Xie Ji Beef Hot Pot City, although only in recent years to make a name for itself, but it is extremely able to attract customers, just after ten o'clock, the guests have lined up outside the door, and most of the vehicles have been parked in the parking lot. Such a degree of heat made Sikong Yao a little surprised.

The workers also began to get busy non-stop, and countless guests were brought one after another, table by table, and never stopped. Because the business in the store was too hot, Xie Xin also had to join the front, because there were four workers on leave today, and everything seemed a little stretched.

It's not that Xie Ji Hot Pot City is unwilling to hire more workers, it's just that there are so many people in this shop that they can't even let go of adding another guy.

Sikong Yao shrugged helplessly and said, "This business is really hot." ”

Su Congshuang said with a smile: "Yes, the so-called catering industry has a period of rise, before I went to Foshan to learn martial arts, Xie Ji Hot Pot City did not have such a big reputation, it may be that after Xie Xin took charge, he improved the recipe of beef balls and introduced more delicious beef breeds to achieve such a drastic direction." ”

Sikong Yao also nodded, any catering industry, in this era when the aroma of wine is also afraid of deep alleys, must formulate a set of publicity plans, in the implementation period of the rise, it can attract many customers, and at the same time, it will also bring fame wider. However, how to retain these attracted customers. Staying prosperous depends on the cuisine itself.

At this point, after tasting the beef balls made by Xie Xin, Sikong Yao was not worried about this. That kind of beef balls full of strength can definitely keep Xie Ji Hot Pot City in this fiery atmosphere for a long time.

Xie Ji Hot Pot City's business starts at 10 o'clock in the morning, but it lasts until 10 o'clock in the evening, even in the afternoon, there will be a certain number of customers, so it can't stop at all. But it was after two o'clock in the afternoon. Business won't be as hot as lunch. Xie Xin can also take time to accompany Sikong Yao and others to Xu's house.

Xie Xin wiped the hot sweat on his head and apologized: "Ha, I'm sorry. It's a little late. Today is the weekend. Business is hotter than usual. ”

When I saw Xie Xin again, he didn't have the demeanor he had in the morning, and his whole body was completely wet with sweat.

Sikong Yao smiled considerately: "It's okay. Brother Xie has worked hard, he has been busy since five o'clock in the morning, and he is all wet, hurry up and change his clothes, otherwise he will catch a cold. ”

Xie Xin grinned, slightly embarrassed, and said: "This is not bad, if it weren't for some guests snatching away the emerging Huang Ji lo-mei, when I first started fighting the country, I was busy from four o'clock in the morning to twelve in the evening every day." ”

Recalling that when I first took over Xie Ji, in addition to improving the ingredient ratio of beef balls, retouching the workmanship, and specifying the marketing plan, I was exhausted. But now that I look back on the experience at that time, it is also extremely interesting, and Xie Xin can't help but let out a sincere smile.

After changing his clothes, Xie Xin obviously didn't pay too much attention to his dress, and went out with casual shorts and a T-shirt. However, the more concise the dress, the more it reflects Xie Xin's extremely strong figure, and when he walks on the road, even men can't help but take a few more looks.

When approaching the Xu family, Xie Xin suddenly paused and said to Sikong Yao: "When I see Xu Xuexue later, if he ignores you, you don't have to care about his people like that, there is no malice." If you like it, call him Xu Xuexue, he will be very happy with the name of the most. If you feel disgusting, you can just call him Brother Xu, and he doesn't care about these anyway. ”

Sikong Yao nodded, I'm afraid that for her, few people she has come into contact with these days are normal, so it's not strange.

The place where Xu Xuejiu lives is just a small shopfront in a remote street, and the storefront run by his ancestors has not been discarded so far. However, since the food is no longer sold, there are not too many visitors.

When approaching Xu's mansion, a faint fragrance suddenly wafted in the air, like sandalwood, but extremely delicate, with the temperature of a flame. Sikong Yao was almost unconscious, and the smell wafted into his nose and he couldn't resist it.

When Xie Xin smelled the scent of charcoal, he was suddenly overjoyed and said with a smile: "Haha, it's terrible, I actually bumped into us, this kid is probably grilling fish." ”

Sikong Yao suddenly wondered, "Huh? Didn't you say that Xu Xuejia no longer runs the cooking business? ”

Xie Xin nodded, and when he smelled the aroma of the grilled fish, the saliva at the corner of his mouth slipped quietly, and he sucked it back, his eyes showed greed, and he smiled happily: "Yes, he has long left the company to his subordinates to manage, and he has been collecting some cultural relics and antiques." But there was only one thing, and he would never pull it down. ”

"Is it grilled fish?" Hearing Xie Xin say this, Sikong Yao can also understand that even if a chef leaves the kitchen, his heart loyal to cooking will not change. Every chef has something to be proud of. For Yao Feng, the pinnacle of his recipes is the three-color wagyu fruit, and the hawthorn magic cuisine is also a masterpiece that he often remembers. For Xu Xuexue, who has left the front line of the restaurant, grilled fish is a work he can't put down in his life.

