In the past, I often followed Zhou Hui in the kitchen in the first year of junior high school, and I was very familiar with most of the food in Wuweizhai. Lin Taohua took a few days before she was able to personally configure the core condiments of braised pork, and she also practiced a seven, seven, eighty, eight or eight in the control of the heat, so Lin Taohua completely handed over the kitchen of Wuwei Zhai to the first year of junior high school, and handed over the outreach matter to Zhang Biao.

According to Lin Taohua, the intention of making food is fresh, clean and delicious, so whether it is hot or cold, the meat purchased by the Zhou family must be killed on the same day, and the things sold must also be made on the same day. This article is not only written into the meat ** contract, but also hung on the lobby of Wuwei Zhai. Whether it is the people of Wuwei Zhai or the suppliers who supply the ingredients to the Zhou family, they are clear and follow the rules.

On the fourth watch, the butcher of Sun, who was responsible for supplying pork directly to the Zhou family, came to the door. The person who came was Sun Jingye, the second son of Sun Butcher, a seventeen or eighteen-year-old young man who was very strong, and when he saw that it was the first year of junior high school, he smiled and said: "Sister, this basket is heavy, you say where to put it, I will move it in for you." ”

Chu Yi didn't succeed, so he directly took him to put the meat in the back cutting room, and then settled today's money, and handed a bag of boiled small intestines to Sun Jingye.

"This is the small intestine that I cooked last night, and I just took it out this morning. This thing was taken out for sale for the first time, and I tasted no worse than braised pork, so the little brother took it back and tried it. ”

Since the Sun family and the Zhou family have done a fixed-point direct supply business, the daily money is stable, and occasionally when the business is bad, the Zhou family will take care of one or two and buy it all. Like this kind of braised meat that is sought-after in the city, they can also get it from the Zhou family from time to time.

Sun Butcher felt that this kind of food and clothing was the blessing of his ancestors, so he attached great importance to the cooperation with the Zhou family, and once explicitly ordered the heirs of the family not to make mistakes in supply.

The Sun and Zhou families have cooperated for a few months, and the Sun family has become richer and richer by relying on the Zhou family, and other butcher shops will inevitably find the Zhou family, and even give up a lot of prices, in order to squeeze out the Sun family.

Lin Taohua pays attention to honest management, and tactfully rejected the butchers who came to visit. After learning of this, Sun Butcher became more and more respectful of the Zhou family, and in order to cooperate with the Zhou family's pork purchase, he made great efforts in the purchase of live pigs, and the pork provided to the Zhou family was the top on the market, and the price was fair. Lin Taohua will not change suppliers at will.

Sun Jingye looked at the hot oiled paper bag in his hand, and said curiously: "Is it the pig's small intestine that Brother Zhang brought back yesterday?" Is this stuff delicious? ”

Chu Yi didn't say much, he directly filled a bowl of snow-white broth from the pot, and then took two sticky cakes and put them on the small table, and said with a smile: "I haven't eaten when I go out early in the morning, my wife taught me to make this belly and lung soup yesterday, count your kid lucky, eat it while it's hot and then leave." ”

"This, how can this work, sister, don't torture me." Sun Jingye waved his hand again and again, how dare he eat before the owner of the house tastes it.

Chu shoved the chopsticks into his hand: "My owner and wife are kind people, I don't care about these, eat quickly, if you spoil the food, my wife will be angry." ”

Sun Jingye hurriedly sat down and said with a smile: "Don't dare, I'll eat it, thank you sister for loving me." ”

There was coriander floating on the snow-white belly and lung soup, and it was warm and comfortable to drink, Sun Jingye quickly ate a full meal, smacked his lips and said that it was delicious, and praised the craftsmanship of the first year of junior high school only in the sky and on the ground, and provoked Chu Yi to laugh and scold.

sent Sun Jingye away, and the cook who helped on the stove hadn't arrived yet, so he was busy working first on the first day of junior high school.

The early morning sunlight shone into the house through the window lattice, Lin Taohua woke up faintly, turned over slightly and felt that her waist was sore, and the room where the fire dragon was burned was warm and comfortable, so she didn't want to get up more and more.

"Brother Ming." Lin Taohua shouted glutinously.

With a creak, the door was pushed open.

"The lady is awake." Zhou Ming entered the house with a cold body, rubbed his hands slightly, and then sat on the edge of the bed and touched her face.

"Cold." Lin Taohua slapped his hand away and shrunk her head into the quilt.

Zhou Ming smiled and said, "Come up, little lazy worm, the shop will be open for a while." ”

Lin Taohua glared at him, "Who is lazy, if it weren't for you, this girl would have made dozens of catties of braised pork by now." ”

With that, he got up and got dressed.

