Chapter 34 Teaching
Yun Zhu stepped into the door of the room, and saw Chen Shen sitting in a carved and lacquered official hat chair of Nan wood.
Chen Shen glanced at them and said with a calm face, "You guys are coming." β
He pointed to the same official hat chair next to him for Yunzhu to sit on. Yun Zhu sat down generously. There was a table in front of Chen Shen, on which there was a sea of pens, and the brushes inserted were like a forest. In addition, there is also a tea set, a chess game that has not been played. There is also a lacquered gold abacus.
It seems that the talent who plays chess will not be able to go long.
Chen Shen held the tea bowl in his hand and tasted it slowly, not talking to Yunzhu.
Yun Zhu was able to bear his temperament and looked around. On the east side against the wall, there is a Bogu shelf, on which are placed some toys and vases. On the other wall, there is a calligraphy treasure with a few big characters on it, "Feel at home".
After a long time, Chen Shencai asked, "Have you figured it out and decided to make this deal?" β
Yun Zhu said with a smile: "Shopkeeper Chen is willing to give the price, if you sell meat dishes for eight taels of silver, you have to sell almost three thousand bowls to sell enough." If you want to sell vegetarian dishes, you have to sell 4,000 bowls. I'm not stupid, and I understand it. Shopkeeper Chen is a happy person, and I hope that the shopkeeper will not break his word. β
Chen Shen smiled, turned around and opened a small box behind him, and took out a square plate from it, covered with a piece of red silk. He placed the square plate on the table and uncovered the silk cloth to show Yunzhu. Yun Zhu glanced twice, and there were dozens of strings of copper coins on the plate, different from old to new. They are all strung with red ropes.
"I've already prepared the money, and I'll ask for your recipe next."
Yunzhu nodded and said, "This is easy." β
Chen Shen took pen and ink again and said to Yunzhu: "Okay, you read it, and I will write it." β
Yunzhu said: "How much base soup, how many ingredients, and which Cheng dΓΉ to fry are all figured out by myself these days, and if you want to quantify it carefully, I can't say." Why don't you borrow your kitchen and let your chef watch from the side, I imagine that you can use the chef, just look at it once. β
Chen Shen nodded: "That's an idea." "I thought that in this case, Yunzhu would not be able to hide his selfishness, and it would be much more reliable than a piece of paper. So I hurriedly went to arrange it.
Chen Shen took Yunzhu to the kitchen at the back and beckoned, "Master Zhang, come over for a moment." β
"What do you command?"
"I'll come over when I tell you to come, and you're still grinding?" Chen Shen's patience is not very good.
Master Zhang hurriedly walked over, bent over, and said to Chen Shen, "What's the matter with the shopkeeper?" β
Chen Shen pointed to Song Yunzhu standing next to him and said, "This is Song Niangzi, I'll ask her to come over and make something, you watch from the side and follow along." β
Master Zhang said in his heart, he also used to be an errand in the palace, how could he be reduced to learning cooking from a woman, naturally he looked down on him. When he glanced at Song Yunzhu, he was stunned, with a look of surprise and confusion.
Yun Zhu also felt the strange look on Master Zhang's face when he looked at her, and secretly thought, could it be that they had met before? But she just wasn't impressed.
Master Zhang was surprised, and his words became stammering: "Okay...... Good. β
Yunzhu wanted to finish things early and leave early.
Fortunately, in the kitchen of the restaurant, all kinds of seasonings are ready, which is convenient for her to operate.
Yunzhu was afraid that the set of clothes she wore when she went out would get dirty, so she asked Master Zhang for an apron to tie, and then cleaned her hands and prepared to choose spices.
Spices, sand ginger, purple cardamom, long pepper, magnolia, cloves...... Of course, the bright red peppers and the new peppercorns that came out this year are indispensable. The oil is used for any cloud beads.
She said to Chef Zhang: "I have 20 bowls of base soup, and so on." β
Master Zhang nodded.
The mother-in-law who was in charge of the fire burned the fire vigorously, and she fried it many times, and this time she was naturally not unfamiliar at all. Master Zhang watched from the side, thinking that this girl is skilled, and you can see it by looking at her stir-frying posture.
After a while, the aroma spread along the smell of oil smoke, and there was a bit of choking taste, Chen Shen hated the smell of oil smoke, but he didn't leave, and waited until Yunzhu prepared the ingredients, and taught Master Zhang how to make the base soup and how much to match.
Chen Shen asked Master Zhang, "What she taught, have you learned?" β
Master Zhang smiled: "It's very simple, that is, there are more ingredients, and you may not be able to remember it." β
Yunzhu said: "I'll write it down when I go back." β
That's for the best.
After Yunzhu prepared the soup, he scalded two bowls of dishes that could be used in the kitchen with an iron grate. The first bowl was for Chen Shen, Chen Shen held the bowl, smelled the aroma, and thought that it was the same as the smell he had eaten on the side of the road, and tasted it again, the vermicelli was strong and spicy and delicious, it was this taste.
Master Zhang was originally a little disdainful, thinking to himself what kind of method this is, hot pot is not like hot pot, he ate two bites, his face suddenly changed color, this tastes good!
Wait until they're done with the dish. Yunzhu followed Chen Shen to the room of "Butterfly Love Flower" again. She wrote down the names of various spices on paper.
Chen Shen took it and looked at it, the handwriting was crooked, but he didn't dig much into it, it was already a great thing for a woman to be able to write.
Chen Shenhan said with a smile: "Please count the money here, please Song Niangzi." β
Yun Zhu glanced at it, thinking to himself that this shopkeeper Chen deliberately embarrassed himself, right? She may not be able to count all the copper coins even if it gets dark.
"Shopkeeper Chen runs a restaurant, there is always a son, please find one. Another scale. Chen Shen smiled, he understood Yunzhu's intentions, so he ordered someone to find it.
When the two things arrived, Yun Zhu first picked the copper coins of the same color together, then took the weight of the penny with the zigzag, then weighed all the weights with a scale, and finally did a division.
"Well, just right. Then I'll thank Shopkeeper Chen first. Yun Zhu took out a cloth bag that had been prepared a long time ago and put all the copper coins into it.
The mother and daughter happily left the Ruyi Restaurant.
Master Zhang came up to Chen Shen and said, "The shopkeeper really wants us to sell that hot dish?" β
Chen Shen frowned and said, "People also have names, it's called 'Mao Cai'!" β
"It seems that there is something inappropriate for us to sell the shopkeeper in the restaurant."
Chen Shen smiled: "I just think it has a unique taste, and if we can improve it, it will definitely attract a lot of diners." As for how to improve, I'll leave it to Master Zhang. β
Master Zhang suddenly realized and nodded again and again.
"Just now I looked at you from the sidelines, and there was something wrong with the little lady's expression, could it be that you knew each other before?" Chen Shen was quite interested.
Master Zhang hurriedly said: "I don't know each other, but I've only met twice." It's normal for her to be unimpressed with me. She had something to do with a friend. It's just that I didn't know that she had fallen into such a situation. β
Chen Shen was not interested in Yunzhu's affairs, so he said, "You can think about the rest of the things." Tell me when you have the result. β
Master Zhang agreed.
