The next morning.
Chen Wang still gets up at five o'clock, brushes his teeth and washes his face, then starts to get busy.
From around six to ten o'clock last night, Yan Yulan and her colleagues processed more than 600 kilograms of lobsters.
As agreed, Chen Wang gave one dollar to each person, including Yan Yulan.
In addition, Lin Xiuqin also helped prepare the minced garlic and spices that would be used today.
She sat there and didn't deal with the lobster, but kept helping to peel the garlic. Finally, she smashed the garlic and cut it into minced garlic, then went back to the room to take a shower and sleep.
Now that these things are prepared, cooking crayfish is actually not that troublesome.
After the pot was heated, Chen Wang poured a bucket of oil into it.
I won’t use yesterday’s oil much anymore, so I’ll probably change it every day from now on.
After all, the profit is high enough, and there is no need for Chen Wang to be so unscrupulous. The hygiene of the food must still be guaranteed.
Just as I fished out a pot of fried lobsters, I saw Chen Dazhuang riding his bicycle at full speed.
"Awang, I'm sorry, I got up a little late."
"It's okay, I just started too."
Chen Wang smiled and said.
"What do you need me to do?"
Chen Dazhuang parked his bicycle and walked over quickly.
"Wash the pot over there, and then light up that stove. We're going to use both pots today."
"Okay!"
This wood-burning stove has two large iron pots, but usually one pot is more convenient and saves more firewood, so the one inside is rarely used.
The amount we have to do now is too large, so using two pots together will naturally be more efficient.
Chen Dazhuang took the dirty iron pot down, scrubbed it clean with detergent, and then rinsed it with clean water.
At the same time, Chen Wang had fried pots of lobsters.
Chen Dazhuang put the big iron pot on the stove, wiped the water stains inside with a clean rag, and then lit the fire in the stove.
All the lobsters on Chen Wang's side were fried. After the oil inside was drained out, clean base oil was poured into two pots at the same time, and then fried them left and right.
While making the braised crayfish, I was also making the garlic sauce.
Chen Dazhuang helped on the side and acted according to Chen Wang's instructions.
The two were busy running around when they heard the sound of a tractor engine coming closer.
After Uncle Zhao arrived, he immediately joined in to help.
We were busy until almost seven o'clock, and finally more than 600 kilograms of lobsters were cooked.
Five large stainless steel barrels and two smaller ones were all filled.
If it's just lobsters, these buckets can hold more than 800 kilograms.
It's now fully filled, and the excess is almost entirely soup.
As usual, Chen Wang made some soup and added a pack of noodles.
While the food was boiling in the pot, the three of them moved the thermos buckets onto the tractor, and also took the foam lunch boxes that were not used yesterday, paper towels, bowls and chopsticks, a large frying pan with a long handle, an enamel basin, a beam scale and other necessary items.
When everything was ready, the noodles in the pot were cooked.
The three of them ate and drank to their heart's content, then got in the car and set off.
…
…
The tractor drove all the way to the town market.
Chen Wang and Chen Dazhuang first took the two small thermos barrels out of the car, then each picked up one and went into the market.
When we arrived at the place where they were selling goods yesterday, there were already quite a few customers waiting.
The customers were delighted to see the two people coming.
"Boss, you're finally here."
"Oh, I changed to this stainless steel bucket. It looks much more professional."
"Boss, I'm the first one. Give me two kilograms of both flavors. I was so hungry when I got home last night that my dinner tasted tasteless."
"Get out of the way. I'm the first one here. What are you trying to steal?"
“Line up, line up.”
"Yes, line up, don't push, don't push."
"No way, boss, are these the only two buckets we have today? That's not enough!"
…
"Don't worry, there's a lot of cargo today, and there are a few large barrels on the truck outside!"
Chen Wang smiled in relief.
After hearing this, the customers felt relieved and the situation stabilized.
Chen Wang and his companion put things in place and opened the lid of the stainless steel barrel, and the fragrance immediately filled the air.
“That’s the smell. It’s so fragrant.”
"What's going on? It seems to smell better today."
"Damn it, never mind, I have to enjoy my meal today."
"Boss, give me five pounds. I want five pounds."
…
"Don't worry, we have them all. Please line up, one by one, it will be quick."
Chen Wang shouted loudly.
The customers were very cooperative and formed two lines, with the line behind getting longer and longer.
Some guests who didn’t come yesterday came over curiously to look at and ask. Chen Wang was not stingy and gave them one to try.
After tasting it, most customers went to queue up at the back without saying a word.
In less than twenty minutes, the lobsters in the two small buckets were basically sold out.
Chen Dazhuang ran back and forth twice and together with Uncle Zhao brought two large stainless steel barrels.
Crayfish continues to be a hot seller.
Even though the buying and selling was very efficient, the lines did not get shorter, but instead got longer.
Some of the stall owners around were jealous.
In fact, Chen Wang's booming business has also brought traffic to some surrounding stalls, allowing them to earn more than before.
However, that is human nature. Seeing Chen Wang stuffing money into his bag, many stall owners were jealous and crazy.
Some stall owners gathered together and talked in low voices.
"It's only three yuan a pound, and there are so many people buying it. It's too easy to make money!"
