Chapter 76
This whole winter, Luo Zining stayed at home and became a lot lazy. Last winter, he was still able to go out to buy, visit the brick factory, see the location of the winery, make tofu, brew wine, and grow peppers.
But this year is different. If you can entrust others to do it, let others do it.
He first wrote the recipe of the spicy hot pot base, and asked Zhao Xiaoyu to study it with her maids.
After researching, he gave Zhao Xiaoyu the method of making vermicelli, vermicelli and sweet potato wide noodles to study.
As well as the previous corn, the old ones are ground for flour, which can be used as dry grains, porridge and snacks.
The tender corn can be boiled in soup, or it can be roasted in the house.
After adding a fireplace in the house, he sat in front of the fire and made tea, drank fruit wine, roasted sweet potatoes, corn and chestnuts when he was free.
He never leaves the house to do the things that others can do with his mouth.
Fortunately, Zhao Xiaoyu is also smart. He gave the method for the hot pot base and made it in a day. The vermicelli and wide noodles were tested several times, and finally succeeded.
Luo Zining ate spicy hot pot with Huo Lingzhi in the room.
Last year, the hot pot they ate was clear soup with some mushrooms, red dates and goji berries, and the seasoning was spicy.
This year is good, the whole soup base is spicy.
In the past, Huo Lingzhi was not used to chili peppers, but he often ate chili-fried dishes throughout the summer, and his resistance to spicy food was greatly enhanced, making it easy to eat spicy hot pot.
The cattle here are relatively scarce, so they can’t eat tripe, beef and venetian leaves when eating spicy hot pot. They can only eat lamb tripe and pork belly. Fortunately, these are enough, and they are also delicious.
Luo Zining also asked someone to cut the kidneys, duck intestines, and pig brains to eat together.
These have broken Huo Lingzhi's bottom line, he has never eaten offal, he feels very dirty, watching his little princess eat these intestines and kidneys is unbearable, and then he saw the bowl of brains being servedAt that time, he left directly.
Luo Zining also told him to come over, "It's delicious, come and taste it and you'll know."
"Don't force me." Huo Lingzhi stayed away.
Seeing this, Luo Zining found it interesting, and even boiled a brain flower and brought it to Huo Lingzhi to eat, "You used to cut off people's heads when you were on the battlefield, have you never seen what the inside of a human head looks like?You are not afraid of humans, let alone pigs."
"I also want to say to you, haven't you always been timid before, why do you dare to eat this kind of thing now." Huo Lingzhi showed disgust, "I advise you not to eat this kind of thing."
"It depends on the situation if you are timid. If you let me go to see the slaughter of pigs and see them being cut open, I will definitely be scared, and I may vomit unsuitably, but it is different when it comes to food. I know it eats it in my mouth.The inside is fragrant, and the feeling is different." Luo Zining continued to recommend to him, "Don't eat brains, eat some kidneys, it's also delicious when boiled."
"If it's a human brain, can you eat it?" Huo Lingzhi asked him.
"Of course I can't eat it. I can only eat animals, and I only eat pigs. I don't know if I can eat other animals." Luo Zining had eaten pig brains in restaurants before crossing, and had never eaten anything else.For animals, he won't touch things he hasn't eaten.
Huo Lingzhi was relieved that his little concubine still had some humanity, "This one looks similar to a human, I advise you to..."
"It's not the same. Eating human flesh can cause poisoning. I heard that eating the same kind of meat can cause poisoning, but eating meat from different kinds of animals won't. So you can try it without worry." Luo Zining really didn't expect that Huo Lingzhi's murderOne sword at a time, how can I be afraid of eating brains.
"If you don't get poisoned, would you still want to eat it?" Huo Lingzhi wasn't afraid, but just felt dirty and disgusting, and didn't want to put this kind of thing he considered unclean into his mouth.
"If you eat it, we will eat hot pot in the future. Let's divide it into two pots." Huo Lingzhi has his own bottom line.
"Are you sure you don't want to eat it any way?" Luo Zining straddled his lap and leaned into his ear and said, "Take a bite, and I'll kiss you. It's the mouth. Are you sure you don't want to eat it?"
Luo Zining's voice seduced Huo Lingzhi, and Huo Lingzhi's heart beat violently, wishing he could swallow this nasty little guy into his stomach.
Luo Zining looked at him triumphantly, as if pinching his weakness: "Aren't you going to eat like this?"
Huo Lingzhi took the bowl in his hand, and when Luo Zining thought he really wanted to eat, Huo Lingzhi put the bowl on the table behind him.
"You, you really don't want to eat?" Luo Zining was startled, "Didn't this take you down?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a big hand pinned down firmly on his lower back, and it was already too late when Luo Zining wanted to escape.
"You threw yourself into this trap, no wonder I'm the king." Huo Lingzhi kissed Luo Zining hard amidst Luo Zining's struggle and moaning.
Everyone in Luozining was dazed by the kiss, and their legs went limp when they were let go.
"Let me eat that kind of thing again, and I'll kiss you just once." Huo Lingzhi turned against the guest, making Luo Zining cover his mouth and run away.
