National teacher, your man ran away

Yao Yixin didn't expect that Manager Bai of their family had such a big brain and such a clear mind, and it seemed that he had completely changed from a secret guard to a money-lovers.

Silently lighting 32 sticks of wax for the Anbu of Master Guoshi, Yao Yixin looked into Bai Shisan's shining eyes, and spread his hands helplessly: "Master, I also want to open a new store, but look, our village has a Such a small amount of output is barely enough to supply the current food shop, and if we want to open a branch, at least we have to wait until next year, when the Zhuangzi on the wharf has an output, right?"

"This... can't I buy some grain and vegetables from nearby?" Bai Shisan asked persistently. He really wanted to open a restaurant selling steamed vegetables. The steamed vegetables are so delicious, and they are light and oily, so Bai Zhu would definitely like them. Eat, but he can't let his young master cook for Baizhu every day. After thinking about it, if he can open a new food shop, he can buy it for Baizhu from the store in the future.

"That way the supply of goods will be too unstable, and the cost will be a bit high. After all, they are just some common vegetables, and the price can't be too high." Yao Yixin shook her head.

Originally, he opened the food shop to digest the insatiable vegetables on his farm, but now he is doing well, the food shop is too popular by accident, and the output on his farm is almost running out, although he can temporarily sell it from the outside Buying and replenishing, but if this is the case, their current prices will be raised. He has no experience in running high-end restaurants. After all, his current experience is what he learned from watching farmhouses in the village. He opened a high-end restaurant, some of which are exquisite, I am afraid that he still needs to find professional people to manage it.

What the Yao family lacks most now is talents in this area.

Bai Shisan thought about it, and the situation is indeed the case. Qingjiang County's wharf is very prosperous, and all kinds of fresh vegetables, melons and fruits are also sold well. There are many farmers near the wharf who make a living from it. Although there are few large-scale cultivation, but Basically, every household already has a fixed source of customers, some are sent to various restaurants and restaurants, some are directly sent to the wharf for sale, and some are directly sent to familiar boat owners. If you want to buy, it is naturally best to have someone deliver it.

In this way, the only retail investors they could find were villages a little farther away. Not to mention the unstable supply of goods, the journey was too long, and the vegetables were not fresh when they arrived. Thinking of all the problems involved, Bai Shisan immediately took a break. Planning to open a branch.

but--

"Actually, you don't have to open a branch to sell these steamed vegetables. You can open a separate window in the restaurant to sell various seasonal steamed vegetables. A piece costs 2 to 8 yuan, and there are both meat and vegetables. You can sell steamed vegetables, and the dishes are also diverse, by the way, you can also add steamed vegetables to the side dishes of the casserole upstairs." Yao Yixin slowly instructed, "I will write out the recipe later, and let Uncle Muchai take time to go to the store Training, this thing is easy to make, if you want it to be delicious, the key is fresh vegetables and good sauce ingredients, there is nothing else to pay attention to."

"By the way, let Huang Yun take care of the food shop tomorrow, and accompany me to Xinzhuangzi to see how the renovation is going." Yao Yixin thought that he hadn't been there for almost half a month to buy a new one. Chuang Tzu fell, and suddenly felt a little guilty. Although there is no output this year, as the host, at least he should take care of it, right?

Bai Shisan is not too worried about this. Xinzhuangzi over there is now under the care of an elder of the Huang family. The reason why Bai Shisan promoted this person to be in charge is mainly because he learned from Huang Yun that they escaped from famine all the way, and they were alone. None of them were damaged, mainly because the elder had a flexible wrist and a wide range of people, so he grabbed a boat for them and escaped.

Such a person may not be able to go too far because of his vision, but it is more than enough for him to manage a Zhuangzi with several hundred acres. , even if there is no wages, she is willing to stay and work, not to mention that Yao Yixin also pays them monthly money, which makes it easier to manage, dare to be disobedient?Drive out with your family directly!

However, don't tell Yao Yixin about these things. As subordinates, they just need to solve the problem. If the master has to come forward for everything, what face do they have to get such a high monthly fee?

Early the next morning, Yao Yixin took Bai Shisan to the Zhuangzi on the other side of the pier. From a distance, he saw a group of people digging up the silt to build a small dam, and some old people and children were Bending over the mud and busy with work, Yao Yixin couldn't help laughing when he walked in to see: Who said he didn't produce anything in this village?Isn't this fat loach and eel the best output?

Huang Yong, the steward of the village, was helping to lift the mud. He looked up and saw Bai Shisan coming with Yao Yixin. He quickly put down his burden, washed his hands and feet in a sink, and hurriedly came over to say hello: "Young Master, Steward Bai , please come inside! It’s a mess here, and it hasn’t been tidied up yet.”

"It's okay, I'm just here to take a look." Yao Yixin waved her hand, and walked slowly over the small dam covered with withered grass. Standing there, she saw that the small dam along the river had been built for about 100 meters. Yes, with this dam, even if the river swells in the future, the fields inside the dam will not be flooded. In this way, the Yao family will have a large field producing vegetables and fruits for nothing, and they will take care of it for several years. Another large piece of fertile soil.

