Passing through the farmhouse, the koi carp is possessed to open the road to food and prosperity Chapter 46: Secret beef offal sauce
Customers are attracted by the "dart dart", have called a lot of relatives and friends to help bargain, some will be happy when they get the right price, and some will be depressed if they don't cut, and continue to ask people to help bargain.
Sheng Guo'er saw that the event was almost underway, all the main customers had already negotiated the price, and some new customers had been added, so she said: "Today's event has ended, please come and pick up your goods with your receipts in a month." โ
The patrons felt that they had taken advantage of it and went happily.
Zhou Rui felt that he must have lost money this time, because several customers cut nearly half of the price at once.
Sheng Guo'er saw that Zhou Rui was in a bad state, so she said with a smile: "Zhou Rui, what's wrong, do you feel like you're losing?" โ
Zhou Rui said: "That's right, I feel like it's a loss." โ
Sheng Guo'er said: "Then you calculate the cost, and then calculate our profits." โ
Zhou Rui asked people to start calculating costs and profits together, but when everyone finished calculating the accounts, they all showed surprised looks.
Zhou Rui held the account book and said, "How is this possible, how can I make 5,000 yuan instead?" โ
Sheng Guo'er explained while pacing: "The permanent population of Ping'an Township is 50,000, and the population living in the township is 30,000. โ
Zhou Rui and the others were a little stupid when they heard this, Sheng Guo'er smiled indifferently: "This is just a very simple probability problem, in this way, everyone helps to bargain, but it helps us expand our influence and make money." โ
Although Zhou Rui was a little puzzled, she admired Sheng Guoer's wisdom very much.
The Sheng family's dart and dart activities attracted almost everyone in the city to buy the Sheng family's meat sauce, which made the Zhong family and several other sauce shops feel very strange and at the same time feel a crisis.
Sauce shops all rely on two things to survive, one is the supply of raw materials, and the other is the secret recipe.
The Zhong family's wealth is strong, with the supply of official fields, and their own unique secret recipes, they have become a time-honored brand, but because of the novelty of the recipe, the Sheng family has fully received all the assets of the Jin family's shop, so its strength should not be underestimated.
Although business competition is a common thing, but Master Zhong, who is accustomed to seeing strong winds and waves, is still very uncomfortable with this, even if Jin Jiayu is powerful, he only dares to make some corners and corners in Xifeng Village and township, and no one dares to make the city full of wind and rain like Sheng Guoer.
Shengguo'er's jam and bolognese sauce are also very different from the popular sauces on the market today, and it seems that they have never been seen before.
Mr. Zhong bought some, but he couldn't find a way to do it.
Of course, Master Zhong couldn't find it, the recipe of Sheng Guo'er came from modern times, and the proportion used couldn't be tasted.
Just when Master Zhong was at a loss, the second young master of the Zhong family came back from the capital.
Zhong Zipan is the third young master of the Zhong family, but the second young master Zhong Mingyuan served in the palace and served as his father Zhong Zhengyang's deputy.
Although Zhong Mingyuan is a cook, he is also a gentleman, cunning and wise, whimsical, and likes to innovate, so his dishes are known for their novelty. So father and son worked together to develop new recipes for meat pรขtรฉs and sauces.
This time, Zhong Mingyuan returned to his hometown to visit relatives, which was also ordered by his father, with the purpose of re-injecting a new formula into the family's industry.
As soon as Zhong Mingyuan's carriage entered the city, he saw that the people on the street were rushing towards one place, and he was a little strange, so he asked, "What's the matter?" โ
The little guy went to ask and replied, "Young master, they said they were going to get some 'darts and darts'!" โ
Zhong Mingyuan frowned, he had never heard of any "spelling darts", his eyes lit up when he had always been curious, and he waved his hand and said, "Go and see!" โ
When he arrived at the Sheng family's store, he realized that his peers were doing some activities, but he had never seen these activities, so he also ordered some new meat sauce hidden in the crowd, and also bought some meat sauce and sauce at the store.
Knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent can not be defeated in a hundred battles, this is the creed that Zhong Mingyuan has always followed.
Therefore, as soon as the carriage arrived home, Zhong Mingyuan didn't care about washing away the dust, so he went straight to his grandfather Zhong Dingxin.
"Yuan'er, you're back!" Zhong Dingxin smiled when he saw this excellent child, the grandfather and grandson shook hands and got close, and then Zhong Mingyuan helped his grandfather sit down, and he sat down at the bottom of his grandfather.
"Everything in the palace is stable, right?" Although Zhong Dingxin was relieved of his son, he still wanted to ask.
"The Queen Mother has not had a good appetite recently, but her father and children have developed a new meat sauce, and the Queen Mother has improved a little after using it, but she is still a little unsafe." Zhong Mingyuan said worriedly.
"The Queen Mother is old, and it is inevitable that the taste is a little strange, as long as she still approves of your dishes and sauces." Zhong Dingxin comforted his grandson, and then the topic turned to the current situation: "But right now, we have to face a problem." โ
Zhong Mingyuan took out the predetermined bill and some meat sauce and said, "Grandpa, didn't you say the sauce for Sheng Guo'er?" โ
Zhong Dingxin's eyes lit up and asked, "How do you know?" โ
Zhong Mingyuan said: "When I entered the city, I also went to participate in the 'Dart Dart', this Sheng Guoer's marketing methods are really good, I didn't expect such a way to market." โ
Zhong Dingxin stroked his beard, frowned and said: "You're right, this Sheng Guo'er is not a simple character, last time your brother bullied her brother Sheng Shi and was beaten by her, we have to thank her for our losses." โ
What? Zhong Mingyuan was a little strange, and Zhong Dingxin told Zhong Mingyuan what happened.
