Chapter 249: The seafood pot is on fire
A sour taste sandwiched with the tender feeling of shrimp meat burst open in her mouth, making Lin Fengxuan's eyes light up.
This is the first time she has eaten this way, and it is the first time she has tasted such a novel and unique taste.
"This one is also delicious with sour sauce, so delicious." Lin Fengxuan completely forgot about the difficulties she had just made to Huamanxi, and tried her best to invite her friends next door to taste the taste of bamboo shrimp dipped in sour sauce.
However, my friend said, "You try this octopus dipped in tahini, well, it's so fragrant!" It's so fragrant! β
This time, the ladies at this table have unlocked new skills, even if it is the same thing, dipped in different sauces, they are all different textures and tastes.
After a while, most of the table full of seafood was swept away.
"Uh, it's so supportive, it's so supportive, oh my God, I've eaten so much! So much! A noble girl held her stomach and screamed in surprise as she looked at the various shells piled up in front of her.
"What's it called, these seafood are eaten less, they look at more, they are all shells, besides, the chef has already said just now, this pot is eaten for beauty and beauty, and it will not gain weight." Another interface channel.
"That's right, I just cared about eating seafood, and I haven't tasted the greens yet, these lotus root slices, bamboo shoot slices, pea tips, how can we say that we also have to taste them, right?" Another noble lady said.
"Yes, yes, let's get some vegetables first." Lin Fengxuan replied while pouring some vegetables into it.
After a while, the vegetables changed color, and everyone stretched out their chopsticks to clip some, and they were shocked to a new height.
"Oh my God, I've never eaten lotus roots, I didn't know they could be so delicious! Dip in sour sauce, sour, so delicious, so delicious! β
"Don't, dip it in hot sauce, hot sauce is more delicious, it's so delicious."
"Doesn't the spicy one get hot? Aren't you afraid of acne? β
"What are you afraid of, isn't this lotus root a fire-lowering thing? It just happened to be neutralized. β
"Makes sense, then eat."
"The bamboo shoots and pea tips are even more delicious, so deliciousβ"
After a meal of vegetables, one of the noblewomen said, "I think I can still eat some meat." β
"I also think that this dish will taste better and better the more I eat, and I can still eat some meat-"
Lin Fengxuan: "......." friends who are full after moving their chopsticks twice on weekdays! A pot is completely exposed? Well, she can have a little more meat, too.
In the end, the whole table was wiped out, and even a few more seafood were called, and by the time everyone put down their chopsticks, there was not even any soup left on the table! The ladies at the table all supported their waists and said to Lin Fengxuan: "Fengxuan, today's meal is the best I have eaten in the past ten years." β
"And the most!" Someone else added.
Everyone thanked Lin Fengxuan one after another, and invited her to their home for dinner, which can be described as a joy for the guests and hosts, Lin Fengxuan was very satisfied, showing a slight smile.
However, when Xiao Er took the bill, the smile on her face suddenly froze.
"Miss Lin, a total of 1,560 taels of silver, you are our old customer here, wipe a small amount, and collect 1,500." Xiao Er said politely.
"Fifteen hundred?" Lin Fengxuan was so frightened that she stood up from the stool and pulled the bill, "Are you mistaken, you eat here for two or three hundred taels on weekdays, and this meal actually costs more than a thousand?" β
Xiao Er's face was still respectful and polite, and explained: "Miss Lin, there is nothing wrong, just the matsutake mushroom in the bottom of your pot, you used two good ones, this matsutake mushroom is a good thing that is expensive, it can nourish after eating, one flower costs three hundred taels of silver, not to mention that the food is seafood, crabs, prawns, they are all good things." This meal is not expensive. β
It's not expensive yet! This meal will be topped with her moon silver for several months. Wei Guogong's errand is a fat poor, there is no shortage of silver in the house on weekdays, and Mrs. Lin loves her, so on weekdays, her monthly silver is already more than other ladies, and there are three or four hundred taels of silver in a month.
If you invite a friend to dinner, or give a gift, you can also pay money from the account room, but if you go home and say that she ate more than 1,000 taels of silver for one meal, then she can't be scolded by her father?
How could she have thought that this pot was delicious but delicious, but it was so expensive? No, no, they have to come back!
"Big sister, didn't you bring enough silver? If I don't have enough money, I'll go back and let the account office deliver it? Lin Fengruo saw that her sister's face was blue and white for a while, and she was very embarrassed, so she asked.
It's really a pot that can't be opened, Lin Fengxuan glared at Lin Fengruo fiercely, if she didn't bring enough money to come to Yipinju for dinner, and she also alarmed the account room at home, and it wouldn't make people laugh out of their big teeth when it was passed out!
She ate so happily and ate so much just now, and when it was time to check out, she wanted to run first, how could there be such a good thing?
"Second sister, I went out in a hurry this time, I really didn't bring enough money, the money bags are on the maid on weekdays, and there are only 1,000 taels of silver on the body for self-defense, you can help me put on the rest first, and I will return it to you when I return home, otherwise I can only let you wait here for a while, I will go back to the house to get the money myself."
