Chapter 530 The Little Profiteer Returns
Home She ate all the snacks.
As for the new firearms, they were of course sent to Cangcheng for Lin Chunlai to study and replicate.
However, Xiao Nuobao tasted them and found that the spicy tofu strips, rainbow-colored sugar beans, and tomato-flavored potato slices were not as delicious as the first "black and white snacks". She
began to miss the snacks that day, and sometimes she would smack her lips before going to bed, missing the mellow aroma.
And on this day, when the new offerings arrived, she finally got a bag of "black and white snacks".
So the little fat girl hurriedly got up, holding the mysterious little cake, and ran to find the second sister-in-law.
"Second sister-in-law, second sister-in-law, come out and take a look at this!"
She couldn't miss it this time. She
had to let the second sister-in-law learn how to make the snacks, so that she could eat them for a long time!
In the side hall, Jiang Fenghu was biting his wife's bellyband, and he was frightened and quickly let go.
Li Qiqiao pushed his big head away, hurriedly tied the belt of her collar before the little fat girl came in.
"What's wrong, Nuobao." She touched her red face and said hurriedly, "Second sister-in-law is here, are you hungry, do you want second sister-in-law to make you a small stove?"
Jiang Fenghu was not satisfied, and looked at her collar and whispered, "Wife, I also want to eat "small stove", you go and finish it for my sister, and then we can continue."
Li Qiqiao narrowed her eyes, stretched out her thin hands, and squeezed Fenghu so hard that he screamed.
"Go away and be serious. Otherwise, if I can shake the spoon, I can shake you too!"
Little Nuobao ran into the house at this time, not noticing the second sister-in-law's blushing face, and just focused on opening the bag first.
After she took out the snacks, she stuffed a piece for each of the second brother and the second sister-in-law.
"Second brother just said you wanted to eat a small stove? Then you can try this first! Second sister-in-law, you should try it too!" Little Fatty blinked her eyes, looking forward to it.
The two looked at the dark snacks, stunned for a moment, and then slowly put them in their mouths.
Li Qiqiao felt strange, "Nuobao, where did you get this? Why does it look so..."
The next moment, before she could finish her words, she tasted it with a look of surprise, "What kind of snack is this? Why is the taste so special!"
Jiang Fenghu also widened his eyes, "It's delicious. My mouth is full of fragrance after eating it. Why is it so crispy! Where did you buy it, sister? Do you have any more?"
Little Nuobao laughed and danced with joy. Without saying much, he patted his chubby paws and called the whole family to taste it.
Feng Shi didn't think much of it at first, but when she saw this pitch-black thing, she remembered that this was the thing that made her mistakenly think that Chun Ge'er was eating dirt that day!
So she quickly threw it into her mouth to taste it, and soon, the whole family exclaimed.
"This snack is fragrant and tastes really good. Do you know what it's called?" Sun Chunxue finished it in one bite, and then she licked her lips.
Jiang Fengjing ate it in small bites, and couldn't help but exclaimed in amazement, "It's crispy but not hard, crispy but not broken, sister, this is really different from ordinary snacks!"
Madam Zheng also got a piece, and her eyes lit up after eating it.
"This thing is slightly bitter on the outside, but the white frost inside is sweet. Eating either one alone is not the most delicious, but eating them together is a perfect match!"
Feng also nodded vigorously. Judging from the taste of this snack alone, it is not the most delicious in the world.
But the advantage is that it is rare!
The cakes sold outside are either soft or crispy but full of crumbs when bitten. They are not as crispy and solid as this
one. Moreover, the rich taste of this black cake is rare and unique!
Seeing that the whole family liked it, Xiao Nuobao touched the last two pieces in the bag, held back his saliva, and gave them all to his second sister-in-law.
"Second sister-in-law, I got this by chance, but it's a pity that it's not available outside. Can you make the same cake for me?" Xiao Nuobao looked at it greedily.
How could Li Qiqiao refuse? She was just asking for it.
"That's great, Nuobao. You know, my second sister-in-law likes to research some rare foods. The more difficult the better!"
"Just wait patiently. My second sister-in-law will definitely not let you down and figure out the recipe for this snack!" Li Qiqiao stared at the biscuits excitedly, but there was work to do.
