Chapter 474 New Products
After Zhou Chengsen sold the fish, he took more than 73 yuan and rode his bicycle back to the village carrying a bucket of water.
When he got home, he first gave the bucket of fish to Zhou's mother, and then asked, "Has Kang Ping's brother Kang An not gone out to work yet?"
After the Chinese New Year, some people plan to go out to work after the Qingming Festival, or after going out, they feel that money is not so easy to make outside and stay in the city to find a job.
The last time Zhou Chengsen went home to tidy up the rice fields, he happened to see Zhou Kangan and chatted with him for a few words. He heard that he planned to wait until after Qingming Festival to go out to look for a job.
Mother Zhou: "Yes, your second aunt is planning to find him a wife, but he hasn't picked one yet, so he just stays at home and helps the family plant rice seedlings. He won't go out until after Qingming Festival."
Zhou Chengsen said, "I'll go find Kang An and ask him to help me go out to sea. Has Yongjian not gone out to work yet?"
Zhou's mother was stunned for a moment: "Yes, she hasn't left yet. Are you planning not to invite your uncle and his family?"
With the children around, Zhou Chengsen didn't say much, just said: "We are planning to invite Kang An and Yong Jian to go out to sea to photograph squids at night. Li Qingmin and his team will go out to sea during the day."
But sooner or later he will replace Li Qingmin and others.
Of course, it would be best for Li Xiuxian to do this.
When Zhou's mother heard this, she immediately said, "That's great! That's great!"
I spent so much money to buy a boat, but I still have to hire people to do the work, and I don’t make much money every day.
Although her son was not anxious, she felt anxious for him!
Zhou Chenglei glanced at his second brother, then continued to plane wood and make drying nets.
His second brother knew exactly what to do and could definitely handle it.
Zhou Chengsen went out to invite people to go out to sea at night.
At this time, Jiang Xia was in the old house trying small squid with He Xinghuan, Aunt Fen, and great-grandmother.
They spent half an afternoon making three flavors of squid.
Jiang Xia tried all three flavors of squid and asked He Xinghuan, Aunt Fen, and Grandma, "Which flavor do you think is the best?"
Aunt Fenn: "I think spicy tastes better."
He Xinghuan: "I also like spicy food, the sauce-flavored ones don't seem to have enough flavor."
Grandma: "The spicy ones are delicious, the sauce ones are a bit fishy, and the sweet and sour ones are too sour. They make my teeth sour."
Jiang Xia then asked He Xinghuan and Aunt Fen: "Do you think it's too sour?"
“A little.”
Aunt Fenn: "I don't like sour food, how about making a sweet and spicy one?"
Jiang Xia smiled and said, "You can give it a try."
Jiang Xia likes to eat sour food recently, and he doesn’t find it sour, but everyone thinks that it is natural to make some adjustments.
Sweet food in the south and salty food in the north. People in the south do prefer sweet food more.
So they adjusted the ratio of the sauce to the sweet and sour sauce, and started to make another pot of the sauce and sour and spicy sauce with adjusted taste, and also made a pot of sweet and spicy sauce.
This time it tasted much better. The three flavors of squid received unanimous praise, and the sweet and spicy one was also delicious.
It was just time to go home from school. Zhou Jie, Zhou Zhou and the brothers Guangzongyaozu smelled the delicious food and ran into the old house. They couldn't stop eating.
Jiang Xia asked them which one was better, and the children gave different answers. Except for Zhou Wenguang who said the spicy one was better, the other children said some said the sauce-flavored one was better, some said the sweet and sour one was better, and some said the sweet and spicy one was better.
Jiang Xia said to He Xinghuan and the others, "Then make all four flavors in the first batch and see which flavors have the most audiences. Then make more of that flavor in the future."
The three of them laughed and said, "Okay!"
Jiang Xia: "Starting tomorrow, I will buy a large number of small squids. Let's start making a big profit!"
He Xinghuan moved her lips when she heard this, but in the end she didn't say anything. Forget it, she would go talk to Jiang Xia tonight.
After determining the ratio of seasonings, several people put the prepared squid into bags and vacuum-packed them into bags.
After everything was packed, Jiang Xia said, "Auntie Fen, take a bag of each flavor home for your family and children to try and see which flavor the children like."
Jiang Xia directly packed three plates and took them home for his family to try.
Jiang Xia put three plates of squid with three different flavors in the kitchen and said to Zhou's mother, "Mom, try the new product and give me some advice."
Then she took two sets of bowls and chopsticks, picked up two for each flavor, gave one bowl to Zhou's mother, and walked out with the other bowl and came to Zhou Chenglei.
Jiang Xia picked up a sweet and spicy one and gave it to Zhou Chenglei to try.
“How does it taste?”
Zhou Chenglei: “It’s delicious.”
Then Jiang Xia picked up another one with sauce flavor.
“Which one tastes better?”
Zhou Chenglei: “They are all delicious.”
"Which flavor do you prefer?"
Zhou Chenglei: “The second one.”
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
…
Finally, Jiang Xia picked up the spicy one.
Zhou Chenglei didn't wait for Jiang Xia to ask and said directly: "This is the most delicious."
"Then make more spicy and sauce-flavored ones. Call the Marquis later and ask him to come over tomorrow. I plan to buy a lot of small squid from fishermen and specialize in making these small squid for the next two months."
If she can't go to the Guangzhou Trade Fair, she will take advantage of the squid season to do something big.
It would be nice to make a little money, otherwise she was worried that she wouldn't have enough to pay the final payment for the boat.
Everyone knows that squid is valuable, and it can be sold at a higher price. You can make at least one to one and a half dollars per pound of processed squid.
Zhou Chenglei looked at her and said, "Okay, then we won't go to the Guangzhou Trade Fair."
Jiang Xia glared at him, too lazy to pay attention to him, and turned back to the kitchen.
Zhou Chenglei smiled, finished whittling the wood, and went to make a phone call.
For dinner, Zhou's mother stir-fried small squid with chili peppers, blanched another portion, fried a plate of white mullet, and made a mixed fish stew and a dish of stir-fried sweet potato leaves with garlic.
It was already past six o'clock when the family finished their meal.
Zhou Chenglei and Zhou Chengsen prepared a set of tools for illuminating squids. After Zhou Chengxin arrived, the three brothers took their people out to sea together.
Today, Zhou Chenglei also called Zhou Guodong and several brothers to go out to sea together.
The Zhou family's four boats plus Zhou Guodong's family's one boat, a total of five boats went out to sea together.
The fishermen in the village all knew that Zhou Chenglei had lured squid with lights, so there were a lot of people going out to sea tonight.
Zhou Chenglei went to the same sea area as last night. It was a little farther, but there were fewer fishing boats there, so he could catch more small squid.
Of course, this is the ideal situation. As for the reality, it depends on whether there are squids in that area of sea.
It's all about luck anyway.
There are squids in the sea, they will come when you shine the light.
There are no squids in the sea, and even if you put a lamp in the water, it will not come out.
*After Zhou Chenglei went out to sea, He Xinghuan and his grandmother came over.
Usually after dinner, great-grandmother would come over and watch TV when she knew that their family would not go out to sea the next day.
If they had known that their family was going out to sea tomorrow, grandma and the others would not have come over so as not to disturb their rest.
He Xinghuan said to Jiang Xia, "Xiao Xia, you don't have to split the money you earn from selling small fish and squid with me in the future."
Jiang Xia looked over and asked, "What's wrong? Do you have any plans?"
Zhou's mother also looked over.
