The Daily Life of the Daughter of a Minor Official Chapter 122

 Chapter 122 The King of Snacks (two updates in one and an additional update of 5,000 words)

Zhao Lan sat at the top of the desk, listening to Su Yanli's examination of Su Dalang and Fan Yanjia's homework, while casually picking up a book and flipping through it.

Outside the door, in the storage room next to the kitchen, Cheng Yingzhen and her daughter were preparing return gifts. They included sausages, bacon and chicken made years ago, hams bought at a specialty grocery store, hawthorn wine and wine made by Feng. Dad just brought over four big baskets of mushrooms during the first month of the year.

 “Prince Zhao Xiaojun and Mr. Fan Xiaogong each have two baskets.”

Cheng Yingzhen asked Shu Tong and Mao Ya to bring it up, and gave the gifts to the two servants, "If you are both in charge of things, if you are in charge of things, there is nothing at home. Please don't dislike it."

“Don't despise…don't despise…”

The two masters are both foodies. The purpose of Shuangrui and Qingfeng's visit is to enjoy delicious food. The happiest thing is to bring various delicacies from the Su family, especially sausages. Steam them in a pot and eat them. It is convenient and delicious, guys. They all love it very much.

Shuangrui even asked: "Mrs. Su, can you sell some of these sausages?"

 Cheng Yingzhen didn't understand this and looked at her daughter.

Su Ruojin looked at Shuangrui thoughtfully, "The little prince has a restaurant and shop?"

Shuangrui smiled and nodded.

She understood and said with a smile, "I'll give you the recipe."

 “The second lady doesn't do it herself?”

Meat grinder involves iron and craftsmanship. Shuangrui can understand that Er Niangzi gave the blueprint to the owner, but Su Erniang is best at making delicious food, why not make it herself? He was a little confused.

Of course I want to do business, but neither the Su family nor Su Ruojin herself has the ability to grab any business.

Su Ruojin shook his head: "This kind of business needs to be scaled up to make money."

 Scale?

Shuangrui seemed to understand and grinned: "Then I will thank the second lady for the little prince."

 “You're welcome, both stewards.”

After thinking about it, Su Ruojin said, "Let's do this. I'll give you the recipe for ham sausage. When you have enough, I'll go to the little county prince to get the goods."

 “Intestine made of ham?”

Su Ruojin:…

How to explain this? It was indeed related to ham in ancient times, but in fact the recipe she gave is a modern sausage and has nothing to do with ham.

Sausage refers to mincing animal meat into a puree, then pouring it into casings to make it air-dried. It can be stored for a long time and eaten after heating. It has a delicious flavor, mellow and rich flavor, a long aftertaste, and the more you chew, the more fragrant it becomes.

There are many types of sausages, which are mainly divided into Sichuan-style sausages and Cantonese-style sausages. Sichuan-style sausages are spicy, while Cantonese-style sausages are sweet. During the Chinese New Year, every household fills some sausages and dries them. The busy scene suddenly becomes... There is a taste of the New Year.

Ham sausage only refers to sausage products that are made with meat as the main ingredient, crushed into a puree, and mixed with starch. It can be eaten directly. It even later developed to have only starch and no meat and was called starch sausage. But just like that, It is still popular among people, which shows how lethal ham sausage is.

If the little prince can make them scale up, he can keep the cost down. If he usually makes it by himself, the cost is quite high, and he cannot sell it at a high price, and the business cannot be done. But if there is a quantity, the cost will be different, so whether it is sold Sausage, or grilled sausage, business is definitely booming. Who doesn't love such delicious food?

Suji Barbeque Stall has not launched anything new for a long time. If you add high-quality and low-priced grilled ham sausage, it will be the king of snacks!

Su Ruojin thought it was beautiful when she thought about it, so she would just wait for the little prince's workshop to process the sausages and hams. By then, her barbecue stall would become popular again.

On the fifth day of February, Su Yanli asked for leave and took his whole family to send Su Dalang to Dongshan Academy to study. His plan for his son was to spend three years here, and after three years, he would participate in the selection process for the Imperial College, and if selected, he would enter the Imperial College.

"If you don't get selected after three years, don't worry. You can study abroad for a year and a half and continue taking the exam after you come back. As for the results of the exam, Dad won't set limits for you. If you don't pass the exam, you have no intention of failing. If you pass the exam, follow the path you passed. Don't be in a hurry. In the words of your sister, you can do whatever you want at your age. When you get older, you won't feel any regrets or regrets when you look back on the past. "

Standing at the entrance of the academy, Su Dalang nodded to his father, "My son understands."