Zhou Ming hurriedly smiled: "Hehe, it's wrong for the husband, serving the lady for the husband to make up." ”

"Hmph, it's useless to be courteous."

After washing up and having breakfast again, Lin Taohua and Zhou Ming went to the shop in the front yard to take a look.

The guys on the counter are sold, packaged, and loaded with trucks, all of which were helped by Lin Taohua and Su Jinquan, all of whom were young people in their seventeen or eighteen years old and twenties, looking clever and honest. The account room is called Chengxi, nineteen years old, is a servant bought by the villa a while ago, because of the literacy and hyphenation by the Hu people as an apprentice, now familiar with Lin Taohua's account recording method, this time was sent to manage the accounts.

"Proprietor, ma'am." The guys saw Zhou Ming and Lin Taohua and hurriedly saluted.

Zhou Ming waved his hand and let them each do their own work.

Lin Taohua stood in the hall, looked at the orderly queue of guests to buy goods, and asked Chengxi: "What about Steward Zhang?" ”

Cheng Xi said respectfully: "These three days of opening rewards, according to the lady's instructions all kinds of food price reduction of two percent, there are too many guests to buy, Zhang Steward is afraid that the guests will not be able to buy the goods, so he will find someone to play the billboard." After the first sister reported today's supply, we could control the number of people in line. ”

"Oh? I didn't expect Brother Zhang, a reckless man, to be careful, but I didn't expect this. Lin Taohua raised her eyebrows.

Zhou Ming smiled: "You are also a mortal, how can you think about everything." Since there are Brother Zhang and the first year of junior high school here, I will accompany you to see the customized gift box. ”

Lin Taohua naturally had no opinion, and the two of them rushed to the Ju's woodworking workshop.

The young man in the carpentry workshop saw that the two of them were taken directly to the craftsman's hall in the backyard, and the owner of the carpentry workshop, Jia Fanyi, was on the scene.

"Oh, it turns out that Dong Zhou and Mrs. Zhou are here, please take a seat." Ju Fan let the two of them go to the inner room, and then let the young man serve tea.

Zhou Ming arched his hand and said: "Brother Ju is polite, I'll bring Neizi over to see the progress of the finished product." ”

Ju Fanyi is a man about forty years old, with white skin, two beards, a round figure, and a very kind look. After listening to Zhou Ming's words, he called a little apprentice to bring two sets of finished gift boxes over.

These gift boxes were ordered by Lin Taohua a few days ago to Zhou Ming, in order to create a year-end gift package for Wuwei Zhai.

The gift box consists of three gift boxes: large, medium and small. The large gift box is used to hold all kinds of braised meat, the medium one is for all kinds of snacks, and the small gift box is for candy and candied fruit.

Lin Taohua carefully examined the samples that had been brought in.

The gift box is inlaid in three layers, the large gift box and the middle gift box are lotus-shaped, and the top layer is made into a hollow semicircle. The lower two layers of the box are painted red, and the lotus petals are carved with auspicious patterns such as five blessings holding peaches, more than one year in a row, and Danfeng Chaoyang. The top semi-circle is hollowed out, and the color of the wood is just right to reveal the colorful candy preserves. The whole gift box is embedded on the table, as if it is a red lotus, which looks very exquisite.

The exterior was as expected, and Lin Taohua opened it to look inside. The wood-colored round box is separated by polished and smooth sheets, which is delicate and convenient. She looked down and smelled no paint or anything else.

"Madame is still satisfied?" Ju Fan asked.

Lin Taohua said with a smile: "Jushi is worthy of being the best woodworking workshop in Qiongya County, the box is exquisitely made, and there is no smell of paint left in it, I am very satisfied." Dare to ask the owner, how long will it take to complete the project? ”

Ju Fanyi touched his beard and said: "Ju knows that Mrs. is in a hurry for the past two days, and has asked his craftsmen to work overtime to catch up, and it is estimated that they should all be able to come out in the next two days." ”

Lin Taohua nodded, "That's very good, I wonder if you can take me to the scene to see?" ”

Craftsmen are taboo to be watched by others, and they are afraid of being stolen, so Lin Taohua also asked casually. If people agree with her, they will go to see the ancient carpentry factory, and if they don't agree, they don't care.

Ju Fanyi didn't think of Lin Taohua as a potential opponent, so after a little thought, he took the two of them to visit each workshop.

Ju's craftsman hall is very large, each master has a separate office, Lin Taohua followed Ju Fanyi from here to that, such as after visiting more than ten rooms, Lin Taohua no longer looked, smiled and said to Ju Fanyi: "Ju Dongjia, I have a little idea, I don't know whether to talk about it or not." ”
