Hearing this, Luo Jianjia looked at Chu Weilen.
How did she know...
Isn't this kind of thing very common? She remembered it from ancient times.
Is it because this is a parallel time and space, there is no such thing
Ah, no, what Chu Wei Leng asked was how she knew, not what this thing was, that is to say, the heated kang existed, but it was very rare.
Soon, Chu Wei Leng confirmed Luo Jianjia's guess.
"This thing is something that only exists in the imperial palace of Dongjiguo. If I hadn't been to Dongjiguo before, I wouldn't know." Chu Wei said coldly, "I heard that this kind of thing is very expensive, and the required materials are extremely rare. Ordinary nobles can't afford it."
It is good to have.
Luo Jinjia used his usual excuse: "When I was a child, I liked to go to bookstores with my grandfather, and there I read a book that recorded anecdotes, which seemed to record a hermit who lived in seclusion in the mountains. A heated kang was developed to resist the cold."
After all, she did know the method of the heated kang, and where she knew it was not that important.
Chu Wei glanced coldly at Luo Jianjia, and always felt that this excuse was very familiar.
It seems that the lady's cooking skills are also used as an excuse
If someone else said this kind of words, Chu Wei Leng would definitely get to the bottom of it, ask questions clearly, and distinguish the truth from the false in the other party's words.
But for some reason, when Luo Jianjia said these words, Chu Weilen lost all these thoughts, but instead trusted her very much.
Chu Wei is so cold, not to mention the boss of Chu and Zhao.
Zhao shi grasped a key question: "Jianjia, you say that this thing can keep out the cold?"
Luo Jianjia nodded and said, "Yes. In fact, a heated kang is a bed, but this kind of bed is not made of wood, but made of adobe and bricks. There are holes in it, which are connected to the flue. When you get up, the kang will be very warm, and on the other side, you can boil water for cooking."
"There is such a magical thing?" Zhao was extremely surprised. "Will it really be warm to sleep on it in winter? It's just connected to the flue, and it's not really burning inside."
"Yes, mother. Think about it, if the stove in our kitchen is on fire, will the place on the wall connected to the chimney be hot?" Luo Jianjia said.
Zhao shi thought about it, nodded, and said, "It's really hot. It's just that it's not particularly hot, so why is the kang warm?"
Zhao Shi still finds it unbelievable and doesn't quite believe it.
"Mother, the heated kang is indeed very warm, and everyone in the imperial family of Dongji Kingdom likes it very much. In winter, their empress dowagers lie on it all day to keep warm. Moreover, if a minister makes a contribution, this is also one of the royal family's rewards. "Chu Wei said coldly.
Chu Wei Leng knew that the heated kang was very good, but what he didn't know was that the heated kang could be so simple.
If it was so simple, how could Dongjiguo's royal family not be popularized in their country? After all, Dongjiguo was colder than their side, and many people would freeze to death every winter.
But there is something strange about his wife that makes people unconsciously want to believe it.
Luo Jinjia looked at the expressions of Chu Weilen and Boss Chu, pondered for a while, and said, "Master, will you take a break in three days? Let's go to the General's Mansion to try it out. Everyone will know by then. "
Chu Wei gave Luo Jianjia a cold look and said, "Okay."
After eating, Chu Wei Leng went to the military camp, and Luo Jianjia and the others walked towards the shop.
Because the fried food shop just opened yesterday, they went a little earlier.
Before we got to the shop, I saw that the entrance of the new shop was crowded with people.
The three of them looked at each other and were a little surprised. Could it be that something happened in the shop
Several people quickly accelerated their pace.
As soon as I arrived at the door of the shop, I saw the people surrounding the shop door: "Shopkeeper, why haven't you opened the door yet? It's too late? Shop early, and it will open at the 19th hour."
"Yeah, shopkeeper, I've been waiting for two quarters of an hour, and my stomach is growling with hunger."
Zhao's dangling heart suddenly let go, and explained with a smile: "Our shop is open at the same time, everyone is early."
"It's too late, shopkeeper, you should open earlier."
Zhao Shi was a little embarrassed: "But our ingredients are not well prepared, and we can't make it if we open the door earlier."
The diners waiting outside the door were a little disappointed.
Soon, Luo Jianjia and the others opened the door. However, because the ingredients were really not ready, many diners left. However, some people stayed.
Because there were many diners waiting outside, Luo Jianjia's cooking speed was much faster today.
After a quarter of an hour, Luo Jianjia fried the balls and chicken wings ordered by the guests and brought them out.
As soon as the fragrance went out, more and more diners came to the shop.
It's been an hour since I was busy this morning.
Luo Jianjia found that now it was going to change again.
In the past in Chujia Village, they sold the meal at noon, and they sold very little. Basically, she was doing it all by herself.
Now that I came here, the spicy skewers were sold at noon and at night, and they sold more, so Mr. Zhao and Mr. Chu started to help them make them.
Now, the new shop has soup and pasta, which is very suitable for the morning meal.
If she is busy from morning to night, the shops on both sides are busy, and sooner or later she will get tired.
