    After exercising, Jiang Ci went home and took a simple bath.

    At seven o'clock, Jiang Ci set off for the market to find fresh ingredients.

    These days, apart from being busy with the store, she would go to the agricultural product wholesale market in City A every morning.

    To make gourmet food, the preparation of ingredients is a very important part. Her soup dumplings can have such a taste. Apart from the addition of production techniques and exclusive recipes, the help of fresh ingredients is also quite large.

    If the raw material is broken from the beginning, then no matter how skillful Jiang Ci is, it may not be able to save it.

    In order to stabilize the production of Xiaolongbao, Jiang Ci signed a supply order with a supplier in the market after shopping for a few days.Every morning, suppliers deliver fresh ingredients to her store.

    Next, Jiang Ci only needs to check the situation of the suppliers from time to time, and at the same time understand the market, and look for the raw materials for the next dish.

    Jiang Ci was very pleasantly surprised that the market here was large and clean, and the variety of agricultural products dazzled her. In the past, she had to travel to different towns to come across ingredients, but now she can almost catch them all!

    After running the market, Jiang Ci will rush to Feng Qianguan to start her day's work.

    After a few days like this, one morning, Jiang Ci finalized the new dishes, signed a new order with the supplier, and then brought back the selected dried fish, shrimp roe, fresh shrimp, ribs and other ingredients to the store.

    In the back kitchen, Liang Hui has already started chopping stuffing.

    After Liang Hui got used to work, Jiang Ci gradually taught her some cooking work.When it is open at night, she helps with the cash register, and at other times, she can help with the assistants.

    Liang Hui readily agreed. She was used to the work. She used to work non-stop for twelve hours a day in the toy factory. Recently, she only worked five or six hours a day in Feng Qianguan. She was so unaccustomed to leisure time!

    Liang Hui saw the large and small bags Jiang Ci was carrying, and put down the knife: "Boss, what are you bringing here? Do you make new dishes in the shop?"

    "Well, new dishes." Jiang Ci put the things on the stage.

    When Liang Hui heard this, her heart immediately became agitated: New dishes!Soup dumplings are so delicious, what will the new dishes be like?

    Liang Hui: "What are you doing?"

    "Crab Roe Shrimp Wonton Noodles." Jiang Ci replied.

    Wonton noodles?Liang Hui wanted to continue asking, but Jiang Ci said, "Aunt Liang, how did you hold the knife just now, show me again."

    Liang Hui's back tightened immediately.

    Her boss is two rounds younger than her, and she still looks like a delicate and delicate girl, but her aura and behavior are stronger than her son who has been in society for several years.

    She worked as a cashier a few days ago, and it was relatively easy. In the past two days, she started to work as a kitchen assistant, and the pressure was great.

    It's really... The boss's cooking skills are too superb, and she feels ashamed as soon as she picks up the kitchen utensils.

    Liang Hui took a deep breath, grabbed the knife again, and made the movement of chopping stuffing just now.

    Jiang Ci didn't know the pressure she was bringing to others, so she pinched Liang Hui's finger and moved it a bit: "Aunt Liang, the index finger of your right hand should touch the root of the blade, don't bend over, relax your shoulders, stand with your legs apart,This saves effort with a knife.”

    Liang Hui adjusted her posture following Jiang Ci's guidance, and she felt much more relaxed.

    "It's so particular!" Liang Hui admired.

    "Well, remember." Jiang Ci instructed, turned around and began to unpack the bag, "You can put down the knife, let's see how the wonton noodles are made."

    Liang Hui swallowed her saliva and happily waited for the delicious food.

    Wanton Noodles is a Cantonese-style noodle dish. The soup is clear and fresh, and it has to be simmered slowly with rich ingredients.

    Jiang Ci clamped the dried earth fish he bought with iron clips, stretched it out to the fire and roasted it lightly, and took it off the fire after the golden fish body was roasted until both sides were slightly black and exuded a unique fragrance..

    She tore off the slightly burnt part of the dried fish, and threw it into the soup pot together with a lot of shrimp roe, pork ribs, and chicken bones.

    This pot of soup is simmered slowly for several hours until the delicious taste of seafood and meat bones has completely penetrated into the broth before entering the next process.

