Farming Food Tycoon - Chapter 97
After entering May, the snack bar launched the Dragon Boat Festival Zongzi.
People in this world do not have the custom of eating zongzi during the Dragon Boat Festival, but Yu Qingze does. Zongzi, as a special seasonal food in the country in his previous life, is very popular. If you don’t eat zongzi after the Dragon Boat Festival, it always feels wrong and feels that something is missing.
Furthermore, zongzi itself is a very delicious food. People here have never eaten zongzi before, so they can taste it and increase the income of snack bars.
So Yu Qingze did it.
He didn’t make much on the first day, so he made a pot. Red dates and chestnuts, minced meat, red bean paste, and salted egg yolks, there may be fifty to sixty in total, and they are sold out in one morning.
So they did more in the next few days. Different from the glutinous rice chicken, which has only salty mouth, the glutinous rice in the zongzi is firm, with a refreshing aroma of bamboo leaves, and a bit of vegetation. The taste is changeable, and the customers like it very much. Become a hot snack in the snack bar.
In particular, the salted egg yolk flavored rice dumplings have been welcomed by many guests.
The salted duck eggs were made by Yu Qingze after she got married. The method is very simple. Stir in the yellow mud with salt and well water to make a paste, then wrap the clean duck eggs in the mud and put them in a jar. Seal it well. Twenty It can be cooked and eaten after a few days.
Yu Qingze took the opportunity to push out the salted duck eggs, washed them, boiled them, cut them, and sold them well.
The snack bar business is going well, and the two apprentices are also studying hard. Yu Qingze is thinking about waiting for the two apprentices to become a teacher, and he can almost think about the small restaurant.
Now, Brother Le’s cooking skills have improved a lot, and Jiabao is now cooking at home every night. He can cook while learning, and he can cook a few dishes. It should be better in a while.
Then, in what form to open at that time, you have to think about it.
On the third day of May, in the middle of the morning, Tongshan City was overwhelmed by two happy events from the capital.
The results of the Beijing Palace Examination have been released, and Jiang Tianrui, the second young master of the Jiang family in the south of the city, ranks eighth in the top two!
Cai Chenxi, the eldest master of the Cai Mansion, is the champion of high school!
And both of them stayed in Beijing and entered the Imperial Academy!
There were two more Beijing officials in Tongshan City, as well as a top scholar.
This is the hometown of the champion!
Knowing the good news, many businesses have taken actions spontaneously-in order to celebrate this great event, discounts! discount!
Yu Ji Snack Bar also followed the actions of the merchants and made a 20% discount to celebrate the three days.
At this time, the arithmetic knowledge that Jiabao learned during this time will come in handy. The abacus on the left and the sand wooden table on the right are also fast. Yu Qingze took a few glances in the past, and saw that he had not made a mistake, so he was relieved to go busy. You have to prepare a gift and send it to Cai Mansion and Liu Ji!
Because of the actions of the merchants, the city has become more lively these days than usual. Everyone took advantage of the discounts these days and bought all the things they had previously fancy but were not willing to buy. Brother Le and Brother Chang also went to the cloth shop to scan a batch of goods back.
Many merchants saw that there were discounts everywhere in the city, and asked curiously, only then did they realize that it was to celebrate the number one scholar and there was also a Jinshi. The opportunity was rare, and they also saw that they bought some of the things they needed.
Everyone had a few days of ‘shopping festival’ happily, and also the Dragon Boat Festival.
On the seventh day of the seventh day, early in the morning, the sun had just come out, and there was a banging gong on North Street.
“The new county magistrate, Lord Luo, entered the city and took office today. Please kneel and welcome you by then!”
The gong knocker shouted as he knocked, knocking all the way from North City Gate to East Street, from East Street to South Street, and finally to West Street. After knocking on the main road, he went to the county office to inform.
“The new county magistrate is here, I hope it won’t be like the last county magistrate!”
“The new county magistrate’s surname is Luo, I don’t know where it is from? How about being an official?”
“Tell us to join the road and kneel to welcome you. No county magistrate has come here to inform you like this before. Isn’t it enough for your own family to quietly go to the county office?”
“Anyway, we are on the street, confessing a face, so as not to be offended by not knowing it later!”
“That’s true.”
“…”
Yu Qingze and the others were also at the door, listening to the discussion of the guests nearby, Yu Qingze raised his eyebrows, not knowing whether the matter was instructed by the new county magistrate or was arranged by the county government. Either way, it’s too high-profile.
