Cows are full of treasures, especially when eating hot pot.

Various parts of beef, tripe, yellow throat, etc. are all must-have ingredients for hot pot.

In the agricultural era, cattle were important tools for plowing the fields. Killing cattle privately was against the laws of the dynasty. This was also true in Dajing Kingdom.

But there are policies and countermeasures. After all, humans are carnivores. Although the policy does not allow it, but there are too many people eating it, the court will turn a blind eye. It can't arrest all the people in the world, right?

What's more, private killing of cattle is not allowed, but it is different for butchers who have registered with the government. They are legal cattle killers, so Lu Yiming can still buy cattle ingredients if he wants.

Not long after they returned home, little drops of rain began to fall from the sky. If they looked carefully at the rain that fell in a hurry, they could also catch the light snowflakes mixed in. As time went by, the rain slowed down and the wind and snow increased.

Lu Yiming exhaled a breath of white air and went in to light the fireplace.

To save money, Lu's father and mother did not use the fireplace to keep warm when they were not at home. This was also the case when he went to town to study on weekdays. After dark, the warm fireplace would be lit in this home.

He also told three people that there was no need to be so frugal, as a month's worth of firewood and fire bricks was not much, and he could afford it.

Yes, yes, yes, the three of them nodded and remained the same.

Lu Yiming could guess what they were thinking. It was just that the expenses required for his martial arts examination were huge, and his family had no other sources of income except a few acres of farmland. Prepare for the future when he needs to use money for something.

I understand what they are worried about, and selling alcohol cannot be delayed.

The wine has been made and the effect is good. The only thing left now is how to market it, not to let the nobles buy it out, but to everyone.

His picture is a bit big. He wants to sell this kind of wine with special effects as a high-end wine, not ordinary rice wine.

People everywhere on the street are shouting "Liquor is on sale! Don't miss it if you pass by." This kind of promotion method is too cheap.

Lu Yiming was lying on the bed thinking about countermeasures and fell into a deep sleep unknowingly.

The next day, the sun rose above the pink and jade sky and shone brightly on the earth, but the temperature outside was even colder than yesterday.

Lu Yiming got up early and started preparing the clear oil hot pot base and tomato hot pot base.

Pei Xing followed the instructions and went to check the jar of chili peppers he had made before: "Husband, there is still half a jar of pickled chili peppers left."

Since his husband taught him and his mother how to make sweet chili sauce and bad chili sauce, their family almost every time You will have a satisfying meal in one day.

Nowadays, their appetite for spicy food is increasing, but the pickled peppers in the jar and the chili peppers in the yard are rapidly decreasing visibly to the naked eye. Now only half of the jar is left.

Lu Yiming nodded: "It's enough to make the ingredients."

"Husband," Pei Xing's little face wrinkled up and he hesitated when speaking, "Are those offal really edible?"

Lu Yiming ordered some mutton from Butcher Li earlier. , beef, butter, large blood vessels and cow stomach, the other party brought them this morning and almost shocked Pei Xing. There are really not many farmers who dare to eat cows.

He looked around before and saw that no one was paying attention, so he secretly took it. At this moment, he still didn't understand why his husband needed these things to make this so-called "hot pot".

He can still understand meat, but this offal is really unacceptable.

Lu Yiming only took one look and knew that the meat sent by Butcher Li was good. He poured the hot pot base that he had fried in oil into a clay pot and let it sit for a while. Then he took over the basket of ingredients and began to peel off the ingredients. Belly.

"Wash these big blood vessels with your hands, let's talk about it for a while, and satisfy your taste later."

Hearing this, Pei Xing became more and more curious, but her husband never avoided his question, how delicious is this food? Will choose to whet his appetite.

But when he thought about the various delicacies cooked by his former husband, he couldn't help but swallow frequently, and the movements of his hands became much faster.

After washing tomatoes, baby cabbage, potatoes, duck blood, tofu skin, enoki mushrooms and other vegetables and putting them aside, Lu Yiming took the time to start making the tomato pot base.

After the strong fragrance spread, a familiar voice sounded outside the door.

"You better come here if you are stuck."

