The noodles are so strange, they have no taste at all, but they taste the same when they are cooked with something, even better than the original taste of that thing." Now Miss Dong’s dishes are well matched, cooking the taste into the vermicelli and highlighting the tenderness of the vermicelli, so even though they are all made of vermicelli, each dish still has its own characteristics!”

Ning Liang said "Oh", "Sure enough, Mr. Liu is right!"

Mrs. Yu laughed, "After all, I have been a fan all my life, and no one understands the benefits of this fan better than Mr. Liu!" He said and put the newly prepared dishes in front of Mr. Liu.

Ning Wan picked up the wine glass, "Although I cook this dish well, I can't make these dishes without Master Liu's good craftsmanship! So I will toast Master Liu first!"

Mr. Liu has been in the Ning family for more than half a year, and he has gotten along well with the Ning family for a long time. Now he said with a smile: "I am getting old, and I didn't plan to come out to do things anymore, but the shopkeeper of the Wangyuan Building told me that the Ning family is very happy." He is good, and he pays a lot of money. He strongly persuaded me to work in Dejufeng for another year. Now I have lived in Dejufeng for more than half a year. After this winter, I will hand over the method of making flour to Dahe. Let's go home and retire!" He drank the wine in his glass.

Seeing this, Ning Dahe quickly stood up and respected the master, and everyone laughed and laughed for a while.

After eating and drinking, Ning Wan served two staple foods, radish vermicelli buns and vermicelli soup. "Everyone has to work very hard to make vermicelli at night, so eat more. Eat more," so the weather is not too cold, and there is still It can't be frozen, so everyone just does some preparation work during the day, and makes flour at night.

"After all, it is Liaodong, and the vermicelli can be frozen at night, so it is not hard to make it before midnight. I was in Shandong before, and I have to make vermicelli in the middle of the night at this time." Master Liu took it with a smile. I ate a steamed bun stuffed with radish vermicelli. "I love radish vermicelli. It's not only delicious, but also nourishes the stomach."

The rest of the people were very interested in the vermicelli soup. Ning Wan made a few thin vermicelli into knots that were about the same size as the noodles in the soup and cooked them together in the ordinary soup. Green vegetables, black diced fungus, red sliced ​​mushrooms, yellow eggs, and white gnocchi are added with some translucent dough in the big bowl, which is very novel.

Yu asked, "Wan'er, how are these vermicelli made?"

Ordinary vermicelli are very brittle and easy to break, so of course they can't be tied into a knot, but Ning Wan has her own way, "Soak the vermicelli until it softens, and it's easy to tie it into the desired knot!"

The knotted vermicelli has both the umami taste in the noodle soup and the aroma of noodles, and it tastes chewy. Stone likes to eat it the most. He quickly ate all the vermicelli in the small bowl. I picked them out and gave them to him, and said: "Mother has also learned, and tomorrow I will tie a knot with vermicelli and make delicious food for you."

On the second day, the pork was stewed with vermicelli. The meat is braised in soy sauce and has a very strong taste, while the vermicelli is made of the widest vermicelli. It is stewed to the same color as the broth. It tastes extremely mellow, soft and elastic. , not only childish stones like it, but there is no one who doesn't love it.

Ning Wan stayed in the vermicelli workshop for more than ten days, and saw that Mr. Liu had a lot of experience in making vermicelli. He made hundreds of catties of vermicelli in an orderly manner every day in the workshop, and Ning Dahe was slowly able to make noodles under Mr. Liu. Under the guidance of the master, I did some more important things, so I let go of my heart and followed my father to Hutai County again.

Now when she goes to Hutai County, besides selling vermicelli, she also needs to look at the houses.

The vermicelli business is not bad. It was Mr. Liu introduced by the shopkeeper of Wangyuan Building to the Ning family. Naturally, he could trust Master Liu's ability. For dry noodles, some wet noodles are also required, that is, noodles that have been made but not frozen, because this kind of noodles tastes stronger and are very suitable for cooking, but they cannot be stored for a long time.

