Chapter 96 Open a shop to sell cakes

As for what to do? Of course it is to buy milk!How to make cake without milk?
The two went out with two wooden barrels each. After finding a secret place to pour the milk in the space into the wooden barrels one by one, the brother and sister woke up suddenly!
It's no problem to carry the empty bucket, but now it's full of milk!Ye Lou was able to lift two wooden barrels at the same time with all his strength, but Ye Mingqin's small body made it difficult to lift one.

"Okay, you wait for me here, I'll send these two buckets back first!" Ye Lou looked at his sister's small body and said.

"No!"

"Huh?" Ye Lou looked at his sister's flushed little face and asked in confusion.

"This is not a long-term solution. We will fetch milk every day in the future, so let's buy a cart!" Ye Mingqin decided decisively.

Ye Lou thought so too, so the brother and sister put the packed milk into the space, and then went around to buy a cart.

The two brothers and sisters who bought a stroller shortly after walking on the street suddenly figured out why everyone wanted to go to a big city, no matter in ancient times or in modern times.

Imagine that if the siblings want a stroller in the villa, they must wait for Brother Sun to make it slowly, but now in the city, they only need to spend two taels of silver to buy it.

When buying a cart, Ye Mingqin asked the owner of the shop where there is a place that sells milk in Yunfeng City. After all, it is not a long-term solution to always go out from her space bottle by bottle.

Fortunately, because raw milk tastes bad, not many people drink it here, and most of them are used by rich people to bathe those ladies, so the price is not expensive.

By the time the two siblings returned home with four buckets of milk, Song Zixin and Lu Ci had already baked the first batch of cakes, and the second batch had already been sent to the oven.

The cakes were baked with the iron sheets that Ye Mingqin and Song Zixin had found from the warehouse before. After being beaten by Ye Lou, the iron sheets turned into a rectangular parallelepiped.

Now four cuboid cakes are cooling on the wooden table in the bakery.

Ye Mingqin doesn't plan to add cream to all the cakes, she plans to add part of the cream and not part, so that she can buy two prices at that time.

Ye Mingqin handed over the task of making the cream to his brother, while he started cutting the cake himself.

Although both of them were newbies in making cakes, Ye Mingqin had already given them a fixed amount and timing for each step, so the first batch of cakes was a success.

"Hurry up, give me a piece first!" Ye Lou, who had just entered the kitchen, ran out again.

Ye Mingqin didn't have any objections to this, and after signaling to his brother to take it himself, he also took a piece of leftovers and put it in his mouth to taste.

The taste of the cake is indeed not as good as that made of low-gluten flour before, but the advantage is that the material is better. After all, the flour is ground from the wheat grown by ourselves. No chemical fertilizers or pesticides are used, and all natural fertilizers are used.

Eggs are also laid by real hens who grew up normally, and there are no artificial eggs.

Therefore, although the taste is not as good as modern cakes, the fragrance left between the lips and teeth after eating is indeed incomparable to modern cakes.

Ye Mingqin saw that his brother was eating happily, so he called Song Zixin and Lu Ci who were in the kitchen to taste the cake. After all, if you want to sell well, you have to conquer your own stomach first, right?

The two children knew that this cake was going to be sold for money, so they refused to eat it. Ye Mingqin said: "If you don't know what this cake is, how can you sell it to customers?" After the lesson was over, I obediently picked up the cake and ate it in small bites.

"Sister, this cake smells so delicious!" Song Zixin was delighted with the deliciousness after taking the first bite.

"Then you have to taste it well, and when you sell it, you have to describe it to the customers." Ye Mingqin said.

After the episode, Ye Mingqin put the small cakes on the shelf in the front shop and put them on the shelf, then took out the gauze prepared earlier to cover it, and finally covered it with a wooden board to prevent mice from running around at night to spoil.

Yes, Ye Mingqin doesn't plan to open today, not that she thinks it depends on the day or something, but that she has to prepare the stock first.

Ye Mingqin plans to let his brother take Song Zixin to push some of them to the market to sell in a cart tomorrow, and bring along an address here, after all, this place is a bit remote, and most people won't come here.

I took Lu Ci in the shop and waited for the customers to come to buy them. As for why they should be distributed in this way, of course it is a match between men and women, and the size is matched. It is not tiring to work, one contributes to the brain, just right!
Thinking of this, Ye Mingqin suddenly remembered that his shop didn't have a plaque yet.

