Chapter 99: Survive the Kebab Famous
The anti-corruption campaign has been applied for four times and is not allowed to sign a contract, perhaps the result of the real anti-corruption work, or perhaps the virtual and ethereal myth of the money copper smell, but the national anti-corruption struggle is the direction, and it is also the top priority advocated by the central government. Because of the lack of experience at the beginning, the meat slices are cut large and thick and grilled, which is also the result of half the profit, not only causing more and more people to wait, but also eating meat skewers without giving money to go, because the result of too many people surrounding the barbecue.
Experience is also gradually accumulated, when selling meat skewers, don't hand the grilled meat to a person, this time give him 6 will give 9 next time, last time I gave 8 this time to 7, all 15 skewers 3 yuan is also good to settle accounts, and it avoids the phenomenon of leaving without paying.
People don't want to eat too much mutton for beef, the meat slices are cut thinner, because the charcoal fire kebab is used for fast oiling, sprinkled on the meat skewers with refined salt, chili noodles and small meat fragrance, through the kneading of the roasted oil can play a uniform role, so it is necessary to use butter or sheep's tail to cut thicker, especially the fresh meat, the smell of small meat incense in the charcoal fire, as if mixed with smoke rich aroma is so tempting.
When you buy it, you need to use a pot to simmer and dry, and while it is hot, you need to put it on the panel and roll it into fine powder with a bottle, which is a high-quality raw material, which can be said to be comparable to the so-called cumin. Although Dapeng sells beef skewers with sheep's tails, it is also the demand of customers. I get up at five o'clock in the morning every day to go to the house where the cow is killed, the purpose is to buy the meat on the back rump of the cow first, which has no tendons and is tender and tender. Not only do you have to buy five catties of beef every day for 15 yuan, but also buy three catties of sheep's tail for 6 yuan, plus charcoal, refined salt, and small meat fragrance, the cost is 24 yuan, and each string sells for two dimes, and the 320 meat skewers can be sold for more than 60 yuan, and the monthly income reaches 1,000 yuan.
In addition to cooking, Hua Ying also has to carry the child to cut meat, that is also a technical job, cut thick, small is not good, 8 pounds of meat and sheep tail cut for several hours, not only the weight of the child is cumbersome, sometimes he is also on the back, standing for a long time and the numbness of the legs have to insist. In addition to getting up early to buy meat, raw materials or wholesale charcoal, Dapeng can only skewer 60 meat skewers per hour at home, with two pieces of sheep's tail oil sandwiched between each skewer of three slices of beef, and then go out to grill and sell meat skewers.
When I started selling, there was always a shortage of supply, and sometimes I went out and went home in less than an hour. A police officer was talking to a neighbor when he saw Dapeng lighting a charcoal fire and riding a bicycle to sell meat skewers. There are people who have talked about playing money in advance, and whoever wins the money has to invite guests to eat meat skewers, so when they come, throwing down 20 yuan is 100 skewers, and the phenomenon of eating one-third of them also happens from time to time.
It is 80 meters away from Dapeng's house at the crossroads, not only surrounded by family buildings, but also baths and middle schools in the south, especially in the north is a fully enclosed kindergarten, when the workers come to pick up their children from work, they not only see the people around the meat skewer car, but also see the smoke billowing like the atomic bomb explosion, especially the aroma is charming, not only children want to eat adults but also to make. Due to its unique geographical location, it has contributed to the prosperity of Dapeng's business.
Dapeng and kindergarten seem to have an indissoluble bond, in the kindergarten of the Corps met Sheng Yaqin, that is his first love experienced ten unforgettable nights of a lifetime, although the twists and turns changed the past, the Cultural Revolution movement is the key to their combination of tragedy, in the end, it is also the demon of ethics who took her precious life. Dapeng came to sell meat skewers in front of the kindergarten in danger, as if this was also God's arrangement, but I hope that it will not be as twists and turns as the past of marriage and love, and I hope to create new life expectations for the whole family.
Seeing that his uncle's business was booming, Yanbo came out with a limp and a kebab, right at the entrance of the market diagonally opposite his house, although it was 80 meters away from Dapeng, but he played a role in intercepting the road on it. Yanbo kebabs are completely foiled, dad helps buy ingredients, mom helps cut meat, skewers meat, and every morning Dapeng buys beef and sheep tails on behalf of him. Because I went to the cattle slaughterer to buy meat and paid for one day, my sister-in-law also paid the first day when she came to get the meat the next day.
There are many families with 20,000 workers in the locomotive factory, and in addition to the monthly income of nearly 300 yuan, there are other incomes, such as those who do business in addition to their salaries, and the elderly who are subsidized. Especially the young families are only children, and the six pairs of eyes look at a little baby, which is the eyeballs and lifeblood of grandparents, grandparents, grandparents, and aunts, uncles, and uncles, who are simply princesses and little emperors. There is money everywhere here, even selling popsicles, ice cream, and cigarette rolls to support the family.
Selling meat skewers not only earns 1,000 yuan a month, but the life of the family is far more than that of the locomotive factory workers, because sometimes the bought beef ribs are also substituted, and the stewed potatoes with the tendons removed are called a fragrant, and they can't finish eating every day, so they have to give them to their neighbors.
The locomotive factory workers also came to kebab after they were dismissed, at first two or three, and then five or six stalls to grab business, and none of them sold as fast as Dapeng. Selling meat skewers is the same as selling vegetables, although the price of the same vegetables is the same, as long as there are more people buying at one stall, it will attract more people to buy it, as if it is better than others. Dapeng was the first to have old customers for barbecue skewers, which has an advantage in barbecue technology, especially the barbecued meat skewers are always freshly grilled and delicious. If no one buys the grilled meat skewers for a few minutes, the meat will shrink and dry on the inlays, not only will there be no freshly grilled tender taste, but the meat will not be able to bite off the skewers. Those who sell meat skewers can only open when the three hundred skewers of Dapeng are sold out, so they can only go to the top to make business with Yanbo.
