Chapter 4 Can't get credit on account?
The recipe for braised vegetables is a gift, of course, it is not something that Zhang Yi feels he needs, if he can choose, Zhang Yi feels that it is more practical if he changes a pistol manufacturing guide, but the system is cold and does not work, which immediately makes him feel abandoned by the world.
However, it is better to have a recipe than no recipe, and the braised vegetable making book, which originally seemed to be useless, is also very useful at the right time and in the right place.
For example, now, at the moment when Chunfanglou is about to go bankrupt, even if a braised vegetable recipe can't make Chunfanglou make a fortune immediately, Zhang Yi feels that at least he can turn losses into profits and survive this seemingly unsolvable crisis.
The so-called braised vegetable production book is actually a spice recipe containing eighteen flavors of Chinese medicinal materials.
Not only that, the formula also explains in detail the amount and use of each herb to ensure that the brine boiled up achieves the best effect.
Zhang Yi still believes in the system's recipe for braised vegetables, after all, the system must be a little distinctive, right?
What's more, even if there is no distinctiveness, even if it can reach half of the level of the braised vegetable stall downstairs in his house in later generations, Zhang Yi also feels that this recipe can become a famous dish, especially in Chunfanglou, where small dishes are needed to accompany wine, a plate of braised vegetables with fragrant entrance is definitely the best snack.
Thinking about the deliciousness of braised pork, Zhang Yi's pace couldn't help but speed up a little.
For three months, I ate something that seemed to be gorgeous, but it was actually hard to swallow every day, and anyone would want to change their taste. Not to mention those who have tasted the delicacies of the mountains and the sea before, this kind of resistance to the attraction of deliciousness has become even more irresistible.
As the only male in Chunfang Building, the responsibility of procurement fell on Zhang Yi's head after the gradual decline of Chunfang Building.
As the saying goes, the sooner you buy fresh vegetables, not only can you buy a variety of fresh seasonal vegetables, but also have more choices.
For example, the huge pig ears hanging on the pork stall next to this are very good.
"Yo, it turned out to be Brother Yi from Chunfang Building!" From afar, he saw Zhang Yi walking towards his stall, and the old face of the butcher who sold meat suddenly bloomed like a chrysanthemum, and he inserted the boning knife in his hand into the board and beckoned: "What do you want today?" Pork belly, or sitting? Look at it, today's meat is good, how thick are three fingers, you are a regular customer, how about I count you twelve dollars a pound? ”
As he spoke, he lifted a piece of meat of about thirty catties, stretched out three fingers and compared the fat on it.
You know, although the world today is different from the earth, the trajectory of history is still the same.
For the upper class, meat is cheap and expensive, and pork is also called cheap meat, whether it is a literati or a wealthy family, they often disdain it.
Because they don't eat pork, they can also eat mutton and beef.
For the vast majority of ordinary people, high-quality and inexpensive pork is the meat they can't ask for, and if they can eat a few slices a month, it is also a rare delicacy.
Zhang Yi looked at Zhu Butcher's oily fat face, and then at the large piece of fat meat in his hand, and shook his head incessantly.
Not to mention eating such fat, he felt tired of panicking after a first glance, he came here this time mainly to purchase materials for making braised vegetables, is it difficult to buy such a large piece of fat meat back for oil refining?
Waving his hand and declining the kindness of the butcher, Zhang Yi pointed to the pair of pig ears hanging on and asked: "I am tired of eating meat every day, I think this pair of pig ears is good, although there is no oil and water, but it is also meat, isn't it?" You help me calculate how much it is. ”
Pig ears are actually just a fan name, strictly speaking, in addition to pig ears, they are also sold together with pig's head meat and pig's mouth meat.
Don't look at it as just a pair of pig ears, in fact, it weighs down to more than four catties.
"Great!"
Hearing Zhang Yi's words, I wish the butcher no nonsense, and immediately put the pig's ears hanging on the meat case on the scale, and said with a smile as the scales were flat: "Four catties, three taels and five cents, they are all old customers, I will calculate four catties and three taels for you, and I will calculate ten cents and one catty for you here, a total of forty-three cents!" ”
Because the meat of Chunfanglou has always been purchased at a fixed point here in Zhu Butcher, the price is quite kind, and the forty-three yuan is not only not a loss but also very cheap, and... Smoking Zhang Yi's money, I wish the butcher to tie a large bag of meat and bones with a rope as a gift.
"Exquisite!" Zhang Yi gave a thumbs up to Zhu Butcher.
No wonder the thirteen meat sellers in the West Market wish the butcher's stall a good business, mainly because people can be people.
A little bit of meat and bones, although it is not worth a few dollars, but as a gift can really make people feel comfortable, and this business will naturally make a lot of money.
However, Zhang Yi was a little depressed in his heart, and there were still too few pig ears.
Not to mention the entire Chunfang Building, even the seventeen little ladies in the building are estimated to be insufficient.
You know, the delicacy of braised vegetables Zhang Yi has personally experienced, in his opinion, even the imperial chef in the imperial dining room in the palace is estimated to not be able to make such a good thing, just a little more than four catties, after the marinade is shrunk by three or four layers, it would be good to have three catties on the plate.
Therefore, if you want to fully supply the braised vegetables of Chunfanglou in the previous year, one butcher is not enough at all.
But then again, because there is no oil and water, pig ears are still rarely bought by the general public, so the price is relatively low, and they are generally eaten by butchers themselves.
Without reaching out to pick up the pig ears handed by the butcher, Zhang Yi smiled and said, "Brother Zhu, why don't we take a step to speak?" ”
In Zhang Yi's thoughts, since the butchers are holding up their stalls to do business, this is naturally to make a few more dollars of silver, although this pair of pig ears is more than forty dollars, but it is not a small amount over the years.
Besides, even if you want to eat some meat, since you are a butcher, a pig comes down and casually there is no oil and water? Didn't you see that the butcher's face was fat and oily?
Therefore, to be able to exchange the unsellable pig ears for silver, Zhang Yi believes that all the butchers in the world will be very happy.
"Oh? Is there something wrong with Brother Yi? ”
Zhu Butcher was stunned for a moment, and then reacted.
If people are fine, it will be difficult to come to see his old face early in the morning?
And as an old oilman who mixes in the market every day, he also knows that Zhang Yi has to find a place to talk about it, it must be related to business, and it is very likely that he doesn't want people to hear it for some reason.
After all, although Chunfanglou is not very famous, but after all, it is on the boundary of Jiangning, as the meat supply of Chunfanglou, Zhu Butcher is still more concerned, I have long heard that Chunfanglou is not making ends meet, and I sighed in my heart, could it be that Zhang Yi, this kid, wants to find himself on credit?
