Chapter 11: The first pot of gold in life
Seeing that the people on the street gradually became sparse from crowded, the middle-aged uncle just now was nowhere to be seen.
Gu Qiurong complained with disappointment in her heart: "What~ I thought how bright my aura was as a traverser, but it turned out that I was still tricked." Anyway, is my aura out of power? Why is it so difficult to even sell a dried bamboo shoot~"
Gu Qiurong was still unwilling to wait for a while, but she still didn't see her uncle.
At this time, the street was already filled with the smell of food wafting from the restaurant. Gu Qiurong could only get up very depressed and prepare to pack up her things and go home.
"Yes, you hurry up and clean up the stall, you can go to the dart board with me to make lunch in a while, the cook in our dart game just told me that her child is sick today, and she will go home and take care of it."
Listening to the familiar voice, the stone hanging in Gu Qiurong's heart could be said to have fallen.
Gu Qiurong simply cleaned up the stall and followed with the bamboo shoots on her back.
Although she was also worried about whether something would happen, Gu's mother had already taken out all her savings to support herself, so how could she be embarrassed to go home empty-handed.
Besides, all the way I have walked is the street, even if there is one, I am not afraid of anything.
After walking for about a stick of incense, Gu Qiurong finally saw a huge mansion, and the plaque on the gate also had the four big characters "Shunfeng Dart Bureau" written on it.
Gu Qiurong was finally completely relieved, it seems that this middle-aged uncle really didn't lie to himself.
After entering, Gu Qiurong followed the maid who had beaten her hand and finally arrived at the kitchen.
"Girl, I was called by the owner to give you a hand, if you need anything from me, just speak."
Gu Qiurong looked at the ingredients in front of her, including pork, eggplant, cabbage, shrimp, chicken breast, sausage and other ingredients.
Moreover, the most important thing is that the salt at this uncle's household is still the fine salt he dreamed of.
Gu Qiurong secretly breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately, Gu Qiurong had learned how to make these dishes in the system space before to reach the most delicious realm.
Gu Qiurong said to the maid very easily: "You just help me wash the vegetables." ”
Gu Qiurong just sat down and took a breath. The maid washed all the ingredients that Gu Qiurong had taken out.
I saw that Gu Qiurong was very skillful in chopping the three ingredients of shiitake mushrooms, pork, and ginger together, and then adding various seasonings and putting them aside to taste.
Then remove the skin of the eggplant first, then cut the flesh into four large pieces, and then dig out the meat in the middle of each piece with a small spoon and chop it together, and then put it into the meat filling prepared before.
Finally, put the stuffing into the eggplant box, first put the eggplant box with the filling into the steamer, then wrap it in egg white and flour, and then put it in a hot oil pan and fry it until golden brown and remove it.
In this way, a serving of shiitake mushroom and eggplant is ready.
After a series of smooth operations, the dart masters unloading at the back door could smell a fragrant smell of vegetables.
Finally, Gu Qiurong cut the small sausage into thin slices with an oblique knife and put it in the rice to steam.
Afterwards, the red tomatoes are peeled, cut into grains, stir-fried in a hot oil pan with the cooked corn and green beans, and finally added to the rice and steamed.
When Gu Qiurong was served, a dart master quipped: "What delicious food did my sister-in-law Qian make for us today?" It turned out to be a different girl. ”
Another dart master also immediately took over and said: "That's right, I just smelled the smell of food wafting from the kitchen when I was still unloading outside, but it made my saliva so hungry." ”
At this time, the middle-aged uncle came out of the back room and said with a smile: "Okay, okay, you don't have to make fun of other girls anymore." ”
Gu Qiurong deliberately brought the plate of chicken and golden bamboo shoots to the uncle.
"It smells so good! Presumably there is nothing to say about the taste. After saying that, the uncle picked up a little bit and put it in his mouth.
At this time, I saw the uncle say with an aftertaste on his face: "Wonderful! Wonderful! This entrance has a tender feeling of chicken mincing, and gradually the sweet taste of honey also comes out, and finally the taste of this dried bamboo shoot can be said to be an endless aftertaste in the mouth~ Wonderful~ It's really wonderful~ Your taste seems to be better than the taste I ate in the Yellow Crane Tower. ”
Gu Qiurong saw that everyone was eating the food they made with relish, and she was very satisfied in her heart.
No matter how tiring and troublesome it is, after seeing others enjoying their own results, it seems that all the hardships are worth it.
The uncle praised Gu Qiurong without hesitation: "Tell me where you learned this craft at a young age!" ”
"What about my bamboo shoots......."
"All according to twenty wen a pound, I want them all. And ah~ There are still a few days left for the birthday party I said before, so you should prepare well in the next few days. Whatever ingredients you need, just ask, and I'll prepare them for you. At the birthday party, you come over to be the head chef, and the price of each table will be counted as three taels of silver for you. You. ”
Hearing this, Gu Qiurong was very moved and thanked her again and again, and almost knelt down and kowtowed to her uncle.
"Thank you uncle for your trust, I will definitely hold this birthday banquet well, and I will definitely live up to your trust."
The uncle helped Gu Qiurong up, "That's it, you girl is also very pleasing, if you don't dislike it, call me Uncle Gen." ”
"Thank you for not disliking the number of roots."
Just when Gu Qiurong and the two were polite to each other, a dart master sitting next to him asked casually: "Little girl, your taste is really rare, your restaurant is open on that street, and I can take my family to eat when I am free." ”
The other dart masters also began to say casually: "That's it, you can talk about it, next time our brother will go to your store to take care of business." ”
Hearing this, Gu Qiurong said with a little embarrassment: "I~ didn't open a restaurant, I just sold dried bamboo shoots in the market." ”
A dart master said with a little regret: "Yo~ You don't open a restaurant with such good craftsmanship as you, that's a pity." ”
............
Gu Qiurong took the silver given by the roots, and she was very happy in her heart.
For Gu Qiurong, this is not just a simple birthday banquet, but Uncle Gen's recognition of his trust.
The most important thing is that he earned the first pot of gold in his life, and finally lived up to Gu's mother's trust and support.
After Gu Qiurong returned home, she immediately told Gu's mother that she was going to Uncle Gen's house for a banquet.
After hearing this, Gu's mother also said happily: "Great, Uncle Gen can be regarded as a highly respected figure in our town." ”
Gu Qiurong counted today's income, and the bamboo shoots earned a total of 800 yuan, plus the salary for the ten tables of banquets given by Uncle Gen was thirty taels of silver.
In addition to the ten taels of silver that Gu's mother invested in her, she also made a lot of net money.
Gu Qiurong said happily in her heart: "If this continues, won't I be far from the day when I will become a big landlord?" ”
...........
In the past few days, Gu Qiurong will find a quiet place whenever she is free, and then enter the system to learn cooking.
In the blink of an eye, tomorrow is the day of the banquet, and Gu Qiurong's place is still far away from the town, so I went to Uncle Gen's house tonight.
Saying that it is a stay, in fact, it is also staying up all night to prepare for tomorrow's ingredients, such as some foods that need to be passed through the oil pot, tonight will be passed first, so that tomorrow you can save more time to put the food in shape.
