CHAPTER XXXIV

Pear blossoms are eaten while cooking, and the mood will be good for a while. It's just that Xiuxiu doesn't treat her as a friend, and she is no longer angry in her eyes.

The oranges were clearly visible, and she put a box in a small basket when she made the red in the mountains, "Send it to Xiuxiu." "This basket is made of oranges, it is small and delicate, and it is just right for gifts.

"I'm not going, I'm going to go by yourself."

"I still have to send it to Lao Huang, let's go to the village together."

Rika reluctantly followed her, she didn't want to lose Xiuxiu's friend, but she was reluctant to let her bow her head. I don't know if Xiuxiu is angry with her?

Xiong Zi went to the town the next day to find Zhang Xingxing from Donglai Restaurant, and he also brought a pot of wine with him. His father loved to drink this stuff very much, and he finally got a pot.

Although Zhang Xingxing's father is just a shopkeeper of Donglai Restaurant, he is suave. There are four or five concubines in his house, and there are even more concubines and concubines, and the lady of the main room only gave birth to a son and a daughter.

Fortunately, he is still the eldest son, and he is a descendant. His father was not confused to the end, he let him learn to do business since he was a child, and he also had skills and knowledge.

It was a complete accident to meet Xiongzi, and he didn't look down on this kind of gangster as a young owner. Because of the relationship between the Mao family, Xiong Zi often went to his uncle's house in the town, and he met a group of idle people after coming and going.

It was these idle people who saved Zhang Xingxing's life - his cousin was about to move, worried about the family's business, and wanted to cripple him.

was overheard by Xiong Zi about the conspiracy, and he thought about it and sued Zhang Xingxing. Zhang Xingxing escaped a disaster and wanted to take the money to thank Xiongzi. Xiongzi kept an eye on it and didn't ask for money. He was afraid that he would be found out by others because of the money he had told him, and his father and mother couldn't make sense.

At this time, Zhang Xinggao glanced at him. On weekdays, I take care of everything, and this time the bear came directly with wine.

Zhang Xingxing was never ambiguous in his business, and he originally thought of a random reason to send him away - how could the people in the village make wine?

After tasting it, even he was surprised, this taste was even better than what he drank in the capital, and he couldn't drink it in their small town.

He pondered for a moment, if he got the recipe and gave it to the owner, wouldn't he be able to replace his father as the shopkeeper? He also complained about his father in his heart, not to mention that he rarely went to his mother's house to rest, and even turned a blind eye to his cousin last time he hurt him.

"Xiongzi, I am not satisfied with you saying that this wine is good wine. But this late autumn, there are not many grapes left, and I have to wait until next year to use the recipe - how about I pay fifty taels? ”

Xiong Zi rolled his eyes, "Less shopkeeper, this is not enough for you." Since I can only use it next year, then I will sell it to you next year. This is my cousin's ancestral recipe, if it weren't for the sake of our brothers, I would have sold it to Qingbin Restaurant! ”

Although he didn't know how much the wine recipe was worth, fifty taels was too little. Last time, he told Zhang Xingxing that he was going to give him a hundred taels of miles, and he was very rich. If his grandfather hadn't let him leave town, they would have moved to the provincial capital long ago.

Zhang Xingxing took a sip of tea and thought about it in his heart. It was impossible to sell it to Qingbin Restaurant, and Xiong Zi still wanted him to be a backer. It's just that the price can't be raised.

"Eighty taels, no more."

Xiong Zi also took a sip of tea in the same way as Zhang Xingxing, but he drank too quickly and was scalded. Eighty taels, a square, almost a mile.

"I don't believe in my brother yet, no one will bluff me!"

Zhang Xingxing asked Xiong Zi as if chattering, "This is your cousin's recipe, why do you want to sell it?" ”

"My cousin's family is thin and too busy! But her cooking is delicious, no less than the chef in your restaurant! "He originally wanted to say that it was even better than the food cooked in your restaurant, but when he thought about it, wasn't this a slap in the face?

Zhang Xingxing didn't believe it, the chefs of Donglai Restaurant were all chefs recruited from the provincial government, and all of them had participated in the cooking competition in Beijing. Even in the provincial capital, it is famous for its deliciousness.

However, he still said politely: "In that case, go to your cousin's house another day to try her craftsmanship." ”

Xiong Zi took it seriously, "No need to change the day, I will have to go to her house to deliver the silver later, you can follow me together!" ”

He's still thinking about the oranges! If Zhang Xingxing went, he would definitely not be empty-handed.

Zhang Xingxing smiled when he heard this, thinking that there was really nothing else to do today, and nodded in response. Let Lao Chen go to the kitchen to pick up the chickens and ducks.

The two of them got into the carriage and went to Beihe Village. Many people who went down to the ground on the road saw that this carriage could only be raised by rich and noble families, and everyone was curious about who this was looking for?

Chi Dazhu and Zhao He were finishing up in the field, and when they heard the movement, they also took a look, and saw that the posture was going in the direction of their house, but there were only two of them living there.

The two didn't have time to put down their hoes and trot behind, there were no rich people in the Chi family, but the brother-in-law of the Zhao family had a little money, and it should be him.

