Chapter 79: Dumplings and Cold-Removing Jiao Er Soup
"Brother Hi, don't be stunned, give it a try."
The dumplings were almost cooked, so of course a restaurant clerk took them out of the big iron pot and filled them with bowls. Yi Xiaotian took the initiative to bring two bowls to Cao Cao, and Cao Ren handed them over.
Cao Cao and Cao Ren took it, not to mention anything else. In the bitingly cold weather, such a bowl of hot soup was enough to make them thirsty.
All the guests were confused at first, but who among the crowd shouted out... "This Quhan Jiao Er Decoction can prevent typhoid fever..."
All of a sudden, the whole restaurant exploded inside and outside...
All the guests crowded tightly around the big iron pot, holding out their hands with money bags dangling in their hands. They just wanted to throw the money bags into the iron pot.
"Bring me a bowl..."
"I also want…"
"First come, first served, I was the first to come around..."
They were scrambling, as if they were afraid that they would not be able to drink this bowl of Quhan Jiao Er Soup or eat this hot dumplings.
…
Huo…
The effect is good!
Yi Xiaotian looked around at everyone vying for the dumplings and cold-dispelling jiaoer soup, and felt very happy!
Congratulations on getting rich. May you make money in the right way.
It looks like I can make a lot of money again.
turn out to be…
The person who shouted out that Quhan Jiaoer Decoction could cure typhoid fever, or rather the sitter... was one of Yi Xiaotian's arrangements in advance.
Many times, especially during this sensitive period...
It is easy for people to blindly follow the words of a shill. People are always good at following trends. You can make a lot of money by using this!
When thinking of this, Yi Xiaotian felt very sad!
It was another wonderful night, and the joy of being hit with five baht dollars was unparalleled.
Of course.
Even though he had arranged this early in the morning, it was considered a marketing ploy!
But in fact...this Quhan Jiao Er Soup and Dumplings really have a positive significance in treating typhoid fever and keeping out the cold...
According to records in ancient historical books, during the period from the Later Han Dynasty to the Three Kingdoms, the severe cold of the Little Ice Age was no joke.
According to legend, even in southern cities and counties like Yangzhou and Soochow, heavy snow can fall for several days and nights, and it can pile up to five or six feet thick. It really freezes three feet of ice overnight...
Yanzhou belongs to the Central Plains and is colder than the south...
During this period, when fighting, soldiers had to sit around a fire to roast for a long time, otherwise they would not be able to stretch out their hands.
Of course, such severe cold weather also makes typhoid fever more prevalent.
If we follow the normal historical trajectory, Zhang Zhongjing wrote "Treatise on Febrile and Miscellaneous Diseases" thirty years later, completely eradicating typhoid fever.
But in the intervening thirty years? How did the people keep out the cold and resist typhoid fever?
It was Zhang Zhongjing. Five years later, he invented the cold-removing jiaoer soup and dumplings. It was exactly this kind of soup made from mutton and various cold-removing herbs, and the mutton dumpling stuffing mixed with Chinese herbal medicine made the big man's
The people survived one cold night after another!
Of course, because of Yi Xiaotian, "Treatise on Febrile and Miscellaneous Diseases" came out thirty years in advance, and dumplings and Quhan Jiaoer Soup were presented in restaurants five years in advance!
Therefore, strictly speaking, although Yi Xiaotian's nature as a profiteer is undoubtedly revealed, he has made a lot of money.
But he is still an upright businessman. At the very least, he will not sell inferior products. The dumplings and Quhan Jiaoer Soup he sells can still withstand the scrutiny and test of time and efficacy!
…
So fragrant…
Exhale a hot breath...
At this moment, Cao Ren's mouth was full of oil, and his cheeks seemed to be congested, replacing the paper-white face before, and it was so rosy.
I don’t know, is it the effect of the dumplings? Or is it the effect of the cold-dispelling jiaoer soup?
All in all, my body and bones are warm, my ears are no longer stiff, my hands are no longer trembling, and even my fists have become more powerful...
"one more bowl…"
Cao Ren extended the bowl to Yi Xiaotian very rudely.
Yi Xiaotian shook his head. "Brother Ren, this bowl is very expensive. You should drink less. I just cooked a big pot and I still have to sell it for money."
Uh...Cao Ren was confused.
Is he the one who needs those few strings of five baht coins?
"No matter, Brother Yi, you have to serve me another bowl. I'm so hungry..."
