Volume 2 Chapter 9 A Century-old Famous Restaurant of Huaiyang Cuisine
After the summer harvest, it is the busiest time in the countryside, when the harvested wheat has to be threshed and threshed, and the fields are busy turning the ground, irrigating and moistening the fields, and preparing for summer planting.
In this era, farming is no longer the only business of farmers, people are so strange, my father wants to sharpen his head to the countryside despite the opposition of his mother, but the young people in the village are trying to go out.
However, the homestead and fields divided by the village must not be sold, otherwise they will be chased from the head of the village to the end of the village by the old people of the village with hoes.
Only Master Sun is an exception, according to what was said before, Master Sun, who became famous in one fell swoop at the banquet of 1,000 people and earned enough honor for Lanqing Village, transferred the area of the homestead and the field under his name to Zhou's father, with a total of 50 acres of land and the right to contract and manage a whole mountain.
When this matter came into the hands of Zhang Dehou, the 'soil emperor', he naturally had great flexibility, so the field became two hundred acres, and the mountain could also be selected by Zhou's father, anyway, as long as it was from Lanqing Village, you could have the one you wanted!
200 acres of land plus a mountain for 20 years of contract management rights only cost 500,000 yuan, cheap!
As for the fields, he originally just hoped to get a few acres of random grain and vegetables, enough for his old two to eat, but he was forced by Zhou Zhou to buy two hundred acres of fertile land.
My son is right, there are many people in the city who run farms in the countryside, as long as they ensure organic planting and insist on using good seeds, they don't have to worry about sales.
As for manpower, it was entirely possible to hire labor in the nearby villages, so that the idealistic peach blossom paradise would become a cause that would give him a second spring, and the old wife would have no reason to stop him.
As a result, as Zhou Zhou guessed, hearing that Zhou Yujun was going to build a green manor in Lanqing Village, Li Yufen agreed after a slight hesitation.
After all, the husband is only fifty years old, so he can't just become an idle old man on the street, right? And this green manor still has a lot of promises, it should be able to make money, do you still have to worry about the marriage of your son if you have money?
Dad's matter was done, and Zhou Zhou's timely proposal to contract the X164 dining car was quickly supported by his parents; Zhou Yujun didn't have to say anything, he had long been on the same front as his son.
Li Yufen only learned that her son was no longer what he used to be after receiving calls from Su Rou and Cao Desheng respectively, not only with an annual salary of one million, but also with two special first-class chefs as helpers... What more bike do you need for this? Since his son has such a strong strength, isn't he just playing as much as he wants?
"Son, working for someone is not a long-term solution, my mother supports you!
Do a good job, let's be our own boss in the future, and you don't have to do any tasting expert, how hard it is......"
"Don't worry, Mom, I know it.
In fact, I joined the high-end tasting group of 'Three Meals a Day' not entirely for money, but mainly to broaden my horizons and learn more about some excellent chefs and excellent dishes in China......"
Putting away his mobile phone, Zhou Zhou looked at the golden wheat field in front of him.
In this field, located in the mountain plain, the combine harvester is rumbling, and large fields of wheat are cut down layer by layer, neatly and uniformly.
In the terraced fields on the hillside, it was crowded with people from all over the house to harvest, the men with their dark chests, while cutting wheat and singing not very clean male songs, while the eldest girls and little daughters-in-law rolled up their trouser legs, showing their slender and white calves, and flew a piece of watery eyes to the men of their own family and even other families......
In this joyful harvest season, everyone crossed the boundaries of gender, and even the most conservative little widow opened her heart without exception, allowing her silver bell-like smile to ripple in the air and gently cross the hearts of countless male animals......
To sing the praises of harvest is to sing the praises of life and life, and those who have not experienced this kind of scene will never be able to understand it.
"Two hundred acres of land is not a small amount, and when the crops are harvested, you can change to rice...... Son, don't you want to exhaust your dad and inherit my QQ letter again? ”
Zhou Yujun frowned and looked at the field in front of him, he really didn't want to make it so big, didn't his son let him become a fat man in one bite.