The carriage stopped at the door of Chi's house, Xiong Zi and Zhang Xingxing jumped out of the carriage, and Lao Chen followed behind with things. Chen and Huang hurriedly wiped their hands, Xiong Zi pointed at Zhang Xingxing and said, "Milk, aunt, this is the young shopkeeper of Donglai Restaurant." Orange mile? ”

Chen's was a little cramped, and Huang let people into the house, "Oranges are going to give Lao Huang a red mountain in the mountains, just made preserved fruits, don't dislike the shopkeeper." ”

Zhang Xingxing is gentle and elegant, and he thanked the Huang family. Huang happily wanted to pat him on the shoulder, but his hand reached into the air and retracted it. Xiong Zi poured him a cup of chrysanthemum tea, "Milk, Brother Qi brought chickens and ducks over, and after a while, the orange came back and asked her to show her hand." ”

"Okay, you don't feel sorry for your sister!"

Chi Dazhu was very curious when he saw the carriage stopped at the door of their house. Songbai came over and said, "Dad, uncle, it's Xiongzi who is here." also led the young shopkeeper of Donglai Restaurant. He heard it clearly in the courtyard.

He felt very awkward in his heart, but he didn't expect Xiong Zi to really do this, and he sold Fang Zi to say the least for dozens of taels of silver.

Sighing, he had wanted to wait and go, but now he was eager to go right away.

"I'll go in and have a look."

Zhang Xingxing saw Chi Dazhu coming back, got up to salute, and talked with Chi Dazhu, and his words were full of temptations for the wine recipe.

Where did Chi Dazhu know this, Orange just said something, and he didn't know anything about the rest. Songbai, who came with him, chatted with him, and the two played Tai Chi with each other.

When Orange came back, he saw that Zhang Xingxing's face was half black, and when he asked for a long time, the pine and cypress were all vague, and he wasted half a day's speech. The bear's mouth was not idle, and half of the pot of preserved fruit went into his stomach. I didn't interject, just watched and ate.

Chen breathed a sigh of relief, she was not stable sitting on the side, and she was afraid of offending Zhang Xingxing, people have a big business, and pinching them to death is like pinching an ant to death. Huang asked her to go to the house and lie down, and she was not stable.

"This is my cousin, if you don't know anything about the wine recipe, ask her, no one else knows." Xiong Zi glanced at the pine and cypress, and swallowed the red mountain in his mouth, and his teeth were sore from this half-day effort.

Orange didn't expect Xiongzi to really do this, smiled at him, and greeted Zhang Xingxing. "I don't know what the shopkeeper is not clear?"

Zhang Xingxing asked clearly how much wine a pound of grapes produces, and the oranges were not ambiguous, what to say. Now that everyone has received the family, presumably this business is almost done.

Songbai added from time to time next to him, and it was quickly clarified. From then on, they could not produce wine, but could only drink it home-brewed. Orange nodded in response, their family has no power, and it is really dangerous in this ancient world where there is no human rights, so they simply sell the recipe to keep it safe, and they can still make money.

Songbai took the pen, orange dictated, wrote down all the places that needed attention, and signed and drew the handprint. The deal is done.

Xiong Zi can't do it in this regard, he doesn't know a single big character, he still admires Song Baili, he has never been to school and still knows words.

Zhang Xingxing took out another five taels of silver to buy the rest of the wine, and the oranges made her eighty-five taels at once. It's much more than the three of them who have worked hard to set up a stall on the dock for several months.

Eighty taels were divided into fifty taels of silver and thirty taels of broken silver. She saw the ancient silver ticket for the first time after passing through, and she was reluctant to take it out when she carried it in her arms.

The business was negotiated, and the family was very happy. Orange and Pear Blossom go to the kitchen to clean up the meal, and Xiongzi says that Zhang Xingxing wants to eat at home.

Their family does not raise ducks, she has never eaten them until now, and she saw that the duck in Lao Chen's hand was still alive, but she was very happy.

She's going to make a crispy duck, which is world-famous. Chaplin had eaten it when he came to China, and praised it as "an unforgettable delicacy".

The duck is not only steamed, marinated, but also fried and then smeared with soy sauce. Incense, to be fragrant, fragrant; Crispy, crispy and refreshing, crispy but not oily.

The skin is tender and the meat is crispy, supplemented by green onion white, sweet noodle sauce, and the taste is even stronger. This dish also pays attention to the craft modeling, the shape should be beautiful, the color should be soft, and it should be loose, crispy, soft and tender, and fresh and fragrant.

She put the duck blood on hold, and she can make duck blood vermicelli soup another day.

Zhang Xingxing negotiated a business and started the idea of pine and cypress. Just now, I didn't go around in a circle, and the reaction was fast, and it was good to dig into his restaurant and cultivate him as a henchman.

I'm afraid that he can't look down on a small restaurant with a high spirit.

Xiong Zi hugged on the side, "Brother Qi, why didn't you tell me to go to your restaurant to do an errand?" ”

Huang glared at him, "You didn't go to cause trouble to people, you didn't have to mess with other restaurants." ”

Songbai declined his kindness, and he planned to go outside. Oranges are so profitable, he can't work harder.
