Chapter 10: Salt and Pepper Mushrooms

As soon as Boss Zhang heard that this thing was poisonous, he immediately stood up in fright and said to Wei Rui: "You person, I have no grievances with you, how can you sell poisonous vegetables to me, who instructed you?" ”

Wei Rui didn't expect these people to react so much, and hurriedly said: "No, boss, this thing is not poisonous, I ate this last night, there is nothing at all, if you don't believe it, you can make a little taste first." ”

"How can there be no poison? A few years ago, the hunter who went up the mountain ate this greedily, and he turned out to be crazy and stupid, saying that someone was dancing, and almost everyone went. At that time, there was a lot of rumors in the county, didn't you deliberately harm our hotel? ”

Wei Rui continued: "That kind and this are not the same kind, that color is pink and poisonous, and this color is whiter and not poisonous. Master, you must not believe me when I say that it is different, why don't I try it and see you make a decision? ”

"Nonsense, poisonous things, I must not do it!"

He stood firm, but Wei Rui looked at Boss Zhang on the side. She said slowly: "As far as I know, since you changed the chef in this restaurant, there have been a lot fewer repeat customers, if it weren't for the name of the county order here, some rich people will sell face to support you, I'm afraid that such a big field, you won't be able to last long." ”

"Nonsense!" The cook had a fierce face, as if he was going to beat someone, but the boss looked at Wei Rui meaningfully and said, "I didn't expect you to inquire about these things so clearly, so, what do you want to say?" ”

"If it's because of the chef's problem, in other words, the dish isn't up to par, why don't you create a new one? If our county magistrate happens to like this new dish, and my brother's restaurant is vying to learn it, can you have a large amount of teaching fees? And can you recycle word-of-mouth and let lost customers return? ”

"Just one dish?" Boss Zhang asked.

Wei Rui said: "Of course, what I just said is only one of the points, if you are not willing to sell the formula to other families, then you are the only one in the entire county, and things are scarce and expensive, where will they go if they don't come to you?" ”

"There is a county order to endorse you, and this dish is not popular."

Boss Zhang seemed interested: "How can you be sure that the county magistrate will definitely like this dish?" ”

Wei Rui smiled: "I can guarantee it, do you want to gamble?" ”

The woman seemed to be a ruthless and decisive person, and sure enough, she spoke: "I, Zhang Yunniang, have nothing in my life that I dare not gamble, come, just follow what you say." However, you have to try poison first. ”

"It's easy to say, it's easy to say." Wei Rui replied, and said: "However, I have found a business opportunity for you, boss, if it happens, how can you pay me, boss?" ”

Boss Zhang smiled: "If it is done, the reward will naturally be easy to say." ”

"Then you can't just send me away with a word, you have to make it clear, if you give me unreasonable, I don't want to, there is more than one restaurant in this county, there is always one that can afford the remuneration I want, right?"

In fact, Wei Rui said this very bottomlessly, because the largest restaurant in the county is this restaurant, if you really refuse to ask for it, the possibility of other restaurants will only be lower. However, this boss Zhang always seems to like to try novelty.

"That's the number!" She stretched out a finger and slapped the table, "If it can really be done, I'll give you ten taels of silver!" ”

Wei Rui simply calculated, ten taels is probably more than 10,000 yuan, although for Zhang Yue's identity, it is also a matter of clothes, but for Wei Rui, it is a lot.

However, she still waved her hand and said, "That's not good, it's too little, at least double it before I'm willing to give you the secret recipe or something." ”

"You don't have to get an inch, our boss is kind-hearted, ten taels is already a lot of money, you don't have enough people to swallow elephants, be careful to choke to death!" The cooking master was obviously very dissatisfied with Wei Rui and mocked.

"I won't do it if it's less than twenty taels, Boss Zhang, I hope you can think about it carefully, if it really happens, how can you earn more than twenty taels?" She hugged her arms, with a look on her face that if you love to give me or not, she would have a home at any time, but in fact, she was panicked in her heart.

But the momentum can't be lost, otherwise if she knows that she has a weak heart, how can she do business?

Sure enough, Boss Zhang hesitated for a long time. The decision was made: "Success, at this price." However, I can say that the ugly thing is ahead, if this thing is poisonous, you have to bear it. If there was a problem with the county magistrate, he didn't like it, and the business was never discussed. ”

"Okay." Wei Rui looked determined to win, "But don't worry, if the county leader Wei doesn't like it, I'll cut off my head." If someone dies, I will pay for it. ”

"That's it, now, let's test the poison first, and if it's safe, then try the dishes." Boss Zhang made a decision.

When she arrived in the back kitchen and saw those rich condiments, Wei Rui was really happy and happy. And in the end, it is a restaurant, no longer a single lard or butter, there is also freshly squeezed vegetable oil, everything is sufficient.

However, this kind of sufficiency is also for this era, and there are no things like monosodium glutamate and chicken essence.

Wei Rui stood in front of the pot table, feeling an inexplicable trance, and then she ordered: "Tear these mushrooms into strips and clean them first, and then cook them in the pot." ”

The chef didn't like her very much, but the chef was naturally curious about new dishes, and he wanted to see what kind of things this man could make, so he did what she said.

Immediately afterwards, Wei Rui took out the pepper beans, took out the stems and seeds, and then put them in the pot to dry fry, and after a minute, the peppercorns were fried to take them out, and then put salt in them to fry.

The practice of frying salt made the master very angry, salt was very expensive, and he had never seen anyone do it.

But he didn't have time to get angry, and the oyster mushrooms were already cooked. Wei Rui asked her to take it out and go through the water again, and then drained it, and although he didn't want to do it, he did it anyway.

Grind the fried peppercorn beans into powder and mix them with the fried salt, and the pepper and salt are ready.

Wei Rui winked at Boss Zhang, who had been watching from the side, and then began to pour oil, knowing that oil was very expensive, she didn't pour too much, after all, it was just an experiment, and it should not be wasted.

After the master removed the water of the oyster mushroom, Wei Rui beat an egg into it and added a little flour, at this time the flour was still wheat-colored, not so white, and the tendons were not as good as modern ones.

But it's better than nothing, she mixed these together, and when she was about to fry them, a small guy suddenly ran in at the door, and he said to Boss Zhang: "Boss, Lord Wei is here, and he is waiting for you among the water and clouds!" ”

Wei Rui was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "Boss Zhang really has face, this Lord Wei will come as soon as you are invited." ”
