Chapter 44: Stir-fried kidney flowers
Gu Rao saw her vacillation, and Chen Sheng pursued, "We are seeing that you are our first guest today, and we want to get off to a good start, so we gave you such a reasonable price, if you miss this village, there will be no such shop, and the guests after you will not be so cheap." ”
"If you buy more, I can give you a cheaper price."
The eldest lady was completely moved this time.
"I'll take a look first."
"I didn't bring much money with me when I went out today, it's too expensive for me to be afraid I can't afford it."
Gu Rao took out all the pheasants and hares in the back basket and put them on the ground for the eldest lady to choose, and she also helped her choose a fatter pheasant and a fatter hare.
"The eldest lady should have grandchildren at home, right? Buying a larger one is enough for so many people in the family to eat, and moreover, the larger one has more meat, which is cost-effective. ”
"I'm good looking at two."
The eldest lady thought of her grandson who was hungry for meat at home, her heart softened, and she gritted her teeth and said ruthlessly, "Just weigh these two for me." ”
Beye took the pheasants and hares that had been selected and weighed them.
"The pheasant is two catties and six taels, and the hare is five catties and one tael."
Gu Rao immediately quoted the price.
"The pheasant will give you eighteen wen a catty, and two catties and six taels are forty-six wen. The hare will give you four cents a catty, and five catties and a tael is twenty cents. ”
There is no decimal point in the calculation method of this era, and there is no rounding, so Gu Rao directly erased the number after the decimal point.
"Sixty-six dollars in total."
"If you buy the two of them together, I'll only charge you sixty-five dollars."
After Gu Rao calculated it, she was also shocked by this price, she didn't expect it to be so cheap, she knew that she wouldn't reduce the price just now, and it was a big deal to open slowly.
The eldest lady cheekily asked, "Can you wipe me the change of the five cents?" ”
Gu Rao said with a smile, "The price given to you just now, after calculating it, the pheasant gave you a total of five cents cheaper, and the hare also gave you five cents cheaper, and the two of them added up, and then gave you a penny cheaper, a total of eleven cents cheaper for you, this price has not been earned, but it has been pasted upside down, and it can't be less." ”
With a small business, let me wipe the six cents as a small change, and I really dare to think that if it weren't for the good quality and the fact that she didn't want to conflict with the guests, she would have driven people away a long time ago.
Of course, the eldest lady knows that it is much cheaper, otherwise she would not be so generous to buy two at a time.
But don't you want to get off to a good start?
It should be okay to give her a little cheaper, right?
"I didn't bring so much money with me today......"
Gu Rao kept smiling.
"May I ask how many you brought?"
The eldest lady's expression was a little unnatural.
"I just brought sixty wen."
Gu Rao sighed and said with a smile, "It's simple, I'll change you to a smaller pheasant or hare, can you change it to a pheasant or a hare?" ”
Auntie, "......"
It can be seen that she is determined that she can't give her less.
"I can't help it."
"Forget it, sixty-five is sixty-five, originally the five pennies were to be kept for his grandson to buy sugar gourds, but I can't buy it this time, and he will cry with me again when I go back."
When she said this, Yu Guang looked at the proprietress, and she still didn't plan to give up in her heart, what if the proprietress relented and bought sugar gourds for her grandson for five cents?
Women are soft on their children.
Gu Rao could hear that the eldest lady was hinting at her, so she rolled her eyes in her heart, but she pretended not to understand, and directly tied the two prey together with a straw rope and handed them over.
"Sixty-five taels, thanks for the review."
Auntie, "......"
In the end, he took off his shoes, took out the copper plate hidden under the socks and counted thirty wen, and then took out a cloth bag around his waist and counted thirty-five wen from it.
"Give."
Gu Rao, "......"
Why hide your money under your feet?
Bei Ye saw Gu Rao's disgust, and took the initiative to take the money contaminated with the sour smell of athlete's foot from the eldest mother's hand.
The eldest lady left with pheasants and hares.
Beiye returned to the yard, cleaned the copper plate, put it in the money bag, and said to Gu Rao, "Many people hide money like this, just get used to it, I'll do it next time I collect money." ”
Gu Rao, "......"
Suddenly I don't like money so much.
A middle-aged man walked up and asked, "Are you selling wild boar?" How much is a pound? ”
Beye replied, "Thirty-eight dollars a catty." ”
The middle-aged man didn't hesitate, and said directly, "Then give me a catty, cut me a little fat, go back and let my daughter-in-law boil out the oil, and keep it for stir-fry later." ”
Beiye weighed it, cut it with a knife, cut off a piece of meat, and weighed it with a scale, just over a catty.
A hole was made in the meat with a knife, and then the hemp rope was threaded into it and tied into a loop.
The middle-aged man gave thirty-eight cents, carried a straw rope and took a pound of meat and gradually walked away.
After a while, another guest came.
……
At noon, there was still some meat left to sell, Beiye continued to stay outside to sell meat, and Gu Rao went into the house to make lunch.
She took out the fresh loincloth, washed it with water, cut the loinflower into two pieces, removed the loincloth, washed it, cut the cross pattern diagonally with a knife on the smooth side, and then cut it into small pieces;
Wash and slice the green and red peppers;
Put the garlic slices, minced ginger, soy sauce, salt, cooking wine, monosodium glutamate, Sichuan peppercorns, and starch in a small bowl to make a juice.
Blanch the kidney flowers in a pot, drain the water, then heat the pan with less oil, pour in the blanched kidney flowers, stir-fry quickly, and remove the oil after changing color;
Leave a little oil in the pot, fry the spice juice, pour in the green and red peppers, continue to stir-fry, and finally pour in the kidney flowers, fry quickly on high heat until cooked and put on a plate.
A hot stir-fried kidney flower is good.
The next thing to make is a dish of pork belly shredded with red pepper.
Wash the pork belly and cook it in a pot to cool, cut the boiled pork belly into shreds and put it in a bowl, add shredded red pepper, add minced green onion and ginger, salt, light soy sauce, drizzle with chili oil, drop in a little sesame oil, add chopped green onion and stir.
At the end, a sauerkraut soup was burned.
At this time, the rice in the side pot was also cooked, Gu Rao brought the dishes to the table, put two bowls of rice on the table, served them to the table, and after setting the dishes and chopsticks, he let Beiye come in to eat.
At this time when she was cooking, Beye sold more than a dozen catties of pork.
Still, there is a lot left on the stalls.
After Gu Rao came in, he put some of the two dishes on the rice, and then said to Gu Rao, "I'll eat outside, and I'll have guests later." ”
While he was talking, there were really guests outside.
Beno went out with a rice bowl.
The man who came was a young and strong man.
Besino's asked, "What do you want to buy?" ”
The man originally came to buy a little piglet, but after smelling the aroma of the food, he suddenly forgot the original purpose of his coming, and looked at the vegetables in the rice bowl with his eyes.
"What's fried, it's so fragrant!"
I couldn't help but swallow a few times of saliva.
Besino's knot knows.
"My wife fried it, and I don't know."
However, it does smell good.
The man urged, "You eat first, don't worry about me." ”
Don't be wild, "......"
"Then you can see for yourself first, and tell me when you see what you want to buy."
The man nodded.
Beiye sat on the chair to eat, he first ate the fried kidney flower, and the moment he entered the mouth, he was conquered by the spicy and fresh fragrance of the fried kidney flower.
