Chapter Seventy-Three: Look at the New Year's Pig
"Go buy the spices on the list." Chef Lin frowned and said to the procurement office, "Hand over the money for the fish." ”
Reluctantly, the procurement took out two taels of silver, handed it to Chef Lin, and then glanced at Qin Rong coldly, snorted, and left.
"Little girl, this cart of fish, we want it in our restaurant."
Coincidentally, fish is the main product of his restaurant, so there is a large demand for fish, but I don't know if it is a problem with cooking skills, or the fish is really not good to sell, and the business of the hotel has not been good.
Even, his family's main fish meat can't compete with other big restaurants that use fish as an ingredient.
So he decided, try to find wild fish, so that the taste will be more delicious, there is really no way, the use of domestic fish, for this special supply channels are also cut off, do not spend a little more effort, how can you buy the fish you want.
When encountering such words, Lin Yin's heart was overjoyed, and Wan's lips were also hooked.
Chef Lin specially asked people to weigh the fish, a total of one hundred and five catties, the extra five catties, Qin Rong generously gave it away, and Chef Lin had a smile on his face, this girl is real.
opened a list and handed it to Lin Yin, "Go to the counter and get the silver." ”
100 catties, 15 wen yuan per catty, a total of 1,500 wen, plus the one sold earlier, 80 catties of sea bass and mandarin fish, 1,440 wen, 120 catties of other fish, 1,800 wen, 120 handfuls of wild vegetables, a handful of three wen, 360 wen, a total of 5,100 wen, the total is 5 taels of silver plus 100 wen.
So much money, it is the income of those who call people a little more for a year, and they can buy a lot of things, if it is not to survive the cold wave, Qin Rong plans to save to build a house.
The mother and daughter were happy in their hearts.
"Drop, congratulations to the host for selling out the three hundred catties of fish and getting twenty points, and the current points are minus eighty." Small day newspaper points.
Negative eighty, the corners of Qin Rong's mouth twitched, when will her points become positive?
When he was about to leave, Qin Rong glanced at the dining table, almost in the middle of each table, there was a large plate or a large bowl of fish meat, it seems that fish meat is the main product of this hospitable restaurant, just look at these dishes, either steamed, braised or boiled fish soup, a bit single, it is okay to eat home-cooked food, but it should be sold as a main dish, and other restaurants can also do it, it is difficult to form characteristics, and the business cannot be prosperous, it is normal.
Qin Rong sighed in his heart and shook his head slightly.
However, her small action was seen by Chef Lin, and he guessed at the moment, could it be that this girl has some way? After all, no one can catch so many wild fish like her, she must be a smart girl.
"Girl, do you have anything to say?" Chef Lin took out a gesture of humbly asking for advice.
Qin Rong hooked the corners of his mouth, "I have a way to make your restaurant business better, but I can't tell you in vain."
Sure enough, Chef Lin smiled, "It seems that the girl is going to exchange with me." ”
"It's so, it's also mutually beneficial, and it's all good for us, isn't it?"
Chef Lin was silent for a moment, "Then you have to be able to do it first." ”
"Well, you can do what I say first, and if it works, I have other ideas." Qin Rong said, "Do you have paper and pen?" ”
Chef Lin turned his head and ordered, "Bring the paper and pen." ”
The paper and pen were prepared, and Qin Rong wrote on it a method of inlaid fish and tofu, "Like braised steamed and boiled fish, other families also have it, those big restaurants are rich in silver, and the ingredients and seasonings prepared are all of the highest quality, even if the price of your house is a little lower, it may not be able to compete with others, besides, the business does not rely on price reduction, the most important thing is the taste." ”
Chef Lin felt that she was right, nodded his head, and looked at the recipe again, feeling a little novel, but he couldn't tell the taste for a while, "Is this really delicious?" ”
"You can try it and you'll know, if it sells well, I'll talk about the conditions." Doing business, wanting to gain the trust of the other party, Qin Rong is not in a hurry.
"Okay, then I'll make a few dishes and see the feedback from the guests." Chef Lin put the recipe away, "But girl, I want to know what your conditions are now." ”
Qin Rong said, "Let's wait a little longer, I will come again next day." "If her method doesn't work, there's no need to say it.
She had a sense of crisis, this time she sold so much money, those villagers must be even more unhappy in their hearts, and sooner or later they will protest with him.
Sold so much in one street, and still got it in a year? The river was not her own either, although she had her own way, whoever caught it would belong to whomever she caught, but the countryside was originally a barbaric and unreasonable place, and she had to plan for her own future.
The fish was sold out, and the mother and daughter purchased a lot of ingredients, including dried shrimp, dried beans, dried bamboo shoots, plum vegetables, etc., which were all preparations for the cold wave, and when the cold wave came, the price of these dried vegetables would definitely skyrocket, and it was not something that a few rural families could afford.
