"I didn’t actually take any photos this afternoon~ Do you eat crispy pastries? Do you want to have a delivery to send you a few pieces? My mother-in-law baked a small basket, and I can’t finish them."
How many pieces?
Chen Yan replied angrily:
"Can just a few crispy pastries satisfy ? At least ten pieces!"
"Alright, Director Zeng, Sister Yuanyuan, Sister Jing, Shu Baobao, Lele, Tiantian, do you all want so? If you do, I’ll send them to you all together."
Before long, the delivery service ca to pick up the goods.
First, they went to Yingchun Street to deliver to the store, then to the Sunshine Garden community, next to a high-end apartnt, and finally to a villa area.
"Wow, these crispy pastries are just delicious!"
"Yeah, they’re fragrant and crispy, with a strong chestnut flavor."
"Thank you, boss lady, the best treat today!"
"By the way, boss lady, did you leave any for yourself after giving them all to us?"
At this mont, Shen Baobao was in the kitchen watching Chen ijuan make cold jelly.
Today’s cold jelly had two flavors, one was the normal spicy kind, which was made by cutting the jelly into strips and then adding black vinegar, light soy sauce, chili oil, roasted peanuts, and celery bits; it was refreshing and spicy, very delicious.
The other one was caral-flavored.
First, put brown sugar in a non-stick pan, lt it over high heat, then simr on low heat until thick. When there’s a caral aroma, take it out.
Cut the jelly into pieces and place it in a bowl, then drizzle so caral sauce on top, add a bit of raisins and peanut shreds, making it a cold jelly version of ice jelly.
"Thank you, Mom, it looks so delicious!"
Shen Baobao placed the two bowls together, took a photo with the phone, and posted it in the group:
"Chestnut flavored jelly, one spicy and one caral, don’t be jealous of ."
The people in the group eating crispy pastries: "..."
No wonder there was such enthusiasm in sending us crispy pastries, there are more delicious treats on the way.
But still, getting so crispy pastries is not bad.
At least it doesn’t leave people just swallowing saliva in envy.
The next morning, knowing that the store would start selling soy milk, Old Huang specially delivered so high-quality soybeans, each one plump.
"Thanks, Boss Huang, once the equipnt for making soy milk arrives, we’ll test it first. If it’s good, we’ll leave the soybean supply to you in the future."
"No problem, it’s a small matter."
Old Huang was about to go downstairs when he suddenly turned to Lin Xu and asked:
"Brother Lin, now is the crucial ti for gaining weight for the fall, and soybeans are quite nourishing. Isn’t it ti to make sothing delicious with soybeans to replenish? At least sothing to supplent collagen."
Supplent collagen with soybeans?
Che Zai curiously asked:
"There’s no collagen in soybeans, right? Only plant protein, and the absorption rate by the human body is quite low."
Old Huang laughed heartily and said:
"There’s no collagen in soybeans, but there is in pork trotters!"
Only then did Che Zai realize:
"If you want to eat soybeans cooked with trotters, just say so without going in circles. The store has braised pork trotters, just soak so soybeans and cook them together, it’s very simple."
Hearing this, Old Huang said:
"Make a portion this afternoon, I’m bringing a few relatives over for a al. It’s best to cook it in a clay pot; the price is negotiable."
With that said, Lin Xu also got a bit tempted:
"The temperature is dropping again these days, and indeed, it’s ti to eat so pork trotters to nourish. Che Zai, prepare more this afternoon. We’ll have soybeans cooked with trotters for dinner too."
Who doesn’t love a dish rich in collagen like pork trotters?
With soft soybeans braised with them, mixed with rice, it’s simply a perfect match.
"Okay, boss, we’ll prepare extra this afternoon."
As soon as it turns cold, all kinds of dishes that warm you up just pop into your mind, like braised mutton, braised pork ribs, lamb spine, hot pot with spicy beef fat, Chaoshan beef hot pot, and other steaming hot dishes.
It’s ti to try them out.
Additionally, with winter approaching, the store also needs to launch a new wave of dishes suitable for winter.
Thinking about it, ti really flies. When the store first opened, it was the peak of sumr, and now you have to wear thermal clothes, and in no ti, winter snow may arrive.
After the lunch rush, Chen ijuan, under the guidance of Han Shuzhen, went with Shen Guofang and Tian Qinglan for a SPA, while Lin Hongqi, Shen Guofu, Chen Yuejin, and others went to the villa to play billiards.
Lin Xu walked out of the store to the subway station entrance at the west end of Yingchun Street, from a distance, he saw Chen Yuanyuan in her work uniform efficiently packaging shengjian buns for custors and settling accounts.
"Yuanyuan, sis, how’s it going, still adapting?"
"Adapting? Very much. It’s so much better than being at the ticket booth at the scenic spot for half a day without seeing a single person. I just love this lively atmosphere."
The chef busy making shengjian inside laughed and said:
"Boss, your cousin is amazing. Not only did she rearrange the entire store, but she also had soone replace the signs outside. Now our Ziqiang Shengjian sign is more prominent."
Ziqiang Shengjian has been open for over two months now, and both the signs on the front and the price lists outside the counter have sowhat oxidized and faded, the writing looking a bit blurry.
For old custors, it didn’t matter much, even without signs, they could find the place and accurately call out various shengjian prices.
But new custors were a bit confused, sotis even having to ask one by one.
As soon as Chen Yuanyuan ca in, she imdiately had the company replace all these, opting for materials that wouldn’t easily fade.
After the replacent, the store had a fresh, new look.
Dou Wenjing has already had other stores also make the change, all using non-fading materials.
Lin Xu looked at Chen Yuanyuan and asked:
"Sister, do you want a bonus or do you want to cook you a nice al?"
Chen Yuanyuan thought for a mont:
"Forget the bonus, I haven’t even paid rent to Director Zeng, how can I take your bonus? Just cook us a nice al soti."
"What do you want to eat? Just say it, whatever you want, I can make it."
Chen Yuanyuan said:
"I want to eat tomato sour soup fish, with the sour and spicy taste, it must be so warm to eat that... It’s a bit chilly in this wind at the street corner..."
Tomato sour soup fish?
No problem, consider it done!
