The popularity of the food stalls made the small vendors around them very excited, especially the owners of several big noodle restaurants on the street. They have sent people to buy cold noodles and cold skins to study the practice, and they are ready to launch and sell it in their own homes.
Such a popular pasta, how can I pass up this great opportunity to make money!
In Wang Ji Noodle Restaurant, Boss Wang just made a bowl of cold noodles. This bowl of cold noodles also contains shredded cucumbers, sour beans and diced radishes. The sour beans and sour radishes were bought fresh from Yuji Yikou. In terms of appearance alone, this bowl of cold noodles is no different from Yu Ji's.
Boss Wang asked his husband, "How is it? How does it taste?"
The boss husband swallowed the noodles in his mouth, shook his head and said, "I don't have their fragrance, I think it's the chili oil. Their chili oil has a special fragrance, in addition to sesame seeds, peanuts, and other things."
Boss Wang frowned. He had gone to Yuji's stall to look at their chili oil before. Only chili powder, sesame and peanuts could be seen in it. They didn't see any other ingredients, and they couldn't taste it.
This is not easy to do.
"Have the cold skin and sour beans and sour radish been researched and how to do it?" Boss Wang asked again.
The boss husband shook his head and replied: "Liangpi should also be made of flour, the method is not clear. As for the sour bean and sour radish, it may have been soaked in vinegar. We soaked a little sour beans first, but the taste was not right, and the color was also different. wrong."
"If only I could know how they make it, or watch them make it once." Boss Wang muttered to himself.
The boss husband said, "How could it be possible for you to see the unique secret recipe."
After discussing and researching for a long time, the result is that there is no progress, but the husband and wife of Boss Wang are worried.
Similarly, this kind of thing is also staged in the kitchen of Liu Ji Noodle House, but the atmosphere here is obviously more dignified, the main reason is the bad-tempered but very strong Boss Liu.
Today's noodle shop's occupancy rate is lower than yesterday, and the business of the food stall diagonally opposite has not declined but has risen after the past few days, which makes Boss Liu, who has been doing noodle dishes for more than 20 years, very depressed.
In particular, he boasted that there was no noodle recipe he didn't know about in this grand dynasty, but now he was stumped by the bowl of Liangpi in front of him!
This cold skin looks soft and smooth, and has excellent elasticity, but it has no strength. The taste is delicate and refreshing, but it does not have the yellowish color and rich aroma of noodles!
But there is no doubt that it is indeed pasta.
So, how the hell did this shit come about!
Boss Liu almost wanted to stare out that Liangpi.
In the kitchen, Boss Liu's two apprentices, who are also his sons, did not dare to let out the air, and made noodles silently. The movements were much smaller than usual, for fear of being scolded by their father.
Boss Liu stared at the Liangpi with a dark face for a long time, then suddenly got up and went out in silence.
on the street.
Yu Qingze looked at the tall and thin middle-aged man in front of him and asked, "This guest, do you want to eat cold noodles with cold skin, or do you want to buy sour beans or sour radishes?"
This man stood by the stall and stared at it for a long time, neither eating nor buying, not knowing what to do.
Hearing this, the middle-aged man was stunned for a moment, then his face darkened, and he hurried away without saying anything.
Yu Qingze: ... weirdo.
Yu Qingze ignored it. The noodles in the pot were cooked, so he quickly took them out and drained the water. At this time, the corner of his clothes was pulled, he turned around, and Chang Le pointed to one side, motioning him to look.
Yu Qingze followed his fingers and saw that the middle-aged man had just entered the Liu Ji noodle shop opposite.
Liu Kee Noodle House
Yu Qingze raised his eyebrows, this is, have you met a colleague
Chang Le made a gesture.
Yu Qingze guessed that Chang Le was probably thinking of being a colleague. He was afraid of any trouble, so he shook his head and comforted him: "It's okay, he probably just came to see how Liangpi is made. Let's eat by craftsmanship, not afraid of him."
Chang Le heard what he said, felt a little relieved, and continued to work.
Yu Qingze frowned slightly when he thought of the expression of the middle-aged man just now.
He has also encountered a lot of peer competition before, some good and some bad. If there is healthy competition, he welcomes it and is not afraid.
Especially in this different world, he has no one to rely on, and he doesn't know that the government here is clean and uncorrupted, so he can only be more careful in his actions.
I thought so, but I didn't want to, and they ran into something when they got home in the afternoon.
The stall was closed early in the afternoon. As soon as they entered the village, they saw a lot of people standing in the courtyard of their house. They didn’t know if something happened to their grandfather at home, so they hurried back.
When they got home, they saw a young man tied up in the center of the yard, and Grandpa Chang angrily sat on a stool and stared at the young man.
"Grandpa, what happened?" Chang Hao asked.
When Grandpa Chang saw them coming back, he said, "This man, who came to steal Liangpi, was sneaking around in the kitchen. When I found it, he ran away, and was later caught by Dahe, who was passing by."
"Stealing Liangpi?" Yu Qingze was stunned for a moment. If he didn't steal money and food, he would steal Liangpi
Grandpa Chang nodded, bent over and took a bag from the ground, and said, "Look, isn't it all Liangpi?"
Yu Qingze glanced at the bag, it was really cool skin, he looked at the young man, this thief...
The people in the village didn't know much about the popularity of this Liangpi in Tongshan City. They only saw that there was a lot of sun in the yard of Changle's house, and some people asked, "What is there to steal from this Liangpi?"
