The Culinary Tycoon

Sizzling, sizzling, sizzling——

A few skewers of pork belly and chicken tenderloin were placed on the hot iron plate, and there was a sound of sizzling oil.After a while, the oil in the pork belly was slowly roasted, and there was a burst of meaty smell in the air.

Yu Qingze kept turning and roasting the pork belly and chicken fillets on the iron plate. Seeing that the meat was almost cooked, he sprinkled five-spice powder, cumin powder, chili powder, and pepper powder on it. Then brush with his special layer of sauce, turn it over a little bit, and you're done.

The burnt aroma of barbecue and the smell of cumin filled the entire hall of Jufulou, and all the guests could smell it.

"Is this the smell of barbecue? Hey, buddy, do you still sell barbecue? Let's order one too." A customer asked.

Xiaoshu also couldn't help sniffing, almost salivating, he replied with a smile: "No, Jufulou doesn't cook barbecue, the boss made it specially for entertaining friends today."

The guest said regretfully: "Really? It's a pity, I want to eat it after smelling it."

At this moment, when it was almost time for dinner, there were already seven or eight tables of guests sitting in the hall, all of them were afraid that there would be no seats, so they waited slowly while drinking tea.

Yu Qingze and the other heads of the house finished discussing the matter in the afternoon, so they called them down and went to the backyard to watch him make teppanyaki together.

Master Liao picked up a skewer of pork belly that had been roasted slightly browned, the fat meat was transparent, and cumin grains could still be seen on the surface, he put it into his mouth, and bit off two pieces.

The pork belly is fat but not greasy, thin but not firewood, the slightly browned oil residue on the side is crunchy and fragrant, with the taste of cumin and other spices, this roasted pork belly is simply the favorite of carnivores!

"Well, this grilled pork belly is delicious, I like to eat this kind of meat!"

Master Liao ate a bunch of pork belly in three or two bites, and then took a bunch of chicken tenders.

The chicken fillet is charred on the outside and tender on the inside, the spices and seasonings are all in, and the taste is also very good.

"It's delicious! It's just too little, it's not satisfying! Xiaoyu, bake more!"

Master Hu looked at the shrimps still marinated in the bowl while tasting them, and said, "Well, it's delicious. Don't snatch the shrimps from me later, whoever snatches them from me, I'm in a hurry with whom I'll tell you .”

Because the squid and shrimp have a strong taste, they should be grilled at the end in order not to taint the flavor. Mr. Hu and Mr. Zhao, who like seafood, are all waiting for it.

"I'm not in a hurry with you for grabbing meat from me." Master Liao laughed at him, he had already eaten his share, and then sighed: "Hey, let's have another jar of wine at this time, drink the wine and eat the barbecue , What a beautiful day! Xiao Yu, your grilling on this iron plate is too slow, we have finished eating."

Yu Qingze grilled another ten skewers of meat, put them on the plate, and five skewers were missing in one fell swoop. He smiled and said, "Several masters think this taste is okay to open a shop? Can you make money?"

"Go, go, go!"

"That must be done!"

Yu Qingze smiled and started to roast vegetables. He said, "Master Liao was right just now. This meat must be paired with wine. When we buy some wine at different prices, it will definitely sell well."

Young master Zhao said: "Should we build a few private rooms like your Jufulou?"

Yu Qingze replied: "It is also possible, but in this case, the pavement will have to be larger, and there will be two floors, otherwise one floor will not be enough."

Another person in charge said: "It's okay to have a bigger shop, and you won't be afraid if it smells like this."

While Yu Qingze was grilling, the family members were eating and talking about things.

Master Zhao ate the skewered cabbage and said, "This cabbage has a special flavor after being roasted like this. Uncle Liao Shi, try it, it's delicious."

Master Liao is a pure carnivore, he didn't touch those grilled vegetables, he waved his hand and said: "I don't like vegetables, you guys eat them."

Master Hu said faintly: "Be careful what you do."

"What?" Young Master Zhao raised his head and asked.

