Chuan Shu Qi Leng: I own a department store

After leaving the guest house, Xu Wanning went straight to the restaurant, taking three large buckets of cleaned crayfish with her.

It was only ten o'clock in the morning, and the first batch of guests in the restaurant had not yet arrived.

So, when they saw the little boss coming with three big buckets of stuff, everyone gathered around him.

When she saw the crayfish inside, Xu Wanning successfully received several gasping sounds.

"Little boss, what is this? Is this thing really edible?"

"It looks so scary, and it has a beard. Is it a bug?"

"Isn't eating bugs a custom in Yunnan and Guizhou? We people in Beijing have never heard of anyone who likes to eat bugs!"

Xu Wanning was very satisfied with everyone's doubts about her.

The more doubtful you are now, the more real your reaction will be when you eat something delicious later.

"Today I'm going to show you my hand and treat you to our Xujiapu Restaurant's new signature dish."

Dongzi helped Xu Wanning carry three barrels of crayfish to the backyard.

The smell of crayfish is very strong, and the semi-enclosed space in the kitchen is not conducive to the smell. In more than an hour, the restaurant will welcome the first batch of lunch guests. If the smell of crayfish cannot be dissipated, It will indirectly affect the dishes to be prepared later.

Of course, the most important reason is that Xu Wanning deliberately wanted to let the smell of crayfish out. Only such a tempting delicacy would attract those old men to ask about it.

Just like the previous braised food.

Braised meat has now become the signature dish of Xu's shop. In just one week since its release, the sales have almost surpassed the one-month sales of the restaurant's other signature dishes.

This is the amount of sales supported by kelp knots and vegetarian dishes alone when offal such as chicken feet, duck feet, duck intestines and pig intestines are extremely scarce.

Xu Wanning has full confidence in crayfish.

There are many different brands of crayfish seasonings stored in her space, which she bought in the supermarket in her previous life, just to try different flavors and strive to make the best crayfish.

But after many experiments, Xu Wanning felt that even the crayfish base, which had the best reputation and the highest reviews, lacked a bit of flavor and was not perfect.

Therefore, she prepared her own crayfish base.

How delicious is it?

Anyway, no one who has eaten it says it is not delicious.

She even set a record of selling thousands of kilograms of crayfish in one week.

Now in the 70s when supplies are scarce and the economy is backward, her goal is to sell [-] kilograms of crayfish throughout the summer.

But now, she did not bring out the ready-made base ingredients that she had made before from the space, but stir-fried the ingredients on the spot.

Only the ingredients copied on the spot can taste delicious.

Of course, there are several condiments that are not available in the market today, and she brought them out from the space.

However, she carefully packed all the condiments in glass jars she bought from the department store, with labels that only she could understand. In this way, she was not afraid of anyone seeing condiments that did not belong to this era. , thus causing unnecessary trouble.

Copying for base materials is a very tedious process. An hour passed before Xu Wanning was about to complete the last step of the base materials.

At this time, there were already more than ten tables of guests sitting in the front hall.

"Manager Su, what new kind of delicacies has your restaurant developed? I could smell it even when I was sitting at my house. I didn't let my family cook lunch just to have a taste. Don't be stingy. Wait. I must sell more soon!"

"Who isn't? We all come here because of the smell. Manager Su, we are all old customers. You must not favor one over the other. You must give me at least ten pounds!"

"You know what you're selling, but you're asking for ten pounds? Give me twelve pounds!"

I know everyone is joking, but Dongzi is still very happy to see that her sister-in-law's delicious food has the support of so many diners.

"Everyone, our little boss said that not everyone can appreciate this delicacy today. Although it smells good, everyone may not be used to it, so when it is ready, we will Each table will be given one portion for everyone to try, and if you can accept it, we will sell it to everyone at a discounted price, which is also a thank you for your support."

"Sure! You little boss is so happy!"

Last time's kelp, this time's new delicacy, in order to give everyone a better experience, we will give it to everyone at any cost. This pattern is not something ordinary people can have.

About half an hour later, everyone had almost eaten the dishes they ordered, and Xu Wanning's first pot of crayfish was finally finished.

She got a total of more than 30 kilograms of crayfish at Sister-in-law Chen's house, but some of them died before cleaning, so Xu Wanning threw them away directly.

The dead crayfish tasted good, but the most important thing was that it was not very clean. Xu Wanning was worried that there were things like paragonimiasis in it, so she would rather not eat it than lose money.

After all, people in the 70s had basically never been vaccinated and their antibodies were very weak. She was not willing to affect the health of others just to earn a few more dollars.

Even potential factors.

So after picking out thirty kilograms of crayfish, they actually weighed just over twenty kilograms.

One pot can only cook eight or nine kilograms. In order to pursue the taste, Xu Wanning added some vegetarian vegetables to match, and the pot was filled to the brim.

When the diners urged for the fifth time, Dongzi finally couldn't stand the pressure and came to the backyard to ask about the situation.

As soon as he stepped into the backyard, before he could ask, the aroma that hit his nostrils made him salivate.

"Sister-in-law, this smells too good!"

The smell makes people salivate just by smelling it. Even if they know that what is cooked in it is actually bugs, there are probably many bold and greedy people who are willing to try it.

"Are you in a hurry up front?"

Dongzi patted his thigh: "That's right! Sister-in-law, how long do we have to wait before we can eat it?"

"It can be served now. Count how many tables there are now, and put it on plates as evenly as possible and take it out."

Dongzi looked at the pot full of food. He originally thought that there would be some leftovers after all the food was given away, so they could have a full meal.

But after delivering a portion to all tables, Dongzi discovered that the pot had also bottomed out.

"No, I haven't even had a chance to taste what it tastes like!"

"Don't worry, I still have about ten kilograms of crayfish here, and I can cook two pots of them. I guarantee that you can all eat them today."

"Okay! Then I'll have someone take it outside first."

Soon, more than 20 plates of crayfish were served on the table.

Some tables came just for lunch. When they arrived, although they smelled a very attractive fragrance, it was not as strong as those who came first.

"What is this? Why does it look like an insect?"
