Chapter 210: Bestsellers

"Huh? Xiaocao, Xiaolian, Jingle Bell brought so many guys over, what is this going to do? The sixth brother was dressed in a short dress, kept sweating with his sleeves, and when he saw the movements of the sisters, he came over leisurely.

After Xiaocao's suggestion, his dock office has begun to take shape, managing nearly a hundred dock workers, and almost all the affairs on the dock are monopolized by him. Foreman Sun also became his right-hand man, and the first few brothers who followed him in the past were also promoted to foremen. Now the sixth brother only needs to take charge of the overall situation, and he doesn't have to arrange trivial matters himself, so the most idle thing on the dock should belong to him!

Xiaocao has already made a batch of sea jelly at home, and everything is ready for seasoning. Seeing the sixth brother coming, he used him as a test item, used a few coarse porcelain bowls, mixed a bowl full of sour and spicy cold powder, and handed it over with a smile.

The sixth brother took it casually, looked down at the crystal clear in the bowl, and the light and refreshing color of the cold powder was lined with emerald green cucumbers and red chili oil, which made people look particularly appetizing.

Swallowing his saliva silently, the sixth brother scooped up a piece of cold powder with a spoon and couldn't wait to send it to his mouth, the sour and spicy taste and refreshing taste stimulated his taste buds. Recently, he had a bitter summer, but under the stimulation of this spoonful of small jelly, his appetite was great.

After eating a big bowl of cold noodles in one go, the sixth brother still felt unsatisfied, he let out a long breath and said with a smile: "Xiaocao, are you going to sell this on the dock?" Yes, very appetizing, just right for summer! If you can use the cool water of the well to ice it, it will be more refreshing to eat! ”

This summer's heat is particularly violent, and it is only in the early summer, when the scorching sun erupts like a volcano, and the scorching light is unreservedly sprinkled on the golden sand, and even the sea breeze is scorching hot.

In this way, it is hard for the dock workers. Under the scorching sun, sweat is sprinkled like raindrops, and the phenomenon of fainting due to the slightly weaker body is not non-existent. In such a hot weather, people's appetite has also been affected. The hot noodle soup is rarely patronized, and the steamed dishes can't arouse people's appetite.

The dock workers under the sixth brother have the phenomenon of asking for leave every day, which has a great impact on the work of the firm. Now there are foods that can arouse people's appetite and relieve the heat, and they are definitely very popular!

Well cool water? Because of the soil quality problem on the wharf, not a single well can be drilled, and the water is pulled back from the well in the distance. However, this is not difficult for Yu Xiaocao. Yu Xiaocao's eyes rolled and she thought about itβ€”she decided to take a trip to the oyster sauce factory not far from the dock and borrow some saltpeter. There's no cool water from the well on the docks, but she has a way of making ice cubes! Ice cubes and chilled cold powder must have a much better effect than well cold water!

In fact, the sixth brother was very aware of the situation of the wharf, so he said it casually, but he didn't expect it to inspire Xiaocao, so that the workers on the wharf quickly ate the cold powder after being chilled.

On the wharf, not far away, workers sweat like rain, carrying the goods on the ship. Xiaocao's family was also busy in order to be able to set up the cold noodles before lunch.

Xiaolian took her private money and drove the donkey cart to the market to buy supplies such as bowls, spoons, chopsticks, etc. Yu Hai was nervously building a grass hut. At present, only a pergola that can be shaded is needed, so it is much easier to build, as long as the bamboo poles in the dead corners are fixed and the roof is made, it can almost be used. After a round of the harbor, the town came back to help build the shed.

And Yu Xiaocao requisitioned his godfather's beloved horse and rode in the direction of the seasoning workshop. Wednesday Shao recently went to the capital, busy with the opening of the second branch of Zhenyulou and the spice shop. In charge of the workshop is the steward of Zhou Da.

Steward Zhou knew the relationship between Xiaocao and his young master, and when he heard her say that he wanted to borrow some saltpeter, he naturally didn't say a word, and took enough for her to use for more than a month. Xiaocao said a few polite words, expressed his gratitude, and galloped all the way back to the dock.

With the help of the house town and the two of them, the pergola was almost built. The pergola is located next door to Lao Liutou's noodle stall. Today is the last time Lao Liu Tou will come to the wharf, and he is ready to end the business at the wharf regardless of whether the noodle stall can be transferred or not.

As soon as the business of the stall on the dock entered the summer, it entered the off-season, and his son was urging him to hurry, so Yu Hai wanted to take over the business of the noodle stall, and Lao Liu Tou only needed the money for the dishes and chopsticks and the capital of the remaining ingredients, and transferred it to the Yu family at a low price.

After Yu Xiaocao returned to the dock, he saw that the noodle stall next door had been transferred. The tables and stools were set up, and the cold powder and spices were also moved to the appropriate positions. There is a huge vat next to the noodle stall, which is the leftover water that Lao Liu Tou used two days ago.

Xiaocao put saltpeter into the vat in a certain proportion, and after a while, a thin layer of ice gradually formed. Xiaocao hurriedly put the iron bucket with the cold powder in the big vat. The conduction speed of the iron sheet is relatively fast, and soon the cold powder is chilled.