When Lin Fengruo heard this, her face immediately fell, and she said that she was going back to the house to get the silver, who knows when she will come back to settle the bill, and whether she will come back? If she comes out now, she only needs to put six hundred taels on the front, and if she doesn't agree, maybe she will have to come out by herself for one thousand six hundred taels!
She is a concubine, the monthly silver is less than Lin Fengxuan, only two hundred taels a month, this time she advanced out six hundred taels of silver, it was also three months ago for her, heartache and pain were inevitable, even if she knew that it was impossible to get it back with Lin Fengxuan's person, she still couldn't help but say: "Yes, but when I return to the house, the eldest sister has to pay it back to me, and I plan to save this money to add makeup to you when the eldest sister gets married." β
It's okay if she doesn't mention adding makeup, if Lin Fengxuan is in a good mood, she may be able to return one or two hundred taels to her, but she wants to step on Lin Fengxuan's sore spot, she pulled out a trace of ugly smile, gritted her teeth and said: "Since it is for me to add makeup, then when I spend it in advance, add makeup, there is no need!" β
Anyway, she would never marry that cripple!
Lin Fengxuan dragged the silver money that Lin Fengruo took out, and then took out a thousand taels of silver from his purse, handed it to Xiao Er, and settled the bill.
Lin Fengruo glanced at it secretly, there was clearly silver in her purse, where did she not bring enough silver, it was clear that she was reluctant to eat so much money in one meal, and asked her to also give some blood!
What's the matter with her? She thanked others for organizing her birthday banquet, does it have anything to do with her? She didn't call herself at the banquet last night!
The more Lin Fengruo thought about it, the more angry he became, he clenched the handkerchief in his hand tightly, and he had already calculated how to sue when he went home.
Here, the Lin sisters thought about the money for a meal, and they went back to the house to make a fuss, but this seafood pot was indeed delicious, and the ladies who had eaten at that table all returned home and touted it.
Not long after, the news of the new seafood pot in this Pinju spread all over Kyoto, and there was an endless stream of people who came to eat the pot, all of whom wanted to order the seafood pot, even if there was a lot of stock in the ice cellar of Yipinju, it was in short supply.
Hua Manxi has also called out the bottom of the red oil pot, the bottom of the clear soup pot, the bottom of the mushroom pot and other three kinds of pot bottoms for everyone to choose, in fact, Kyoto people are also spicy, those ladies are just afraid of the fire, the bottom of the red oil pot is out, it is even more terrible, people who come to eat the pot, have to book to get the table number.
In just a few days, Yipinju's business is booming, and the account has doubled, which is all the credit of Hua Manxi, and Yipinju is not unreasonable, directly gave her 10,000 taels of silver, bought the formula at the bottom of the pot, and gave her an annual dividend of 10,000 taels, and also pulled her up directly, and became a master, first-class!
The cooks who came in with Hua Manxi didn't even have a chance to go to the stove, and Hua Manxi had already jumped a few levels in a row and directly became a first-class master.
It can be seen that this world is really sharp, no matter how strict the rules are, as long as it is profitable, there is nothing that cannot be made an exception.
"Chef Hua, another table of red oil pot bottoms, ask for seafood, one for each one."
"Chef Hua, the bottom of the mushroom pot still needs seafood, with a small amount of vegetables."
"Chef Hua, the seafood in the ice cellar is sold out, there are no more, what should I do, there are so many orders in front of me!"
Hua Manxi is not in the kitchen from No. 1 to No. 10 now, Yipinju has opened a new kitchen for her to make hot pot, specially named the special kitchen.
Hua Manxi has been really busy these days, not only to be busy making the bottom of the pot, but also to bring people, because she can't do it alone, so it is also urgent to teach the techniques of adjusting the dipping sauce and the bottom of the pot to the master below.
"Help me call the chief manager over, and I'll see what to do." Hua Manxi poked his head out of the bottom of a choking pot and said in a low voice.
If you want to say that the most popular pot base, it is naturally red oil, the kind of numb, spicy, and irresistible taste that every foodie can't resist.
As soon as the chief manager heard that it was the flower chef of the best kitchen, he hurriedly came over, and in the past few days, a lot of silver has risen on the account of Yipinju, and these silvers, they also have a share of profits as the general manager, which is all the credit of Hua Manxi, and it is natural to be polite to those who can bring benefits to themselves.
"Chef Hua, is there something wrong with me?" The chief manager came in and asked politely.
"That's the case, there are more and more orders for eating pots in front, and there is no seafood in the ice cellar here, do you think there is a way?" Hua Manxi took out a handkerchief and wiped his sweat, and asked in a low voice.
"No seafood? With so much seafood, isn't there still more than a thousand catties this morning? The chief manager was stunned, this was his dereliction of duty, but he didn't expect this seafood to be so good! It's already good to sell more than 100 catties a day at most on weekdays! Who would have thought that this pot would actually remove more than 1,000 catties of seafood in half a day!
