034 Business opened
The pig was not easy to clean up, and the next day Aunt Caifeng took the pig into the water before dawn.
The time of marinating is not long enough, and the pig has to be sold again tomorrow.
Taking out the pig's head meat, Qu Xiaoqi made some porridge, and several people gathered around to fill their stomachs and entered the city.
Before entering the city, Qu Xiaoqi sent Ah Qing to the uncle, but he didn't expect Butcher Zhang to take a piece of meat and send it directly to the kitchen of the uncle's house.
"This piece of meat was given by my uncle, and when I divide the copper coins later, I will give you a little more."
Qu Xiaoqi almost laughed out loud, and said: "According to the original score, we will share the profit, and then we will send some to the official master." ”
Butcher Zhang scratched his head and did not speak again.
Zeng Miaoya yawned and followed them.
She had asked to come over and help, but she had never gotten up so early.
When she entered the city, it was already dawn, and Qu Xiaoqi went to buy a pot with a simple stand, plus a table, which cost her one hundred and fifty yuan.
Butcher Zhang followed her, and Aunt Caifeng and Zeng Miaoya were setting up a pork stall at the moment.
After that, Qu Xiaoqi bought some potatoes and leeks, because he bought a lot, and promised to buy them the next day, so he had a lot of discounts.
Butcher Zhang sighed at Qu Xiaoqi's ability to bargain, and was stunned by the mother who sold potatoes.
After that, I went to the rice store and bought a lot of noodles, because it was Qu Xiaoqi, and the shopkeeper of the rice store gave the lowest price.
It is very troublesome to shred potatoes, Qu Xiaoqi's knife work is not very good, and this is all done by Aunt Caifeng.
Watching Qu Xiaoqi stir-fry the dishes, and there were a lot of condiments in it, she wondered if the price set by Qu Xiaoqi was too cheap?
"You help me shout, the meat burrito costs five cents a piece, the vegetable burrito costs three cents a piece, the five cents two, and the white flour burritos are cheap and affordable." After everything was ready, Qu Xiaoqi said to Zeng Miaoya, and this was the purpose of her letting Zeng Miaoya agree to come over.
After all, Zeng Miaoya is a ten-year-old girl, and she can't do other jobs.
Zeng Miaoya is young, and her courage is not small. After Qu Xiaoqi finished instructing here, she shouted out from her side.
It didn't take long for a group of people to gather here.
With the temperament of people who love to join in the fun, the more people gather, the more people gather.
At this moment, a fresh dish appeared at the breakfast of the local official and old man's house, and it is said that the housekeeper had already done experiments with dogs before serving it.
The housekeeper was also given some silver by Qu Xiaoqi, otherwise this dish would have been eaten by the people before it was served.
"Where did you get this dish?"
"A little lady from Linxi Village and Butcher Zhang sent it over, saying that they made fresh food and came to give it to the master to taste." The housekeeper replied respectfully, knowing that he had won the heart of the old man in front of him this time.
There is no oil and water in this place, and now the officials everywhere are strictly investigated, if you send silver, the person in front of you will definitely not dare to accept it.
"They're smart, go and see where they sell them, and then buy some and come back...... Ahem, the lady loves to eat, and the children love to eat. ”
The housekeeper knew that this was what the lady and children loved to eat, and it was obviously those two pieces of meat that hooked out the gluttonous worm in front of him.
I'm afraid I'm embarrassed to grab it with the children on the table, and I didn't eat much, so I thought about it now.
After receiving the order, the housekeeper was not worried about letting his subordinates run errands, so he went to the street to find Zhang Butcher's stall.
When I arrived, I happened to catch Zeng Miaoya shouting at the top of her voice, and there was a circle of people around.
The housekeeper was afraid that he would delay the matter and squeeze the crowd away, so he realized that the people around him were watching and had not yet bought.
Qu Xiaoqi's eyes were sharp, and he saw the housekeeper at a glance, and hurriedly stepped forward to greet him.
"What do you have to do when you're old?"
Hearing Qu Xiaoqi call himself a grass citizen, the butler's bark-like face twitched twice, and said: "This little lady, I don't have this rule as a housekeeper, and I will weigh five catties of meat again." ”
"This is pork belly, this is the whole piece, originally I planned to sell it for forty copper dollars a catty. Look at this piece is only two catties, the same as pig's head meat, count you thirty copper coins a catty, five catties for a total of one hundred and twenty Wen, I'll wrap you a burrito to taste, do you think it's okay? "In this open business, Qu Xiaoqi is lobbying here, and neither Butcher Zhang nor Aunt Caifeng have spoken.
Like housekeepers, who do things for the public, they all have a certain status, and they can't afford to offend these small people.
There were many people around who knew the housekeeper, and the discussion was much lower, but it didn't disperse because of this.
"Okay, okay." The butler stroked his beard with a smile, he could eat this gift privately, and a burrito was not worth a few copper coins.
Qu Xiaoqi wrapped an arm-thick cake with minced meat and put it on top of the loaded meat.
"You can be called when you go back, but you can come to me if you don't have enough." After counting the copper coins, Qu Xiaoqi said half-jokingly.
"Okay, okay."
