"Sister Manman, are you sure you can make this maocai?" Cheng Song expressed doubt.

As a local, he knew better than anyone that people here have a light taste and don't like spicy or numb food. Perhaps he could make more money by making other kinds of food.

"Cheng Song, are you questioning my second sister-in-law's ability? My second sister-in-law is so smart and far-sighted, she will never do a business that will lose money!"

When Jiang Lian saw that Cheng Song didn't believe in her second sister-in-law's ability, she immediately retorted unhappily.

What a joke, she is the only fan of her second sister-in-law.

"No, of course I trust Sister Manman's ability. I am just expressing my opinion and stating the facts!"

He was not questioning Qin Man at all, he was just giving his opinion.

Qin Man raised her eyebrows when she saw this. Everything was under her control.

"Don't worry, I've already learned about it. The city is a city with a rapidly developing economy. There are dense industrial areas here, and outsiders account for two-thirds of the total population. There are not only many private enterprises from other places, but also many state-owned enterprises. People working here come from all over the world. As far as I know, the First Normal University has a large number of students from Sichuan and Chongqing alone. There are also many students from other places in those vocational and technical colleges.

People who like spicy food will especially like it, and people who can eat spicy food can't refuse it. It's not like all people in this city can't eat spicy food, right? I make money from these outsiders and people who can eat spicy food!

There is a poem that goes like this: "When I am alone in a foreign land, I miss my family all the more during every festive season. If you can eat the flavors of your hometown in a foreign land at a price that is within your budget, will you come back to visit me?"

Qin Man is a very meticulous person. She usually takes the bus, and when she works in an electronics store, she comes into contact with a lot of people. She did some statistics, and based on their accents, most of the people working here are from the Hunan-Gansu line, the Sichuan-Chongqing-Yunnan-Guizhou line.

People in these areas love spicy food, and their level of spicy food tolerance ranks among the top five in the country.

"Sister Manman, you are worthy of me. Everything is within your budget!"

Cheng Song raised his thumb in admiration. Such a woman is so dazzling and so smart. No wonder Jiang Lian admires her so much!

"Sister-in-law, if you need help with your new store, just call me. I can clean it for you, wash the dishes, etc. It's no problem!"

Jiang Lian volunteered to join the labor movement.

"Right now I'm mainly cleaning up the store and clearing out all the things that can be used to save costs. I'll do some simple renovations in the store later. I don't need any help for now!"

"Anyway, if you have any questions, just let us know and we will do our best!" Cheng Song patted his chest and promised.

"You kid, you're not getting paid for volunteering to help out like this. I don't have anything good to give you in return!" Qin Man joked with a smile.

Cheng Song scratched his head and smiled awkwardly: "We are friends! Friends should help each other!"

Maybe he will be your brother-in-law in the future!

Cheng Song thought silently in his heart, and then shared his chicken leg with Jiang Lian.

"Take it and eat it! I'm tired of eating this chicken leg!"

Although he looked disgusted, Qin Man could not hide his little thoughts.

However, Qin Man did not point it out. People who came from the era of free love would not become stumbling blocks in others' pursuit of love.

So far, Cheng Song has performed very well. He takes the initiative to accompany Jiang Lian to and from get off work every day and provides basic protection. His patience deserves praise. ..

Being nice to others intentionally or unintentionally is also a good virtue.

Besides, Jiang Lian is now old enough to fall in love, and her two brothers have no objection, so what opinion can she, as the second sister-in-law, have?

On weekends, Qin Man and Jiang Cong cleaned up the store, tidying up every corner, throwing away what should be thrown away and keeping what should be kept.

At that time, you will have to buy a double-door refrigerator to store fresh meat ingredients.

There are some second-hand electrical appliances in the electrical appliance store. They do not affect normal use and are cheap. Qin Man can get one from the store when the time comes.

Jiang Lian and Cheng Song also came over to help. In order to reward them in the evening, Qin Man went out to buy ingredients for making spicy hot pot.

There are only a few fixed ingredients for making malatang. If you want to eat spicy food, pig heart, pig lungs, and pig liver are essential. Beef balls, fish balls, and chicken feet are also indispensable. Beef balls and fish balls can be made by yourself, which is very convenient.

There are even more vegetarian options. If you can’t satisfy your needs, you can make it yourself. The most important thing is the recipe of the soup base and the braising water.

After buying ingredients from the market, I cut and marinated them, skewered them with bamboo sticks, and soaked them in the marinated water that had been prepared in advance.

When making your own chili oil, scallions, ginger, and garlic are essential. Sour radishes and sour beans are also seasonings.

At that time, the charges will be based on the number of sticks. Different pigments will be painted on the heads of the sticks. Different colors represent different prices. Consumers can choose by themselves, and the amount they pay will be determined by the number of sticks they order.
