Building a house is not a very difficult thing, as the so-called money can make the ghost grind, as long as Zhou Yi can afford the money, no matter how strange the requirements are, the workers will be satisfied, after all, no one will have trouble with money.

Therefore, with the impetus of the funds, a brand new large house was erected within two months, and the exterior was still the same size as an ordinary house, but the yard was canceled, so the inside of the house was more spacious.

After the house was built, all the wood construction in it was contracted to Mr. Liu's carpentry workshop, the amount of work was not small, and the money earned was naturally objective, which made Mr. Liu praise Zhou Yi again and again for being sensible.

The warmest time of the year slipped away in this hectic preparation, and the season was almost the beginning of autumn, and from the beginning of autumn, the cold was about to invade, and it was getting colder and colder day by day. The smoothie of Daguan Tea is no longer produced, and if you still miss this wonderful taste, you can only wait for the weather to warm up next year.

In three days it will be autumn, and the Chinese have always had the habit of choosing good days and auspicious days, and it would be great if they could be next to the season.

On this day, the hot pot shop has been completely renovated, and even the tables and chairs transported from the woodworking workshop have been installed according to Zhou Yi's intentions.

The five words of "Daguan Private Cuisine" at the main entrance are written by a famous local calligrapher, the dragon flies and the phoenix dances, which seems quite imposing, although it is just a hot pot shop, but this strange store name is impressive.

When night fell, the first floor of Daguan's private restaurant was brightly lit, Zhou Yi, Zhang Zhong, and Mr. Zhang, Da Niu, Iron Hammer, several people were sitting together, discussing the specific matters of opening tomorrow morning.

"Mr. Zhang, first of all, thank you for your generous investment, a total of 10,000 yuan of financing, Brother Boya should raise 5,000 yuan, your woodworking workshop subscribed to 1,000 yuan, and I am responsible for the remaining 4,000 yuan, so our ratio is five to one to four, Mr. Liu, you don't have any opinion on this, right?" Zhou Yi looked at a brand-new ledger in front of him and said slowly. This ledger is a common ledger in the 21st century, and it is much more advanced than the ledger used in the Great Song Dynasty.

Mr. Zhang nodded slightly, at first Zhou Yi told him that he was still a little hesitant to buy shares, but in the end, under Zhou Yi's sharp teeth, he still couldn't resist **, and he willingly subscribed to a thousand yuan.

Zhou Yi continued: "Well, since this proportion is very clear, then the next means that the profit after deducting all the costs will also be divided according to this ratio, which I said very clearly, you have no opinion, right?"

Everyone said they had no opinion, and Da Niu felt that this Daguan private restaurant had nothing to do with him after listening to it for a long time, and he couldn't help but feel a little anxious.

But then, Zhou Yi mentioned him: "I account for forty percent of the shares, I will say it in front of everyone, and then I decided to hand over this private restaurant to Da Niu to operate, and I will give him four percent of the four ingredients in my hand, and our current ratio is five to one to three to one." ”

Mr. Liu is just joining in the fun, so his opinion is for reference only, and although Zhang Zhong has the most shares, his mind is not here, so it will not affect Zhou Yi's toss like this.

Da Niu finally heard that it was related to him, and he was immediately very happy.

"Da Niu, in the future, all the hot pots in this store will be handed over to you to do, I will teach you to do it in the next two days, you have to study hard, if you can't meet my requirements, I won't open this hot pot shop for you." Zhou Yi said solemnly.

Da Niu stood up suddenly and said excitedly: "Don't worry, I promise to be able to complete the task, if I can't do that, I will apologize." ”

"Gotta have it, don't say it so bloody, if you apologize for your crimes, then Uncle Hammer won't be able to pull me to be buried with you."

Zhou Yi laughed, then cleared his throat and said to Zhang Zhong: "Is the thing I asked you to make done?" ”

"Of course it's done, I've already sent someone to send it over, and the first batch of what you want, alcohol, also sent over." Zhang Zhong replied.

The alcohol that Zhou Yi said was only brewed for the first time, and the second time the wine was more than 40 degrees, which was brewed for the gods, and the first time Zhou Yi called it alcohol, and the alcohol content was as high as 80, which had reached enough combustion standards.

Zhou Yi admired Zhou Yi very much for such a vigorous and resolute action, and it is no wonder that he was able to take over the Zhang family at a young age, which is for a certain reason.

After explaining all the other trivial matters, Zhang Zhong and Mr. Liu left, and Zhou Yi stayed and began to teach Da Niu to make a warm pot. It is better to teach him to fry the base of the hot pot.

The back kitchen is large, the eight stoves look imposing, and the good ventilation makes it possible to avoid choking on oil smoke even when you are in the house.

"Today I will teach you to make a new trick, the first step of warming the pot: boiling soup, although there is a soup base seasoning, but it is absolutely not possible to use water directly! So you have to boil two pots of bone broth every time, why two pots? One pot is used as the base for the soup, and the other is used for the soup. Zhou Yi pointed to the two half-human-high cauldrons next to the boiler and said.

