The tricycles at the entrance of the Hong Yanwu Forbidden City and the stalls at the Donghuamen Night Market are all popular.
In fact, this is not surprising, because everything is like "there is a road ahead and a road behind."
For example, take a tricycle tour in the alleyways.
That's because the tricycle was made so exquisite and beautiful by Master Sun and others.
Just look at this car body, it's so shiny.
Look at the steel bars and tile rings of the wheel, they are shining and dazzling in the sunlight.
Then look at the push handle behind the car body, the bottom of the carport, around the car body, in front of the handlebars, the dustpan, etc.
Those are all "copper ornaments" clad in white copper. When you rub them with copper polish, they really shine everywhere.
Finally, the car skirt with flowers is added, which is snow-white.
On both sides of the dustpan, there is a large electric car light made of white copper, which can really shine at night.
What foreigner wouldn’t love a tricycle like this?
If you put it on the square at the north gate of the Forbidden City every day, it is the most vivid advertisement.
No need to say hello at all, domestic and foreign guests will automatically gather around me.
And the coachmen's appearance is really outstanding.
Not only are they all young men, they are also dressed in the same uniform.
Wearing a linen coat, black silk bloomers, white socks and black round-top shoes, they were all washed and spotless.
What if the car started running down the street?
That's a nice car, nice guy.
Walking through the city, the breeze blows slowly, and the foreigners sit dignified and comfortable.
The driver also looked clean and handsome!
It can make everyone along the way pay attention!
In addition, the hutongs in Beijing truly belong to another strange world for foreigners.
As soon as the No. 3 bus enters the alley, there is no trace of modernization, and the dust and noise disappear.
The ancient brick walls and house doors are intertwined, and the atmosphere is filled with moss, shade, the fragrance of flowers and the chirping of birds.
I could only listen to the car's footbell ringing "ding ling, ding ling" and watch ordinary residents walking around.
It was like bringing foreigners into a distant era and into the lives of ordinary people in the capital.
For foreigners, this novel comprehensive experience is like watching an old movie about the mysterious East.
It's really easy to touch their hearts.
This is just like going on a boat to Venice and riding an elephant when going to Thailand.
If you don’t try it, foreigners will feel deeply regretful and regret it greatly.
The same goes for the stalls at Donghuamen Night Market. There are reasonable reasons why business is booming.
For example, let’s sell travel supplies.
That's because when foreigners visit the Forbidden City and enter, they usually go through the north and south main entrances.
I liked the travel products when I saw them, but some people were too lazy to hold them. Maybe they thought it would be too late to buy them when they came out, so they didn't pay for them.
But often when the Forbidden City is closed, they come out from the side door and naturally don't buy anything.
I was regretting this, but happened to see it again at the night market at Donghuamen without even taking two steps.
Think about it, what a surprise it is, can you still miss it?
Of course, there must be people who have bought it but regretted buying less.
Let's take another example of a clothing stall. The truth is also obvious.
Because the products sold are all Guangdong goods bought by Hong Yanwu from Huacheng, which are fashionable and cheap.
And who is Hong Yanwu? He is so good at taking advantage of opportunities and seizing the pulse of the times.
For example, when he first introduced jeans, he knew how to take advantage of Ken Takakura's celebrity effect.
So once "Blood Doubt" airs on TV this year, naturally he will not miss such a good opportunity.
In fact, he almost immediately gave instructions to Huacheng as soon as he learned about it.
Wearing items such as "Sachiko shirt", "Mitsuo shirt", and "Oshima Shigeru bag" are available.
Therefore, less than half a year after the TV series was broadcast, the self-employed people in Beijing and the "Ahua" and "Achang" in Huacheng all made a fortune.
Especially "Ahua", she specializes in making bags.
I just made a lot of money with the "pocket bag" designed by Hong Yanwu, and expanded the small workshop of five or six people to twenty people.
Then he continued his efforts on "Oshima Shibao".
By the time the deal was completed, she had thirty employees, rented a warehouse as a factory, and really started a factory.
Recently, the movie "Red Dresses Are Popular on the Street" was staged in Beijing.
Hong Yanwu once again ordered a large number of red dresses to be imported from Huacheng and sold in the capital.
Needless to say, I took my first bite with my quick reaction.
It can be said that 80% of the red dresses all over the capital are his products.
Think about it, in this age where following fashion is a no-brainer, in this age where people don’t have much time for shopping, can business still be good?
As for the food stalls, that's easier to explain.
Beijing-style snacks such as "Wonton Hou", "Pie Zhou", "Fried Gan Zhao", "Tea Tang Li", and "Cheese Wei" are indeed delicious and famous.
Logically speaking, these famous stalls should be the most popular ones.
But the problem is that as a state-owned snack bar, there are too many restrictions in all aspects.
Apart from anything else, the leaders cannot pay too much attention to such a newly opened night market.
There is also the issue of employee motivation.
How many people can they send and how big of a stall can they occupy?
