Chapter 254: Sour Plum Soup
"Suspicious people don't need to be suspicious, Mrs. Jia will let go and do it boldly, I will sit here some time before opening the store, and when you are familiar with the process, you will have full jurisdiction."
Qi Ling could see that Mrs. Jia was a very principled person, and with her previous experience in business, she must be able to manage this small shop properly.
This is called reserve talents, there are still a lot of shops to open in the future, and each store needs to be able to handle affairs in one stop store manager, now it is just starting, and there is still time.
Mrs. Jia thought about it again and again, and finally gritted her teeth and agreed, "Okay, since Shopkeeper Qi is so trustworthy to the little woman, then I will definitely do my best!" ”
"It seems that Mrs. Jia is full of fighting spirit! In this way, tomorrow you will come to Fushou Building, we will discuss the layout of the shop, as well as the formulation of dishes, although it is a small shop, but it can not be sloppy. ”
"It's nature, then the key will be given to you first, and the little woman will come tomorrow." Mrs. Jia readily agreed.
The three of them said goodbye to each other on the streets of Liuxi Street, Qi Ling looked at the back of Mrs. Jia leaving, and his heart was mixed for a while.
When she first saw Mrs. Jia, there was an imperceptible gloom and sadness in her eyes, but the moment she made up her mind just now, the gloom brightened up again, and with the hope of rebirth, the whole person seemed to be rejuvenated with endless spirit.
Qi Ling felt that he had done a good deed, he could make money and do good deeds, so why not do it?
Gu Jinfeng didn't say anything during the whole process of accompaniment, just quietly watched the development of the situation, but he still didn't understand Qi Ling's rental of such a remote shop.
He said lightly, "Now the daily money in Fushoulou is enough for you to buy a shop, why choose such a place, if you are just sympathetic to others, you might as well deal with the accounts more." ”
Qi Ling grimaced at him, "I'm not that kind of person!" Mrs. Jia's shop isn't very good! ”
Gu Jinfeng glared at her, "It's in the middle of nowhere, although the rent is cheaper, but backed by the stable income of Fushoulou, why can't you find a better one?" ”
"Look at you, it's not the first time I've been in business, how come I don't know the importance of location? But I'll just ask you a question, does the food I cook in this shop have it in other shops? ”
As soon as these words came out, Gu Jinfeng was stunned for a moment, "Yes, no...... But ......"
Qi Ling pouted and said, "But what is it, just like Fushoulou, there is only one medical center in Suming County now, to put it bluntly, it is a monopoly operation, there was an Anrentang before, but now there are no competitors, as long as our things are good enough, it is basically not worrying about the flow of customers." ”
"This snack shop is actually like this, these foods I sell are unique in Suming County, even if other stores imitate it later, but the big guys recognize my taste, and it will be difficult to grab customers!"
Gu Jinfeng was dumbfounded, why didn't he find out that this girl was so clever and eloquent before?
But after thinking about it carefully, what she said is not unreasonable, and she can come up with such a unique business method.
On the way back, Qi Ling went to the little brother to buy some preserved fruits, and said that he might have to supply them for a long time in the future, and asked him if he had any intention of cooperating.
"Shopkeeper Qi, this is going to open a store again?" The little brother was stunned for a moment, and then laughed, "That's absolutely no problem, the preserved fruits here are all made of freshly picked fruits in Poplar Village, using the unique craftsmanship left by my father, if you want a large amount, the price will definitely be cheaper for you!" ”
Qi Ling responded with a smile, "That's it, you can get some for each of me today, I'll go back and try which one is better, and then I'll come to you to place a long-term order!" ”
"Howler!"
There are seven or eight kinds of preserved fruits here now, although each one only takes half a catty, which is quite heavy, so the matter of carrying the basket is handed over to Gu Jinfeng.
Thinking that Mrs. Jia will come to discuss the recipe tomorrow, in addition to preserved fruits, brown sugar and fresh fruits, she also bought some, when the time comes, you can boil it in syrup and chop it together with the preserved fruit and put it in the ice powder, the taste will definitely be more delicious!