In addition to these, I also bought a lot of rice and noodles, and added ten catties of fine noodles, which cost thirty yuan a catty, which is more expensive than pork, but the cakes made are much more delicious than coarse noodles, which is a small luxury.
Qin Rong weighed his weight, Wan remembered, and bought a few pairs of soles, saying that he would make shoes for the state guys.
"Mother, if you want to kill the New Year pig for the New Year, let's go see the New Year pig." Qin Rong said.
Things that she didn't even dare to think about before, but now she is so close to herself, her heart is bubbling with joy.
"Killing the New Year's pig, yes, my mother almost thought that she couldn't kill it today." Wan Shi said with relief that he could only watch other families have pork to eat, and this kind of taste was uncomfortable for anyone.
"We bought the New Year's pig in advance, killed it, and were prepared." Qin Rong said that when the cold wave comes, a large number of pigs will die, and the price of pigs will rise, and many people who have not had time to slaughter New Year's pigs will not be able to eat pork at all.
The people who sell New Year's pigs are generally butchers who specialize in killing pigs and selling them.
There was a butcher's stall where the pork was sold out, and the butcher was cleaning up the stall, she walked over, "Uncle, do you have any pigs for sale?" ”
The butcher looked her up and down, and saw that she was dressed in shabby clothes, "Little girl, you don't want to buy a whole head, do you?" ”
A year-old pig is between 200 catties and 400 catties, and a catty of 15 cents is also three taels of silver.
Only those who have a little money usually do not raise New Year's pigs, and spend money to buy them directly at the end of the year.
Qin Rongye asked the price, they bought so many things, they only had three taels of silver left in their hands, and they had to buy piglets to raise, and they bought New Year's pigs all at once, and they were short of money again.
"Well, I'll take a look first, and I'll buy it next day."
Next day, it is not a problem to sell a little more fish and buy a New Year pig to kill.
"Okay, let's go, the pigs I raise are much better than those raised in your village, and ordinary people can't afford to buy them." The butcher said, "Little girl, the New Year is over, even if you don't buy it, you can give me publicity." ”
He didn't have any hope at all, this mother and daughter could take out the silver to buy New Year's pigs, at most they would be addicted, and he would not lose a piece of meat.
Qin Rong didn't argue with him, if he could afford it, he couldn't afford it, so he wouldn't know it next day?
"Uncle, your surname."
"Don't give your surname Yang."
Butcher Yang pulled the stall utensils with a cart and walked towards home, Qin Rong's mother and daughter followed, and the things they bought were all placed on the ox cart, and Linghua helped watch it.
Turning into an alley, the unique smell of a family's pig raising wafted out, but it was not unpleasant, mixed with the fragrance of food, Yang Butcher pushed open the door, a spacious blue brick yard appeared in front of him, a fat woman wearing muslin greeted her, got off the things on the ox cart, saw the mother and daughter who followed up, and asked, "Visitor?" ”
looked at Wan Shi unfriendly, this little woman was so beautiful, hum, what are you doing with her man?
"Those who come to see the New Year's pig will leave in a while." How could butcher Yang not know his mother-in-law's thoughts, he was an honest and responsible person, and his eyes never wandered on a woman's body.
"A New Year's pig is precious, and if you don't buy it after seeing it, it's a waste of time." Butcher Yang's mother-in-law saw that the mother and daughter were not dressed well, and almost said that they couldn't afford it.
Qin Rong didn't argue with her, she still had to do business with Butcher Yang, and it was not good to get into a fight.
Butcher Yang led Qin Rong's mother and daughter to the row of pigsty in the backyard, "More than a dozen young pigs, ranging from 200 catties to 400 catties, each with smooth fur and tight meat. ”
After seeing Butcher Yang's house, Qin Rong knew that there was no need to go to another house to see it, these pigs raised by Butcher Yang were of the highest quality in modern times.
"How much is a pound?" Qin Rong asked.
"Fifteen cents, girl, a pig can get at least three taels of silver." Yang Butcher didn't believe that this mother and daughter could afford it.
"Your pig is good, keep that one for me, and I'll pull it back next day." Qin Rong pointed to a head of about three hundred catties.
This is enough for their mother and daughter to eat from the beginning of the year to the end of the year.
Butcher Yang was stunned for a moment, this girl was referring to this one, which was the best in this pile of pigs, and he was about to keep it for himself to kill and eat.
"Girl, with such a big tone, it's another thing to be able to afford it."
"If you can afford it, it's not Uncle Yang that you have the final say, it's me who has the final say." Qin Rong said with a smile.