    "This...looks so fresh. This soup alone is good enough for dinner." Liang Hui saw so many ingredients thrown into the soup pot just to boil the final clear soup, and she could already imagine the taste of the finished product.

    Jiang Ci smiled: "The stuffing is also very important."

    The pork stuffing is three-point fat and seven-point thin, and mixed with fresh shrimp granules, this kind of stuffing is actually delicious enough. However, considering that it is the season of crabs recently, Jiang Ci mixed in some crab roe as well.The minced meat adds a layer of umami.

    The meat stuffing is not too different from the fresh meat dumplings with crab powder, and the ingredients are ready-made.

    The noodles are bamboo noodles kneaded with a lot of duck eggs, which has an extremely firm texture.

    After making the preparations, Jiang Ci devoted herself to making the steamed buns, and the rest of the wonton noodles had to wait until the broth was boiled before starting.

    ...

    On Friday, after getting off work, Song Feihang drove around to the middle school to pick up his younger sister who was waiting at the door, and then they went to Anxu Road together.

    It was early six o'clock, the road was completely blocked, Song Feihang stared at the endless car roof in front of him, and tapped his fingers on the steering wheel anxiously.

    Feng Qianguan has been open for a week, and more and more diners have tried it. From the beginning, the shop was empty, and now it is full every day soon after opening.

    "Will you be able to eat there at this point?" Song Feihang was anxious.

    Song Xinyu played the game calmly: "Sister Jiang will keep it for me."

    "...Damn, this is called sister, you called your brother?"

    Song Xinyu pouted.

    At this moment, a voice call came in, and Song Feihang glanced, it was his buddy Wang Hong.

    Song Feihang answered the phone and said angrily, "Hey, what are you doing?"

    Wang Hong: "Lao Song, are you coming to the bowling alley tonight? Brother Jie and I are waiting for you at the bowling alley."

    Bowling is a reserved entertainment item for Song Feihang and his brothers. In the past, there were such activities, and he promised to go fast.

    But this time he refused decisively: "No, no, I have business tonight."

    "What's going on tonight?" Wang Hong babbled, "Have you got a new girlfriend? You don't want to come to the brothers?"

    Song Xinyu looked up.

    Song Feihang was taken aback, and quickly explained: "It's a new store opening, I'm in a hurry to eat there, if I go late, there will be no more."

    Wang Hong was surprised: "Which store can make you abandon us?"

    Wang Hong can be regarded as a second-generation rich man, and his family relatives are also engaged in the catering industry. He has eaten in restaurants of all sizes in City A, and he can be regarded as a half-time gourmet.

    After trying it for a long time, many restaurants look like that to him, and few of them are worth leaving his brother to eat.

    Song Feihang: "It's a small shop, eat steamed buns."

    When Wang Hong heard this, he was even more surprised: "You don't need to make up this reason if you don't want to come..."

    His brother has traveled all over the world, has a lot of knowledge, and has a lot of money, what can't he eat?This time Baba rushed to a small shop!

    "I didn't make it up. I'll give you an address, come here if you like, I can only say that it's worth it."

    After Song Feihang finished speaking categorically, the red light ahead turned green, he stepped on the accelerator and hung up the phone.

    Listening to the busy tone of "beep beep beep", Wang Hong stayed where he was.

    "Why, isn't Lao Song coming?"

    Wang Hong: "If you don't come, what do you want to eat... Xiaolongbao?"

    "Small steamed buns?"

    Brother Jie and him looked at each other, and they both saw bewilderment in each other's eyes.

    Brother Jie: "Are there any delicious steamed buns in City A? A store under Jiang's?"

    The Jiang family operates the largest catering group in City A. Several well-known old-fashioned restaurants in the city are owned by the Jiang family. When they think of Chinese food, these are the first restaurants they think of.

    "I don't know." Wang Hong shook his head, remembering Song Feihang's last words, turned on his phone to check, and the other party sent a location.

    "Feng Qianguan?"

    ...

    At the same time, Uncle Zhang hurried to the store.

