Farmer's Ruyi Manor

Chapter 58 The First Pot of Gold in Shuiwan Town
Shopkeeper Liu bowed his head in thought for a long time, and finally nodded in agreement. After all, he is in charge of the Yuelai Restaurant in Shuiwan Town, and he must have the right to speak in terms of sales and other performance. Therefore, he has full power to make decisions and does not need to inform the owner. .

In addition, Xiaohua showed shopkeeper Liu those sour bamboo shoots and hot and sour bamboo shoot tips, and said, "Master Liu, this is a new bamboo shoot dish made by my family. There are spicy and non-spicy ones. What do you think?" , you can try it."

Shopkeeper Liu looked at the sour bamboo shoots, then at the hot and sour bamboo shoots.Taste each and nod in satisfaction.It was about to be ordered, and the price agreed by the two of them was accepted at the price of 12 Wen per catty. After all, the hot and sour bamboo shoots take time.I said that the sour bamboo shoots cost 10 renminbi per catty, and the hot and sour bamboo shoots cost 15 renminbi per catty. In the end, the prices were negotiated and agreed to be 12 renminbi.Two dish florets come with 2 recipes.But shopkeeper Sun thinks that the two recipes, fried pork with sour bamboo shoots or braised duck with sour bamboo shoots are not enough. Although the hot and sour bamboo shoots can be said to be 2 dishes, the restaurant should follow the taste of the guests. Can eat spicy food, some can't, so these two recipes are not enough.Let Xiao Hua increase again, Xiao Hua thought about it and agreed, but sold it for 4 taels of silver for a recipe.

She herself thought about waiting for her to grow up, thinking about eating and opening a shop by herself.After all, the ultimate goal is a manor, which will cost a lot of money, and she has to leave a way out for herself.In the end, two more recipes were sold, one steamed fish head with sour bamboo shoots (this dish had to be defeated by the husband who loves fish), and one fried duck heart with sour bamboo shoots.

Because Xiaohua was afraid that the chef would not be able to cook these dishes, she went to the kitchen to demonstrate them.As soon as I walked into the kitchen, the kitchen of the restaurant was really different, not to mention spacious and bright, with complete facilities, just a few pots, and all kinds of materials.In fact, Xiaohua was really afraid that there would be no fish before entering the kitchen, but fortunately, she looked around all the ingredients in the kitchen, and she really saw fish.Secretly attached in my heart: It seems that people in this town eat fish, so why do people in Chengjiakeng hate fish so much?This makes no sense.

Xiaohua definitely wouldn't do it by herself, so she ordered the fat chef to do it.The chef himself is not happy, but you must know that he is a chef in a big restaurant, and he will be directed by a yellow-haired girl, and if he spreads out, he will be laughed at.But seeing that the shopkeeper personally brought it in and looked very valued, he had no choice but to swallow the words that had just arrived in his mouth.

The first is to make braised duck with sour bamboo shoots: to prepare materials, you need sour bamboo shoots, ginger, oil, dried chili, soy sauce, and I didn’t see cooking wine, but I saw a bottle of rice wine. I will use rice wine as a bar for the time being, and finally duck meat .

Method: Duck meat is cut into pieces and boiled with water and ginger slices in advance to remove the fishy smell. After a quarter of an hour, remove and drain.First heat up the pan, pour oil, add ginger slices and fry it, but unfortunately there is no green onion, otherwise it will be more fragrant, then put the drained duck meat into the pan and stir-fry to change the color, after the aroma comes out, add salt and rice wine and stir-fry until Inhale the rice wine and salt completely, add the cleaned shredded sour bamboo shoots, fry for a few minutes, add water just to cover the duck meat, stew the pot, stir fry several times during the stew pot process, and wait until one third of the duck is left, Add chili and soy sauce, and finally collect the juice out of the pan.

During the whole process of this dish, the way the chef looked at Xiao Hua changed.Ershuan smelled the fragrance and swallowed a few mouthfuls of saliva, Xiao Hua looked so funny.

