Chapter 218 Benefits of Potatoes
Aunt Zhang quickly nodded and said a few words with a smile.
She didn't want to go back to Yan Village anymore. It was a village for exiles, and she didn't like any of the people there. She hated them.
Mao Dexing was upset, "Get out! Useless thing!"
Luo Shuyu ran away in a hurry. As long as she didn't have to contact the Zhao family again, it would be fine. Every one of the people in the Zhao family was too scary.
Mao Dexing smashed the teacup in anger.
Damn it! He must have become a laughing stock in Gaolian County!
Mao Dexing, who had never been defeated, was unwilling to give up. For a moment, countless conspiracies and tricks flashed through his mind, but in the end he was disappointed to find that none of them were useful.
There are so many villagers in Bajiaozhai that even his brother-in-law doesn't dare to provoke them easily, let alone him?
There is also a mysterious boss behind the scenes, who he still hasn't figured out.
The best way is to control the Zhao family, but how?
Mao Dexing sneered grimly: This matter is not over yet!
The potato vermicelli has been prepared. Zhao Liya dictated and Shu Yan started making it. At noon that day, everyone ate steaming hot and sour noodles.
Carefully cooked soup, rich condiments, delicious meat sauce, plus fried spicy and delicious chili oil, after the bowls of hot and sour noodles are ready, just looking at the steaming hot noodles will increase your appetite.
Add a few drops of balsamic vinegar when eating to whet your appetite!
"Is this hot and sour rice noodle made from potatoes? It's so delicious!"
"Potatoes can be made into such delicious food. I really wonder how Aya came up with this!"
"It's amazing! I can eat two big bowls in one sitting!"
“Delicious! So delicious!”
No matter adults or children, everyone likes it.
Zhao Liya smiled and said, "You all know how good potatoes are, right? These potato vermicelli noodles can not only be made into hot and sour noodles, but also cooked in hot pot. They are both delicious!"
Actually, potatoes have more benefits than just that. She hasn't made potato chips or French fries for her family yet. She'll make some ketchup and try some French fries sometime.
Uncle Hu couldn't help but say, "Aya, it would be a shame if this potato flour recipe were to go unrecognized. I think it would be better if we opened our own shop in the city and hired a few people. Not only in our county, but ideally in the provincial capital as well. We wouldn't need a large shop, which would reduce costs. After a month, I'm sure the profit would be quite good."
Although someone would definitely learn by then, every soup base recipe was different. Shu Yan was in my family, so of course her soup base was the best. I wrote down the recipe carefully, and even if someone I hired couldn't match her, they could still make it just as well.
Even if the ingredients don’t contain so much meat sauce or such a large amount, as long as the soup base is good and the chili oil is cooked well, the taste will definitely be good.
Everything else is just icing on the cake.
Everyone agreed that it would be a bit of a loss if they didn't make any money from promoting it.
Zhao Liya smiled and said, "I actually have the same idea, but I just think it's inconvenient."
Uncle Hu immediately patted his chest and said with a smile, "What's the inconvenience? Everything is back to normal in the workshop these days, and the potatoes that can be sold are almost sold out. It's just right. I'll take Ah Ling to the provincial capital and make sure this matter is settled."
Anyway, you just need to look at the shop first, prepare for the decoration, recruit people, and sign the contract first. It's very easy.
You don’t need to be too greedy at the beginning. You can definitely manage it by opening three or four stores in the city, and then slowly expand the scale later.
Uncle Hu is worthy of being a former butler. He can see through it at a glance. This hot and sour noodle is suitable for opening a small shop, but if too many small shops are opened, the profit will be considerable.
You have to know that the ingredients for something this delicious aren't expensive. Potatoes and peppers are relatively affordable, and the broth, made from bones, isn't expensive either. A small spoonful of the meat sauce isn't much, and it doesn't cost much.
The more he thought about it, the more excited he became. He said cheerfully, "How about we discuss opening a store in the county first and give it a try?"
"That's a good idea!"
"Yeah, yeah, that's just right!"
Zhao Xiang smiled and shook his head, "Have you all forgotten Mao Dexing?"
Everyone was stunned. Oh, yes, how could we forget about this plague god!
"Oh!" With Mao Dexing here, it would be impossible for the Zhao family to open any other store, let alone the hot and sour noodle shop. Mao Dexing would definitely cause trouble.
Zhao Liya's eyes lit up: "Dad, we can go to Suixi County and try. If we ask Brother Zhong and the others to help keep an eye on it, won't that be enough?"
"Yes, yes! Then let's try Suixi County! We can open a bigger store." Uncle Hu also became happy.
Zhao Xiang smiled and nodded: "That's fine."
Everyone was excited. Since that was the case, let's give it a try. The potato flour had been produced and would be available for sale soon.
Zhao Liya, Shu Yan and Qu Yutao immediately got to work, spending three or four days in the kitchen tinkering with recipes, including making soup, stir-frying various condiments and boiling chili oil.
Not everyone has Shu Yan's cooking skills, but as long as you record what Shu Yan does, the approximate proportions and production time, the taste will naturally be similar.
Zhao Liya was responsible for recording, Qu Yutao helped out, and Shu Yan operated.
The finished product recipe was tried out by Widow Qu and Aunt Li Shiyi respectively, and they both tasted really good.
In order to reward everyone, Zhao Liya made ketchup and fried French fries, which was another delicious dish that made people so addicted that they couldn't stop eating.
The three children, in particular, sat in a row and ate with gusto and smiles in their eyes. It turned out that children of any age could not resist the charm of French fries.
“This can also be sold as a snack!”
Uncle Hu sighed.
Zhao Liya laughed: "Forget about this, let's wait for later!"
In the future, it can be sold with fried chicken nuggets and egg tarts, or even with a modified version of roujiamo.
As soon as the recipe for hot and sour noodles came out, Uncle Hu was full of energy and decided to go to Suixi County to open a shop.
After tasting a can of coconut, it tasted good and showed no signs of spoilage. It looked like it would be fine if kept for another month or two. Zhao Liya was overjoyed and knew that she could finally start a canning workshop.
Once the route is officially confirmed, it can be sold directly to Jiangnan.
It’s just right, the lychees are almost ripe.
If it were modern times, there would be quite a few lychees on the market by now, but perhaps the varieties are different. The current varieties are relatively primitive, without breeding and selection, and there are no early-ripening varieties. Uncle Hu, Aunt Hu, and Zhou Nian are all eagerly watching the lychee tree in their yard, waiting for them to ripen!
But if you want to make canned lychees, then the time difference is just right, there is enough time.
Zhao Liya, Uncle Hu, Hu Ling, and Qu Yutao went to Suixi County together. The four of them quietly left Yan Village early in the morning.
Their family members often go out, leaving early and returning late, so they don't attract much attention. It's best if no one asks about it. If someone does, they will just go into the mountains to hunt for mountain products.
