Chapter 56: The showdown

Qi Shan was always surprised on the side, he really didn't expect Qi Jiuli to come up with such a novel way to eat, when Yan Chengtao talked to him, Qi Shan didn't react.

"Hey, it seems that Jiuli not only amazed us, but even your uncle was shocked." Yan Chengtao was a little puzzled.

"Shopkeeper Yan, this kid in Jiuli is a down-to-earth person, and I, the uncle, just have some emotion." Qi Shan's expression was full of pity, "If this child's father and mother are still there, where do you need her to think like this, just feel at ease." ”

"To tell you the truth, I, as an uncle, rarely see this child talking like an adult."

Guo Houchun rarely felt that a child was so eye-catching, and asked a few more words with concern, and when he learned of Qi Jiuli's experience, Yan Chengtao and Guo Houchun looked at Qi Jiuli with more love as elders.

Qi Jiuli lowered her head slightly, she had won a lot of pity, she didn't know how to deal with it, she felt the sight above her head, raised her head and smiled, "Shopkeeper Yan, Uncle Guo, thank you for your concern, but our brothers and sisters work together, and with our uncle and aunt to protect them, life will only get better and better." ”

"In addition, now there are new inputs, which can all depend on the care of Shopkeeper Yan and Uncle Guo." Qi Jiuli smiled brightly, and there was a faint firmness in his eyes, which shocked Yan Chengtao and Guo Houchun.

"We don't care about it, we all ask for what we need, it's also your idea, let's calculate today's first." Yan Chengtao looked at Qi Shan and said, "Old Qi, bring all the charcoal you brought today, and we want it in the autumn restaurant." ”

"As for the future, it depends on how well this fresh dish sells, after all, I am a businessman, and I can't do a loss-making business."

Qi Shan nodded again and again, "That's for sure, thank you Shopkeeper Yan, I'll go and bring the donkey cart over now." ”

Yan Chengtao and Guo Houchun took advantage of the time when Qishan went out to spontaneously roast meat and various vegetables, not to mention, they felt that in this way, everything was delicious, and they could be copied.

Looking at the two people in front of her stuffing meat into her mouth one by one, Qi Jiuli secretly swallowed her saliva, she had always felt that it was easy to get tired of eating too much barbecue, but in this ancient time when she couldn't eat meat and couldn't afford to eat oil, where was there anything to say.

"Jiuli, eat, you should taste the taste of your own cooking, Ming'er said that the spices are brought in, and there are a lot of improvements, the spices are big, you can get a good job, but you can get a considerable amount of silver." Guo Houchun said.

Yan Chengtao nodded, "The spices and new sauces you said are processed and made into new sauces, our autumn restaurant is fair, these two things will wait for Ming'er to taste the new taste, and then we will negotiate the price, as for the dishes you make today, I can only give you a price, after all, it is just a novelty, easy to imitate, and it will not be very high." ”

Qi Jiuli expressed his understanding, "Actually, the kid wanted to use these to sell charcoal at the beginning, after all, long-term business can guarantee the family's income." ”

"In fact, there are other dishes, like this iron plate, made a little higher on all sides, can be used to make grilled fish, the whole fish is cut along the stomach, marinated with salt, rice wine, spices for a while, put in the pot, fried on both sides of the golden brown, put on the iron plate."

"You can mix it with mushrooms, potatoes, lotus roots, old tofu and other vegetables, put it around the fish, pour sauce and water and stew it with charcoal, and the more the fish is stewed, the more flavorful it becomes." Qi Jiuli said.

"And this barbecue, in fact, the best thing is not to use an iron plate, but an iron mesh ......"

"Iron Mesh? Didn't all the oil leak into the furnace. Yan Chengtao said in surprise.

The corners of Qi Jiuli's mouth twitched, hehe, she forgot, where can the oil be wasted here, "Yes, that's better than an iron plate, so that the vegetables can be stained with oil stars when they are roasted." ”

"Jiuli, but there are still fresh dishes?" Yan Chengtao asked in a low voice.

"The kid knows so much, but with Uncle Guo here, what are you worried about." Qi Jiuli looked at Guo Houchun with admiration, and then looked at Yan Chengtao and said.

"Hey, you kid is such a talker." Yan Chengtao laughed out loud, looking very happy.

Qi Shan and Chi Lingmiao came in with charcoal, and Yan Chengtao hurriedly asked the guys in the restaurant to help carry it, and then weighed it, a total of two hundred and thirty-seven catties.

"Lao Qi, what is the price of your charcoal?" Yan Chengtao asked.

"Twelve cents a pound." Qi Shan replied.

"Twelve?" Yan Chengtao was a little surprised, "This price can also be bought in the shops in the town." ”

"It's the same price for selling it to others, our charcoal is very good, and there is almost no smoke when it burns." Qi Shan explained.

Yan Chengtao naturally looked at the stove and moved the barbecue iron plate away, the red charcoal inside really didn't have any smoke.

"Shopkeeper Yan, after all, this stove is going to be moved to the guest's table, and the charcoal must be used well." Qi Jiuli said.

"Okay, then Twelve." Yan Chengtao nodded, he made a look, and Guizi went to the front, and when he came back, he held a wooden abacus in his hand.

Yan Chengtao "crackled" for a while, and Qi Jiuli once again felt that he might really be a mediocre little genius in mathematics.

"I'll count you two hundred and forty pounds." Yan Chengtao said, "A total of two taels and eight hundred and eighty texts. ”

Qi Jiuli nodded, "That's the number." ”

Yan Chengtao was a little funny, "Oh, Jiuli not only knows how to cook, but also arithmetic?" ”

"Hmm." Qi Jiuli nodded confidently, she had a showdown, there was nothing to be proud of, "The kid may be a very arithmetic wiser." ”

Yan Chengtao was a little surprised, according to his eyes on people, Qi Jiuli was not a person who could talk big, "Then I'll test you, if it's one hundred and fifty-eight catties of charcoal, how much can you get." ”

Yan Chengtao handed the abacus to Qi Jiuli, Qi Jiuli waved his hand, thought about it and said, "One or two and eight hundred and ninety-six wen." ”

Yan Chengtao was dumbfounded, he buried himself in hard calculations, and after a while of operation, the number he got was exactly the same as what Qi Jiuli just said.

Yan Chengtao was surprised and delighted, and went directly to the front to get the account book, "The perch is nineteen pounds for one catty, one weighs three catties, how much does it cost to buy twelve perch?" ”

Oh, the elementary school math problem is here, of course Qi Jiuli has no problem, "Six hundred and eighty-four texts." ”

Yan Chengtao was stunned at this moment, "How did you figure it out?" ”

"One catty nineteen wen, one three catties, that one will cost fifty-seven wen, twelve wen, that is, six hundred and eighty-four wen." Qi Jiuli said.

"Yes, yes, yes." Yan Chengtao's heart was full of joy, and his smile was overflowing, "Lao Qi, your nephew is amazing, the accounts are calculated quickly and accurately, and he will definitely be able to be a good bookkeeper in the future." ”