Little Nuobao's eyes suddenly sparkled. He hugged Li Qiqiao's arm and gave her a few big smacks with saliva.
"Hehe, my second sister-in-law is the best~"
"Let Nuobao kiss you~"
"Then I'll wait to eat it. Come on, my second sister-in-law!" The little fat girl danced with joy.
The whole family was looking forward to it, not only for the future enjoyment, but also for the snack to be figured out and used to add color to the villa.
After Li Qiqiao put down little Nuobao, she put on her skirt and went to the kitchen to work.
However, she thought further.
This kind of snack is extremely rare on the market. If you can figure out the recipe, you can apply it to other situations and create a precedent for Nanji pastries.
This is the dream of every good cook!
So Li Qiqiao, the super chef, stayed in the kitchen for three consecutive days.
Except for a few trips to the toilet, she was rarely seen coming out. She even slept until after midnight.
Feng was worried that her daughter-in-law was tired, so she came in to check on her from time to time, but it was not easy to stop her.
Feng Hu also felt sorry for his wife and said anxiously, "Mom, if Qiao'er was a mushroom, she would have grown a large area in the kitchen if she stayed like this. It's hard for her, a living person, to stay here."
Although Li Qiqiao worked day and night, things did not go as smoothly as she had imagined.
In three days, she made more than 20 snacks, but none of them tasted right.
Li Qiqiao was so tired that she felt a little exhausted. She stared at the snacks on the plate and felt frustrated for the first time.
When Xiao Nuobao ran to see her, he was shocked. How come the second sister-in-law's ten fingers were all stained black?
"Nuobao, tell me, what ingredients are used to make the black color on these snacks? I have tried black beans, black sesame seeds, black dates, and black rice, but they are all wrong. The taste is far from good!" Li Qiqiao said frustratedly.
Little Nuobao couldn't help but stretch out his little hand, took a few pieces and tasted them, and soon shook his head.
Alas, it really didn't taste like that.
There was no other way. Li Qiqiao could only stop working for the time being and go to the water shop and the villa to check out the business.
Otherwise, she would really get bored if she stayed in the kitchen
any longer. Just because of the snacks, even if she took care of the business, she was still depressed and couldn't help thinking about the snacks.
Xiao Nuobao was a lazy boy and had nothing to do at home, so she simply took Nanny Zheng with her to go to the street to visit all the pastry shops.
She wanted to find some inspiration for her second sister-in-law.
However, the carriage had just left the Jiang Mansion and had not gone far when it almost hit a pedestrian.
The man rushed around, gesticulating with his friend and complaining, without even looking at the road.
"This business trip was really unlucky. It was going well at first, but on the way back, I ran into a small profiteer. That guy fooled me with a few words and made me think that I had lost money on the things I bought, so I sold some of them to him at a low price."
"But who knew that I later found out that he actually used the same rhetoric on several merchants. Among all the caravans returning to Beijing, their caravan was the most pretentious!"
"Not only did I sell him a lot of toys, but also spices like cinnamon, cardamom, and vanilla pods, and I also gave him a lot of cocoa powder that no one wanted. Now that I think about it, it was a big loss!" The man cursed as he spoke.
Xiao Nuobao poked his little head out and his eyes widened.
Merchants returning to Beijing?
Could it be that the caravans that went to the customs city for business have already returned one after another!
Madam Zheng also listened attentively, "Young master, listen quickly, does this mean that your fifth brother and old lady Xiao will be back soon?"
Little Nuobao's eyes were filled with surprise, and he couldn't help but pat his chubby legs.
"It should be about the same. Merchants who go to Guanshi are all in groups. My fifth brother! My old lady Xiao! I really want to drive them crazy. When we get home, I will tell mother as soon as possible!"
Who would have thought that at this time, there was a commotion not far away.
I saw a caravan of more than a hundred people rushing into the crowd and rushing towards this side, attracting a lot of attention!
The one leading the way was a boy who was less than ten years old.
He was baring his big white teeth, riding a double-humped camel, and holding his head high with his chest puffed out to make a conspicuous package!