Zhong Mingyuan pondered for a moment and said, "It seems that this woman is talented, and it is not simple. We have to be careful. โ
Zhong Dingxin said: "Why don't we also get a 'dart dart', with the strength of our family, it should bring some customers back." โ
Zhong Mingyuan thought for a while and said: "Grandpa, if we do it, it will inevitably end up with a dog's tail and a mink, so let's change our strategy." โ
Zhong Dingxin asked, "What strategy?" โ
Zhong Mingyuan thought about it and analyzed: "Sheng Guo'er must have two reasons for doing this, the first is that she wants to become famous, but with her current strength, it will be too much pressure to become famous too early; Then there can only be a second explanation, she is not in a supply of raw materials for the meat sauce now, so she can only use this way to delay the production time. โ
Zhong Dingxin nodded and said, "Then we used the power of the government to cut off her supply?" โ
Zhong Mingyuan smiled, thinking that doing so would inevitably make people immediately understand that the Zhong family was using power and status to oppress people and cut off the root of the family.
Zhong Mingyuan said: "Grandpa, if you cut off the supply of goods like this, it is inevitable that there will be a suspicion of oppression with power." It is better for us to publicly declare that the Zhong family wants to buy large quantities for the imperial court, and needs a lot of pork and vegetables, so that we can justifiably take the lead. โ
Zhong Dingxin smiled: "Good idea, the pork and vegetables are gone, I'll see what she uses to make the sauce!" โ
So the next day, the Zhong family issued a notice that they needed a large amount of pork and vegetables, and the Zhong family's wealth was very strong, so many butchers turned against each other and sold to the Zhong family, and many other sauce shops simply cooperated directly with the Zhong family to help the Zhong family produce sauces and became vassals.
Zhou Rui ran to Sheng Guoer's house in a hurry and told Sheng Guoer the bad news.
"What should I do, Sister Guo'er, we don't have pork now, how to make sauce!"
Even Zhang Butcher's meat has been bought, and now Sheng Guo'er is facing another crisis.
Sheng Guo'er pondered for a moment and said, "The Zhong family is doing this to justifiably cut off our supply. This is the bottom of the kettle! โ
Zhou Rui said anxiously: "Now I'm waiting for it." โ
Sheng Guo'er groaned for a while, and at this time, suddenly there was a cow cry, Sheng Guo'er asked, "Whose cow is barking?" โ
Zhou Rui looked outside and said, "It's the voice from Killing Cow Alley." โ
Sheng Guo'er asked, "What is Cow Killing Alley?" โ
Zhou Rui explained, this cattle killing alley is a place specially set up by the government to slaughter old and dead cultivated cattle, in ancient times it was illegal to kill the cultivated cattle privately, but it is a pity that the old and dead cultivated cattle were discarded, so the cattle killing alley was specially set up, so that the people can also eat beef, but the price is relatively expensive, not as cheap as pork.
Sheng Guo'er knows some ancient knowledge somewhat, the economic and cultural background of this dynasty is mixed with some characteristics of the Three Kingdoms, the Two Jin Dynasty and the Song Dynasty, this can't slaughter cattle, and the price of pork is close to the Song Dynasty, in this case, why not use this to make a fuss?
Sheng Guo'er knew that using beef as a raw material was very expensive, so she asked, "Is there anyone with beef offal?" โ
Zhou Rui shook his head and said, "The offal is all some water, and no one wants it." Take it to the manure. โ
Sheng Guo'er pursed her lips and smiled, and said, "You go to Killing Cow Alley to buy a pair of beef heart and liver, and then buy two pairs of tripe, wash them and bring them to me." โ
Zhou Rui asked, "What are you going to do?" โ
Sheng Guo'er smiled: "Of course it's meat sauce." And it's the offal sauce you've never seen before! โ
Zhou Rui hurriedly sent someone to buy beef offal, Sheng Guo'er said: "Boil the cauldron, blanch the offal, add green onions, ginger and white wine!" โ
Zhou Rui did as he said, Sheng Guoer personally cooked, washed the blanched beef offal again, and then cut it into sections, and then sprinkled with green onions, ginger, garlic and salt to develop it, about an hour later, Sheng Guoer melted the lard in the pot, and then put in star anise, cinnamon, bay leaves, chili peppers and other things, fried the fragrance and then put in the marinated beef offal and stir-fried together, and then added a lot of water, and put some spices enough.
"Go boil some beef bone broth!" Sheng Guo'er looked at the red and glamorous offal and said.
After boiling the beef bone broth, Sheng Guoer put it into the beef offal soup, simmered it over a slow fire, and gradually solidified into a sauce.
"Taste it!" Sheng Guo'er wiped her sweat and let the workers taste it.
After Ji Long tasted it, he hurriedly shouted: "Rice, rice, I want rice!" Then he ran to the stove room and filled a large bowl of leftover rice, and ate the offal sauce in a big gulp.
"Sister Guo'er, this offal sauce is fresh and spicy, full of ingredients, and the beef is strong, very good for rice, there is no better sauce than this!" The other workers also served their meals and ate a pot of beef offal sauce.
Sheng Guo'er said: "Zhou Rui, you go and buy twenty pairs of beef heart, beef liver and tripe, and make beef offal sauce according to this secret recipe!" โ
Zhou Rui said happily: "Now we are saved!" โ
At this moment, the fragrance has filled the entire courtyard, and even the people outside can smell it.
"The Sheng family really lives up to its reputation, saying that it makes secret meat sauce, and it is really secret, and this fragrance even smells us outside."
For a while, the rumors that the Sheng family's secret meat sauce was super fragrant spread.
Zhong Mingyuan said in surprise: "How is it possible! โ