After buying the meat, the housekeeper breathed a sigh of relief and squeezed through the crowd and left.
If you can invite the official master's housekeeper over, even if it is a trust, this amount is enough.
For a while, the bustling voices of the crowd began to sound again, and the most common of them was, "The fat meat is only fifteen yuan a catty, how can this pig's head be so expensive?" ”
"That is, thirty pounds a catty, you can buy two catties of good meat."
After the housekeeper left, Aunt Caifeng also relaxed a lot, cut a piece of meat into small pieces, and said, "Is it worth it for you to taste, if it's not delicious, just don't buy it." If you still feel expensive after tasting it, and you don't have so many copper coins, you can also buy a burrito to satisfy your cravings. ”
In fact, one minced meat burrito is not enough for three taels, in ancient times, one pound was sixteen taels, Qu Xiaoqi deliberately grasped how much meat was carefully grasped, and it was impossible to compensate.
"Come, let me taste your swarthy flesh, what's so delicious." The one who spoke was a martial artist, who usually did some dart business, and had some money in his hand.
He is good at this wine and meat, and when he sees freshness, he naturally wants to taste it.
Aunt Caifeng clamped a piece for him, and Wufu said: "Another piece, the cut is so small, it's not enough to dry your teeth." ”
After eating two pieces in a row, Takeo nodded, the more he chewed, the more fragrant it became!
"It's really better than what the restaurant makes! Cut me two pounds, and I'll get some wine to eat. ”
"A piece can be more than two catties, so count you according to two catties." Butcher Zhang took the scale and deliberately shook it in front of Wufu's eyes.
"I don't know if you're selling something, okay, I'll come and buy it next time, and I'll get it for sixty yuan."
With this precedent, the business here is completely open.
Qu Xiaoqi was busy pancakes and burritos over there, and Zeng Miaoya wrapped them up and collected the money, and they really sold a lot in one morning.
The people next to him saw that the business was so good here, and they also shouted in a good way, and they really sold more than usual.
Butcher Li's nose on the other side of the door was crooked, and every time Butcher Zhang glanced at him, the corners of his mouth would rise a point.
Aunt Caifeng secretly scolded him several times, and the response she got was: Yes, who told him to put the stall opposite us.
This sentence won several glances from Aunt Caifeng.
The vegetarian burrito has the addition of soy sauce, and those who have bought it before will even buy two more to eat in Nahui Village.
Generally, people in the village will buy two vegetarian meats and take them back as improved food, but they are reluctant to take them to lo-mei.
"After that, when the farming is profitable, our business can be better." This good start made several people a little surprised, mainly because the official master's housekeeper came over, but after half a day, a pig's head was sold.
Qu Xiaoqi closed the stalls here, and saw Xu Zixin coming over.
After a few days, he lost a lot of weight and looked even weaker.
What kind of inhuman torture has this brother gone through in the past few days to become like this?
Qu Xiaoqi nodded at him and said hello.
Xu Zixin smiled helplessly and said, "There is something I want to discuss with you." ”
"You say."
Xu Zixin was dumbfounded, looked around, and said, "Why don't you go to the restaurant with me to talk in detail?" ”
"Uncle Zhang, you can go with me, let my aunt watch it for a while."
"Hey, okay." Butcher Zhang didn't know Xu Zixin, and looking at the person who looked like a dog, he really didn't worry about Qu Xiaoqi going alone with him.
If something happens, it's not good for him to explain it to Brother Ah Qing.
Xu Zixin didn't speak, which was a tacit acquiescence.
If it weren't for the fact that he didn't walk vainly, Qu Xiaoqi would have suspected that he had gained a windfall and was overindulgent.
The only restaurant in the city is only two floors, and it is estimated to be the tallest building in Fengshui City.
The meat that had been wrapped in advance for the old doctor was now lying in Qu Xiaoqi's arms, thinking about sending it to the old doctor later.
"Young master, he has a restaurant in Beijing, but he is not good at management, and now it is a little bleak. I want to buy the recipe for braised pork, you can look at the price. ”
"Sell me the restaurant, and I'll help you run it, and I'm guaranteed to make a big slam." Qu Xiaoqi grinned.
"I want to, too." Xu Zixin suddenly relaxed his body, and leaned on the chair, he was really a sick beauty.
"Lo mei can be left for three days, and it can be left for longer when the weather turns cooler. Therefore, twenty-five wen a catty, no bargain. ”
Hearing this, Xu Zixin frowned, as if he was not satisfied with this result.
"Miss Qu, you ......"
"Just call me a little lady, I can guarantee that my recipe is unique in this world. It's impossible to tell the recipe of my dish by eating it, unless someone sees all the cooking process, and I'll take precautions. Qu Xiaoqi seems to be careless, and she really doesn't care if this list can be made or not.
If the sales in the capital are good, the pigs in Zhang's butcher's house are not enough, and if they cooperate with butchers in other regions, I am afraid that the cost will be much higher.
Xu Zixin lowered his head, took the tea on the table and took a sip, then gritted his teeth and said, "Give me half a pig first, let me see how the effect is, if it sells well......"
"Half a day, hunger marketing, this idea is for you for free."
