Gourmet Girl: Becoming a Royal Merchant Started from Selling Buns

Su Jiang has always been good at hands-on work. As he spoke, he dragged the basin to the well in the backyard.

A bucket of water was hung up and the pig intestines were washed.

For a moment, Su An was left aside and could only stand by and watch his brother wash the pig intestines.

After taking a look, Su An found that Su Jiang was quick and efficient in his work, so he didn't have to rush to do it.

He went back into the kitchen and took out a basin of flour. "Xiao Jiang, wait until the pig intestines are almost rinsed. Then apply flour evenly on the inside and outside of the intestines. Rub gently and wash several times. This way, the pig intestines will be cleaned more thoroughly."

Su Jiang nodded in agreement.

Su An took the little girl Su Yue into the kitchen.

After entering the kitchen, Su An cleaned some bones, boiled water in a pot, put in bones, green onions, ginger, and spices, and began to cook bone soup.

Then he went to prepare the ingredients for making dumplings, and asked the little girl to sit in front of the pot, adding some firewood from time to time.

In just half an hour, the side dishes, pig intestines and bone soup were all ready.

Su Ansheng prepared the bone broth, cleaned the pot, boiled water, added green onion and ginger, cut the large intestine into sections, blanched it, and when the large intestine changed color, took it out and prepared to start braising.

Put spices, onion, ginger, garlic, soy sauce and salt into the pot, add bone broth and start cooking. When the broth is warm, add the large intestine and start cooking over low heat.

But after cooking for about a quarter of an hour, the fragrance had filled the entire kitchen.

Then it rushed out of the kitchen and spread outside.

At some point, a crowd of people gathered outside Su's Shaobing Shop.

Someone knocked on the door: "Su family, what kind of food are you making? It smells so good, are you selling it?"

Su An naturally would not miss this opportunity to promote himself and quickly opened the shop door.

At this time, the door was surrounded by people.

Seeing the door open, everyone outside looked over with bright eyes, and while looking, they twitched their noses and sniffed the smell in the house.

"It smells good! It smells so good!"

"Xiao An, have you guys introduced new food? Are you planning to sell it today? How much is it?!"

"It smells like meat to me. What kind of meat? Your mother has never cooked this before!"

"The food we are going to launch is called steamed buns, and today we are going to make pig intestine buns." Su An smiled and said very frankly, "The aroma now is from the braised pig intestines. After the pig intestines are braised, they will be wrapped in bread and steamed. Don't worry, uncles and aunts, it will take another quarter of an hour to be ready."

"As for the price, it's not expensive. One sausage bun is five cents."

For the buns, Su An did not set a particularly high price, and planned to take the route of small profits but quick turnover.

However, this also means that if you want to earn ten taels of silver, you must sell in large quantities, and at least you need to sell more than two thousand buns.

In modern times, it would be normal for a breakfast shop to sell two thousand buns in the morning.

But it was ancient times, and her shop didn't have that many regular customers, and the buns were still a new product, so she was afraid that she wouldn't be able to sell that many at once.

However, Su An dared to set such a price, which meant that he had already thought of a good idea.

She decided to take advantage of her scumbag ex-fiancé who passed the imperial examination.

Didn't he want to be a traitor? Didn't he want to get rid of her trouble? Didn't he think that even if she was abandoned, she wouldn't dare to speak out because of the damage to her reputation?

Then she moved all the tables and chairs outside the shop, facing the gate of the county school, and sold buns under the name of "the abandoned fiancée of the newly-promoted scholar" to promote him!

That bastard killed the original owner alive. If she doesn't avenge the original owner, she doesn't deserve to use this body.

It just so happened that there were many people in the county school, exactly two thousand.

Most of those students were wealthy and loved to eat delicious food. They used to look down on their sesame cakes, but now...

She just couldn't believe that they could resist eating such a big melon.

Come and eat melons, how can they not be captivated by the pig intestine buns?!

While thinking in his heart, Su An also curled his lips and smiled: "Dear uncles and aunts, if you are not in a hurry, you can also sit in the teahouse next door and have some tea. Our steamed buns with pig intestines will be ready soon. The braised pig intestines are also delicious when they are eaten alone. When the time comes, I will ask Xiao Jiang to bring a plate of pig intestines for you uncles and aunts to taste."

As she spoke, she turned to look at the owner of the teahouse next door, "Uncle Lin, the strong smell of pig intestines doesn't affect it, right?"

"No impact, no impact! Everyone, feel free to come to my house for tea. Not to mention the pig intestines, you can also send the buns over when they are ready." Uncle Lin waved his hands quickly when he heard this, feeling surprised and happy.

His teahouse has always been sparsely populated, and he has sighed about this countless times.

Now the little girl is helping him attract customers by saying this.

He finally realized that this girl was just thanking him for speaking up for her earlier.

I didn't expect that this little girl Su An is so smart.

It’s really not simple!

Su An had no idea what Uncle Lin was thinking. After discussing it with Uncle Lin, she hurried into the kitchen to get busy.

At this time, the dough had already risen. Su An kneaded the dough and divided it into small pieces.

Su Jiang followed Su An and helped Su An roll out the bun wrappers.

Su An cut the soaked mushrooms into small pieces, added the chopped pig intestines, onions and seasonings, mixed them evenly, and the bun filling was ready.

After making the stuffing, she fished out a few pieces of pig intestines from the pot and cut a plate, "Xiao Jiang, Yue'er, come here."

Su Jiang responded, put down the bun wrapper in his hand, and came forward: "Sister, do you want me to send the pig intestines to Uncle Lin?"

Just as he was about to carry the pig intestines out, Su An stopped him and said with a smile: "This is a delicacy made by you and your sister. How can you not taste it?"

The two little kids' eyes lit up instantly, and they huddled around Su An, sniffing the aroma of the pig intestines like puppies.

"Eat quickly." Su An smiled and patted the two chubby little heads. "After you finish eating, I'll cut another plate of pig intestines and send it to Uncle Lin."

"Yeah." The two little rascals nodded in unison, looked at each other, and immediately picked up their chopsticks and put a bite into their mouths.

As soon as the pig intestines entered her mouth, the little girl Su Yue started screaming.

"Big sister, it's delicious! I didn't know pig intestines are so delicious." The little girl ate while not forgetting Su An. She picked up a piece of pig intestines and stuffed it into Su An's mouth, "Big sister! You eat too!"

Su An lowered her head and took a bite of the food brought by the little girl. When the little girl brought her chopsticks, she shook her head and asked her to eat it herself.

Su Jiang no longer had the look of disgust he had before, and he kept eating voraciously.

However, after eating a few bites, he suddenly stopped.

"What's wrong?" Su An asked.

Su Jiang pursed his lips and smiled, "I won't eat it anymore. Save it for my mother, my third brother and my younger sister. I'll go deliver the pig intestines."

This kid.

Su An was amused by him: "I made the food myself, how can I miss yours? Eat it."

But no matter how Su An persuaded him, he refused to eat. He just took a new plate of pig intestines and went to the teahouse next door.

As soon as he walked out of his shop, he started shouting, "The pig intestines are here! The delicious pig intestines are here! There's only one plate left to try, come and try it if you want!"

These shouts immediately attracted a group of new people.

He continued to shout, "Su's Pancake Shop will have pig intestine buns for sale later. If you want to eat them, remember to come and buy them!"
