Ning Xiu didn't know what the fourth uncle meant by asking, so he replied cautiously: "Back to the fourth uncle, this hand-grasping cake is indeed the dream of Yi Yin's old man to his nephew. However, the nephew has improved the method, and others will never learn it. ”

Ning Jian smashed his mouth, and a greedy gaze shot out of his eyes.

But he didn't ask much, only nodded lightly.

Ning Xiu's meaning is very clear, only I know the method of hand-grasping cakes, you can ask your son to come to my house as a helper to make money, but don't think about the recipe of hand-grabbed cakes.

Old Man Ning heard the smell of gunpowder in these words, and hurriedly made mud on the side.

"San Lang, after all, you are a scholar, so leave this kind of thing to your father. The top priority is next year's township examination, if you pass the exam, what is the money earned by this finger cake? ”

Ning Xiu's heart sank.

Grandfather's words were not without merit.

In the Ming Dynasty, everything is inferior, only reading is high.

Xiucai already has a small status, and Zhongju has entered the gentry class in one fell swoop.

The Ning family has a total of two talents, Old Man Ning is counted as one, and the other is Ning Xiu.

It can be seen that Old Man Ning attaches great importance to Ning Xiu, so he repeatedly emphasizes that Ning Xiu should pay attention to Wen Shu, and don't be distracted by making finger cakes.

These words must have true feelings, not all to help the fourth uncle's family.

"The Father taught me. The grandson must study well and strive to be promoted as soon as possible. ”

Old Man Ning stroked his beard, nodded with a smile, and said, "That's right." Second, you have such a good son, you should cherish it. ”

Ning Lianglian claimed to be.

The old man gossiped a few more words, then found a reason to leave with the fourth uncle Ning Jian.

It can be seen that the fourth uncle was still a little reluctant when he left, did he also want to stay and work as a helper in Ning Ji Restaurant?

Without waiting to think about the dead ghost father, he coughed and said: "San Lang, what did your eldest father say, just concentrate on studying, and leave this matter of finger cake to Dad." ”

Ning Xiu said respectfully: "Dad taught me a lesson, but Qilang and Shilang have just come here and everything has to be familiar, are you busy coming over alone?" ”

"Stinky boy, your father and I have been like this all these years, you don't have to worry about it."

Ning Liang scolded with a smile.

Ning Xiu felt a lot of slander in his heart, if it weren't for the fact that he had made a lot of money by grabbing the cake, now this dead ghost father would probably have to hold a rolling pin and drive himself out of the house, right?

Read with peace of mind? Wasn't he driven to Wang's house to be a bookkeeper?

That's it, who let Ning Liang be his cheap father.

"Then there will be Lao Dad, and my son will go to school."

Ning Xiu nodded at Daddy, turned around and entered the inner room.

......

......

Although he opened the book, Ning Xiu didn't have the heart to read.

His mind is full of clips of getting along with Shichiro and Shiro.

Because of the poor family, the second room and the big room and the third room hardly move, but there is still some intersection with the fourth room.

Ning Xiu also occasionally catches birds and grills spearfish with Qilang Ning Yi and Shilang Ning Lian.

In general, these two cousins did not have a bad impression of Ning Xiu, and they were much stronger than this snobbish fourth uncle.

There is not much technical content in the production of finger cakes, and since the two of them come to work as helpers, they will definitely be exposed to the whole cake making process. Ning Xiu believed that with the character of the dead ghost father, he would not deliberately hide it.

In this way, it won't take long for Shichiro and Juro to learn how to make finger cakes.

In Ning Xiu's impression, the two are not the type to steal and cheat, but it is difficult to guarantee that the fourth uncle will not have different intentions.

A month and a half of silver money seems to be a lot, but it is also the monthly money of the apprentice of the silk shop, and after a long time, if the two of them are dissatisfied, and then the fourth uncle will leak the production method of the hand cake, it will be bad.

The dead ghost father has no sense of crisis in this regard, but Ning Xiu can't help but worry about it.

Finger cakes are now the only source of income for the Ning family, and the method of making them must not be leaked.

Brothers, settle accounts. Ning Xiu would rather give these two cousins more wages than steal the cake-making process.

It seems necessary to develop an incentive compensation system to tie these two cousins firmly.

......

......

I have to say that young people are a blank sheet of paper, and learning things is fast.

It took less than ten days to master the production method of finger cakes, except that they did not know how to configure the raw materials of the dough cakes, and the rest of the process was already clear.

The reason why Ning Liang didn't tell his two nephews about the configuration method of the raw materials for the dough cake was naturally because Ning Xiu had mentioned it on the side.

To be honest, living under one roof, it is impossible to keep the recipe of the finger cake from the two cousins permanently. However, Ning Xiu hoped that it would be a day to hide, and when the value of the finger cake was almost used by Ning Xiu, even if the two cousins knew the recipe, it would not be a big deal.

Ning Xiu's positioning of finger cakes is a fist product, and he can use it to earn the first pot of gold, and he will have the confidence to transform into a restaurant or restaurant in the future.

On this day, Ning Xiu had no intention of studying, and he, like all the people of Jiangling, came to the street to watch Zhang Ge Lao set off.

After leaving Beijing for three months and returning to his hometown to bury his father, Zhang Juzheng is finally returning to Beijing!

......

......

It rained all the time.

Looking at the dripping rain outside the window, Ning Xiu sighed.

After Shichiro and Shiro came to the store, the sales of finger cakes increased a lot, and the fame of Ning Kee hand cakes also increased.

Fame is really a double-edged sword, attracting countless diners and at the same time, more people with ulterior motives will target you.

In the past few days, Ning Xiu has found that there are many suspicious people who often wander outside Ning Kee's restaurant, obviously to spy on the news.

Compared to his brothers of the same clan, Ning Xiu was obviously more worried about outsiders.

There are countless big restaurants and restaurants in Jiangling City, if you really target this finger cake, you may not be able to use some shady tricks.

Shopping malls are like battlefields, and Ning Xiu doesn't think that these business tycoons will have such noble manners.

Walking out of the inner room to the stove room, seeing the two cousins kneading the dough by themselves, Ning Xiu smiled faintly and said, "Qilang, Shilang, are you used to living these days?" ”

Qilang Ningyi was a straight person, put down the dough in his hand and grinned: "Second uncle is so good to us, he is more used to it than at home." ”

Shiro, who has always been dull and silent, also continued: "Yes, we can't afford to eat meat at home, not to mention that there is meat to eat here at the second uncle's place, and we can still have half a piece of silver a month." You can also get a penny commission for each cake you make. I'm not afraid of the third brother's jokes, now the third brother is driving us away, and we won't leave. ”

Ning Xiu said with a smile: "You can't write two Ning characters in one stroke, we are all members of the Ning family, and if you say this, you will see the outside." ”

After a pause, Ning Xiu's face suddenly became serious and said, "But there are some things I have to say in front of me." You also know that the reason why Ning Kee Restaurant's business has become good is because of the finger cakes. Now there are many people who covet the recipe for this finger cake......"
