Bringing a System to the 70s: Getting Rich by Selling Braised Vegetables

Originally, Jiang Ning was a somewhat famous beautiful owner of a private restaurant. Because she stayed up late reading a novel with the same name as the female supporting character, she unexpecte...

Jiang Ning looked at the ingredients in the kitchen and decided to make a simple dish of shredded pork with fish flavor. The side dishes were also relatively simple, just a little pork, a few fungus, a piece of carrot, and a few chili peppers.

Jiang Ning was checking the ingredients in the kitchen, and Jiang Qiufang was not idle either. In order to make Jiang Ning look uglier, she worked hard to gather all the busy people in the room around the kitchen to watch Jiang Ning cook.

I saw her washing and cutting vegetables skillfully. Her movements were smooth and fluid. She completed all the preparations in a short time.

After the fire was lit, Jiang Ning quickly added the marinated shredded pork into the pot, stir-fried it until the shredded pork turned white, and then put it on a plate for later use. Then she added oil to the pot again and added onions, ginger, and garlic to stir-fry until fragrant. Then she added a spoonful of boiled bean paste and stir-fried it until it turned red. She added the previous vegetables and stir-fried them, then added the fried shredded pork and the soup she made with the seasonings in the kitchen. The aroma came out all at once, and then she quickly stir-fried it evenly and took it out of the pot.

A modified version of fish-flavored shredded pork with good color, aroma and taste is ready.

"Ning girl, what are you cooking? Why does it smell so good?" asked a young wife from the same village.

"This dish is called Fish-Fragrant Shredded Pork, and it goes perfectly with rice."

"Fish-flavored shredded pork? There's no fish in sight. Why is it called that?"

"It smells good, but I don't know what it tastes like."

There was a quarrel all around.

"How about letting me taste it first? I don't know if it tastes normal. It might not be cooked through. After all, this is the first time I've seen Ning cook this way, and it's also the first time I've seen my sister cook. If it's not delicious, please bear with me. Don't blame my sister. She just wants to do her part for the village chief's family."

On the surface, it sounds like my cousin is being considerate, but in fact, she is setting a trap for me.

She knew that her cheap cousin was waiting for her to make a fool of herself, but unfortunately, she couldn't see her make a fool of herself.

After Jiang Qiufang finished speaking, she took out a pair of chopsticks from somewhere, picked up a piece of shredded meat and put it into her mouth with a somewhat ugly expression.

Everyone looked at Jiang Qiufang's sad face and thought that the food Jiang Ning cooked was not tasty.

The people around immediately started whispering, "See, this Ning girl just wants to show off. She even dares to take on such a technical job as cooking."

"Her cousin is still covering for her like this. Now it's hard to end it."

Cui Hongchuan, who was standing by, looked at Jiang Qiufang for a long time without saying anything. Impatient, he snatched the chopsticks from Jiang Qiufang's hand, turned them sideways, picked up a piece of food and put it into his mouth.

Cui Hongchuan felt the dish in his mouth dancing on the tip of his tongue. He had never eaten such delicious food before. This dish did not have any fish foam at all, yet it had the aroma of fish meat. The dish tasted better and better as he ate it. He felt that he could eat four bowls of corn rice with this dish. It was so delicious.

"Daddy, come and try it, it tastes really good." As he said that, he found a new pair of chopsticks and handed them to his father.

When everyone looked at Cui Hongchuan's expression and then at Jiang Qiufang's expression, they seemed to understand something.

Jiang Ning, who was secretly observing Jiang Qiufang, saw his cheap cousin rolling her eyes and trying to hold on while flattering him: "Village Chief, your ingredients are still fresher."

Humph, Jiang Ning must not be allowed to take the spotlight no matter what.

After tasting the dish, the village chief couldn't help but nod his head: "Ning girl, there's clearly no fish in this dish, but how come it still has a fishy fragrance? I finally understand why you named it Fish-Fragrant Shredded Pork."

"This is mainly because Uncle Niu has a complete set of ingredients at home, and it can be made with some simple seasonings."

"Okay, okay, your cooking skills are really good. Tomorrow's wedding banquet depends on you."

Soon Jiang Ning started to get busy in the kitchen.

Generally, banquets in rural areas would consist of a few large dishes for entertaining guests, after all, resources were relatively scarce during that period.

The menu is usually prepared in advance, but because Jiang Ning’s fish-flavored shredded pork was so delicious, the village chief simply added this dish to the menu.

Her main task today is to prepare some time-consuming dishes today so that she won’t be too busy tomorrow.

I saw her wash a few pork shank bones, put them in the pot and start to add ginger slices to cook. After the broth is cooked, whether it is stir-frying or stewing, adding a spoonful of broth will make the taste perfect.

It’s just that cooking the broth takes time. After boiling it over high heat, you have to simmer it over low heat overnight so that it tastes better.

Then he processed the pig offal, which is indispensable for rural banquets. It is cheap and delicious, but if it is not processed properly, it will have a bad smell. So after the worker finished processing the pig offal, Jiang Ning added a little white flour into it and started kneading it. After all, it is not easy to get a little white flour in this era, so he has to save it. After the offal is processed well, he can stir-fry it directly tomorrow.

After she finished the kitchen work, she saw her second brother sitting outside the village chief's house, dozing off little by little while waiting for her. Jiang Ning felt warm in her heart when she saw this.

Sure enough, when we got home everyone was already asleep.

Jiang Ning was about to quietly go to the side room to see how the boss was resting, only to find that he had not rested yet and the light in the room was still on.

Since I haven’t slept yet, I have to make my presence felt.

Because she was really too busy. She was busy harvesting rice in the fields during the day, and had to sew the family's torn clothes under the lamp at night. She didn't even have time to go to the mountains to find the system to catch rabbits and wild boars.

I finally finished work early today and then rushed to the village chief's house to fight for the qualification to be a chef. I have been busy until now and have not had time to see the boss and communicate with him.

After all, human feelings are developed bit by bit through getting along with each other.

She couldn't believe that even after all this, the boss wasn't moved at all.

She knocked gently on the door and called in a low voice: "Chen Yan, you are not asleep, are you? If not, I will come in to see you." After that, Jiang Ning pushed the door open and saw the boss sitting on the bed, not knowing what he was thinking.

Jiang Ning: "Are you feeling better today? Is your headache gone? Are you not feeling nauseous? Did you go for a walk today?"

Chen Yan: "I feel much better today."

Then, it was a lull.

Even the invisible system said politely, "You're being a bit overly concerned. You're a bit of a bootlicker."

Jiang Ning didn't want to pay any attention to it. At present, this golden finger system did not play any role for her. Apart from assigning herself a one million task, it was useless.

"Who's the bootlicker? Besides, what do you know? Only by letting the boss feel that I truly care about him, and then when he regains his memory, my chances of successfully earning a million will increase."

System: "I only know how to lick a dog until I end up with nothing!"

Jiang Ning: "Shut up, you can't spit out ivory from a dog's mouth."