Master Liao blushed, glared at Master Hu, and said to Young Master Zhao, "It's nothing, nothing, don't listen to you, Uncle Hu, who is being silly." But he reached out and took a bunch of roasted cabbage and started to eat it.

Finally, it was finally time for grilled squid and shrimp. Uncle Hu Shi and Master Zhao had been waiting for a long time.

Yu Qingze cleaned the iron plate, heated it, put a little oil on it, put the marinated squid skewers in the bowl on the heated iron plate, squeezed the excess water from the squid with a small shovel while grilling Come out, turn over and continue to press until the squid turns color and roll up, then sprinkle some onion slices, sprinkle with cumin powder, pepper powder and other spices, brush with special sauce, and grill the squid on the iron plate after a while The fragrance will come out.

"Come and have a taste." Yu Qingze put the large handful of grilled squid on a large plate and handed it to Mr. Hu.

Hu Dangjia brought the plate to the small table, and immediately took a bunch and ate it.

Delicious and smooth, the meat is tender and salty, fragrant but not greasy, not fishy, ​​and the taste is very good.

"It tastes good!" Master Hu nodded.

Young Master Zhao also nodded and said, "It's delicious."

The two of them must love food. Yu Qingze paid more attention to the feelings of the other three. He asked, "How about Liao Dangjia, Lin Dangjia, and Tian Dangjia? If people who can eat or not eat normally, will they like it after eating?" ?”

The three of them represent the food that can be eaten or not.

"Not bad." Master Lin nodded, and said, "I think this seafood must have a stronger taste to be delicious."

Tian Dangjia said: "It should be that this kind of spicy food will cover up the fishy smell of the sea, and Xiao Yu handled it well, so we don't feel fishy. If it's an ordinary guy, can he handle it well?"

Yu Qingze replied: "Actually, this problem, as long as it is dealt with during marinating and a little attention is paid when roasting, it will be almost the same."

Master Liao said: "It's very good, I think it's feasible." Saying so, Master Liao ate another bunch.

Yu Qingze finished the shrimp again.

The taste of this shrimp is easier to accept than that of squid. Several masters ate very satisfied, especially Mr. Hu, who likes to eat shrimp, ate almost half of it by himself.

After tasting all the teppanyaki, several people went upstairs to the small private room to talk about things while eating.

The matter of cooperation has been finalized, but the contract documents have not yet been finalized, and this work is finally handed over to Hu Dangjia to draw up.

Mr. Hu worked very quickly, drafting the terms of the cooperation contract in two days.Several people found time to get together again, discussed and revised each item, and finally finalized the draft.

Afterwards, after transcribing six copies again, several people signed and pledged, each with one copy, and the matter was settled.

As for the investment and sharing, Lin Dangjia and Tian Dangjia each have one share, and the other four companies each have two shares.And because Yu Qingze has culinary skills, and Mr. Hu played a decisive role in shipping, the two of them paid another share based on their own skills, and they only need to contribute another share of money in terms of capital contribution.

After collecting 800 taels of silver in advance, the work began.

The shipping is handled by Mr. Hu. He buys a few boats and rents a few more. He needs to find an experienced captain and crew. Mr. Lin and Mr. Tian handle the recruitment of small shops. For the design and training of cooks and personnel, Master Liao is responsible for finding a store and following up on decoration, while Master Zhao is responsible for purchasing and customizing other things according to the list opened by Yu Qingze.

Several people got busy, and the time entered the twelfth lunar month without knowing it.

After Laba, the medicine hall of Dr. Xue’s family opened, it’s called Xing Ren Tang, it’s on East Street.Their family has also opened a medicine hall in the capital before, and they all have experience, and they are all doctors, so they don't need to hire a doctor to sit in the hall to see a doctor.

Xue Baishu's eldest brother is relatively good at medicinal materials, and he is in charge of importing medicinal materials.Doctor Ye gave them all the medicinal materials used by Le Geer according to the purchase price, which made them very grateful.

