Chapter 572 Selling Sprouts
Chapter 572 Selling Sprouts
Wei Yan knew that the host family didn't eat pork, so the recipe he prepared did not include pork.
"Yesterday, Brother Han Qi said he would bring a few rabbits today and asked me to go to the shop to get them. I thought I would roast a rabbit for everyone at noon today, stir-fry some cabbage, and serve it with mixed grain rice. Do you think it's okay?"
When Wei Yan said this, he was a little worried that Xu Han would blame him for cooking too well. You know, when Wei Yan was in the house of his previous master, the servants had never eaten such a good meal.
Servants in every household have to eat cabbage and radishes every day, and they can only eat meat once every ten days or half a month.
Moreover, the dishes were all from a big pot. Although they were meat, each person could not get a single piece of meat. Even if there was meat in the pot, it would have been taken away by the manager in advance, leaving no room for the people below to eat.
If the servants didn't eat like this, how could the master afford to support them?
It is simply impossible to pay wages and give people meat at the same time.
Wei Yan had eaten meat several times in the past two days since he came here, and he even killed several chickens yesterday, so he felt very guilty when he said this.
Unexpectedly, Xu Han didn't care at all, "Well, add some egg soup. It's cold today, and some soup can warm your stomach.
Everyone has been busy these days, so we need to eat something good. "
It's not that Xu Han is poor and generous. The people under him work really hard and don't let Xu Han worry about anything. They go to work at dawn every day and don't come back until dark at night.
Which boss doesn’t like employees like this? Just eat a little, it’s nothing serious. It’s not like you can’t afford it.
If Xu Han is stingy, the people below him will learn to slack off over time. In this case, it is better for him to be more generous.
This way, the people below can work more vigorously and you can save yourself a lot of trouble. The most important thing is to get the work done in this way!
After arranging lunch, Xu Han turned around and went to the mountain products shop.
The shop is going to sell bean sprouts today, but I don’t know how they are selling. I’d better go and check it out in person to feel at ease.
When she arrived at the shop, it was still crowded and very busy.
After nodding and greeting them, she walked around the shop on her own.
The sprouts were placed in the most conspicuous position. Because of the strong promotion yesterday, some people bought bean sprouts today.
But the effect is not very good and not many people buy it.
Xu Han looked for a while and came to Li Wen. At this time, Li Wen was vigorously promoting a large basket of bean sprouts and mung bean sprouts in front of him.
"How is it? Not selling well?"
Li Wen nodded. "Maybe it's because no one has eaten it before, or it's not common. Some people bought some and planned to try it. Some people just said they had never eaten it before and didn't know how to eat it. So not many people came to buy it this morning, and only a little was bought."
Li Wen was rummaging through the basket in front of him. Xu Han followed his line of sight and saw a full basket of bean sprouts, of which he had only bought a small piece.
Xu Han picked up a handful of mung bean sprouts and soybean sprouts and said, "I'll make some for them to taste. They don't buy it because many people haven't eaten it before and don't know how to eat it, and those who have eaten it don't know how to cook it. In this case, let's let them taste it and then teach them how to cook it."
After Xu Han finished speaking, she didn't wait for Li Wen to reply and turned around and went to the small kitchen in the backyard.
The kitchen supplies here are not complete, but fortunately there are seasonings in the space. In addition, Xu Han came with a basket in her hand, and they didn’t know what was in the basket, so it is convenient to use it now.
Unable to make complicated dishes, Xu Han simply stir-fried some spicy and sour mung bean sprouts, and then made a portion of cold bean sprouts.
These two dishes are very simple and can be prepared in about fifteen minutes.
Xu Han brought the freshly cooked bean sprouts into the shop, and then asked Li Wen to invite the customers in the shop to come and try the new dishes.
Everyone was not shy about coming over. When they heard that there were new dishes to be tasted for free, they all came over immediately.
"You know what, these bean sprouts taste really good. These mung bean sprouts are also delicious, the sour and spicy taste is really appetizing."
"Yes, yes. Vegetables are scarce in winter. If we add this dish to the table, it can change the taste."
"Yes, yes, yes. My husband complains about radishes and cabbages every day. Bean sprouts are not expensive. They cost two cents per pound. One pound can make a large plate of stir-fried vegetables, enough for the whole family to have a meal. This price is reasonable."
Xu Han listened to everyone talking, and when everyone had finished their discussion, she said, "Everyone, be quiet and listen to me first. Sprouts are a new vegetable in our family, and they are not sold anywhere else.
The price we buy is not expensive, two cents per pound, and one pound is enough to stir-fry a dish.
There are many ways to eat bean sprouts. Bean sprouts can be eaten cold or fried. They taste great when made into soup. You can stew bean sprouts with tofu or stir-fry bean sprouts with meat.
The same goes for mung bean sprouts. Stir-fried mung bean sprouts, spicy and sour mung bean sprouts, and scrambled mung bean sprouts with eggs all taste great.
In short, there are many ways to eat sprouts. You can try a few more when you go back home."
When everyone heard that the price was not only cheap but also that there were cooking instructions, they immediately started rushing to buy, fearing that if they were too late they would be sold out.
After the excitement, Li Wen wiped the sweat from his forehead and gave Xu Han a thumbs up.
"Madam is amazing. I thought we couldn't sell any sprouts today, but I didn't expect you to sell so many right after you came."
Xu Han smiled and said, "In the future, if you encounter such a situation, especially if it is a dish they have never eaten before, you can make some for everyone to taste. Only after they have eaten it themselves can they know whether it is delicious or not.
Of course, if you don’t know how to do it, just let others do it for you and then take it over.
There is some of what I made left in the kitchen. When there are more people around, you can serve it out to let them try.
If I teach them how to cook the dish the way I just did, then most people will choose to buy the two-cent dish and give it a try."
Li Wen nodded quickly and said, "Yes, two cents is not expensive, and ordinary people are willing to buy some to try it out.
Besides, the bean sprouts taste so good, they will definitely want to buy more next time. There are not many vegetables to eat in winter, and they are tired of eating cabbage and radish. "
Xu Han heard this and asked again, "By the way, is the tofu ready?"
Li Wen hurriedly said, "It's ready. Everyone has eaten tofu. It's only halfway through the morning and the tofu is almost sold out."
"Looking at the weather, it's going to snow, and we won't be able to deliver the tofu tomorrow.
I don’t know whether the sprouts that were sent to my home were delivered in advance.
If it snows heavily, the sprouts will be wasted after they have sprouted.”
