The first step in the book is to start selling tofu

The cooking time for each ingredient is different.

For example, pig intestines take about half an hour, eggs take four quarters of an hour, and small intestines take about an hour.

Therefore, the first ingredient to be put into the pot is the one that takes the longest time to braise, and the order cannot be messed up.

As time goes by, the aroma of the marinade blends with the aroma of the meat, and the fragrance spreads everywhere. The fishy smell of offal suddenly turns into a delicacy that tempts people to commit crimes.

"Mom, when can we eat?"

Daya stood by the pot and couldn't move, staring at the steaming pot.

"You can't eat yet. You have to wait until the evening."

Lin Zhi's appetite was also aroused, but when she thought about eating the most delicious and flavorful braised pork, she felt that she could still hold back.

When Daya heard that they couldn’t eat until the evening, her face immediately fell.

The fire has been put out, why do we have to wait until the evening?

Outside the hospital.

This time the fragrance is even more fragrant and overbearing than last time.

"What delicious food is this family making? It smells so good! It smells so good!"

The others had no time to pay attention to him; they were all sniffing the scent.

The group of people who came last time also came this time, and those who didn’t come last time also came this time following the smell.

"Boom boom boom!"

The woman, unable to bear the torture of the fragrance, pushed aside the men and knocked directly on the door of Lin Zhi's house.

The men were very proud and knew that the widow lived inside, so they didn't dare to knock on the door rashly. Now there were many people and it was these women who were knocking on the door again.

They immediately asked the group of women to come forward, and they followed behind, ready to go in later.

As long as no one or a group of men entered the widow's room, no gossip would spread.

Lin Zhi heard the knock on the door, but she didn't have time to open it. She was pulling noodles at the moment.

She loves to eat and cook. Her working hours are free and relaxing, giving her plenty of time to learn how to cook delicious food, thus she has developed her cooking skills.

Making noodles is one of the skills she learned.

My skills are not as good as those of professional chefs, but it is enough for making daily food.

"Daya, go see who's here."

"Oh."

Daya walked towards the gate reluctantly, looking back every few steps.

She hadn't seen the ramen scene yet, and was enjoying it so much that she didn't want to open the door.

The person outside kept knocking on the door, urging the person inside to come and open the door.

Daya was reluctant to leave, so she walked slowly. The kitchen was only a short distance away from the front door, so she soon arrived at the front door.

When she opened the door and saw more people than last time, Daya said that she had seen the world and was not surprised at all.

"Uncle, auntie, what can I do for you?" Daya didn't open the door completely, but just stuck her head out.

Because she was so focused on eating ramen, she forgot to ask who was outside the door and opened it.

"It's Daya, we're here to talk to your mother about something."

Among the group of women who came last time, the one who took the lead in knocking on the door reached out and touched Daya's head, then pushed the door open and walked straight towards the kitchen.

With her taking the lead, the people behind her followed her and touched Daya's head and followed behind her.

Daya felt that her hair was about to be pulled bald by this group of people.

"Mrs. Lin, are you opening the stall today? It smells so good!"

The leading woman started asking in a familiar manner before even entering the kitchen.

"Ah, it's Madam Liu...and Madam Li...Oh, you are all here, come and sit down, come and sit down." Lin Zhi didn't stop talking and turned around to greet them.

Seeing that Lin Zhi was still busy, the group of people felt embarrassed to crowd in the kitchen, so they walked to the yard as if they were familiar with the place, found chairs to sit on and wait for Lin Zhi to come out.

After about a quarter of an hour, Lin Zhi came out after washing his hands.

"I'm also going to let the maid at home tell you that we plan to have a trial run tomorrow and invite you to come and show your support."

"tomorrow?"

"It's better to do it today rather than tomorrow, Madam Lin."

"That's right, that's right. While we're all here, why don't we start business now?"

......

Everyone was trying to persuade him, and Lin Zhi hesitated:

"But there are still many ingredients I haven't prepared yet, now..."

"Then let's sell the ones that are ready first. That's it."

So, Lin Zhi's stall suddenly started business.

Lin Zhi had some noodles, braised large intestines and braised eggs, as well as soup and vegetables. She decided that the first snack would be the pig intestine noodles.

A pound of noodles, a spoonful of soup, two vegetables and a braised egg.

Lin Zhi’s price was 10 wen per bowl, but because it was a trial run, Lin Zhi offered a 20% discount, charging only 8 wen per bowl.

When the price came out, everyone gasped.

Several people began to back down internally.

You have to know that a bowl of salted pork wontons outside only costs two cents, and they even have meat in them.

Lin Zhi actually dared to charge them ten cents for a bowl of pig intestine noodles. Although it only costs eight cents after a discount, it is still expensive!

Ten coins, one coin for noodles, one coin for eggs, two worthless vegetables, and a few pieces of offal intestines are worth one coin, so all together it can only be worth three coins at most.

Eight cents.

With eight cents they can buy eight eggs or half a pound of lean meat.

Lin Zhi, that was blatant robbery!

But.......

Those who come here because of the aroma are relatively food-loving people.

Moreover, they were the ones who instigated the opening of the business early, and then they left because of the high prices. Their reputation would not allow them to do this.

So, the whole group of people stayed together and ordered a bowl of pig intestine noodles.

There were nearly twenty people, one bowl each, so it was quite a workload.

The noodles Lin Zhi just made were just enough for the few people in the family to eat, and were not enough to sell.

"You guys have to wait a moment, I'm going to make some noodles."

Everyone said that they were not in a hurry, but in fact they were starting to back down again.

The noodles haven't started cooking yet, so why not find an excuse to leave?

Some people think so.

However, this group of people who are usually very stingy, faced with the sky-high prices of noodles today, no one actually asked to leave.

Since no one is leaving, it would be awkward for them to be the first to step out!

This wait lasted another three quarters of an hour.

It takes a while, but there's nothing I can do.

In the past, Lin Zhi only made food for himself, so he was not very skilled. In addition, even though the stewed food was cooked, it still took time to soak it in flavor.

So Lin Zhi, who originally felt a sense of urgency, stopped being anxious and went at his own pace.

She threw the pulled noodles and vegetables into the broth to cook. While the noodles were cooking, she scooped out the pig intestines and cut them into sections.

Also cut some green onions as garnish.

When the noodles are cooked, scoop them out and put them in a bowl. Then put the vegetables on the noodles, add pork intestines and braised eggs, scoop a spoonful of broth, and finally add the soul marinade and sprinkle with chopped green onions.
