If you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your tools.

There is still a lot of truth to that.

Dong Xiaowan was still worried that because of Ivan's crazy experiment, Xiaowan's buns might not sell tonight.

Not to mention anything else, just boiling the skin jelly, according to the normal situation, it will take at least two hours, and then it will be chilled, and the time seems to be a little too late.

But she never expected that the skin jelly would be boiled in half an hour.

Moreover, today's jelly is worse and of better quality than in the past.

And the reason for this is due to the thing called the pressure cooker that Derpy brought.

"Why is it so amazing?"

Because she was puzzled, Dong Xiaowan used the word magic.

It's amazing indeed!

"Some people in the West have found that if you simmer the steam and prevent it from running away, the pressure in the pot will increase, and the cooking will become fast and rotten, so the pressure cooker was invented. ”

In this era when the foundation of mathematics, physics and chemistry is still close to zero, it is difficult to explain the truth of science clearly, and Ivan can only change to a popular explanation.

"It's really amazing!"

Dong Xiaowan accepted this statement.

There are so many things in Ivan that she can't explain that she has slowly gotten used to.

Since the problem of boiling skin jelly has been successfully solved, the matter of Xiaowan buns tonight will not be affected.

Dong Xiaowan was a little excited.

She asked, "Do you want to push Derpy's shrimp dumplings tonight?"

In her opinion, the soup dumplings she developed are called Xiaowan buns, and the shrimp dumplings developed by Derpy naturally have to be called Derpy shrimp dumplings, so that they are symmetrical.

Ivan shook his head.

"You can't be in such a hurry. ”

He began to explain the reason: "Xiaowan buns have just been pushed, and customers have to be given a little time to get used to and get used to its taste, and when a considerable number of people feel familiar and tired, it is time to launch new products." ”

This is again a marketing technique for later generations.

In Guangdong, once a chef develops a new dish, it will not be immediately promoted, but depends on whether the new dish exists and the popularity of the same kind is declining.

The reason is simple.

The current crystal shrimp dumplings, in terms of taste, are more than a step better than Xiaowan buns.

Anything is afraid of contrasts.

If you push the crystal shrimp dumplings too early, after the comparison, some customers who are not bad for money will lose interest in Xiaowan buns.

This is not what Ivan wants.

Although it is said that the crystal shrimp dumplings have overshadowed Xiaowan buns in terms of food level, it is undeniable that Xiaowan buns are already a very good dim sum, and he can't let it be annihilated.

Dong Xiaowan asked again: "Then how much will Xiaowan prepare for tonight?"

"Xiaowan poured 80 cages of soup dumplings and 20 cages of crystal buns. ”

Dong Xiaowan was a little puzzled at this time.

Since the crystal dough is not difficult to make now, why not push more crystal bags?

The price of the crystal bag is almost double the price of the soup packet!

"Is it because crystal flour is precious?"

"Not really. ”

Ivan vetoed her question first.

This question is actually one that Ivan is seriously considering.

To be honest, Xiao Wan Soup Dumpling and Xiao Wan Crystal Bun, except for the slight difference in visual effect and dough texture, there is no difference between the soup and the filling inside.

For ordinary people, the taste in the mouth is actually about the same, if there is a difference, it is mainly the psychological difference caused by the visual effect.

Therefore, as soon as the freshness is over, most diners will sensibly choose Xiaowan soup dumplings that are half cheaper because of the huge price difference between the two, thus leaving the crystal buns out in the cold.

As a last resort, Ivan must continue to use the hunger marketing model to maintain the prestige of the crystal bag and let the rich people who are not bad pay for it.

The same goes for soup packets.

With the speed at which several people are now cooperating, it is not difficult to run two hundred cages in one night, but Ivan does not dare.

Although Qinlou is a large-scale comprehensive entertainment venue, integrating food and play, the overall passenger flow is still limited, and Ivan does not dare to push too much at once.

If people get tired of it soon, the business will slowly disappear.

For this number, Dong Xiaowan is already very satisfied.

She calculated that 80 cages of soup dumplings were 64 taels, 30 cages of crystal packets were 45 taels, adding up to 109 taels, and there were more than 50 taels after half of them.

If she continues with this trend, she will be able to get out of the sea of suffering in less than a month.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but glance at Ivan again.

The reason why I can see hope in life again is because of Derpy!

Dong Xiaowan's eyes were filled with gratitude.

"What's wrong?"

Ivan didn't understand Dong Xiaowan's eyes.

He didn't think much about it, and continued: "By the way, you and Tie Niu will watch the buns tomorrow morning, I may not be able to rush over, just pack as much as you can, it's still a principle, don't wrap too many crystal bags at a time." ”

Dong Xiaowan was a little puzzled again, she asked curiously, "Don't you live in Qin Tower?"

Ivan: "......"

Can I live in Qinlou?

Can you still stay here and prostitute?

Even if I wanted to, I didn't have any money!

He immediately shook his head: "Don't stop, I'll leave after steaming the buns at night." ”

Dong Xiaowan's expression immediately darkened.

Didn't you say he was alone?

Didn't Qin Lou arrange a place for you to live?

Why don't you live?

Are you lying to me? You still have a home in Jinling?

......

Obviously, Dong Xiaowan is thinking too much about it.

Before she knew it, she had taken Ivan as a dependent.

This is quite normal.

For a woman in troubled times and in the center of the whirlpool, she always longs to grasp a straw that can save her life.

And Ivan, who suddenly appeared, was far more than a straw for Dong Xiaowan, but a boat that could take her out of the whirlpool.

It's just that Dong Xiaowan is a reserved person, and Ivan is too mysterious to her. Therefore, even if she thought too much, she did not continue to ask loudly, but buried herself in her work.

There are also people who think too much.

Because of jealousy, Chef Zheng has been paying attention to Dong Xiaowan's movements.

He finally discovered that something was wrong between Ivan and Dong Xiaowan.

At the end of this day, Dong Xiaowan and Ivan ran back and forth in the kitchen, Dong Xiaowan's attitude towards Ivan was not at all like Qin Lou's celebrity treatment of kitchen boys, but like Dong Xiaowan was listening to Ivan's ideas everywhere.

Chef Zheng finally came to his senses.

The reason why Xiaowan buns became popular all of a sudden has a lot to do with him, a new apprentice!

The reason why Dong Xiaowan was able to make crystal shrimp dumplings with better taste today also has a lot to do with him, a new apprentice!

By the way, that crystal skin was taught to Dong Xiaowan by Ivan!

He finally remembered something he had neglected.

Alas, it seems that this new apprentice is not easy!

Chef Zheng is thinking about it again.

For Dong Xiaowan, although he was jealous, he was helpless.

But Ivan was different.

This is a newcomer, and nominally his apprentice!

Therefore, this afternoon, Chef Zheng went back to the kitchen early, and when Ivan and Tie Niu returned to the back kitchen and were ready to kill the fish, he came over.

"Derpy, come with me. ”
