The next day, as soon as Chi Xingyue got up, she picked all the ripe peppers from the flower rack.
Ask Erzhu to find ingredients such as star anise, cinnamon, bay leaves, gardenia, cardamom, fennel, etc., grind them into powder and put them in a dish for later use.
Baozhu was making bone soup, a large pot of bones in it, and the soup was white and fragrant. Ling Weicheng was so greedy that he went straight into the kitchen to get a bowl to drink.
Chi Xingyue and Ling Jiheng went out and brought back a large piece of fat beef.
When the Ling family saw this, they tacitly didn't ask where the meat came from. They just looked at the two curiously, wondering what they were going to do.
What bad intentions could Chi Xingyue have? She just wanted to blow up the street!
I just said last night that I wanted to make some money, so of course I have to take action.
Ling Jiheng also indulged her and cooperated with her throughout the whole process without showing any impatience.
After all the ingredients were prepared, I personally fried a large pot of beef hot pot base.
In order to enhance the aroma, some mutton fat was added in it, which is very thoughtful.
After cooling, cut the base into pieces and wrap them with wax paper.
He called Ling Yi, Jin Bao, Er Zhu and others, packed up their stuff and prepared to set off.
The old lady waved her hand, telling them to be careful and come back soon.
Chi Xingyue nodded in agreement and left happily.
To be honest, there are many ways to make money, but she was really bored, so she suddenly wanted to join in the fun.
Not only did Ling Jiheng not object, he also joined her in the fun.
A coal stove, washed vegetables, and pots and pans were placed in the car.
We didn't go very fast along the way, but we talked and laughed a lot, and were looking forward to today's results.
Fortunately, the snow and wind from last night stopped this morning. The sun shone through the layers of clouds and sprinkled on the white snowflakes, making the whole world exceptionally bright.
It's a bit dazzling, but it makes people feel good.
Soon, they arrived at the county town. Although there weren't many vehicles passing through, there were still some. Jinbao fished out a few copper coins and paid the city entrance fee.
I came to the largest commercial street in the east, stuffed a dime into the pocket of the officer in charge of the security in that area, found a corner, put out the stove, put the pot on it, and soon the water boiled.
Ling Jiheng took out a piece of hot pot ingredients and put it into the pot. The whole street was instantly filled with a strange fragrance.
The vendors huddled on both sides of the road sniffed, feeling that the smell was a bit overbearing.
I leaned over curiously and saw six big men standing on the small stall. I shrank my head in fear and dared not look again.
Chi Xingyue put the prepared vegetables in, rinsed them briefly, and they were cooked. She took them out, put them in the dipping sauce, and started eating them right away.
Shasha's look is so enticing that it makes others jealous.
Chi Xingyue wiped his mouth and shouted, "Spicy hot pot ingredients, 500 wen a piece, buy ten get one free, hurry up and grab them!"
Everyone: “…”
What are hot pot ingredients and what is spicy? Is it the taste of dogwood? But dogwood is not this fragrant!
He slurped his saliva, not daring to look openly, but only to sneak a peek out of the corner of his eye.
The maids and housekeepers of wealthy families who were out shopping suddenly brightened up and came over to ask, "What is this?"
Ling Jiheng directly took out a pair of bowls and chopsticks and put some sesame paste in them: "Here, try it!"
As he said this, he scooped up a few leaves of lettuce and a few slices of mutton for the other person.
Upon hearing this, the butler of the Fang Mansion, who was dressed even more gorgeously than Ling Jiheng, actually started eating.
The lettuce was crisp, the lamb was tender, and the spicy hot pot base and the special taste of sesame paste made him amazed.
Without even saying a word, he put his chopsticks into the pot and started fighting with Ling Yi and the others.
Seeing this, the others also came over with licking faces to ask for food.
Ling Jiheng accepted all the food offered to him, and gave them some to try regardless of whether they could afford it or not.
All the people who already had little traffic on the street were attracted here.
"What is this? It's delicious. Boss, can you give it a discount?" The housekeeper asked while eating, wishing he could take the pot back.
Ling Jiheng smiled and shook his head: "No way, brother, this thing is rare, and I will lose money if I sell it cheap! How about this, since you are my first customer, I will give you an extra two kilograms of green leafy vegetables?"
To be honest, it's freezing cold now, and two kilograms of green leafy vegetables are much more valuable than a dozen hot pot ingredients. The housekeeper couldn't believe there was such a generous person.
He nodded quickly: "Okay, okay, prepare ten taels of silver for me, no, cover it all, my master will definitely like to eat this!"
"No, we are still here. Housekeeper Fang, you can't eat alone. If our Master Pang finds out, won't he punish me?"
"Our Madam Tang is the same. She hasn't had an appetite for a long time. Boss, you can't listen to him. Give me ten taels of silver too!"
Everyone was afraid that the base material would be snatched away by the rivals, so they spoke up quickly.
Ling Jiheng raised his hand to suppress it: "Don't worry, don't worry, everyone has one. Each person is limited to buying five taels of silver. You can buy more after you finish eating. This thing is easy to make you get angry, so don't eat it with others."
Ling Jiheng briefly explained the precautions for eating spicy food: "People with weak spleen and stomach cannot eat it, pregnant people cannot eat it, and the elderly cannot eat too much.
Try eating less the first time to avoid stomach discomfort, diarrhea, or stomach pain. If you have any problems, consult a doctor immediately without delay!
Ling Jiheng said this out of a serious and responsible attitude towards business, so that they wouldn't be unaware and accuse him of poisoning someone.
However, the housekeepers and maids who were about to pay were frightened: "What do you mean, this thing of yours is poisonous?"
Ling Jiheng shook his head: "No, no, it's just that everyone's physique is different, so they will react differently after eating it."
Then he pulled Ling San over and said, "Look at him, his mouth is swollen from eating so much, and it hurts when he touches it. But the others are fine, they are eating and drinking as usual.
Everyone has different tolerances for spicy food, and I say all this to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings."
Everyone nodded, felt their stomachs, and felt relieved when they found nothing unusual.
However, he was still a little concerned, so he gave a big discount on the original order quantity, from ten taels to five taels.
There were exactly eleven pieces. Chi Xingyue wrapped it in red paper and gave it to the other party.
In just a quarter of an hour, he sold one-third of the goods and earned 150 taels, which made other vendors jealous.
Ling Jiheng was worried that someone might use his identity to deceive others, so he reminded those who bought the hot pot base: "My surname is Ling, and I'm from Qingshan Village. I come here every five days. Please recognize me as a member of the Ling family!"
Several housekeepers nodded, took a closer look at Ling Yi and the others, and left while chatting.
Others who were watching the fun wanted to buy it, but it was too expensive. It was enough to cover their food expenses for several days and they simply couldn't afford it.
Ling Jiheng didn't plan to sell all at once. He stayed there for a while, sold some of them here and there, and then took a few people to Ruyi Tower.