These two cauldrons are placed on the stove, and the soup is simmering on low heat, and the soup is milky white, this is the large bone broth that has been prepared early this morning, and it has been seven hours now.

"This is the best pork hind leg bones, you must also remember in the future, choose the freshest big stick bones with store meat slaughtered on the same day, the material can never be saved and exquisite, this is the key to our store can continue." Zhou Yi education.

The big cow listened carefully on the side. Zhou Yi continued: "In addition, there are yams and poria cocos and a small amount of barley. Poria cocos has a sweet and flat taste, and enters the heart, lungs, and spleen meridians. It has the effect of infiltrating moisture and improving water, strengthening the spleen and stomach, and calming the mind and nerves. Barley has the effects of reducing swelling, strengthening the spleen and removing dampness, relaxing tendons and removing paralysis, clearing heat and draining pus, etc., and is a commonly used water dilution and dampness drug. Yam has a variety of effects such as strengthening the spleen, tonifying the lungs, strengthening the kidney, and benefiting essence. These three ingredients are used in soup with pork bones, which is especially suitable for cold winter weather, strengthening the spleen and relieving dampness. ”

"This pot of soup is so good, Hengzhi, it does have yours." Da Niu sincerely admired.

Zhou Yi felt a little proud in his heart, and said: "This pot of soup is just the beginning, but there are many things, the more things you start, the more difficult it will be, if you serve this pot of soup well, you will be rich even if you specialize in selling this pot of soup in the future." ”

"Haha, I really want to cut your head open to see what's inside." Da Niu stared at Zhou Yi and smiled.

Zhou Yi suddenly shuddered, changed the topic, and said: "A good pot of soup is the foundation, but this is only the beginning, the taste is still hidden in the next things, you have to look carefully and learn it carefully." ”

"This is cooked butter, vegetable oil, sugar, bean cress, mash, ginger, green onions, tempeh, pepper, salt, how much I have tested, you just add it according to what I wrote above, next to this is the scale, there can be no mistakes, remember."

"Cut the ginger and garlic into rice grains and chop the watercress. Heat the wok, heat the butter and vegetable oil in the pot, and slowly stir-fry the watercress over a slight heat.

Add ginger, garlic, tempeh, five spices, Sichuan pepper and green onion and stir-fry until fragrant, add the mash, pepper and salt. ”

"Stir-fry these things into a paste and you're going to warm the pot. Remember the word I said, fry. Stir-frying is a cooking method in which the raw materials are heated and matured in a short period of time with oil over medium and high heat, and seasoned into a dish. Since frying is generally done quickly, the nutrients of the raw materials are maintained to a large extent. When cooking food, put a small amount of oil in the pot and cook it quickly on a high fire, stirring and turning the pot. During the frying process, the food is always in motion. Spread the food on the side of the pot, then receive it in the pot, and repeat the operation again. This cooking method makes the meat juicy and delicious, and the vegetables tender and crispy. ”

Zhou Yi kept the steps in his hands, but he also told Da Niu little by little, so that he could understand more thoroughly.

"Put the fried base into a warm pot in an appropriate amount, add beef bone broth or pork bone broth and boil on the fire, add the base if the taste is not enough, and cook until the flavor is strong."

Zhou Yi stir-fried the base, then took a warm pot, lit it with alcohol, and prepared a large pot of hot pot soup base. Then I casually found some seasonal vegetables and put them in, and after a while, I fished them out and gave them to the big cow to taste, and the big cow was stunned. In his own words, "the tongue is going to fall off." ”

Next, Zhou Yi let Da Niu do it himself, and he guided him on the side.

Da Niu said that he had cooking skills, and he really didn't blow it, the first time he made the hot pot base, it was very organized, Zhou Yi couldn't help but nod secretly, this is definitely for good seedlings, and if you exercise more in the future, it will definitely be for celebrity chefs.

Although the speed is not as fast as Zhou Yi, it is already remarkable that he did it step by step and did not make a mistake for the first time, and Zhou Yi did not ask too much of him.

After making a pot of base ingredients, Zhou Yi tasted it, although it was not unpleasant, but it was far from reaching the heat of stir-frying. After all, although the big cow cooks, it is basically stewed and cooked, so it is the first time that he can directly stir-fry in oil, and he can do it like this, Zhou Yi already feels that he is much more powerful than when he just cooked.

"Yes, keep up the good work, don't stop when stir-frying, and make a fierce fire, so that you can force out the flavor of the ingredients themselves." Zhou Yi commented.

Da Niu was very humble, he said: "Okay, then I'll do it again, I must sit with the same taste as you." ”

Zhou Yi smiled: "I believe you will do better than me, this thing is to see more, think more, try more, maybe you can make something with a different taste and more delicious." ”

"yes, got it."

Da Niu began to make the second pot, just now it was Zhou Yi sitting, Da Niu adding firewood, but now it has been turned around, looking at Da Niu's focused appearance, Zhou Yi believes that he will be a good cook.