Previously, Changle's family explained to the people in the village that Liangpi is the same food as noodles, and Yu Qingze brought it to sell. People in the village heard that it was similar to noodles, and some people ordered them to go back to cook, but there was no taste at all, and no one was interested until the noodles were delicious.
When some villagers heard the word Liangpi, they recalled the rumors they had heard when they went to the city to sell vegetables in the past two days, and gave a high five: "Ah, I remember, recently there is a new food in the city called 'cold noodles Liangpi', which is said to be very popular. It's delicious, isn't that what it is?"
"I also heard that it is said to be on the North Street. Brother Aze, isn't that what you did?" Another asked.
Yu Qingze nodded and said, "This is it."
"Oh, so that's what it is!"
"Why, is this delicious? I've eaten it before, but it doesn't taste as good as the noodles."
"People in the city like to eat. I wanted to go and have a look, but the weather was too hot, so I didn't go."
"This, is it very profitable?"
"So many people like to eat, it must be money."
"… "
The villagers discussed it, and their attention was shifted to the aspect of whether Liangpi is good to eat or not to make money.
"Why did you steal Liangpi? Who sent you here? How did you know we lived here? How long have you been following us?" Yu Qingze squatted in front of the man, stared into the man's eyes and asked.
The thief's eyes flickered from side to side, he didn't dare to look into Yu Qingze's eyes at all, surrounded by so many people, his body could not wait to shrink into a ball, when he heard Yu Qingze's question, he stammered: "I, no, no one sent I'm here, I just see that your business is good, and I want to get it back and sell it myself."
"Oh? Really? Why do I often see you going in and out of the noodle shop on North Street." Yu Qingze said slowly, trying to deceive him.
When the man heard 'North Street' and 'noodle shop', his eyes were obviously panicked, "What, what kind of noodle shop, I'm on North Street. Seeing that your business is good, I want to sell it myself to make some money."
Yu Qingze saw this obvious desire to hide it. He stretched out his hand and grabbed the man's neck. He squeezed the man's vital artery with his hand, and asked fiercely, "What did your boss tell you? Stealing Liangpi? Take a peek at the method of making Liangpi? Do you want to see how my chili oil is made?"
Yu Qingze's hands were relatively strong, the thief's neck was pinched, his face turned red in a short time, his breathing was not smooth, and he began to gasp for breath.
The other villagers who were discussing saw Yu Qingze's suddenly fierce expression, and they all froze for a moment, then became quiet. These days everyone saw him being very easy-going, and they all forgot that he knew kung fu.
Even Chang Le and Chang Hao were stunned for a moment.
They are used to seeing Big Brother Yu who is easy-going, kind and smiling. This is the first time they have seen such a strong and fierce Big Brother Yu. Even when they caught the cattle thief last time, Big Brother Yu laughed and stopped the cattle thief. Understand.
However, the two did not fear him because of Yu Qingze, but they became more convinced and respectful of him. This is how you should deal with evil people with bad intentions!
"Speak!" Yu Qingze said angrily, increasing the strength in his hands.
The thief is not a professional thief either. He was already in a panic, his neck was pinched and he couldn’t breathe.
Yu Qingze relaxed and said, "Say, who sent you here!"
The thief took two breaths, his eyes wandered, and he hesitantly said: "Yes, it's the owner of Liu Ji Noodle Shop."
The owner of Liu Ji Noodle House
The middle-aged man's face flashed across Yu Qingze's head, and he frowned immediately.
"Liu Ji? Did you remember correctly?" Yu Qingze patted the thief's face and asked.
The thief suddenly burst into tears and said, "Brother, how could I have misremembered my boss, I'm already like this, please let me go, I'm just following orders, and if I don't come, he will fire me. I have old people and young people, if I can't make money, I have to drink the northwest wind... "
"Okay, okay, there is a limit to nonsense." Yu Qingze interrupted the thief's professional speech impatiently and stood up.
When such a big incident happened in the village, the village chief was naturally there. Seeing the situation, he asked Yu Qingze, "What are you going to do with this thief?"
"Village chief, how do you usually deal with such thieves in the village? It's not a serious crime like stealing cattle. Should you send it to the government? How does the government deal with it?" Yu Qingze didn't know how to deal with it here. , I plan to ask the village chief first.
The village chief said, "Sending the government to the government is like playing a few dozen boards to teach you a lesson."
"Won't you close it?"
The village chief replied, "It depends on how much the Liangpi he stole is worth."
Yu Qingze looked at it and said, "It's less than 100 texts."
"That's getting slapped."
Yu Qingze glanced at the thief, and felt that the man didn't have a big reaction when he heard that he was sent to the government.
Grandpa Chang asked, "Aren't you going to send it to the government?"
Yu Qingze frowned and thought for a while, weighed the pros and cons, and shook his head, "I won't send it, it's private."
It was possible to open a shop on the most prosperous North Street for so many years. It is estimated that there is some relationship behind it. Combined with the reaction of the thief just now, it may not be able to take advantage of the government, and it will completely offend the people behind it. In the future If you want to open a store in the city, you will be in trouble. It would be better to teach the thief a lesson, and take the opportunity to remind the person behind him that he already knew it was him.
The next morning, the thief, who was beaten by a man who was staring out of sight and was bitten by mosquitoes, crawled out of Niutou Village.