In addition, Wangyuanlou also needs some special noodles, such as rice noodles made of rice, soybean noodles made of peas, and even noodles made of sorghum.It was also the first time for Ning Wan to see so many strange noodles. The rice noodles made of rice are white and snowy, somewhat like noodles, but they are different from noodles. I heard that it is a food for entertaining distinguished guests in the south; The noodles are white and transparent, but not as chewy as mung bean noodles; as for the noodles made from sorghum, although the taste is slightly worse, the color is red, and it is very beautiful when placed on a plate...

In addition to Wangyuan Building, there are other restaurants that often supply goods on weekdays, plus the two shops of Ning's family, the finished vermicelli are delivered every day, Lin Lin always has a lot of income.

It's just that buying a shop in Hutai County has not been smooth.The dental clinics in the county were very diligent when they received the fixed money, and they would take them to every shop that was for sale, but Ning Wan looked at it for a month but didn't like half of it.

In recent years, the frontier fortress has been quiet, and Liaodong has become more and more prosperous. A small town like Mayi has accumulated hundreds of households and the streets are bustling, and a county like Hutai is even more lively.In the past, businesses were only conducted on the two main streets, east, west, north, and south. Now not only are there many merchants on the two main streets, but there are also many merchants on the secondary street separated by a row of houses. As for the small shops scattered throughout the county, I don't even know how many there are.

Shopkeeper Bi of Yaxing showed them the shops on the sub-street, or the small streets in the city. Compared with the big shops she managed when she was in Zhao's house, Ning Wan really didn't like them. After a few times, she said: " We won’t look at these small shops next time, even if the big shops on the secondary street are not near the Drum Tower on Shizi Street, we won’t look at them either, it’s best to help us find the shops on the main street.”

Shopkeeper Bi of the tooth shop smiled wryly and said: "Miss Ning! It's not that I didn't care. How can there be any shops on the main street that sell takeaways? As long as you do business on this street, no matter what you sell, you can make money! Now Even the shops on the secondary street are hard to find, and Miss Ning must go to the one near the Drum Tower, which is exactly the same as the main street!"

Ning Liang was familiar in the county town, so he actually spoke for shopkeeper Bi, "Wan'er, it's really hard to find a good shop these days, we must wait a little longer, or choose a shop on the next street first."

Why is Ning Wan not reconciled to Dejufeng's opening on the second street?No matter where people come from, the shops on the main street are the first thing they see when they arrive in Hutai County, the shops on the main street are the ones they believe in the most, and the shops on the main street are the ones they are most willing to spend money on.Dejufeng opened on the second street, and once it opened, it listed itself as a second-rate shop.Therefore, even if the facade is small, it is still better to be on the main street.

But without a shop, what can she do?In the end, I had to reluctantly agree, "Then I have to find a place on the street that is spacious and has a lot of traffic."

On this day, shopkeeper Bi specially sent a letter from the staff, saying that there was a particularly suitable shop, and asked them to go over to see it quickly, so Ning Liang hurriedly took his daughter and drove there in a mule cart.

When shopkeeper Bi saw them coming, his face was full of smiles, "Now there is a very rare and good shop, I am afraid that others will order it, so I hurried to find you." He hurriedly took them there to see, but on the way there was another shop. Tell them quietly, "No one is willing to sell such a good shop, but it just so happens that the shop that Mrs. Zhao Dianshi married her daughter to accompany her is no longer there, because his son-in-law is from Anpingwei, and he sold the money to Anpingwei to buy a new shop." Doing business. According to Mrs. Zhao, I have already taken a fancy to the new shop in Anpingwei, so the price for this shop is not high, so I just need to sell it quickly."

Ning Wan's heart moved, "Mrs. Zhao Dianshi sells the shop?"

"Yes, it belongs to Zhao Dian Shi's family in our county government," the shopkeeper Bi said again, "the position of his family's Dian Shi has been handed down for several generations. Not only the prestige, but also the family wealth has accumulated. Yes, where is there a shop! It was because of what I just said, that this shop was married to my daughter, and my son-in-law was in Anpingwei, so Mrs. Zhao sold it for her, which is a rare opportunity."