When it came to filling another bowl, Cao Ren's eyes widened and he stared at the dumplings in the big iron pot. The dumplings flowed all over the floor, as if he had never seen the world!
The main thing is that it tastes really good, and... the most important thing - it dispels cold!
After drinking the soup and eating the dumplings, my body feels warm. Even if such dishes are more expensive, there will definitely be a lot of customers flocking to them!
"Haha..." Cao Cao shook his head, smiled bitterly, and stretched out his hand to pull Cao Ren.
Immediately his eyes turned to Yi Xiaotian, "Brother Yi, this brother of mine has a problem. He is greedy and makes you laugh."
"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter!"
Yi Xiaotian smiled slightly, he had also made a joke to Cao Ren before.
But I saw him walking quietly to Cao Cao and Cao Ren, and whispered.
"Brother Hao, brother Ren, I left a small pot in the kitchen for you. If you don't mind, I will take you to the kitchen. You can eat as many dumplings as you want! If you can treat others badly, you can also treat brother Hao badly.
, Brother Ren, can’t you do it?”
Huo...and Xiao Zao.
Cao Ren suddenly became happy, and Cao Cao also laughed...
There are so many people here and it is no place to talk. Cao Cao still has many things to ask Yi Xiaotian.
Thoughts on this…
The three of them walked quickly towards the kitchen area.
At this time, the kitchen was empty, and all the cooks and waiters went to the main hall of the restaurant to be busy selling cold-removing Jiaoer soup.
The kitchen area seemed unusually quiet.
Yi Xiaotian planned to bring a small pot and serve a few more bowls to Cao Cao and Cao Ren...
The customer is God, and "fat sheep" and "leeks" are God's God!
However, Cao Cao was not willing to let Brother Yi serve the soup himself and hurriedly winked at Cao Ren.
Cao Ren also understood and immediately grabbed Yi Xiaotian.
"Brother Yi, let me come...you have been working for a long time, it's time to take a rest!"
Cao Cao took advantage of the situation and pulled Yi Xiaotian to sit in front of a kitchen table...
The kitchen table is filled with various medicinal materials, which Yi Xiaotian prepared based on the recipe of cold dispelling jiaoer soup in his memory.
The first time I tried it, I didn’t know the amount of various medicinal ingredients very well.
only…
The piles of Chinese medicine will make others think that this is not a kitchen but a pharmacy.
"Brother Yi? Your Quhan Jiao Er Soup and Dumplings are a bit interesting!"
As soon as Cao Cao sat down, he couldn't help but speak. "I was still cold all over just now, but now I ate a few dumplings and drank a bowl of Quhan Jiaoer soup, and my whole body felt very warm... This dish is wonderful.
No wonder Brother Yi can make a lot of money."
"Where are you going!"
Being praised lavishly by Cao Cao, Yi Xiaotian suddenly became angry. He stretched out his hand and pointed out the window.
"Brother Bao, I'm not bragging to you. As long as you drink my soup and eat my dumplings, you won't feel the slightest bit of cold even if you walk on this icy cold official road for a whole day! When Brother Bao goes back,
, you can feel the feelings!”
call out…
etc…
As soon as Yi Xiaotian said these words, Cao Cao suddenly shuddered?
Bitingly cold? Outside? Walking all day?
This series of keywords made him think of the expedition of the three armies, the freezing cold weather, and the constraints of the emperor - the bitingly cold ghost weather!
Huh...Cao Cao took a deep breath.
Could it be that this is the nemesis of this bad weather, and the way for these three armies to keep out the cold when traveling long distances? Is this the dumplings and cold-removing Jiao Er Soup?
When he thought of this, Cao Cao's body trembled, and his whole spirit became a lot excited.
"Brother Yi? What do you mean, if we are an army, the food will be changed to this cold-dispelling jiaoer soup and dumplings? Even if it is freezing cold? Even if it is a long march? The soldiers of the three armies will not be attacked by this frost and cold.
?Won’t you freeze your hands and ears, and won’t you suffer from terminal typhoid fever?”
At this point, Cao Cao felt that he seemed a little too excited, so he hurriedly waved his hands and explained again and again.
"Brother Yi, what I mean is that if what Brother Yi said is true, then this cold-dispelling Jiaoer soup and dumplings are a big business opportunity! If we sell its formula to Cao Cao, we will definitely make a lot of money.
Even if the pen is not intact, it is still a great achievement!"
