Chapter 192 191. Lazi Opens Blind Box
Not only can we no longer bear it, but more and more people are coming.

There's nothing we can do. All four doors are wide open.

The curtain was also lifted in order to enter and exit the kitchen.

Master Lu always stabbed me.
The fragrance is so refreshing when it comes out.

It was almost dinner time, and the mall was crowded. Luo Yihang felt that half of the people in the mall had come.

The long line stretched out for a long distance, forming a circle.

The number of security guards has been increased to twelve.

Then Luo Yihang saw a few more people in the team...

Wasn't that the one who sent the steamed buns just now? Why didn't he reply after he came?

And those two, wearing red vests from the mobile phone store, came over. There are only two people in your store, right? Aren’t you afraid of attracting thieves if all of them come over?

The one with the green apron, he's from the hotpot restaurant on the fifth floor. Why is he running all the way downstairs instead of soliciting customers at the door?

Not only them, but all the shops in the entire mall were leaning on the railings to watch the fun. There were shop assistants constantly muttering to each other, and groups of three or five people dropped their work and sneaked to the back to queue up.

The opening day wasn't as busy as today.

And it was all in vain, all I did was attract attention but didn't make any money. I had a turnover of tens of thousands in one night, but it was all gone today.

Spicy steamed buns will be on the menu tomorrow, at least ten yuan each. We can make money from them and make up for the losses.

As a result, it still doesn’t work.

At around nine o'clock in the evening, someone in the kitchen shouted, "The chili is gone!"

The people in the barbecue restaurant cheered weakly, "Hurray! It's finally gone."

These people were so tired and hungry that they didn't even have the energy to shout slogans.

But there are two or three hundred people queuing outside, and they won't do that.

Shouting "No! I don't agree!"

Liu Piaoliang hurried out to comfort her.

Later, a bunch of slips of paper were printed out temporarily, stamped on them, and one was given to each person in the queue. After the spicy steamed bun was released, they could get one for free with the coupon.

The crowd then dispersed.

Return to the store.

Luo Yihang, Liu Piaoliang, Chef Lu, Hong, Hui, the four kitchen helpers, Expert Ma and the three little Luos, and the two most tragic characters of the day, the waiters who were on the front line and got nothing.

Fourteen people sat slumped in a circle, neither eating nor drinking but not wanting to move.

tired.

The four kitchen helpers’ hands were shaking as they kneaded the dough. In one night, they steamed more than two thousand steamed buns.

100 kilograms of noodles ruined two bags.

Master Lu looked like he had been exposed to oil all over his body, with grease spots all over his body.

The whole person, hey, smells good.

Today he used all 5.3 kilograms of dried chilies to make chili oil, repeating the process more than times and making more than kilograms.

I didn't expect that today would be so busy.

Luo Yihang took the initiative to step forward and make amends, "Everyone has worked hard today. I will personally pay for bonuses for everyone. Everyone will get one."

The only way to relieve worries is cash.

As soon as the word "giving out money" was mentioned, the whole audience cheered and all the tiredness disappeared.

The tiredness is gone, and I remember it when I was hungry.

Master Lu said, "Let's see if there's anything else to eat, something simple."

There is a lot of food in the kitchen, so today’s crayfish are not selling well.

But I really don’t have the heart to do it.

Simple, "There are still twenty or so steamed buns. How about some noodles and some cold dishes?" said a kitchen helper.

"No need. Steamed buns will do." Master Lu struggled to stand up, walked to the kitchen, and took out a basin from under the counter.

"Hehe, I just remembered that there is still some chili left from the first time I made it. It was paired with the steamed buns that Boss Luo bought. There were not enough steamed buns, so the chili was not used up."

A cunning old man.

"That's great, let's try it." Hong, the waiter's supervisor, stood up happily, took a steamed bun with spicy sauce, and gave one to each of her subordinates. She also took one for herself and took a bite.

"fragrant!"

The waiters were awful today, they had to eat what they were supposed to eat first.

Liu Piaoliang and Luo Yihang also took a steamed bun each and ate while chatting.

"Brother Luo, we were really too rushed today. I even forgot to count the number in advance. Now that we're in line, please put up a sign saying that this is the end." Liu Piaoliang was still reviewing the situation in her mind.

Luo Yihang waved his hand at him and said, "Business is delayed today, and the loss in turnover will be deducted from my share."

Liu Piaoliang quickly shook her head, "How can I lose money? Brother Luo, just wait and see. Starting from tomorrow, I will definitely make a lot of money."

"But there will be no chili peppers tomorrow, and I can't supply them."

"Not in the spicy sauce."

Liu Piaoliang will give you some basic knowledge. It is actually very simple. It is just like a big advertisement today, the kind where eggs are given away at the supermarket entrance.

It doesn’t matter if you just get the eggs and leave. As long as you know there is a supermarket here, you’ve achieved success.

Today, more than 2,000 people knew there was a barbecue restaurant here and tried the food. It was great.

Next time he comes and wants to eat, he will think of this place, so it will be a good deal.

"Brother Luo, how are you going to sell these chilies? Are you going to sell them directly in the store?"

Luo Yihang thought about it and shook his head. "The quantity this time is too large. I'm afraid the store can't digest it. I planted 10 acres and can harvest at least two tons of dried chili peppers. If all of them are used to make chili oil, it will be almost 10 tons. Dried chili peppers are stored in large quantities and have a shelf life of at most half a year. The store can't use tons in half a year."

Liu Piaoliang thought about it and agreed. The quantity was too large. "If you sell the chili sauce directly, one pound per bottle, maybe you can sell it. But if you sell spicy steamed buns, it's a risk."

