Chapter 119 Delicious!
After everything was prepared, Tong Xiayue went straight into the kitchen. When Boss Kong wasn't paying attention, she went to the kitchen and put the spice pack she had prepared directly into the pot. Then she put the duck and pork offal into two large pots and stewed them.
She had cooked in large quantities before. There were only about 20 to 30 kilograms in total, which was nothing to her. It was all ready in two hours.
Boss Kong had already smelled the fragrance and kept running to the kitchen to see if it was ready. He was already very greedy.
Tong Xiayue smiled at his expression and said, "Okay, try it, but it will taste better when it cools down!"
Boss Kong couldn't wait any longer, so he picked up a duck neck with chopsticks and started to chew it: "Hot! Huhu, delicious!"
Tong Xiayue found it funny that he was reluctant to let go even though it was hot: "It's done, just wait until they are all cold and then take them out to sell. I've written the price on a piece of paper. Remember to get some samples for people to try. Don't be reluctant to give them this little bit of food. People will only spend money to buy it if they think it tastes good, understand? If people bring lunch boxes or something, you can give them some broth. Remember, don't be stingy when doing business!"
Boss Kong saw that Tong Xiayue didn't look like he was doing business for the first time, but he didn't ask too many questions. It's better not to pry into other people's affairs!
Tong Xiayue: "By the way, you can keep the money you made today. One is for the goods you get today, and the rest is for tomorrow. We will settle once a month in the future."
Kong Lao Da smiled and said, "Sister, you really trust me. Goodbye, I will give you all the money, and you will divide it at the end of the month. During this period, you only need to pay me for the goods!"
Tong Xiayue didn't expect this man to be so honest: "That's fine, I have to go back, and I'll have trouble for you in the future!"
After Tong Xiayue left, Kong Lao Da didn't dare to leave either. Such a fragrant smell must have spread far away. If he left, it would be better for people to follow the smell and take the things away.
So he sat here and waited until all the food was cooled down before putting it into wooden barrels and dragging it directly to the black market with a cart.
Selling things in the black market is the most convenient at the moment. He plans to see how the sales go first and then make adjustments.
He is a familiar face in the black market. When he was trading small items before, he had many regular customers. When they saw him pushing a cart today, they were curious and asked, "Boss Kong, what are you selling today? Why do you need a cart?"
After Boss Kong lifted the cloth covering his clothes, waves of tempting meaty aroma wafted out, attracting everyone to look.
"Boss Kong, what good stuff did you bring today? Why does it smell so good?"
As the aroma spread, more and more people gathered around.
Boss Kong laughed and said, "Balloy duck and halved pig offal, you guys try them, if they don't taste good, we won't charge you!"
"You're really giving us free food? How can that be?"
"Don't tell me we're being cheap if we don't buy it!"
Boss Kong: "Don't worry, don't you know how I work? Come and try it!"
After hearing what Boss Kong said, everyone came over to get the samples. Boss Kong was also a businessman, he knew without Tong Xiayue teaching him that the samples should be cut into large pieces so that you can taste the flavor. If the pieces are too small, you can't taste them at all, and that would be a waste!
"What's that smell? Why is it so fragrant!"
"The same goes for the pig intestines. How are they made? How come they don't have that fishy smell!"
"This duck is not bad either! It's perfect as a side dish!"
"Boss Kong, how do you sell these?"
He was relieved to hear everyone's feedback. The eldest sister's cooking skills really could win over the crowd!
"Duck is 1.5 yuan per catty, large intestines are 1.13 yuan per catty, and pig hearts are 1 yuan per catty!"
These were the prices set by Tong Xiayue. They were the same as when she was in Yangliu Village before. There was no price increase because the purchase price did not change. It was estimated that Boss Kong used his connections. He originally thought that the prices in Beijing would definitely be high, but he didn't expect it to be the same as the prices in Luhai before.
Therefore, the selling price has not changed, and such prices must be acceptable to people in Beijing.
But no matter where you go, there are always some people who like to bargain.
"It's so expensive, I might as well buy duck goods and cook them myself!"
"That's right, this price is enough to order a dish at a state-owned hotel!"
"Boss Kong, I usually take care of your business. Can you make it cheaper? Can we come more often in the future?"
Boss Kong is a principled person. There can be no chance of compromise on the price set at the beginning, otherwise how can this business be done in the future?
Boss Kong laughed and said, "Auntie, look at what you said. If you can make it taste exactly the same, why would I do this business?"
As soon as the words fell, the auntie who had just spoken blushed instantly. Indeed, she had just boasted. This taste was something she had never tasted before. Even if she bought the food home, it would most likely be wasted. It would definitely not be made well.
Boss Kong: "Everyone thinks it's delicious. You all know what the prices are in Beijing now. The price I'm selling it at is really not expensive. I can't compromise on the price. This business is not mine alone. I'm also helping out. How about this, if you buy it, you can go back and get your lunch boxes. I'll make some broth for you. It's delicious when you go back and soak rice or dip steamed buns! How about it?"
People are like this. They all want to get a little bargain. When they heard that broth could be given away, they all squeezed over: "Wait a minute, I'll go back and get my lunch box!"
"I've brought my lunch box. Give me two pounds of duck goods! Give me the same!"
"My home is far away, so no broth today. Give me more broth next time! Give me a pound of pig offal today, and I'll go back and let my man taste it!"
"I want a pound of duck goods too!"
"I'll have two pounds of pig intestines!"
…………
Before long, all the things that Boss Kong brought were sold out. Many people who were rushing home to get their lunch boxes had already sold out by the time they came back...
"Oh, how come you sold out in just the time I went back!"
Boss Kong said helplessly: "Auntie, that's why we should buy it as soon as we see it. If we act too late, we won't be able to buy it!"
"Then will you come tomorrow? When will you come?"
Boss Kong smiled and said, "Come on, I'll come at this time tomorrow. Those of you who haven't bought it should come earlier!"
In fact, Boss Kong didn't expect it to sell out so quickly. It was sold out in about 20 minutes. It's too easy to make money!
It seems that he will have to increase the quantity of goods in the future, otherwise it will not be enough to sell!
After selling the goods, Mr. Kong went to the slaughterhouse to greet the people. He wanted to order more later. Fortunately, they were all acquaintances, so they agreed without much discussion.
It was the same as the previous request, to help clean up all the goods. Mr. Kong actually paid the processing fee according to the weight, 0.1 yuan per pound, and everyone was scrambling to do it!
After Tong Xiayue returned to Gu's house from Dajia Lane, Liu Zhen had not come back yet. Aunt Cao saw her running out for a long time and worriedly said, "The old man and the others won't let you go out alone, so you'd better not run around."
Tong Xiayue smiled and said, "That won't work. You have to move around even if you're pregnant! It's okay, I'll just walk around."
Aunt Cao felt that what she said made sense and didn't refute it. She just felt that she had a very tempting meaty smell on her body after she came back, but she thought she had eaten something outside before coming back, so she didn't ask any more questions.