Thinking of this, Ye Mingqin found another wide plank that was left over from making the counter before, and then took out black paint from it to smooth the gaps between the planks, and finally wrote "Jiahua Dim Sum Shop" on it with white paint. ".

Yes, Ye Mingqin really doesn't have much talent in naming. From the name she chose for Xiao Baize, it can be seen that she just adopted the idea of ​​association and used the existing name.

Just like the name of the pastry shop now, she remembered that every year her brother would order cakes from a cake shop called "Jia Hua Bakery" for her birthday, so she directly changed the name of the family and directly used.

In the evening, Ye Mingqin asked his elder brother to push two barrels of bread in a small trolley to Qingfeng Tower with him.

Ye Mingqin and his elder brother were still some distance away from the Qingfeng Tower, but the shop waiter waiting at the door saw him. The waiter knew that although these two were dressed in ordinary clothes, they were indeed the distinguished guests of Shopkeeper Li.

Last time shopkeeper Li gave them the inappropriate cauldron. You must know that although the cauldron was the wrong size, it was worth more than ten taels of silver!
Xiaoer didn't dare to be ambiguous, turned around and went into the shop to call the shopkeeper, because every time Ye Mingqin and the others came to deliver the goods, shopkeeper Li had always been responsible for this matter.

"Hey, why is the delivery interval so short this time?" Ye Mingqin and the others walked to the door just as Shopkeeper Li came out of the restaurant.

"Isn't it just that my family came to the city to deliver things? Uncle Li, let's talk in the backyard." Ye Mingqin said.

Shopkeeper Li didn't say much after listening to Ye Mingqin's words, so he detoured to the backyard with his brother and sister.

After arriving in the backyard, Ye Mingqin first handed over the red lobster and other goods that he had prepared a long time ago to the shopkeeper Li, and after he finished counting the money, he told him that he would not provide red crayfish and snails to the restaurant for the time being.

"What? You won't be giving red crayfish in the future?" Shopkeeper Li was very surprised after hearing Ye Mingqin's words.

You must know that the business of my restaurant has improved a lot since I got the gimmick of the red crayfish, so I suddenly stopped giving away, how can I explain to those regular customers!

"Uncle Li, don't worry, listen to me, you also know that raising the shrimp to such a large size can't be done in a day or two, and just sending you a few batches of shrimp has already caught almost all the shrimps raised at home. Yes, the next fishing will have to wait a while." Ye Mingqin explained carefully.

After listening to Ye Mingqin's words, shopkeeper Li became even more anxious. He knew the truth. Could he not know that it takes time for the shrimp to grow up?
But the butler Bai of the city lord's mansion just came yesterday and ordered twenty tables of shrimps. He said he would order them in a month. At that time, he thought that Ye Yatou would be able to deliver two batches of shrimps in a month, so he would sell less orders at that time. After a month, there will be twenty tables.

But now he suddenly said no, what can he do, after all, this City Lord's Mansion is not an ordinary guest!
"Then can you get some more, at least send me another batch. Only now have someone ordered [-] tables, and there is simply not enough here!" Shopkeeper Li told Ye Mingqin the truth about the situation.

"no……"

"I'll add more money!" Shopkeeper Li saw that Ye Mingqin was about to refuse, and immediately used his trump card.

"It's not Uncle Li, it's not a matter of adding money..."

"Ye girl, Uncle also knows your difficulties, but the person who ordered this time is not an ordinary customer. Uncle usually treats you well, so you should treat Uncle as a help this time, and send another batch over!" Shopkeeper Li said. Watching a play, he immediately acted out the bitter trick.

"What are these twenty tables for?" Ye Mingqin saw that the matter had reached an impasse, so he changed the question.

The stop of deliveries was the result of a joint discussion between her and her brother. Starting tomorrow, they will be selling cakes in the city. If they run into someone from Qingfenglou by mistake, how should she explain it?

Besides, part of the reason why she did this was to make way for the sale of cakes. Yes, she wanted to sell the cakes in restaurants.

"It's for a banquet."

"Can we know that it is used for a banquet? If there is no banquet, it is difficult for someone to eat twenty tables at one time! My sister is asking you what kind of banquet it is!"