Carrying a lot of things back, Rao is Gu Jinfeng has good physical strength, and a layer of fine sweat appeared on his forehead.
Qi Ling hurriedly brought well water, and handed him the cold and cold handkerchief soaked, "Quickly wipe your sweat, I'll make some sour plum soup to drink." ”
"Sour plum soup? What is it? Gu Jinfeng held the handkerchief with a puzzled expression.
"The summer anti-heat holy product, sweet and sour, but it takes more time, and now it is estimated that you can drink it for dinner." After speaking, Qi Ling hurriedly went to the medicinal herb warehouse.
Take the dried black plum hawthorn tangerine peel and licorice, wash it and soak it in water for an hour, then take it out and pour it into the pot and boil it for half an hour, then put out the light brown soup, put it aside, then add water to continue to boil for half an hour, and finally release the rock sugar, take out the unformed residue that has been boiled, and mix the two soups to cool.
Qi Ling took the spoon and tasted it first, the sweet and sour was just right, but this sour plum soup still had to be cooled to be more delicious.
So I took a sling rope and sealed it and put it in the well to cool, and when it was time for dinner, there was sour plum soup to drink!
The boiling of sour plum soup is not difficult, the main thing is that it is more time-consuming, so when the weather is not yet hot, Qi Ling does not plan to boil sour plum soup in large quantities, just supply it to the guys.
At dinner, the sour plum soup really received unanimous praise, and even the dark thirteen, who didn't like to talk much, generously praised it and said, "It's delicious." ”
Meng Huan, as a doctor, knew what it was made of as soon as he tasted it, and nodded with satisfaction, "The recipe with this combination is somewhat similar to the digestion soup, but the taste is better, and it is good to drink more of this when the weather is hot." ”
Qi Ling smiled and accepted everyone's praise, "It's still good to be taught by Doctor Meng, otherwise how can I, a little white in medicinal materials, understand this!" ”
Meng Huan has been in a very good mood these days, and his life has stabilized a lot since the matter of An Rentang was resolved, and there is still good food and drink every day, and he faintly feels that he has gained a lot of weight.
Everyone in Fushoulou gathered together happily at the moment, but Zhou Cheng, who was beaten back that day, was not so easy to solve, and the right hand that was captured went back to rest for several days before he barely felt something, and then no matter how much he took medicine, he couldn't see it well, so after scolding the Hu steward fiercely, he got into the carriage and went back to the capital.
As soon as he arrived at the Zhou Mansion, the housekeeper hurriedly greeted him, "Young Master, you can be regarded as back, the famous doctor in the capital has arrived, you hurry up and take a look." ”
Then several family members came out and helped him in.
After an examination by the Ming doctor, he found that only a few acupuncture points were sealed, and he quickly took out silver and stabbed the acupuncture points slightly, Zhou Cheng felt that the blood flow that was originally blocked was suddenly unblocked, and the whole arm was no longer as crispy and numb as before.
He moved a little, and found that he didn't feel that tingling anymore, and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Two more pairs of medicines are prepared here, and you can get better after taking them for two days." The doctor, who was already completely white, simply gave a few words of instruction and got up and went to the outside to write a prescription, and as soon as the doctor left, the housekeeper walked in, frowning, and said, "Who dares to treat you like this?" ”
"Who?" Zhou Cheng moved his arm and snorted coldly, "Young Master Ben, let me ask you, how could this Lin Shoufu's person appear in such a small place as Suming County?" What happened in the capital during the time I was out?! ”
The butler persuaded with a tangled look on his face, "Young master, it's really hard to talk about the affairs of the court now, but you can rest assured that there is absolutely no problem on the master's side!" ”
Zhou Cheng's face was gloomy, and he looked at him for a long time before he said, "I hope so, you go and check someone for me, called Gu Jinfeng." ”
"Surname Gu?" The housekeeper was slightly stunned when he heard this surname, which attracted Zhou Cheng's attention, "What, what's wrong with this surname Gu?" ”
