Boss Sun, Boss Hua, Brother Fang and others all praised the meal, which gave Liu Yu and Cong Chunhua more confidence.
The first day of April is the day when cooked cut shops will open.
When Li Qingshan and Liuyu were selling meat in the front shop, Cong Chunhua had already marinated the meat in the backyard.
The recipe of braised pork was adjusted by her and Willow Fish to make it taste better, and the amount of spices was strictly recorded. According to the amount, these spices are packed into small sachets sewn with fine silk.
Every time you marinate the meat, just throw the corresponding amount of spice packets into the pot according to the amount of meat, and you don't have to worry about missing it, it's very convenient.
Once the meat is cooked, the aroma gradually becomes overbearing.
Just like that day, people who came to buy meat always asked, "What is this for? It smells so good?" "Braised
pork." Li Qingshan pointed to the vacant window on the left and said, "This afternoon, we will be in The stewed meat is the same as when the butcher shop first opened, and it costs two cents a catty!"
The man looked in the direction he pointed, and saw that there was a red paper poster on the window on the left, and he also opened a shop. Knowing a few words, I took a look at the well-cooked ones, which are not much more expensive than the raw ones, and immediately said: "Then I must come over this afternoon to try something new, it smells delicious!" I didn't make it on the first day
. Dare to do too much, only 20 catties of pork ribs, 10 catties of pork head meat, 4 trotters and 3 catties of pork belly.
Thanks to the publicity of Boss Sun and Brother Fang in the past few days, let alone others, the rich merchants on this street were looking forward to smelling the smell of meat that had lingered for a long time that day .
High or low, you have to try the cold pork head meat that Boss Sun raved about.
Therefore, as soon as the firecrackers were set off in the afternoon, and as soon as the Shuqie shop opened, before the young man hired by Li Qingshan to go out to shout, many customers came to the Shuqie window.
The first one was Boss Sun, "Li Fulang, bring me two catties of pork head meat, cut a pig ear, and put more spicy peppers and vinegar." That day,
Li Qingshan and the others had this dish at their banquet. Boss Sun and Boss Hua are still not willing to use chopsticks for the meat of the pig's head. But seeing that Wang Daxiang was full of praise when he took a sip of the wine, neither of them could hold back.
Unexpectedly, after tasting this, I have been thinking about this taste for the past few days, and drinking without this dish will not taste good!
Boss Sun has a good temper. Everyone who knows him on this street loves to make fun of him, and the people behind him who lined up with empty bowls said, "Are you still eating out of your way?" "That's not it!
" Stuffing his slightly plump stomach, he proudly said: "This pig's head meat is fragrant but not greasy, refreshing and delicious, and the pig's ears are crunchy when bitten, which is a completely different taste. You need to add more spicy and vinegar before you go with wine and rice!"
The people in the queue at the back all laughed, but they didn't take it seriously, thinking that no matter what, this is the meat of the pig's head that can't be put on the table, how can it be delicious.
Unexpectedly, after Boss Sun got his mixed pork head meat and kindly gave each of them a taste, these people grabbed the remaining eight catties of pork head meat.
"Du Yuniang! There are only two people in your family eating now. If you want two catties of meat at a time, you can finish it!" "
Why can't you finish it? I will eat half a catty with pancakes now when I go back, and another half catty at night! The two of you are just right! "
Liu Yu was amused, and explained in detail: "Our shop not only has pork head meat, but the ribs and pork belly taste good. After the meat is weighed, I will make more soup. The meat is sandwiched with pancakes, and the soup is poured on It's delicious on noodles or white rice."
Mrs. Zhang, who had just scolded Du Yuniang, chuckled after hearing this, and asked, "Then how do you sell pork ribs
and pork belly ?" It counts six coins, and three coins for the meat."
It was Liu Yu's idea to sell the meat by the piece.
Because all pork belly is fat and thin, a catty of raw meat costs eighteen coins. After leaving the pot, the raw meat shrank and became firmer, and there was only about eight taels left over a catty of raw meat, so they had to set the price at twenty-five cents per catty to make a profit.
But it is estimated that many people would not be willing to spend twenty-five Wen in this way. It's better to sell it for a piece, and there must be many people who are willing to spend this small amount of money to buy it back and put pancakes for their children.
Liu Yu used chopsticks to show Aunt Zhang a piece of pork belly they cut nine pieces of raw meat into the pot.
Aunt Zhang looked at it and smiled, "Okay! This meat is thick, then give me two catties of pork ribs, and two slices of meat!"
The person who just got the meat in front of him had to pinch a piece and taste it , when the people in the front praise it for its deliciousness, those in the queue at the back are relieved.
Passers-by on the street saw the crowds here and were curious, "This is a newly opened shop? What are they selling? There are so many people!" "It sells stewed
pork! There are pork ribs, pork belly, pig's trotters and cold pork head meat!"
"Pork head meat? Is that delicious?"
"Why is it not delicious? It was marinated and mixed with ingredients. I just tasted it, and it tastes good, but I didn't grab it!"...
Pork
Ribs A hoof costs eight cents a catty, and pig head meat costs ten cents a catty. It's not too expensive to sell a piece of meat for three cents, and it's within the acceptable range for those who can often eat meat.
