Chapter 18: A New Gold Mine Has Been Found!
"What? What do you say we're going to change? â
"Uncle, I mean, let's change the business project, of course, it's not that we don't sell our own dishes, but we want to sell a few more, which are the dishes that foreign devils like, very simple......"
"Simple? You kid just give me! I own a restaurant, so I don't know how easy it is to cook? Besides, when the foreign devils came to our store, didn't they say that they were all delicious? â
As soon as he woke up the next day, Li Mengyang came to find Huang San, this guy is now his future old Taishan, so it is easier to say something.
What to say?
It's very simple, Li Mengyang is giving Huang San an idea, that is, to change the business project of the Golden Scale Pavilion, to put it simply, it is to adapt more to the tastes of those foreign devils, and then make their money!
"Uncle, I didn't say that the current cuisine of our Golden Scale Pavilion is not good, I mean to develop some new things and make more money." Li Mengyang also understands now, Huang San, this guy is staring at one word, money!
"Make more money?" As soon as he heard this, Huang San's eyes lit up.
"Daddy!" Huang Rong next to her felt so embarrassed, her father was good at everything, but he was too money-conscious.
"Let's chat, don't mix with your eldest girl's family." Huang San is in spirit, and after Huang Rong finished speaking, he said to Li Mengyang: "Then what kind of dishes can be more profitable?" â
"Uncle, I know a dish, otherwise I'll make it for you to see?"
"You do?"
Yes, does Li Mengyang know how to cook? Is it that easy to cook?
"Brother Mengyang, will you?" Even Huang Rong's heart is bottomless.
"Don't worry." Li Mengyang is full of confidence.
"Yo, the so-called gentleman is far away from cooking, it seems that Brother Li doesn't want to be a gentleman anymore!" It's so lively here, so can there be less Xu Yingshi?
"Huh." However, Li Mengyang didn't say much, so he left such a smirk, anyway, in this era, no one will definitely know what this 'hehe' means.
No matter how many it is, our Chef Li Mengyang Li is about to appear!
Don't even say it, this guy is really dressed as a chef...... Apron.
That's right, don't get dirty with our newly bought clothes.
"Potatoes!"
"Peel!"
"Cut strips!"
"Frying pan!"
With a snap, the potato strips were thrown into the pan and then tumbled, which ...... After it came out of the pot, it wasn't so good-looking anyway, and it felt a little mushy, but anyway, our Chef Li still finished his own dish.
"Taste it!" Li Mengyang is very confident.
"......" The father and daughter of the Huang family, including Xu Yingshi, and the work of that gang, everyone made a total of mistakes, and for a while, no one dared to come up.
"I'm coming!" Huang Rong was the first to volunteer, isn't it just a french fries? Can you still eat to death?
"Ah, that's delicious!" Clipping one with chopsticks and putting it in her mouth, Huang Rong gave an evaluation.
If there is one, then there are two, so everyone came and tried it, and the result was ......
"It's not delicious!"
"Too ordinary, isn't it?"
"The eldest lady is a liar!"
"Who said it's delicious!" Anyway, Huang Rong will never admit that she is lying, although this fried potato strip chews a bit like a firewood stick, but it is delicious!
"Don't worry, what, this thing has to go with ketchup." Li Mengyang is still full of confidence, isn't this thing he made just fries, of course the fries must be served with tomato sauce, right?
Having said that, what is this guy Li Mengyang trying to do? How can you make a french fries, do you want a whole hamburger, fried chicken or something?
Don't even mention it, you can have hamburgers, you can have fried chicken!
That's right, this guy Li Mengyang is just making a fast food, making an American fast food in San Francisco in the mid-19th century!
Many people don't know what Li Mengyang's deepest feelings were after he came to the United States in the mid-19th century, and what was it?
That's the meal, Tinima's unpalatable!
In later generations, Li Mengyang read a lot of time-traveling novels, what went back to ancient times, and then ate what pure natural and pollution-free food, how fragrant, how delicious......
Pure Nyima!
How can it be delicious? Do you know how scarce condiments are at this time? There is no such thing as MSG!
As far as Li Mengyang's personal experience is concerned, anyway, he has been working in a Chinese restaurant, and he has seen salt, oil, sugar, salt is coarse salt, the taste of oil is very light, and the color of sugar is also very suspicious. There are also vinegar, soy sauce, and peppercorns, but these are extremely expensive, and it is said that they have to be transported by ship from the Qing Dynasty, that is, the piglets brought over, but there are more chili peppers.
Besides, the main material, it is indeed pure natural and pollution-free, that is, natural growth, then the vegetables are all insect eyes, the chicken is thin and can't even boil the oil, free-range, extreme free-range, the pig is considered to have some fat, but the meat is extremely test of your bite force, as for the cow, hehe, it is hunted directly outside, real game, North American bison, but the most important thing is to use lead bullets, lead poisoning is often occurring, the bison can weigh up to 1 ton, you can't deal with other bullets......
Therefore, the catering industry is definitely developing, otherwise how can the small restaurant of Huangsan stand?
Then, we have to find something that suits the taste of Americans and make a lot of money, of course, American fast food, it has to be!
The reason why Li Mengyang makes this fries himself is actually to highlight the simplicity of this fast food, you see, I can do it, what else can you not do?
So now, just wait for the ketchup, as long as there is ketchup, then this 'fried potato strips' will be absolutely OK, and Li Mengyang will have another reversal, but I didn't expect it.