Later, both of them had to use mandarin duck pot when they ate hot pot.
Luo Zining couldn't help complaining: "I haven't seen anyone eat mandarin duck pot with spicy food on both sides, so you despise me so much?"
Huo Lingzhi pushed his chopsticks with his own, "Don't touch the offal you eat with my soup."
"You!" Luo Zining looked at him angrily, "It's delicious, are you sure you don't want to eat it?"
"Don't eat." Huo Lingzhi refused him very principled.
"Didn't you say that to love someone is to love everything about him?" Luo Zining said in his heart, didn't you have a serious love brain before?How do you wake up after eating?
Huo Lingzhi: "I didn't ask you to give up your favorite food, so I already loved you very much."
Luo Zining curled his lips, "Well, I don't force you, but you don't eat offal, but you will miss out on many delicious dishes~ such as Maoxuewang."
Huo Lingzhi asked him what Maoxuewang's materials were, and Luo Zining gave him a brief introduction, and Huo Lingzhi was surprised again.
Unexpectedly, his little princess not only eats internal organs and brains, but also blood. How timid is this?It's just a little devil.
During the Chinese New Year period, there were no caravans coming over, and after the Chinese New Year, the number of foreign businessmen gradually increased, and Luo Zining's small restaurant added new dishes.
Such as spicy hot pot, and stewed vermicelli with pickled vegetables.
They have never heard of spicy hot pot, nor have they heard of vermicelli, but they have heard of sauerkraut, which is quite delicious.
They called the store clerk to ask what is vermicelli, is it a special dish here?How never heard of it before.
The store clerk told them: "It's like the tofu in the past. It's all the owner's recipe that our boss came up with."
He meant that vermicelli, like tofu, is the only one in the country, and there are no other places, but these people think that vermicelli is as smooth and tender as tofu.
Many of these people have already learned the recipe of tofu, and many people came to buy the recipe later. In a group of ten, Luo Zining has already earned 50,000 taels of silver by selling the recipe of tofu.Opening a restaurant here sells tofu and makes a lot of money.
Although this is to make quick money, he still knows a lot of new things. He can't hold everything in his own hands to do business, so he won't be exhausted, so he can pass on a few things appropriately and earn some quick money.Money is also good for him.
These merchants ordered this dish when they heard about Unique. They thought it might be an upgraded version of tofu. If it tastes good, they can continue to buy the recipe from the boss.
Although they spent 1,000 taels on tofu recipes before, they made a lot of money. Larger shops can earn tens of thousands of taels a month from tofu, and smaller shops can earn hundreds of taels a month.It was the most profitable deal, and Luo Zining later sent people from the brick factory and their caravan to recruit workers, and they were very enthusiastic to help.
This time met Fresh Food again, so naturally want to be the first to try and buy the formula first.
Before they waited for the food to be served, they found a booklet on each of their tables. They thought it was a menu. Paper is very expensive in this era, and it is even more expensive to make a book. The owner of their shopIt's quite bold, to make the menu into such a beautiful booklet, and put a copy on each table.
The menus of other restaurants are all made of wooden signs and placed on the front, so that diners can see the names of the dishes on the wooden signs, or listen to the name of the dishes reported by the waiter. Larger restaurants will also have menus, and the menus will also be very large.It's very beautiful, but what kind of guests are those big restaurants receiving? Their small restaurant is full of fish and dragons, and they are not afraid of being ruined by others?
Some people took the booklet out of curiosity, and the first sentence they saw after opening it was "Look carefully, this woman is called Xiaomei. She was originally a daughter of a rich family, but an accident made her marry a poor farmer.For five years, my stomach has not moved at all, and because of this, I was beaten and scolded by my mother-in-law, and my husband even spent her dowry to raise a concubine outside."
When the businessman saw the beginning of this short video marketing account style, his attention was instantly attracted, and he continued to watch "Inadvertently, Xiaomei got a pair of wool socks from a sister textile factory, which changed her life.
Her hands and feet are like the roots of a big tree. The cold weather penetrates her roots and destroys the vitality in her body. After wearing the wool socks from the sister textile factory, her roots are protected. After three years of holding the two, her husbandKneeling in front of her and weeping, he slapped her face hundreds of times and begged her for forgiveness. He cut off three fingers and swore that he would only love her in this life. The mother-in-law also prepared meals and brought them to her bed every day, and fed them herself.she eats.* It is more effective for couples to wear it together, the woman wears it to nourish yin, and the man wears it to nourish yang."
This small advertisement was written by Luo Zining, and the sister textile factory was also named by him.
He knows that the three views of this small advertisement are not correct, but due to the limitations of the times, it is not considered cheating for a man in this era to have three wives and four concubines, and people in this era care most about having children.Only people will read the story. If he writes that Xiaomei abandons the scumbag and becomes self-reliant, or meets a man who is better than the scumbag and has a higher status, then he will be criticized by the people of this era, and criticize him for writing such a shit.How can a woman abandon her husband? He slapped himself hundreds of times. She still doesn’t forgive him. He really doesn’t know what’s good or bad. He’s criticized by Barabara. His socks may not be sold for the rest of his life.Contraband, men and women will not buy his socks.
