Chapter 21 The aroma of wine attracts diners

Liu's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law gave birth to two children, and her husband died of illness in his early years, leaving three mothers and sons to depend on each other. Although Mrs. Liu has a lot of care, life is still extremely difficult.

The soy sauce process needs a spokesperson, and Liu's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are very suitable. It is not because of Yile's desire to save the suffering, but that Liu's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law have no way out, so they can only cling to the Liu family to the death. It is an indispensable prerequisite for the development of the soy sauce business.

When it was found that Liu's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were extremely skilled in selecting beans and washing beans, Yile decisively gave up discussing with Liu's mother-in-law the plan to make the original soy sauce.

Arrange the five large pans built by Liu Weng on the stove, and the soy milk has been ground and separated from the okara with a muslin cloth.

Yile picked up the wooden spoon and lit a little soy milk foam on each pot, as for why he did this, it is impossible to be exquisite, it is just his deepest memory, people make yuba before the soy milk is put on the pot, Yile thought this should be a ritual.

watched Liu Ren carefully divide the soy milk into five cauldrons one by one, and did not ridicule him, but whenever there is a fresh job, he will be respectful at first, and after a long time, all kinds of sloppiness and disdain will appear.

The soy milk is slowly boiled, and the foam is removed to reveal the steaming soy milk. As long as you wait for a while, the pulp skin will start to appear, and when the pulp skin is covered with pot noodles, you can pull the pulp skin into long strips and hang it on the bamboo pole.

After Yile demonstrated once, after explaining the follow-up details, he walked to the next workshop.

"Xiaolang, I found that when the white porridge is cooled, it will also form a layer of skin on the porridge noodles, is the reason the same?" Liu Zisang caught up with Yile and asked.

It is said that wisdom comes from life, and this is a good example.

"The first form of soybeans is solid, and when it is ground into a pulp, it becomes a liquid, and boiling it is to change its original structure, and after it is condensed into a solid, it will become another different thing, that is, yuba. This is the same as the principle of white porridge, but the materials are different, and the results are naturally different. Yile was in a good mood today, so he patiently answered Liu Zisang's question.

"And what if you change to molten iron?" The teachers like the students who can draw inferences from each other.

"I haven't tried this, I have to experiment to find out, but according to the principle analysis, it should be possible."

Human civilization is always progressing in some casual questions and answers, and it is not even a fart for the dialogue between Yile and Liu Zisang.

According to legend, Huainan is the method of making tofu, why this method of making for the benefit of the country and the people has not spread, it is unknown, maybe Huainan is not made of tofu, or the king of Huainan is self-cherished.

Yi Le Ke didn't care about all this, and decided to eat tofu tonight. It is also a good choice to eat a bowl of honey tofu before eating tofu.

There is no need to build a workshop to make tofu, you can make it directly at home if you want to eat it. Until the technology is reclaimed as valuable, Yile doesn't plan to get anybody.

Back at the soy sauce workshop again, Liu's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law had already dried the boiled beans, and it seemed that it had been a long time.

Seeing Yile coming over, Mrs. Liu's mother-in-law quickly greeted her and said, "Xiaolang, it's time to get to the steps you said and flour." The beans are already cold and dry. ”

Yile grabbed a handful of beans, rubbed them a few times on his hands and said:

"The cooking of beans is done in a good order, if you mix the noodles half an hour earlier, it will be perfect, Liu Po, pay attention next time."

"Okay."

In the north, soy sauce is made by crushing beans or using okara as a raw material, which saves fermentation time, but also loses the purity of soy sauce. In the south, the whole bean is retained, and wheat flour is used for fermentation, it is said that it takes three months to ferment alone, and the fermentation is done is to dry the beans, which are packed in large porcelain jars and exposed to the sun every day, and some aged sauces need to be dried for three years.

Yile doesn't plan to get the perfect soy sauce out all at once, people just need a beginning, and they will look in a better direction.

Liu's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are actually not old, they are only nearly forty when they are full, and after years of hard work and mental burden, people will look much older than their actual age. At the beginning of the soy sauce workshop, she could cope with it alone, making 100 catties of beans every day and putting them in the fermentation room, and when the fermentation room was full of beans, she should have to find a helper.

During this time, everyone in the Liu family seemed to have found the backbone and became busy all of a sudden.

Yile is still the most casual, because he feels that he has few days left to live like this. Once the Zhuozhou County Order is in hand, the real work begins.

"It's time to find a teacher for them." Yile stretched his waist and looked at the white cloud in the sky, which was still in the sky just now, and ran away after a while.

A teenager was also looking at the sky, but from his point of view, the cloud was still on the horizon.

On the surface, his cousin-in-law Song Qi was killed for offending the eunuchs, implicating himself in being dismissed. In fact, in the final analysis, it was he who affected him. If Uncle Jian Shuo had been spared, he would not have been retaliated against today.

