The medicinal herbs needed for medicinal hot pot are not difficult to buy.
It's just some common Chinese medicine.
In this way, the cost of hot pot will also be reduced a lot.
If you get some precious Chinese medicinal materials, the price of hot pot will probably be sky-high at that time, and it is beyond the scope of eating.
Xu Mu's idea was that after he improved the medicinal hot pot, the price would definitely be much higher than the price of ordinary hot pot, and it would naturally be profitable to open the door to do business. But the price must not be so high that it is difficult for the average person to accept.
The materials needed for the medicinal diet were quickly bought by Xu Mu.
But the medicinal materials for alchemy are not easy to buy.
After the alchemy skill point reached level 1, Pei Yuan Dan's Dan recipe was memorized in Xu Mu's mind, and Xu Mu knew the efficacy attributes of each dose of medicinal materials in the pill recipe clearly and knew how to refine it. But whether these medicinal materials can be bought, Xu Mu doesn't know.
A total of 32 kinds of medicinal materials are required to refine Pei Yuan Dan, some of which are relatively common Chinese medicines, such as licorice, angelica, astragalus, red peony, etc., which are cheap.
But there are also some medicinal materials that are very expensive, such as cordyceps, deer antler, ginseng, bezoar, etc., all of which are precious medicinal materials. Moreover, in the Danfang, there are still high requirements for these precious Chinese medicines, such as ginseng, which must be wild ginseng, and artificially cultivated is not good, and it must have a certain year.
Xu Mu asked the price at the pharmacy, generally speaking, as long as the wild ginseng is more than 30 years old, the price is calculated in 100,000 yuan. As for the legendary wild ginseng for hundreds of years, it all appeared at auction and was counted in millions!
Thinking of this, Xu Mu felt a little painful.
After a rough estimate, even if it is the minimum budget, refining Pei Yuan Dan once will cost at least about 100,000!
Pei Yuan Dan can refine five at a time, even if it is good, it is enough to cultivate five times!
In other words, if Xu Mu wants to complete the foundation building in 100 days, he has to refine the Dan twenty times, and he needs about two million soft sister coins!
After running three Chinese medicine stores, Xu Mu finally bought a pair of medicinal materials for refining Pei Yuan Dan. Then he looked at the few deposits left in the bank card, and couldn't help but sigh: "No wonder it is said that money can make ghosts grind, even cultivating immortals can't do without money!"
If you don't have money, you can't afford to cultivate immortals!
The money that was hard to make by opening a hot pot restaurant for most of the year was almost spent at one time.
"We must reform the hot pot restaurant immediately, and it is urgent to increase income!"
"Need money, need money!"
"Well, this time I can't be pitted by Zhou Miaomiao, it's time to redivide the shares......"

After buying medicinal herbs, Xu Mu went to the mall to sell casseroles for cooking medicine, and finally went to the vegetable market to sell pigeons, crucian carp and other necessary ingredients.
When everything was done, it was already half past eight in the evening when Xu Mu returned to the university town. Xu Mu directly asked the rental master to stop outside the Four Seasons hot pot restaurant.
At this time, there was still half an hour before the hot pot restaurant should be closed, but there was not even a table of customers in the restaurant, Xu Mu saw this and simply asked the employees to go home half an hour early.
Employees are naturally happy to hear this, regardless of whether there is a business or not, it is good for them to leave work early. What's more, there is no business in the store now, and staying in the store is also boring to play with mobile phones.
So after saying thank you to the boss, they left one after another.
After everyone left, Xu Mu closed the door of the store, and then went to the kitchen alone with a large bag and a small bag, preparing to get out several medicinal diet formulas even if he stayed up all night tonight.
Refining Pei Yuan Dan is not an easy task, even if there are medicinal materials, but the tools for alchemy, his current weak cultivation, are all problems. Therefore, it is better to get the recipe of medicinal hot pot out first to solve the urgent need of lack of money.
Boiling hot pot base, Xu Mu learned it when he first opened a hot pot restaurant, and he is familiar with it.
The first is to boil the dashi.
It turns out that there are two kinds of base soup in the Four Seasons hot pot restaurant, one is chicken soup and the other is bone broth. Chicken soup is not easy to get hot after eating, and big bone broth is rich in flavor and high in nutritional value.
These two bases are good, and Xu Mu is ready to continue using them.
However, on the basis of these two, I am also ready to add a little new tricks.
They are pigeon soup and crucian carp soup.
These two soups themselves have great benefits for women and have the effect of nourishing yin and beautifying. Combined with Xu Mu's medicinal diet, the effect is even better.
At least, after eating hot pot, the effect is much better than eating those health products and applying facial masks!
The kitchen was filled with all kinds of strong aromas, and the milky white soup was tumbling in the country, so Xu Mucai turned off the heat, covered the pot, and simmered over low heat. After that, with free hands, put the medicinal materials bought in advance, such as astragalus, angelica, wolfberry, jujube, licorice, etc., into a casserole according to a certain proportion, and start boiling the medicinal liquid.