Therefore, where is this small amount enough to sell, it will be sold out in a short time.
Cong Chunhua still couldn't believe it, looked at the scraped wooden basin and said: "This...is it sold out?"
Liu Yu and Li Qingshan looked at each other and smiled, they didn't expect the business to be so good.
After returning home and closing the door, the family began to resume the familiar business.
If this amount is followed, it will not be as cheap as the first time it opened today. After excluding the money for spices and firewood, on the basis of the profit from selling pork, you can earn an extra 80 yuan.
And they will gradually sell out in the future, and they will not only sell this amount every day.
After the account was settled, the whole family laughed happily.
Liu Yu even said: "In the future, let's make pork ribs and handle meat first, and sell them before lunch. We will definitely sell more.
" They are all marinated. Pork head meat is a cold dish that can be sold at any time, but pork head meat is best eaten while it is hot, and it is better to sell more and faster when it is in time for meals.
Li Qingshan added: "I'll go to Donglin Butcher Shop tomorrow to see if I can buy some pig heads."
This Donglin Butcher Shop is the largest butcher shop in Yunshui County. It kills dozens of pigs every day and sells all the good meat. It was given to restaurants and restaurants, and the leftovers were sold at the meat stall at the door.
Li Qingshan only kills two pigs a day, according to the situation of the cooked business today, the ten catties of pig head meat is definitely not enough to sell.
Liu Yu nodded, went back to the house and put down the money, then threw herself into Li Qingshan's arms, and said excitedly: "Happy!" To say the least,
on the basis of the interest of the two pigs, they can earn another 100 yuan a day. One hundred words!
Adding up this way, they can earn about 400 Wen a day!
What a concept!
One year's shop rent can be earned back in just one month!
Maybe you can earn one hundred taels of silver a year!
"I'm happy too!" Li Qingshan even laughed softly.
Liu Yu's eyes became even more curved, and the two hugged each other quietly for a while, going out to do their own business.
After half a month of construction and half a month of drying, Xiaoxue's new house finally moved into the new house today, and Li Qingshan was invited over for a drink.
Liuyu called Li Lerong to go out and dig some wild vegetables and cut some fireweeds on the way back.
"Brother Liuyu, it seems that I haven't come out with you for a long time."
Liuyu thought it was true, since she opened the shop, most of the time she came back late after work. Occasionally, in the early hours, I have to go to work in the field, and I haven't talked to Li Lerong for a long time.
"There should be more in the future." Liu Yu expected.
If the business of the cooked and cut shop is as good as it is today, then Li Qingshan will be able to sell most of the pork at noon. In this way, in the afternoon, he and Cong Chunhua watched the shop sell cooked cuts, and Li Qingshan came back to pick them up after collecting the pigs.
After all, he might be able to go home on time.
"That's good." Li Lerong's eyes brightened, and he praised sincerely: "Brother Liuyu, you are really good." Not only are you
dexterous, but you can also do business. What a good husband.
Liu Yu smiled, "I'm going home, let's not talk about it, let's dig something to eat today."
Speaking of which, it was still during this period of time to test dishes all day, which caused the family to feel a little nauseous when they smelled meat recently. Liu Yu thought about having some refreshing side dishes for dinner today.
At this time, there will be more wild vegetables for energy saving, except shepherd's purse and noodle vegetables in spring, purslane, gray vegetables, amaranth, broom seedlings, etc. have all grown.
After thinking about it for a while, Liu Yu decided to pick some stir-fried wild amaranth, salad with purslane, and fragrant cake made of acacia flowers, and then use the radish and eggs at home to make a warming soup.
Wild vegetables are everywhere, and it is easy to pick them up.
The fire grass they use here is a kind of grass called Osmanthus fragrans. After cutting it home and drying it in the sun, it ignites the fire very quickly. However, it is not resistant to burning, and it is used too much at one time. After cutting a lot of willows, the basket is firmly pressed.
After returning home, he first dried the harvested Osmanthus in the yard, and Liuyu began to prepare dinner.
When he picked the wild vegetables, he picked the freshest and tender ones, so there was no need to choose them at the moment, and they could be put into the pot after being washed in water.
Wild amaranth loves garlic the most. Chop the garlic cloves and stir-fry until the fragrance comes out. Then add amaranth, stir-fry a little, and add a pinch of salt. The taste is very delicious.
Blanch the horse tooth vegetables in water and cool them down, add minced garlic and chili noodles, pour hot oil, then pour in a little soy sauce and mature vinegar, a cool and refreshing side dish in early summer is ready.
April is the time to eat Sophora japonica, the fragrance of the flower is sweet and sweet, remove the leaves of Sophora japonica, wash it, add wheat noodles and eggs, add a little salt, and fry it directly in the pan, one bite is full of sweetness.
The last is egg radish soup. Fry whole eggs and add boiling water, then add fried shredded white radish. After boiling on high heat, add salt and chopped green onion to taste. The soup is thick and white, very refreshing and delicious.
When the dishes were almost ready, Cong Chunhua and Mrs. Guan came back from pounding rice.
Cong Chunhua looked at the dishes on the table, her tongue was full of saliva, she was very happy, and praised: "Brother Yu is still thoughtful."
However, there is a person who goes to eat big fish and big meat today.
