Chapter 59: French Fries
Dongou City ushered in a heavy rain on the day of the spring equinox, and even though Qin Feng's cart came with a large awning, there were still many fewer students who came to eat kebabs.
There's no doubt that after almost a full season, beef dumplings have become less attractive to students than any other ingredient, compared to some guests who live far away who care more about beef dumplings.
This kind of scene is easy to explain: just like the residents of the capital who live on the edge of Badaling, they will never think that the Great Wall is a tourist attraction that will regret it for life if they don't look at it, and only Qin Feng, a southern turtle who has lived for two lifetimes and may not necessarily go to the capital, will think that it is a wise saying that if you don't see the Great Wall, you are not a hero.
Qin Feng had expected that the students would have this kind of psychology of liking the new and hating the old, and as soon as he saw that the market was weak, he immediately took corresponding measures.
On Tuesday morning, when Qin Feng went to the vegetable market to buy goods, he specially bought 20 extra potatoes.
The potatoes are all carefully selected, and the net weight of each one is controlled around one catty, and the size and shape are about the same.
According to Qin Feng's knife skills, a potato can cut about 20 fries, but it is obvious that if there are only 20 fries in a serving, students will never buy it. So in order to ship smoothly, Qin Feng very thoughtfully took out another 15 fries from each fries, and cut the 15 fries into 2 sections according to a ratio of almost 3 to 2.
Such a sharp knife, so that 20 fries instantly turned into 40, the cost did not add half a penny, and increasing the number is secondary, more critical, Qin Feng believes that this kind of treatment can be extremely effective in bringing customers a good dining experience——
Imagine what it would be like to have a pack of cheap fries, not only in terms of quality and quality as the fries in a regular fast food restaurant, but also slightly in quantity compared to a regular fast food restaurant, and there are several "extremely long" fries in it......
The carton used to hold French fries is a special carton that Qin Feng prepared last week. The carton is not cheap, 5 cents a piece, and the input is 5 times that of the bamboo skewer, not to mention that when the time comes, you have to add another bamboo skewer for eating, which is equivalent to 6 times the cost.
In view of the high additional cost of French fries, Qin Feng frantically set the price at three yuan a piece.
When I went out on Tuesday afternoon, there was a new member on the price list on the glass cover of the cart - French fries, 3 yuan a piece.
In front of the ruins of the back alley of the 18th Middle School, because of the various fly ashes produced by the demolition, after a few rains in the past few days, it has almost precipitated. The weeds growing in the ruins make this place look like human relics, and this fresh scene makes the number of students passing through here increase after the demolition of the back alley of the 18th Middle School.
Qin Feng parked the cart in front of the relatively open "haunted house", which was seventy or eighty meters away from the kebab aunt, completely putting an end to the bad feelings that were easy to break out among peers.
After the old female pork incident, the skewer aunt was very keen to seize the opportunity and launched the authentic pork stuffed dumplings, which is to take the traditional dumplings and fry them directly, selling a piece of Wuyi skewers, according to the cost, it is simply too black not to want, but the students are easy to make cheap, some students who don't like to eat dumplings at all on weekdays, actually said that the dumplings of the skewer aunt have a special taste, which is not only good for health, but the most important thing is that each skewer is cheaper than Qin Feng's 5 cents.
Qin Feng once again repeated the mistake of fighting with Brother Roar, and was robbed of many regular customers by the skewer aunt.
After 3:30, there were not many parents who came to pick up their children in the back alley of No. 18 Middle School, because the road conditions were too poor, most of the parents of nearby primary school students now like to walk from the main road.
However, fortunately, parents in this small place in Dongou City still have a stocking policy at this stage in 04, so after school, the vast majority of children still go home alone.
Qin Feng waited until more than 4 o'clock, and a few small black dots finally appeared on the ruins in the distance.
The elementary school bear children who got out of school were happily frolicking between the reinforced concrete, shouting all kinds of childish and innocent words in their mouths, and slowly approached Qin Feng's stall.
The bear children were all very familiar with Qin Feng, and when they saw Qin Feng putting the stall in such an unlucky location today, they suddenly became curious, their eyes were full of excitement and excitement, and they asked: "Brother Nan, this house behind you is a haunted house, aren't you afraid?"
Qin Feng said: "Of course I'm afraid. ”
The bear child was puzzled and asked, "I'm afraid you're still putting your stall here?"
"Apart from here, is there any other place on the road where I can set up a stall?" Qin Feng asked rhetorically.
The bear children looked around and found that there was really no more suitable stall than here, and couldn't help but admire: "Brother Nan, you really want money and don't want to die......
"Don't say that, I came to sell skewers mainly because I have a heart to serve the people. Qin Feng said casually.
The bear children, whose laughter is far less than that of later generations, laughed when they heard it.
Qin Feng took the opportunity to sell: "I made some new fries, do you want to taste them?"
"Is it free?"
Qin Feng smiled and said in a tone like a free gift: "It's very cheap, only 3 yuan." ”
The three bear children immediately put away their smiles, feeling that their IQ had been insulted.
"3 dollars is still cheap, where is it cheap?"
"That's it, it's the same price as the big row!"
"Brother Nan, it's a crime to deceive children......"
Qin Fengquan didn't hear it, and continued to sell: "KFC's small fries are 6 pieces and 5 pieces a pack, the taste is the same as mine, and the things are not as many as I have here, don't you still eat very good?"
This is reasonable, a few bear children compared a little, and the psychology of taking advantage in their hearts has been awakened by Qin Feng, and the three of them looked at each other, and they all saw the thoughts of the fries in each other's eyes.
After a short ideological struggle, the three bear children didn't care about face and made up a bag of fries for a dollar each.
Qin Feng took the money with a smile, reheated the fries, took them out and drained them after more than ten seconds, sprinkled them with a little salt, and after bagging, he rarely generously gave two more bamboo sticks and handed them to the bear child standing in the middle.
The bear child took the hot fries and took a deep breath with an exaggerated expression, and the two companions next to him couldn't wait to take the bamboo skewers and fork the fries immediately.
No matter anything, rushing to eat it can always multiply the deliciousness, plus Qin Feng's cooking techniques were learned from A Qinglou, and the quality was quite excellent, so a small bag of French fries, within two minutes, was robbed.
The bear children only ate a dozen sticks by themselves, and naturally they were still unsatisfied, and after walking more than ten meters, they discussed, and trotted back, and said loudly: "Brother Nan, another pack!"
Another wave of primary school students happened to come to the side, and when they heard this, they couldn't help but be surprised: "Brother Nan also has another package of activities here?"
Qin Feng hurriedly explained: "He meant to buy another pack." As he spoke, he took out the fries from the glass cover.
The new elementary school students couldn't help but wonder, "Are these fries?"
"Yes. Qin Feng replied.
The new elementary school student asked nonsense, "Does it taste good?"
The bear child who had just turned back immediately rushed to answer: "Excellent!"
