Chapter 169: The Story of Ma Tuan
"Explain, what qualifications do you have? Tell Yamashita Yamashita to get out of here! Otherwise, I'll sweep the post house and tear off your baked cake flag." β
Regarding the aggressiveness of the mustache, Wei Dacheng did not show weakness.
The baked cake flag he said refers to the national flag of Jia's country that is planted on the roof of the post house and is fluttering in the wind.
Don't underestimate this national flag, it still has a lot of origins.
It is rumored in the rivers and lakes that the ancestor of Jia's country was born to sell biscuits, called the ancestor of biscuits, because he was illiterate, he hung an apron on the biscuit stall, and drew a biscuit in the middle, so that people could see it from afar.
Because of this flag, it really made the business a lot better, made a lot of money, and brought a lot of apprentices, so that the economy of Jia's country slowly prospered.
Later, Jia settled on the island, in order to commemorate this ancestor, and also felt that the baked cake on the flag was very similar to the sun, which meant very auspicious, so he changed the baked cake flag to the national flag.
But the people of Jia's country gradually forgot about it, and the main reason was that it was a small hemp ball, which was called hemp ball in some places.
Round, made of glutinous rice flour, there is a filling inside is mostly bean paste, a layer of sesame seeds outside, fried in an oil pot, golden and round, both beautiful and delicious.
Ma Tuan is a famous snack in the Kingdom of Luoying, and it is often seen in the streets and alleys.
Seeing that the demand for Jia's domestic baked cakes was saturated and could not meet the needs of their own development, the ancestors of Jia's country thought of opening a branch in the Kingdom of Luoying.
But I found that people here don't like to burn cakes very much, and they are dirty. More and faster chapters are here.
The snow-white flour was kneaded in his hands, and finally it took shape, and then it was about to be flattened again, and then it was pasted on the pan to bake.
If you are not careful, you will fall into the fire or charcoal ash, and you will pick it up and blow and pat it, it will be very fragrant but also very choking, because it will be stained with a lot of dust, and you will still have a little tooth in your mouth when you eat it.
Even if it doesn't fall into the dust, the collapsed shape in your hand makes people lose their appetite.
The hemp ball is different, rolling in the oil pot, crystal clear, fragrant on the outside and sweet on the inside, especially the layer of sesame seeds, which is crispy and delicious, making people salivate.
Compared with the two, Jia's ancestors felt sad in their hearts. The shape, taste, and three-dimensional sense are all the absolute upper hand of the hemp ball.
What's more, the raw materials of hemp balls are much less than those of baked cakes, and they are much larger. Be the first to update
It would undoubtedly be an unwise thing to sell pancakes in the Kingdom of Luoying, but fortunately, this ancestor of the Jia Kingdom was very clever and had a flexible head.
Under the thought of electricity, he made a decision to introduce the stunt of making a hemp ball into Jia Guoguo, hoping to achieve the second take-off of the economy.
However, the hemp balls that are sold all over the street are fried and then brought out for sale, but none of them are freshly made and sold.
This frustrated his plan to steal teachers, but it didn't make him give up his ideals.
After several open investigations and secret visits, supplemented by the temptation of heavy money, there is finally an eighth-generation successor of the founder of the authentic Ma Tuan, who is willing to transfer the skills and valuable experience of making zuΓ² Ma Tuan for a fee.
After Jia Guoguo, the ancestor of baked cakes, paid a large amount of transfer fees, he finally pried open the golden mouth of the heir of Ma Tuan:
"I'm willing to dictate the secret recipe to you, not for money, money is nothing, just dung...... Mainly because of your sincerity, it is really gratifying to be able to bring this secret skill to a distant country and carry it forward. More and faster chapters are here. β
ββ¦β¦ I will break the rules and may face a series of penalties for this, so you must swear that you will not sue anyone anywhere, and I have passed on this skill to you. β¦β¦ In fact, in the art of making hemp balls, what really needs to be kept secret is pasting sesame seeds, which is the essence of it. β
β¦β¦ Even the sesame seeds with various patterns, even with various patterns, are inlaid on top of the spherical hemp balls, bringing you delicious taste and making your eyes enjoy a feast. Be the first to update
But it is very difficult to do it well, first of all, to choose the color, shape and size of the sesame seeds, and secondly, to carefully calculate, because the volume of the sesame ball has changed before and after frying, you must paste all the sesame seeds at once before frying, but you have to calculate the effect after frying.
This is very difficult, and finally there is the link of pasting sesame seeds, which seems to be very simple, but it is not easy, according to the color difference and the different shape and size of sesame seeds, design a kaleidoscopic beautiful pattern.
"As for the specific operation, it depends on your repeated practice to master the skillful skills, of course, with your understanding, I don't need to teach it by hand...... But the calculation formulas and formulas I gave you, you must keep in mind. β
"In addition, you can also try to set other pieces such as Ruoren, and that is your development of the technique,...... I just have to inherit this piece, and the rest depends on your efforts. β
If you feel that your abilities are limited and you are not qualified for such a difficult job, you can also wholesale finished hemp balls from here...... It's just that the cost is relatively high.
This eight-generation descendant spent a day, almost in every detail, to teach the various crafts of hemp balls to the ancestors of the baked cakes very clearly.