    Since he tasted the soup-filled xiaolongbao a few days ago, he couldn't help but come here every two or three days for the Teeth Ceremony.It's really expensive to eat, and it's too greedy if you don't eat it.

    He went out to do errands that day, and was delayed when he came back. When he arrived, he was horrified to find that the shop was full of people.

    Unlike the empty one a few days ago, in the past two days, people who arrive late can only wait at the door of the store.

    Feng Qianguan's store is not big, even if it is full, the number of diners can hardly be called a lot, but Uncle Zhang is still quite disturbed.

    He knew that the boss made a limited number of small steamed buns every day, and he also knew the taste. It was easy to seduce people to pack several copies after eating.

    If the diner in front of him is a local tycoon and suddenly buys up all the dumplings in the store, he will have to leave empty-handed!

    A few days ago, he did see someone pack ten cages and go home at once.

    That's a full sixty buns!

    Uncle Zhang was suppressing his worries about queuing up, when suddenly a sound of dispute entered his ears.

    He raised his head, and saw a man with flowery arms standing in front of the cash register, looking menacing.

    Uncle Zhang was taken aback. There are evil forces in this place?!No, the law and order in City A is still very good!

    "Are you still in business? Why can't you pack it? How can a small shop have so many rules!" The man's voice was rough and resonant.

    The aunt at the cashier shrank from being scolded by him, and didn't dare to reply. She paused for two seconds before saying weakly: "It's not that I don't want to do it, it's just that you suddenly have to pack twenty copies, it's too much. Once you buy it like this, the next oneDiners can't eat..."

    Uncle Zhang nodded in his heart, yes yes yes.

    The man said angrily: "I came first, why can't I buy first!"

    Aunt said: "We have written a limited number of copies since a few days ago..."

    At this time, a woman came out from the back kitchen.

    It was Feng Qianguan's ginger boss.Boss Jiang is wearing a jet black turtleneck today, which is well designed, looks slender, and has a porcelain white complexion.

    As soon as Jiang Ci appeared, the atmosphere in the store suddenly became subtly quiet.Everyone's eyes couldn't help but focus on her.

    Elegant, beautiful, capable, but also with a strange aura.

    "What's going on?" Jiang Ci asked calmly.

    As soon as Jiang Ci came out, the man with the flower arm suddenly stuttered for two seconds, and then he said with a stiff neck: "How do you do business! I can't pack a few more servings if I want to? I eat a lot, and you limit five servings per person to prevent it.Are people full?"

    The man was aggressive, but Jiang Ci was not in a hurry: "Five servings are thirty buns, can't you get enough?"

    Man: "Yes! I can't get enough to eat!"

    Jiang Ci pointed at the sign in front of the store: "Sir, I'm really sorry, our store has written a purchase restriction rule three days ago, and now I'm selling you too much, so I'm sorry for other customers."

    "But there is only a limit to the number of takeaways, and there is no limit to dine-in. How many baskets do you think you need to eat, or eat here first?"

    "If you want a large portion, you can also make an order one day in advance, as it is written on these signs."

    Jiang Ci's words were neither fast nor slow, completely unaffected by the man with flowery arms.

    In fact, Jiang Ci didn't expect to limit the purchase at the beginning, but she found that some diners would buy a large number of Xiaolongbao at one time.For her, this is actually quite trouble-free, as soon as the sales are sold out, get off work early.But after seeing the diners who came behind were all disappointed, she decided to introduce the rule of purchase restriction.

    She doesn't have too many customers at the moment, and it hasn't reached the point where the dishes have been resold at high prices - Jiang Ci has really encountered such a thing in her previous life.

    Just in case, she set the rules first——

    There is no limit to the portion size when diners dine in. If it is packed, one person can take up to five Xiaolongbao, which can basically meet the needs of a small family.

    After Jiang Ci finished speaking, the man with the flower arm stood still in front of the cash register, as if he wanted to say something else.

    The diners around were a little commotion.

    Uncle Zhang finally couldn't help it, and yelled at the inside through a few guests: "There is no limit for dine-in meals, why don't you sit down and eat! Eat as much as you like, and no one cares about you if you are full."

    The flower-armed man couldn't find an excuse, so he could only say, "My brother wants to eat too!"

