Qi Yunxiao, a businessman who travels frequently, thought about the scene and nodded.
Many times, when it was hot, it was difficult to bring food, so I could only bring some dry biscuits. When I was in the middle of nowhere, it was hard to swallow even dry biscuits.
If you spread a little of this chili sauce on it, the flavor is indeed very refreshing.
"It would taste even better if we added some minced meat or something," Qi Yunxiao suggested.
Shen Qingyu clapped her hands: "Oh! That's what I thought too! Pork, chicken, anything is fine!"
They met eyes, both smiling.
From a business perspective, Qi Yunxiao is a very good partner who never cheats him.
Because of his resentment towards Qi Yunxiao, he abandoned such a good partner and went to cooperate with Qi Han, who was closer to him.
This situation, where we ended up in such a passive position, can be considered a lesson learned.
Sure enough, you can't let your emotions get the better of you, or you'll lose money.
"Actually, working with you is quite good," Shen Qingyu praised sincerely.
Qi Yunxiao could feel the sincerity in this, and he was both surprised and delighted. Then a big smile spread across his face: "If you're willing to try trusting me more, I'll give you a surprise in return."
Shen Qingyu smiled and nodded: "You're the children's father. You wouldn't betray me even if someone else did. I trust you."
Qi Yunxiao felt a moment of disappointment, but silently promised himself: It's not just because I'm the children's father... I won't cheat you again.
"If the chili sauce you make in the future tastes like this, how much do you plan to sell it for per pound?"
Shen Qingyu shook her index finger: "No, no, no, we don't sell by weight, we sell by the bamboo tube. Do you still remember the bamboo tubes you used to pack soup and dishes at Guiyunlou?"
Qi Yunxiao understood immediately: "Bamboo tubes are indeed good. They don't require much capital, are readily available, and are easy to make."
"Yes, use this to hold it. Then plug the end with a cork."
"Of course, in the end, we also need to calculate the weight. After calculating, it can be divided into half a jin per bamboo tube and one jin per bamboo tube."
"Without meat, it's thirty coins for half a catty, or fifty coins for a catty?"
"With meat, it's fifty coins for half a catty, or one hundred coins for a catty?"
"The cost of chili peppers is not high. Chili peppers cost five coins a pound, plus labor costs, rapeseed oil, garlic cloves... the cost of one pound of chili sauce will not exceed twenty coins."
Qi Yunxiao thought for a moment and nodded: "Many people who can travel long distances are willing to spend money. We really should think more about this aspect."
Shen Qingyu laughed: "Actually, stir-frying minced meat with pickled mustard greens is also very good. It doesn't spoil easily and the flavor is great. There's also a chili sauce with a slightly sour taste that doesn't spoil easily either..."
The sauce for bibimbap is always ever-changing.
However, the 21st century has standardized production, while this era is vastly different.
Some people cook it well, while others don't.
This is related to cooking skills, and also to the family's financial resources.
Perhaps because the two had gotten into a good conversation, Qi Yunxiao hesitated for a moment and asked Shen Qingyu, "Have you ever thought about whether you should turn these foods you make into a brand or something?"
Shen Qingyu suddenly realized: "Just like Guiyun Tower?"
Qi Yunxiao nodded.
Guiyunlou is the number one catering brand in this dynasty, with branches in every prefecture!
Local gentry and wealthy families considered it an honor to host banquets at Guiyunlou.
“Your idea is good… What do you think would be a suitable name?” Shen Qingyu asked as she thought about it seriously.
Qi Yunxiao blurted out, "Chen Ji?"
People usually use their surname as their courtesy name.
Shen Qingyu shook her head decisively: "It's not like I'm the only one with the surname Chen. Shen Qingyao also has the surname Chen!"
Qi Ji?
That won't work either, since Shen Qingyao's husband's family also has the surname Qi.
"Then... Yu Ji?" Qi Yunxiao asked again.
"You mean, the 'Yu' in Shen Qingyu?" This time, Shen Qingyu did not deny it outright.
Qi Yunxiao nodded.
Shen Qingyu thought about it carefully and said, "Okay! Let's call it Yu Ji."
The name of a shop was decided that simply and clearly!
Unexpectedly, Shen Qingyu adopted his suggestion, and Qi Yunxiao felt a little lighter. He couldn't help but reveal a little more of his thoughts.
"Actually, Guiyunlou's shops are too big, and it's a pity that they don't sell braised meat and bean sprouts if you're far away..."
Shen Qingyu, understanding the implied meaning, asked, "You mean you want me to supply braised meat and bean sprouts to Guiyunlou, which supplies various prefectures and cities?"
Before Qi Yunxiao could nod, Shen Qingyu shook her head first: "Bean sprouts definitely won't do."
Qi Yunxiao understood and asked, "What about the braised meat?"
Shen Qingyu fell into deep thought.
The secret to braised meat lies in the braising liquid.
Judging from Shen Qingyao's situation, it's not appropriate to ask someone to take this spice packet away, so the only option is to make the braising liquid yourself and then take it away in a bamboo tube...
Think about the packaged brine in those instant rice noodles of the 21st century...
This method will work!
Shen Qingyu laughed: "I can provide the braising liquid for the braised meat. It's salty and won't spoil in a short time. We can send it to various places in bamboo tubes or earthenware jars. As long as it doesn't spill, it can supply all of Guiyunlou."
"They just add a certain amount of water to a pot of brine and cook a certain number of kilograms of braised meat, and there's no problem."
Qi Yunxiao laughed as well: "If that's the case, your brine isn't cheap."
Shen Qingyu nodded with a smile: "Of course."
Ordinary pig head meat and offal are not suitable for banquets, but because they are cooked in braising liquid, they can not only be served at banquets, but also be sold at high prices.
The reason for its soaring value lies in the braising liquid.
Can this brine be sold at a lower price?
"Your idea is good. I'll have the manager of Guiyunlou Restaurant in Tongxin Prefecture come over and send some pottery jars from Tongxin Prefecture..."