It can be seen that the people are indeed highly skilled, and the ancient way is hot, which is more perfect than the ancestors of the baked cakes imagined.
Although he didn't understand it very clearly, the Ancestor of Baked Cakes knew that such a complex and profound skill could not be practiced overnight.
Fortunately, he has been taught, and in time, with his own ingenuity, he will definitely become a first-class Ma Tuan master. Be the first to update
At present, the more important thing is to make money first, and it is not too late to master the essentials of technology.
So, the ancestor of the baked cake paid the transfer fee with all the money he brought with him to open a branch, and made an IOU, and wholesaled some raw materials and a small amount of hemp balls.
Respectfully knelt on the ground, kowtowed three times to the descendants of the Ma Tuan, and then returned to Jia's country with infinite longing and incomparable satisfaction.
The food wholesalers in Jia's own country tasted the mochi balls he brought back, exclaimed the deliciousness, and asked where they could sell them, hoping to order some.
There was a burst of ecstasy in the heart of the ancestor of the baked cake, but his face showed a look of embarrassment:
"This ...... If you want to do it, you have to do it a month in advance. More and faster chapters are here. And since the hemp ball is a cooked food and cannot be returned, you have to pay a deposit of 30% in advance. However, in return, I will make a certain concession on the wholesale price of the first batch of hemp balls, and the more quantities, the lower the price. β
ββ¦β¦ According to the climate of our island, the shelf life of the hemp ball is tentatively set at 100 days. You can determine the amount you need according to the budget, and then pay the corresponding deposit, and both parties sign the contract formalities. In a month's time, it's time for you to show off your skills and make a lot of money. β
With several times more orders than expected, and deposits piled up like a hill, the ancestors of the baked cakes couldn't help but be overjoyed.
After rigorously testing many wholesalers, a part of the strong economic strength and reliable business reputation were selected as their first batch of partners.
The remaining wholesalers let them compete with each other, and then the next batch will be personally selected by the ancestor of the baked cake to finalize the second echelon of partners.
Although the handicap sale makes the profit thinner, if the situation is opened up all of a sudden, the profit in the future is definitely considerable.
After some busyness, the Ancestor of Baked Cakes finally took a long breath and showed a smug expression.
is worthy of being the ancestor of baked cakes, seeing that success is coming, even he himself can't help but give a thumbs up and praise himself for a while.
Next, the ancestors hired many craftsmen who were engaged in food making with high salaries, and after a short period of training, they were put into large-scale production. More and faster chapters are here.
Money can make the devil grind, and these technicians, lured by high salaries, are very enthusiastic about their work, and work day and night continuously.
At night, in the dim light, you need to keep your eyes open and carefully select materials and paste patterns at close range.
Although the first operation is more difficult, everyone has a fearless spirit, not afraid of hardship or tiredness, and must complete the task excellently.
Due to being too involved, in the process of pasting sesame seeds, everyone's faces were stained with a lot of black sesame seeds.
The island's winter climate is dry and cold, and the heat generated by breathing will firmly stick the black sesame seeds under the nose to the center of the person.
Due to the continuous work, there was no time to take care of it, and after a few days, the black sesame seeds under the nose merged with the skin, and it was difficult to peel off.
Later, many Jia people had a thick black beard under their noses, which was caused by the breeding of black sesame seeds back then.
ββSome people also call it the black beard of the Ma Tuan, which has become one of the symbols of Jia's own people, which is a later story.
The ancestors of the baked cakes followed the methods, formulas, and formulas provided by the descendants of the hemp group, personally checked the quality, and strictly controlled it.
Half a month has passed, and such high-density and overloaded work continues.
The ancestor of the baked cake counted the finished hemp ball, and couldn't help but gasp, the number of completed products was about 20% of the order, and the qualified ones were not even 10%.
If this continues, if the delivery cannot be made at the expiration date, the deposit will have to be refunded, and the same amount of liquidated damages will have to be paid, which is unacceptable under any circumstances.
So the ancestor of the baked cake decided to walk on two legs, on the one hand, he hurriedly sent a message to the assistant who stayed in the kingdom of Luoying, and immediately ordered half of the finished hemp ball from the descendants of the hemp ball, and on the other hand, continued to urgently hire a large number of technicians from China with high salaries.
Even if you don't make any money or even lose a little, you must complete the contract, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable.
The assistant of the Kingdom of Falling Britain received news that the other party demanded an increase in the wholesale price, citing that the existing manpower could not meet the target quantity in a short period of time, and the purchase price of raw materials had been increased.
In desperation, he had to take out most of the deposit he received and send it to the Kingdom of Luoying as compensation for the increase in the price of raw materials.
In a hurry, the number of hemp balls was finally completed on the day of delivery, and the ancestor of the baked cake also breathed a sigh of relief.
According to rough estimates, this transaction lost about half of his assets, and the only gain was to temporarily occupy the market.
Heroes don't make the first time, the ancestors of baked cakes are very sure in their hearts.
If improvements are made in all respects, prices rise a little and the speed is accelerated, the prospects are still very broad, and the financial resources are also greatly expanded.
However, the next news first made the ancestors of the baked cake like sitting on pins and needles, and then like falling into the abyss.
