Five days later, Ye Zhiqiu drove his motorcycle to No. 32 Jardine's Corner. After parking the car, he took out the key and opened the rolling shutter door.
So I took out a bunch of chickens that had been processed and marinated in the space and put them in the refrigerator, and also put a batch in the freezer.
He lit the fire to boil water. After the water boiled, he came to a table, sat on a chair with his legs crossed, and slowly made tea to drink.
He has been very busy these days. He made fried chicken for his family, visited his third uncle's house, beat his naughty son, and found time to process a lot of chickens in the space, marinated them and stored them in bubbles!
Then he went to buy a large amount of beer and soda and refrigerated them in the space so that he could drink them at any time.
How much does Ye Zhiqiu not want to have guests?
Now in Hong Kong, the price of slaughtered and processed chicken is two Hong Kong dollars per pound, while his fried chicken legs are five dollars each, crispy large wings are five dollars each, fried chicken racks are five dollars per portion, crispy chicken fillets are three dollars each, and lemon chicken feet are three dollars per portion. Beer outside is one dollar a bottle, but he sells it for two dollars here. Soda is fifty cents a bottle, but he sells it for one dollar and fifty cents!
The main point is that it is so expensive that no one wants to try it! He made the price sign very large so that passers-by can see it at a glance. Then who would dare to enter this black shop?
So Ye Zhiqiu spent the whole morning drinking tea, smoking and listening to the radio. He was having a very pleasant time!
He planned to fry some chicken racks and a few chicken legs for himself and drink beer as lunch, so the first time he opened the shop was for himself to eat.
One bad thing about having an open kitchen is that when you fry food, the smell will spread out!
In this way, people passing by can smell the fragrance. Many people stopped when they smelled the fragrance, but when they saw the price tag of five yuan for the fried chicken legs, they shook their heads and left.
You can almost buy a chicken for five yuan. Isn’t it more cost-effective to buy a chicken than a chicken leg?
However, there is no shortage of rich people in this world, and two young girls dressed in bright and beautiful clothes walked into the store.
"Boss, what are you selling here? It smells so good!"
Ye Zhiqiu was speechless. There was such a big sign at the door, and the price list was written in chalk with such big words. Are these two girls nearsighted?
But since a customer had come, he couldn't send them away, so he could only force a smile and say, "Pretty girl, I sell fried chicken snacks here. You can take a look at the menu on the table. There are pictures and prices on it."
"Wow, this chicken drumstick looks delicious. Boss, fry one for each of us. This whole chicken wing looks delicious too. Give us one each. I've never had fried chicken racks before. Give us two servings, and a chicken fillet to try. I'd also like two bottles of soda, please. Please keep them frozen, thank you."
Ye Zhiqiu was stunned. He quickly went out to explain, "Pretty girl, the fried chicken here is different from others. It requires a lot of expensive ingredients, so the price..."
The round-faced girl handed over a fifty-dollar bill and said with a smile, "Hehe, boss, you don't need to change it. Please give it to us first. We've been shopping for a long time and we're hungry."
Ye Zhiqiu took the money and replied with a smile, "Okay, I'll give it to you right away!"
For the sake of money, it would be a waste not to earn some. Ye Zhiqiu didn't say any more nonsense. It was obvious that these two girls were not short of money!
The deep-fried chicken drumsticks he had prepared for himself were just ready, so he took them out to drain the oil and started frying other crispy chicken wings, chicken fillets, and chicken racks.
Frying takes time, so he sprinkled flour on two large chicken legs, opened two bottles of iced soda, put in straws, and brought them to the table.
"My two beautiful ladies, this is our restaurant's secret royal deep-fried chicken drumstick. Please enjoy!"
The two women stared at the chicken drumstick, which was bigger than their open palms, and were speechless for a long time!
"It's a really big chicken drumstick, boss, you're amazing! Don't even mention whether it tastes good or not. Just frying the chicken drumstick into such a big size shows your cooking skills are truly amazing!"
Ye Zhiqiu was very happy to hear this. You know, cooking has always been his strength in his heart, especially when someone appreciates it.
He began to talk non-stop, "There's nothing we can do about it. In order to lock in the juice and marinate the chicken drumsticks, they need to go through multiple steps. So, making them like this makes it easier to marinate. After they are skewered, they need to be shaped and then fried to achieve this effect. Eating is not just about the taste, but also about the appearance of the food, so that it can achieve the desired color, aroma and taste!"
Unfortunately, after Ye Zhiqiu said so much, the two girls had already started to eat the big chicken legs. The recipe was developed with many spices, and it was really enjoyable to eat!
After the family had eaten it once, my second uncle’s family also wanted to try it. Later, when my third uncle’s family came back, everyone wanted to try it, and they all praised it highly!
Uncle San's family hurried back to meet him, and when they left, they took with them the pickled spices prepared by Ye Zhiqiu. It is very simple to make chicken legs and chicken racks, but the key is that the recipe is very important.
The second and third uncles thought that this was a recipe that could be passed down in the family, and asked him to keep it secret, so they only wanted the prepared ingredients and not his recipe.
Large families are more secretive about things like recipes and won't ask him to share something just because he thinks it's good.
After all, the more people know about it, the greater the possibility that the formula will be leaked!
Ye Zhiqiu was not worried about this problem. After all, he configured and pickled various ingredients in the space and never demonstrated them to others in the real world. There was no chance for anyone to steal the secret recipe, so he could only slowly prepare a low-end version!
"Boss, this is the best chicken drumstick I've ever eaten! It's truly a palace secret recipe. Could you please fry five more of the same thing for me? I want to take them home for my family to try!"
"I want three servings too. This is such delicious food. If I don't bring it back to my dad, he'll definitely be mad for days."
Ye Zhiqiu was dumbfounded. He blew up the things behind for the two of them in a depressed mood and sent them up. Then he lost interest in talking.
Because he was busy frying things, these two rich girls took on the role of several customers. They really made people love and hate them!
Ye Zhiqiu himself was also very awkward. He liked to hear others praise his craftsmanship, but he didn't want to work...
They ordered eight portions each, which he fried for quite a while. After they finished eating, they were discussing which one they liked better besides the big chicken drumstick!
“I think even though there’s not much meat on the chicken rack, it’s super satisfying!”
"Don't you think the crispy skin of this chicken wing is delicious? The chicken cutlet is also tender and juicy. I really like it."
"I only ate two pieces of chicken fillet. Would you like another one?"
Upon hearing this, Ye Zhiqiu hurriedly said to the two of them, "Ladies, the food has been packed. You should hurry and send it home! Although the tinfoil wrapping can keep it warm, it won't taste as good if it gets cold. That would be a waste of food!"
After hearing Ye Zhiqiu's words, the two stopped discussing. After paying the money, they really picked up the plastic takeaway bags and left with their things back home!
Ye Zhiqiu wiped his sweat. It was really not easy for him. These two girls were worth several customers! The money they paid alone was a hundred and ninety-four yuan, which was an average person's monthly salary!
