Chapter 295 Going to the Oil Shop

Qi Panpan smiled and brought him the roast duck. After weighing it on an iron scale, he said: "Four catties and one tael, that's four catties for you, two hundred and forty cents."

After the servants of the Shang family took the roast duck, they looked at the braised food placed in the big pottery basin and swallowed their saliva. They pointed at the braised food and said, "Two kilograms of braised mutton, braised fish cubes, braised dried beans, and fried tofu." .”

 “Hey, I’ll weigh you here.”

"You are from the Gu family's aunt's family, right? Is this a new food that the Gu family has come up with? It smells so fragrant. Give me two pounds of this dish." The man pointed at the braised oil tofu in the vegetarian stew.

 “Hey, I’ll get it for you right away.”

“I heard that the Gujia Tofu stall has a new dish. These are the dishes. It smells so good. Come on, come on, give me a piece of meat, six eggs and a pound of this kind of yellow tofu.”

"This is called braised tofu. It needs to be deep-fried, which costs a lot of oil and costs fifteen cents per catty." The customer next to him explained to him.

But the customer didn't mind: "After buying the white tofu, you have to add seasonings and cook it. Not only is it deep-fried, it has enough oil and water, but it can also be cut into plates and served directly, which saves trouble."

There are more and more guests, some come to see what’s new, and many want to buy something to try.

Qi Panpan and Gu Daya were so busy that they picked four baskets of vegetarian braised meat and roast duck, and almost sold them in an hour.

Mrs. Chen looked at the side and almost turned to vinegar. She couldn't help but said: "Sister eldest sister, your business is really good. She is indeed my aunt. Xiaoyu girl wants to make a living better than our tofu and bean cakes." good."

Gu Dagui glared at Mrs. Chen and cursed: "Shut up, why are you talking?"

He quickly apologized to Gu Daya again: "Sister Daya, please ignore her. This woman is so virtuous that she can't speak."

Gu Daya smiled at Gu Dagui, but she could no longer tolerate Chen, and replied: "Brothers and sisters, Dagui, don't be envious. Xiaoyu girl is also very good to you, an aunt of the same race. This is another stall, and another If you open a shop or run a workshop, and let your boss's wife and the shopkeeper's wife take care of it, your family's life will be much more prosperous than mine."

Mr. Chen choked, Gu Daya was saying that she was just an aunt of the same race, but she took advantage of the Gu Jinli family a lot, while her biological aunt just got a new job.

Mr. Chen knew she was in the wrong, and after seeing Gu Daya's mouth, she knew it was a powerful person, so she didn't dare to talk back, and she honestly fried tofu and bean dregs cakes for the guests.

Mr. and Mrs. Yan came to the stall with Mr. and Mrs. Chen. When he saw that Mr. Chen was deflated, Mr. Yan shook his head helplessly. The elder brother and sister cared more about eating than beating. They only came to their senses every time they were beaten.

"The Gu family, I heard that they have new food. Hurry up and give me two kilograms of each!" Chef Li from Fugui Building finished his lunch meal and immediately rushed over to buy the Gu family's new food. Unfortunately, he was late. .

“That’s all that’s left.” Qi Panpan smiled, pointing to a dozen braised eggs, a few pieces of braised dried beans, a dozen braised fish pieces, and two pieces of braised mutton in the pottery pot.

Chef Li was very embarrassed. He smelled the fragrance of the braised vegetables and immediately said: "Wrap all these for me. I'll give you as much money as you want."

"Hey, I'll give it to you." Qi Pandai quickly packed the remaining stewed vegetables for Chef Li. After weighing and calculating the money, he reported the bill to him: "A total of four hundred and eighty yuan." The plate was quickly handed over to Chef Li, who quickly said, "Don't give it to him yet. He is from Fugui Building. If he buys our things, he has to register with his fingerprints."

Hearing this, Gu Daya quickly stopped Qi Pan, took out a booklet, handed it to Chef Li, and said with a smile: "You are from Fugui Building, so please take your fingerprints here."

Xiaoyu said that their family has a grudge against the Zou family. The Fugui Building in the town is the property of the Zou family. When Fugui Building comes to buy their things, they have to put their fingerprints on them, so as to prevent the Zou family from poisoning them after buying something, and the bad guys will kill them. compensation.

Chef Li has long been accustomed to being treated like this by Gu's tofu stall. He quickly pressed his fingerprints and gave him money. After taking the things, he couldn't wait to eat them. He took a few bites of each item: "It's delicious. It's rich. Let's make it." The food and wine are excellent.”

Especially the marinated fish pieces, I didn’t expect fish to be so delicious. The dry-fried fish is very chewy, and coupled with the aroma of the marinated fish, it is very fragrant.

Chef Li was very satisfied with his meal, and he could tell that the spices used in this braised dish were much more than seasoning spices... I wonder if he can make it?

"I heard that there is also a red, very festive duck called roast duck. Will you still have a stall tomorrow? We have reserved ten at Fugui Building." Chef Li has become the shopkeeper. Now he can buy whatever ingredients he wants. OK, no need to look at Shopkeeper Zeng’s face anymore.

Gu Daya shook his head: "No, roast duck is only sold to ordinary people's homes now, not to restaurants."

Xiaoyu said that the purpose of trial sales is to build a reputation. It must be sold to more people so that more people can eat braised food and roast duck. Only in this way can the name of braised food and roast duck be spread.

They also specifically explained that roast duck is their signature. Before everyone knows that this is Gu's roast duck, they cannot sell the roast duck to Fugui Lou, lest others misunderstand that the roast duck is made by Fugui Lou, and they will suffer a big loss.

Chef Li felt very sorry after hearing this. He begged Gu Daya and Qi Panpan for a while, but when they didn't let go, he gave up and took the stewed vegetables back to Fugui Building.

 After Qi Panpan and Gu Daya sold out the braised vegetables and roast duck, they helped Chen and others. After selling out all the tofu, spices and bean dregs cakes, they closed the stall and went home together.

 Gu Daya and his wife went directly to Gu Jinli's house and counted the money together. After learning that they had made one to two to five hundred yuan today, they were really surprised: "It's actually such a huge net profit."

There are three to two to four hundred cents on the table. After deducting the cost, there is still one or two and a half cents. If divided into 50 and 50 cents, her family can also get 750 cents.

“Xiaoyu, thank you, this business is really profitable.” Gu Daya was so happy that her eyes were red.

Gu Jinli smiled and said: "Thank you, you are my aunt. Besides, my family also has a share in this business. The money your family makes is for my family, it's the same."

"Xiaoyu is right, we are all a family. Don't drop the golden beans. Go home and make braised meat and roast duck, otherwise you won't be able to sell them tomorrow." Third Grandma urged, and after dividing the money, she took Gu Daya's family to Rush home.

 In the following days, Gu Daya’s family was busy making braised meat and roast duck.

They get up before dawn to make braised meat, and make it before Chen time. They follow Chen and others out of the stall, and come back after selling out. They kill the duck in the afternoon, dry the duck, and start roasting it in the evening. After roasting, the fire is stopped, and the next day When the kiln was opened, the duck was still warm.

People in the town, including some wealthy families in the countryside, like braised meat and roast duck very much. Gu Daya’s family can’t sell it no matter how much they make.

Life for Gu Jinli and his family was booming, and in mid-April, the Jiang family sent nursing home Jiang Puzi to deliver a message to Gu Jinli's family, saying that the soybean oil workshop was about to open, and asked her to go and have a look. Is there anything that needs to be improved on wooden oil presses and soybean oil?