And Yao Yixin would not waste the tens of acres of water-prone areas outside the dam, and planted all of them with aquatic vegetables such as lotus root, wild rice stem, arrowroot, cress, water chestnut, water chestnut, gorgon fruit, calla taro, and water spinach. The crops are also very rich, and they can provide them with a variety of high-quality fresh vegetables for food shops. What they pay is only the cost of maintenance and harvesting. , it is not considered fertile land, and there is almost no taxation, so he may be taking advantage of the loopholes of the law.

Moreover, Yao Yixin's eyes lit up when he saw those people digging up the silt and pulling out the aquatic products such as loaches and eels hidden in the silt: How could he forget?In addition to growing aquatic vegetables, these flooded lands can also breed aquatic products such as loaches, eels, snails, etc. These are also ingredients that can be sold in food shops.

"Master, these are all vulgar ingredients. If you want to eat fish, I'll order someone to net some in the river, right?" Seeing Yao Yixin staring intently at the loaches bouncing in the mud, Huang Yong graciously explained These loaches and eels were discovered by accident when they were excavating the silt to build the embankment, but the fishy smell was too strong and there was not much meat. They were just chopped up and fed to ducks. People don't eat them. The young master has never seen this thing before, so he ran to see it out of curiosity.

"Feed the ducks? Are you feeding these loaches and eels to the ducks?" Yao Yixin clutched his chest and looked at Huang Yong with a sad face.

"Cough cough! Young master, um, this loach and rice field eel is generally not eaten by peasant households, it consumes too much sesame oil..." Bai Shisan explained in a low voice.

Yao Yixin suddenly realized, indeed!Although their family often eats these aquatic products, it seems that there are very few people in Yaojia Village who eat this kind of fish. If they catch them, they usually send them to their house to sell them for copper coins to buy meat. He has always been making loach and eel, isn't it? The braised sauce with thick oil and red sauce is fried and eaten. Generally, farmers don’t eat as much oil in a month as they use in a day. How can they be willing to use it for cooking?

However, aquatic products such as loach, rice field eel and snails don't necessarily have to be made with thick oil and red sauce to be delicious~ Yao Yixin touched his chin, and suddenly thought of adding a few new recipes to the food store.

"Brother Huang, how many such loaches and eels can be caught in Zhuangzi every day? By the way, are there any snails, river mussels and the like?"

"This... I haven't counted this one. It's just that when everyone was digging the mud, they found that there were many such living things underneath. It's a waste to lose it anyway. If you have nothing to do at home, you can come and pick it up, pick it up and wash it at home. , I like to eat minced ducks, and they lay more eggs after eating, and they can be exchanged for some coarse salt when they are sold.” Huang Yong explained honestly, “People come to pick them up every day, and they can probably pick up two or three barrels a day. , everyone picked it up to feed the ducks, and didn’t pick up too much, and didn’t pick up what was enough to eat every day, and the bottom was not dug out.”

"There are also snail river mussels, but they are all thrown out. Those things are mixed in the mud, and the embankment is not safe to build. They have to be picked out and thrown away."

Every time Huang Yong said something, Yao Yixin's heart ached. When Huang Yong finally finished speaking, Yao Yixin's face turned pale. He thought, he really shouldn't be so lazy. If he could work harder, he would come here earlier Take a look, maybe you can earn dozens of taels of silver in the shop!

"Well, Manager Huang, like this, you go back and tell everyone that starting today, if you catch loach, rice field eel, or snail river mussel, you can take it to Yao's village. Rice field eel is 5 cents a catty." Loach costs 3 cents a catty, and snails and mussels cost 2 cents a catty, as many as you want. Also, let me tell you that as long as you don’t delay Zhuangzi’s normal work, you can come to dig aquatic products during the break to sell."

"This, isn't it good?" Huang Yong looked at Yao Yixin stupidly, "The output of the Zhuangzi belongs to you, young master. How can it be good? How can they dig it up and sell it? Or sell it to you, young master?"

"What's wrong with that?" Yao Yixin waved his hand, indicating that he has made up his mind, "Although Zhuangzi belongs to the Yao family, the excavation of aquatic products is all hard work by everyone during the rest time, and I allowed it. In this way, If you feel sorry, I will teach you how to cook these aquatic products, and everyone will prepare them on the Zhuangzi before sending them over, so as to prevent my manpower from being too busy, and the price will be increased by 5 per catty if they are packed. Take Wenqian as hard-earned money."

"The thing that is used to feed ducks can be sold for money? And the price is not cheaper than pork?" Hearing this news, the whole Zhuangzi was boiling.

The author has something to say: When it comes to steaming eggplant, I forgot to use the home-cooked method yesterday. The steamed eggplant I made at home is very simple. The eggplant is cut into long strips that are as long as your fingers, and you don’t put anything in it. Steam it in a steamer for about 10 minutes .

The most important part of this dish is the sauce for mixing eggplant. I used a bamboo mortar for grinding garlic that I bought back last time, I don’t know whether it was in Hunan or Yunnan. I cut a green pepper and chopped it, and added a few cloves of garlic, Grind it with green peppers, not too crushed, then add salt, sugar, a little vinegar, two tablespoons of light soy sauce, a little olive oil, wait until the eggplant is steamed, and when it becomes soft with chopsticks, take it out and pour it on top The dipping sauce is delicious and healthy. I often make it at home. The same method includes steamed potato slices, steamed pumpkin slices, steamed beans, etc. The steaming time varies according to the ingredients, but the sauces are similar. You can try it if you have nothing to do.