Behind Jiang Runshan and Gu Huan was a tall man, Xie Cheng, whom he hadn't seen for a long time. Although he was a little surprised, Lu Yiming still teased the three of them familiarly.

When people come, there is no need to put out the tomato base for later use. Instead, we directly set up the custom-made mandarin duck pot and start today's main course.

Lu Yiming's cutting movements on the cutting board were smooth and fluid, and the mandarin duck pot began to bubble and boil.

There is no specific hot pot table here. A few people moved the small benches and sat around in front of the iron bucket hot pot with their rice bowls. They watched Lu Yiming without blinking as he put the meat slices and vegetables in little by little.

"It's a pity that there are no shrimp paste and oil consumption." Lu Yiming looked at the pile of side dishes on the table, feeling a little pity, "But luckily there are chili peppers, otherwise we wouldn't be able to eat the hot pot."

Onions, minced garlic, beef cubes, Crushed peanuts...

cilantro? He can't.

Everyone followed Lu Yiming's example of mixing the sauce. Gu Huan took a chopstick and took a bite. He felt it was a bit hard to describe. How will he eat it later?

Under the watch of a group of people, Lu Yiming picked up a piece of lamb that looked particularly spicy from the spicy pot, put it into the seasoning bowl in his hand, rolled it back and forth, and put it in his mouth to chew.

"The taste of mutton is a little bit strong." Lu Yiming can tolerate spicy food, but for him, this is only slightly spicy. "When it's cooked, the meat is ready to eat." When the

others saw that he was enjoying the meal, they didn't look as surprised as they expected. It was spicy, so I started to put my chopsticks into the pot tentatively.

Seeing Pei Xing's eagerness to try the meat in the spicy pot, Lu Yiming remembered that the tomato and beef soup had not yet been mixed, so he stopped his hand. In confusion, he picked up the empty bowl, added beef cubes and celery minced, and filled up a large spoonful of tomato soup.

He was supposed to make tomato and beef soup before cutting out the ingredients, but he forgot about it for a while. Was it because he hadn't eaten hot pot for a long time?

He blew the hot air and handed it to his husband: "Try this and see if you like it." When

the others saw Lu Yiming's actions, they reached for the spicy pot and tomato pot and stopped in mid-air. For a while I didn't know whether to eat meat or drink soup first.

I suffered the loss of my lack of knowledge!

Gu Huan was the first to put down the bowl and chopsticks, then stood up to add a bowl for himself. Jiang Runshan followed closely behind. The relationship between the two was not as stiff as it was yesterday. It seemed that they had sat down and had a good conversation. .

Xie Cheng inserted himself between them, intentionally or unintentionally separating the two, earning a look from both of them.

As for Father Lu and Mother Lu, they continued their actions, but moved their chopsticks from the spicy pot to the tomato pot, picked up a piece of baby cabbage, pretended to eat a little as if nothing had happened, and then slowly and leisurely served themselves a bowl of tomato beef soup.

Lu Yiming asked again: "Are you used to it?"

Pei Xing nodded perfunctorily, speechless because of the delicious food. He continued to compete with the hot bowl of tomato and beef soup, ignoring Lu Yiming for a while.

The latter was a little amused, looking at his slightly bulging breasts fondly. The little miser and the snack food, no matter what, they were his treasures.

Afraid that some people would find it spicy, Lu Yiming specially prepared cold water and set it aside.

The scene was almost the same as what he expected. Several people who had finished the soup couldn't wait to pick up the vegetables in the spicy pot, dipped them in the ingredients and put them in their mouths. The result was predictable.

The coughs continued. If Jiang Runshan hadn't seen that the others had no objections, he would have almost thought that this kid was determined to take revenge on him because he was too harsh on him some time ago.

He had eaten it just now when he saw that the other party had not changed his attitude. Why was it that when he arrived at their place, he was completely incapacitated?

"Ahem, cough, cough," Gu Huan was not as calm as Jiang Runshan. He gulped down a few sips of water, and his eyes were filled with mist. "This is not a cooking pot roasted on the fire. This is clearly a hot crying pot." !"

