When it comes to diet, he is a first-rate person with broad knowledge and an unconventional approach.
Who would have known that after decades of eating and drinking, the older I get, the more I miss the flavors I secretly tasted when I was young.
For example, the humble peanuts and wild tea from the mountains have become his favorites.
Neither Lu Sinian nor Su Xiaoli understood the mellowness of this wild tea, and Mr. Lu couldn't help feeling a little lonely.
He seemed to be in a talkative mood today and started talking to himself.
“Tea is originally wild, so who knows tea best? Of course, it’s the mountain people who know tea best.
The best tea is naturally wild tea. The freshest water is of course spring water from the mountains.
The freshest water paired with the wildest tea, while listening to the singing of mountain larks and the whistling mountain breeze, is the most delicious thing.
What a pity... The city people are imitating the mountain people's behavior and pretending to be innocent and elegant, which is really out of place."
Mr. Lu was born in the mainland. When he was in his early teens, he followed his family elders to flee to Hong Kong Island and has taken root there for the rest of his life.
He kept talking on and on, as if he was talking about tea, but also as if he was talking about something else.
He didn't care whether the two juniors understood him or not, he just sipped his tea and ate peanuts slowly.
Su Xiaoli seemed to understand what he heard, but felt it was impressive.
I feel that Mr. Lu really knows how to eat and drink.
This matter is confirmed.
"If you like, drink more. We have more at home. Xiaoli, come and give me a hand and take these two plates of peanut butter out." Grandma Su served out two more plates of freshly made noodles.
"Peanut sticky?" Lu Sinian was curious and picked up one and put it in his mouth.
The snow-white outer coat reveals the red peanut kernel inside. Take a bite and the crispy, sweet and fragrant taste lingers between your lips and teeth.
Su Xiaoli nodded. The product she planned to use for drainage was "Peanut Sticky".
The key is that it is simple to make, affordable, and requires fewer raw materials than the previous ones, making it perfect for attracting traffic at a low price.
You can make it sweet or salty, just decide whether to add sugar or salt. Either flavor goes well with peanuts.
Even if the peanuts are left for a week after being made, they will not change their taste or become soft.
According to Su Xiaoli's idea, there is no need to waste effort to grab food in other people's red ocean battlefield.
Those who followed the trend were all making mustard peanuts, amber walnuts and the like, so she decided to stop making those and switch to making peanut paste and another product called "Moat".
I have what others don’t, and I don’t have what others have.
The main point is to make you lose your way! Although there is also a saying that "I have what others don't, I am better than others, I am unique".
Does this statement make sense? Yes, but it has its own applicable conditions.
The total operating capital of Su Xiaoli's stall is only a few hundred yuan. The costs are there, so she can't afford to engage in price wars, let alone sustaining the competition with others for a long time.
Since resources are limited, she will inevitably need to make choices.
Concentrate resources and send troops quickly. Only by defeating them in a short period of time can we ensure the continued survival of the business.
This kind of politically correct logic of large enterprises, "I am better than others, and I am unique if others are better", is acceptable as an ideal for self-indulgence.
But as her current entrepreneurial strategy, it is completely unfeasible.
She can't learn it or do it, and there is no need for her to learn it.
We need to both "liberate our minds" and "seek truth from facts."
She still has the determination to restrain the urge to compete head-on with others on the same product and focus on her own direction.
There was also some hidden thought in his mind, Su Xiaoli actually didn't want to use very much strength.
First of all, Chang Feng'e and the others are indeed not worthy of it.
You can't put all your energy into dealing with Chang Feng'e. It's not worth it.
In addition, she was also afraid that if her golden finger was used too much, it would be like the last time in Xiangjiang Department Store, and it would be difficult to clean up after it was exposed. Sooner or later, people would notice her "special ability"...
Gu Feihan didn't ask further questions out of love and trust, and Lu Sinian didn't ask further questions out of politeness.
But it was just a simple sentence, but it made Su Xiaoli break out in a cold sweat.
If a King plays against a Bronze player, his account will be banned.
You should be more careful.
This incident gave Su Xiaoli a lot of warnings.
If you want to make a fortune, you have to keep it quiet and never show off too much.
It is better to be more restrained, come up with one or two new products to regain the market, and then continue to make the original popular products.
Lu Sinian kept nodding his head; he was indeed quite inspired.
He didn't notice that Mr. Lu also showed admiration in his eyes.
With Mr. Lu's business sense of half a lifetime, this girl in front of him turned out to be a good seedling! Not only can she make snacks, but she also has a thorough understanding of the operating logic of the company at the beginning of its establishment.
Mr. Lu, who loves and cherishes talents, raised his eyebrows slightly. He had to find a way to bring this girl into his own company! As long as he gave her careful guidance over time, she might achieve more than the grandson who grew up by his side.
Mr. Lu touched his chin.
He made the decision unilaterally without even asking Su Xiaoli.
I don't know if it's an illusion, but Su Xiaoli always feels that the way Mr. Lu looks at her is inexplicably... much kinder, and there seems to be a hint of pride in it? Lu Sinian hasn't realized that his grandfather has forgotten him yet, and he is still immersed in his own problems.
"Then these materials you asked me to bring are of no use?"
To make peanut paste, you only need peanuts, starch, sugar, salt and oil, but what did he bring?
Imported unsalted butter and chocolate, milk powder, marshmallows, raisins, rice paper, molds...
Fortunately, he runs a large department store, so he can get all these things together.
Su Xiaoli looked at the boxes of materials as if she was looking at boxes of cash.
"That's another product, with richer ingredients." She kept it a secret, "I'll make it soon. Please have a taste with you and Grandpa Lu first."
It’s just that it’s almost noon, and it wouldn’t be good to just treat the two of them to snacks.
Su Xiaoli asked her grandmother to stir-fry some vegetables and some eggs at home, while she ran to the street to buy some clay oven baked buns and boneless meat.
After a short while, bean and corn salty soup, garlic spinach, cold shredded radish, vermicelli scrambled eggs, and juicy salted duck eggs were served on the table. The staple food and the meat dish were combined into one, which was just a freshly baked sesame cake with boneless meat in between.
The ingredients are simple, the method is simple, it is delicious and filling.
Especially the salty bean and corn soup.
Originally, this was just a refugee dish and famine dish in the "Yellow River Flood Area". Later, it was gradually evolved into a fixed dish for entertaining guests.
In Grandma Su’s eyes, salty soup is the highest standard of salty soup.
When she was a child, having a poached egg in salty soup, adding some vermicelli and sesame oil was the most enthusiastic and expensive treat a farmer could offer, and only distinguished guests could enjoy it.
Mr. Lu had eaten too many delicacies from land and sea, so eating farm dishes now was quite delicious. (End of this chapter)