Moreover, this story is full of loopholes, Miss Qianjin will never marry a poor farmer, and the poor farmer will not raise a concubine outside. His story is just like the fairy tales made up by an ancient scholar.
Let’s talk about the businessman again. After reading it, he immediately remembered the wool socks from the sister textile factory. Then he turned around and asked other people. He found that everyone’s booklet had a different story.The protagonist is a man.
The same marketing slogan begins, "Look carefully, this man is called Xiaoshuai, he is a genius, but after ten years of hard study, he was replaced by the test papers, failed the exam, the old mother at home is also sick, and the old man lost his leg when he went out to chop firewood.He broke it, and the reason for his unlucky luck was that the person who changed his test paper put a curse on him, hoping that his whole family would die, so that the matter of changing the test paper would not be exposed.
Xiaoshuai's family are all ordinary farmers, how could they fight for power? Fortunately, at this time, he accidentally got a pair of socks from his sister's textile factory, which changed his life.
I saw that the whole body of these socks was glowing red, and the words "stepping on the villain" were embroidered on the bottom of the socks. He immediately bought three pairs, and put on these miraculous stepping on the little person socks for his parents and himself.The curse disappeared, and the counterattack was successfully transferred.
The person who secretly exchanged the test papers was exposed, and the family was sentenced to Ling Chi by the emperor, and they cut into pieces of meat in public. The emperor summoned him in person, held his hand and said that you have suffered, and married his most beloved princess..*If you want to change your luck, it will be more effective for the whole family to wear it together~ Remember, you must be sincere when wearing it."
There are several versions of this pamphlet. There is also a princess who married a poor man and was abused in various ways. After wearing these socks, the husband chased his wife to the crematorium.
There is also a poor girl who wears these socks to transfer her luck, and meets the prince who is in trouble by chance, and the prince will marry her as the prince's concubine.
Or a businessman suddenly went bankrupt, got all kinds of bad luck, and immediately became the richest man in the country wearing villain socks.
These businessmen were attracted by these stories, and asked the waiter in the shop where the sister's textile factory was, and whether the socks were expensive?
The waiter in the store said that there is a store next to the store that sells these socks, and it will not open until two days later. However, these socks can still be worn for another two or three months in the north, and they cannot be worn in the south or the Central Plains, because it is too hot.
They still care about whether it is hot or not, what they want is to change their luck, and they also think about whether their family's heirs are weak, whether wearing these socks can give birth to more children.
But the store would not open until three days later, and they were impatient, eager to see if the socks were real or fake.
Fortunately, the sauerkraut stewed vermicelli they ordered had already arrived, and everyone's eyes were on the vermicelli.
The vermicelli was crystal clear and looked unusual. Someone tasted it and said, "It's delicious!"
Others immediately lowered their heads to taste it, their eyes lit up, not only full of food, but also full of business.
They asked the shop waiter, "Aside from making sauerkraut stewed vermicelli, can I make other kinds of vermicelli?"
"Yes, in addition to vermicelli, there are vermicelli and wide vermicelli. They can be made differently. It depends on how you do it." The waiter said.
These merchants all understand what he means, the same is true for the tofu before, and there are only a few kinds of dishes made with tofu in this shop, but when they go back to cook by themselves, everyone has integrated the characteristics of their hometown, and the taste is more of their own hometown..
This vermicelli looks crystal clear, it looks expensive, and it is unique, and it has a sense of novelty. There must be many rich people who want to buy it to try something new. The rich like to eat things that ordinary people can't eat, so that they can show theirposition of strength.
A businessman couldn't help asking the waiter: "Is this secret recipe still for sale?"
"It's useless to buy, you don't have any raw materials." The waiter said mysteriously: "Only we have it, and it's very rare. Our boss said that this year's production is small, and only this store sells it. Next year he will specializeOpen a vermicelli factory, this vermicelli is easy to store before it is cooked, and it is not easy to spoil, you can buy it and sell it.”
When they heard this, it was a pity that the socks could not be bought immediately, and the vermicelli had to wait until next year, but the more they were made to wait, the more they looked forward to getting it.
Three days later, the sock store next to it opened, and it was immediately crowded with foreign businessmen. They touched the socks, saw the quality of the socks, and the shop assistants showed them after wearing them, and they immediately smelled them.Business opportunities, don't care if the brochure is true or not, they will definitely make a lot of money if they promote it according to the words in the brochure.
However, the price of these socks is quite expensive. A pair of dyed and embroidered socks cost ten taels of silver, purely dyed socks cost nine taels of silver, and white socks cost six taels of silver. If wholesale, each pair can be cheaper by a tael of silver. This is not a small amount.The three most expensive pairs of socks are worth a jar of wine, and the weather is about to turn warm.
But even so, there are still many people who buy it back. There are so many rich people, and they add a price of ten taels and twenty taels. Some people want to buy it, and some people want to see if they can wear it for themselves.transport.
The author has something to say:
The name of the textile factory is chosen randomly, any similarity is purely coincidental
