Chapter 78 Discussing new products is a bit difficult...
Chapter 78
Lin Mujin got home, washed her face, and quickly started writing the manuscript. She still had two thousand words to finish.
Lin Muli couldn't stay at home, so he went out to play.
I finally got a day off, so I just let him go.
But I still told him to come back early so that he could cook dinner.
Lin Muli was not in a hurry to go out. "Sister, what are we having for dinner?"
Lin Mujin replied, "With so much oyster meat, make a large oyster omelet. And steam the snails you picked, too. That'll make two dishes."
Lin Muli interrupted, "Didn't you say you didn't eat seafood for the next two weeks? You said it would give you gout."
Lin Mujin choked. "I can still make something else. There are ingredients in the refrigerator. Pick a few and make two more dishes. Okay, don't bother me."
Just close and lock the door in one go.
The dinner table in the evening was quite sumptuous.
Steamed conch, slightly crushed oyster omelette, stir-fried pork belly slices with cucumber and carrot slices, minced garlic and green vegetables, and the staple food is seafood porridge.
She has made everything except steamed conch.
She reasonably suspected that Lin Muli had learned everything from her.
"The dried scallops are so fresh, and the dried shrimps are quite big. Were they all bought today?" Cousin Lin took a sip of the seafood porridge and was obviously very satisfied.
Lin Mujin nodded, "Yes, I also bought a lot of dried seafood, all good stuff."
Lin Muli muttered, "Dried seafood is so troublesome. Dried abalone needs to be soaked for two days, and then the water needs to be changed, and then blanched, and then soaked again. It's not enough trouble to eat it once. And dried sea cucumbers need to be soaked for three days and three nights. My God, I'm starving just trying to eat them."
As he said this, he rolled his eyes exaggeratedly, successfully making everyone laugh.
Lin Mujin smiled and said, "Good food is never too late. Besides, there's other food at home, so you won't starve."
Cousin Lin patted his head and said, "These dry goods are only used in big hotels. It's good enough to be able to eat them."
Lin Muli covered his head and said, "Okay, okay, I won't complain anymore. You just bully me. Sister, will you do it?"
Lin Mujin said profoundly, "There is a golden house in books, you can find it in books."
Her financial situation in her previous life was not very good, so she must have eaten seafood before, but it was always the kind of seafood buffet that cost several hundred yuan.
I've never tried that kind of high-end seafood Cantonese cuisine; it's too expensive.
However, I have watched a lot of videos online, and I can probably do a few of them if I want to.
Especially sea cucumbers. For a while, a certain men's football team was called the Sea Cucumber Team, and then people kept recommending various ways to cook sea cucumbers.
She thought that Mouyin had become a spirit and understood yin and yang.
"Dried seafood is best for making soup. Sister, I also bought fish maw, which is good for both of us." Lin Mujin said to her cousin Lin, touching her face.
If you have money, you have to take care of it.
Cousin Lin nodded repeatedly, "I know, there are also bird's nests, shark fins... They are all good for girls' skin."
Lin Mujin touched her chin. Bird's nest and shark's fin were a bit expensive, but she said, "Sister, we're running low on rice. Next time we go shopping, let's buy a pound of white fungus and two ounces of morels."
Cousin Lin nodded but hesitated, "Sister, those morels are super expensive."
She often goes to that store to buy goods, and after a few visits, she knows the prices of the items in the store very well.
Dried mushrooms are not cheap, and morels are among the most expensive.
Lin Mujin knew that morels were completely wild and had not yet achieved breakthroughs in cultivation technology, so they were naturally not cheap. "So just two taels is enough."
Cousin Lin grumbled, somewhat reluctantly, "That will cost a lot of money."
Lin Mujin said, "You get what you pay for. It's the best for making soup."
Put two or three flowers in a pot of soup and the taste will immediately double.
She wouldn't be extravagant and use a lot, so two taels can last a long time.
Cousin Lin finally compromised and said, "Just buy two taels."
Who made A-mei want to eat it? Anyway, she can afford it now.
Lin Mujin added, "I think we can order two more bottles of fresh milk at home, so that we can supplement protein and calcium."
Cousin Lin was a bit nagging, "How much does it cost?"
Lin Mujin whispered, "One thousand two hundred mosquitoes."
Cousin Lin immediately said, "No, absolutely not!"
Cousin Lin then said, "Why not switch to milk powder? It's much cheaper."
Seeing her cousin blushing, Lin Mujin quickly changed her tone, "Well, I think milk powder is good too."
She really didn't expect that in her previous life, due to breakthroughs in packaging and transportation technology, the prices of fresh milk and milk powder were almost the same.
For convenience, people tend to choose fresh milk.
Milk powder seems to be prepared for infants and the elderly.
But now milk powder is much cheaper than fresh milk because it is easy to store and transport.
Then let’s switch to milk powder, which is not bad in nutrition.
"Sister, don't worry. We can earn money even if we spend more. Do you want to add another product?" Lin Mujin originally wanted to wait another month or two before launching a new product.
After all, hot noodles and fried dumplings are still hot sellers.
Didn’t this offend Cousin Lin? Let her calm down quickly.
Cousin Lin was obsessed with making money, and her thoughts were immediately diverted. "Add what?"
Lin Mujin pointed to a plate on the table. "This! Oyster omelette. We can find partners in the fishing village and buy a large amount of oyster meat every day. If we can get up to 30 kilograms, we can easily negotiate it down to two dollars per kilogram. Then the cost of an oyster omelette won't be that high. If we sell it for ten dollars per piece, we can make a lot of money every day."
Cousin Lin's eyes almost turned into money symbols. "It's really good! The oyster omelet is delicious. I have eaten it several times and still can't get enough. I am sure the guests will like it."
Lin Mujin started to pour cold water on him, "That's right... there are a few minor problems. First, there's not enough staff. Second, there's no room for the food truck. Third, it would be best to customize a rectangular flat-bottomed iron pan."
The cold water was poured a bit too much, and Cousin Lin was already frowning.
Cousin Lin said, "It's not that difficult. Just find a blacksmith. A rectangular flat iron pan doesn't cost much. It's okay if the food truck doesn't have enough space. You can set up a stove next to it. Many stalls do that."
Cousin Lin immediately added, "Although our food truck looks big, it doesn't take up much space. The manager won't complain if we set up a stove. It's within the boundaries."
Cousin Lin continued, "If we don't have enough manpower, it's even easier. We can just recruit people. Aren't we planning to recruit people anyway?"
It is true that three cobblers are better than one Zhuge Liang. After everyone discussed it, it seemed that the problem was really solved.
Lin Mujin hesitated a little, "Should we add more ingredients now?"
Cousin Lin nodded and said, "I think the frequency of our regular customers has been a little low recently. No matter how delicious the food is, they can't keep eating it all the time. If we add a new item, they will have more choices."
Cousin Lin nodded in agreement, "I've noticed that too. There are fewer regular customers willing to chat with me."
Lin Muli interjected, "Then let's add more. With the oyster omelette, those old customers will definitely come back."
Lin Mujin was still weighing the options, and had a question: "But where can we recruit people if we're in such a hurry to add new products?"
