Chapter 213: Selling both craftsmanship and art!

Let the braised beef cool down for a while.

Su Chen took the knife and cut along the grain of the beef.

Soon, the beef was cut into strips of even thickness.

Each piece is full of the rich aroma of the marinade and the firm texture of the beef itself.

Heat oil in a pan.

When the oil is 70% hot, pour the beef strips into the pan.

“Sizzle…”

The hot oil meets the beef strips instantly, and the surface of the beef strips quickly tightens under the action of high temperature, and the color becomes burnt brown.

Five minutes later, Su Chen added the Sichuan peppercorns and dried chili shreds that had been drained and stir-fried them together.

The aroma became stronger.

Sprinkle some chili powder to make the finished product more colorful, brighten the color and add a bit of spiciness.

When the dish is about to be removed from the pan, add MSG, sugar and salt and stir-fry quickly to blend them together.

Finally, this cold beef dish is out of the pot.

Of course, you can also add some sesame seeds and cumin powder. Su Chen decided to keep this for later and let customers add it according to their taste.

We have to sell a hundred servings a day, so this one pot is not enough.

"Butler Ding, please take some more beef out of the box and blanch it. I need to make more today."

Upon hearing this, Butler Ding nodded and went to work quickly.

He also casually asked the nanny to cook some food and look after Nuonuo, and never let the child go hungry.

…

Wait until 12:30 noon.

Even though the remaining cold beef had not been prepared yet, Su Chen moved it all to the food cart and prepared to set up the stall.

In fact, he wasn't even sure if he could sell a hundred copies a day.

I can only try it first.

In case it’s sold out, the ingredients are available and it’s convenient to cook on the spot.

"Mr. Su, why don't we go and help you this week!"

Butler Ding was moving beef, chopped chili peppers, seasonings, spices and other ingredients onto the dining cart, and asked with concern when he looked at the portion.

After all, this cold beef needs to be braised, cut, fried and packaged. It's a lot of work and it's quite hard for one person.

No time to say more.

Su Chen casually ate a few mouthfuls of rice and drank some soup while speaking.

"It's okay. I still have to clean up the house. I'll take Nuonuo out to the stall first. It's close anyway. I'll call you later when I'm too busy."

Seeing that Su Chen had made up his mind, Butler Ding didn't say much.

I was just about to send him and Nuonuo out.

Unexpectedly, Su Chen just took a step forward and then turned back.

Return to the room.

He changed into the clothes designated by the system, tied a white sheepskin scarf on his head, and held the suona in his hand.

ah???

This...what kind of style is this?

Vest, black pants, red ribbon, headscarf, this is what young people are wearing now?

As soon as he appeared in the yard, Su Chen met the stunned gaze of Butler Ding.

"Haha, I just want to go out and play the suona and change into something appropriate for the occasion."

Su Chen laughed dryly and explained awkwardly.

Dressed up like this, she took out her suona and played it, ticking.

I feel like this is no longer just a street stall, but performance art.

I don’t know what Butler Ding would think after hearing this.

Butler Ding didn't say anything yet.

But Nuonuo on the side spoke first, "Dad, are you playing a dress-up game?"

"Ha ha!"

This made both adults laugh.

Butler Ding knows that he is old and can't keep up with the trend, but as long as the boss has fun, that's all that matters.

Inspired by the little girl, Su Chen thought that this could also be understood as a cosplay.

However, as fun as it is, you still need to be thick-skinned enough.

Someone like him feels so uncomfortable in front of acquaintances. How can he set up a stall outside later?

The father and daughter left.

Butler Ding returned to the house and saw the aunts still cleaning the kitchen. He went over to help and sighed.

"Mr. is so hardworking. He's been busy all morning for the new week and rushed to set up his stall without even eating a bite of food."

"They still don't let us help. It's really too hard."

In Butler Ding's opinion, since Su Chen is so rich and capable at such a young age, he could definitely live an easier life.

But he still goes there to set up a stall and do business every week.

Although business is good, it is really hard work.

After hearing this, the aunts all nodded in agreement.

In their entire lives, they have only seen one person as rich as their boss who works such hard.

"People at different levels have different ideas. Mr. has his own ideas and pursuits, so it's normal that we can't understand his feelings."

Aunt Wu can understand a little.

Just like pursuing a dream, all efforts are made willingly.

How can outsiders empathize with me?

Su Chen drove the food truck and soon arrived at the troupe's performance venue.

He didn't dare go directly to the stage.

The main thing is that I have to play the suona according to the system requirements. If I accidentally disturb the troupe and get chased out and beaten, I will be in big trouble.

So, Su Chen was quite tactful and stopped at an open space that was a little far away from the stage but within the range specified by the system.

While packing up, Su Chen was also thinking about what the appropriate selling price would be.

Although he is not short of money, he does not want to do business at a loss, so he simply sells the beef strips by weight.

Just set the price at 88 yuan per catty.

This price is indeed not low compared to the roadside stalls in the village.

However, what he sells is 100% genuine beef, and this time he is selling both his skills and his art.

Anyway, Su Chen personally thinks it's worth it.

I have almost finished packing my things.

He placed cumin powder, chili powder, gloves, packaging bags and other items on the table and took out a small white board to write down the prices.

"Cold beef: 88 yuan/jin, with suona music every 20 minutes."

All preparations are done.

Su Chen breathed a sigh of relief.

Before he could study his newly acquired suona skills, he had to think for a while about what kind of song he should play.

The suona has a high-pitched, loud and clear sound with strong penetrating power. It is generally used to express warm and jubilant atmospheres and majestic and magnificent scenes.

Boasting about 'the road to heaven is wide and broad'?

Or "Hero Song"? "Blue Lotus"?

Oh, forget it, I’ll just have to improvise later!

It was not until the stall was officially opened that Su Chen discovered it.

Huh? Why isn't there any singing at all?

Driven by curiosity.

He held Nuonuo's hand and trotted to the theater entrance, then looked up at the sign.

Oh no!

There are sessions at 3pm, 5pm and 7pm today, but there is no session at 1pm.

It's not time for the performance yet, no wonder the stage is empty.

It was noon and there were very few people passing by.

Occasionally, two old ladies would pass by slowly, staring at Su Chen's unique look.

Then the corners of his mouth drooped and he spoke incoherently in a dialect that he couldn't understand.

Su Chen reflexively touched the mask on his face. Fortunately, he had the foresight to wear a mask when he got off the car.
