Chapter 118 WPG0117: Single draw? Ten draws in a row? Internet celebrity route? 454K【Please subscribe】
An Wuyang put the beef into his mouth and tasted it carefully.
Although Lin Xin's braised beef has achieved high scores in terms of color and aroma, the most important thing is the taste.
Among the three levels of "color, fragrance", "color" and "scent" are the icing on the cake, and "taste" is the foundation.
After all, delicious food is king!
For example, does stinky tofu look good?
This thing still stinks!
It can be said that it failed miserably in terms of both "color" and "fragrance".
However, stinky tofu is very good in terms of "taste" and has won the love of many people. So even if it doesn't look good, even if it is smelly, some people still think it is delicious.
When An Wuyang was chewing the braised beef, he immediately noticed something strange!
The texture of this piece of beef tendon is unusually soft and glutinous, and there is no chance of clogging your teeth at all.
What is going on?
Even beef tendon shouldn’t be like this!
Did you use a pressure cooker?
Wrong
The pressure cooker only speeds up cooking, rather than producing such a texture.
In addition to the soft and glutinous texture, the taste is also quite good. Its style is not spicy, but spicy and sweet, which makes people feel a little bit unable to stop.
An Wuyang finished one piece of beef, then picked up the second piece, and then the third piece.
……
'bite! ’
‘Random event: delicious beef! ’
‘You don’t eat beef? But I like to eat! ’
‘The seemingly ordinary braised beef has a soft and glutinous texture, and combined with the spicy but sweet taste, it makes people want to stop! ’
‘Congratulations to the host for tasting an unforgettable meal! ’
‘Event reward: [Gourmet lucky draw gift pack]’
……
Another food raffle gift pack?
An Wuyang didn't even check the gourmet lottery gift pack he got at Aunt Zhou's Pig's Knuckle Rice yesterday, but did he get another one for An Wuyang?
An Wuyang was a little indifferent to the gourmet lottery gift packs. He was wondering whether he should draw two single shots later, or should he collect ten and draw ten consecutive prizes?
I don’t know if there is a guarantee for ten draws in a row?
However, the Happy Life System lost contact again and did not answer An Wuyan's doubts at all.
Watching An Wuyang eating braised beef piece by piece, Xia Yuqing asked happily, "Is it delicious?"
An Wuyang sighed, "It's delicious!"
The Happy Life system has given out rewards, can An Wuyan still feel that it’s not delicious?
Maybe An Wuyang can lie, but the happy life system based on An Wuyang's senses cannot lie.
"Auntie, how do you make the beef tendon have a soft and waxy texture?" An Wuyang asked.
"Qingqing, do you still remember what I taught you?" Lin Xin asked Xia Yuqing. She had a little thought. She wanted to tell An Wuyang that Xia Yuqing could also cook.
Xia Yuqing answered affirmatively, "What I remember is that before cutting the meat, you should use a hammer to pound the beef tendon meat and break the fibers of the beef tendon meat to achieve such a soft and waxy texture, right?" < br>
"Yeah!" Lin Xin confirmed.
An Wuyang asked, "Have a hammer before cutting? Why not hammer after cutting? Wouldn't it be easier to hammer into small pieces?"
"Not really." Lin Xin responded negatively. In fact, as soon as she heard An Wuyang's words, she knew that An Wuyang didn't cook and didn't know how to cook, otherwise she wouldn't be able to ask such a question.
"If you cut the beef tendon into pieces first and then hammer it, it will be easy to hammer the meat directly into minced meat." Lin Xin explained.
"In addition, the strength of hammering the meat is also important. If the hammer is too light, the meat fiber will be broken, and if the hammer is too heavy, it will easily break the beef into minced meat, thus affecting the taste." Lin Xin added.
"That's it." An Wuyang sighed.
Sure enough, there is knowledge everywhere in life!
On the surface, it looks like just simple braised beef, but it is also braised beef. Some braised beef is hard to bite and very chewy, while some braised beef is soft, glutinous and delicious.
"Classmate An, how do you think this braised beef noodles should be priced?" Lin Xin asked.
Lin Xin added, "The issue I wanted to talk about yesterday was the issue of pricing."
Pass the failure of the cold vegetable braised vegetable stall
Should it be considered a failure?
Lin Xin also realized some problems. For example, sometimes if the craftsmanship is good and the ingredients used are good, the business will be good.
That's why Lin Xin asked An Wuyang how to price.
"Regarding the issue of pricing, we must first calculate the cost. Only after the cost calculation is clear can we comprehensively consider pricing." An Wuyang explained.
