Chapter 004: Yangmei and Xiangfart
Wang Yue also secretly praised Zhang Yu for his open-mindedness just now, and asked him for advice on the so-called whole fish banquet, which was just an excuse to divert the topic, and he didn't want this kid to talk about the price in a blink of an eye. The pen & fun & pavilion www.biquge.info was caught off guard, and he almost rolled his eyes in choking.
Zhang Yuzhen said eloquently: "Uncle, don't look at me like this, it's weird." You're not short of money, but I'm crazy! It's also a showman, isn't it too much? ”
Although Wang Yue is good at food, he is not a glutton. After waking up, he became more and more interested in the young man in front of him.
Zhan Yan smiled: "There are five ways to eat these fish? Is it really that delicious? I don't know what the price Childe wants to ask? ”
Zhang Yu said seriously: "Since it is a business, I will give you a friendly discount!" Ten taels of silver for each dish, for a total of fifty taels. ”
Wang Yue's smile froze instantly: "Fifty taels?!" It looks like you're crazy poor! Do you know that Tao Ranju only costs eight taels of silver for a first-class table at the table? Who can guarantee that you are not exaggerating? ”
Tao Ranju is the best restaurant in Weinan City, and Zhang Yu really has no way of knowing the price of the dishes. But only ten taels of silver a year is enough for ordinary farmers to have enough food and clothing, and he still knows it.
On the other hand, this just proves that there are many wealthy households and businessmen in Weinan, and their spending power is strong enough, and the idea of selling their own cooking skills is feasible and very market-oriented.
Zhang Yu didn't care about Wang Yue's reaction: "Now I even have to look at people's faces for three meals and one night, where do I usually have any opportunities to go to Tao Ranju?" As for whether it's an exaggeration or not, you'll find out if you try it. There is a way to ask for a sky-high price, and pay back the money on the spot. The price is negotiable! ”
Wang Yue shook a shot and said, "You talk about it first, and then we'll take care of it." ”
Do you think I'm a three-year-old? Zhang Yu smiled: "I'm afraid this will be difficult for me to obey." The recipe for these dishes is not complicated, and it is not difficult to remember, and once you say it, it is worthless. After you eat it, you just wipe your mouth, but the cook of the cheap county government has learned a good craft. You just reminded me that if a restaurant of the grade of Tao Ranju pushes the whole fish banquet as a special signature dish, it must not be sparing a mere fifty taels of silver. In other words, I don't have to worry about running out of sales. ”
Wang Yue fumbled around for a long time, only took out a few taels of broken silver and a silver ticket from Zou Baba, handed it to Zhang Yu, and said stupidly: "That's all." If you don't want to sell, I don't want to buy it! ”
Zhang Yu took it and looked at it, together with the ten taels of silver tickets, it was only about eleven or twenty taels. Tu sighed: "I brought such a little silver, and you are embarrassed to say that you have a great friendship with the county lord!" Uncle, you can't help but kill too hard. ”
Wang Yueqiang resisted the urge to snatch the silver with his hand, and said with a straight face: "I'm here to fish, not to buy fish, what are you doing with so much silver?" Why are you so verbose? ”
Although the money is not much, for Zhang Yu, who is penniless, it is tantamount to a huge amount of money. Carefully put it away closely, and said with a smile: "It's better to get it early than to get it early, and it's better to get it early." It's a big deal, I'll find Tao Ranju and sell it again. ”
Unhurriedly, he said: "Your catch today, according to the size and weight, can be roughly divided into four categories. Small fish that is more than an inch long or less than an inch are fried until slightly charred and crispy, mixed with ginger, onion and garlic, which can be called a delicacy with wine. ”
"Two taels to half a pound of crucian carp, fry until golden on both sides, put a bowl of water, add ginger and garlic and cook until the soup is thick, if you want a thick taste, you can put an appropriate amount of dogwood. It is called yellow stew, and it is accompanied by wine and rice, all of which are of the highest quality. ”
