Chapter 31

It's just that this year, for some reason, there are very few wild boars and wild wolves that can be hunted by nearby hunters, and the usual hares, pheasants, and even wild geese that he bought from other places at a high price have long been ordered. fresh.So he didn't just get worried, worrying about what he could find to show his face when the nobles from Zhoucheng passed by in a few days.

"The shopkeeper's Ann, it's not that something difficult happened at home, but a few days ago, I figured out something to eat, and I wanted to ask the shopkeeper to help the shopkeeper." Originally, Lin Baozhu was prepared to be treated coldly or ridiculed. After all, they didn't bring any difficult game this time, but they didn't think Shopkeeper Qin was easy to talk to.Immediately, she felt a lot more relaxed, especially when she saw Zhang Mandun's sure face standing beside her, she felt more confident.She took a step forward with a smile, lifted the blue cloth covering the basket swiftly, and said with a smile, "This is the vermicelli made by myself. With a little mixing, it can be made into a refreshing snack. It's not only appetizing but also delicious. good."

Shopkeeper Qin couldn't help being curious when he heard that there was something rare to eat, and then looked at the purple-black filamentous object that Lin Baozhu took out.But no matter how much he looked at it, he didn't see how the object could be eaten.

Seeing the puzzled look on Shopkeeper Qin's face, Lin Baozhu smiled and said, "I wonder if I can borrow the stove from your shop, but I just want you to try a cup of tea."

Those who run a tavern are most afraid of outsiders entering the kitchen. You must know that the dishes and recipes in the restaurant can be seen in the kitchen at a glance. If anyone wants to steal or play tricks, it must be there first.But shopkeeper Qin thought for a while, and recruited a waiter to ask the master chef who was making signature dishes in the kitchen to stop for a while, and let the helper take a look at the new ingredients brought by Lin Baozhu.

Although she talked about being beautiful, Lin Baozhu, who also relied on her craftsmanship for her food, couldn't understand what the shopkeeper was thinking. She was just afraid of rumors about her craftsmanship.But she didn't care, she just smiled and waited by the side.And Zhang Mantun didn't say a word, just stood behind his wife like a stone sculpture.

After a while, the master chef let a few people pass by, and he was quite surprised to see Lin Baozhu, a little lady.After all, there are really very few women who dare to come to the tavern to sell food these days. He has been cooking for decades, and this is the first time he has met them.

Lin Baozhu didn't have time to pay attention to other people's scrutiny and curiosity. She was putting a small handful of fern root powder into the boiling water at the moment, and only took it out and drained it when she saw that the vermicelli had softened.Thinking that if it's just cold salad, although the taste is good, it may not be very attractive, so I simply burned chili oil and poured it on the vermicelli.

Fortunately, the restaurant has a complete range of condiments, including onion, ginger, garlic, oil, salt, sauce and vinegar, which adds a lot of flavor when mixed.No, it's just a cup of tea time, and she has already poured some sesame oil on it and closed it.

After tossing and tossing for a while, a plate of delicious and spicy side dishes is ready.In terms of appearance alone, the oily purple-black vermicelli accompanied by bright red peppers and emerald green coriander is very gratifying.Coupled with the tangy, spicy and sour taste, it whetted everyone's appetite before anyone could eat it.

At this time, the sky is already hot, why don't you have a meal with a cold dish that is hot, sour, fragrant but smooth?In fact, in normal times, everyone’s rarity may not be so strong, but after adding chili and coriander, the color contrast alone is enough to whet the appetite.

The shopkeeper Qin and the chef in charge of the spoon took a sip one after another, chewed a few times in their mouths, and felt that the taste was smooth and delicate.It is clearly a side dish that is smooth and fragrant, but after eating it, besides the spicy taste, it is also slightly sweet and fragrant.After a while, the two looked at each other, nodded in satisfaction, and looked at Lin Baozhu with more kindness.

Speaking of it, it's not that this noodle is some kind of delicious side dish, but compared to the side dishes that everyone is familiar with, even if it is a mountain delicacy, this taste is considered good.What's more, in the years since he opened the store, he has never seen this kind of powder skin, let alone heard of any restaurant selling it, so this item is even more rare in this regard.

After all, even if the taste is not enough for a single item, the gimmick is enough.

Although Lin Baozhu was waiting by the side, her eyes did not miss the interaction between the shopkeeper and the spoon master. Seeing the satisfied expressions of the two, she felt relieved and felt at ease immediately.Maybe even because he was happy in his heart, he couldn't help but pouted at Zhang Mandun standing behind him with pride.

Zhang Mantun, who had been silent all this time, was disturbed by the appearance of his own wife.
"I don't know what the shopkeeper wants?"

"It tastes good, but I don't know what it is made of?" Shopkeeper Qin put down his chopsticks and said with a smile, "It's a novelty."

In fact, he just asked casually, and didn't really want to inquire about the way of eating, after all, everyone has their own way.When he does business, what he pays attention to is the friendship between the two sides, and he will never stop making money.The so-called cutting off people's wealth is like killing their parents, opening the door to do business to welcome customers from all over the world, and making enemies is absolutely unacceptable.

