Chapter 67 The First Pot of Gold


Chapter 67 The First Pot of Gold

With a roll of his eyes, Yang Ruoqing said with a smile: "Uncle, how about we do this? I'll give you the eels and rabbits for thirty-two cents a pound. This wooden barrel Well, just give me ten cents In addition, I will give you a free recipe of 'Griddle Stir-fried Rabbit'. How about it?"

Everyone has their own body language. These very subtle body languages ​​are a habit. It is also a sign.

It was formed over time in their daily work.

As long as you observe carefully, it is not difficult to infer what this person is probably doing.

And the middle-aged and fat uncle in front of him also has indelible professional characteristics, and these characteristics cannot escape the eyes of Yang Ruoqing, who is an agent! .

Chef!

This is not the kind of chef who works at a small food stall. He is probably a chef from a big restaurant.

Since you are the chef, it is easy to handle. Recipes, new recipes that others do not have, are the best bait to lure them into taking the bait.

Sure enough, when the middle-aged man heard Yang Ruoqing's words, a glimmer of light flashed across his eyes.

But then, he looked at Yang Ruoqing with suspicion and shook his head: "Little girl, don't talk nonsense. To be blunt, looking at your dress, you don't look like you have eaten delicacies from all over the world. I’m afraid the gentlemen in the town are tired of eating the recipes you’re talking about, so you’re still a treasure!”

You fat man, are you looking down on others?

Yang Ruoqing keeps in mind that she is a businessman at this moment, and being friendly makes money.

Suppressing the urge to beat him into a pig's head with one fist, the corners of his lips curved with confidence.

"Uncle, judging people by their appearance is very superficial! I can't guarantee whether the emperor has tasted the recipe I gave you, but in this Qingshui Town, no one has tasted it. Got it! Uncle, do you dare to give it a try?”

The middle-aged man seemed to be moved by Yang Ruoqing's confident eyes.

He narrowed his eyes and subconsciously raised his hand to tug at the mustache on his mouth, showing a thoughtful expression.

A wooden barrel costs ten cents, and rabbits and eels cost two more cents per catty. The two items added together weigh about ten catties. After such calculation, I am equivalent to more than thirty cents more. Money buys this little girl a recipe!

Not expensive!

If that recipe is really rare, then it will be a huge profit!

He had made up his mind, but the middle-aged man still wanted to deliberately make things difficult for Yang Ruoqing: "Little girl, I don't know anything about you. If you randomly make up a recipe to fool me, I will suffer a loss and the customers who eat my food will be out of pocket." Something went wrong, where can I go to you to explain it to you?”

"Uncle, please don't worry about the food in your mouth. As a little girl, I definitely don't dare to make fun of people's lives."

Yang Ruoqing looked anxious and cautious: "Every one of me They will come to Wa on the first, fifteenth and twenty-fifth of the month. We are trading in the market. Have you seen these knitted items in my house? They are what my family uses to make a living. I am doing long-term business!” If you don't have the guts, you'll pay for it. Son, please go and look elsewhere, don’t hinder my business and slander my character!”

Yang Ruoqing waved her hands, the smile on her face faded, and started to call others to come and take a look! A customer of bamboo products deliberately left the middle-aged man hanging aside.

The middle-aged man was not angry, he just stood aside with a smile and watched Yang Ruoqing doing business.

This little girl looks young, but she is very nimble in doing things, has a sweet mouth, and the price is quite reasonable.

"Auntie, thank you for taking care of my business. The basket is well used. Come back next time!"

Sent Auntie off, Yang Ruoqing collected the five cents. Here, the middle-aged man The man spoke: "It's done. , I’ll just believe you for once!”

Yang Ruoqing’s eyes lit up and she smiled at him. She picked up the steel scale from Aunt Guihua’s house that she had brought over and weighed the eel again in front of the middle-aged man. Go on the scale with a rabbit!

"Uncle, look at it. The eel is three pounds and two taels, and the rabbit is five pounds and eighty taels. The total is nine pounds. Thirty-two cents per pound is two hundred and eighty-eight cents. The wooden barrel is ten cents, and you will receive it in total. Two hundred and ninety-eight cents!”

“The little girl has a good brain. Settlement of accounts!" The middle-aged man took the eels and rabbits, took out a bunch of copper coins from his arms and gave them to Yang Ruoqing, "Here are three hundred cents, and with the two cents, you can buy two meat buns to beat your teeth. !”

Yang Ruoqing took the money and immediately smiled.

"Thank you for the reward, uncle!"

The middle-aged man waved his hand, "Tell me, what is that thing and how do you do it?" Yang Ruoqing organized her words in her mind and approached him. , told him in detail the making process of stir-fried rabbit in dry pot.

This dish was one of Yang Ruoqing’s favorite dishes in her previous life.

She likes food, and she likes to study even more. She has found some tips that are not even found in popular recipes.

For example, how to dry rabbit meat, and how to perfectly integrate and sublimate the three tastes of spicy and crispy...

Yang Ruoqing spared no effort to pass on her experience to the person in front of her. Fatty, that's not how she is selfless.

This is taking a long-term view and catching big fish. She is looking for long-term interests.

So now, we have to let this fat man taste some sweetness.

The middle-aged man listened very carefully and kept every word in his heart. Especially when he heard the two key details that Yang Ruoqing specially told later, his eyes lit up and he suddenly became enlightened.

“Little girl, listening to your words, you really sound like an expert!” The middle-aged man looked at Yang Ruoqing again with bright eyes.

He was very worried about the restaurant business during this period.

Why?

A new brothel opened in the town. The brothel was originally engaged in the leather and meat business. However, the madam hired a cook from who knows where and made new dishes.

Many gentlemen in the town went there to drink wine and taste delicious food!

It’s really a joke to tell you that the food of a time-honored restaurant in this town was actually outperformed by a brothel.

Being a chef in a restaurant is stressful.

I didn't expect that today I would get a recipe for a dish I had never heard of from a little country girl in Wa City.

Although he has not yet made it himself, just by listening to what the little girl said, he could already smell the wonderful aroma of the rabbit stir-fried in a dry pot, and his mouth could not help but drip!

This dish is interesting!

"Little girl, I won't hide it from you. I work in a restaurant in town. If this recipe gets a good response, I will come back to you on the first day of next month to prepare a thank you gift."< br>
After sending away the middle-aged man, Yang Ruoqing touched the bulging copper coins on her body and grinned to the side with excitement.

Later, customers came one after another. The matsutake mushrooms were sold, and the bamboo baskets were also sold. There were still two bamboo baskets left that no one wanted.

There is nothing wrong with selling the two bamboo baskets. Anyway, she is going to buy some daily necessities later, and the two bamboo baskets are just suitable for holding things.

Yang Ruoqing carefully counted the copper plates that she came out to sell. She found that the bamboo products cost 5 cents each, which was thirty pieces in total. Twenty-eight pieces were sold, which was one hundred and forty cents.

The rabbit and the eel have a total of three hundred texts.

A catty of dried matsutake costs five cents, and two catties is ten cents. Including the ten cents for the wooden barrel, today’s total income is four hundred and sixty cents.

After deducting the five cents paid for the stall rental, four hundred and fifty-five cents were earned!

Although the harvest was less than half a tael of silver, Yang Ruoqing was extremely excited!

This is the first pot of gold she has earned since she came to this world, and it is also the money her father earned with his own hands after he was bedridden with a leg injury and experienced a period of negativity and decadence!

Although it is not much, it gives the family hope!
