From selling box lunches to becoming a famous Chinese chef

Chapter 84 Bringing brothers and apprentices out of the stall

After entering the door, Feng Zhengming lifted the lunch box from the handlebar with a smile on his face.

"Grandpa, I made sweet-scented osmanthus meat for you today. Please try it."

Feng Zonggu reached out to take the lunch box, opened it and saw that there was still steaming osmanthus meat inside.

"Hey, you are indeed Lao Yan's disciple. You are really good at cooking sweet-scented osmanthus meat."

Feng Zhengming smiled and said, "It's not bad. I've been with Master for so long, and if I can't even make sweet-scented osmanthus meat, then I'd really be a little embarrassed to say that I'm Master's apprentice."

Feng Zonggu carefully observed the sweet-scented osmanthus meat in the lunch box, and his nose smelled the aroma of meat and sauce.

"Is this the traditional fried sauce method?"

Feng Zhengming said: "Yes, stir-fry with flying sauce."

Feng Zonggu said: "The stir-fried method with flying sauce, the flavor of this sweet noodle sauce is really good."

After going into the house to get bowls and chopsticks, Feng Zonggu sat down in the small courtyard and asked Feng Zhengming to sit down and take a drink of water to rest.

Picking up a piece of osmanthus meat with chopsticks, you can see shredded pork, daylily, magnolia slices, fungus, lettuce, and eggs. It is really rich.

A chopstick is put directly into the mouth. When chewing, the aroma of sauce is mixed with the aroma of various side dishes, and finally the aroma of shredded meat is added. It is really a great dish.

"It's delicious. I haven't eaten such good sweet-scented osmanthus meat in a long time. You added lettuce in it. The crispy and tender texture is really great."

Seeing that his grandfather was satisfied with his meal, Feng Zhengming drank tea with some pride.

After taking a few bites, Feng Zonggu asked: "How do you sell the meat?"

Feng Zhengming said: "Business is very good. Everyone says that the meat made from my grandfather's recipe is very authentic. They say that they haven't eaten such delicious meat in many years."

Feng Zong smiled and said: "It's not that the recipe is good, it's that your craftsmanship is good."

Before Feng Zhengming could speak, the old man continued: "Just like this osmanthus meat, it's the same dish. Even with the same cooking process, others may not be able to make it taste like you."

Feng Zhengming said: "You are praising me too much. How can I deserve it?"

The old man smiled and said, "You deserve it. Do you know why you do better than others?"

Feng Zhengming said nothing and stared at the old man waiting for the answer.

Feng Zonggu said: "Because you are more serious and pure than others. You are thinking about how to make delicious food, not how to make money."

Feng Zhengming was stunned for a moment, then said with a smile: "I also want to make money."

When Feng Zonggu heard this, he immediately pretended to be annoyed and said: "Okay, then go make money quickly. You have delivered the meal and drank the tea. Go back quickly and don't delay business."

Being driven away directly by the old man made Feng Zhengming feel dumbfounded.

Then Feng Zhengming said with a playful smile: "I came all the way here on a bicycle, and you didn't ask me to stay for a while. Are you my grandpa?"

Feng Zonggu said: "Didn't I drink a pot of good tea for you? Since you know it's far away by bicycle, why don't you go back quickly? It's too late to go back, and you will be late to go to the train station to set up a stall, and the place will be occupied by others. Lose."

At the old man's urging, Feng Zhengming had no choice but to go out and push his bicycle away.

Watching Feng Zhengming push the cart away, the old man did not forget to shout: "Be careful on the road."

Feng Zhengming stood at the entrance of the alley and waved to the old man and shouted: "I know, grandpa, you go back to eat, I'm leaving."

After coming out of Grandpa Feng's house, Feng Zhengming pedaled his bicycle very hard back to the canteen.

Dinner is already served in the cafeteria.

Seeing Feng Zhengming's return, Li Huidong said to his two apprentices: "Go ahead and set up a stall with your junior uncle today. Remember to look more and talk less, and remember the place where the stall is set up. If you go over and help set up the stall tomorrow at noon, you can't do anything." wrong."

Zhang Lei and Yang Peng naturally agreed and quickly helped Feng Zhengming carry the vegetables and rice onto the tricycle.

