The Pretty Man I Picked Up [Time Travel]

Chapter 145 Daily life

While the sweet potato powder was soaking, Luo Mingxuan continued to talk to Shopkeeper Sun: "There was a family selling roasted sweet potatoes in the town before. I wonder if Shopkeeper Sun knows about it?"

"I know." Shopkeeper Sun nodded, thought about the name of this item carefully and asked, "Is this also made of sweet potatoes?"

"Exactly, this sweet potato flour can be cooked with other ingredients to make dishes, or it can be used as a staple food like pasta. The best thing is to pair it with hot and sour soup base."

Luo Mingxuan looked at the chefs in the back kitchen and asked, "Would you like to try cooking some of these chefs?"

Shopkeeper Sun thought this was a good idea. When several people looked at each other and no one recommended themselves for a while, he pointed out a cook who was good at making soups and a cook who was good at cooking big dishes and asked Luo Mingxuan to tell them about cooking. If you don’t know how to make it, let your own chef do it.

Otherwise, as long as there are ingredients, no one in the restaurant can cook it, and it won't work.

Luo Mingxuan told them in detail, "The dry powder needs to be soaked in warm water for one to two quarters of an hour, boiled or stir-fried, and it can be cooked in about one stick of incense. Its texture is smooth and tough. If it is cooked in soup, it will be sour and spicy." Best taste.”

Then let them play freely.

When it was served, shopkeeper Sun and several chefs tried it together.

They have been restaurant cooks for decades and their cooking skills are superb.

Luo Mingxuan is not afraid that the food cooked by the two chefs will not taste good.

Shopkeeper Sun picked up a chopstick and put it into a small bowl. The vermicelli was crystal clear. He brought the bowl to him and took a bite. The texture was really soft and elastic, and the spicy and sour soup stimulated people's taste buds even more.

Shopkeeper Sun couldn't help but nod his head and praised: "It tastes good."

The main reason is the taste advantage of the ingredients themselves, and the cooking skills of the chefs are just the icing on the cake.

"Come, let's sit down and talk about the price." Shopkeeper Sun put down his bowl after trying it all, and sat down with them in the front hall to discuss.

It was still early at this time, it was not yet noon, and there were very few guests coming to dine. Shopkeeper Sun didn't care about the negotiation environment and said directly: "We don't have to beat around the bush. Let's just talk about the price."

Luo Mingxuan said: "Then let me get straight to the point. As I said before, we are here to negotiate for others. They have already set the price. There is no possibility of bargaining. I hope you know."

"Its price is fifty-five cents per pound."

When shopkeeper Sun heard this, he couldn't help but opened his mouth to make a counteroffer.

Luo Mingxuan continued: "Listen to me, you also know that roasted sweet potatoes were sold for ten cents each in the past. This pound of sweet potato powder requires five pounds of sweet potatoes to make. Fifty-five cents is not a high price. There are still complicated processes that have not yet been calculated.”

"Look at this pound of sweet potato flour. If you buy it for two taels per bowl, you can sell it for five bowls. As for how you price it, I think you won't lose money."

Shopkeeper Sun asked tentatively: "Is it really necessary?"

Luo Mingxuan smiled and shook his head, "It's inevitable. The shopkeeper should think about it carefully."
