"Amo, why did you add so much oil? And how come there's so much meat?"
Lin Sheng had a painful look on his face as soon as he came in. Farmers usually cook with less oil and salt, just to make sure they have enough food to eat. There is really no one who cooks as delicious and tasty as Lin Mo.
"Yes, Third Brother, only a very rich family can eat like this." Lin Wu said as he watched eagerly. When he finished eating, he would lick the plate clean so that nothing would be wasted.
If Lin Mo knew what Lin Wu was thinking, he would probably laugh until his stomach hurt.
"Brother, just wait for the delicious food. We haven't seen each other for so long. I finally went out to earn some money, so I wanted to make a good meal for our family."
Lin Mo grinned and started to cook the next dish under the painful gazes of his two brothers.
Lin Wen, who was outside the door, squatted directly at the door of the kitchen, and his stomach growled several times in response.
The Lin family's small kitchen was small, and it was already crowded with Lin Mo and the other two standing inside. Lin Wen couldn't squeeze in, so he could only stare at the two plates of delicious food on the stove and drool.
"Amo...it smells so good..." Lin Wen sniffed the smell in the air obsessively. It was the smell of meat.
Lin Sheng and Lin Wu also took a deep sniff unconsciously, and following the delicious taste, their eyes fell on the pork rib soup that Lin Mo had just opened. They were stunned for a moment and swallowed a few mouthfuls subconsciously.
"It smells so good! I've never smelled anything so fragrant in my life..."
Lin Wu licked his lips and stared at the ribs as he spoke.
Not only him, the smell drifted to several nearby houses, and even attracted people to go out to see who was stewing such delicious meat.
These days, we only eat two meals a day. That is, during the busy farming season, the men in the family need to conserve their energy for farm work, so we only eat three meals a day. But they are all steamed buns with boiled vegetables, and it is rare to have meat.
This is the case for families with better conditions. If the conditions are poor, they will not eat after returning from the busy farming season at night. They will just drink some water and go to bed early, waiting for the meal in the morning.
After the meal was served, Lin Mo brought out the pot of pork rib soup. The whole family held up their bowls and ate contentedly the most luxurious meal they had ever had.
Lin Wen ate even more carefully, and he wanted to chew the ribs into pieces even with the bones before swallowing them. If Lin Mo hadn't stopped him, with his teeth, he might have really been able to chew them into pieces.
The brothers buried their heads in their food, and after they had eaten and drunk their fill, they slumped back in their chairs, holding their stomachs in satisfaction and savoring the meal.
"I went to the provincial capital on business this time. At first, I followed the fleet and did odd jobs. Sometimes I would help carry goods at the ferry to earn money. Later, when I arrived in the provincial capital, I found a job as a kitchen helper.
"The shopkeeper saw that I was nimble and eager to learn, so he let me learn cooking from a chef for a while. The wages in the city were high, and I had some insights into cooking, so I researched a few recipes on my own. The shopkeeper gave me a lot of money, and he paid for any new recipes I came up with. This time I came back, I was planning to open a restaurant."
Lin Mo summarized his words. In order to make it easier for the three brothers to understand, he simplified his experience.
The ultimate purpose of his trip was just to find an excuse, an excuse that could shut up the people and allow him to gain a firm foothold.
After all, he is different from the original owner in many ways. It is impossible for him to suddenly learn how to make money and read. If he continues to follow the original owner's style, the situation at home will never improve.
However, it is normal for him to have changed after a few months of going out. No matter how jealous others are, they will not call him a monster. As for him, he can do a lot of things as long as he has such an excuse.
It can also truly change the current poor situation of this family, and even change the future lives of several brothers, so that they have a better future.
"Xiao Wu, quit all your jobs outside and you won't have to look for a job anymore. I have something for you to do tomorrow."
Lin Mo turned around and continued to say to Lin Sheng: "Brother, find a few familiar moms or aunts to come to our house to help. Since we are planning to open a shop to cook food, we must prepare it in advance."
Lin Mo took out the charcoal pencil he made and made plans as he spoke. He had already thought about it. The first store would start with fish-related delicacies. The reason was not for anything else, but because the cooking methods of fish in this world were still not perfect, so the price of fish was ridiculously low, and it even became meat eaten by the poor.
Before the end of the world, when the fish had not yet mutated, his best dishes were pickled fish and spicy fish, so they were also within his area of expertise.
"Shop?" Lin Sheng and Lin Wu looked at each other in surprise. Lin Mo had already shocked them enough today, and they had finally digested it. Now when they learned that their family was going to open a shop, they were both happy and panicked for a moment.
Only Lin Wen looked at Lin Mo stupidly. After eating and drinking, he looked energetic. His dark eyes fell on Lin Mo and he was reluctant to leave for a moment.
He hasn't seen Amo for a long time and misses her so much every day.
"Amo, what should I do? I can also help Amo with the work." Lin Wen pulled Lin Mo's sleeve, his skinny and sallow face full of anticipation.
"Awen is so good. I will assign you a task tomorrow." Lin Mo rubbed his head. He subconsciously treated Lin Wen like a child.
"Third brother, you said that your shop is ready?" Lin Wu looked incredulous. Lin Mo now made him feel that he could do anything.
Lin Mo smiled, slapped him on the head, and said, "How can it be so fast? Opening a store requires a lot of preparation. I'm just thinking about what kind of store to open. I'll need your help with the preparations later."
Lin Mo stood up and dug out a heavy bag of silver from his bag. He pushed aside the dishes and put them on the table. "Don't worry about me having no money. I made a lot of money with that recipe. It's more than enough for us to open a shop!"
He opened the package and said, "Here is some change. Tomorrow, big brother, you go find someone to help wash and pickle the vegetables. We are going to pickle sauerkraut, and we can't use the old method at home. So, follow my recipe."
"Awu, go to the village and find a familiar partner to go door to door collecting radishes and mustard greens with you. Big brother, you can take a few sisters-in-law and be in charge of cleaning. I will teach you the details tomorrow. Here I have exchanged thirty taels of silver and copper coins. The specific price for hiring someone is the usual rate in the village plus a few coins. Big brother, you keep this money for now."
Lin Sheng stared blankly at the bag of money. He didn't hear what Lin Mo said at all. He just stared at the money in a daze.
He had never seen so much money in his life. For a moment, he didn't know whether he was excited or what. He just stared at the bag of silver. When Lin Mo pushed the money into his arms, he was still confused.
