Chapter 188 Sichuan and Chongqing's Favorite
"mutton?"
Lin Su'e's eyes suddenly lit up and she walked over quickly.
The person selling mutton was a middle-aged man. At his feet was an adult goat, which had been gutted and half of it had already been sold.
She squeezed forward.
The man smiled and greeted: "Big sister, would you like to buy something?"
Lin Su'e squatted down and looked at the meat, nodding secretly: Not bad, very fresh.
"How much do you sell this mutton?"
The man replied: "50 cents per pound."
Mutton has a strong smell, and many people in Sichuan Province cannot get used to eating it, so its price is not as high as pork.
Lin Su'e nodded: "Okay, 5 jins."
"Okay."
"I want to be thin."
"no problem."
Finished buying.
She paid and rode her bike back home.
…
Meal time.
The families of Zhao Xiaoyong, Zhao Xiaozhong and Wang Bowen happened to come together. As soon as they entered the door, they smelled the fragrant aroma.
Zhao Xiaozhong took a deep breath: "It smells so good~"
Zhao Xiaoyong swallowed his saliva and said, "Sister-in-law, what dish did you make that smells so good?"
Wu Lai Di glanced at her husband and said, "You really have Alzheimer's disease. Chunlan said she came to eat hot pot. What else could it be?"
Zhao Xiaoyong suddenly realized: "Oh, that's right."
He smiled innocently: "I'm old, I'm old..."
Lin Su'e smiled and came to the rescue of her eldest brother: "Brother, sister-in-law, second brother...you all should sit down quickly."
"I'm inviting you to eat hot pot today. Chunlan and I are planning to open a store in town to do business. I want you to come and help taste the food and give us some advice."
"Open a shop?"
Everyone was shocked and surprised.
Lin Su'e nodded and continued, "Originally, hot pot is eaten while it is being cooked, but I don't have a stove right now, so I can only cook the dishes first and serve them out."
“It might taste a little worse.”
Liu Li immediately shook her head: "It's okay."
"But, Su'e, what are the onions, ginger, garlic, and oil in this bowl?"
"Oh, this is the dipping sauce for hot pot."
As she spoke, she picked up a piece of mutton, put it in the bowl and dipped it in the sauce, and said, "Then put it in your mouth."
"Eat yourselves, you're welcome."
Everyone understood and stretched out their chopsticks.
One eat.
There were immediate exclamations of praise.
"tasty!"
“It smells good and tastes even better!”
“It’s delicious!”
"Very spicy, very satisfying."
“It’s delicious even without the dipping sauce, but it tastes even better with the dipping sauce.”
"Bashi, Bashi~"
“…”
The adults were full of praise for it, and the children were eating so much that they didn't even raise their heads.
To this.
Lin Su'e was not surprised.
joke!
No one from Sichuan can resist hotpot.
A saying was indeed popular in Sichuan and Chongqing in later generations: If you are unhappy about something, go eat a hotpot. If one meal doesn’t work, eat another one.
This is enough to show the love that people in Sichuan and Chongqing have for hotpot.
…
A meal.
The meal was very hot.
In the end, all the meat and vegetables prepared by Lin Su'e weighed hundreds of kilograms, and more than 20 people finished the work.
Everyone was full, their stomachs were bulging at the same time, and their faces showed the same satisfaction.
It was rare for Lin Su'e to eat so much.
The food at home is usually pretty good, but hotpot is still particularly attractive. The more people there are, the better it tastes, and you can end up eating too much without realizing it.
She didn't forget her business.
"Brothers and sisters-in-law, is there anything you think needs to be corrected? Feel free to ask."
As soon as these words came out.
Several people said in unison: "No, no."
Zhao Xiaoyong: "Sister-in-law, is the hot pot restaurant you sell expensive? If it's not expensive, I will definitely come here often in the future."
Zhao Xiaozhong echoed: "Me too."
Wang Bowei nodded.
Lin Su'e smiled and said, "The price has not been decided yet, but if my brothers and sisters-in-law come to eat, I will definitely give you a discount."
She wasn't going to give it away.
The loophole of free service cannot be opened. The biggest taboo in doing business is to confuse public and private affairs.
after.
Even if she was greedy, she had to pay.
opposite.
Zhao Xiaoyong laughed: "This is a good relationship."
Zhao Xiaozhong: "Okay, okay."
Wang Bowei asked: "How long will it take to open?"
Lin Su'e replied: "It hasn't been renovated yet. It will take at least next month."
"Let me know if you need any help."
Lin Su'e was not polite: "Yes, I am planning to build a kitchen, lay the floor, paint the walls and so on in my shop."
Hearing this.
Zhao Xiaoyong and others looked at each other.
Then, they said in unison: "No problem, leave it to us."
The young men also spoke up.
"I'll help, too."
"So can I."
“…”
Wu Laidie, Liu Guiqin, Liu Li and other family members did not object and agreed with a smile.
Relatives and friends should help.
Helping Lin Su'e to entertain her with good food and wine and giving her red envelopes was a good thing that was hard to find even with a lantern for a country person who had nothing but strength.
A meal.
A verbal agreement was made.
Wu Lai Di and the others insisted on helping to tidy up the kitchen and clean it up before going back together.
Leaving behind Lin Su'e and her family.
Zhao Zhenli touched his belly and asked eagerly, "Mom, are we going to open a hot pot restaurant in town?"
Lin Su'e gave him a look: "Yeah."
"That……"
Zhao Zhenli rubbed his hands together and said, "Can I not bring lunch with me and eat in the store first?"
Zhao Zhenxin and Zhao Yulan raised their hands.
"That's right."
Lin Su'e: Emm...my brain becomes very sharp at times like this.
"OK."
"That's great!" Zhao Zhenli exclaimed in surprise: "I can eat hot pot every day!"
Zhao Zhenxin also looked surprised.
Zhao Yulan cheered: "Yeah yeah yeah~"
Lin Su'e poured cold water on him: "...Who said we can eat hot pot every day?"
“No matter how delicious hot pot is, can it be eaten as a meal?”
"I will cook two dishes for you every day, but I won't bring any rice with you. You can eat whatever you want."
Zhao Zhenli burst out in tears: "Ah?!"
Zhao Zhenxin couldn't hide his disappointment.
Zhao Yulan pouted: "Is it true that we can't eat hot pot?"
Lin Su'e smiled and spoke word by word: "You can just buy it with your own money."
Three little ones: "..."
Sob.
Lin Su'e's face turned serious: "Okay, go take a shower quickly, you have to go to school tomorrow."
"oh."
"OK."
"knew."
The three of them agreed obediently and went dejectedly into the house to get their clothes.
Lin Su'e laughed.
Ear.
Zhao Chunlan's excited voice rang out: "Mom, let's open a hot pot restaurant!"
Lin Su'e looked over and smiled: "Are you not worried now?"
"Still a little bit."
Zhao Chunlan said honestly: "But, I think it's worth a gamble for such a delicious hot pot."
Lin Su'e was helpless with her daughter.
"Okay, let's take a gamble."
"By the way, Chunlan, once the hot pot restaurant opens, you definitely can't run it alone. You'll need two people to help with the dishes, two waiters at the front, and someone to keep accounts at the front desk. You'll need at least five people."
"Do you have any ideas?"
Hearing this.
Zhao Chunlan pondered for a moment and replied, "Mom, the kitchen helpers are mainly responsible for handling meat and vegetables, so they still need to have a certain amount of experience. I think we should find a professional cook, or a cook's apprentice; and then, for the others, I think we can find people from my eldest uncle and second uncle's families."
