Break the old path and open a new one.
The new path has already opened up the market; it's a path to wealth with a secret formula, where production and sales can be determined at will.
Yu Fugui and the others were extremely excited, and their perception of Xiao Cheng's social status had been refreshed to the highest level.
Overnight, the situation in Nanshi changed dramatically.
They truly witnessed today what it means to turn one's hand into clouds and rain.
Amidst the shocked gazes of those around her, Bai Lu spoke again: "We will provide a supply channel for chestnuts. After you have completed your studies, Acheng and I will take you to the countryside to discuss long-term chestnut procurement with the villagers."
"You don't need to worry about the quantity of chestnuts. Even if there are a hundred more people setting up stalls, it will be enough. There will be no shortage of goods before the off-season sales end."
With high-quality and stable supply channels secured, Yu Fugui and his associates had no worries whatsoever.
They had been curious about where Bailu's chestnuts came from, since they were supplied so much every day without ever running out of stock, and every chestnut was plump and without any bad ones.
Unfortunately, they didn't know how to make roasted chestnuts, so even if they did, it wouldn't have mattered, and they didn't really want to investigate further.
Two of the three electric chestnut roasting machines in the kitchen were dismantled by Xiao Cheng yesterday afternoon and moved to the woodshed.
Wang Cuihua was repeatedly rebuffed and fell silent.
I didn't earn a single penny; in fact, I lost money.
Bai Lu and Xiao Cheng were called out twice, and whether it was a tacit understanding or just a tacit connection, their eyes met as soon as they looked up.
Everyone suddenly realized why the sugar and chestnuts got burnt as they fried them together.
It feels like I'm working for Bailu for free.
She figured Bailu wouldn't care about such a small return gift, so she felt at ease not to send one.
Chen Dafu thought her brain was just for fun. "Didn't you watch TV? Can't you understand human language? Bai Lu said that the people who are trying to overturn the stalls are too busy to pay attention to us. What are you trying to overturn? If you want to overturn the stalls, then overturn your own head. Don't ask such brainless questions all day long."
The heartbreaking thing is that the money they earned from selling roasted chestnuts with Bailu during this period was not enough to pay their tuition fees, and they had to use their own savings to make up the difference.
"Those coarse gravels that were filtered out when the house was built," Yu Fugui recognized them at a glance.
"Where did this sand come from? I feel like I've seen it somewhere before." Wang Cuihua thought hard but still couldn't remember.
Wang Cuihua blushed with anger: "You're the one who can't learn it!"
The remaining machine is for Bailu to roast chestnuts this morning to supply Wen Xiuyun.
Bai Lu's class not only guarantees you'll learn how to make roasted chestnuts, but also guarantees you'll open up the market for them and make a steady profit.
Wen Xiuyun nodded in agreement: "That's right. Smart people together have common topics and can support each other to go further. Bai Lu and Xiao Cheng are a perfect match."
"So sand is needed too, no wonder..."
Fortunately, when they arrived at Xiao Cheng and Bai Lu's home, their trust was not betrayed, as Xiao Cheng had already resolved all the thorny issues.
The couple, being worldly-wise, brought two boxes of the best-selling specialty pastries from the hundred cities as a gift for Bailu.
The two empty stoves have been returned to the large woks that were manually stirred before the electric stir-fry machine was installed.
It's still a paste.
However, the thought of learning a skill to make money filled Meng Youliang and the others with renewed anticipation amidst their initial trepidation.
It turns out that sand needs to be added during the stir-frying process.
The boiled chestnuts were a success, but they lacked the perfectly caramelized aroma and lingering aftertaste of roasted chestnuts.
Wang Cuihua glared angrily at Chen Dafu.
When they received a brief notification from Bai Lu about selling her son's tutoring services and how much the tuition would be, everyone, trusting Xiao Cheng and Bai Lu, pooled their money without asking any further questions.
Wang Cuihua lived next door to Xiao Cheng's house and often saw Bai Lu receiving gifts, which made her feel envious and jealous.
Zhang Huiru and her husband run a fruit shop together and have no plans to open a branch yet. But since the couple has come here, they naturally have to tell Bai Lu. If they can learn together, they can; if not, Zhang Huiru can learn alone.
Since Bai Lu has already set a precedent with Wen Xiuyun and Yu Fugui, she will naturally not show favoritism and lose people's hearts.
No matter how many times the proportions were changed, or how many different types of maltose, white sugar, brown sugar, cane sugar, or any other edible sugar available on the market were used, it was all in vain.
Wang Cuihua's little scheme was exposed, and she choked for a moment before finding words to retort: "Brother Xiao Cheng is also very smart."
He accepted the gift and agreed.
They can just pay the money and learn the skills without worry.
After glaring at him, she instantly looked at Xiao Cheng with admiration: "Brother Xiao Cheng is indeed the most amazing. He can do anything."
"Alright, everyone, come with me to the kitchen." Bai Lu started teaching after collecting the tuition fees.
While explaining the precautions for selecting sand to everyone, Bai Lu lit the firewood in the stove.
This time, everyone kept their promise from when they took away the roasted chestnuts last time. Each person brought a lot of fruit and local specialties for Bailu, which they put into the main house when they arrived. Only Wang Cuihua brought nothing.
Only Wang Cuihua, who was completely bewildered, had a question: "What if the stall gets overturned again?"
Meng Youliang and the others did not hesitate and immediately paid to sign up. Being even a second late would be disrespectful to making big money.
Meng Youliang nodded and said, "This should be sand from the riverbank, which has been smoothed by the water."
A moment later, one of them, seemingly calm, and the other, feigning calm, both looked away in unison.
After paying the tuition, Wu Fangli smiled knowingly and said, "That's right! Xiao Cheng is amazing, and Bai Lu is smart. They're a match made in heaven!"
"If you can't even learn from on-site instruction, you might as well go home and farm." Chen Dafu said bluntly.
Now, not only is he blessed with the opportunity to learn the recipe, but under the guidance of Bailu and Xiaocheng, he can also negotiate with the villagers for a long-term and stable procurement partnership that will not be interrupted even if competitors appear. This is undoubtedly a double blessing.
Their new house was recently built, and I have a deep impression of it.
After lighting the firewood, pick up the spatula and start stirring the sand in the pot: "The sand should be of uniform size so that the chestnuts can be heated evenly. If the sand is too different in size, some chestnuts will be cooked while others are still half-cooked, which is a failure."
Seeing that everyone else had already paid their fees to register, Wang Cuihua reluctantly pulled out her money from her pocket with a pained expression: "I only have this three thousand yuan left of my entire savings. Bailu, you have to teach me how to make sugar-roasted chestnuts..."
"That's right."
Bai Lu handed the spatula to Chen Dafu, who was nearby: "The sand should be smooth and even. Sand that is too rough or broken cannot be used. When pouring the syrup, it will stick to the dirt. As soon as you put the chestnuts in, they will stick to the surface of the chestnuts, which will cause the chestnuts to have different colors when they come out of the pot. They will look dirty and are easy to burn, which will make people lose their appetite."
Everyone quickly took out their notebooks to jot down the key points.
Xiao Cheng was originally going to the city, but before he left, he saw Chen Dafu struggling to learn how to fry sand, and Bai Lu was about to teach him. He immediately turned around.
"I'll do it."