Besides, she will open a new shop next.
Now more and more people live in the backyard of the shop, besides the Yuan family, there are also two women.
In the morning, the Yuan family can help with stringing and making bamboo sticks, and the two women can also prepare things for the new shop.
The shop is getting bigger and bigger, and she should let others do it.
Luo Jianjia told Zhao Shi what she thought, and Zhao was a little worried.
"If this is the case, won't our formula be learned by others?"
Luo Jianjia shook his head and said, "No, mother, let's cook the recipe in advance, and then they just need to marinate it. Look, don't we let others do the spicy skewers, it's fine. Son."
Zhao Shi thought of the shop next door for spicy skewers, and then thought about the new shop now, nodded, and said, "That's good."
Later, Luo Jianjia found the four newly recruited people and talked to them.
The slightly chubby woman smiled and said, "Madam, don't worry, we will be able to do it well."
"It's just that in the morning, it may be a little harder. You have to buy food and handle the ingredients." Luo Jianjia said.
"It's not hard, it's not hard, we got up early in the morning, and we didn't have much to do when we woke up these few days, so we helped Sister Li and the others to make bamboo sticks. Fortunately, my wife arranged something for us to do, saving money. It's frustratingly busy."
"In terms of wages, it will also increase by the end of the month." Luo Jianjia promised.
The thinner woman said, "No need for Madam, it's good that you and Lord Chu can give us such a good job. My son is also well taken care of by Lord Chu in the military camp."
"One yard is one yard, everything will be discussed at the end of the month." Luo Jianjia said.
Luo Jianjia divided the new six people into good work, and after that, everyone went to work separately.
There are obviously more people coming to the new shop today than yesterday.
When I went back in the evening, I sold more than four taels of silver that day and hit a new high.
On the third day, it was still four taels, and it was even more than the second day, and it was almost five taels.
"How come there are so many?" Chu Wei asked in surprise, "Isn't it more than three or two on the first day?"
"Because we sold an extra hour in the morning these two days, many people came here for breakfast, more than the first day." Zhao said with a smile.
Chu Wei thought about it coldly and said, "Even if it's sold in the morning, it's too much."
If it was according to his taste, he felt that the spicy skewers were more delicious, numb and spicy, and the taste was good enough.
Eating too much fried food is too greasy, and he is not used to drinking those milk tea and fruit tea.
He was really surprised that this fried food could have so many customers.
Zhao said: "Who knows. I think the food made by Jianjia is delicious, but there are indeed more people here than next door. Could it be because of the high price? These days, chickens alone can sell two Thirty."
Boss Chu is not too sure, he likes both of these things, and he can't tell the difference.
Luo Jianjia said, "Dad and mother, have you noticed that there are more children coming to the new shop?"
Zhao shi thought about it and said, "Yes, this is true. There are many children here in the past two days."
"Could it be because of children?" Chu Wei asked coldly, and then denied it himself, "But children's appetite is not as big as adults, so it's impossible to sell so many."
Luo Jianjia glanced at him and said, "Children really don't have much appetite, but they spend a lot of money. Parents, or elders, always like to take care of their children's hearts. There are some things that adults may be reluctant to eat, but Will satisfy the little ones."
Having said that, Luo Jianjia looked at Zhao Shi and Boss Chu.
Zhao shi glanced at his son and said, "That's really the truth."
She often leaves all the delicious food to her son, and is more generous to her son than to herself.
Boss Chu also looked at his son and nodded silently.
"There are also more girls and women." Luo Jianjia saw that the two of them understood and said something else, "The milk tea and fruit tea in our shop are their favorite."
Chu Wei Leng has no experience with children, but he has experience with girls.
He raised his eyes and looked at Luo Jianjia, thinking that if she liked it, he would not hesitate.
Luo Jianjia noticed Chu Wei's cold gaze and glanced sideways at him.
Looking at Luo Jianjia's gaze, Chu Wei opened his eyes coldly.
Luo Jianjia didn't think much about it, and continued: "The most important thing is that the spicy skewers are numb and spicy after all, and the taste is heavier, so they can't cater to everyone's tastes. But the food in the new store is different, and all kinds of tastes are different. Yes. There are both hot and sweet sauces, which can meet the needs of all kinds of people. Besides, we have everything to eat and drink in our shop, very complete."
After her general analysis, everyone understood and understood why fried food sold better.
It was getting late, everyone talked for a while and then went to rest.
A day later, when Chu Wei was taking a cold rest, Luo Jianjia went to the General's House with him.
Mr. Zhao and Boss Chu went to the shop.
Originally, Mr. Zhao and Boss Chu had to go to the General's House to see how the heated kang was done, and the shop was closed for a day.
But yesterday the new shop actually sold more than fifty taels of silver, and the spicy skewers next door also sold more than four taels, adding up to ten taels.
The two of them were really reluctant to go out of business, so they didn't follow.
Whether it's spicy skewers or fried things, Luo Jianjia has long taught Zhao and the helpers in the shop. The sauces and those ingredients are all prepared by her in advance, so even if she is not there, she doesn't have to worry.
