Otherworldly Days

Chapter 106 Morning Tea

"master."

"come in."

Hearing the voice inside, Er Shun led the people in. When he saw the master who had just woken up after sleeping, he pursed his lips with a smile and said, "Master, you are awake. Mr. Cao is already here, why not?" I brought fresh food and said it was made for you, master, and I can use it just waiting for you to get up."

In the past, Fang Ziye would get up early to practice swords, but recently he was very tired and didn't want to move anymore. Looking at the sky outside, he didn't expect to wake up until now after sleeping.

When he woke up, he heard Cao Xiangnan coming. Fang Ziye took the cup that Ershun handed over, he rinsed his mouth, took the towel and wiped his face, then said "Oh" and asked, "What did you bring?" ah?"

"Hey, I said I'll know when you come over, master." Er Shun didn't know either, he asked, but no one knew.

Cao Xiangnan came to Yipinzhai early in the morning and specially made several snacks. When he came, he knew that the person hadn't got up yet, so he was not in a hurry.He asked some snacks to be warmed up, and he was talking with shopkeeper Liu outside. No one in the building came to eat for a while, and there was nothing to do.

He came here today prepared, since the opportunity was presented to him, he must seize the opportunity and grasp it.

Until I heard the news from the person upstairs, saying that the one woke up, Cao Xiangnan asked someone to bring the snacks up, and he also went up, "Kowkow—" "Mr. Cao, go in, the master is waiting for you inside." It is." said the little slave who came to open the door.

"Sit down." Fang Ziye saw the person coming in, looked at the vacant seat aside, and asked, "Er Shun said you brought me fresh food, but what did you bring?"

After eating two bowls of porridge yesterday, my appetite seemed to suddenly open up. When I woke up and heard that there was something delicious, I was really looking forward to what this person could cook for him.

Cao Xiangnan sat down at the side and saw that this person's complexion was better than yesterday's, and there was a smile on his face, which made people feel less nervous than yesterday.As soon as he heard his words, he kept a secret and didn't say it directly, saying, "It will be revealed in a while."

Thinking of what he heard from shopkeeper Liu, Cao Xiangnan greeted with concern, "I heard that you are not feeling well, are you feeling better now?"

"Thank you for your concern, it's much better." Fang Ziye didn't expect the other party to care about his body, so he was also taken aback before saying.

Cao Xiangnan always felt that he saw something familiar on Fang Ziye's body, but he couldn't figure out what it was for a while.Before yesterday, he should have seen this person for the first time, and it was impossible for him to know him.

Just at this moment, the snacks he sent came up, and they were put on the table one by one.

Freshly baked meaty steamed buns, rice rolls wrapped with lean meat and eggs, steamed pork ribs with pumpkin, shrimp dumplings wrapped with fresh shrimp, pork balls made from minced pork, siu mai made from pork, shrimp and eggs , deep-fried golden purple taro cake, a serving of cold cucumbers, green vegetables that are rolled in the pot and poured with sauce, a bowl of raw fish porridge, exuding a tempting aroma.

The portion of each snack is not much, but the quantity is extremely large, and the appearance looks exquisite.

"You made this?" Fang Ziye smelled the smell and felt that it was very fragrant. Seeing all the things put on the table, Er Shun asked Er Shun as if he had seen the master's mind, and came to help the master put it in a small bowl. Put the porridge in front of the master.Fang Ziye took a bite with a spoon, the sticky porridge tasted just right, he saw that there was fish in it, but he didn't think the taste was fishy, ​​he felt sick to his stomach when he smelled fishy smell recently, he hadn't eaten fish for a while .

"Well, yes, I got up this morning to prepare it for you." Cao Xiangnan didn't hide his thoughts, and said, "You eat fish porridge, boil the rice until it's rotten, and you can't see the rice grains. Put the shredded ginger down and let it cook. If you like lean meat, put lean meat in."

He stood up and signaled Fang Ziye to let the waiters go down, Fang Ziye waved his hand and asked Er Shun to wait aside, with undisguised curiosity in his eyes.

"This is rice roll, which is similar to rice noodles, but the method is a little different. This rice roll is wrapped with lean meat and eggs, and it can also be wrapped with fresh shrimp, fish fillets, beef, pork liver, etc., according to different tastes. Make different rice rolls..." Cao Xiangnan personally picked up the chopsticks to pick up vegetables for Fang Ziye, and every time he picked up something, he would tell the other party what it was and what it was made of.

With limited time, he only picked a few things to do, but this was enough for him to get up early and be busy all morning.Then he came over to Yipinzhai with the food box. Fortunately, the man hadn't gotten up yet, so he was waiting here.

"Sit down and eat too." Fang Ziye felt a little full after eating a few things. He couldn't finish all these things by himself, but these things really suited his appetite.

His appetite has been poor recently, and he hasn't eaten as much as he does now for several days.When the other party sat down, Fang Ziye looked at the other party and asked, "So you came to talk to me today about these things, right?"

