Chapter 94 Tofu
Qin Huaidong's eyes lit up and replied, "Don't worry, I remember it."
Qin Zijin said, "Then can you tell these two kinds of stones in the future?"
Qin Huaidong nodded, "No problem."
Qin Zijin responded, "That's fine. These stones are the key. Without this thing, this tofu will never be done. So if we want to temporarily monopolize this business, these stones are the key and must not be leaked."
Qin Dahai glanced at everyone in the room, "Do you all remember?"
The Qin family responded loudly, "Remember."
Qin Zijin was not very worried that the Qin family would reveal this secret. After all, no matter what the consideration was, the Qin family would not foolishly send the secret recipe for making money outside.
After a day of hard work, Qin Zijin personally cooked tofu in the evening and made fried tofu, Mapo tofu, tofu meatballs, and vegetable tofu soup. This is the simplest dish that Qin Zijin can make conveniently.
Unfortunately, there is no starch, and the smooth tofu with starch will make it more delicious.
Anyway, all sweet potatoes are produced in this place, so it is easier to make starch.
However, starch does not seem to be used as a seasoning here. However, every time a farmer cooks shredded potatoes, he is reluctant to pour out the starch he has grown, so he will pour it into the shredded potatoes and stir-fry it. The shredded potatoes are stuck in a ball, which has a unique flavor.
But no one seems to have thought that he could use this starch to make more dishes or eat.
Qin Huaidong heard that Qin Zijin wanted this starch, so he didn't have to teach him how to do it. The next day, he made a bowl of potatoes and learned from others.
There was also tofu the day before, so Qin Zijin made another tofu banquet with the newly made starch. It was another flavor, and everyone praised it.
This time, Qin Huaidong didn't have to speak, and his eyes lit up and said, "Why should we collect more potatoes and make the starch you mentioned? You will definitely use it when opening a restaurant in the future."
Qin Baozhen said with some concern, "But after being stored for a long time, potatoes will either grow teeth or turn green, which is not as easy as soybeans."
Qin Zijin responded, "It is not a problem to make starch directly, dry it and store it in a few years."
Qin Baozhen said in surprise, "Really?"
Qin Zijin responded, "It's not fake. Just collect it. After collecting it, it makes it into starch, expose it to the sun, and then dry it and put it in a dry place."
Qin Huaidong is now convinced by Qin Zijin and responds without hesitation, "Okay, then stop."
It seemed that no one had forgotten to think deeply about things they didn't know, why did Qin Zijin know so much.
Qin Baozhen couldn't wait, "With this food called tofu, the restaurant must be unique. It seems that we have to organize this restaurant now."
Qin Zijin replied, "I think so. The cost of making tofu is low and simple. Why don't you open a tofu workshop at home first? We don't need to only supply our own restaurant. We can just make the business bigger. We can provide all the tofu that houses or restaurants need tofu. For restaurants, we don't need to rely entirely on tofu, we can win by relying on dishes."
Qin Huaidong nodded and responded, "Zi Jin said that if you want to open a restaurant, you must first find a place. Once you find the place, you have to repair it. Buy tables and chairs, and find people. All kinds of complicated things will definitely not be done in a while, but we can make this tofu immediately, and we will sell it to restaurants everywhere. With several dishes provided by Zi Jin, we don't have to worry about not being able to sell it."
Qin Zijin agreed, "Yes, this is also an investment at that time. The expenses for opening a restaurant at the beginning will definitely be quite large. With this investment, your funds will be much easier."
After this, Qin Huaidong did not plan to delay any further and immediately started to arrange it.
For rural people like them who work all year round, tofu is really not a heavy job.
The free women at home all went to work together, and the men helped out when they finished work at night. In just one night, they still earned about a hundred pounds without being very skilled.
Before dawn the next day, Qin Huaidong and his cousin Qin Zhendong, the cousin of the third uncle, went to the town with Qin Baozhen with their prepared tofu on their backs, rented a ox cart in the town, and then rushed to the county town early.
Qin Huaidong has had some knowledge of learning and writing. He is good at dealing with people and dealing with people. As soon as he arrived at the county town, he went straight to the restaurant he had been to with Li Zhi and Xia Ren and the others before.
Because of Li Zhi and Xia Ren, the restaurant owner personally treated them. When they saw Qin Huaidong, they were naturally very polite, which also facilitated Qin Huaidong's business.
After knowing Qin Huaidong's purpose, the restaurant owner was a little impatient at first, but because of the bad relationship between Li Zhi and Xia Ren, he disgraced Qin Huaidong.
After eating the tofu banquet made by Qin Baozhen, my eyes lit up and I completely lost my initial contempt and intolerance.
Those who do business are all talented, and the restaurant owner wants to buy it out directly and ask Qin Huaidong to provide them exclusively.
Qin Huaidong did not refuse openly, but said that he could supply at least a few thousand kilograms a day.
The price is not expensive, but how can he sell this small restaurant in a short time? In addition, this thing can't be released for a long time, so the restaurant owner can only give up his thoughts.
Of course, he didn't dare to think about anything else. After all, this person had dinner with the county magistrate and the others. None of them could be afforded by the boss of his small restaurant.
However, Qin Huaidong also gave the restaurant owner a favor. This time, all the tofu of more than 100 kilograms of tofu was left to the restaurant owner.
After leaving the restaurant, Qin Zhendong said excitedly, "We spent 15 cents of thirty pounds of soybeans. The tofu we made was sold for 2.5 taels and 2.5 taels and 2.5 taels and 2.5 taels and 2.5 taels and 2.5 taels and 2.5 taels and 3.5 taels and 3.5 taels and 3.5 taels and 3.6 taels and 3.6 taels and 3.6 taels and 3.6 taels and 3.6 taels and 3.6 taels and 3.6 taels and 4.6 taels and 5.6 taels and 5.6 taels and 5.6 taels and 5.6 taels and 5.6 taels and 5.6 taels and 5.6 taels and 5.6 taels and 5.6 taels and 5.6 taels and 5.6 taels and 5.6 taels and 5.6 taels and 6.6 taels and 6.6 taels and 7.6 taels and 7.6 taels and 9.6 taels and 9.6 taels and 9.6 taels and 9.6 taels and 9.6 taels and 9.6 taels and 9.6 taels and 9.6 taels and 9.6 taels and 9.6 taels and 9.6 taels and 9.6 taels and 9.6 taels and 9.6 taels and 9.6 taels and 9.6 taels and 9.6 taels and 9.6 taels and 9.6 taels and 9.6 taels and 9.6 taels and 9.6 taels and 9.6 taels and 9.6
Qin Baozhen responded with a hilarious look, "Look at your promising prospects, Zijin Baoli has earned so much but she hasn't seen you as excited."
Qin Zhendong was quite sober and responded, "That's different. Their things are expensive things for those noble ladies and rich ladies. We only eat ordinary food, so we can't compare."
However, Qin Zhendong quickly wondered again, "Brother, don't we go to see other restaurants? Why did we only give this one?"
Then Qin Huaidong smiled and replied, "Whose restaurant business is so easy to do? No one has seen this thing before. If we send it to other restaurants like this, people may not let us in, but next time we come again, other restaurants will definitely start to rush to ask for it."