Zhou Zhou said with a smile: "Don't worry, Dad, I have asked Uncle Zhang to help find manpower, there is no shortage of strong laborers in the village, they usually grow their own grain and vegetables but may not be able to sell them at a good price, and they can't make a few dollars after a year of hard work."
We take the lead in making the green manor a large-scale operation, not to mention anything else, the railway section alone can eat your output of 200 acres.
In the future, we can continue to expand the scale of operation, drive the entire Lanqing Village and even several nearby villages to get rich together, now the real estate is in a recession, and the young people in the village no longer have to go to the construction site to work hard, which is a win-win situation. ”
"Master Xiao Zhou is right, Uncle Zhou, you want to create a peach blossom source in your heart, since it is a peach blossom source, how can you not have the book said 'there are good fields, beautiful ponds, mulberry and bamboo, strange traffic, chickens and dogs smell each other, which is planted back and forth... This? ”
Su Rou wore a lake-green skirt, her long hair fluttered in the air casually, she stood beside Zhou Zhou prettyly, turned her head and smiled sweetly at Zhou Yujun.
"Su's Group has been deeply involved in Chinese catering for many years, and has always attached great importance to organic grains and vegetables, Uncle Zhou, you don't have to worry about the problem of improved seeds, there will be a batch of 'greenhead rice' seeds will be sent to Lanqing Village in two days at the latest, and there are also some vegetable varieties suitable for this climate, which are guaranteed to be first-class.
Also, Chairman Cao left a message when he left, he has already helped contact the best ancient construction company in the magic capital, and when the time comes, Uncle Zhou, how do you want to renovate 'Wanglan Mountain', you can tell them the requirements, this ancient building is the top in the country, and it is the most suitable to create the peach blossom source in your mind......"
"Mr. Su, thank you so much, I have to invite you and Boss Cao to dinner if I have the chance."
Zhou Yujun looked at his son, and then looked at Su Rou who was standing beside his son, feeling like he was in a dream.
"Well, you young people should talk more... I went to find Brother Zhang for tea, and after lunch, I will go back to Pengcheng temporarily. ”
Watching his father gradually walk away, Zhou Zhou smiled at Su Rou: "Thank you, and Boss Cao." ”
"Don't thank you, this is a reward for your hard work."
Su Rou said with a smile: "The Huang family father and son have already contacted the external department of 'Three Meals a Day' and are ready to participate in the star selection of 'Three Meals a Day'.
And shortly after the application of Huangjia Baozi, the first floor of Bianliang also made an application......
To tell the truth, our 'Three Meals a Day' star rating agency has just been established, and it is not as influential as Michelin, and many good chefs and good restaurants are still waiting and seeing, and they also need to find a breakthrough.
Bianliang soup dumplings are very famous Chinese food, and their enthusiasm for participating in the evaluation is inseparable from your recommendation, 'Expert Zhou', I didn't expect you to enter the role so quickly. ”
Zhou Zhou was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "Mr. Su, you are thinking too much, the Huang family father and son came to me in the hope that I could help them compete for the name of Bianliang Authentic Soup Dumplings."
How can I participate in this kind of thing, so I recommend them to go to the 'three meals a day' to participate in the evaluation; it is impossible for a famous local delicacy such as Bianliang soup dumplings to have two companies in a city hang up the 'three meals a day' star card at the same time, so as not to solve the problem of disputes between the two families?
By the way, Mr. Su, I am now a member of the senior tasting group, do I want to participate in the selection of these two soup dumplings? ”
"We have integrated the location, environment, quality and influence of the two steamed bun shops, and will first do a two-star evaluation for them, so you don't need to go in person with 'Expert Zhou', you can go with Wu Lao and the junior tasting group."
Su Rou said with a smile: "But the day after tomorrow, we will make a star rating for a century-old brand, this is a famous restaurant that specializes in Huaiyang cuisine, and it needs at least two experts from the senior tasting group to participate."
So, I don't know if I can trouble Expert Zhou to take a trip? ”
Zhou Zhou smiled bitterly: "The hands of people are short, who asked me to collect your million annual salary, can I still say that I won't go?" ”
Su Roujiao smiled: "No. ”