Lu Yiming drank a few more pieces of hairy belly and asked calmly: "Is it delicious?"

Gu Huan just planned to curse, but said without any ambition: "It's delicious."

"Do you feel warm after eating spicy food? ?"

He felt it, and the biting coldness was indeed reduced a lot: "Indeed."

"That's it."

In winter, you should eat hot pot.

Gu Huan couldn't refute, watching others eating with gusto, but he could only blow his nose and drool.

He hated, hated why he couldn't eat such delicious food! Really heartbroken!

"Actually, you can put the meat in spicy pot and rinse it in water before eating. The spiciness on the surface will be lighter; or if you want to eat tomato pot, put some millet pepper in your seasoning." Lu Yiming saw that he really couldn't

eat spicy food . , but he was so greedy that he reminded him loudly.

As for the other rabbit who was not very intolerant of spicy food, he pricked up his ears and listened carefully. Was he taking notes in his mind?

He gave someone a piece of beef in a tomato pot, glanced from under him, and said softly: "You can eat some today, but you can't eat it during..."

Pei Xing's hand shook and he almost dropped the meat from his chopsticks. He fell to the ground, his face was surprisingly red even though he hadn't eaten anything spicy.

How, how could your husband say these things at such a time! !

Xie Cheng, who has good hearing, looked at Lu Yiming thoughtfully, then quickly looked away to see someone next to him who was about to pick up the meat in the spicy pot. He raised his hand and used chopsticks to stop him: "You, eat less spicy food. "

Gu Huan was confused. What the hell is this guy? Why should you care about his affairs?

He would do whatever Xie Cheng refused to do! Make him mad!

Xie Cheng was a little helpless. Although he didn't know what this man was up to, if he didn't listen to his advice, he would be the one to suffer, but he might be the one scolded in the end.

As for Lu Yiming, he has hidden merit and fame.

After hot pot, watermelon is a must-have for a refreshing meal. He had prepared it in advance. Of course, watermelons were not sold in the town in winter, but he had seedlings. In what season could they not produce fruit?

[...The master will exploit child labor. 】

【Thousand-year-old ginseng. 】

Lu Yiming, who was very busy some time ago, took time out from school early to go to the mountains behind to find high-end "ingredients" for him. Only a few days later, the vine forgot again.

[Okay, I shut up. 】

Anyway, the owner has let it produce low-grade food for more than a day or two. It is used to it.

Life is not easy, Xiaomiao cries.

Putting the sliced ​​watermelon on the table, Lu Yiming naturally rubbed Pei Xing's slightly stretched belly. Xie Cheng on the side also wanted to follow suit, but someone avoided him.

Gu Huan was lying on the recliner. He was full and could talk about business.

A formula familiar to those who are familiar with it: "Make a price."

However, this time Lu Yiming did not quote directly, but handed him a plan paper: "We will discuss after reading it."

Gu Huan raised his eyebrows lightly, took the plan and sat down Get up and take a closer look. You can be more casual as brothers, but you can't talk about business.

"You mean we'll work together, you'll come up with the formula, I'll provide the manpower, material and financial resources, and the profit will be 28%?" Gu Huan read all the content at a glance and extracted the key points.

Lu Yiming looked directly into his eyes and nodded: "Yes."

Gu Huan thought for a moment and muttered: "What I saw today is not enough."

Lu Yiming also knew this. The hot pot actually looked the same as the dishes he sold before. , but the base material needs some thought, and what is presented now is not enough to make people excited.

He handed him another prepared detailed equity system plan and a hot pot base menu.

However, after reading it, Gu Huan did not directly answer whether it was a success or a failure. Instead, he asked him an unrelated question: "Do you know a person named Wei You?"

The author had something to say: (I started a family and started this business. Now, steamed buns can be put on the agenda~) My

mouth is watering as I write this. The weather has cooled down and it's time to go fishing in the sea on National Day!

I don't know what dishes my friends must order when eating hot pot, but I basically chose the dishes in the article.

The stupid author seems to add a little bit of all kinds of seasonings, except for coriander, which is very mixed. Does anyone have a good recipe to introduce~
