He Wenchang's expression froze.

Usually Guo Hongxing looks like a good person, even if he oversteps his authority, he won't say anything.

How did it suddenly become like this now?

He Wenchang's brain is very active.

But there are some things that I am afraid of making up for in my brain.

Because the stronger his brain replenishment ability, the more he feels that Lao Guo's words and deeds have deep meaning.

He originally planned to say something more, but Guo Hongxing waved his hand like a fly:

"Bring the door when you go out."

Lao Guo doesn't have any desire to perform, he just hates being disturbed about practicing calligraphy.

But in the eyes of He Wenchang, there are many interpretations.

Obediently, this Lao Guo won't find any new backers on the side of the provincial headquarters, right?

The reason why He Wenchang was fearless before was because his uncle was an idle section chief of the provincial headquarters.

If Lao Guo has acquaintances in the provincial headquarters, it would be better to converge in the future.

Save being targeted by him.

After all, the uncle of the provincial headquarters really doesn't have much power, and it's okay for him to be a fox and a tiger, but if something happens, he will definitely be blind.

Thinking of this, He Wenchang left Guo Hongxing's office in a gloomy manner.

When I was about to go out, I obediently closed the door.

After he left, Guo Hongxing smiled lightly:

"Xiaojie's words are really good."

Qi family.

After all the gluten pieces were cut, Qi Jie began to teach Lao Qi and Cao Guilan to wrap gluten.

The so-called wrapping is to first drag the gluten to a longer point, and then wrap it on the chopsticks, while wrapping it as much as possible, the more layers of gluten wrapping, the better the taste of eating.

After wrapping, hold it with your hand so that the gluten on the chopsticks becomes more evenly thick.

Then push it up and down again.

In this way, the ends will become very round and full.

Finally, take out your chopsticks and throw the gluten into the water to soak.

The finished gluten is very similar to the black pepper grilled sausage that was popular in later generations, regardless of size or appearance.

"It's simple, I thought it would be too much trouble."

Cao Guilan got started quickly, and after trying a few, she quickly caught up with Qi Jie's speed.

It's Lao Qi, and the clumsy old is disliked.

About half an hour later, Qi Jie looked at the dense gluten in the basin and said to Qi Yuanchao:

"Dad, go boil water, these gluten have to be boiled before you can use it, and when it's ready, I'll teach you how to cut knife flowers."

Lao Qi was obviously not suitable for this kind of work, so Qi Jie planned to let him try the knife flower.

Lao Qi got up and came to the kitchen.

Wash the pot first, then add water and start to ignite the pot.

After the water in the pot boiled, Qi Jie took out the gluten from the basin and poured it all into the pot.

"The heat is small, don't be too big, otherwise the gluten cooked out will be sticky, and you can take it out after all the boiled for ten minutes after it is all floated."

Qi Jie gave an explanation to Lao Qi, who was burning the fire, and then came to the courtyard to continue to wrap gluten with Cao Guilan.

Soon, the gluten in the pot was already cooked.

Qi Jie took it out and put it in cold water to cool.

After the temperature of the gluten completely cooled down, he began to teach Qi Yuanchao to cut flowers.

There are two common types of gluten cut flowers, one is spiral and the other is latte art.

The so-called spiral type is to put the boiled gluten into a bamboo skewer and cut it diagonally with a knife, and the cut knife flower is spiral-shaped, looking like a large spring.

In the latte art style, the two sides of the gluten are staggered and cut, and after cutting, the gluten can be pulled into a long strip like latte art.

Lao Qi looked at Qi Jieche's latte artisan, and the strength of the steel mill technician suddenly came up:

"This knife flower ...... Can you use a machine? ”

Qi Jie glanced at his father, this is not nonsense, the machine will definitely work, but the gluten cutting machine will not be launched until 2010, and now it is still honest and practical hand cutting.

But Lao Qi got caught up in the research.

He brought pen and paper to write and draw, then found a plastic bag and pocketed a few gluten:

"I'll go to Lao Zhang's place and I'll be back later."

With that, he rode out of the house.

The mother and son didn't care and continued to work.

Half an hour later, the old Qi Xing rushed back, and there was a square box welded of stainless steel tied to the back of the bike.

"Lao Zhang and I got the flower cutter out, Xiaojie, come and take a look."

Cutting machine?

Qi Jie was a little surprised.

He got up and walked to the bike, and together with Qi Yuanchao, he unloaded the stainless steel box.

It was about thirty centimeters square, with a long groove in the middle, and a long lever at the top of the groove, and a piece of stainless steel was welded to the lever.

Is this a cutting machine?

Qi Jie was just about to complain, but when he saw the inside of the groove, he was stunned.

On either side of the groove are two square tubes with uniform cutouts, each with a blade inserted into it.

The blades on both sides are staggered, spaced about half a centimeter apart.

Lao Qi took a gluten and stuffed it in, and then held the lever at the top and pressed it down, and the gluten was pressed under the groove.

He took out the pressed gluten and gently tugged at it, and a perfect latte gluten appeared in front of Qi Jie's eyes.

Wow!

