Roasted leeks
Before Yin Xiaotong could finish speaking, Cheng Jinguo interrupted Yin Xiaotong, and without giving Yin Xiaotong a chance to speak, he turned around and left.
Yin Xiaotong felt helpless as he watched Cheng Jinguo leaving.
For several days afterwards, Cheng Jinguo went to Yin Xiaotong's office for no reason and contacted Yin Xiaotong under the pretext of work.
When Yin Xiaotong graduated from junior college, it was the era when graduates were guaranteed jobs.
Because his father was the deputy director of the power plant, out of humane considerations, Yin Xiaotong was directly assigned to the power plant as a laboratory technician.
Cheng Jinguo is an engineer, so it is easy for him to find reasons to contact Yin Xiaotong.
Yin Xiaotong was very distressed about this.
The concept of love in that era was different from that of today, and blatant pursuit was not accepted by people.
Cheng Jinguo came here just to talk about work.
This approach is good for both Yin Xiaotong and Cheng Jinguo.
But Yin Xiaotong knew what was going on.
Therefore, no matter what reason Cheng Jinguo used to find Yin Xiaotong, Yin Xiaotong would just treat Cheng Jinguo as a transparent person.
Several times when no one was in the office, Cheng Jinguo asked Yin Xiaotong out for dinner, but Yin Xiaotong coldly rejected him.
Cheng Jinguo had no other choice but to keep on asking and waiting.
During the days when Cheng Jinguo and Yin Xiaotong were not here, Good Days BBQ Restaurant had more than just mushrooms and mussels.
Including the pork, beef and lamb skewers that Cheng Jinguo wanted that day.
Since Xiang Qing went to Lao Hu to order fresh meat that day, the meat at Good Days BBQ Restaurant is not only fresh every day, but is also delivered personally by Lao Hu every day.
In this way, not only did Lao Hu's business prosper, but Xiang Qinghao and Sister Zhou also avoided a lot of trouble.
So, after waiting for a few days and seeing no one coming to buy meat from Good Day BBQ, Mr. Dong started to worry.
Why don’t they come to buy meat after I recommend cheap meat to them?
So, when he got off work that day, Mr. Dong didn't go home directly. Instead, he took a detour to have a barbecue to see how things went.
I saw that the barbecue restaurant was packed with people, and the flow of customers coming and going was even greater than the goods being produced on an assembly line in a factory.
A closer look revealed that the meat inside was the freshest and best, even better than the meat in his butcher shop.
All the diners were eating with a happy look on their faces.
Old Dong was so angry that he spat at the intersection, glanced at the sign of Good Day BBQ with his eyes slanted, and left with a fierce look on his face.
Xiang Qing was busy putting all kinds of skewers ordered by customers on the rack and grilling them.
When Sister Zhou served the skewers to each table of diners, she also added a free bunch of grilled leeks.
"This is a new kind of grilled food in the store. One skewer per table for free. You can try it."
Roasted leeks!
The previous roasted mushrooms were already surprising, and now there are roasted leeks.
The boss really knows how to have fun.
"Boss, your business is getting bigger and bigger. Now you are grilling leeks." People who often eat barbecue here teased Xiang Qing.
"It's not a big deal, it's just a small business trying to stay afloat. High-end food doesn't sell here, so I'm trying to come up with something cheap and tasty for everyone to try."
That’s right, the bosses are all thinking about how to do better business, but in a small shop like this, even abalone and lobsters cannot be sold.
Or it’s better to use ingredients that are easy to approach.
Since it's free, I might as well try it. I've never eaten it before, but it looks good.
The leeks were washed clean and arranged on a skewer.
Xiang Qinghao controlled the heat very well. The thin leeks were roasted under the bright flame without being burnt, mushy or broken. They were soft and green.
After the leeks are grilled, there is still a layer of moisture on the surface.
When people look at it, they will unconsciously think of the leeks that have just been cut from the ground with a sickle.
It is tender, crispy, and has a spicy fragrance, mixed with the smell of summer in the air, which makes people fascinated.
The sauce sprinkled on the chives is a touch of red in the green, a touch of white in the red.
The combination of chili and sesame is like a deadly knife, urging diners endlessly.
Come and eat me, come and eat me, look how appetizing I am.
So, the quality is acceptable.
Tasting it.
The spiciness of leeks is reduced by more than half after being cooked over an open flame.
The roots are slightly harder and brittle, while the leaves behind are softer.
The little juice retained inside, combined with the unique fiber texture of the leek, makes it not sticky to the teeth when chewed, and it still has some stubborn toughness.
This toughness forces the eater to chew it a few more times, allowing them to further experience the sweetness after the spiciness of the leek.
The sweet taste combined with the flavor of barbecue ingredients makes the dish taste like a different world.
So, it’s not about what can be baked and what cannot be baked.
It mainly depends on whether the person who is grilling knows how to grill.
When the mushrooms and mussels were grilled before, they were met with great skepticism from customers.
So this time Xiang Qing didn’t sell it and just gave it away.
Anyway, summer leeks are not expensive, and one bunch is given to each table.
If successful, there is one more ingredient.
If you don't succeed, this amount of money is nothing.
Facts have proved that no matter what era or environment, delicious food can stand the test of time.
There was a free string of grilled leeks on each table, and someone immediately asked the price.
"10 gold coins a string."
If the food is so cheap and so delicious, you’d be a fool not to eat it.
A diner heard this.
Xiang Qing liked hearing this and couldn't help laughing.
The speaker spoke as if he were spending gold coins that were not his own.
"I'll take 10."
"I want 20 skewers."
"I bought too many skewers. I can only buy 5."
Hello, Xiang Qing. "It's okay. You can have as many skewers as you want. I'll grill them for you right away."
After that, rows of emerald green leeks were lined up on the grill, waiting to be grilled.
Another new dish that was a success.
Although roasted leeks are cheap, only 10 gold coins, a pound of leeks only costs 25 gold coins. When comparing the benefits and costs, the benefits are more than doubled.
I thought of another way to increase my income.
Xiang Qing, who made money, looked jokingly worthless.
There were so many people there at around 3 o'clock in the afternoon. After get off work, the flow of customers increased and it became a lively scene again.
Thinking of this, Xiang Qinghao's smile deepened.
At this time, three more people came in from the door. They were wearing dark blue military uniforms. They all had serious expressions. They walked in neatly and stood upright in Xiang Qinghao's shop.
He is from the Industrial and Commercial Administration Bureau.
It’s definitely not a good thing when the Industrial and Commercial Administration Bureau comes to the shop owner.
Not only Xiang Qinghao saw these three people, but the customers also saw them.
Xiang Qinghao came over immediately upon seeing this: "Hello, what are you doing here?"
The leader of the three showed his ID to Xiang Qinghao.
"Hello, comrade. We're from the Industrial and Commercial Administration Bureau. Someone reported you buying spoiled lymph meat and grilling it for customers, so we came to check it out."
After these words were spoken, some of the customers present began to look at each other.