"Auntie, how many pieces of beef can you cut out of one pound?" An Wuyang asked.
"No more than 20 lumps." Lin Xin replied.
Lin Xin added, "The braised beef should not be cut too small, because it will shrink after blanching. If it is cut too small, it will not have a thick texture, and the visual experience will be very small."
The density of raw beef is about 1.2 grams/cubic centimeter. The volume of the beef cut by Lin Xin is estimated to be about 20 to 25 cubic centimeters. A pound of 500 grams will indeed not exceed 20 lumps.
"What's the current price of beef tendon?" An Wuyang asked again.
Lin Xin replied, "The beef tendons I buy are all of good quality. Some of the beef after being injected with water are not tasty, so the price is a little more expensive. The price I bought today is about 40 yuan."
"The cost of beef is equivalent to 2 yuan a piece. Add condiments, gas, and human resources, and the cost goes up." An Wuyang responded.
"According to convention, there should be 4 lumps of beef in each bowl of braised beef noodles, right?" An Wuyang asked additionally.
Lin Xin responded affirmatively, "Yes."
This is Shengqing's custom. If the braised beef noodles have less than 4 pieces of meat, the customer may not say anything, but it is most likely a one-time purchase and it is difficult for the other party to become a repeat customer.
"A rough calculation, plus the cost of noodles and condiments, beef, and operating costs, it can reach almost 10 yuan." An Wuyang calculated.
Of course, if Lin Xin were to calculate it, this figure should be even lower.
Because Lin Xin does not know how to calculate his own labor costs, that is, human resources.
"Currently, the price of our Shengqing beef noodles is usually between 15 yuan and 24 yuan." An Wuyang pondered.
"Auntie, do you want to do peripheral business or an Internet celebrity store?" An Wuyang asked suddenly.
"What are the differences between them?" Lin Xin asked.
"If it is a lifestyle peripheral store, it means that the customers are usually the surrounding residents. Since Zhuyuyuan belongs to a low-consumption scene, our pricing must be lower in order to survive in the low-consumption scene." An Wuyang explained.
Lin Xin’s cold vegetable and braised vegetable stall died because it forced high-consumption business in a low-consumption scene!
"If you open an Internet celebrity store, you can raise some prices. After all, the customers of an Internet celebrity store will not be limited to the surrounding area." An Wuyang added.
An Wuyang did not talk about the troubles and difficulties of running an Internet celebrity store, because none of those troubles were troubles for An Wuyang.
Want to know more about money making ability?
Xia Yuqing answered on the side, "It should be difficult for us to become an internet celebrity store, right?"
"Is it difficult?" An Wuyang asked.
"Isn't it difficult?" Xia Yuqing wondered.
"As long as the hype is right, it's actually very simple." An Wuyang replied.
"Qingqing, you have to believe in Auntie's craftsmanship." An Wuyang added. "You also have to trust my judgment. Just for this braised beef, I think it is very easy to build an Internet celebrity store!" An Wuyang added.
Having said this, An Wuyang looked at Lin Xin, "Actually, there is still one biggest problem."
Lin Xin was confused, "What's the problem?"
"If we want to make braised beef like this, how much can Auntie make in a day?" An Wuyang asked.
Lin Xin frowned slightly, "This... it's a bit complicated to do."
Xia Yuqing seconded the opinion, "The meat pounding process takes about half an hour."
"Ah?" An Wuyang frowned, "Is there any way to use a machine to solve this?"
Lin Xin shook his head, "No such machine has been found yet."
"Fascia gun?" An Wuyang responded.
Some things can be used completely different from the factory settings to achieve better results.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
"What is the fascia gun?" Lin Xin didn't understand the fascia gun.
An Wuyang took out his mobile phone to search for the fascia gun in the short video, and then showed it to Lin Xin for review.
Lin Xin looked at it for a moment, then shook her head in denial, "Its power is too small."
An Wuyang searched for the 'meat hammering machine' again and showed it to Lin Xin to check.
Lin Xin looked at it for a while this time, and she responded, "If the strength can be adjusted, this machine is more suitable."
"These are all minor problems. We just need to let the manufacturer customize them." An Wuyang responded.
It’s nothing more than the ability to make money come into play!
"With the help of this meat hammering machine, although it's not as good as doing it myself, the effect should be pretty good." Lin Xin breathed a sigh of relief.
If she was allowed to pound the meat herself, how could she have so much time every day?
It’s impossible to have that much physical strength!
"Then let's build an Internet celebrity store. With Auntie's craftsmanship, we will definitely succeed." An Wuyang boasted.