In addition, there was a lack of refrigeration methods such as refrigerators and freezers, so most of the work at the night market had to be done on the spot.
Moreover, snacks require careful workmanship. They are not quite the same as fast food. They cannot be too fast.
As a result, the varieties of state-owned snack bars are relatively single and the manpower is insufficient. If they face more than ten or twenty people, they can still cope with it.
If dozens or even hundreds of people swarmed in at every turn, it would be beyond the scope of our capabilities.
On the other hand, the chefs in the "Big Canteen" are different.
In terms of resources, Hong Yanwu is the deputy section chief of the factory's administrative department, and Master Pang is the head of the canteen.
Artificial ice from polar bears, all kinds of goodies, plus beer and soda, as well as transporting people.
Hong Yanwu used his power for personal gain and sent all the cars to the night market through the deployment of the service company's cars.
As for the ingredients that needed to be prepared in the evening, even in the class in the cafeteria, Master Pang took everyone to prepare them one by one.
It's really convenient and convenient. The layout and logistics alone are unmatched by other stalls.
In terms of work attitude, everyone is not like the employees of the state-owned snack bar, who look reluctant and complain all the time.
Although many people just left the class, they did it for themselves.
Under economic stimulation, people become more energetic and motivated.
Of course, the most important thing is the way you work.
The people in the "Big Canteen" have to feed the two thousand people in the factory every day, and they don't feel intimidated by how many people there are.
Especially the team leaders, Master Pang and Master Gou, they were all originally in the "kouzi" position, and they used to specialize in "official events".
What I am best at is how to operate in an unfamiliar environment, so that there is no chaos when there are many people, and it is easy to eat delicious food.
To put it bluntly, the operation method of "Big Canteen" is closer to "modern fast food".
When it comes to serving the public, there is probably no one more professional than them in the Chinese food category in this era.
Don’t believe it yet, just take the group of meat pie, pie, pot sticker, glutinous rice dumpling, roasted rice dumpling, served with millet porridge, stick dregs porridge, and lotus leaf porridge.
It looks like there are quite a lot of meat and vegetables, but if you look carefully, you can see that they are all stuffed and baked with a big iron pan.
There is a clear division of labor and reasonable arrangements. With so many types, only five people are actually needed to handle it.
Two cooks, one a bakery, one a porridge helper, and one who collects money to take out the garbage are enough.
The same goes for other groups. Some specialize in stir-frying in large pots, some specialize in steaming food in the upper drawer, and some specialize in cooking noodles in the lower pot.
Never include food prepared in other ways.
So practice makes perfect, just like an assembly line, each customer won't have to wait long.
What’s more, I should point out that the people at “Da Canteen” not only make the food quickly, but also the taste is not bad.
Even if we talk about the word "delicious", it is no worse than the time-honored brand.
For example, let’s take the “stuffed” group’s steamed dumplings.
This is a unique diet on "Kouzi".
Although the "Ruibin Building" in "Menzha Hutong" is famous for this, its reputation has always been No. 1 in the capital.
But that was also the founder's violation of the "kouzi" rules in order to make a living, and it spread from the industry.
The disciples taught by Master Pang and Master Gou are the ones who are doing the right thing.
Another example is the "stir-fry group", which also has two kinds of food that show off their skills.
One is "egg fried rice" and the other is "fried rice dumplings".
This "egg fried rice" seems like everyone can make it, but in reality it's not easy.
It’s just like what Yu Chengqing sang, “The simplest but also the most difficult, the rice has to be separated and still have eggs on it.”
Don't doubt it, this is not fake.
Like the "egg fried rice" that most people have eaten, the eggs and rice grains are separated, right?
That's called "Broken Gold Rice", and it's the easiest way to make it at home.
There is another kind, which must be evenly coated with egg paste on the rice grains. This is called "gold-wrapped silver".
But it is a unique skill in the "Kouzi" industry.
In the past, people in the capital always had to hold birthday parties.
Therefore, if "Kouzi" is good, even "Egg Fried Rice" cannot be careless. You still have to pay attention to auspiciousness.
Similarly, there are gold-wrapped silver rolls and gold-wrapped silver cakes, which really take a lot of effort.
The production requirement for this kind of "egg fried rice" is that the appearance must be "gold and silver clear", not "crystal clear".
In addition, the most important thing in terms of taste is lard.
Between the dancing of egg liquid and spatula, the rice, eggs, and green onions must be mixed and intersected evenly and delicately.
Don't underestimate this.
A simple bowl of lard rice can often make picky gourmets cry.
Whether it's rice, noodles, wontons, or vegetables, just adding a spoonful of lard can produce magical effects.
It is true that eating too much lard is not good for your health and you should not eat too much.
But other than meeting the chef at "Kouzi", where else can I get the chance to eat such wonderful egg fried rice?
Since it is so rare, if you only want to have a nice mouth and a smelly butt, this shortcoming can be ignored.