It is also because of this awareness and principle that he was able to walk smoothly all the way, and now he has turned Xinglong Tavern into the most prosperous shop in the town.

Lin Baozhu subconsciously glanced at Zhang Mantun, and seeing him nod slightly, she knew in her heart that maybe Shopkeeper Qin didn't intend to find out what she was doing.Immediately, he didn't talk about it, but smiled and said: "It's just some country dishes. I just want to ask our shop if we want to help consignment. This food can not only be served cold, but also stewed game. The taste will be more delicious Fresh and fragrant. And as long as it is stored properly, it will not be afraid of spoilage in spring, summer, autumn and winter."

Thinking about how to eat fern root powder, Lin Baozhu said with a smile: "This thing looks inconspicuous, but it has a lot of weight on the plate. You can also see that only a small handful can make up a plate. If you add Some other embellishments would be better."

Shopkeeper Qin smacked his lips, thinking quickly in his mind.Just now he saw with his own eyes how this powdery skin can be made into a plate at one stroke. Based on this calculation, it may sell many servings per catty.In addition to the unique gimmick, there are many customers who come and go with the Xinglong Tavern. Once it is sold, it is expected to make a lot of profit.

Thinking of this, he smiled and asked, "I don't know how the siblings plan to consign and what the price is? If it's not too presumptuous, how much can the siblings contribute?"

If it is on sale, the most fearful thing is that the customer comes to order but he can't produce anything.

Lin Baozhu's mind turned quickly. Now the season of bracken is almost over. According to her digging speed, she can dig a basket in a day.There is no shortage of bracken in the mountains, and people of all ages can dig it. If you buy bracken in the village, you can get a lot of it in the late spring or two months.She just cooks out the starch inside, and the rest can be made slowly.

She kept calculating in her mind, and adding the costs that she had thought about before, she quickly decided on the price.

"If it is a consignment sale, I will deliver the goods at the beginning of each month and settle the bill at the end of the month. I need to collect [-]% of the profit. If I order the noodles, it costs [-] cents per catty, and there is no default in payment of the silver and goods. As for the catty that can be supplied, I can't decide yet. Now, but if you don’t talk about it, you can survive the spring and summer.” Lin Baozhu’s expression remained unchanged, and he said with a generous smile, “When the temperature gradually becomes colder in autumn, the sales will not be so good.”

Hearing this, shopkeeper Qin nodded.Originally, he gave Lin Baozhu a high look because he wanted to save Zhang Mandun's face and favor, but now that she speaks and acts in an orderly manner and with great plans, he can't help but feel a little admiration.It's rare for a peasant girl to have such a style of acting.

Coupled with Zhang Mandun behind him, it seems that the future life of these two couples will not be too bad.Thinking of this, Shopkeeper Qin's attitude became even better.

"My brother and sister are more thoughtful. Let's do this. I'll order this vermicelli. No matter how much you supply, you must first ask us for it from Xinglong Tavern." Shopkeeper Qin wanted to be big, but also wanted a unique gimmick. Naturally, I don't want to let this food fall into the tavern outside.

In fact, since the first bite, shopkeeper Qin knew that this business could not be rejected, but if someone else took the lead, it might be their Xinglong Restaurant's loss.

Lin Baozhu glanced at her own man, seeing that he didn't have any objections, nor was she angry at her making decisions without discussing the deal with him, so she felt at ease.Seeing that he is as stable as Mount Tai, looking at him with bright eyes but no doubts, he suddenly chuckled.

Fortunately, he didn't have too much doubt about his changes.It was she who frightened herself. Thinking of this, Lin Baozhu's unexplained uneasiness calmed down.Then the conversation with the shopkeeper naturally became more and more reasonable, and even directly decided to sign a contract.

Shopkeeper Qin also knew that it was safe to have paperwork, and immediately asked the staff to fetch the pen, ink, paper and inkstone after negotiating the details.He is a person who often does business, so it is not a problem to write documents, but the contract is implemented on paper in a short time.

"Brother Mantun, brother and sister, do you think this is good?" After writing the paperwork, shopkeeper Qin didn't hide his narrow-mindedness, and directly handed it over for people to check.

Lin Baozhu glanced at her man, and seeing him nodding encouragingly and approvingly, she knew that shopkeeper Qin was probably not a trickster, and he wouldn't give her any tricks.So he made a confession, and took the paperwork openly and looked at it carefully.Although the characters here are somewhat pictographic, they are generally not much different from the traditional characters in the previous life. Not to mention anything else, she spent a lot of time in Hong Kong and Taiwan earlier, and she also specialized in making classic tea packaging. She has learned traditional Chinese characters, so reading this contract document will naturally not trouble her.

Zhang Mantun had known for a long time that his daughter-in-law could read and write, so he was not surprised to see her looking through the terms of the contract.On the contrary, shopkeeper Qin was surprised, and treated Lin Baozhu with a more serious attitude. After all, in this remote and remote place, there may not be two literate people in a village.
