Forget it. Let's make it Chinese. Take a look at your own shop. It's 40 or 50 square meters. The area is not very big, but it's not very small. There is a huge shortage of staff. At present, the only people who can use them are themselves.

A cold wind came through the gate. It looked like rain. Autumn rain and cold. It won't be long before winter.

In winter? By the way, hot pot is the most comfortable in winter. Let's open a small hot pot shop. We don't have to compete with Hakka's stir fry all over the world. We don't have to stir fry in the kitchen all day to make a whole body of cooking fumes.

Delicious hot pot, the key lies in its soup and bottom material. When I was studying abroad, whenever I was greedy, I made an appointment with several friends to make hot pot at home. No matter how to mix soup or base material, I am quite good at it.

Now the most urgent task is to order a batch of copper pots, under which charcoal can be put. Some hotpots are only fun when people gather around to eat. However, Shen Qing thinks that most of the hotpots are made into small ones, while large ones are also necessary. They are made into Mandarin Duck style. Two kinds of soups can be put at the same time. Just a few of them are OK. After all, some shippers have only one or two people. It's expensive and wasteful for them to ask for a big pot.

Shen Qing goes out in a hurry. Where is the blacksmith's shop? It should be close to the carpenter's shop. Go that way first, and look as you go.

When I got to the carpenter's shop, I asked Uncle Liu. It turned out that Uncle Wang, the blacksmith, didn't have a shop. He just made iron at home. Everyone in the town knows that anyone who needs to make a knife or a pot will go directly to his home, which is on West Street.

Continue to walk west and find Uncle Wang's house soon. Shen Qing said her request, and the request was made of copper. Uncle Wang was in trouble. This copper is hard to find, and the quantity she wants is so large.

"Uncle Wang, I see daggers and swords used by people. They are white and bright. What are they made of?" Shen Qing believes that it must not be stainless steel. In this era, stainless steel has not been invented.

"Oh, that's fine iron. I can play that. " Uncle Wang is very familiar with this.

"Can my pots be made of fine iron?" Think about it. In the past, a copper hot pot was not cheap, let alone now. Refined iron is also good. The cooking pot at home is not even refined iron.

"This is OK. You need forty taels of silver in all. I can deliver them in ten days Uncle Wang estimated the price.

Forty Liang! It's not cheap. There was also a promise that Aunt Huang would buy a house before the end of the month. That was fifty-two or ninety-two. Now there are only three or four taels of silver in hand. It's not easy to start from scratch!

He gave all the silver in his hand as deposit to Uncle Wang. The plan still needs to be implemented step by step. People think of the way. They will always get through this difficulty.

Go back, all the way is full of worries. Problems that can be solved with money are not problems, but the key is that there is no money. This is a big problem.

When I came to the gate of Hakka, I was startled by manager Xie's "Miss Shen". Looking up, manager Xie is standing at the door, smiling flatteringly at himself. That smile gives Shen Qing goose bumps.

"Miss Shen, your last dish was really wonderful. At the beginning, there were more people and less people to eat. We also scolded our restaurant for starting to serve those indecent things. Later, however, the magistrate's wife of Nanxi Prefecture came to this place. She was pregnant with Liujia. When she saw that she wanted to eat it, she was addicted to it. Before leaving, I packed a lot of them. Before leaving, I said that I would talk about other dishes in a few days. As soon as the other guests met, they all tried to taste it. Now the chicken claws are better than the meat on the chicken Shopkeeper Xie is also happy for the continuous flow of guests these days. Besides, there are guests not only at noon and evening, but also at noon and afternoon. If the restaurant's business is better, its reward will be more.

Shen Qing listened, but also just a smile. After thousands of years of professional chefs' continuous development and research, the products are better than those of the ancients.

Eyes leaped over manager Xie and looked in a little. It was full of guests.

Shen Qing suddenly regretted that the original contract was to sell recipes. If only she could cooperate and get a share. There are almost a plate of Golden Phoenix claws at each table. In the long run, it will definitely earn more from the share.

When he was annoyed, he heard manager Xie bow and say, "Miss Shen, I'm short of three new dishes this month. When are you free to come in? "

Yes, according to the contract, there are still three dishes in this month, and three dishes are forty-five Liang. At least Uncle Wang has enough money for cooking.

Thinking of this, Shen Qing raised her legs to the restaurant and said, "I'll go now. I'll just go home to make lunch when I'm finished."

"Ah, Miss Shen, my young master is not here now? You've made it and no one has tasted it, have you? " Manager Xie doesn't dare to stop Shen Qing. He goes inside with her. He says while he is in a hurry.

"It's OK. I'll teach you first. I'll wait for your young master to come back. I'll try it with him. I can directly correct what's wrong." With that, he ignored manager Xie and went straight to the kitchen.

Shopkeeper Xie petrified on the spot. Try it with the young master? That's dinner together? Does Miss Shen not know who her master is, or is she a fearless and ignorant person?Into the kitchen, Zhang steward a see is Shen Qing, a smile to meet up, and other people, is all low head back out.

It's only a few days. It's too different. There is a saying that is true: the face is earned by oneself, not by others. Now everyone is more respectful and cautious than before. It's their master and supervisor who have recognized their ability. Although this skill is to cook, it means some food patent.

In a hurry, I had no idea of the new dishes. I closed my eyes and thought about their original menu. I went around the kitchen again. How many delicious food are missing without pepper and Chinese prickly ash!

Suddenly I saw a big water tank with several big carp swimming happily. I remember I didn't see this last time.

When Zhang Guanshi saw Shen Qinglai, she knew that she must have come to teach her new dishes. Seeing that she had been wandering in the kitchen, I didn't know what she was looking for, and I didn't want to disturb her, so I waited quietly.

"Uncle steward, don't you often have this fish?" Shen Qing asked, pointing to the fish in the tank.

"Few people eat fish here. Two days ago, the magistrate came to order a dish with fish. He said that when his wife was happy, she wanted to eat fish and our new golden chicken feet. Let's get ready. " Steward Zhang told us all he knew.
