Chapter 64 Royal Tribute Noodles
On November 11th, when discussing the types and prices of breakfast that Yipinju can currently offer, Zhou Xianying suddenly asked Rao Mingyang, "Your mung bean powder is 6 yuan a catty Wang's workshop mung bean powder, and the miscellaneous sauce noodles are sold at More expensive, can't use normal noodles?"

Rao Mingyang was taken aback for a moment, thinking about it was indeed the truth.The two agreed on a bowl of Ganliu miscellaneous sauce noodles at 100 yuan, a regular version with chicken soup at 200 yuan a bowl, and a limited upgraded version with three mushrooms at 300 yuan a bowl.

This price is 100 yuan more expensive than mung bean flour of the same grade.But the source of the noodles, as Zhou Xianying said, can't be too casual, at least it has to be some special noodles.

Thinking of this question, the two of them immediately used the computer in manager Zhou Xianying's office to search online, and all the search results were information about how much a bowl of cooked noodles cost.

380 for a bowl of lobster noodles, 280 for a bowl of ramen noodles, 180 for a bowl of beef noodles, 88 for a bowl of sliced ​​noodles. There are all kinds of noodle prices, but all the talk is about the cooked noodles in other restaurants.It was hard to find a few answers about how much the noodles cost per catty, but they all said that ordinary noodles on the market cost two or three yuan per catty.

After searching the Internet for a long time, but couldn't find any special noodles, Rao Mingyang had to give up.

In the end, Zhou Xianying could only say: "It seems that we can only use ordinary noodles, as long as the quality is better!"

Rao Mingyang nodded, seeing that it was already night, he locked the door with Zhou Xianying, the two left the store and went home separately.

When he got home, he saw a brand new Changan Ford off-road vehicle parked at the door unexpectedly. Rao Mingyang wondered who was coming to his house, then parked the car and walked into the house.

As soon as they entered the door, they saw two middle-aged couples in their 40s sitting on the sofa, talking to Rao Mingyang's parents.

Seeing these two people, Rao Mingyang immediately greeted them happily.

It turned out that these two people were Gao Shangwen, the eldest son of Rao Mingyang's aunt, and his wife, who lived in Xuyang County, L County next door.

Because the grandparents gave birth to 7 children, the eldest aunt was the oldest, and Rao Mingyang's mother was the youngest.Therefore, the aunt who married to Xuyang County, her eldest son Gao Shangwen is also about the same age as Rao Mingyang's mother, and is now nearly 50 years old.

Seeing Rao Mingyang, Gao Shangwen was immediately ready to smoke Rao Mingyang, but Rao Mingyang quickly declined, saying that he doesn't smoke.

Then, Rao Mingyang also sat down and chatted with his cousin.It turned out that Gao Shangwen and his wife went to Zunyi to have a drink, and then went to Mae Tan to do some business, so they stopped by to see their aunt and uncle.

As for the new car, Gao Shangwen only bought it this year, and it cost more than 20 yuan. Hearing that, Rao Mingyang was moved, thinking that when Yipinju made money and got on the right track, he would definitely buy a car.

Riding a battery car every day is not very convenient when it rains, and it is not safe in cities with more and more cars.

Back to the topic, the two families are still famous. They went to Xuyang to pay New Year's greetings to their aunt during the Chinese New Year last year. They haven't seen each other for more than half a year.Therefore, although Rao Dexin and Gao Shangwen were a generation behind, they were not far apart in age, and they chatted very speculatively.

Before Rao Mingyang came back, several people had already had dinner and set up a Longmen formation for more than an hour.

After Rao Mingyang came back, the topic turned to Rao Mingyang's current career.Gao Shangwen said that they didn't see Rao Mingyang's TV news, but they heard about 100 yuan a bowl of Mae Tan Rao Mingyang Crispy Meat and Mung Bean Noodles.

However, at that time they were only shocked by the price of the mung bean powder, but they didn't expect Rao Ming to raise their heads, thinking it was someone else with the same name.

Unexpectedly, this time I came to visit my aunt and uncle, and I was surprised to hear that Rao Dexin and his wife said that it was really his little cousin Rao Mingyang who did it.

In addition, Mae Tan is not far from Xuyang, which is just over an hour's drive, so they were not in a hurry to go home. They chatted with Rao Dexin and his wife for more than an hour, just to wait for Rao Mingyang to come back and meet.

Gao Shangwen congratulated Rao Mingyang when he heard that Rao Mingyang won the first place in the province, city and county's third-level famous snacks, and now he has borrowed another 60 yuan to open a large restaurant of 400 square meters, which has been renovated and is about to open.

Then, when talking about the breakfast types of Yipinju, which Rao Mingyang is about to open, Rao Mingyang said that he did not find the source of the main ingredients for his miscellaneous sauce noodles.

Ordinary noodles are not impossible, but after all, they lack a selling point, and Rao Mingyang feels a bit unattractive.

Then, Gao Shangwen's wife said: "Ming Yang, if you want noodles, can we have hollow noodles from Xuyang County? The price is a bit expensive!"

"Xuyang Hollow Noodles?" Upon hearing this, several people felt that this noodle could be used as the main ingredient of Rao's famous Mixed Sauce Noodles!
Xuyang Hollow Noodles, the full name of which is "Xuyang Silver Thread Hollow Noodles", is a famous local specialty in Xuyang County, Zunyi City, Qianzhou Province.

Xuyang hollow noodles go through dozens of processes and are purely handmade without any chemical additives.The finished hollow noodles are as small as silk, white as silver in color, and hollow in the middle. They can be boiled for a long time without becoming rotten. They are soft and firm when chewed, tender and smooth, and have a very good taste. They have been royal tributes for hundreds of years in the Ming and Qing dynasties.

The general hollow noodles are about 10 yuan a catty, the better ones are 20 yuan, and the best ones can reach 40 yuan a catty.Because it is all hand-made, the cost is relatively high, and the technical level is also high or low, so the taste is different, and the price difference is also relatively large.

The taste is better than ordinary noodles, and it is also a tribute from the ancient royal family, all handmade, etc. No matter from which point of view, using this hollow noodle as the main material of miscellaneous sauce noodles is a highlight, and it is a high-end gourmet with Yipinju. The routes coincide.

Thinking of this, Rao Mingyang said to his cousin: "My cousin has a way. I really didn't think of using hollow noodles to make mixed sauce noodles. Thank you!"

The cousin said with a smile: "Thank you, thank you, as long as you can help!"

Rao Dexin also nodded and said: "This is not bad, it is high-grade. However, the hollow noodles are all produced by hand, and the quality is uneven. You have to pay attention to choosing suppliers."

Rao Mingyang heard this, and said to Gao Shangwen: "Old Cousin, you are from Xuyang, do you have any recommendations for better quality and more reliable manufacturers?"

Gao Shangwen shook his head and said, "I haven't really paid attention to this. If I usually eat it, I buy it directly in the supermarket, and I haven't paid attention to the specific manufacturer."

Rao Mingyang thought for a while, and said to Rao De: "Dad, I want to open a store every day, and I have to take care of the preparations before the opening of Yipinju, so I can't go to Xuyang alone. Why don't you go to Xuyang, choose it, and find a shop. Manufacturers with good reputation, stable quality, and express delivery, as our suppliers, will supply goods on a regular basis.”

Rao Dexin nodded, agreed to the matter, asked Xia Rao Mingyang the price range he accepted, and then went back to the room to clean up.

Half an hour later, Rao Dexin took the thousands of dollars given by Rao Mingyang, and took Gao Shangwen's car to Xuyang together to find a hollow noodle supplier for Rao Mingyang.
