Traveling through farming with the system, I cooked delicious food in ancient times

It was just past breakfast time when the sweet smell of butter and pasta came from the kitchen of Liuxiang Snacks.

Chen and Lou Lan'er increasingly felt that Shu Xi's recent research on new fruits had reached a semi-devastated state, but no one could bear to interrupt her.

Trying out new products requires kneading a lot of dough, and this physical work was left to Lu Da.

Xiao Qing will help her make suggestions for improvements in styling and color, while Lou Lan'er will be responsible for tasting.

Most of the new customers who came to the store recently came for her egg yolk cakes and lotus cakes, which gave Shui Xi the idea of ​​selling the afternoon tea set model of [takeaway drinks + fruit shortcakes].

Basic black coffee and milk coffee, which most people in the town have drunk before, are not new. She has improved the coffee and plans to add a "Snow Top Coffee".

This snow top is not ice cream, but the pastry, that is, cream.

This coffee she sells is slightly more expensive than tea, a cup costs 5 cents. It was originally sold as a breakfast with donuts.

Now with the addition of snow topping, she sells it for 8 cents a cup, but with the egg yolk cake/lotus cake for 10 cents each, the set meal only costs 15 cents.

Ordinary coffee + egg yolk cake/lotus cake, the set meal is sold for 12 yuan a piece.

In the afternoon, Mao Xi went to the town to find a carpenter to renovate the old house, and agreed to complete it before the New Year.

After the negotiation was completed, she planned to change one of the private rooms into a cafe style so that diners could experience the tasting inside, so she took the workers to the store to check and measure.

Based on her memories of the cafe's style, Mao Xi simply expressed her needs for repairs to the private room to the carpenters.

"Master, I hope to lengthen this place by the window and make it a window for taking food along the street. I will also lay a wooden floor outside the window so that I can put two tables and a big umbrella..."

Although the carpenters were puzzled, they all wrote it down one by one.

Just after seeing off the carpenters, gourmet traveler Mr. Ma Boluo came to Mao Xi's store.

Seeing her making snow-top coffee, I ordered a [Snow-top coffee + lotus cake] set meal, plus a coconut jelly.

Mao Xi also specifically asked him if he wanted to add sugar to the coffee, and Mabolo said he wanted sugar-free.

When the meal was served, Mao Xi personally served it. She tried to say something in English: "Mr. Marlboro, your coffee set is ready."

Ma Boluo really understood. He was surprised and said: "Miss Ah Miao, do you know Europa?"

Mao Xi didn't admit it. She pretended that she could do it, but she really didn't have the ability to talk to Ma Boluo in English. She smiled and shook her head, saying that she had heard it from the crew on the Star Jue.

Hearing the local accent, Ma Boluo felt cordial and asked Ma Xi to sit down and chatted with her.

Ma Boluo poured the snow-topped cream with a spoon and said: "There are also many snacks in my hometown made of cream."

"We have a snack called Crispy Abalone, which is also milk puff pastry. You can order it to try next time you miss home."

Ma Boluo asked: "Miss Ah Shi, the idea of ​​combining cream with drinks is too bold. How did you come up with this idea? Didn't you feel it was a conflict from the beginning?"

Mao Xi secretly laughed. Before this time travel, milk tea shops all over the street were selling milk cap/cream/cheese + milk tea. This market-proven tea recipe was easily accessible! .

"Mr. Marpolo, this coffee with cream is just elementary. I'll make another coffee for you to make sure you've never had it before."

Then, she brought a cup of milk, a cup of black coffee, and a cup of black tea, and added milk to the black coffee and black tea respectively.

"Shopkeeper, what does this mean? Milk coffee and milk tea?"

Mao Xi nodded mysteriously, then poured half of the milk tea and half of the milk coffee into a new bamboo cup, and added a small spoonful of sugar to mix.

"Mr. Ma, this is called Yuanyang milk tea. Can you try the taste?"