"Well, yes." Cao Xiangnan didn't eat breakfast, and he was hungry for a while, so he sat down and ate politely, "That's what I want to talk to you today, I just suggest you eat in a restaurant There is a morning tea here. This morning tea is not just for drinking tea, but also with a variety of dim sum. These dim sum are only part of what I made today, not all of them. Steamed, porridge powder."

Then he explained to Fang Ziye one by one the meat and vegetables, dim sum, small steamed dumplings, big steamed dumplings, porridge noodles, among which there were dozens of varieties.

"The portion of each dim sum does not need to be too much. A small cage is only enough for one or two people. The emphasis is on variety and good taste. A few friends or a family come to the restaurant in the morning, sit down to eat porridge, drink tea and chat. "Don't underestimate such a small snack. If you sit down in one morning, if there are three or five people, you will have to eat ten or eight baskets at least, and I'm afraid there will be more.

Cao Xiangnan knew that there were many time-honored Yipinzhai in the entire Feng Dynasty, and those who would go to Yipinzhai to eat had at least some money in their pockets, so when these new things were released, there must be many people coming. If morning tea is promoted, this income will be a huge sum.

The current Yipinzhai only sells lunch, and they are free in the morning and evening. If they make good use of the time in the morning and evening, the money will definitely be multiplied several times.

The reason why he didn't tell shopkeeper Liu about this before is that he has introduced a new dish here every once in a while recently, first of all, the same, and secondly, such a big change is not a shopkeeper Liu. It can have the final say, and another point is that what shopkeeper Liu can give him is limited after all.

But if this person is replaced by Yipinzhai's boss, it will be different.

This was also a decision made after thinking about it for a long time after returning from Yipinzhai yesterday. Now that they met, Cao Xiangnan decided to negotiate a big deal with this big boss.He is not afraid that the other party will lose him. There are dozens of these snacks, unless he doesn't want the latter ones.

Fang Ziye's eyes lit up when he heard this idea, he said good things several times, and said, "Okay, okay, your idea is really great."

"At that time, I will ask someone else to make a batch of small stoves. You can cook tea while eating dim sum. How big are these small steamers." Cao Xiangnan compared the size and continued, "Let the master put the steamer in the morning. The snacks are all ready, put them in the hall, and order what you like, there are different dishes for different types of meat and vegetables, and when the time comes, you will be charged according to the different dishes.”

This is much more convenient and less likely to cause confusion.

Fang Ziye kept nodding his head, he knew it was a good idea as soon as he heard it, and the emphasis was on the freshness of the idea, which was not found in the entire Feng Dynasty.If it can be opened in his Yipinzhai, the money earned in that month will be incalculable, so his heart moved.

Facing the other party's clear and shining eyes, the other party's eyes lit up when he was talking to him, and there was a big smile on his face.Different from other people facing him, they respect him and dare not talk too much with him, but Cao Xiangnan is different here, which makes him feel like he is chatting with a friend.

For such a good idea, Fang Ziye evaluated in his heart that the amount of remuneration he gave the other party was not considered low.After listening to his words, Fang Ziye said, "You gave me these ideas, and I said yesterday that I would not treat you badly, and thank you for your willingness to believe in me. How about this, the income from Yipinzhai morning tea in the future will be counted as 500% with you, if you have any fresh snacks in the future, I won’t count the money for you, and it will be counted into this [-]%. If you want to take it all at once, I will count [-] taels at once. for you."

"Then thank you first, I will choose the first algorithm. If there are any new snacks in the future, I will give the recipes to shopkeeper Liu, and then let shopkeeper Liu send someone to send them to you." Cao Xiangnan is also a person Smart, the water flows slowly, and he always takes all the money in one go, so that he can get money from Yipinzhai whenever he launches fresh refreshments in the future.

He is now a shareholder of Yipinzhai, which is a rare opportunity.With so many branches in Yipinzhai, don't listen to the fact that 500 taels of silver is too much, so as long as Yipinzhai's store does not fail, the other party is also honest, and he is not afraid of running out of money to take it.

One morning, the two of them were talking about morning tea in the private room, and then Fang Ziye invited Shopkeeper Fang and Shopkeeper Liu to come over, and made a written receipt with him, and pressed their fingerprints, each with a copy.

Fang Ziye also explained a few words to Shopkeeper Liu and Shopkeeper Fang, all related to this.

Cao Xiangnan put such a thing into his bosom, which meant that he would gain a mountain of gold and silver in the future. Thinking about it, he became excited. It was like winning the first prize of the Mark Six Lottery and becoming a millionaire overnight.

It happened that it was almost noon at this time, and there were many people coming to eat in the building, so Cao Xiangnan made an appointment with Fang Ziye to come over in the afternoon to teach the chef in the building about the dim sum, and then write down the recipes and hand them to shopkeeper Liu later.

"Good boy." Shopkeeper Liu also knew that this kid had given their big boss such a big idea, but they will also open morning tea in the building, which means that the building will also get an extra profit.

In addition, when new snacks come out in the future, they will be launched here. Thinking about it, he feels that he is superior to Lao Fang.
