There are a lot of delicious food in the night market, and most of them come out in groups to play. These days, both men and women have not yet formed the concept of skipping dinner to lose weight, and the business of food stalls in night markets is particularly good.
After Lin Mo's sales situation opened up, he was overwhelmed in a short while.
Many diners originally wanted to taste the taste of other flavors of spiked potatoes with the idea of trying something new, but they couldn't stop their mouths once they tasted it.
The hot and sour taste is mixed with finely chopped wild sansan pepper, which is different from the sourness of vinegar. The sourness of wild sansan pepper has a strong spicy taste, and wild sansan pepper itself is much hotter than ordinary chili noodles. It can be hot and sweaty. The strong hot and sour taste makes the spiciness-loving people of Jincheng very addictive, and some extremely spicy-loving delicious eat all the wild salamanders in the bag raw.
The sweet and spicy taste is more popular among children. Sweetness itself is a taste that will make you get tired if you eat too much, but at the same time, an appropriate amount of sweetness can also have a good refreshing effect. When sugar and chili are combined, the greasy sugar is easily covered by the spicy, and then becomes a kind of umami, mixed with chopped green onion and parsley, and Lin Mo's special sauce, the fragrant taste can be conquered even by picky children. Even adults can't help applauding after eating it.
The method of cumin is very simple. In fact, it is just adding more cumin powder on the basis of ordinary spicy taste, or you can add cumin powder directly without adding spicy pepper. An ordinary spiked potato, after adding cumin powder, immediately has a unique aroma of barbecue, and it tastes no worse than the baked potatoes on the barbecue stand.
The spicy flavor is the most common, and the most people buy it. After all, not everyone is willing to try new flavors. However, after you taste it, you will immediately find the difference - it is also spicy, but the taste here in Lin Mo is obviously stronger. . Jincheng people who eat spicy food all the year round can easily taste the difference between chili and chili.
Lin Mo was used to high-end food in his previous life, and he was unwilling to skimp on the ingredients for customers. All he used was high-quality clear oil and the best seasoning. The potatoes were also the best large potatoes in the selected vegetable market, and the cost was much lower than other small potatoes. Expensive. The price of Spike potatoes in the night market is basically stable at one yuan or five taels or one yuan a bag. Lin Mo’s new stall can’t be opened for a few days, so it’s not easy to raise the price rashly. In order to ensure the profit, he had to reduce the portion. Each serving of potato sticks is only 2/3 as much as other stalls, and a serving of potatoes can earn about 50 cents, which is not much more than other vendors.
At first, there were many customers who thought the portion was too small and clamored not to buy Lin Mo's products next time, but after they tasted it, they turned around and came back to line up again.
On the first day of trial operation, time was tight, and Lin Mo did not prepare many potatoes. Not long after the night market entered its peak period, the three barrels of potatoes that Lin Mo brought with him by car were robbed. Many customers seriously expressed that they haven't eaten enough yet, and asked Lin Mo to prepare more goods tomorrow.
Lin Mo agreed, and happily rode his tricycle home.
He poured the waste oil left in the pot to the doorman, gave him a potato stick he left in advance, and paid his rent for the day. Mo packed up the things in the car.
Lin Mo took the bucket and seasonings home, and left all the rest with the guard. When he got home, he cleared the money in his pocket and sold it for a total of 160 yuan. After excluding today's expenses, he made a net profit of more than 70 yuan.
From the perspective of later generations, 70 yuan is not enough to eat a decent foreign fast food, but now, the hardest hard work on the construction site is only 20 to 30 yuan a day, and the average daily salary of my father is only 15 or 6 yuan. It's just money, 70 yuan is already a lot.
Anyway, there is progress.
Lin Mo put away the neatly stacked 50 cents on the table in satisfaction, and saw that it was only past ten o'clock. He simply took a shower to wash off the smell of oily smoke on his body. The clothes he washed yesterday were not dry yet, so he had to make do with it. Putting on the outfit just now, quickly dried my hair with a hair dryer, and rushed to the hospital.
"Youngest, you said that Momo will not have any problems selling things by himself?" The old lady walked around the ward several times, fidgeting.
Lin Jian was not worried, but he had confidence in his son and comforted him: "Mom, don't worry about it. Didn't you say that the potato chips made by Momo are still edible, and they won't fail to sell."
"Who's worried about this?" The old lady said worriedly: "I'm worried about the bad security in Jincheng, what if something happens... bah bah bah, our family, Mo Mofu, has a big life, so there must be nothing wrong. "
"Mom, Jincheng is the provincial capital, and the law and order are much better than our county L. Momo is a boy anyway, so it won't hurt to exercise more."