After half an hour, the person who knocked the gong specially knocked on North Street and East Street to remind everyone that these are the two avenues routed by the new county magistrate. Please be sure not to collide.
Afterwards, the people on North Street saw the county Cheng and the county officials rushing to the dock.
After about three quarters of an hour, a group of horses and carriages came from the direction of the North City Gate.
Walking in the forefront was a young man dressed in the uniform of the county magistrate, riding a large laurel horse, led by a guard, and slowly walking towards this side. Behind him was a particularly magnificent carriage, with the curtains open, and inside was sitting a bro with a delicate look in brocade.
The young man on the horse is the new magistrate, and the magistrate in the carriage must be the magistrate.
Behind the carriage, there were two more ordinary carriages and horses, followed by a few carriages of luggage and some servants.
Where the carriages and horses passed, people knelt down to greet them.
The new county magistrate with a smile on his face kept waving to the people on both sides.
When he reached the snack bar a little ahead of the road, Yu Qingze took advantage of everyone’s attention and pulled Le Geer and Jiabao into the store and returned to the room.
Brother Le looked at Yu Qingze strangely.
“Big brother, do you have anything to say?” Jiabao also looked at him curiously, thinking that there was something wrong with him, otherwise he pulled them back.
No matter what happened to Yu Qingze, he simply didn’t want his husband and brother to kneel down.
He coughed slightly, thought for a moment, and said with the excuse: “I suddenly remembered that we can make more snacks for the thank-you banquet of Cai Mansion tomorrow.”
Brother Le said: What kind of snack?
Yu Qingze said: “…the champion cake.” For a while, I couldn’t think of other snacks.
“Zhuangyuan cake? There is this kind of cake? Is it a cake that can only be eaten by a champion? Or can you be a champion if you eat it?” Jiabao asked curiously.
Yu Qingze rubbed Jiabao’s head and said, “It’s just a good meaning to be a champion so easy.”
Jiabao grinned, then said: “Let Xiaohao and Xiaowei eat more!”
“…” Yu Qingze said again: “In the afternoon, I will go to Caifu to discuss with Old Fulang Cai. If he agrees, I will teach Brother Le again that night. Tomorrow, the store will have to work hard for Brother Chang to settle the accounts, and we will all go there. “
Jiabao nodded and asked, “Brother, otherwise I will be back after dinner tomorrow at noon?”
Yu Qingze shook his head and said, “No, you are now the adopted son of Cai Mansion, and you are considered half the owner. You don’t need to go to the kitchen with us tomorrow, you want to help the old man and the others receive guests together, you know?”
Jiabao smiled shyly, scratched his head, and said hesitantly: “But, I’m dumb, I don’t know how to greet guests.”
“It’s okay, the old man told me that day, let you be with Yun Wei. Just follow your usual way, don’t think so much.” Yu Qingze said. Jiabao is very polite in dealing with people and things, so he taught him well.
“Oh, good.” Jia Bao nodded after hearing the words, relieved.
When they finished speaking, the new county magistrate’s carriage had passed.
Brother Chang knocked on the door and said at the door: “Why are you all here? Did you see the new magistrate? Jiabao, there are guests outside to check out.”
“Oh, okay, I’m here.” Jiabao heard that a guest was about to check out, so he quickly responded and went out.
“Let’s go out too.” Yu Qingze took Le brother to his feet and went out, explaining to brother Chang as he walked: “Suddenly remembering something about tomorrow, I’m afraid I might forget it, so talk to the two of them.”
Brother Chang suddenly said, “Oh, I’ll just say why I won’t see you as soon as I turn around.”
After a while, Boss Liu came over.
He dragged Yu Qingze to the backyard and said mysteriously to Yu Qingze: “My brother-in-law’s visitor passed me something, saying that this new county magistrate has a lot of background, so we should pay more attention to it when we meet it in the future. Don’t bump into it, people will be grabbed by the time.”
When Yu Qingze heard the words, he curiously asked: “What’s the background?”
Boss Liu shook his head and replied: “This is not clearly stated. It is only the son of a high official in the capital who came here to save his qualifications. It is estimated that he will be transferred back to the capital in two years.”
Yu Qingze uttered a loud voice and said, “That’s it, I know, thank you brother!”
“You’re polite with me. By the way, you taught me that sour bamboo shoots can be eaten, can you make snail noodles and Guilin rice noodles?”
Yu Qingze nodded and said: “Then push it out. Be careful not to mix the snails with the noodles, it will cause stomach trouble after eating.”
“Okay, I wrote it down.”
“…”
