After Bai Ran sent Wang Shi away, he went back to the yard to pick peppers, completely ignoring the big tail behind him.

He went through all the thoughts about chili in his mind, and thought that he could try hot and sour sauce first. This thing is easy to make and easy to store, even if the restaurant doesn't allow him to eat it.

But after all, it was the first time, and he didn't dare to do too much. He only picked out half a basket of slightly smaller ones, and then found a random place in the yard to set up a cutting board and started chopping peppers.

The fool squatted down beside Bairan, looking at Bairan's side face for a while, and then at Bairan's wrist. Fall, like playing a game.

There is no blender or anything like that here, it is all chopped by hand, even if there is only a small half of the basket, it is enough tiring work, after about half an hour, Bai Ran felt a little pain in his wrist, so he put it down and rested for a while.

As soon as he put down the kitchen knife, the idiot reached for it, and then imitated his way and chopped it here and there on the cutting board.

The idiot has never cooked before, so he can't use enough force, either he misses the point or he uses too much force to shake out the peppers on the edge.

Looking at the red peppers scattered around the cutting board, the idiot felt that he seemed to have done something wrong, so he sneaked a glance at Bai Ran in fear, and then reached out to pick it up thinking he was secretly.

Bai Ran found it very funny that he was afraid of being beaten by his parents for making mistakes, and immediately lost all anger.

"Do you think our cutting board is made of iron? Why are you doing so hard?" He slapped the crushed chili from the opponent's hand, then moved the fool to sit on the small stool, and held the wrist holding the kitchen knife for a while. A little bit of effort.

It's not difficult, it only takes half a cup of tea, a fool will know it, and then smile at him while chopping.

"Be silly." Bai Ran cast a glance at him with disgust, rubbed his numb legs, stood up and walked into the kitchen, started the stove to steam the rice, and then found two earthen pots to clean , one is reserved for chutney, and the other is ready to pickle some pickles or something.

The original owner's memory does not have any memories of pickles and sauces, so this part is still blank in this world.

He used his abilities to spawn some beans, cucumbers and eggplants, piled them up to two-thirds of the jar, then sprinkled salt and water, found a thin wooden board to cover tightly and put it aside.

After the meal, the idiot chopped the peppers again until they were almost broken into froth. Then Bai Ran poured them all into the pot, put some salt, sweet and sour in it, added some water and boiled it for a while, then poured it into another pot. Then seal the mouth and pile it aside.

Although the hot and sour sauce is ready to eat, he still thinks it tastes good after two days, so he is not in a hurry to sell it in the town immediately.

In the following days, he and Wang Lan went to the town early to sell peppers. Although they sold not many in four or five days, half of them were sold. Seeing the remaining peppers start to wrinkle and wilt, Bai Ran really couldn't wait any longer. Yes, the left and right chutneys are almost ready, so let's try it out.

When Wang Lan and Uncle Wu came back in the morning, after moving the peppers, he took the two jars with him.

"What is this?" Wang Lan took two shots one by one, only feeling something inside, but couldn't feel what it was.

"One is hot and sour sauce, and the other is some pickled vegetables I pickled. I'll sell them in the town and try them later." Bai Ran opened them one by one for Wang Lan to have a look at, and then fished out a cucumber for her to taste. .

After the cucumber was pickled, the taste was crisp, fresh, and salty, which is very strong for country people. Wang Lan was addicted to it after taking a bite.

Wang Lan's family sold out their vegetables a long time ago, and now they have been selling peppers with Bai Ran, and Bai Ran immediately handed her the water, and started yelling by himself.

Today, I only brought half a basket of peppers, and they were sold out around noon. The two of them closed the stall and went to Liu Kee Restaurant.

The location of their town is a bit remote, not too big, there are only two famous restaurants, one is Zuixianlou in the south of the city, and the other is Liu Ji.

This Zuixianlou is the best restaurant in the town, and most of the people who go there to eat are wealthy, and a meal of two or eight taels is nothing more than a small fight, while Liu Ji tends to be ordinary people, Because the dishes are good and the quantity is large, the reputation has been accumulated from generation to generation.

Bai Ran chose this place for two reasons.

One reason is that there are only a small number of rich people in the town, and his products are not difficult to make and have a strong taste, which is more suitable for the public.

The second is because of the reputation. It is not easy to keep the reputation from generation to generation, so he appreciates Liu Ji more than Zuixianlou.

This is the peak time for eating, and the seats upstairs and downstairs are full, and there is not even a place to set up a table.

Bai Ran scanned around, pulled Wang Lan and walked towards the counter. The waiter just opposite came up to meet him, and said apologetically, "Guest officer, there is really no place now, if you don't rush to wait for a while ?”

There was no one at the counter, and Bai Ran was a little dizzy from the noisy surroundings, "I'm looking for your shopkeeper."

