Chapter 42 Business is booming
Early the next morning, Qin Ya told Li Chenggu about her recent business. Although Li Chenggu frowned and wasn't very happy, he didn't stop her.

Qin Ya met Tan Lanfang and Li San at the ferry as agreed.

Li San greeted Qin Ya overjoyed, "Sister Qin, come and see, I caught these yesterday."

Qin Ya took a closer look and was very surprised.

Good guy, maybe Li San didn't sleep all night?
The cabin was full of snails, at least not weighing a hundred catties, and they were all soaked in clean water according to her previous request.

"There are fifty or sixty catties of crucian carp, but Sister Qin, you said that you won't need it for the time being, so I kept it in the pond at my house and didn't bring it out."

"Okay, Li San, you must have been busy for most of the night?"

Tan Lanfang also made fun of him.

Li San touched his head, smiled and said nothing.

Qin Ya assigned tasks to them, gave each of them a pair of scissors, and taught them how to cut the tail of the snail according to the method.

"Do you want to boil water to pick out the snail meat today?"

Tan Lanfang asked.

"I don't need it today. There are too many snails, and it's too late to boil water. Let's just make some and sell some. It's more convenient."

The three of them stopped talking nonsense immediately. Knowing that today's task was heavy, they started cutting snails.

It was only when the sun was three poles high that the whole boatload of snails was packed, and the water was changed several times to spit out sand.

Li San was driving the boat, and Qin Ya and Tan Lanfang were sitting on the boat, arranging the wild fruits they picked and the peppers they brought out.

When they reached the town, the three went straight to the old place they went to yesterday.

Those who had tasted the taste of snail meat yesterday rushed to buy it today, and those who hadn’t tasted it yesterday, after hearing the evaluations from the neighbors, wanted to buy some to try something new.

"Sister, you were still a snail meat yesterday, why are you an empty shell today?"

"Yes, yes, can this still be eaten?"

"..."

Those who wanted to buy snail meat couldn't help but question it when they saw that she brought it directly with the shell today.

That's right, people in this era don't know how to eat snails. This is called a delicacy on barbecue stalls in later generations. At this time, everything is just an empty shell.

"Don't worry, the snail meat is all inside the shell. Eating the meat alone won't taste good. You have to hold the shell and eat it together to absorb the juice inside. It will be delicious."

Qin Ya comforted everyone.

Today she changed the way of making snails. After all, many people eat snails because they are full of juice. She first stir-fried the snails with oil and chili, then added water, simmered for a few minutes, opened The lid and the juice are all collected into the snails.

Take it out of the pot, the aroma is so tangy that you can smell it ten miles away.

Today, more people came here after hearing the news, and many people followed the scent to find it.

Qin Ya demonstrated to these people how to pick out the snail meat from the shell, and then suck the soup to eat. These people were all amazed.

In the last one, the ten, ten, and one hundred, all come to see this woman's housekeeping skill-secret snail making.

There were more and more people watching, and Qin Ya's business was getting better and better. At the same time, a sneaky figure appeared in the crowd.

Taking a closer look, it was Zhang Yuanwai who bought Li Xin'er from the original owner that day and was taught a lesson by Qin Ya.

Zhang Yuanwai heard about it yesterday. There is a woman selling some snail meat here, which is very rare.

He specially got up early this morning, came over to lie in ambush at the tea stand next to her, to see what she was going to do, and then he went back to follow the gourd and draw some ladles, and made some in the same way.

In the end, she never expected that the woman selling snail meat was actually Qin Sufen!
What a Qin Sufen, this woman said she sold her son to herself, but turned around and refused to admit it. She used her man to suppress her and beat herself up.

Whoops, remembering the feeling of the thorns being pulled on his body, Zhang Yuanwai felt that his whole body was still in pain.

Thinking of this, he wanted to spy on Qin Sufen's method even more. As long as he learned it, Qin Sufen would have no place in this town.

He had a good abacus and read carefully. Qin Sufen first put the snails in the oil pan and fried them with dried chilies, then added water and wild fruits and simmered them in. After about a stick of incense, they were ready to be cooked. .

There is no other seasoning added in the middle, and there is no special secret recipe.

very good!

Zhang Yuanwai felt that he had learned it.

When he got home, he ordered his servants to prepare snails, wild fruits and dried chilies for themselves.

After burning the oil, follow Qin Sufen's steps step by step, and finally get out of the pan.

"puff……"

Zhang Yuanwai eagerly tasted the snail meat he made himself, and almost spat it out. The spicy and sour meat was also bitter, not as evil as others made it out to be.

As if thinking of something, he called his servant over, whispered something in his ear, and sent the servant away.

After waiting for the boss to work, he saw the servant coming in from outside.

"You are so moaning, have you not eaten?"

Zhang Yuanwai scolded.

"Master, there are too many people there. I bought it after waiting for a long time. You can try it."

The servant graciously packed it on his own plate and handed it to Yuanwai Zhang.

Asking his servants to buy two taels of snail meat from Qin Sufen, Zhang Yuanwai planned to compare it to see if it tasted the same as the one he made.

I tasted it, and it really tasted very different from the one I made myself.

Zhang Yuanwai's eyes were calm, thinking that Qin Sufen should have her own exclusive secret recipe in it.

This recipe...

Zhang Yuanwai's eyeballs rolled, and he decided in his heart that it was too dark, so let's make it clear.

Reaching out without hitting the smiling face, thinking that he "buy" prescriptions in the past in an open and honest way, Qin Sufen, a wicked woman, shouldn't refuse herself thousands of miles away.

To deal with people who are greedy for money, you should use money to solve it, Zhang Yuanwai thought silently in his heart.

Let's talk back to Qin Ya.

Qin Ya was in charge of the production, and Li San was there to take care of it. Tan Lanfang collected the money. The three of them worked together well, and people came to buy snails one after another.

Seeing that the business is booming, it looks like it will compare with the rest of the market.

Although the three of them are very busy, they are full of energy in their hearts. This is the second day that the three of them actually started selling snails, which can be said to be a good start.

"How much is a catty?"

There are endless streams of customers.

"Twenty Wen a catty, how much do you want?"

"Give me [-] Wen..."

"I want eighty Wen..."

"One hundred words..."

More and more snails are being sold, and those who want snails have gradually increased their weight. From the beginning, they sold a few taels, and now they can sell several catties at a time.

"Sister Qin, you are really powerful, stronger than all the women I have ever seen."

While taking care of these people, Wang San laughed and praised Qin Ya.
