A small breakfast shop in the street market, supporting the family and making money

"Here, here, here. I'll have someone install it for you right away!"

Shopkeeper Zhao responded repeatedly.

With the money earned from these recipes, what I give away now is barely a drop in the bucket.

"Manager Zhao is straightforward!"

Leng Yan smiled happily.

Afterwards, Manager Zhao asked someone to pack the beef and mutton, while Leng Yan went to the private room with Chef Yang, wrote down the recipes of the dishes he had just made, and gave Chef Yang some detailed instructions on what to pay attention to.

When Shopkeeper Zhao returned to the box, in addition to the beef and mutton, he also gave two extra pieces of butter and a lot of beef shanks.

Finally, he brought out the dividend account book and settled the dividends for Leng Yan, as well as the reward for the recipe Leng Yan had provided just now.

After a detailed settlement, the two parties reached a friendly cooperation. Leng Yan took the silver and the beef and mutton in the basket with satisfaction, and bid farewell to Manager Zhao and Chef Yang.

After Leng Yan left Xianju Pavilion, she suddenly remembered the time she had agreed with Dalin and Erlin.

In the past, she came to Xianju Pavilion every month. In addition to settling the money, she would also teach Chef Yang two dishes, which didn't take long.

Therefore, she originally planned to walk to an empty alley after coming out of Xianju Pavilion and buy some taro from the system mall.

But the sudden appearance of beef and mutton caught her off guard, and she was so busy that she had already missed the agreed time.

No one knew how long Dalin and the others had been waiting. After Leng Yan reacted, she ran towards the agreed alley. Fortunately, she was very strong, otherwise she would have been unable to move with so much beef and mutton on her back.

Seeing that it was getting late, Leng Yan was afraid that Dalin and the others had not eaten, so when they passed by a bun shop on the way, she packed ten big meat buns.

When they arrived at the agreed alley, Leng Yan immediately saw Dalin and Erlin, who were running around in a panic.

"Hey, Mr. Yan, you are finally here."

Seeing this, Dalin and the other man took a few steps forward and looked Leng Yan over for a while, only then did they feel relieved.

"Hahaha, something delayed me."

Leng Yan touched his nose awkwardly, "By the way, have you eaten yet?"

Dalin and the other man shook their heads. They had originally wanted to wait until they met up with Leng Yan before going out to eat together, but after waiting for a long time and not seeing Leng Yan coming back, they were so anxious to eat that they forgot about it.

Seeing this, Leng Yan handed the big meat bun in his arms to them: "You must be starving! It's still hot, eat it while it's hot!"

"Thank you, Mr. Yan."

The two young men, Dalin and others, were of an age where they could eat, so they took the food and started to eat it with big mouthfuls without hesitation.

They squatted aside to eat, and Leng Yan put the basket on his back onto the ox cart. Then he found that the cart was loaded with a lot of taro, probably about 700 to 800 kilograms.

"Mr. Yan, my brother and I went to all the markets and only bought these!"

Dalin spoke incoherently while eating a meat bun.

"Yes, yes, taro was not that popular in previous years, so each household planted less of it." Erlin also joined in the conversation.

Hearing this, Leng Yan thought that these taro would be enough to last for a while, and he could just find a way to use them in the future.

So she nodded and said, "Okay, let's do this for now. It's getting late, let's go home!"

After that, they got on the ox cart and swayed back to Hulu Town.

When they arrived at the hot pot restaurant, it was the busiest time. After unloading the things from the ox cart, Dalin and Erlin had no time to clean up and started to work directly.

Leng Yan looked at the baskets of beef and thought that they were not heavy and not easy to come by, so he would definitely not sell them. He would just keep them for his family to eat and just to satisfy his craving.

Thinking of this, Leng Yan went to the kitchen to get a knife and cut about seven or eight pounds of beef, preparing to cook it as a staff meal in the evening so that everyone could have something good to eat.

She plans to take the remaining beef home in the evening and cook it for her grandfather, parents and other family members.

After the distribution, Leng Yan carried the beef into the kitchen and prepared the work meal first so that they could eat it after work.

"Hey, what kind of meat are you carrying? Why is it so red?"

Aunt Lu and a few others in the kitchen were methodically cutting mutton, marinating chicken legs, and preparing side dishes. When they saw the meat in Leng Yan's hand, they couldn't help but show curiosity.

"Yes, yes, this meat doesn't look like pork or mutton, does it?"

The aunts looked at each other.

“Is this beef?”

At this time, it was an aunt who spoke uncertainly. When she was a servant in a wealthy family, she saw the kitchen manager buy beef because the master liked to eat it very much.

Leng Yan nodded: "Yes, it's beef."

Ordinary people in this era rarely ate beef, and the number of times they saw it was very rare, or even they had never seen it.

"beef!"

Aunt Lu and the others were shocked, "This is beef. Beef actually looks like this!"

"Yes."

Leng Yan nodded, then put the beef into a wooden basin to wash it.

"Oh my god, I actually saw beef!" An aunt still found it incredible, "Isn't this something that only rich people can buy?"

Leng Yan laughed out loud: "Aunt, of course it's true. Not only is it true, we can eat beef tonight."

As she spoke, she quickly cut the beef into slices, marinated it, and fried it in a pan, all in one go.

The aunties nearby were simply stunned, and couldn't believe that the boss would actually cook such rare beef for them.

Just now they thought these were going to be sold, but seeing this, the aunts were all deeply moved and felt lucky that they had met such a good host.

The dishes made with beef by Leng Yan are all good with rice, such as stir-fried beef, stir-fried beef with coriander, and spicy boiled beef.

The workers who have been busy in the hot pot restaurant all day are already starving, and making some side dishes will make them more fragrant and warm.

There were more than 20 people in the restaurant. When they heard that most of the dishes today were made of beef, they were shocked and moved. They all secretly decided in their hearts to work loyally and hard.

Good food, good accommodation, high salary and good benefits, where can you find such a host!

"Okay, stop looking and eat!"

After Lengji Snack Shop closed, Leng Yan also called her parents to the hot pot restaurant to have dinner with everyone.

At this moment, with the order given, everyone, who had been unable to wait, picked up the vegetables with chopsticks and mixed them with rice, eating voraciously.

"Wow, this spicy boiled beef is so delicious, smooth, tender, and fragrant, and it goes really well with rice!"

"Yes, yes, so this is beef, fried with chili and mixed with rice, it smells really good!

"Yes, yes, yes, this beef tastes better the more you chew it. It is really delicious!"

Everyone praised the food as they ate, and it was a meal that they were unable to get enough of and would remember forever.

After dinner, it was getting late, so Leng Yan and her parents drove the ox cart back to the village. After the rest of the people cleaned up the store, they went back to the house (dormitory) in the town to rest.

After the carriage swayed back home, Leng Yan carried the basket of beef on his back and stored it well in the kitchen. There was no need to worry about it going bad in the cold weather.

She put the beef into a basket, covered it with a wooden basin and pressed it with stones to make sure it would not be taken away by wild cats. She then poured out some of the hot water that had been warming in the pot, washed up simply, and went back to her room to sleep.

After a busy day, she fell asleep and had a good sleep. The next day, Leng Yan was woken up by the crowing of a rooster in the backyard.

She rubbed her sleepy eyes, got up and left the room. She saw Leng Huai sweeping the yard with a broom and subconsciously asked, "Uncle, why didn't you go to private school today?"