Xie Xin nodded, greedily breathed in the smell of charcoal in the air, and said, "Yes, although this kid is no longer a good cook, when he is in a good mood occasionally, he will grill a fish or two for leisure." Serve it with beer, it's just perfect! ”

Recalling the night when he was in the starry sky, on the edge of the river, around an oven, and drinking together, Xie Xin couldn't help but be intoxicated.

Sikong Yao gently sniffed the fragrance in the air, and in the faint aroma of charcoal, there was an elegant sobriety, and said with a smile: "It turned out to be bamboo charcoal, and it is an excellent quality alpine moso bamboo, and the age of the wood is more than ten years. ”

When he heard Sikong Yao's explanation, Xie Xin was slightly stunned and asked, "Does Sister Xiao Yao also understand wood?" ”

Sikong Yao smiled and said humbly: "Don't dare, just a little research." For wood and jade, they all know a little fur. ”

Bamboo charcoal is a kind of charcoal made from more than three-year-old alpine moso bamboo as raw material and fired at a high temperature of nearly 1,000 degrees. Bamboo charcoal has a loose and porous structure, its molecules are fine and porous, and the texture is hard. It has a strong adsorption capacity, can purify the air, eliminate odors, absorb moisture and mildew, and inhibit bacteria and insects. Contact with the human body can remove moisture and absorb sweat, promote human blood circulation and metabolism, and relieve fatigue. After scientific refining and processing, it has been widely used in daily life.

Charcoal has a long history, and the use of charcoal is an innate human instinct. From the moment when the thunder and lightning ignited the primeval forest and the naturally formed charcoal was born, our ancestors began to think about using charcoal to bring people all kinds of environmental protection and healthy life.

According to legend, a long time ago, many Taoists who lived in seclusion in the mountains achieved the Tao with the help of charcoal. They either used charcoal from mountain fires or took their own fires to burn charcoal, in short, they drank the mountain springs that flowed from the charcoal, and the grains and wild vegetables that grew from the cracks of the charcoal for a long time, and spread charcoal under the caves where they cultivated and lived on them. In this way, they have a crane hair and a childish face, and their voice is like a bell. And a pair of eyes that were originally a little dizzy have become bright, and they can even distinguish the red leaves of the maple trees in the distant mountains. They talk about swords all day long, discuss the art of immortality, and always live to be more than 100 years old.

Sikong Yao then explained: "Using bamboo charcoal to grill food not only has less smoke and pure aroma, but also can bring out a light and elegant umami taste. ”

Shui Ying nodded suddenly, and said, "I heard Sister Mu Lin say that once when they were on a mission, they found a Han Ancient Tomb, which was buried for more than two thousand years, but the skin condition of the Tomb Lady inside was still as if she had just died. The reason for this is because people placed 10,000 catties of charcoal in the coffin at that time in the tomb. It is the charcoal used to make the corpse intact, the whole body is soft and smooth, the skin is pale yellow, the muscles and skin are elastic, and the joints can bend freely. ”

Sikong Yao nodded, and then said, "This is also because the hygroscopic effect of charcoal inhibits moisture and prevents the growth of bacteria. Grilling food with charcoal can also effectively kill parasites in the food. ”

Xie Xin didn't understand these principles, so he just urged on the side: "I don't know about these, anyway, I only know that if we don't hurry up, it is estimated that we will not have to eat." That guy has always been someone who keeps things for guests. ”

Seeing Xie Xin's appearance that he was about to drool at that opportunity, Sikong Yao also smiled lightly, and then quickened his pace.

When the aroma can be fully enjoyed, the small shop of the Xu family is already located in front of them, a simple storefront, but thirty square meters, without many complicated accessories, but everything is available.

Looking from afar, I saw a person sitting on a wooden chair, bending his knees in front of a stove, fanning back and forth with a fan in his hand, burning the charcoal fire more vigorously, and then forcing out a wisp of hot air to edify the fish and meat on the iron net.

When he saw Xu Xuexue, Xie Xin smiled heroically: "Haha, it's really a coincidence, your kid is really grilling fish." Tsk, it's amazing, it's still saury, it's my favorite. ”

Xu Xuexuan was wearing a newly bought plaid shirt, his hair was slightly curly, and his hair was short, because he was often exposed to barbecue when he was a child, his hair was deformed by the heat, but he had a different kind of delicacy.

Although the facial features are not handsome, they are extremely attractive, and the only thing that makes Sikong Yao feel a little strange is that they can't be associated with the collecting habit that Xie Xin said.

Sikong Yao greeted Xu Xueyu and said, "Hello Xu Xuexue, junior Sikong Yao.
