"You pat me another bowl, I'll taste it!" Old man Lu pushed out the bowl in front of him and glared at her angrily.

Su Liuye smiled, knowing that the old man had lived alone for too long, and he had never thought of passing on the secret recipe of pickles, and he was probably arrogant that no one could learn his craft, and now he was unwilling to be conquered by her bowl of noodles.

Now I guess I want to test her.

"Okay!" Su Liuye responded and went to the kitchen to prepare a new bowl.

Old man Lu finished eating in one bite, his expression was still solemn, he glanced at Su Liuye back and forth a few times, and suddenly, he got up and walked to the backyard.

Looking at his attitude, Qin Lian couldn't help but worry, "Ah Liu, what does Grandpa Lu mean by this?" If he doesn't agree to help us, you won't be able to sell your snail noodles, right? ”

She has always believed in Su Liuye's decision, not to mention, she also thinks that snail noodles are delicious, there is no such thing in the capital, if they can become the first, they will definitely be able to make a name for themselves in the capital.

But without Old Man Lu's help, they probably wouldn't be able to do it.

"It's okay, I believe in Old Man Lu's decision."

Su Liuye was full of confidence.

After waiting for a while, Old Man Lu came over with a yellowed and wrinkled notebook, "Here are some of the secrets of pickles that I have recorded." ”

Hearing this, Qin Lian looked shocked.

She and Shi Feng have been like each other for a long time, and they know that some of them will record their own good dishes and make them into their own products. These books are very important to a cook, and they are not easily handed over to others.

Old Man Lu is taking it out now, is it because he believes in them?

"I can teach you how to make sour bamboo shoots, but you have to promise me that you have to sell this bowl of noodles in the town, and you also have to sell fame and titles!"

Old Man Lu accentuated his tone.

Su Liuye was stunned for a moment, and faintly felt that this matter was of great significance to the old man.

She smiled, "Grandpa Lu, don't worry, I am confident in my craft." You have also eaten snail noodles, I believe you should know that this bowl of noodles has never appeared in the capital, as long as you like this bowl of noodles, you will definitely like it after tasting it. ”

"Okay, I trust you." The old man snorted, "There is only the last can of sour bamboo shoots left in my yard, and the new ones will not be pickled until spring." ”

"There's only one can left?"

Su Liuye pondered, "Then I'll prepare some ingredients first and see if the people in the city like it." ”

Just do it, Su Liuye and Qin Lian began to prepare the ingredients in the afternoon, and in the middle, Zhou Bo also came over to take a look at them, and the female guard Xiao Wu was helping.

Su Liuye and the others were busy in the kitchen until midnight before resting, and opened the door of the store early the next day to prepare to sell snail noodles.

In order to avoid being recognized by Zhou Yun'er's maidservant, Su Liuye was busy in the kitchen the whole time, and handed it over to Qin Lian and Xiao Wu outside.

Old man Lu was already quite famous on this street, many people knew that he used to be the imperial chef in the palace, and thought that he would open the door to do business after buying this restaurant, so that the people could also taste the craftsmanship of the imperial chef, who knew that the old man Lu was tossing his jars in the courtyard all day long, making the surroundings sour.

The neighbors nearby came to ask for an explanation, he was more fierce than others, and he used to be the imperial chef, no one dared to say more, but he was holding his stomach in his heart.

I didn't expect to wake up today, but I could see Old Man Lu's shop open?

Hearing the news, many neighbors came to watch, and as soon as they got closer, they smelled a strange smell wafting from inside. Many people couldn't help but cover their noses when they smelled it, while others leaned over curiously.

Qin Lian was busy in the store, and when she saw a guest coming to the door, she immediately stepped forward to entertain her, "Do you want to come in and sit down?" ”

There were two young men who came over, and they looked at the store curiously, "What are you buying in the store?" Why is this smell so strange, we haven't smelled it anywhere else. ”

"Does this still smell?" The onlookers nearby covered their noses and retorted with disgust, "I think this is something broken, and I am reluctant to throw it away, so I want to take it out and sell it to deceive people!" ”

When the people next to him heard this, they all showed strange expressions, and some of them nodded in agreement and kept complaining, "What kind of smell is this?" It smells a lot like a broken egg in my house. ”

"Yes, yes, yes! That's the smell, I said, why does it smell so bad! What does this old man mean, he usually smells out of the yard, and now he is even more blatantly opening a shop! ”

"What are you talking about? There are people behind them, and it's useless for you to sue the yamen......"

"Does it stink? I think it tastes so good. Eh, big girl, what do you buy in the store? ”

Another uncle stepped forward to ask.

Qin Lian didn't get angry because of the comments outside, and warmly invited the guests outside to come in, "Our store is newly opened, and now we only sell one kind of noodles, called snail noodles." If you like it, I'll serve you a bowl, right? We opened today for a reward, one bowl of noodles costs 20 yuan, and the second bowl is free. ”

"Second night free?"

When everyone heard this, they were immediately interested.

A bowl of noodles for 20 yuan is also a small price in the capital, but if the second bowl is free, that is, 10 yuan a bowl, this price is still quite favorable.

There happened to be a companion in the store, so I immediately ordered two bowls.

"Okay, please wait!"

Seeing that there were guests, Qin Lian immediately went to arrange, and soon brought two bowls of noodles from the kitchen, with sour bamboo shoots and peanuts on them, and Su Liuye also deliberately made ingredients such as yuba, and filled a bowl with it, which looked very tempting.

"That's a lot!"

The guests who came in were originally in the mentality of tasting it, but after seeing this bowl of noodles, they immediately felt that it was worth it, and after tasting it, they were full of praise.

"Delicious! Shopkeeper, your noodles here are so delicious, I haven't eaten them anywhere else! ”

"yes, and there are so many ingredients, what are these things, this crunch is delicious!"

Hearing the praise of the guests, Qin Lian was also proud in her heart, and said with a smile, "The two guests are really embarrassed, this is the secret recipe in our store, and we can't tell the guests." If you two like it, you can come to our store tomorrow, but maybe you won't have it in a few days. ”

"None? Why is there no more? ”

The two of them hadn't tasted a few bites before they suddenly heard the news, and they were shocked, "Shopkeeper, haven't you just opened?" How is it so quickly gone. ”

"Because we don't have enough ingredients." Qin Lian said, "The two guest officers are also looking after the house, our noodles are full of ingredients, but many ingredients can't be found in winter, so we can only wait until the beginning of spring." ”