    Uncle Zhang: "Then ask them to come and eat! Look outside, there are so many queues. You buy so much at once, and you don't think about others."

    Man: "My brother doesn't want to line up!"

    Uncle Zhang: "Your brother doesn't want it, but people outside think it? If you really want to buy more, you book it. The boss wrote it clearly. How old are you? You will make trouble in front of a little girl. Are you embarrassed?"

    man:"……"

    Uncle Zhang crackled and said, no one dared to respond to the little old man's choking.

    The flower-armed man turned his head, and found that the eyes of the diners outside were all fixed on him, and his expression didn't look very friendly, as if he was just a predator.

    Although, he did come to snatch food.

    The flower-armed man suddenly became a little timid.

    When Song Feihang and Song Xinyu got out of the car, they saw a strange atmosphere in the store, and there was a man with flowery arms standing in front of Boss Jiang!

    God!Song Feihang subconsciously stretched out his hand, but failed to catch it, his sister had already rushed out like a rabbit!

    An alarm sounded in Song Feihang's heart, and he ran into the store with his long legs.

    Everyone in Feng Qianguan felt a gust of wind blowing into the store. First, a little girl who looked like a junior high school student glared at the big man angrily: "You bully others, how shameless are you?!"

    Then a man ran in and pulled the girl away: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, the kid didn't watch it." He said while tugging, "It's not too sunny, it looks like it frightened the kid, Boss Jiang, are you okay?"Don't you want to call the police?"

    Song Feihang retreated while talking.

    What is this all about?Everyone was in a mess.The flower-armed man was staring and almost suffocating, but could he really be angry with a little girl?

    Although he is shameless, he still has some face.

    "It's all right, just a little misunderstanding. This gentleman just doesn't understand the new regulations in the store." Jiang Ci smoothed things over, "How about it, sir, do you still order?"

    "If it's just that the five cages are not enough to eat, we have introduced new dishes today." Jiang Ci pointed to the plate behind him, and a new small wooden sign was hung under "Today's Menu".

    [Crab Roe Shrimp Wonton Noodles: 60 RMB]

    If this kind of thing happened and he still ordered, what should he take?The man wanted to leave with a dark face, but when he turned around, he saw a diner next door...

    In the noodles.

    Even after such a big event happened, the diner was still so oblivious.

    "..."

    The flower-armed man turned around with a serious expression: "Sixty yuan! So expensive?"

    Jiang Ci shrugged: "The materials are worth the price."

    She couldn't help but buy the highest grade seafood that she could find in the market just for the seafood she used to make soup. She didn't believe that men couldn't smell the fragrance.

    At least the other diners smelled it.

    "No vision! This is the top seafood."

    "As soon as you smell it, you know that the soup base is useless!"

    The man clenched his fists, trying to turn around and scold him, but he couldn't help thinking, what the hell does this soup taste like.

    ...he really wanted to eat it.

    After scolding this time, he will have no face to enter this store.

    Forget it, forget it.

    The man humiliated: "Hmph, I won't argue with you today. Get me some wonton noodles, and pack me five small steamed buns!"

    Jiang Ci: "That's right."

    The people behind watched the farce end and held back for a long time. At this time, they could finally move forward and excitedly began to order.

    Many people are attracted by the new wonton noodles, and the sales of wonton noodles are on the rise.

    Song Feihang dragged his sister to the end of the line, and only breathed out when he saw the matter ended peacefully.

    He looked inside, and saw the man with the flower arm dragged away the chair and sat on the table beside him, with an angry face still on his face.

    After a while, Jiang Ci brought up the wonton noodles.

    From Song Feihang's point of view, he couldn't see the appearance of the noodles, nor could he smell the taste, but through the holes in the carved screen, he saw the expression of the sullen man slightly loosened, and he was sweating profusely after eating.

    The man ate and ate, even raised his neck, leaned his body on the back of the chair relaxedly, and sighed contentedly.

    He seemed to be intoxicated by the delicious food, and the unhappiness just now disappeared.

    It was like changing face on the spot.

    Seeing the man's expression, Song Feihang was seduced by all his gluttons.

    He really wants to eat that noodle too!
