Chapter 41: Don't miss the opportunity

The main purpose of Qiduo's visit this time is still for river clams.

The Stony Creek River is rich in aquatic products, and the production of river clams is abundant.

Bamboo shoots, on the other hand, are a seasonal ingredient.

It won't be long before the bamboo shoots are all out of the ground, and they will be inedible.

Uncle Nian replied with a smile, "Don't hide it from the seventh girl, that thing smells fishy, and no one likes to eat it."

In our restaurant, there is no such dish on the menu, otherwise, I would have opened my mouth a long time ago. ”

did not agree to accept the river clams because of the seven flowers and sixty wen.

The answer was expected, not surprising.

Qiduo smiled well, "Uncle Nian, although the river clam has a fishy smell, as long as it is treated a little, it will not be fishy."

Not only is it not fishy, but the meat is tender and delicious, but it is a delicacy that is definitely comparable to seafood. ”

This is not the time for humility.

The more tempting, the better.

"No, that thing doesn't taste good, where can it be compared to seafood." Uncle Nian shook his head in doubt.

"Uncle Nian, can you borrow the kitchen and give me two cups of tea, so that you can taste this delicacy." Seven requests.

Uncle Nian was embarrassed, "Seventh girl, now is the busiest time for the restaurant business, and the kitchen is so busy that you can't insert a needle." ”

pinched the sixty copper plates in the sleeve cage, and felt a little hot.

"Uncle Nian, I know that the restaurant is busy.

But all I need is some soaked soft vermicelli and green onions, ginger and garlic, and a steamer, which will never make a mess for you and make you embarrassed, okay? "Seven flowers don't give up.

This requirement is simple, and Uncle Nian breathes a sigh of relief.

"Okay, for the sake of the fifth young master, I'll make an exception.

It's just that you can't go into the kitchen, Seventh Girl, it's really busy inside, there is a partial kitchen, and there is a steamer available in it.

What you want, I'll have someone send it to you. Uncle Nian nodded.

"Uncle Nian, I'm really sorry for your trouble, thank you!" Qiduo happily thanked him.

Uncle Nian waved his hand, "Seventh girl, don't be polite.

By the way, who is that little boy who came with you? ”

"That's my brother Shen Nan, who is a classmate with the fifth young master of your family, hasn't Uncle Nian seen it?" Qiduo replied with a smile.

Uncle Nian's eyes flashed again, "It turned out to be Shen Sangongzi, and his eyes were clumsy." ”

The voice is a little low.

"Uncle Nian, what did you say?" Qiduo asked with some curiosity.

"Oh, it's nothing, Seventh Girl, I'll find someone to take you over, I still have something to deal with." Uncle Nian smiled and diverted the topic.

"Thank you, Uncle Nian." Qiduo thanked him again.

Then I went to talk to Tan Dejin and Shen Nan about making river clams.

Han Hewen's dark eyes widened, "Sister Qiduo, do you still cook dishes that our restaurant master can't cook?" ”

"Seven flowers will get a lot of things." Shen Nan spoke warmly for Qiduo.

Tan Dejin got up, "Duo, I'll help you." ”

"Dad, no, you can rest first, and I will do it alone." Seven flowers waved their hands.

Daddy hasn't done kitchen work, so he'll help more and more.

A young man named Lattice took Qiduo to the back kitchen.

The courtyard is full of fragrant vegetables and is mouth-watering.

She told the lattice about some of the ingredients and spices she needed.

There's no worry about your recipe being known.

Without the ability, the River Clam can only be a normal River Clam and cannot be turned into Seafood.

Qiduo took advantage of the lattice to get something, added water to the iron pot, put it in the steamer, and then went to the stove to light the fire.

Lattice quickly went to fetch the things.

The firewood in the stove was blazing, and Qiduo quickly got up from under the stove.

The restaurant is good, the vermicelli has ready-made soaks, and the onions, ginger and garlic are all cut.