"These eunuchs!" The young man scolded angrily, and then turned to snickering again, he actually forgot that his Azu was also a eunuch.

The world is really wonderful, because of the relationship between Azu, Ye Ye is in Jiuqing, and he also got a filial official position, he originally wanted to show his strength, but Kyoto was smoky, and the eunuchs were in charge, and the policies he implemented not only could not play a little role in the rectification of the dynasty, but offended many nobles, although Ye Ye did not lose his life, he was transferred to the Dunqiu Order, and now even the Dunqiu Decree has been dismissed.

"I am born to be useful, and I will come back when my daughter is gone." The boy fell in love with this article, and always felt that what was written in the poem was himself, so heroic, he wanted to get acquainted.

"Liu Bei, Zhuozhou Liu Bei!" The boy silently read the author's name.

Liu Bei also likes to enter the wine, but he doesn't know that this is his will enter the wine, of course, this is Yile's little trick. In his words, if he becomes popular, he will not be far from leaving this world. Therefore, this pot has to be carried by someone, and Liu Bei is the only one who can carry this pot and be safe. So Zhuozhou Liu Bei became popular, and fans rose up.

Uncle Zhong was very nervous, today is the day of the opening of the Drunken Immortal Building, according to Xiaolang's meaning, a notice was posted at the door:

I have heard that Zhuozhou local tyrants walk all over the street, there are countless people who know the fragrance and understand the wine, for this reason, the opening of the building is a big reward, where the bright money is 10,000 yuan, you can enjoy all the food and wine of the restaurant for free, there is no upper limit.

Uncle Zhong didn't worry about Xiao Lang's strategy, but such a straightforward notice made his old face red, if he hadn't gotten used to Xiao Lang's tone, he would have looked for a hole. He really couldn't understand that Xiao Lang would not come if he couldn't come on such an important day, it seemed that the banner could only be carried by himself.

The people outside have been watching for most of the hour, why hasn't anyone come in? Zhongbo began to worry, it would be unlucky to eat ginkgo on the first day of opening.

"Is there such a good thing in the world? A certain family will explore the way for you first. Liu Ping's voice sounded outside.

Again, everything has to be started by someone. So Liu Ping received the task of being responsible for the beginning, things are always like this, when Liu Ping touched his belly and walked out of the drunken immortal building and told everyone that he really didn't need money, the drunken immortal building was full.

"Drunken Immortal Building's signature dishes, rich for a lifetime, with a promising future, elegant seats and zero six private rooms."

"The first three seats in the hall are a pot of five sorghum liquid!"

"VIP 01 Wind Flower Snow Moon Package on the 2nd Floor!"

The cook took the five women and children to prepare the ingredients early in the morning, first making tofu, then braised pork, meat stuffed buns, and wild leek dumplings. Xiao Lang said that if he could sell 300 catties of braised pork today, there should be a few more people in the kitchen. This time, I must bring Wang Baoshu's mother-in-law out, and last time I promised her that I would arrange for her as soon as there was a vacancy.

The kitchen is divided into one percent of the profit a year, and the cook lady doesn't count, Jian Yong told her that one achievement is ten buns accounting for one bun. She asked Jian Yong, how many buns can a restaurant have in a year? As a result, Jian Yong also told her that if she could sell 300 catties of braised pork today, the kitchen would be able to get 500,000 yuan a year.

As a result, the cook chased Jian Yong and beat her, and if she dared to make fun of the old lady, she had to teach her a good lesson.

500,000 yuan, the cook can't take it seriously, now Xiaolang gives herself a monthly salary of 500 yuan, she should feel that the ancestral tomb is smoking, and she has 500,000 yuan.

Unbelievable is also Zhongbo. When he saw the guests in the restaurant, his heart was bleeding, how much money did they have to eat?

After closing and settling the account, he checked it five times in a row, and found that it was indeed not wrong, just like an unloaded balloon, sitting on a chair with a butt of 60,000 yuan, is this a day's interest?

He didn't understand this marketing routine, but when he received the money from the first customer, the rest of the people began to pay in full. The strange thing is that more and more diners walked in, so that later there was a long queue in front of the door, and Xiao Lang seemed to have been prepared, and a basket of small wooden cards in front of him was used to hold the wheel seat.

Every half an hour, he walked around the door with the open wine jar, which was the second task that Xiao Lang ordered.

"Uncle Zhong, if there is a long queue of diners, you can walk around in front of them with the wine jar, and shout as you go: This wine is too bad, pour it out!"

Uncle Zhong remembered that Xiao Lang's original words were like this, because he was distressed and dropped the wine, every time Zhong Bo just filled half a jar, anyway, Xiao Lang didn't say that he wanted to fill it. As far as he knows, this kind of rice wine called Wuliang liquid was steamed by Xiaolang with a large amount of sorghum, and the wine with the character of "60" written on the wine jar was steamed out less than four taels per catty, and how much food would be wasted if one jar was poured out! Iniquity! (To be continued, please collect)
