Chapter 48: Hot and sour soup and pancakes

"Lord Wang, the room that Lin Xiangjun and his wife cleaned by themselves." In the palace, Steward Xu reported to Xia Changyan.

"Didn't you arrange for your subordinates?" Xia Changyan asked.

"Yes, it was arranged, but Lin Xiangjun returned it, and only said thank you to the prince."

Steward Xu sighed in his heart, "Lord Wang, that shop is not big, and I will make snacks when I listen to Miss Lin's wishes." ”

Xia Changyan nodded: "Got it." ”

Xia Changyan completely understood Lin Banxia's thoughts.

Lin Banxia was in a good mood.

She and Wang spent a day cleaning the newly purchased shop, adding ready-made furniture, and buying daily necessities.

Leaving the palace was also very smooth - Xia Changyan was not in the palace because of something.

Lin Banxia hired a craftsman to reopen the chimney, repaired two stoves, and bought pots and pans, rice, flour, and grain condiments.

"Mother, the hot and sour soup is very simple." There was originally a stove in the kitchen, and Lin Banxia began to demonstrate it to Wang.

"All the ingredients are shredded. Fungus, lean meat, tofu, green leafy vegetables and green onions, stir-fry with dogwood, add water to boil, add vinegar, salt, drizzle with egg wash, and sprinkle a little green onion, and it's OK. ”

The dogwood was stir-fried with a unique pungent taste, and Wang stood at the kitchen door and sneezed several times in a row, "Can this be delicious?" ”

"It's delicious." It's a pity that there is no starch, no fans.

The fans are not in a hurry, the starch has to be made first.

Lin Banxia suppressed the fire and put out a bowl of soup: "Mother, you taste it." ”

Wang took a spoonful of spoon, blew it, smelled it, and then put it in his mouth, tasted it, and nodded: "The taste is quite special." ”

Another spoonful, "Yes, if it's cold, let's have a bowl of hot and appetizing." ”

Lin Banxia also drank a few sips by himself, although the taste was not satisfactory, but it was like this without chili peppers.

The meat buns at the corner of the street were bought, and one person had a bowl of hot and sour soup, and the four of them were sweating until they ate it.

In the afternoon, Lin Banxia's custom-made tweezers were delivered, and there was also a basket of charcoal.

A layer of charcoal was laid under the tweezers, and the tweezers quickly heated up.

Lin Banxia first used a piece of pigskin to evenly smear it on the tweezers, and boiled the tweezers according to the shape of his memory.

The smell of meat soon wafted up, and Xiao Shi and Xiao Angelica were all gathered around, and they couldn't help but smell the fragrance vigorously.

The pan is boiling, and the batter is ready.

Two parts of white flour and one part of bean flour, the color of the batter is golden, put a spoonful on the pan, slowly turn the pan with the left hand, and use a bamboo dragonfly with the right hand to spread the batter evenly.

This process, Lin Banxia has seen it I don't know how many times in the previous life, and the aunts and uncles who spread the pancakes made it smoothly, but when she did it herself, it was simply miserable.

The dough was formed on the pan and spread out to reveal a large hole, and the white steam continued to rise, and the batter was heated unevenly, and soon the smell of burnt paste came.

"I'll try." Wang took the bamboo dragonfly in Lin Banxia's hand, changed the batter again, and found the trick after a few clicks, and soon a dough cake was formed.

"Mother, you're still amazing." Lin Banxia praised, "Quick, beat an egg, and spread it evenly." Smear our secret sauce, sprinkle with sesame seeds, chopped green onions, vegetables, and you're ready to stack them. ”

Stacking pancakes and fruits, Lin Banxia is still very good at it. After folding, take the shovel and divide it directly into four parts, one for each person.

Then remove the charcoal fire under the tweezer.

Wang took a big bite and nodded: "Can this be delicious?" There is also an egg, and sesame seeds, and sugar in the sauce, and vinegar, which is sweet and sour. ”

Xiao Shi and Xiao Angelica ate in large gulps, and said inarticulately: "It's delicious, it's as delicious as meat buns." Mother, sister, can we eat every day in the future? ”

Lin Banxia took a bite and nodded: "Mother, our family will eat a few more meals in the past few days, and you can also practice your hands, this bread can be thinner."

When the time comes, the stall will be set up at the door, and the aroma will waft up, which will definitely be attractive. ”

"But what about the price? The meat buns at the street entrance are only one penny, and the vegetable buns are two pennies a penny. "Wang is a little worried about pricing.

"Let's use smaller eggs, two cents for three, counting the rest, the cost is only two or three cents, let's sell five cents a piece."

"It's so expensive, does anyone buy it?" Wang asked.

"Our family is unique." Lin Banxia Road.

Exclusive is the selling point, five cents, one person is enough to eat, not expensive.

Wang pondered and nodded.

Now that's all that's left for the vegetable oil.

Wang's father Lin also returned here, and the family sat together, surrounded by tweezers, a bowl of hot and sour soup per person, and a pancake fruit without fruit.

Wang's spread out the pancakes more easily. The sauce was also improved, and some wine left over from the shop was added to remove some of the original fishy smell of the beans.

Lin Banxia asked about the custom-made machine for pressing vegetable oil, and was very happy to know that the first sample could be made in a few days.

However, the sugar factory in the village is almost ready, and we have to go back and see it.

With this small shop, Lin Banxia is not so concerned about the sugar factory.

The sugar mill is making money, but that's not her own.

Although she signed a contract, if Xia Changyan really didn't want to give her the profits, would she dare to rob the prince?

But this shop is different, it completely belongs to her and belongs to this family.

Although Dad didn't say anything, the eyes in his eyes were different when he looked at the shop.

My mother spent the afternoon practicing how to spread pancakes faster and better, and pondering the taste of the sauce.

Even the little stones have been cleaning up the house.

At night, Lin Banxia still slept in the same bed with little angelica.

This bed is not as soft as the bed in the palace, and the house is not furnished like the palace, but this is my home.

It's liberty to live here.

It's just that after the busy day, I don't know why my heart is a little cold.

Lin Banxia didn't inquire about Qu Yuanli again, as if Qu Yuanli had nothing to do with her.

She didn't suffer a loss.

Qu Yuan plow, a thing that benefits the country and the people, is destined to only bring her vanity in fame.

And she is already a countryman, and she can't afford to be famous.

It is worth exchanging the Quyuan plough for the real protection and freedom of His Royal Highness.

The family returned to the village the next day, and Lin Banxia inquired about the progress of the sugar factory as usual, and also re-recorded the accounts of the sunset.

The construction of the sugar factory is almost complete, and the machines for pressing the sugar juice, quicklime, and activated charcoal are also ready.

The purchased straw is neatly arranged in the shed in bundles.

The auspicious day for the start of construction has been calculated.

A shed was built in his backyard, and soybeans and sorghum belonging to Lin Banxia's food were piled up.

Zhao Chengfu took the account book and waited for Lin Banxia to settle the account, and then he would leave the village and go to the palace to do a pen.

"Lin Xiangjun, according to your instructions, the people who work in the oil factory have also been selected, and each family can only produce one laborer.

They were all signed and pledged on confidential documents. In addition, your uncle has been looking for me a few times in the past few days, and he also has to go to work in the oil factory. ”

Zhao Chengfu was annoyed, but he didn't dare to say that it was Lin Banxia's instructions.

"Your grandmother has also come to me and cried several times, Lin Xiangjun, look ......"
