Daddy's Gourmet Store

Chapter 228 They Won't Sell
It's delicious. The dishes in the store are hot, as always.

Before leaving, many customers who couldn't buy in the queue couldn't help expressing to Huang Tao again that they wanted to increase the portion.

Thirty servings of West Lake Vinegar Fish is really pitiful!

Can not meet the needs of our customers at all!

Although the portions of other dishes are slightly more than those of West Lake Vinegar Fish, they cannot be eaten by every customer, so that is too little!

It's just that when everyone heard Huang Tao explain that the shop is a bit small and the manpower is limited...

What else can be done?

I can only forgive Huang Tao where he is!
of course.

They also expressed that they would continue to support him in the future, and come to line up to buy again at night.

I hope to be favored by the goddess of luck, and I can buy something from a really delicious store at night.

As for the popular Honey Juice Fire Fang, office workers dare not expect extravagant expectations!

When it was close to one o'clock in the afternoon, the customers who stayed in the restaurant also left.

Several guests who ate crab fried cakes cleaned up the crab shells on the table and sent the plates to the exclusive bowls and chopsticks baskets next to the automatic dishwasher.

They do a little more work.

Huang Tao may be able to fry one more fried crab cake!

Don't let Huang Tao and the others delay cooking time because of such trivial matters!
Ding Suqin put the bowls and chopsticks in the box into the dishwasher, and took a mop to mop the floor.

Lin Zifeng cleaned up the kitchen as usual.

Huang Tao is going to steam the honey sauce that will be sold at night first, so as not to miss the normal business hours at night.

of course.

He didn't intend to do these preparations himself, but instructed Xu Hao, a competent officer, to let him do it.

According to Huang Tao's request, Xu Hao put the cleaned fire square with the whole piece of meat skin down on the chopping board, and used a kitchen knife to mark the fire square with cross-shaped knives at intervals of [-] centimeters.

Don't cut through the fatty parts.

Leave some fat.

After all the knives were changed by the fire party, Xu Hao followed Huang Tao's request and put the top meat skin down, and put them one by one into the large basin prepared in advance.

Then add hot water to the basin, not above the top.

Pour in Huang Tao's rice wine that was poured in advance and set aside.

"Well, it's ok, now put on the steamer and steam it on high heat!"

Seeing that Xu Hao had finished all this, Huang Tao nodded in satisfaction, and guided Xu Hao to the next step.

"Yes, got it."

Xu Hao nodded in agreement, put these fire cubes into the steamer one by one, and steamed them over high heat.

"Haozi, I'll leave it to you to watch over here. After an hour, take out the fire, decant the soup, and then..."

Huang Tao thought for a while, and continued: "Let's talk about the next steps later. I'm going to visit Brother Jiang next door to ask something, and I'll leave it to you here."

Xu Hao smiled and agreed, "Okay, boss, you can rest assured!"

After Huang Tao washed his handles, took off his chef's clothes and hung them on the hanger, he walked out of his shop and went to the door of Jiang Guowei's convenience store next door.

He smiled at Jiang Guowei, who was busy with customers, and shouted, "Brother Jiang..."

Jiang Guowei looked up and saw that it was Huang Tao, he was a little surprised and said, "Hey, Boss Huang! Are you out for a walk?"

"No."

He shook his head with a smile, and then stated his real purpose for coming this time: "I have something to do, and I want to ask you, Brother Jiang."

"That's right! Then come in quickly, sit down for a while, I'll be fine in a while."

Hearing this, Jiang Guowei hurriedly greeted him enthusiastically, and then called out to his wife in the back room: "Wen Li, please bring a chair for Boss Huang to sit on."

Chen Wenli, who had just washed the dishes and chopsticks, heard this, and quickly moved a folding chair over, opened it, and said, "Boss Huang, come and sit here."

"It's troublesome, sister-in-law." He thanked and took his seat.

Chen Wenli shook her hand to express that she was not troublesome, then smiled and said: "Your brother Jiang and I were just talking about the delicious West Lake vinegar fish and honey sauce fire recipe you made, but the portion is too small, so many people lined up We can’t buy any of them, if you hadn’t reserved them for us, we definitely wouldn’t be able to buy them at noon today, and we would have to thank you after all!”

"Sister-in-law, look at what you said. We are all neighbors next door. Brother Jiang, tell me, I will definitely keep it for you."

Huang Tao was amused and said the same jokingly.

Jiang Guowei listened, turned his head and raised his eyebrows at his wife, as if to say: Look, I, Lao Jiang, still have a lot of face.

Chen Wenli glanced at him, didn't bother to talk to him, turned around and went to the shelf beside him to fetch drinks for Huang Tao.

At this moment, after Jiang Guowei settled the bill for the customer, he pulled his chair to Huang Tao's side, and asked curiously with a smile, "Boss Huang, what are you asking me for?"

He smiled and said: "Brother Jiang, it's like this. I recently wanted to expand the shop, but I couldn't find a suitable one for a while. I thought that the house on the right side of my shop has been unoccupied for a long time. I heard that it has moved away. You Do you have their contact information?"

