Chapter 168: BBQ is a Hot Sale
I just spoke too loudly to Shopkeeper Yang.
This is terrible, what if I ask him to send it?
If you give it as a gift, you will suffer the loss; if you don’t give it as a gift, you will offend the guests.
Jiang Eryong heard it, and Yang Wanli naturally heard it too.
He took out a piece of silver and placed it heavily on the table, about half an ounce of silver.
"Okay, there's no way I'm going to let you give it to me. There's no such thing as free food. No matter how the barbecue and cold noodles taste, I'm going to buy them."
Yang Wanli's words made Jiang Eryong feel relieved.
His eyes were full of gratitude.
"Thank you, Mr. Yang. It's not that expensive. The grilled meat is five cents a skewer, and the vegetarian is two cents a skewer. You have six skewers of meat, five skewers of vegetarians, plus a bowl of cold noodles for ten cents, a total of fifty cents. Here, I'll give you your change."
Jiang Eryong loudly announced the price of the new product.
Then he whispered in Yang Wanli's ear, "I'll give you the extra two skewers of meat."
Yang Wanli smiled knowingly.
Nod slightly.
Then I picked a skewer of pork belly and took a bite.
The next second, his eyes widened.
The meat was roasted until crispy and fragrant. The originally fatty pork belly did not taste greasy at all. After a few bites, the fragrance lingered between the teeth.
Yang Wanli ate the whole skewer.
He chewed and chewed, and the more he chewed, the more delicious it became.
It was so delicious I'm speechless.
Until you swallow the pork belly.
Then he praised loudly.
"It's delicious, really delicious! As expected of the Jiang Family Snack Shop, the ordinary pork belly is roasted so deliciously, it's really top-notch! Let me try this cold noodle."
Yang Wanli picked up the chopsticks.
I picked up a piece of cold noodles with a few cucumber shreds on it.
A lot of soup was soaked on the noodles.
As I slurped it, the cool noodles danced in my mouth.
It is also like a fish in the water, swimming freely.
"Hmm, delicious. I've never eaten such strange noodles before. It's sour and sweet, a little salty and spicy. It tastes very cool and delicious."
I haven't swallowed the cold noodles in my mouth yet.
Yang Wanli began to praise.
As a result, his speech was a little unclear, but seeing that everyone was very excited and listening carefully, they could understand what he said.
Yang Wanli held a barbecue skewer in his left hand and a bowl of cold noodles in his right hand.
Two-pronged approach.
A variety of flavors mixed in his mouth.
Yang Wanli is immersed in a sea of delicious food.
He ate without even raising his head.
Completely disregarding the eyes of others.
Jiang Fubao's little head popped out from behind the curtain, and she watched secretly.
This uncle is like a modern food show host.
The food tastes so delicious when you eat it in big mouthfuls.
look.
Not only in the shop, but also outside the shop, there were many people drooling over his charm.
Jiang Fubao knew.
I think the barbecue and cold noodles in my shop will be sold out.
The barbecue is not expensive, but not cheap either. After all, the vegetables and meat on the skewers are modern southern versions.
Not like the big meat skewers in the north.
So affordable.
After one bite, the meat couldn't fill my mouth.
If a string of noodles costs more than ten cents, I'm afraid that after eating their fill, the customers will be so scared that they will faint when they pay the bill.
"Waiter, give me ten skewers of barbecue and a bowl of cold noodles!"
"I want ten skewers of BBQ too. Forget the cold noodles. I just had a meat pie and my stomach is full. I'll eat it tomorrow."
"I want 20 skewers, two servings of cold noodles, two pieces of meat cakes, and two cups of green bean soup. Take them all away. I'll take them home to eat with my wife."
"......"
The new product sold out instantly.
A dozen people spoke at the same time.
Jiang Eryong and Jiang Dahao didn't know who to listen to first.
"Waiter, give each of us three ten skewers of barbecue and a bowl of cold noodles."
Kong Mingxue also hurried to place his order.
I’m afraid it’ll be too late and I won’t be able to eat it.
"Ladies and gentlemen, please wait a moment. The skewers include pork belly, pork skewers, lamb skewers, and crispy bone skewers..."
“The vegetarian dishes include roasted leeks, roasted mushrooms, roasted eggplants, stinky tofu, roasted peppers…”
"Excuse me, which ones do you want? Come one by one, there are plenty, guaranteed to be enough for everyone."
The wooden sign for the grilled vegetables is still being made and has not been hung on the wall yet.
I can only introduce them one by one verbally.
Fearing that they would fight over the food, Jiang Eryong reminded them that there was enough food.
People then lined up and stopped scrambling to place orders.
The people in charge of the stove in the backyard are Jiang Siyin and Jiang Tongjin.
Both of them were sweating profusely.
There was a piece of linen hanging around their necks to wipe sweat.
Jiang Fubao always felt that these two pieces of linen looked very familiar, as if they were someone's foot washing cloths.
But she didn't say it.
Dad loves cleanliness the most. If he knew that the sweat cloth hanging around his neck was originally used to wipe feet, he would definitely not accept it.
Jiang Fubao is a good and filial child.
She would never tell Dad about this.
"Mom, it's a lot. Twenty skewers of pork belly, fifteen skewers of pork, eighteen skewers of lamb, eight skewers of steamed bread slices, six skewers of grilled spareribs..."
Jiang Eryong finished speaking in a hurry, and was afraid that his family would not remember, so he left the wooden board where the dishes were recorded.
This piece of wood is about the size of a modern notebook.
Write or draw on it with a charcoal pencil, and it will come off with just the rub.
No one in the family can read.
So the names of the dishes are all pictures.
For example, lamb skewers are like a sheep's head, pork skewers are like a pig's nose, and pork belly is like a palm with five clearly visible fingers.
This method was thought up by Zhang Jinlan.
Even Jiang Fubao had to praise grandma for being so smart.
The menu is simple and clear, and everyone in the family can know what is written at a glance.
There were two wooden boards, one was placed in the backyard, where Jiang Siyin was holding the skewers, and the other was held in the front by Jiang Dahe to take orders.
There is no coal in the oven.
They are all fruit trees brought from home.
There are many sour wild fruits in the mountains that cannot be eaten. The trees grow very fast. They can be chopped down and used as firewood, and then roasted to produce a fruity aroma.
The fire from wood is bigger than that from charcoal.
When grilling, if you don't control the heat well or get distracted, the skewers will get burnt.
Jiang Siyin and Jiang Tongjin are obviously doing a good job.
There was a lot of smoke during the barbecue, and Qian Xile wanted to take a fan and fan the two of them, fearing that they would be suffocated or get heatstroke.
But he was pulled aside by Jiang Fubao.
My sister-in-law is very likely pregnant.
Do not inhale a lot of fumes.
It's not good for her or the fetus.
Sun Pingmei took this position.
She held a palm-leaf fan in each hand.
She fanned hard, and when she got tired, Zhang Yanzi took over again.
With the addition of barbecue and cold noodles, fewer people bought meat pie.
However, the number of people buying mung bean soup has not decreased.
You will always feel thirsty after eating, and the skewers are heavy in salt, oil and seasonings, so your mouth will feel dry after eating, and the amount of mung bean soup has not decreased.
Selling even more.
It was almost noon and Jiang Fubao was a little hungry. She took a few kebabs of lamb from her father and ate them under a tree, enjoying the delicious food.
“Ouch—”
The next second, a falling peach hit her on the head.
Jiang Fubao screamed.
Suddenly I felt dizzy and fell off the chair.
The kebab in his hand also fell to the ground.