Feng Zhengming also took out two pots of meat from the small kitchen and put them on the car.

In this way, the three of them left the canteen and rushed to the train station.

On the way, Zhang Lei and Yang Peng didn't forget to ask Feng Zhengming how things are usually sold.
  Feng Zhengming said: "A piece of meat is 5 cents, eggs are 2 cents, and the rest are 1 cents each. And if someone buys a lunch box, a box of vegetables is 1 yuan, and rice is 5 cents."

After hearing the price, Zhang Lei and Yang Peng felt that it was similar to that of a canteen.

Zhang Lei asked: "Uncle, are there a lot of people buying it at the train station?" Before Feng Zhengming could answer, Yang Peng said, "Uncle makes the pork so well, there will definitely be many repeat customers."

Feng Zhengming said with a smile: "How many repeat customers are there at the train station? No one can take the train every day. If we really want to talk about repeat customers, maybe the staff at the train station can be considered repeat customers, but they don't buy every day."

While chatting, the three of them came to the train station together.

What Feng Zhengming didn't expect today was that there were stalls next to each other in front of the train station, which had already been set up like a small market.

It seems that everyone has become accustomed to this way of setting up stalls in the past two days.

What surprised Feng Zhengming even more was that he came a little late today, as other vendors' stalls had already been set up.

But the place where he sets up his stall every day is actually specially reserved.

Zhang Lei and Yang Peng were both a little surprised when they saw the vendors setting up their stalls one after another in front of the train station.

Zhang Lei said: "Are there so many people setting up stalls here now?"

Yang Peng asked: "There are so many people, and the good seats seem to have been taken by others. Are you late today? Where should we set up a stall?"

Zhang Lei glanced around and said: "Over there, there is an opening over there, little uncle, let's go set up a stall there."

Yang Peng heard Zhang Lei's words and looked where he pointed.

Seeing the vacant position, Yang Peng was a little surprised: "Why do you want to leave that space vacant when you have it next to it? That neutral position seems to be quite good."

Zhang Lei also felt a little strange when Yang Peng said this?
  Feng Zhengming had already walked over pushing a tricycle.

When Feng Zhengming pushed the cart towards the empty space, almost all the vendors passing by took the initiative to say hello to him.

"Master Xiao Feng is here."

"Master Feng is late today."

"Chef Feng is late. There were tourists looking for your stall just now."

Feng Zhengming also responded to the vendors with a smile.

"Hello everyone, how is business today?"

Everyone also had smiles on their faces and expressed that business was going well.

Zhang Lei and Yang Peng watched as the vendors neatly setting up their stalls in front of the train station greeted Feng Zhengming politely as if they were welcoming a leader, and watched him go to the vacant seat.

As soon as Feng Zhengming parked his tricycle, the vendor next to him even offered to help him out of the stall.

However, he was stopped by Feng Zhengming with a smile, and then he shouted to Zhang Lei and Yang Peng who were stunned in the distance: "Come here and help me set up the stalls."

Only then did Zhang Lei and Yang Peng come to their senses and quickly ran towards Feng Zhengming.

Feng Zhengming said to Zhang Lei and Yang Peng: "You two will come tomorrow and put it on here."

After that, he introduced the soda lady selling next to them to the two of them.

"If you don't understand anything, you can ask eldest sister. In the past two days, eldest sister has been selling soda next to me and occasionally helps me. She probably knows how to sell soda."

The soda seller smiled at Zhang Lei and Yang Peng, and then asked Feng Zhengming: "Master Xiao Feng, is this a relative of yours?"

Feng Zhengming said: "Oh, they are my nephew and my brother's two apprentices. Bring them here to familiarize themselves with the place. I will stay in the canteen to help at noon tomorrow. I may ask them to come over and help me sell the stall first."

The soda seller said, "That's no problem. I will definitely help them open the stall."

Feng Zhengming smiled and said, "Thank you, eldest sister, for your help."

Zhang Lei and Yang Peng also said "Thank you, sister" to the soda seller.

Feng Zhengming had just set up his stall, and the first people who came to him to buy meat were some vendors who had set up a stall in front of the train station.

Not long after, Zhang Lei and Yang Peng saw Feng Zhengming's booming business.

People keep coming to buy meat and lunch boxes.