In front of the table, Qiduo put ingredients such as vermicelli on top of the clam meat.

Two white porcelain plates were placed.

The water boils, and the saucer is placed in the steaming drawer.

After a cup of tea, the fragrance has drifted out of the kitchen.

Qiduo lifted the lid of the pot, took out a plate of steamed river clams with garlic, and went to the room where Shen Nan and the others were.

Entering the room, only Tan Dejin was alone, and Shen Nan and Han Hewen were gone.

"Dad, where are Brother Nan?" Qiduo asked.

"The steward came over and invited a few of us to eat on the third floor, but I didn't go." Tedkin told the story.

Seven nodded knowingly.

Uncle Nian was soon invited over by Gezi.

The river clam in the dish is red, white, green and yellow, and the aroma is lingering, which can be said to be full of color and fragrance.

Uncle Nian was amazed.

The eyes that looked at Qiduo changed again.

"Uncle Nian, can you taste it?" Qiduo asked with a smile.

"I want to taste it." Uncle Nian nodded seriously.

He took the clams and put them in a bowl and savored the flavor.

The first bite was just a little bit of vermicelli, worried that this dish was just beautiful on the outside, but it was actually difficult to swallow.

But after taking a bite, he thought he was wrong.

The taste is as amazing as the shape.

After nearly 20 years in the restaurant, he admits that he has tasted a lot of delicious food and has become picky.

But this dish made him full of praise.

Qiduo didn't boast about Haikou before, and he didn't say big things.

"Uncle Nian, how is it?" Qiduo still asked a little nervously.

Uncle Nian stretched out his thumb, "It's delicious." ”

Wei Pao continued, "The taste is indeed a must, but after all, the restaurant has never had this dish, whether to add it or not, I can't be the master."

Seven girls, I'll give the shopkeeper a taste and let him make a decision. ”

"Thank you so much, Uncle Nian." Qiduo thanked again.

Uncle Nian was not polite, and hurriedly took the river clam out of the room and went straight to the third floor.

With years of experience, he had a gut feeling that the shopkeeper would definitely agree with the dish.

sighed again, it is really unthinkable that a little girl from the countryside has such good cooking skills.

The Yuekelai Restaurant in Yutan Town is Han Hewen's second brother Han Helin's shopkeeper.

He was shouted out of the VIP room by Uncle Nian.

"What's wrong?" Han and Lin twisted their eyebrows slightly, and when they saw the river clams, their eyes lit up again, "What is this?" ”

"Steamed river clams with garlic." Uncle Nian should.

And told the origin of the dish.

Han and Lin pursed their lips and groaned for a moment, and entered another empty private room with Uncle Nian.

I took the chopsticks handed over by Uncle Nian and tasted them.

The clam meat entrance, Han Helin frowned slightly and relaxed.

I can't help but bow my head.

"Uncle Nian, what do you think?" Han and Lin asked gently.

Uncle Nian smiled shrewdly, "Second owner, don't you have a distinguished guest, our restaurant will deliver dishes for free, doesn't this show that we are sincere?" ”

Han and Lin smiled, "Cheng." The smile was narrow, "It's just that this plate is missing two, and it's not very good-looking." ”

"It's okay, the seventh girl made two plates, and one plate has not been touched." Uncle Nian is busy.

"Cheng, then bring it up." Han and Lin got up.

Uncle Nian hurriedly went downstairs to serve the river clams.

When Han and Lin were about to leave the private room, they couldn't help but eat another one.

The shrewd eyes turned, the corners of his lips hooked slightly, and he entered the VIP room again.

Shen Nan was also there, and Han Hewen was also there.

It's just that the expression on Shen Nan's face is a little solemn.

Some of the food doesn't taste good.

Qiduo and Tan Dejin waited anxiously for the result.

Finally waited for Uncle Nian.

However, instead of talking about the results, he asked the young man to come in with a meal.

Three dishes and one soup, the dish is braised pork ribs, home-cooked tofu, oiled vegetables, and the soup is duck winter melon soup.