Ma Boluo took a sip. The taste combined the freshness of tea and the mellowness of coffee, allowing him to experience the essence of the two beverages from Huaiguo and Nanzhou Islands at the same time.

"Friend, you are awesome! This Yuanyang milk tea is so delicious!"

"Mr. Ma, although some people only love coffee and some prefer milk tea, when the two are added together, they have a new flavor, each with its own merits."

Ma Boluo was stunned for a moment after being "fooled" by Ma Xi.

"But Miss Ah Miao, the Huai State is a big tea-producing country, and the people drink a lot of tea. This coffee is only sold well near Lihua Town, and not many people like to drink it."

"Mr. Mabolo, do you want to do business with me and sell the coffee beans from my shop to various counties?"

Ma Boluo did not agree or refuse directly, but said that he would think about it again. The purpose of his trip to Da Huai Country was just to walk around and eat delicious food everywhere.

By chance, Nalan Jue came to the store and saw several cups of coffee on the Marlboro table, so he asked Mao Xi why there was a tea aroma in the coffee.

Mao Xi brewed a cup of Yuanyang milk tea for Nalan Jue.

Although Nalan Jue is not a fan of coffee, this Yuanyang milk tea suits his taste very well.

"Hello friends, do you think coffee can be sold in Beidu and other states and counties?" Ma Boluo asked Nalan Jue.

"Why, are you interested in coffee trading and want to do this business?"

Ma Boluo shook his head, indicating that he was not doing business.

"Friend, you misunderstood. I just want to spread the word about delicious food while traveling. If the coffee tastes good, there will naturally be people who can appreciate it."

Nalan Jue knew that Ma Polo was a traveling gourmet, and he was worried that no one would promote the coffee beans he just bought from Huolu Island.

"Mr. Ma, why don't I open a cafe in Beidu? Aren't you about to travel? Next stop, go to Beidu and promote coffee for me."

"Isn't this just the same thing? You just want me to help you sell coffee beans! I'm not a hired worker." Marlboro was used to being free, but when he heard that he wanted to sell something, he became entangled again.

Mao Xi understood that in fact, Ma Boluo, with his foreign face, would attract traffic as long as he stopped at Beidu Market. As long as he was selling things, people would definitely believe that they were foreign goods.

"Then you think about it and come find me at home when you have time."

After Ma Boluo left, Nalan Jue turned to Ma Xi and said, "Miss Ah Ma, could you please roast the green coffee beans for me? I hired two tea roasting masters to roast the beans, but the results were not very good. .”

"Mr. Nalan, we both thought of it together. Just now I was trying to persuade Ma Boluo to sell coffee beans for me."

"How about we jointly open a coffee bean workshop, and I'll buy the green beans and you'll be responsible for roasting the beans and distributing them nationwide?"

When Mao Xi heard this, she realized that this business was really big. Although she had some funds on hand, they were saved for opening a restaurant, so she was a little hesitant.

To be conservative, Mao Xi proposed a compromise plan: "Master Nalan, why don't you open a coffee bean workshop, and I will be responsible for instructing your master to roast the beans and control the quality, and you can just pay me a consulting fee. I still have a restaurant to open here, so I’m very busy.”

"That's okay, then it's up to you! Miss Ami, happy cooperation!" Nalan Jue raised the Yuanyang black tea and tasted it.

.

Late at night, in the house of Miss Shaoyao in Tianxiang shed.

Shaoyao was wearing single clothes, leaning against the window and looking at the moon. A gust of cold wind hit her, and she suddenly felt chilly.

After lobbying according to the method Mao Xi taught her, Chun's mother really agreed to give her a commission from the money spent on selling drinks.

Now, as long as she sells more wine, she should be able to collect enough money to redeem herself before the end of the year.

From the room of the oiran Peony next door, the singing and singing of swallows could be heard. She held tightly the yellow jade mandarin duck that promised her love, closed the window and recalled all the tenderness she had with Meng Lang in the past.