She then explained with some embarrassment: "At first I planned to ask my landlord, but I remember he said before that he had never met anyone from the house next door, and I was just talking to you in this old street in the west of the city." Brother is more familiar, I want to talk and ask."

When Jiang Guowei heard it, he understood it all at once.

This is to rent the ground floor of that building to expand the pavement.

He had a little impression of that family.

However, he looked at his wife who was listening quietly and said, "Wen Li, don't you know Aunt Lin very well? You should always have her contact information, right?"

Like the old buildings in these old streets, neighbors are the closest.

In the past, the three families did not see each other when they looked up and looked down. They occasionally got together to enjoy the shade and chat. Later, after the middle one was sold, Jiang Guowei's parents also bought a house and moved out. Later, Jiang Guowei came back and opened a convenience store here.

The two families also became acquainted again.

Especially Chen Wenli and Aunt Lin got very close.

Although they are a generation behind, the two get along very well, and often make appointments to go shopping and buy clothes together.

Chen Wenli was also listening to what Huang Tao said just now, and now she heard her husband calling her, so she said in a bit of embarrassment: "Aunt Chen and I will send each other a message to greet each other during the New Year and holidays. I also have her mobile phone number." Save it, but I don't think the chances of this matter are high, if her family is willing to sell the house, they probably would have sold it in the years when they moved out."

The two-story buildings here are all left over from the past.

Aunt Lin's family has lived here for decades.

Later, because of his son's marriage, he bought a house elsewhere, but the two elders did not go with him.

Only later, because the daughter-in-law gave birth and had to help take care of the child during the confinement, Aunt Lin and the old couple went to their son to take care of the daughter-in-law during the confinement.

In a few years, I will help pick up and drop off the children to and from school.

Later, her son gave birth to a second child.

So the two elders gradually seldom come back here.

I moved away six years ago and never came back to live here.

Huang Tao had actually thought about this question too.

The houses here are generally passed down from the grandparents' generation. After the children and grandchildren get rich, they all move away. In difficult times, they will become their temporary safe haven.

For the Lin family next door, the two-story building has deep feelings. If it is not a last resort, they will not sell it.

However, he didn't intend to buy this two-story building either!
Although it is an old house with a long history, the price is not cheap. After all, this street is an ancient street!

He doesn't plan to buy it at the moment, he just wants to rent it.

It is also clear that this will not be easy.

But right now, the house next door is indeed his best choice at the moment.

He figured he'd have to try.

He smiled and said: "Sister-in-law, I know it's not easy, and I didn't intend to buy this two-story building, so I just wanted to rent it first. If I want to rent other shops, my side I must move to the store, but I am a bit reluctant, if you give Aunt Lin's contact information, I will contact you and give myself a chance."

When Chen Wenli heard that she wanted to rent rather than buy, she was relieved.

But when Huang Tao said that if she chose another shop, she would have to move the shop here, she became anxious.

She really likes to eat the food from Zhenyao shop, not only the taste is good, but also very appetizing to her.

Not only for her and Lao Jiang's appetite, but also for her son's appetite.

Because the son also likes to eat, the mother and son have a common topic, and their relationship has become better than before.

Goodness!
If the delicious restaurant moves out because of this, it will not be easy for them to want to eat this delicious food again.

Because of this, she will become a sinner in the entire old street in the west of the city!
Originally, she also wanted to help, thinking that she would help Huang Tao call Aunt Lin later, and find out what Aunt Lin said.

If the other party is unwilling, she can try to persuade her with reason and emotion.

Just when he was about to say that he could give Huang Tao the contact information, Jiang Guowei thought that his wife was unwilling to help, so he gave his wife a questioning look of "I agreed to help you", and said anxiously: "Wen Li! Give me a link." It's not difficult to ask about the method, you can give Boss Huang a call and ask."

"I didn't say I wouldn't give it to me, I just said I would give it, so you didn't interrupt me!"

Chen Wenli crossed Jiang Guowei, turned her head to look at Huang Tao with a smile, and explained her hesitation just now: "Boss Huang, don't blame me for thinking too much, I will report Aunt Lin's number to you right now."

After speaking, she went to the drawer at the counter, took out her mobile phone, clicked on the address book, and began to look for the list.

Huang Tao saw him, and smiled slightly: "It's okay, sister-in-law, you are too polite, and what you asked is what you should do. I am already very happy that you are willing to help, thank you."

"It's all a matter of little effort, so be polite."

Chen Wenli quickly found Aunt Lin's number and reported it to Huang Tao.

Huang Tao quickly wrote it down on his phone and saved it.

I wanted to call the other party right away.

But I learned that Aunt Lin has the habit of taking a nap, so it is not easy to disturb her now.

Even though Huang Tao is eager about this matter, he should save the call at night.

Say.

Chen Wenli should have called Aunt Lin in advance to tell Aunt Lin about this.

He was going to wait for them to make contact before making a call, so that he could explain his intentions when the time came.

After expressing his gratitude to Jiang Guowei and his wife again, he went back to the shop.