 “Don't be impatient, enjoy the process of studying, understand with your heart, I believe you will achieve something.”

 “Thank you dad for your teaching, my son will keep it in mind.”

Su Yanli nodded, "Your parents, brothers and sisters sent you here. Every step you take after entering the academy will be a new life for you. Work hard, Su Anzhi."

"Yes, Dad." Su Dalang saluted the family ninety degrees, "Thank you for sending me here."

Su Ruojin made a fist with her little hand and said, "Come on, brother, I will come over to see you from time to time."

Su Sanlang also stepped forward, "Brother, every Xiu Mu, I will wait for you to come back and tell me interesting things about the academy."

Although her son had not traveled thousands of miles, Cheng Yingzhen was still worried, with tears in her eyes unconsciously, "Put on more clothes when it's cold and take off your clothes when it's hot. Don't be stupid and only know how to study. If you want to eat something, just ask someone to send a message. Ah Jin and I I'll make it for you.”

"Yes, mother." Su Dalang was also moved. From now on, he would face a new life journey alone.

　　It was obviously a few dozen miles away, but it felt like parting ways between life and death.

Su Ruojin couldn't help laughing, "Mom, my eldest brother will come home every ten days."

Cheng Yingzhen could obviously hold back her tears, but when her daughter smiled, she burst into tears. She shyly avoided her husband's side, not forgetting to reach out and slap her, "You stinky girl."

Su Ruojin dodged away, laughing.

Su Yanli reached out and hugged his sad wife. As the eldest son in the family, parents, like the eldest son, have to experience the first time in their lives: the first time they are parents, the first time they try to educate their children, the first time they say goodbye to their children...

Every first time will be engraved in my heart.

Everyone watched as Su Dalang, who was carrying a schoolbag, followed the crowd into Dongshan Academy with steady steps.

Su Yanli asked his wife and children to wait for a while. He followed his son into Dongshan Academy. There was a master who met him in Dongshan Academy. He said that he wanted his son to be independent, but that was an open matter. It was hidden from his son's eyes. As long as he was able to take care of them, he still had to go in and meet with the mountain chief, the master and others. Although he had already treated him to a meal in Master Fan's name during the Chinese New Year, he had to say hello now that he was here.

Su Yanli went in to do some business.

Su Ruojin was wandering around the entrance of the academy. Although the academy must be clean, vendors will gather wherever there are crowds. The difference lies in the types of vendors.

Two miles down the hill from the entrance of Dongshan Academy, there is a street called Wenshan Street, which is about two miles long and wide. The main gathering places are shops for pens, inks, paper and inkstones, as well as bookstores, painting shops, seal engraving shops, etc. Of course, no matter where you go, you cannot do without food, clothing, housing and transportation, and Wenshan Street is no exception.

Su Ruojin paid special attention to various food-related shops and small businesses and hawkers, and found that whether it was a breakfast shop, a restaurant for lunch, or a small restaurant where you could sit down and have a drink in the evening, there was everything.

She glanced at Shanshan Academy again. She heard that there were thousands of students in Dongshan Academy. What would it be like to set up a stall here to sell grilled sausages? What's more, I'm sure to make a lot of money.

Su Ruojin thought to herself, if she was still as lonely as in her previous life, she would probably have set up a small stall by now, selling small barbecued sausages, and living alone would be quite pleasant!

 More than half an hour later, Su Yanli came down from the mountain.

 Cheng Yingzhen asked quickly, "How is An? Are you homesick?"

Su Yanli smiled helplessly, "Azhen..." Your son has only been out of your sight for an hour.

Cheng Yingzhen was embarrassed by her husband and gave a look, "I'm just not used to it."

 After eleven years of marriage and a lot of children, the couple is still as tired as a newlywed couple. Su Ruojin curled her lips and thought to herself, she doesn't know if her future husband will be half as good as her father.

well!

"Sister, why are you sighing?" Su Sanlang tilted his head and asked, "Do you also miss your elder brother?"

"I..." Realizing that he was only eight years old, he thought of a husband, and quickly shook his head, "No, I see there are no empty shops in this street, and I can't even think of setting up a breakfast shop here."

The couple who were bored all looked over and asked, "Why do you open a shop here?"

 “Do you have anyone?”

Su Ruojin replied to my mother's words first: "Wouldn't it be nice to open a shop here to take care of my elder brother and make money at the same time?"