"That's what I said," the old lady suddenly exclaimed, "No, I can't, I still have to go and see my grandson, otherwise I don't feel relieved."
Lin Mo pushed the door open with a smile and came in: "Grandma, Dad."
"Hey, my dear grandson, I can see you." The old lady held Lin Mo's hand tightly, as if she hadn't seen her precious grandson in decades, and asked earnestly: "Will you be here today?" Is it going well? Is the food sold out? It doesn’t matter if it’s not sold out, we can eat it ourselves if we can’t.”
Lin Mo helped the old lady to sit beside her and said, "Grandma, the potatoes are all sold out."
"What, it's all sold out?" The old lady's eyes widened. The potatoes she helped to prepare herself weighed tens of catties.
"Business is better than I expected. There are not enough sales today, so prepare more tomorrow."
The old lady immediately smiled: "My good grandson is capable. No one is embarrassing you today, right?"
"No, everyone takes good care of me when I'm young."
"That's good, that's good." The big stone hanging in the old lady's heart finally fell, "How much money did you make today? Don't let grandma guess, at least 15 yuan, right?"
Lin Mo smiled and said, "No, grandma will give you another chance."
Seeing that he looked confident, the old lady immediately doubled the number: "Could it be 30 yuan?"
Lin Mo still shook his head with a smile, and circled his fingers to make a seven. Even Lin Jian, who was not optimistic about his son going to set up a stall, widened his eyes.
"70 yuan? Oh, you didn't make grandma happy. You earned 70 yuan for those barrels of yams?" The old lady's eyes widened. She usually grows vegetables and sells them in the town, and the price of more than ten yuan is considered the most. She never imagined that a few buckets of humble potatoes could make so much money.
Lin Mo smiled and said, "And it's a net profit. We will prepare more potatoes tomorrow, and at least we can earn more than 100 yuan."
The economy of the provincial capital is much more developed than that of the county town, and people are gradually getting richer. Things that look expensive in the county town are commonplace here. In this era of rapid economic development, capital is rapidly accumulating in the hands of a small number of people, and countless wealth myths are sprouting frequently in this era.
Both Lin Jian and the old lady showed unbelievable expressions at the same time, which obviously exceeded their cognition. Although Lin Jian is a teacher, he is honest and honest, and he teaches in a rural middle school. He doesn't have any wealthy relatives and friends, so his knowledge is limited.
The old lady finally recovered from the shock, and immediately made a decision: "I will go with you tomorrow, so that you won't be too busy alone." The old lady's mind is very simple. It would be strange if no one was jealous. Momo is so young, what if he is going to be bullied
"Then what about Dad?" The stall's business was better than expected. Lin Mo was really too busy alone, and he almost took away the money several times today.
Lin Jian said: "What can I do here, with your grandma watching, I can rest assured."
The old lady took over the conversation: "Tomorrow afternoon, you go to the night market first. I'll deliver your father's meal. I'll go find you after the doctor's examination."
Lin Mo looked at the earnest eyes of the two, and could only nod: "Okay."
He stayed in the hospital for a short while, then was 'thrown' home by the old lady.
At the same time, it was morning on the other side of the ocean, and the winter sun had just risen. Unlike the warm sunshine outside, the Han family's living room was extremely tense.
"A Xun, you are an adult, and I respect your decision. However, as a father, I hope you can complete your studies in country M and then go to country Z." Father Han said in a deep voice, the faintly lovely The handsome face of youth is both majestic and kind.
Han Xun has made up his mind to travel across the ocean: "Dad, I can also complete my studies in country Z."
Seeing his obsession, Brother Han couldn't help but get angry. He pointed at him and said, "You majored in computer science. Can the computer level of country Z be comparable to that of country M? For an illusory dream, you are willing to abandon your family and go far away." Du Chongyang, I think your brain is broken."
The second brother of the Han family snuffed out the cigarette butt in his hand, and said earnestly, "Ah Xun, I suggest you accept Dr. Winchester's advice and accept hypnotherapy."
Han Xun suddenly clenched his hands nervously, pursed his lips, and shook his head lightly after a while: "Impossible."
The eyes of Mother Han and the third sister of the Han family couldn't help but flush red.
Mother Han said sadly, "It's all my fault. I shouldn't have given you that pair of rings." She originally wanted to give her youngest son a pair of family heirlooms, but unexpectedly, she made her son suffer from a strange disease.
Han Xun shook his head: "Mom, it's not about the ring. Didn't Master Hongyuan say that it's fate, destiny, no one else. I believe I can find him."
All the Han family sighed silently. After all kinds of persuasion failed, they had to send Han Xun on the plane to country Z.
The moment the plane took off, all the uneasiness and restlessness in Han Xun's heart subsided miraculously.
