The sweet potato leaves I picked today are all incredibly tender.
Blanch the washed sweet potato leaves in boiling water for ten seconds, then immediately remove them from the water.
The pork fat in the pot has been rendered into pork cracklings.
Don't remove the lard and its cracklings. While turning the heat up high, put the blanched sweet potato leaves into the pot, stir-fry quickly, add local bean paste, and sprinkle with minced garlic.
This dish absolutely requires high heat and plenty of oil, and it's best to stir-fry it with lard and pork cracklings to fully bring out the charm of the sweet potato leaves.
Oh my god!
The taste is something you have to experience to know.
As expected, sweet potato leaves, as the only vegetarian dish today, commanded a high price among the many meat dishes.
Sweet potato leaves are surprisingly delicious!
Without exception, all five gentlemen were amazed by today's stir-fried sweet potato leaves, praising them repeatedly.
Actually, to be precise, every single dish on this table today received unanimous praise!
Even Wei Jiahong ate so much that he didn't care about his image anymore, and even fought with his own father for food.
If Wei Jiahong felt only regret and sadness after learning that Fang Yan was not single;
So now, he feels very regretful and sad, and at the same time, he is extremely envious and jealous of Zhang Jizhou.
After all, being able to eat such delicious food every day is no ordinary blessing.
Having eaten and drunk their fill, the old men, who had already sampled the beef jerky and pork jerky, started placing orders with Fang Yan again...
"Xiao Fang, do you still have any beef jerky? I'd like five jin (2.5 kg)."
Fang Yan: ...
"Grandpa Han, beef is so hard to buy. The one I bought this time is almost all used up. There's really no more beef jerky."
"ah?"
Grandpa Han was a little disappointed, but he also knew that cattle were an important source of labor.
They are not usually slaughtered easily.
"What about the pork jerky? Can we make more pork jerky?"
"That's fine."
Although it is not yet possible for every household to eat pork every day.
However, pork is relatively easier to buy than beef. "But you may need to provide your own meat coupons."
Money is not the issue, the key is the tickets!
She had saved up quite a few meat coupons, but she used up a lot of them during the Mid-Autumn Festival.
She uses some herself regularly, and this time she also used up quite a bit to buy pork knuckles and other items for Captain Liu and the others.
After all that, Fang Yan had very few monthly passes left.
"No problem, I'll go back and collect them, and I'll give you the tickets at your stall tomorrow."
The old men all said that the issue of the hostages was not a big problem.
At their age, who doesn't have a few younger relatives working for them?
Grab the meat tickets from their hands, and there you have meat tickets.
"Give me all your meat coupons, and leave the meat coupons for next month to me."
Sure enough, Old Master Wei immediately tried to snatch all of Wei Jiahong's hostages from his hands.
“That’s all,” Wei Jiahong replied leisurely, and before the old man could explode, he looked at Fang Yan again, “I’ll take another twenty catties of this pork jerky.”
"What do you need so much pork jerky for?" Old Master Wei was dumbfounded.
This kid wants so much pork jerky, we might have to smuggle meat coupons from him.
He instinctively clutched his pocket tightly.
“The last inspection team that came ate the mooncakes made by Xiao Fang and kept thinking about them. They asked me several times where I bought them and if I could help them buy some more. I also sent them some pork jerky so they wouldn’t keep asking about them.”
Before retiring, Mr. Han was in charge of attracting investment.
He knew about the previous inspection team.
Upon hearing this, he couldn't help but ask, "Was the last inspection team here to conduct on-site inspections of the investment environment?"
"Yes, the investment projects are still under negotiation."
Upon hearing this, Fang Yan thought to herself, "If I send those pork jerky again, maybe the investment project will be finalized."
I never imagined that one day, the food I made could play such a great role in the development of the county.
She immediately nodded, "Sure, do you know their tastes? I also need to be able to make different flavors according to their different preferences, such as sweet and spicy, numbing and spicy, non-spicy, salty and savory, numbing and savory, and so on."
Hearing about so many flavors they had never tried before, the five old men swallowed hard.
Wei Jiahong looked surprised, "Pork jerky can be made in so many different flavors?"
"Of course, we can make all kinds of snacks such as cakes and biscuits, and we can make all kinds of different flavors. Before I joined the army, I could produce them in unlimited quantities."
Fang Yan suddenly saw a business opportunity and immediately seized it.
The baked goods and snacks she makes are absolutely delicious.
But people nowadays are still struggling to make ends meet. No matter how well you make these non-staple foods, they still can't afford them. After all, they need to make sure they have three meals a day, right?
Therefore, apart from the five old men, Fang Yan has not been able to develop any other customers in the non-staple food sector.
Now, Wei Jiahong's words gave her an instant business opportunity—she could cooperate with Wei Jiahong!
They need to give gifts to others, but currently there are relatively few pastries and sweets on the market.
She can help them explain this problem.
In this way, she could earn some more money before joining the army, giving herself a strong sense of security.
"I can make all kinds of candies if you need them. If you're giving them as gifts, I can also provide beautiful packaging so you'll definitely be able to present them well."
With the business opportunity right in front of her, Fang Yan spared no effort in recommending herself.
With the end of the year fast approaching, gift boxes are essential for giving gifts to relatives and friends during the Chinese New Year. Various organizations also need them to provide New Year's gifts for their staff.
Fang Yan's culinary skills are indeed superb; not only is the packaging high-end and the taste excellent, but the price is also very reasonable.
"Give me a price list, and I'll take it to them for an evaluation." Wei Jiahong thought this was a feasible idea.
Fang Yan: "Okay, I'll send you the price list tomorrow."
When it comes to making money, you have to be quick and efficient.
Otherwise, all the money will just disappear.
Wei Jiahong hesitated for a moment, but couldn't help asking her, "Are you short of money?"
Fang Yan shook her head, "I don't need it."
To add, "No one would turn down money earned honestly, right?"
"right!"
The old men agreed in unison, "Young Fang is right. Who would complain about having too much money if it was earned honestly?"
They were afraid that Fang Yan didn't want to earn this money.
As long as Fang Yan wants to earn this money, they will be able to eat all kinds of delicious food in the future.
"Xiao Fang, when you make the price list, please give us a copy too. It's almost Chinese New Year, and we need to give gifts to our relatives and friends. If you find anything suitable, we'll buy it from you."
The five old men also gave Fang Yan some advice.
Seeing how booming the business was, Fang Yan secretly decided that no matter what Zhang Jizhou's arrangements were, she had to make a profit from this before going to join the army!