 What my daughter said is right. Cheng Yingzhen became active even though she didn't understand business.

Su Yanli waited for her daughter's reply in confusion.

"No one can be hired!" Su Ruojin said with a smile, "Whether it's Mother Dong or Er Shi, the craftsmanship is not a problem. The rest is to find a capable helper. A breakfast shop can be run by two people, so it is controllable. It's cost-effective, there's no friction between people, it's easy to manage, it's really not that great.”

Ding held Shiro in her arms and couldn't help but interjected, "The key is to have a shop, right?"

Su Ruojin:…

　　Yes, that's right.

 Elder brother has been studying here for three years, so don't be in a hurry. He will come over to see him often in the future, and maybe he will be bumped into by her.

She turned her head and said, "Uncle Shutong, when you come to pick up my eldest brother, go to the street every time. If anyone rents or sells a shop, tell me. It's best if the place is not too big."

Shu Tong said of course: "Okay."

Su Yanli admired his daughter very much. This child was born with a business acumen. Could it be that she inherited it from the Su family of Pingjiang Prefecture?

Thinking of the Su family, Su Yanli felt irritated. The Su family was probably coming to the capital soon. He hadn't told his wife and children about this yet. He didn't know what the situation of the Su family would be like when they were about to arrive.

Su Ruojin didn't know that her father's family had come to the capital. She was playing wildly in the alley with Yang Siniang, Xue Liuniang and others at home, but was interrupted by Santai.

"The young master said that although he has the recipe, he needs to use tools to make a large amount of them, so he would like Mrs. Su to help organize them." Su Ruojin: ...It turns out that ham sausages are not so easy to handle!

“We have a meat grinder, can you just make the mini one bigger?”

“Do you have any handy tools for stuffing meat into sheep intestines?”

 Of course!

Su Ruojin pursed her lips and did not move.

Zhao Lan is okay, is he so good at exploiting people?

Su Ruojin really wanted to reply, "I can't either, no." But when she thought of her 'big business of grilling sausages', she couldn't bear it.

Santai politely asked Su Yanli and Cheng Yingzhen to borrow people, "The young master said that as long as the workshop is back on track, he will not disturb Mrs. Su again."

When Su Yanli first arrived in the capital, he thought that the powerful did not need to manage general affairs. As long as they had power, fiefdoms or court salaries, they could enjoy the prosperity and wealth without worrying about food and clothing. Later, after staying in the capital for a long time, he realized that no matter how noble the nobles were, no matter how expensive they were, Even the emperor has private affairs, otherwise he would not be able to meet his daily expenses.

He was already used to it that Zhao Lan was selling his daughter's meat grinder and now he was interested in sausages, but he was not yet complacent about being needed or even used by noble people.

He frowned slightly and said, "Ajin is only eight years old after all. She is young, so she can just make food at home. The workshop is so big, I'm afraid she won't be able to do it."

Santai said respectfully, "Reply to Dr. Su, I promise that Mrs. Su will only use her words, and she won't need to do anything else or worry about anything else."

Su Yanli still didn't want his daughter to be manipulated by students, "Ajin, write down the production process to the little prince."

 “Okay. Dad.”

 Santai: “…” He had no choice but to go home.

Zhao Lan listened and said softly, "I understand."

Santai quietly retreated.

Su Yanli himself did not like to cling to powerful people, and he would not let his daughter cling to them. Every time Prince Zhao or Young Master Fan came, he never told his daughter anything, but her daughter consciously refused to come to the study.

Su Yanli was actually very happy about this. She was indeed his daughter, she knew how to advance and retreat, and she never had to worry.

Su Ruojin asked her father, "What will you do if the little prince gets angry?"

Su Yanli thought for a moment and said, "If he is really angry, I will at best take you back to the countryside of Pingjiang Prefecture to live a pastoral life."

Su Ruojin really didn't expect her father to think of such a retreat.

He smiled and said, "Okay, we will advance and retreat together with dad."

On the afternoon of the second day, Zhao Lan, who was imagined as a villain by Su Yanli and his daughter, went to Su's house in person with the process.

Cheng Yingzhen still didn't know what the father and daughter were talking about last night, so she smiled and welcomed them into the main hall.

Zhao Lan said politely, "I don't understand something about ham sausage, so I would like to use the doctor's study."

 Cheng Yingzhen looked at her daughter.

Su Ruojin nodded: "Little Prince, please—"

Shutong quickly made tea and went to the study, then stood behind Er Niangzi, as if he was wary of being a swindler.

