Chapter 130 The Whereabouts of Yuba

Let's talk about Wu's shopkeeper and Wang's shopkeeper.

They each brought fifty catties of tofu back home, and when they arrived at their own shop, they called the cook over before getting off the carriage, and asked them to try making tofu according to the few methods Gu Miao had just mentioned.

Shopkeeper Wu had an extra eight catties of bean curd sticks, so he took out one catty and soaked it in water, deciding to satisfy his appetite first.

However, when he thought of the bean curd stick, which was one tael of silver per catty, he couldn't help but feel pain again. It was worth a thousand copper coins, and every bite was like eating copper coins!

Although his family was not bad, shopkeeper Wu didn't want to be so extravagant. After thinking about it, he called a waiter in the store and asked him to go to the academy to find Zhu Huan.

Zhu Huan likes to eat, and is willing to eat it. Considering the consumption level of Yong'an Town, this bean curd stick is best sold to Zhu Huan.

Zhu Huan was in class, so Xiaoer could only tell him about it to Shutong. After he finished school, Shutong heard that shopkeeper Wu had a new meal and invited him to drink, so he hurried to Wenxianglou.

Waiting for him is a table of tofu feast.

Although the cooking skills of Wenxianglou are not as good as those of Piaoxiangju, they are still professional. According to the method that Gu Miao said, it is like drawing a ladle from a gourd, and a table of tofu feast is quickly prepared.

Tofu mixed with shallots, pan-fried tofu, minced meat tofu, hot and sour tofu soup, crucian carp tofu soup, and a plate of braised pork with yuba.

Of course, good wine is indispensable. Zhu Huan is a scholar, and shopkeeper Wu prepares mild rice wine, which is not high in strength. Today's protagonists are tofu and yuba.

"Hey, what's new about this?" Zhu Huan had a look of surprise on his face, looking very appetizing!
"Master Zhu, sit down and have a taste." Shopkeeper Wu said with a smile.

Zhu Huan was also polite, sat down and picked up the chopsticks to taste one by one, the smile on his face never broke, "These are good."

He ordered with his chopsticks pan-fried tofu, hot and sour tofu soup, crucian carp tofu soup, and braised pork with yuba. "Especially this soup and this meat, one is light and the other is fragrant. What is it?"

He picked up a piece of yuba and asked.

This bean curd stick has absorbed the aroma of the meat, it is soft and has a little chewiness, which suits his appetite.

"This is called yuba. It's expensive. I bought it from other places. It costs one tael per catty." Shopkeeper Wu raised a finger and shook it. "I'm too embarrassed to ask you to come here for ordinary things."

Zhu Huan laughed when he heard the words, then raised his eyebrows, carefully looked at the yuba on the chopsticks, and asked for details.

The situation is very simple, and he explained it clearly in a few words. Shopkeeper Wu touched his chin and said, "I haven't figured out how to deal with it yet, but I just invite you to come over and try something new."

He has also thought of many ways in the past few days, how to use yuba to attract more customers, but after much deliberation, he can't find a safe way. If it really doesn't work, then buy wine and give yuba as a gift. Just give a plate of yuba.

After Zhu Huan heard the reason, he clicked his tongue, "That little lady is quite powerful."

"That's right, with the business of tofu in hand, the money is like running water." Shopkeeper Wu said with emotion, much better than his Wenxianglou.

"Let's not talk about Mrs. Gu. I want the leftover bean curd sticks. My grandfather is about to celebrate his 68th birthday. I haven't decided what to give him yet. This bean curd sticks are good and suitable for his teeth." Zhu Huan said, " I'll give you 50 taels of silver, and I'll take the rest."

He originally wanted to send bean curds, but bean curds were obviously not suitable for long-distance transportation, so he wrote a copybook, intending to use his calligraphy progress as a congratulatory gift, who knows that he got this yuba today, let's use yuba.

His grandpa likes food more than him, and he will definitely like this gift.
