Chapter 89: Two Hedgehogs
In response to Li Shimin's inquiry, Daniel Zhang waited for a while before saying, "This is pork." ”
"Pork?"
Li Shimin's family felt a little incredible, and Li Shimin asked with some interest: "Tell me, how did you make pork taste like this?" ”
"First select the half-sized pig before maturity, take the lean meat and cut it into thin slices, then add green onion and ginger to marinate for a while to remove the fish, and finally add salt to taste, and at the same time add kudzu root powder to lock in moisture.
After waiting for half an hour to marinate, put it in the bone broth and boil it, and put some monosodium glutamate to improve the freshness after cooking.
You can cook a big pot at a time, and when it's time to serve, sprinkle some green onions on top and float on it, and that's it. ”
Li Shimin looked at the floating slices of about half a catty of meat in the pottery bowl in front of him, and asked, "What is the price of such a bowl of meat?" How much does it cost? ”
"The cost of other things is not much, that is, MSG costs a lot of money, a dish is almost twenty Wen, plus the other a total of forty or fifty Wen, today the restaurant is three folds, and the price is three hundred Wen."
"Half a catty of pork, add some soup, and you will sell it for 300 yuan?"
For this price, even Li Shimin, as the boss, is a little difficult to accept.
Empress Changsun didn't care, "Look at what the emperor said, I think it's not too expensive to eat a bowl of meat like 300 Wen, you see that those people below are not short of so much money."
And they don't have anywhere else to eat such delicious slices of meat, besides, this MSG is already expensive. ”
"Niangniang said well, the restaurant business is very good, and there are a lot of takeaways every day, all of which are sent by big families themselves." Daniel Zhang said with a somewhat smug smile.
After that, Daniel Zhang introduced to Li Shimin and his wife that the production method and cost price of the two fish dishes are the same expensive, the same is a large pot dish, and the sales are also good.
In the era of high concentration of wealth, the most important thing in Chang'an at this time is the rich people, and these three dishes are tastes that have never appeared, and there are naturally many people who try them.
After eating, they learned about the operation of the restaurant, and Li Shimin and his wife finally went to the back kitchen to have a look.
There is a clear division of labor in the back kitchen, from the slaughter of a fish to the final pot, there are different people in charge, after cooking a large pot of fish, someone immediately came to take the pottery bowl and scooped it away.
A pot of fish is twenty bowls, and at the same price of 300 yuan, a pot of fish is six yuan, and there can be five yuan in addition to the cost.
Seeing that basically a pot of fish can be produced every minute, plus two other dishes, Li Shimin made a silent calculation in his heart.
Even if the price is now three percent off, you can indeed make tens of thousands of dollars a day, and if you sell it at full price, it will be thirty or forty thousand yuan a day, not nearly a thousand yuan a year.
If you go to Luoyang, Shuzhong, and Linzi to open a few branches, it is not by relying on such restaurants that you can earn more money than Datang's taxes.
Counting it, a cold sweat broke out on Li Shimin's face, this is still the few formulas that Yang Wenhua threw out at random, if you add other things, it will be terrifying.
Li Shimin instantly felt that the whole person was not good, and he only felt a mess in his mind.
"Holy Lord, Holy Lord, what's wrong with you?"
Seeing Empress Eldest Sun looking at herself with concern, Li Shimin wiped the cold sweat on his face, sighed and said, "I'm fine, I just can't figure out some things, what did you just say?" ”
"Is the second brother really okay?"
Seeing that Li Shimin shook his head and his expression had returned to normal, Empress Changsun said, "I want the inner government to come forward and open more restaurants in other places."
However, chili peppers and monosodium glutamate are too expensive, can the second brother let Yang Wenhua come to visit, I want to have a good talk with him. ”
While speaking, the group left the restaurant, Li Shimin pondered for a moment, shook his head, and said with a wry smile.
"There's no way he can come to Chang'an, you don't know what he made of his mountain gate for his own safety.
I heard that he rarely even left the trap area, let alone came to Chang'an, and I can't force him too much now, if he is allowed to go to Liaodong, it will not be a good thing for Yu Datang.
All I can do now is send people to guard the surroundings of his mountain gate, lest the family get some great secret method from him and cause something uncontrollable to happen. ”
Li Shimin now has a headache for Yang Wenhua, he can't kill him, he can't catch it, he can't drive it away, and he has to send people to guard him day and night.
For Li Shimin, Yang Wenhua is like a hedgehog that can heat up, Li Shimin wants to keep warm, but he is afraid of being stabbed, and he is also a hedgehog himself.
How difficult it is for a hedgehog to keep warm from another hedgehog.
"I just calculated and found that the price of the restaurant is almost at the top, and if I continue to increase the price, it will not be good for the restaurant's future business.
Therefore, the price of chili peppers and monosodium glutamate must be lowered, and the dishes of the restaurant must also be increased in order to continue to open branches, since he is not willing to come to Chang'an, then we will go to Lantian to find him. ”
Hearing the eldest grandson's proposal, Li Shimin looked at this wife who wanted money and didn't want to die, and was a little speechless, he now has to change places to sleep every night, he is afraid that a bomb will come down, and it will be too late to hide from him, so he will be sent to the door?
"Guanyin, you are too bold."
The eldest grandson smiled charmingly at Li Shimin, "It's just that the second brother is a wise man, and there must be a mistake." ”
"Oh? How so? Li Shimin raised his eyebrows.
"What kind of person does the second brother think Yang Wenhua is?
What about Datang?
What about your second brother? ”
"Yang Wenhua is just a man with no ambitions and a timid mouse."
Li Shimin was a little disdainful of Yang Wenhua's character, and after a moment of silence, he said: "As for his attitude towards the Tang Dynasty and me.
He recognized Datang, otherwise he would not have chosen Lantian to build a mountain gate, instead of staying in Liaodong all the time.
He should also approve of me, otherwise he would not have come to offer such things, instead of keeping them for profit.
It's just that this person not only has no awe, but also no allegiance to me, and I don't need him, and I can't use him. ”
"The second brother said that it was good that he had no ambitions, but he felt that this person was cowardly, but not really, from the fact that he dared to destroy Goguryeo alone, it can be seen that this person is actually a bold person.
To put it mildly, in fact, this person is in charge of dragon slaying skills, and the reason why he did not do anything disobedient is enough to prove that he agrees with me Datang and my second brother very much.
Doesn't the second brother often sigh that he has no acquaintance, this person may become the only friend of the second brother in this life, why doesn't the second brother give it a try? ”
After listening to the words of the eldest grandson, Li Shimin pondered for a long time, and couldn't help but think of the figure standing on the hot air balloon on the day he took Xuanwuwei to Lantian.
He can see him, he can't not see himself with a large army, if the identities are reversed, he will definitely get rid of Xuanwuwei at that time.
After all, that's already a war of arms.