"Since we are going to take the Internet celebrity route, we can choose to put 6 to 8 lumps of beef in our beef noodles, so that we can sell it at a higher price and stop some people's mouths." An Wuyang added.
"If there are 6 to 8 lumps of beef, my suggestion is to sell it for 68 yuan." An Wuyang gave pricing suggestions.
"So expensive?" Lin Xin was surprised.
An Wuyang nodded affirmatively, "The price is expensive, and it is also a topic. Internet celebrity stores need topics."
"In addition, if the price is 68 yuan, the gross profit should be 50 yuan." An Wuyang added.
Lin Xin shook her head, "More than that, it should be higher."
This obviously does not include human resource costs.
"It's just that I'm worried about not having customers." Lin Xin was a little worried.
An Wuyan replied with a smile, "What's there to worry about? This store is sunny, and there is no pressure from renting a store. Even if there are fewer customers, the profit margin is very high, and there will definitely be no problem making money."
Lin Xin and Xia Yuqing suddenly remembered that the noodle shop had been given to Xia Yuqing by An Wuyang, and they did not need to bear the pressure of renting the store.
The mother and daughter seemed to look at each other in understanding.
"Then let's try according to classmate An's suggestion." Lin Xin took a deep breath and decided.
An Wuyang responded, "Auntie, you have to have confidence in yourself."
At nine o'clock in the morning, An Wuyang personally took Lin Xin and Xia Yuqing to go through various procedures. In fact, it was not An Wuyang who was leading the process, but Huang Moo. An Wuyang just used his abilities and connections.
Near noon, both the health certificates of Lin Xin and Xia Yuqing and the business license named ‘Lin Family Noodle House’ by Xia Yuqing were all completed, but it would take the next day to get the business license.
It's not that An Wuyang didn't find a relationship, but that the fastest way to find a relationship would be tomorrow. This is because the 'hardware' doesn't support it.
But it doesn't matter if it takes a day, because Lin Xin still has to make preparations before opening.
In the afternoon, An Wuyan accompanied Xia Yuqing and Lin Xin on their shopping spree, completing the purchase of all relevant seasonings, tableware, kitchen utensils, etc.
Near five o'clock in the evening, the three of them returned to Zhuyuyuan with the delivery staff.
The store in Zhuyuyuan has also been given a new look by a professional cleaning company. Lin Xin is directing delivery personnel to deliver relevant goods into the store.
An Wuyang took Xia Yuqing to the convenience store next door.
Xia Yuqing whispered, "Classmate An, thank you."
"You helped us like this." Xia Yuqing paused for two seconds before continuing, "I don't know how to repay you."
"You are my girlfriend, shouldn't I help you?" An Wuyang replied with a smile.
This is an emotionally intelligent answer!
We can't let An Wuyang respond with a low emotional intelligence, "You promise to repay me with your body", right?
In fact, An Wuyan's high EQ answers can achieve the same purpose, so why should we give low EQ answers?
More importantly, even if he achieved his goal through a low EQ answer, Xia Yuqing should feel uncomfortable.
As for what someone said, An Wuyang didn't need to consider Xia Yuqing's feelings, that was even more nonsense.
Xia Yuqing is An Wuyang's girlfriend. An Wuyang likes Xia Yuqing. Why doesn't he consider Xia Yuqing's thoughts?
It’s not like you’re trying to support someone!
Besides, even if you are fostering someone, you still have feelings.
After all, if there is no affection between men and women, some things will be very embarrassing, because when she doesn't like you, her body will instinctively avoid you. How uncomfortable is that?
Inside a convenience store.
An Wuyang greeted the middle-aged boss, "Boss, do you have a large bottle of iced black tea?"
"Yes." The middle-aged boss replied affirmatively.
"Six bottles." An Wuyang responded, and then asked, "Qingqing, look at what you want to drink, and bring something back to your mother by the way."
Xia Yuqing responded, "I'll be fine if I drink mineral water. My mother drinks mineral water too."
"Then let's get three more bottles of mineral water." An Wuyang also chose mineral water, then paid and carried it back to Lin's Noodle House.
"Thank you for your hard work, let's drink a bottle of water." An Wuyang placed the large frozen bottle of iced black tea on the long table and motioned to the porter to help himself.
There were only three porters, but An Wuyang bought six bottles of drinks and was quite well prepared.
"Thank you, boss!" The moving master thanked him quickly.
"You're welcome." An Wuyang replied with a smile.
An Wuyang is very good at being sober because he has received a good education since he was a child.
He knew very well the impact these small favors could have. Just spending a little money would make the moving masters work more seriously. Why not do it?