"I have thought about bottling it, but I need to find a food processing factory first, get approval, and design the packaging. I plan to do it after I test the formula today." "You want to set up a food processing factory, OK, we also need to fry mushrooms, make pre-fried semi-finished products, and send them to the store for re-frying."

"I prefer to rent a production line first. If there is a suitable one, I can buy it. If there is no suitable one, I will make it myself. I plan to ask Qiangwa to look for it first."

"Brother Qiang is good, he has a wide network of contacts, hey, what do you think of this matter, would Brother Qiang be willing to take part in it..."
-
We talked about various things, big and small.

Enough rest.

Everyone got off work early today, and Luo Yihang also took the horse expert and the three little Luos home in two cars.

After I got home, I called Qiangwa first. When I told him what happened, he scolded me. He hadn't figured out the situation at the mushroom bag factory yet, but now he was looking for the food factory. I told him to just kill him.

But Qiangwa is a man with a sharp tongue but a soft heart. Although he cursed a lot, he finally agreed and asked someone.

Then Luo Yihang called Master Wang again to discuss improving the formula.

This time Master Wang agreed immediately to come over and take a look on Saturday.

The timing is perfect, there are still three days until Saturday, and the next batch of peppers should be dried by then.

Saturday.

BBQ restaurant.

Master Wang arrived as promised.

In the kitchen, Luo Yihang and Chef Lu talked about what happened that day.

After listening to this, Master Wang laughed and pointed at Luo Yihang, "Your kid is just wasting things. Old man Xu is also ignorant. He just wants the best of everything. How can there be so many best things? How can we use all the best things?"

"If they all use your chili peppers, it will drive people crazy. If we don't tear down your store that day, it will be because the people who come here are of good quality."

Wang's basic principle is to use whatever is available and rely on craftsmanship to make something that scores 60 points out of 80 points.

He can't make something that's only 60 points like Master Xu. He can only use something that's 100 points to make 120 points. It's completely different from his approach.

The two old men have to work together.

This time, Master Wang did not change the process, but directly changed the raw materials.

Start with one part Reiki chili to nine parts regular chili and work your way up.

"This has another advantage. You're going to make bottled products, too. If you use your own chili peppers, it will have the same flavor. If you mix them like I do, you can have many different flavors."

"If you use Qin pepper, it will be spicy. If you add more Ma pepper, it will be spicy. If you add some lantern pepper to increase the spiciness, you can also choose medium, high or extra spicy."

While chatting, his hands were moving.

The dosage of Lingqi chili should start from 10% and then gradually increase up to 50%.

After comprehensive evaluation, everyone agreed that 30% was a suitable ratio, with a strong fragrance but not as overpowering as that day.

A balance between taste and cost.

After the benchmark ratio is determined.

Chef Wang came for a few more days and tried spicy, medium spicy, extra spicy, sweet and spicy flavors, and various rice sauces with diced chicken, beef jerky, stir-fried pork, and even crayfish meat.

There is a rustling sound in the kitchen every day.

This time, because the amount of Lingqi pepper used was less, the entire mall was no longer filled with the fragrance.

It will only float out of the door.

But this is unbearable.

As long as people who are shopping in the mall do not have a cold, they will unconsciously stop and take a deep breath with a look of enjoyment when passing by the door.

My stomach started to growl and I walked in following the smell.

Then sit down, order food and eat, and then ask which thing smells so good.

The ready-made guinea pigs came to your door.

Luo Yihang was not a stingy person, and whenever someone asked about it, he would take some out and invite the guests to try it.

But what flavor is given depends on what is being tested now.

Customers who come to the barbecue restaurant these days are in luck.

It's like opening a blind box. One meal is intoxicated by the fragrance, the next meal is so spicy, and the next meal is so uncomfortable. It's so awkward.

I'm talking about the customer who has only loved spicy food with oil all his life. Ever since he tried a spicy steamed bun, he has come here every day just to try the food.

Who would have thought that this person doesn't like sweet food, so when he encountered sweet and spicy taste, he felt very uncomfortable.

In the end, based on the opinions of many diners, the basic spicy flavor, the enhanced medium spicy flavor, the special spicy flavor, and the flavored shredded chicken and beef flavors were retained.

All others are heresy!

Especially the sweet ones!
Everything is ready, all we need is time.

There are not many mature peppers in the fields now, and only about ten kilograms of dried peppers can be produced after a week's storage.

It was sent to the barbecue restaurant and made into chili oil according to the 30% spicy recipe, which was enough for a while.

Although some diners asked why the spicy steamed bun they sold tasted different from the one they sold that day, it was far worse.

Liu Piaoliang went over and started crying, saying that the cost was too high and she couldn't afford it, and that the production was not enough.

Then he took out photos of the pepper fields and showed them to people. The fields were neatly laid out, with each plant looking energetic and beautiful. The peppers were hanging densely, presenting a scene of a good harvest.

However, there are few red peppers hanging there.

"You all know that my raw materials are very particular, and the same goes for peppers. Have you ever seen such a spirit? From hundreds or thousands of acres, I chose a small piece of Feng Shui treasure land. Moreover, I never harvest them in advance and dry them with machines. They are left to mature naturally. After they are all red, they are picked by hand and dried in the traditional way before they are used to make chili oil."

"That's the problem. It's slow, and only a few can be cooked every day. I really have to count the chilies I make."

"Besides, with the taste of that last time, according to my store's standards, I'll sell it to you for 10 yuan. Do you think it's possible?"

"I, Liu Ying, always charge one cent for one cent of the material, and I dare to sell ten cents for ten cents of the material. I am never afraid of high prices, because my products are worth the money."

Once these words are said, no matter what the customers think in their hearts, they will agree with it on the surface.

It happened within two days.

This 30% version of spicy steamed bun is limited...