 Zhao Lan: ...No need to.

 Shu Tong: ...you have a criminal record.

Zhao Lan:…

 Some time ago, our second wife was raised high without her consent, and now all the little brats in the alley know about it.

Zhao Lan:…

Shuang Rui lowered his head. If you look closely, he was having a hard time holding back his laughter.

Whether it's the palace or a wealthy family, no matter where the young master goes, he is the only one who is wary of the young lady jumping on him. He has never encountered a young lady who treats him as a disciple.

Su Ruojin didn't see these lawsuits. On the one hand, she couldn't understand why a young prince at the level of a county king was so interested in general affairs. On the other hand, she really wanted to get the ham out.

So, she was very cooperative and took out the manual enema machine that she had been drawing for most of the day. "Of course, the workshop is large and makes a lot of intestines, so the manual one can be changed to a large cranking type, so that continuous filling can be done." Go down."

Zhao Lan nodded and said, "Ajin, please draw the rocking handle as well."

 “Okay, but it will take two days.”

Zhao Lan added, "The people in the workshop tried making two batches, but the effect was not very good." He motioned to Shuangrui to take out the defective products.

Su Ruojin knew what the problem was at a glance. "First, it was too full. Second, the air inside was not pricked out with toothpicks. Third, during the cooking process, high heat should not be used, and it should be cooked slowly over low heat. And you can't wait until the water boils before taking it out, otherwise it will definitely explode.”

 Write down all the Shuangrui items one by one.

“Thank you Ajin, I'll have someone try again tomorrow. If there's still something I don't understand, I…”

Su Ruojin admired his spirit and said quickly, "Little Prince, don't come here in person. You are busy with your business. I will ask Uncle Shutong to take me to your workshop. You can just find a master to connect with me. I will handle them hand by hand." church."

Three days of running on both ends attracted the gossip in the alley, Su Ruojin was nothing. She was afraid of affecting her family. She simply went to his workshop for one step in place.

“Then wait until I get the sausage stuffer and the meat grinder ready, and then I'll send someone to pick you up.”

  “Also good.”

 The meeting was over and Zhao Lan said goodbye.

Cheng Yingzhen lamented, "If a county king works so hard, what do you think ordinary people should do?"

Su Ruojin:…

I am right to lament. Could it be that this guy can't inherit the title, so he is now working hard to make money and marry a wife?

 In February, the weather gradually warms up, everything begins to sprout, and hibernating affairs begin to return to normal.

 Hua Ping and Mr. Shen sat under the lamp, watching the news coming from all directions, "I heard that Ula Cao has been active recently, and he is trying to atone for the winter war intelligence that he failed to obtain last year."

"If you are not afraid of the enemy's movement, you are afraid of the enemy's immobility."

Mr. Shen came up with a plan, "The news said that Wula Caotou is a bold and open-minded person with a broad mind and is very good at winning people's hearts. Recently, we have been focusing on this kind of people."

Hua Ping said, "In three days, I will send you a list of all such people in the capital."

Mr. Shen nodded, "Don't worry about funding. Just let your hands and feet go. If you don't have enough manpower, you can recruit anyone who is reliable."

Huaping nodded and asked, "I heard that the little prince recently started a workshop to make money?"

Mr. Shen smiled and said, "The ones that were rewarded by the Holy Spirit have all been replaced by restaurants and shops. As long as the restaurants and shops don't collapse, we won't have to worry about running out of funds."

Hua Ping sighed, "I was worried about my little master before, but I didn't expect that the young master would be better than the old master."

 Yes, I used to worry that the Detective Department would exist in name only, but I didn't expect it to grow with more vitality.

 After discussing the matter, Hua Ping returned to Su Ji's shop under the moonlight.

Just as he was about to jump down from the tree, he heard someone talking by the side door, so he sneaked down quietly.

 A man of medium height in his twenties, shy and shy, said, "Gui...Ms. Gui...thank you for helping me up. If it weren't for you, I...I would have lost my mother and become an orphan from now on."

Xianggui replied with an indifferent look, "It's a simple matter, sir. Don't worry about it, let alone knock on Su Ji's door at night."

"I...I saw that Lady Gui has been busy, so..."

"It's getting late, let's go quickly." After saying that, Xianggui closed the door, turned around and strode back to where she lived.

Outside the door, the young man looked at the door and said, "What a good man." After sighing, he reluctantly left.

Hua Ping looked inside and outside, his face was calm, and he entered his room as if the wind had passed without a trace.