Compared to alchemy, boiling medicinal food is too simple, and it only takes half an hour for the medicinal liquid to be formed, which is much less than the time it takes to boil the broth.
Finally, it's the stir-frying, the oil pot, the bean paste, Sichuan pepper, ginger, garlic and so on.
The ingredients are stir-fried and fragrant, and finally combined with the liquid medicine and added to the original soup, and the hot pot base of the medicinal hot pot is completed.
"It worked. ”
Xu Mu looked at the four different medicinal hot pot bases in front of him, and the four completely different but charming fragrances were mixed together, which could hook out the roundworms in the human stomach, and even if he was not hungry, his saliva secretion would intensify and his saliva would water.
Just smelling the taste, it has far surpassed the Shuxiangyuan next door, and it has also surpassed any hot pot that Xu Mu has eaten!
As for eating, even with Xu Mu's aesthetics after getting the system, he has to say 'perfect' after tasting it.
As a result, Xu Mu has more confidence in the business of the hot pot restaurant.
"The next question is what price should be set for the new medicinal hot pot...... Xu Mu pondered in his heart.
The price must not be low, at least much higher than the price of hot pot on the market now.
First, it is not easy to boil these hot pot bases, and Xu Mu needs to boil them by himself, and the expensive fees should have been; second, Xu Mu is short of money now, and I am afraid that he will be short of money for a long time in the future, and the main purpose of opening a hot pot restaurant is also to make money, so naturally he can't be soft.
At this time, the sky is already bright, and the commercial street is gradually recovering and lively.
The staff of the hot pot restaurant also arrived one after another, ready to start business.
"Hey, what's so fragrant? This smell...... It's completely different from the hot pot in our shop. ”
"yes, it smells so good! Just smelling it, I can't help but croak. ”
The first few table attendants who came to the store couldn't help but sniff their noses vigorously after entering the store, and said curiously.
Xu Mu walked out of the kitchen and said with a smile: "I won't go to work for the time being today, I'll give you a day off, let's go back." ”
"Huh?" Several waiters looked at each other, but they didn't react, and they all said nervously: "Boss, are we preparing to close our store?"
Xu Mu smiled dumbly when he heard this, and said, "Why are you preparing to close the door." It's preparing to 'reopen' and snatch the business that Shu Xiangyuan has robbed!"
Since the medicinal hot pot has been made, it is natural that the new taste cannot be served silently, so it is natural to stop for a day and plan well, and strive to become an instant hit.
Moreover, he also has to have a good talk with Zhou Miaomiao about the re-splitting of shares.
"Looks like I'm getting ready to find a new job. ”
Although the employees have more holidays for no reason, they are not too happy, and they are all muttering worriedly.
Recently, they are very clear about the business of the hot pot restaurant, under the suppression of Shu Xiangyuan, it is already surviving, even if it is reluctant to continue to persevere, it is meaningless. Xu Mu's decisive decision to close the door was expected.
Xu Mu didn't plan to explain more to the employees, he just wanted them to see the results tomorrow, anyway, if he told them that they didn't believe it now, then let the facts speak louder than words.
But looking at them like this, Xu Mu didn't wait for tomorrow, waved his hand and said, "Forget it, don't take a holiday yet, you haven't had breakfast yet, right?" I made several new hot pot bases overnight last night, and now you go to the kitchen to clean up and prepare the dishes. After eating, you will know why I said that I could snatch Shu Xiangyuan's business!"
instructed the clerk to start working, and Xu Mu dialed Zhou Miaomiao's phone.
The phone rang for half a minute before it was answered.
As soon as the phone was answered, Zhou Miaomiao's slightly manic voice came from the other end: "Xu Mu, you'd better find me something important, otherwise I won't be able to spare you, and I dare to disturb my sleep!"
The anchor industry is similar to that of online writers, they often stay up late and sleep late every night, so Zhou Miaomiao is often lazy in the morning, and she still has the gas to get up when she gets up.
Xu Mu didn't panic and said, "I have something important to discuss with you, where are you now?"
"What about the school dormitory, what's the matter?" Zhou Miaomiao's voice still sounded confused.
"That's what I said yesterday, improve the taste of our hot pot restaurant, and study medicinal hot pot. Xu Mu said with a smile: "After my hard work all night, now it has finally come to fruition, you can come to the store to taste it now." By the way, let's discuss how to redistribute the shares......"
"What are you kidding?" Zhou Miaomiao didn't believe it at all, and was ready to continue sleeping.
"I'm serious. Xu Mu said.
"......" Zhou Miaomiao's side fell silent, as if she had fallen asleep.
"Hey, do you hear me? Wake up, wash your face and rinse your mouth, and then come to the store. Xu Mu can roughly guess what Zhou Miaomiao's state is now, it is estimated that she is half-asleep and half-awake, at this time, she must keep urging her, otherwise she will fall asleep again.
Finally, under Xu Mu's harassment, Zhou Miaomiao couldn't help but scream, got up in anger and got up, and said angrily:
"Xu Mu, if I find out that you are playing with me, you will die! Why, you still want to invest in technology? I think you're really sick!"