"Crucian carp and carp over half a catty are the best to braised in braised cattle, so I won't say more. The biggest carp you caught today is three pounds, to say the least. Flying knife carp is delicious, but it is very particular about knife work, and after all, it is raw food, people with poor stomach should not eat more, take one side of the fish meat can be made into fish meat. On the other side, the fish can be made into fillets. The fish fillet does not need to be too thin, the slice is two fingers wide and narrow, add a little fine salt, rice vinegar, flour, egg white and stir well, and marinate the tea for later use. ”
"The fish head and skeleton can not be discarded, fried until slightly yellow, add water and a little rice vinegar to simmer, wait until the soup is milky white, put in a few pieces of tofu to boil together, depending on personal taste preferences, you can add ginger slices and green onions in an appropriate amount. There are two ways to eat the fillet, one is to spread it in the basin before it is cooked, and it is cooked by the heat of the boiling soup. Second, if you don't feel too troublesome, you can put the fish soup into the hot pot and eat it hot. ”
Wang Yue was dumbfounded when he heard this, and unconsciously, he had already swallowed a lot of saliva. After thinking that he had memorized Zhang Yu's words, he was stunned and asked, "Zhang Gongzi, are you really good at cooking?" Didn't you come from a poor family when you were a child? This...... Is this obviously unreasonable? ”
Zhang Yu smiled: "You just treat me as a talent." What do you think? Is it genuine, Tong Su is not deceived? You didn't spend these dozen taels of silver unjustly, right? ”
Wang Yue said solemnly: "Gongzi is indeed very human, I hope to do it for myself, don't make mistakes." I will do my best if you ask me to find a job. If there is no accident, within three days, it may give you a satisfactory answer. ”
Zhang Yu waved his hand and said, "Then Uncle Lao will bother." There's no need to be in such a hurry, I still have some trivial matters to take care of at the Yang family. You said that you would live in the county government for a month, and I would visit you at that time. ”
Wang Yue thought for a while, and said in a deliberative tone: "I came to Weinan for some trivial matters. How about we take it for 10 days? ”
Zhang Yu readily agreed: "Okay! ”
The reason why Zhang Yu decided to stay in the Yang family for a period of time is very simple: first of all, there is really nowhere to go except the Yang family. Although he unexpectedly got more than a dozen taels of silver today, it is half sold and half false for him, but it is not difficult to see that Wang Yue is also a half-truth and half-truth. Without stable and long-term financial resources, it will not last long. To live on the street for a moment of vindictiveness is tantamount to not being able to get along with himself, Zhang Yu will never do such a stupid thing. I have endured it for three years, and it is not worse than these ten days and half a month.
Secondly, Wang Yue is right, he is a destitute talent, and he openly peddles recipes, which is really unreasonable. can only make up a plausible lie, fake it to his cousin Yang Zhao, and give it a try first.
Third, Zhang Yu's feelings about the Yang family are actually very complicated. No matter what the Yang family thinks of him, after all, Master Yang is his maternal uncle, and he has three years of food and clothing. However, what made Zhang Yu very unwilling was that his stick was really strange, it was someone who wanted his life! The eldest husband stands in the world, and he should have clear grievances. Even if you decide to leave, you can't leave in such a daze!
Thinking about the complicated things all the way, I went back to the Yang family in a mess, and as soon as I entered the door, I met the third lady Li.
Zhang Yu, as usual, said neither humbly nor arrogantly: "Auntie is good." ”
Li ate the bright red bayberry in his hand with relish, and said exaggeratedly: "Yo! Is our family's cousin young master and Xiucai Gong back? It's almost lunchtime, and I thought I could save a few taels of noodles! ”
The cynicism of the Li family's yin and yang is really commonplace. In normal times, Zhang Yu just ignored it with a blank face.
It's also a coincidence, I actually let out a fart today not sooner or later. Zhang Yu pinched his nose and shook his hand again and again: "It stinks, it stinks!" ”
