The first step in the book is to start selling tofu

"Boss, I bought all the spices for you, please see..."

The shopkeeper didn't even look at Xiao Fuzi, and directly asked him to take the spices to the kitchen. As for reimbursement, he just had to follow the procedure and ask the accountant.

In the kitchen.

The chef sniffed the spices again and again, and put some in his mouth to taste them carefully.

He frowned from time to time, and occasionally smiled as if he had suddenly realized something.

"How is it? Is there any progress?" The shopkeeper came in and interrupted the chef's actions.

The chef frowned and replied, "The spices should be fine, but getting the right recipe is difficult!"

His tongue was very sensitive and after trying them he knew that most of these herbs matched well with braised dishes.

There are still a few parts that I am not sure about.

After all, medicinal herbs have one taste when taken alone, and another taste when mixed together; so it's not surprising that the taste changes after being boiled.

"That's all fine. If there's any difficulty, we'll spend some time to solve it. Money is not a problem." The shopkeeper said to the chef in a nice voice.

As a chef in a restaurant, his status is sometimes higher than that of the manager.

After all, the target of service is the customer's stomach, and a good chef is crucial if you want to retain customers.

"I know. It's okay. I'll get busy first." The chef was impatient and made an excuse to slip away.

Mastering someone else's secret recipe is challenging for a serious cook.

But he would feel disgusted if he used the formula he conquered to make money.

But what can you do about the nausea?

No matter how high his position was, to put it bluntly, he was just an employee of Fu Man Lou. Everything was still based on the boss's orders.

It was the shopkeeper who conveyed the order, but without the boss's approval, the shopkeeper would not dare to ask him to do anything.

......

Lin Zhi had no idea what happened in Fumanlou.

It's understandable that some people want to master her braised food recipes.

If you pay close attention, you can estimate your daily income.

With such a lucrative business, few people would not be tempted.

But what does it have to do with her?

She would not tell the recipe, even Daya was not very clear about the ingredients. She always prepared it for Daya.

As long as a pot of brine is well preserved, it will become more fragrant as it is cooked, and there is no need to add ingredients every day.

But it would be difficult for outsiders to crack her formula!

Lin Zhi returned home and made another pot of brine using the purchased ingredients and some other ingredients at home.

This pot of marinade is specially used for making braised food at Fumanlou, and a large pot is used to hold it.

After she finished making the brine, Li Chong and his wife also came back.

As soon as they came back, the two of them got down to work without Lin Zhi urging them.

Lin Zhi was used to seeing colleagues slacking off at work, so this was the first time he saw someone working so diligently, and he always felt a little weird.

"Da Ya, come here."

Seeing that Daya was about to come forward and snatch the job from Li Chong and the others, Lin Zhi immediately stopped her.

She was hiring people to share the work, but this kid was eager to do it.

Daya was an obedient child. Although she still wanted to go to work, she walked honestly to Lin Zhi's side.

"Mom, what are you going to do?"

"Those jobs are the work of Uncle Li and his men. You took their jobs away. What are they going to do?"

Daya tangled her hands together in confusion.

She felt that she had no face to stay in this family if she didn't do anything.

"Now that we have Uncle Li and others to help us, we have a rare bit of free time, which is a perfect time to make new clothes." Lin Zhi pointed to the seat next to her and asked Daya to sit down.

"But..." Daya moved to her seat and looked at Lin Zhi anxiously: "Mom, I... I don't know how to sew."

Daya lowered her head and didn't dare to look at Lin Zhi.

Girls of her age in the village had already started learning needlework.

Daya has never learned it.

When her mother was still alive, she had endless work to do every day and had no time to teach her. In addition, her mother was pregnant at that time and had no energy to teach her.

Later, her mother passed away, and the other people in the Yang family only asked her to take over the work that her mother had previously done. No one cared about her at all, let alone taught her.

When this mother came to her home, she was so inferior that she didn't even dare to talk to Lin Zhi. There was no relationship between them, and she didn't have the face to ask Lin Zhi to teach her.

At that time, Lin Zhi was busy taking care of her new father and had no extra time. Later, they separated and her new father died...

"It doesn't matter if you don't know how to do it. You can learn. I'll teach you now."

Lin Zhi said this in a very normal tone, and Daya immediately responded with a "good".

Lin Zhi picked up a piece of cloth, handed the needle and thread to Daya, and began to teach her the basic needlework. Daya studied seriously, and although she was a little clumsy at first, she gradually mastered the essentials.

After a while, Daya was able to lay the line in a proper manner.

"Good! Let's continue."

Lin Zhi praised.

She was able to do the job well in a short period of time because she still had the memories of her original body, but Daya was a true novice.

To be able to achieve what he has now in such a short time can only show that this child is very talented.

After receiving the praise, Daya became very motivated and she devoted herself more to the work in the following time.

Sun Laidie accidentally looked up and saw the mother and daughter sitting together sewing clothes. She was stunned for a long time.

"Please move the chair out first and call the boss and others later." Li Chong called his wife back to her senses.

"Brother Chong..."

"What's the matter?" Li Chong looked at her with concern.

Sun Lai Di opened her mouth and finally replied: "It's nothing...our family's life will get better and better."

"Yeah! It will get better and better."

Sun Lai Di smiled.

When they make money, she will buy cloth and teach her daughter how to make clothes.

Li Chong has difficulty walking, so Sun Lai Di has to do more of the moving and lifting work.

"Boss, it's almost time to open for business."

After all the tables and chairs were moved out, Sun Lai Di came to call Lin Zhi.

"Why didn't you ask us to help move the table?" Lin Zhi came back to his senses and found that Sun Laidi had moved all the tables and chairs out. He couldn't help but ask with a hint of blame.

The tables and chairs are all solid wood tables and chairs. How heavy would they be for one person to move them?

Although she was blamed, Sun Lai Di felt warm in her heart and said with a smile: "It's okay, I can move it."

Lin Zhi didn't say much about this matter, but he decided in his heart that there would not be a next time.

Exploiting employees was not something she wanted to do.

Daya took the needle, thread and cloth back and put them away, then came out and brought out the ingredients.

Lin Zhi was the last one to go out.

We are not selling grilled tofu today, but egg pancakes.

She has to prepare the batter before she can start selling it.

Outside the hospital.

As lively as ever.

The old customers haven't gotten tired of the braised food yet, and many new diners come here because of its reputation.

Old diners who already know the rules have already lined up in front of the stall, waiting to buy as soon as it opens.