This time Ye Mingqin hadn't spoken yet, and Ye Lou spoke up first. He was a little upset to see shopkeeper Li pestering his sister there.

Also, shopkeeper Li is really talking nonsense, can he not know that it is used for a banquet?How did this person become the shopkeeper!
Shopkeeper Li was a little dumbfounded by Ye Lou's yelling. Usually, the owner of the restaurant doesn't care, so he has the highest position in a restaurant.

On weekdays, whoever these little girls are not respectful to him, even those customers who come to the restaurant with a high status will sell him a little thin noodles, but it turned out to be a good thing, and he was sold by a half-sized man who sold shrimps. Give me a yell.

"Uncle Li, don't mind, my brother is usually such a talkative guy, I will pay you for him!"

Ye Mingqin glanced at his elder brother while talking, really thought that he was still the young master of the Ye family, so he didn't know how to pay attention to what he said!
"It's okay, let's talk about the banquet first, girl Ye, uncle will tell you the truth, the red crayfish was ordered by the city lord's mansion, and the housekeeper Bai came here in person to welcome everyone from Fengtian City a month later. The nobleman who came here, so you know the difficulty of uncle, this matter, it can't be sloppy!"

Shopkeeper Li was taken aback by Ye Lou's yelling at the beginning, but when he came back to his senses, he was fine. After all, the matter of the red crayfish is the most important thing now!

"Uncle Li, in fact, we are not only here to deliver goods today, but we also have something to show you." Ye Mingqin took a step back and opened the lid of the wooden barrel on the cart.

"Dim sum?" Shopkeeper Li poked his head to look at the contents of the bucket, feeling a little strange. It looked like dim sum, but it was far less exquisite and beautiful than the dim sum in Yunxi Dim Sum Shop.

"Yes, you taste a piece first." Ye Mingqin wrapped a piece of gauze on the side and handed it to shopkeeper Li while talking.

This snack was processed by Ye Mingqin. After cutting the large cake embryo into small cubes, it was cut in the middle, and cream was squeezed into it.

Shopkeeper Li looked at the boxy cake, but he didn't expect it to be surprisingly soft in his hand!

Shopkeeper Li took a bite with the attitude of giving it a try, but suddenly found that there was something inside the dim sum, and there was actually a stuffing inside, which was softer than the dim sum outside, almost melting in the mouth.

After the snack is swallowed, only the milky fragrance is left in the mouth.

"What kind of dim sum is this?" Shopkeeper Li suddenly felt that his red crayfish incident had a turning point after tasting it.

"It's called egg yolk cake. We made it by ourselves. Other than that, no one else sells it." Ye Mingqin saw the expression on Li's shopkeeper, and he knew that the cake was probably safe.

"Egg yolk cake...good name, eggs are added to it?"

"Yes, besides eggs, there are also milk and refined sugar." Ye Mingqin told shopkeeper Li all the raw materials without hesitation. It is impossible to make an egg container.

"This egg yolk cake is good, but it's just that it doesn't look good on the stage."

Shopkeeper Li felt a little regretful, after all the dim sum in his own restaurant were all patterned, this egg yolk cake was just a square piece without any decorations, it was really not up to standard to serve it on the dining table of the City Lord's Mansion.

"No, this is just the most basic style. We also have one that can be carved with other things on it. We can carve anything you can think of."

In fact, what Ye Mingqin was talking about was the modern birthday cake. Although the statement that everything can be carved is a bit exaggerated, Ye Mingqin believes that he can make it, and there are still many finished products in the cabinet of the Space Supermarket.

"Can I see the finished product tomorrow morning? I have to see the finished product before I can make a decision." Shopkeeper Li lowered his head and pondered for a while, but still felt that he couldn't just give an affirmative answer.

"I'm afraid it won't work tomorrow. We opened a small dim sum shop in the city. I'm afraid we will be too busy to open it tomorrow." Ye Mingqin was telling the truth. After all, he couldn't leave Lu Ci, who couldn't speak, alone in the shop. Check out the store.

"That……"

"But I can send a finished product tonight." Ye Mingqin continued.

"Then are you going to sell this finished product tomorrow?" Shopkeeper Li asked the most important question. If the finished product can be bought in Ye Mingqin's store by then, then he will be completely satisfied when he takes it out. No more gimmicks.