Not only the locomotive factory sells meat skewers, but also the three hospitals and the prosperous places in Datong City, which are 15 miles away, and eating meat skewers is also an indispensable delicacy for the citizens. Dapeng doesn't care about the cold, the wind and rain, he is busy all day long. Even on a rainy day, some big girls and little daughters-in-law have to eat a few skewers of rain with trees or telephone poles.
On Sunday, parents took their children to the city, and the children ate meat skewers and had to go back to the locomotive factory to eat the "old man's" meat skewers, because they were used to the taste. In Datong, people call the old man "old man", because of Dapeng's hard work caused by haggard aging, he is only 43 years old, people call him "old man", some thirty or forty years old with children to eat meat skewers, and finally let children give "sticks" to "grandpa", or let children say "goodbye to grandpa", although this is a civilized irony, Dapeng feels particularly gratified.
How fulfilling the life of the workers of Datong Locomotive Factory is, compared to the hometown of Shandong, it is a paradise. Dapeng sold meat skewers for half a year and saved thousands of yuan, he thought that the old man in Shandong had to send letters, send money, let the old man spend all the pension, and buy wood to build a house, because the Spring Festival business here is good and can not go back, I wish the old man to take care of his health and have a good year.
People in Shanxi Province light up a fire on the night of the Spring Festival and Chinese New Year's Eve, and the yard of the workers living in the bungalow piles up a block of coal one person high, and the middle is empty and lit with wood, and the fire is lit for several hours, which means that the year will be prosperous. The sound of firecrackers also resounded in all directions, especially at 12 o'clock in the middle of the night, and almost the afterglow of firecrackers reflected the night sky.
The fifteenth day of the first lunar month is the most lively day of the locomotive factory, the square in front of the factory is covered with model lanterns, colorful fireworks bloom in the air after nightfall, and people in festive costumes bustle all over the streets and squares. People enjoy the lanterns, guess riddles, and watch the ice lanterns, which is the most cheerful and happy festival for the employees and families of the whole factory.
This day is also the most selling meat skewers in the year, from two o'clock in the afternoon Dapeng roasting, the day is still bright 1500 skewers sold out, that is the whole family did not sleep overnight, the next day and go all out to process the result, Hongli, Ruihua each string of a penny, sheep tail smell smoked so that they have a headache retching, even then there are 1500 skewers is not enough to sell.
Be content, earn 200 yuan a day for five or six days, people are celebrating the holidays, and it's time for the children to go to the lantern world to play.
The north road of Dapeng's house is the compound of the geological team's building, but Secretary Ji and his wife live in the downstairs bungalow, they are not only neighbors, but the old couple are approachable and give Dapeng's family a lot of help. Secretary Ji gave the annual coal ticket to Dapeng to ensure life, a ton of mixed coal with a block is only 20.5 yuan, usually what is delicious to give each other, the relationship between the two families is particularly close. The relationship between the Dapeng family and those neighbors who come to work in the countryside is also very good, and they often visit each other, invite each other to eat, and have a harmonious relationship, which may be connected by the same fate.
On Sunday, the students were on vacation, Xiao Ruihua took Hao Liang, who was only a few months old, to the neighbor's house, the building blocks that the neighbor bought for the child were very fun, Rui Hua only cared about appreciating but forgot about Xiao Haoliang, never expected him to knock down the thermos, and the legs under the little belly were scalded with boiling water, and Xiao Haoliang cried hoarsely. The injury was red at first, and then it was already covered with blisters, so Hua Ying had to go to the hospital with the crying Haoliang. Because the boiling water burns the pores, it will leave a lifelong scar when it heals and is discharged from the hospital.
An old cadre in casual clothes often comes to the Dapeng meat skewer stall to watch, chat and get to know each other. His surname is Wang, he is the political commissar of the Xinjiang Military Region, and he came to visit relatives at the home of Director Wang, a girl from the locomotive factory. Since he was the political commissar of the military region, Dapeng told him with high expectations that he had been killed in retaliation for reporting and accusing foreign journalists.
Political Commissar Wang wanted to go to the material, because he was Wang Zhen's guard when he was in the 359 Brigade in Yan'an, and now Wang Zhen is the vice president of the state, he went directly to Beijing to come to General Wang Zhen's house, but he never expected that the two would quarrel over this. Political Commissar Wang flew to the Lanzhou Cadre Rest House in a fit of rage, and those old cadres could only persuade: "Let him do business to support his family." Dapeng listened to the introduction of Political Commissar Wang and was still very grateful.
Hu Yaobang's sudden death shook the world, and the students in Beijing intercepted the hearse in ** Square, and they had to give an explanation from the central government. Then, Li Shuxian and others launched an anti-official student movement, and reactionary elements at home and abroad took the opportunity to fan the flames in an attempt to subvert the leadership of the centralized government, and launched a hunger strike of students in ** Square in order to overthrow the people's government.
Some people persuaded Dapeng to go to Beijing to complain, this is a political struggle that hurts those who are close to each other and is quick to be an enemy, especially when they see the TV of those soldiers who were burned, it seems that the movement has reappeared. As a Chinese who wants to establish a patriotic heart, he is sensitive to the fact that the passengers on the train need to be controlled, and it is difficult to pass through Beijing, because there are still elderly people in Shandong, and they must move back to Shandong immediately.