Steamed fish head with sour bamboo shoots: ingredients, one bighead carp head (fat head fish), some sour bamboo shoots, shredded ginger, salt, pepper, and shallots.

Method: Wash the sour bamboo shoots first, shred them, shred the ginger, prepare the chopped green onion, split the fish head in half, marinate with pepper, shredded ginger, salt, and oil for 20 minutes (this is when making braised duck with sour bamboo shoots) already marinated), add sour bamboo shoots and put them on the plate.After that, steam on high heat for about eight or nine minutes, and then drizzle with oil. Unfortunately, there is no light soy sauce, so I had to use a little soy sauce instead, and sprinkle with chopped green onion.

Everyone didn't expect this dish to be so fast, Xiaohua said: "Steam for too long, the fish head will not be tender enough. If you want the fish head to be more delicious, you can cut the fish head into smaller pieces, it depends on how you do it .”

As the other two dishes were relatively simple, Xiaohua didn't ask carefully to make them. After telling the chef the general recipe, she came out to ask for money, signed a contract, and left.

After coming out of the kitchen, shopkeeper Liu was very satisfied with these dishes, and the two drew up the contract again, and after Xiaohua checked that there was no problem, she stamped it.Two recipes are 10 taels of silver, one compensation is 5 taels of silver, and dried bamboo shoots are 30 catties, which is 210 Wen.Sour bamboo shoots and bamboo shoots are 10 catties, 120 Wen.When Xiaohua came out of Yuelai Restaurant, she already had 15 taels and 330 Wen in her pocket.Now this girl's walking is windy, she is rich.

Before going out, shopkeeper Liu said that he would send someone to get the dried bamboo shoots in two days, and he also ordered him not to provide any more bamboo shoots to Fushou Restaurant.

Cheng Wenqiang stared at Xiaohua all the time, feeling proud and uncomfortable.At such a young age, she made more than a dozen taels of silver in one go, which took her family ten years of hard work to earn. This little girl made it all in one go.What is proud is that this is his cousin and niece, who is from his Chengjiakeng, and he will need to rely on her to lead their whole village to become rich in the future.

He watched the whole process today, thinking silently in his heart that in the future, Xiaohua will spare no effort to help her with full authority.

The two went all the way to the house of the village chief's cousin's younger sister. The cousin is a very good person. The family lives in the north of the town. The cousin's husband's family name is Bai. They have a son and a daughter. The daughter is older than Xiaohua. She is 10 years old this year. Her name is Bailuo, and her son is Bai Haoze. He is 8 years old and is the same age as Xiaohua.However, both of them can speak Xiaohua's dialect because of their mother's relationship.

After the cousin arranged a place for her and the village head uncle to live, the cousin went out to run errands.Xiaohua and Bailuo share a room, because Bai Haoze is on holiday today, so he didn't go to school.

The three children are close in age, and because they are in the town, the two children have no friends. Of course they are very happy to see Xiaohua coming.Xiaohua asked Bailuo to call her the language of the town, and the children chattered for a long time.

Suddenly Xiao Hua remembered her water chestnuts.So I went to get some, washed them and gave them to Bai Luo and Hao Ze.

"Sister Xiaohua, what is this? It's so delicious, I still want it." After all, Bai Luo was a child, and she ate something she had never eaten before, and it was still crunchy and sweet, of course she still wanted to eat it.

"Sister Xiaohua, I want to eat too." After Bai Haoze finished eating, his eyes sparkled, and he also said he wanted more.Xiaohua looked at this little guy Bai Haoze, he would definitely be a handsome guy when he grows up, and he could already see that handsome facial features in the future.I don't know how tall I will grow in the future, after all, I haven't seen my cousin yet.

"Call me sister, you are obviously younger than me, how can you call me sister. I was born in June, and you were born in August, so call me sister." At this moment, Xiaohua even knows when she was born.