On the opening day, Yu Qingze and Le Geer specially brought gifts to the door to celebrate.

It is a great thing for the people of Tongshan that the former imperial physician who came back from the capital can open a medicine hall and see a doctor. There are also many people who go to celebrate that day.

Yu Qingze and Le Geer didn't bother much, and came back after staying for a while.

The next day, when they were eating snacks at the snack bar, they had just sat down for a while when they saw Xue Baishu come in with a servant.

Afterwards, they saw the servant go straight to pick up the meal, and Xue Baishu walked up to Brother Chang, greeted Chang and chatted with him, looking very familiar.

Brother Le bumped Yu Qingze's arm, motioning him to look over there.

"What's wrong?" Yu Qingze asked.

Brother Le glanced over there, and secretly gestured to Yu Qingze: "When did Brother Chang and Master Xue become so familiar?" "

Yu Qingze glanced at it, shook his head and said, "I don't know, you go to his house every day, maybe Brother Chang is bored waiting outside, and is he familiar with chatting with Young Master Xue?"

Brother Le shook his head, gestured and said: Every time we went, Young Master Xue had already gone out, and only once or twice happened to meet him going out, and they just said hello and didn't talk much.

Yu Qingze shrugged and said, "Then I don't know."

Seeing that Yu Qingze was not sensitive to this aspect at all, Brother Le secretly observed it by himself.

At the door, Xue Baishu asked: "Brother Chang, what kind of dim sum did you make today?"

Brother Chang glanced at him, and after taking a plate for a guest, he smiled and said, "Guess?"

Xue Baishu went to the snack area and walked around, then said: "Lotus paste buns, crystal dumplings. Right?"

Brother Chang stared at Xue Baishu with wide eyes, and asked in surprise, "How do you know?"

Xue Baishu curled his lips into a smile, and said, "Guess?"

Hearing this, Brother Chang burst out laughing and said, "Do you want to be so fussy?"

"This is my secret." Xue Baishu shook his head and smiled, then shouted to the servant: "Cuipi, bring me two lotus seed paste buns, a plate of crystal dumplings, and a bowl of red bean porridge."

"Okay, young master." The boy named Guipi replied in a loud voice.

"Master Xue, you seem to be a bit late today?" Brother Chang asked Xue Baishu again while giving directions to the guests.

"Well, yesterday my father took my homework test and it was very late. I overslept this morning and woke up a little late." Xue Baishu glanced at Brother Chang, blinked, and asked again: "Brother Chang knows that I am a child every day. When are you coming?"

Brother Chang nodded, and said: "Every day after you walk for a while after eating, Brother Le and his wife will come over. Today Brother Le and the others arrived first."

"Oh..." Xue Baishu subconsciously looked at the table of Le Geer and the others, just in time to meet Le Geer's curious gaze, he nodded with a smile, then turned his head, touched his nose, and saw the little boy knot It's a good deal, he said: "Brother Chang, then I'll go have breakfast."

"Okay, Master Xue eat well." Brother Chang said with a smile.

Xue Baishu followed the boy to a table, sat down, and began to eat.

Brother Le looked at Brother Chang, then at Xue Baishu, the corners of his lips curled up slightly.

When the two went to Xue's mansion, in the carriage, Le Geer pulled Chang Geer down, and then tentatively gestured to him: Young Master Xue is able to treat people at such a young age, he is really young and promising.

Brother Chang nodded and said: "Yeah, I heard that his father also took a test on his medical skills in the morning. You think he won't be misunderstood?"

Brother Le curled his lips into a smile, and then gestured: Are you worried?

Brother Chang nodded, and said, "One thing, if you say you misunderstood it, how pitiful the patient is."

Brother Le blinked: ...

He gestured and said, "Aren't you worried about Young Master Xue?"

Brother Chang frowned and thought about it, and said: "I'm also a little worried, what if the patient's family members beat him? He looks like he can't help beating."

Brother Le: ...It seems something is wrong.