The house town and Yu Hai brothers who had built a shed wiped the sweat beads on their faces, took the cold cold powder in their daughter's hands, and ate it in their stomachs! What a cool word!!

Yu Xiaocao saw that there was not much cold powder with him, so he asked Yu Hai to use the noodle stall stove to raise the fire, and boiled another pot of sea vegetables. She saw that the dock workers were working under the scorching sun, and it was not easy to hear, so she added one or two drops of spirit stone water to the water. Don't look at only one or two drops, but it can quench your thirst and strengthen your body. And adding spirit stone water to boil sea hairy cabbage also has an unexpected effect. Originally, it took more than two hours to boil seaweed in simple water, which is equivalent to more than four hours. After adding Lingshi water, the sea hair cabbage is easier to cook, and it is not necessary to make a pot of cold powder in an hour.

Yu Xiaocao saw that it was still early, so he asked his godfather to use the remaining flour in the noodle stall and make a large pot of noodles. Rolling noodles is Yu Hai's specialty, and men who are used to working hard have already a lot of hand strength, and they knead the noodles even harder. Xiaocao's two fathers, under the command of the baby girl, were called around. And they are willing to eat it, even if they are sweating.

Soon, a pot of noodles was cooked! Xiaocao took a basin of ice water from the water tank, poured the cooked noodles into it, and chilled it for later use.

At this time, Xiaolian drove the little donkey cart and bought the purchased dishes and chopsticks. Another rush of cleaning, the Yu family, who had not been idle for a moment, soon ushered in a group of guests.

The first one was Lao Hao, who had been promoted to foreman, who found a seat under the pergola and sat down, wiping his sweat with his coat while smiling and saying to Xiaocao: "Xiaolian, what is delicious today?" Forget about the braised pig's head, it's too greasy, and I don't have an appetite to eat! ”

Xiaocao smiled sweetly at him and said, "Uncle Hao, you have recognized the wrong person again!" I'm not Xiaolian...... Uncle Hao, there are no braised vegetables today, and the meat dishes are too hot to be put aside. However, today there are appetizing cold noodles and cold noodles, do you want to try a bowl? ”

Lao Hao was one of Xiaocao's earliest guests and was convinced of Xiaocao's craftsmanship. He nodded and smiled: "It's Xiaocao!" Look at me, I can't tell you two sisters apart!! What did you say? Have an appetizer to eat to cool off? Give Uncle Hao a bowl...... On this day, I really want to heat people! ”

Xiaolian, who had brushed the dishes and chopsticks, was busy going to the big tank, stepped on the bench and took out a piece of cold powder from it, cut it into small squares with a knife, put it in the bowl, put some cucumber shreds on it, and poured the seasoning prepared by the grass. Then he brought this bowl of cold noodles to Lao Hao, and said with a smile: "Uncle Hao, how about you taste it?" If you have a heavy taste, there is vinegar and chili oil on the table and leave it for yourself. ”

Lao Hao was surprised to find that the cold powder in front of him exuded bursts of cool air, which made him suddenly feel dizzy. He didn't bother to pick up the spoon and took a big sip along the edge of the bowl. A cool feeling from the mouth to the bottom of the heart.

Lao Hao ate ginseng fruit like Zhu Bajie, and drank the cold powder in the bowl in three or two bites. He exhaled slowly, feeling his pores open open and reveal a cool feeling. That taste, it's so refreshing!!

"Xiaolian, give Uncle Hao another bowl!" The people in the pergola saw that Lao Hao was eating happily, and they also asked for the price, and one of them asked for a bowl. Lao Hao shouted at the busy Xiaolian.

Xiaolian agreed, quickly put the bowl with her hands and feet, put the seasoning, and then handed it to her father. Yu Hai and the house town have been reduced to running halls. No way, who calls business getting better and better! The two of them are fathers, and while they are busy, they are thinking beautifully: their daughter is amazing, and no matter what they do, they will sell well all the way!

The cold noodles on the grass side have also opened. Compared with refreshing cold noodles, cold noodles are an advantage and are full. In terms of taste, there is grass in nature will not be bad! Chilled noodles with crunchy cucumber shreds, mixed with green onions, garlic, balsamic vinegar and chili oil, are absolutely appetizing! However, compared with the fresh food of cold noodles, the sales of cold noodles are much worse.

However, the first batch of jelly was quickly sold out, and the second pot was not yet finished. Cold noodles have become the darling of dock workers, even those who have lost their appetite due to the summer heat, eat a bowl of cool and delicious cold noodles, and instantly become refreshed.

The booming business made the Yu family busy like a spinning top. Yu Hai kept rolling noodles, Xiaocao stood by the stove sweating underneath, scooping noodles and icing noodles, and Xiaolian greeted the endless stream of guests.

Fortunately, the dock workers no longer eat at the same time, otherwise they may not be able to get busy even if they have three heads and six arms. The dock workers all took advantage of the time when they were busy with a boat to come over for a quick meal. They spread the word, and soon the entire dock knew about the little sisters of the Yu family, and they made it appear to eat again. This kind of food is not only delicious but also very relieving of the heat!