"Uncle Nian, this is?" Qiduo pointed to the food and asked puzzledly, he didn't order the food.

However, this stomach is really hungry.

"What the third prince and the fifth young master ordered must greet the two of them, but they don't dare to slack off." Uncle Nian smiled and responded.

Qiduo didn't refuse, but just asked the river clam, "Uncle Nian, I don't know if the river clam has been tasted by the shopkeeper?" ”

"Seventh girl, don't worry, I'll talk about eating beforehand." Uncle Nian replied.

Qiduo had to say thank you.

After Uncle Nian left, Qiduo served rice to Tan Dejin, "Dad, eat quickly, I've chopped firewood all morning, I'm hungry." ”

Looking at the food, Tan Dejin was worried, "Duo, we are here to ask someone to sell something, and it is not appropriate to eat other people's food." ”

"It's okay, Dad, we'll pay for the meal then." Qiduo smiled and comforted.

"These dishes cost a lot of money." Tan Dejin still can't get off the chopsticks.

"The money we have on us is more than enough to pay for a meal.

It's just a pity that my mother and sister Rokuro are not here, otherwise, our family can have a good meal. Qiduo patted his sleeve cage and said proudly.

Tan Dejin nodded with red eyes.

The father and daughter bowed their heads to eat.

After the meal, I waited for nearly half an hour before Han Helin came.

But Shen Nan was still missing.

"Seventh girl, this is our Han shopkeeper." Uncle Nian introduced.

Qiduo hurriedly greeted, "Good shopkeeper Han." ”

"You may be seated." Han Helin had a warm smile on his face.

The complexion is slightly dark, with thin eyes and a long face, which does not look like Han Hewen.

Seeing people smile, unlike Han Hewen who always stares at him.

It's just that there is a shrewd light in those eyes, and Han Hewen's eyes are clear and pure, which is an essential difference.

Han Helin said with a smile, "The seventh girl is a friend of Shen Sangongzi and the fifth brother, although we don't need this river clam in our restaurant, but since we are here, then we will accept it." ”

Qiduo got up and stood up, and said, "Shopkeeper Han, thank you for your kindness."

You're open for business, not doing good deeds, and since you don't need river clams, we'll go.

If Brother Shen Nan knew about this, he would definitely blame me for being ignorant. ”

Qiduo's actions made Han Helin and Uncle Nian stunned.

I thought she would thank her happily, and then sold the river clam and left.

Who knew that she didn't accept this love.

Uncle Nian has another appreciation for Qiduo.

The little girl is not greedy, not bad!

Han and Lin also nodded secretly.

He glanced at Uncle Nian.

Uncle Nian said with a smile, "Seventh girl, it's okay, we have a big restaurant, and we can afford this little money." ”

"Uncle Nian, I know that the shopkeeper of Dao Han has a good heart and wants to help us.

It's just that we're here to do business, not to buy and sell, and we can't ask for any money we shouldn't get.

Dad, let's go. Qiduo said softly.

With a smile on his face, but his tone was extremely solemn.

The attitude is even more resolute, not as if it is pretending to be polite!

Qiduo knew very well in his heart.

Han and Lin Ruo just looked at Shen Nan and Han Hewen in front of him to ask for river clams, he didn't have to come forward, let Uncle Nian deal with this matter.

This is obviously a fancy to the river clams, but he uses the means to buy them cheaply, and at the same time asks Shen Nan to buy his favors.

A businessman is a businessman.

Everywhere will be calculated.

I really want to sell the river clams.

But if you sell it like this, you can only sell it cheaply, and you lose the opportunity to negotiate the price.

How much does a river clam sell for a pound, she is prepared.

Uncle Nian looked at Han Helin.

Qiduo and Tan Dejin stepped out of the threshold.

"Ahem, Seventh Girl, wait." Han and Lin coughed in disguise and opened his lips to leave the guest.