Clerk: "I don't know why the guest officer is looking for our shopkeeper?"

"Talk about business."

"Okay, then wait for a while, I'll go and ask." The man gave Bai Ran a half-suspicious look, and walked to the second floor after speaking.

Soon, another guy invited them to the second floor.

The second floor is dominated by single rooms, the environment is better than the first floor, and it is also cleaner than the first floor. The assistant led them to the door of the single room near the edge and knocked on the door, saying: "Madam Boss, someone is here."

The door opened from the inside, and the person who opened the door was a woman in a long plain dress, about 30 years old, she waved her hand and went to the waiter, and then let her body open to welcome Bai Ran and Wang Lan in, and said with a smile: "The shopkeeper Today is a day off, tell me if you have anything to do."

"Madam Boss, let's try it first." Bai Ran opened two jars, made some hot and sour sauce and put it in a teacup, and took out some pickles from the other jar.

The proprietress tasted them one by one, and she only showed a little bit of surprised and joyful expression at the beginning, and then she was as expressionless as if she was eating ordinary food. Wang Lan looked impatient, and wanted to speak several times, but was stopped by Bai Ran.

The development of new dishes is very important for every restaurant, especially for restaurants like them that cater to the common people. The food with strong taste is the most suitable. The proprietress tried her best to suppress her excitement and put forward her price seemingly calmly , "Fangzi plus all your inventory, I will sell the red one for 100 taels, and the other for 200 taels, a total of 300 taels, and you are not allowed to sell it to others, how about it?"

300 two!

Wang Lan almost couldn't sit still, so much money is just two meals, so there is nothing to consider, she whispered to Bai Ran: "Ranzi, this money is enough, let's sell it."

Bai Ran shook his head and refused, not because he didn't want to, but because there must be a limit to fooling people, 300 taels is too much, Liu Ji can stand up for a hundred years not only has a good reputation, but also has a backstage, he will definitely say no It would be strange to be thrown into prison by the other party.

It’s okay to make money, but you have to be worthy of your own conscience. If you want to cheat people so much money with a little home-cooked pickles, you can’t do it casually even in the last days.

The old lady thought that Bai Ran thought too little, thought for a while, and asked, "How much do you want?"

Bai Ran thought for a while, then stretched out a finger and shook it: "100 taels, the recipes for these two things plus the chili peppers I keep at home, I will give you a new recipe, but I can only guarantee the recipe. It will not be circulated within three months."

With Liu Ji's reputation, three months is enough to pay back the money, and 100 taels is really not much. The proprietress gave Bai Ran a slightly surprised look, and her impression of this person subconsciously raised a level, although she couldn't leave the prescription alone , but three months is better than nothing, "Okay, let's make a written statement."

The following procedures went much smoother. After taking the money, Bai Ran told the method of hot and sour sauce and pickled vegetables for the proprietress to write down, and then told her the method of shredded pork with Beijing sauce.

One dish of shredded pork with Beijing sauce is worth two dishes. After all, there are recipes for sweet noodle sauce in it. As long as it is used properly, many new dishes can be developed.

After trying the kitchen, the proprietress was genuinely happy to meet Bai Ran again, and even the polite words were sincere.

When she went back, Wang Lan felt sorry all the way. In a word, the 200 taels of silver were gone, and their rural family might not be able to earn 200 taels in their entire life.

Bai Ran was quite speechless by Wang Lan's sighing expression, and finally he was so naughty, he said: "Mother, the reason why I got rid of the 200 taels of silver is because it's really worthless, and second, after three months. We can produce and sell a large number of them ourselves, so we won’t really lose money.”

But when you do this, there will be pickled hot and sour sauce everywhere, and the price will definitely drop. Wang Lan worried: "But can Liu Ji let you do this?"

Bai Ran also thought of this point, "Liu Ji's character is not bad. I will tell the village chief the method, and the whole village will be making and selling them, so they can only do that. As for ourselves, there are many ways to pickle pickles." Now, we can make less money, so we won’t lose money.”

These words made Wang Lan's head almost robbed, so she didn't think about it anymore, and let Bai Ran make up her own mind.

When the idiot hadn't come back, Bai Ran wandered around, put the remaining peppers into baskets and prepared to send them to Liu Ji tomorrow, and then went into the kitchen to stew the remaining meat .

Recently, the idiot followed Wang Shi to the fields every day, and the farm work became more and more efficient. Not only did he take care of his own land, but even the old Wang's family also helped him a lot, and even helped him with some miscellaneous tasks when he came back.

So, heck, just treat it as a reward.

When the sun was setting, the idiot came back with a hoe on his shoulder, saw the meat and pancakes on the table, and kept smirking at Bai Ran.

That silly and naive look fell into Bai Ran's eyes, for some reason, he also wanted to laugh, it really feels good to have someone by his side...