Is that okay?

Although the cutting machine made by Lao Qi looks stupid and dark, it is a little thicker.

But on practical value......

It is much stronger than the flower cutting machine that Qi Jie bought for 500 yuan in his previous life.

At that time, if the flower cutter wanted to change the blade, he had to buy the official one, and Lao Qi made this, and he could change it as he wanted.

"Okay, Lao Qi, you have taken another big step on the road to quitting smoking."

Qi Jie teased his father, and then grabbed the gluten soaked in the basin and tried several times, and the more he cut it, the more he felt that it was easy to use.

There's even a little bit of it.

Originally, he was still worried about the problem of cut flowers, but it was solved by Lao Qi three or two.

The technicians in these years are really good.

The matter of cutting flowers was handed over to Qi Yuanchao, and Qi Jie and Cao Guilan continued to wrap gluten.

When it was almost six o'clock, Zhang Jun pedaled the tricycle of his family's delivery to the yard of Qi Jie's house, and there was a special car for welded baked gluten on the car.

"That's done?"

Qi Jie was overjoyed.

Zhang Dacheng pushed the bicycle and walked in from the outside, and said with a smile:

"You can see if it's okay, just talk if you need to change anything."

Qi Jie and Zhang Jun lifted the trolley down and looked around, it was welded very strongly, much stronger than the kind of things bought in the food street in later generations that fell apart at the slightest touch.

He was satisfied in every way.

"If only I could try."

Zhang Jun looked at the gluten soaked in the plate, always wanting to taste what it tasted like.

At this moment, the sound of a truck came from the door.

Li Dongming bought charcoal and came back.

Now that charcoal is cheap, Li Dongming helped Qi Jie buy one hundred and fifty catties of charcoal.

Several people unloaded the charcoal and put it in a place where the rain could not be wet.

Now that everything is ready, Qi Jie said:

"Don't go, everyone, I'll bake some gluten for everyone to taste, after all, they've been busy for most of the day."

He brought a handful of bamboo skewers and quickly threaded the cut gluten onto the bamboo skewers.

After about thirty skewers, he brought out the bucket of sauce, stirred it a few times, and then put the gluten in and dipped the gluten as much as he could.

Next, place the gluten in a tray to marinate.

Taking advantage of this time, he ignited the charcoal in the stove and placed it in the grill of the trolley.

When the charcoal was almost burned, Qi Jie grabbed the marinated gluten and put it on.

Soon, the scent came out.

The gluten was bubbling with oil, and the spicy smell made all the people in the yard can't help but look at it.

Qi Jie, on the other hand, waved his hands and kept turning over to make the gluten more evenly baked.

When the skin of the gluten dried out slightly, he dipped the dipping sauce in the bucket with a brush and re-brushed the gluten with a new layer of red oil.

Then, sprinkle the mixed cumin powder and chili powder, and bake on the grill for 30 seconds, and the common Internet celebrity baked gluten in the food street in later generations is ready.

"Come on, come on, everyone taste, I'll bake it if it's not enough."

Qi Jie grabbed the baked gluten and sent one by one, and then took one himself and tasted it.

The skin is ruddy and crispy, and as soon as you enter the mouth, the spicy flavor fills the whole mouth.

After biting into the puff pastry, the gluten inside is extraordinarily soft and tender, and the two textures are intertwined in the mouth, and the spicy taste is simply intoxicating.

"Wow, this is better than meat!"

Li Dongfang let out a satisfied sigh, he felt that this was the best thing he had ever eaten in his life.

Although the others didn't speak, they all agreed with Li Dongfang's words.

It's really better than meat.

After Cao Guilan finished eating, she reached out and took another one, then looked at Qi Jie and asked:

"How much are you going to sell this baked gluten?"

The others also looked at Qi Jie, wondering what he would do with the price.

It's so delicious, it's not good to have less.

But if it's too expensive......

A bowl of shredded pork noodles on the pedestrian street is only four or five cents, no matter how delicious this string is, it is not as enjoyable as shredded meat noodles, right?

Qi Jie says:

"I'm going to sell it for four cents a piece."

Zhang Jun ate two skewers, and wanted to take another skewer, but when he heard Qi Jie's offer, he didn't dare to eat it.

Li Dongming and Li Dongfang didn't expect Qi Jie to set such a high price.

In their opinion, two cents and one are enough.

Four cents a piece, can it open up sales on the pedestrian street?

Qi Jie said with a smile:

"I didn't want to go to the pedestrian street, I just wanted to set up a stall in front of the factory to earn money from those big girls and little daughters-in-law who like to eat snacks, and now they are the main consumers today."

In these years, the most willing to spend money are the young female workers who work in the factory, and they don't need to earn money to support their families, and they don't need to save money to build a house and buy a house.

And they don't have many places to spend money, except for the market, the place where they can buy goods is the department store on the other side of the pedestrian street.

So once this baked gluten is introduced, they will definitely rush to it.

After listening to Qi Jie's explanation, everyone is very confident in making money.

Only Lao Qi looked worried.

He sighed softly:

"I'm about to quit smoking......"