"What ketchup?" The guys all looked at each other as if they hadn't heard of this thing.
"That thing, there should be in the foreign devil's store." Li Mengyang is very confident.
"What are you talking about? I've helped out in the foreign devil's shop before, but I've never heard of this thing. â
"No?" Li Mengyang's eyes are big, how can this thing not be there?
Without this thing, how can fries be delicious? How can you open your own fast food restaurant without this thing? Without this thing, how can you make money from foreigners?
Wait a minute!
"You guys really haven't heard of ketchup?!"
"What's that?"
"And what about the french fries I just made?"
"I haven't seen it either."
From this point of view, this San Francisco in 1855, I am afraid that there will be no such thing as zĂ i ketchup in this world in 1855! But this is the United States, the Americas, and there are still few tomatoes?
"Great! Ahahahaha...... "Li Mengyang laughed happily, it turned out that the lack of seasoning at this time was so bad!
"......" Everyone was taken aback.
"Brother Mengyang, what's wrong with you?" When Huang Rong saw Li Mengyang smiling like this, she panicked in her heart.
"It's nothing, it's nothing, come on, help me!" didn't say much, Li Mengyang pulled Huang Rong and ran away.
"......" and the others waited, and the two who looked away looked at their boss again......
"What do you see? Get back to work! "Huang San can only do this, but he also made a mistake in his heart, 'Is this Li boy crazy?'
Is Li Mengyang crazy?
Of course not, originally he was planning to make fast food and use this thing to make money from foreign devils, but now, he doesn't even have ketchup......
Isn't that fantastic?!
Tomato sauce is a very general seasoning for us Chinese, but this thing is too important for foreigners, especially Americans, who have almost reached the point where they can't live without this thing.
And the most important thing is that this ketchup is actually very easy to make, there is no difficulty at all, anyone can make it, no skills are required, there is no threshold, and even Li Mengyang, a guy who doesn't know how to cook at all, is no problem, he still remembers how this thing is made in a text he learned when he was a child.
Therefore, we only need to do the trade of ketchup, and then we can easily make money from foreign devils!
"Brother Mengyang, is this really enough?"
Huang Rong was pulled to the backyard by Li Mengyang, and then used a bunch of tomatoes, peeled these red things with hot water, then mashed them and boiled them with sugar, and finally added some vinegar and put them in a big jar, but this jar was boiled with boiling water first, and Brother Mengyang said that this was disinfection. But that's it, she's just giving Brother Meng Yang a shot, it's really not difficult, but look at Brother Meng Yang's expression......
It's exactly the same as his father's expression of making a lot of money!
"Sister Rong'er, don't worry, with this thing, those foreign devils will definitely go crazy to buy it, and this thing is paired with the fries I made just now, thief beep!" Li Mengyang's excitement even came out in the Northeast dialect.
Li Mengyang is not dreaming, because he remembers that a certain food industry giant in the United States seems to have made his fortune from this thing.
In fact, in 1876, Heinz in the United States produced the first can of ketchup, which is not worth mentioning in the long history of the world, Li Mengyang naturally can't remember, but this does not delay him from earning dollars now.
"Giggles...... "Seeing that Brother Mengyang was happy, Huang Rong was also happy, but people were angry, "Call people Rong'er again!" â
"Hey, hey, hey......" Li Mengyang naturally understood what Huang Rong meant, but, "Sister Rong'er, that later, Guo Jing's kid went to Peach Blossom Island with Huang Rong, on Peach Blossom Island, this guy is stupid, so he separated from Huang Rong......"
"What happened then?" As soon as she heard this story, Huang Rong immediately came to her senses.
That's right, how wonderful "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" is, Huang Rong has long been looking forward to listening to it, and she has been pestering her Brother Mengyang almost every day, at this time Li Mengyang wants to talk about it, she can be unhappy.
So......
"Oops, scoundrel! How can you say that Daddy is Huang Laoxi? How can he be so evil. â
"Shameless, say that you are stupid Guo Jing, where are you stupid? Giggle......"
"Then Ouyang Ke or Yang Kang? Which is Ince cousin? â
"I didn't say this, by the way, Sister Rong'er, why don't you look down on Brother Xu?" Li Mengyang changed the topic, in fact, he was just curious.
"Why are you asking this?" Huang Rong glanced at Li Mengyang.
"No why, that, if you don't want to say it, then forget it, hehehe......" Li Mengyang scratched his head.
"Giggle......" Huang Rong looked at Brother Mengyang's movements a little funny, "It's nothing, it's mainly their family's business, I don't look down on it." â
"What kind of business?" Li Mengyang was even more curious, this disdainful profession of a person doesn't seem quite right, right?
"Their family is helping foreign devils sell piglets!"
It turns out that it's this profession, no wonder...... However, this seems to be the international intermediary of Li Mengyang's era, which seems to be nothing, right?
Huang Rong continued, and the reason came out, "Selling piglets is enough to lose conscience, but they still go around preaching how good America is, how easy it is to make money, and how good it is, but they never say anything bad, and they never mention those foreign devils bullying us!" I think back then, this is how Daddy and Grandma came to America, and then Grandma ......"
The story in this, then I don't need to tell more, I understand it, the black intermediary!
"Forget it, let's tell the story."
"Okay!"
It's just that Li Mengyang and Huang Rong were happy, but they didn't pay attention to Xu Yingshi, who was eavesdropping behind the door and trembling with anger......
