Chapter 132 Zanthoxylum bungeanum and chili pepper
Soon, everyone in the village knew that Su Xiaoxiao was going to build a house in the village.
Su Xiaoxiao just built a workshop, but she didn't expect that she would soon start building a new house for herself.
Such a big move is really unexpected.
Some people think that Su Xiaoxiao is a little complacent, while others say that Su Xiaoxiao's behavior is more consistent with her current identity. After all, she is no longer an ordinary little widow in the village.
Behind her was Li Zheng, who was supporting her, and Qian Musheng, the son of a wealthy family in the town, who was supporting her. She was so arrogant.
In fact, there are other things they don't know. Behind Su Xiaoxiao, there is General Pei Yuan who is supporting her. In the future, there will be ten princes and the current emperor. If they know these things, shouldn't these people who are gossiping behind their backs be able to support her? He quickly shut up.
Starting on the third day, Lady Xuanji ordered people to start laying the foundation at the location she had chosen.
After Su Xiaoxiao had some free time, she began to go to her jam workshop to help take care of the situation.
When she went to town to deliver jam, she unexpectedly met Bruce, whom she hadn't seen for a long time, and saw him wandering on the street.
Su Xiaoxiao bought lemons from him last time, but she didn't contact him again.
As a result, when I saw him this time, it seemed that he was not selling their fruits. Instead, he was selling some exquisitely crafted Western plates and dishes.
But the price is a bit expensive. Some people are just watching the excitement, but no one actually pays to buy it.
Su Xiaoxiao smiled when she saw his anxious look and said, "Bruce, long time no see."
Bruce looked very surprised. When he saw Su Xiaoxiao coming, he quickly called to Su Xiaoxiao and said, "Boss Su, come and see the cool things that just came back from my hometown."
Su Xiaoxiao looked at those exquisite porcelain plates. The colors and patterns on them were indeed very avant-garde and bold, and they looked very beautiful.
Su Xiaoxiao showed great interest and said: "Bruce, after I build my house in the future, I really need a few such beautiful porcelain plates to decorate my kitchen."
When Bruce heard that he was now marketable, some people began to appreciate the Western items he had brought back. Naturally, he was very happy, and he began to introduce these Western porcelain plates to Su Xiaoxiao. Su Xiaoxiao listened patiently.
Suddenly, Su Xiaoxiao thought that at this time, they didn't seem to have seasonings like chili pepper and Sichuan peppercorns in the West.
Su Xiaoxiao took out these two things from her backpack.
"Have you seen this thing?"
When Bruce saw peppers, he knew them. They were red and smelled quite spicy, but it seemed like this was the first time he had seen peppercorns.
Sichuan peppercorns look like they have round heads, smell very pungent to the nose, are mainly blue in color, and have a burning sensation when eaten.
Bruce took a look and said, "Boss Su, is this food edible?"
Su Xiaoxiao smiled and said: "Yes, this thing is a good thing for cooking, and it is very delicious when used for barbecue and hot pot."
Bruce seemed to have gained experience, and he was very excited when he saw such Sichuan peppercorns and chili peppers. "Boss Su, let me see if I can bring this back to our place for sale."
When Su Xiaoxiao heard this, Bruce was enlightened.
"Yes, you can try selling these seasonings to them. In fact, these seasonings are more popular with people who like strong flavors. If your people over there eat sweeter foods, they will not be easy to accept these things. ?" "This!"
Bruce also thought about it, "But when we make pizza, we also have some salty and heavy flavors, so we might need these seasonings."
As expected, it would be easier to communicate with Bruce.
"Boss Su, I took the jam you made home and it was greatly welcomed by the people in my hometown. Thank you very much for making such a good thing."
When Su Xiaoxiao heard this, she quickly replied very politely: "No, if you like it, I will release more flavors of jam in the future. I hope you will pay more attention to it."
When Su Xiaoxiao left, she also bought some porcelain plates and bowls from Bruce. The workmanship was indeed very exquisite. In fact, they got their porcelain firing technology from here, but people said that there were many bold patterns and patterns painted on the porcelain. , which makes the porcelain bottle look more noble, at least visually very pleasing to the eye.
The foundation of Lady Xuanji's house was built, and the house gradually took on a general shape.
Now seeing that such a house is about to be built, Su Xiaoxiao feels that a sense of accomplishment is slowly rising in her heart.
During lunch, Su Xiaoxiao specially made very delicious cold noodles and fish breasts for Lady Xuanji and the others.
Lady Xuanji was also very shocked. Su Xiaoxiao could also make cold noodles. Compared with her previous only cooking hot pot and barbecue, it was a new attempt to make something light.
Su Xiaoxiao was very thoughtful. The meal she cooked for the workers building the house was a very healthy food with sliced meat and other nutrients. After all, these workers had to help with the work and needed better food.
Su Xiaoxiao also deliberately made these stews more delicious with special seasonings and brought them to the table for the workers to eat.
Let those workers drink and eat meat, so that they can work energetically.
Mrs. Sun shouted from outside: "Sister, what are you doing to make delicious food?"
Su Xiaoxiao took a look and saw that Mrs. Sun was coming.
"Come here and try it. This is the stew I made, using special spices. This time it's not five-spice powder, but there are several spices. There are thirteen kinds of spices in total. Let's call it thirteen spices."
Su Xiaoxiao said so.
Last time she brought five-spice powder to Sun, and that seasoning was indeed very delicious.
This time it was a bottle of thirteen incense. Su Xiaoxiao handed the spice to Sun.
"This is the seasoning I use. Smell it, does it smell good?"
Sun took a whiff and found out that it was indeed it. She was shocked, "Is this another seasoning you developed? It's really amazing."
Su Xiaoxiao smiled and nodded and said, "Indeed, can you take a bottle back?"
"Okay, thank you, sister. By the way, I came here to tell you that the boss of our custom-made high-end porcelain bottles seems to be ill recently and can't make them for us."
Indeed, the last time she met the boss who made porcelain bottles, she found that he seemed to be a little sluggish, maybe because he was not feeling well.
When Su Xiaoxiao heard this, she quickly went over to see what was going on. Originally, she had something to ask for help from this boss. After all, they had worked together many times and knew each other's craftsmanship and people very well.
