Chapter 144 Making Sausages Again
In fact, the main ingredient of potatoes and sweet potatoes is starch. At that time, a special room can be built to make starch. There is no need to boil it in an iron pot, just filter it, and add a few more stone mills.
The Lin family has no problem making tofu, so they can add some other foods to enrich the family's food choices and spread the reputation of the Lin family's food.One more thing, the salted eggs made by the Li family were successful, and Li Mao sent a jar to the Lin family for Lin Xiazhi to taste.
Li's eggs are big and delicious. The salted eggs are not smaller than the salted duck eggs. After they are cooked, yellow orange oil will appear when you dip them down with a chopstick, which makes people's index fingers move.
The Lin family had boiled salted eggs for breakfast that day, one for each person, and the white porridge was so delicious that they couldn't stop eating.
Li Mao came back the next day, and Lin Xiazhi discussed the price of salted eggs with him.
Ordinary eggs cost two cents, while salted eggs cost four cents.
The first batch of salted eggs is only more than 100, and the quantity is not too large to sell in large quantities. Lin Xiazhi suggested that Li Mao send it directly to Jufulou, so he should ask them to help advertise: Li's family will launch a large number of salted eggs in the next year, so book as soon as possible , a deposit of two coins, and each household can book a hundred coins.
Ordinary eggs cost two coins. Li’s eggs are expensive, and the price of salted eggs is not cheap. Ordinary restaurants feel that the price is inappropriate. Although they think salted eggs are delicious, they don’t buy them.
In addition to salted eggs, the dishes made by Jufulou's other ingredients in Lin's and Li's houses are also better than others. The price of the same dish is divided into two types. The staff will explain this difference when introducing it to the guests. Guests Whether you like it or not is up to them.
As long as the guests who have eaten the ingredients of the Lin family and the Li family are willing to spend a little more money to eat more delicious food, it is just that the Lin family and the Li family only supply to Jufulou, and other people can't buy their things with money. This time, the Li family's salted eggs can be sold outside. After tasting the taste of salted eggs, those wealthy businessmen arranged for their servants to go to Jufulou to leave a deposit for reservations.
"Xia Geer's idea is really good. Now we have received a deposit of tens of thousands of eggs. Our eggs will no longer have to worry about sales. Next month, preserved eggs will also be released. This way, our chicken coop will raise more chickens." It's gone." Li Mao went back with a deposit of more than 80 taels, smiling with joy on his face.
"How can we take care of so many chickens?" Qian Ying was a little worried. Now that they have raised more than [-] chickens, the three of them have to get up early and work late into the night just to cook chicken food.
"According to me, hire a few more men to clean the chicken coop, and buy two servants to come back and cook the chicken food." Li Mao lowered his voice, afraid that someone would hear, "Do the math, if we raise a thousand hens , a thousand eggs can be laid in one day, one egg costs four taels, that’s four taels, four taels a day and one month is 120 taels! It’s just eggs!”
120 taels, that's really... Qian Ying couldn't help taking a breath, he didn't dare to think about the eggs alone, and the broiler chicken.
"Actually, I still want to raise more pigs. The pigs I raise now seem to be ready to be killed. Jufulou bought our four pigs and said they cost fifty yuan a catty. It's a pity not to raise more pigs." " Li Mao smacked his lips, now that the Li family can raise the chickens well, it's good, but the pigs still can't devote their energy, if the second brother is a director, he won't be able to use the idea of making money.
"Pigs can be sold so expensive!" In the first half of the year, the Li family's pork Jufulou was charged at 45 renminbi per catty. He already thought it was very expensive, and he could sell more!
"The last time I went to Brother Xiu's place, I seem to have heard Xia Geer say that to make a new restaurant this winter, we need a lot of pork. We will raise the chickens in the first half of next year, and raise more pigs in the second half of the year. Unlike raising chickens, pigs need to be fed earthworms, but pigs are fed bean dregs, and then let the village children find pig grass for us, and just find a few villagers to cook the pig food." Li Mao was thinking.
"Okay, I'll listen to you!" Qian Ying's blood boiled when she heard Li Mao's words, and she was full of energy when she thought of making money.
The weather is not completely frozen yet, let's set up the chicken shed first.
Just do what they say, this time they plan to build another chicken shed that can raise [-] chickens. Li Mao approached the guys who built the chicken shed before, they were all experienced hands, and they built the chicken shed within a few days .
Qian Ying bought chickens, and these chickens were raised in the old house first, so that the chickens would not be afraid of frostbite.
After Li Mao set up the chicken coop, he went to the county town and bought two men in their twenties, and asked them to cook pig and chicken food. He also hired four young and strong men in the village. The team is dedicated to cleaning the chicken coop. They do two rounds of cleaning every day. They don’t need to stare at the chicken coop after cleaning. They can go back to do their own homework.
The chicken feces that come out of the cleaning are free for their family, and other families have to exchange them.
The life of the Li family is getting better and better, and more and more people are speaking bitterly about them behind their backs.
But no one said it in front of the Li family. They also expected the Li family to bring their own family to work together. Regardless of the wages, they would be happy with the free use of chicken feces. Only when there is enough fertilizer in the field can a lot of crops be produced. .
Lin Xiazhi heard about Li Mao's big moves, and appreciated him even more. He is a courageous man. As long as he raises the chickens and pigs well, he will not be afraid of losing money after he is famous.
"Ah, I plan to make more of the sausage and bacon I made last year. Do you think it will work?" Lin Xiazhi took the account book to Li Xiu.
The weather is getting colder, and the temperature is already ready to make sausage and bacon. Lin Xiazhi is going to discuss with Li Xiu about making it together.
Lin Xiazhi began to slowly train Li Xiu to be the husband of the house, letting him learn how to be a housekeeper. Now that he has accepted his fate, it is actually quite good to marry Cheng Wenliu.
It's just that he won't agree to get married until he can teach Li Xiu to stand up.
In fact, the time left for him is about one year. Li Xiu's transformation plan cannot be delayed any longer. Letting him make up his mind on family affairs can train him.
Li Xiu didn't make sausages and bacon last year, but he knew a little about how those sausages and bacon were made, but he didn't know Lin Xiazhi's plan. He asked, "Does Brother Xia want to make them and eat them at home?"
"I want to make sausages and sell them. This time, you are in charge of purchasing, pricing and selling the sausages. I will remind you if I see that you are doing something wrong." Lin Xiazhi told Li Xiu her plan.
"Me?" Li Xiu was surprised, "I can't do it, how do I know those things."
"Ah, you've always wanted to marry me off, who will take care of the family affairs after I get married?" Lin Xiazhi asked him.
"This—I—." Li Xiu hesitated, he didn't have the confidence to manage the family affairs well, and he was used to looking for Brother Xia for more than a year.
"If you don't learn, then I won't marry!" Lin Xiazhi turned and left after finishing his words, waiting for Li Xiu to figure it out.
The next day, Li Xiu puffed her stomach and took out a piece of paper to Lin Xiazhi.
The family has been in business for so long, and Li Xiu has heard and seen some business matters, but actually doing it is not as scary as he imagined.
"Ah, isn't your writing very good, organized and more careful than mine." Lin Xiazhi encouraged Li Xiu, and now he is just beginning to build his confidence.
"I was worried about making mistakes, so I wasted a lot of paper." Li Xiu breathed a sigh of relief.
"But I think the number is too small, at least three times more." Lin Xiazhi picked up a pen and changed all the numbers on the paper.
After hearing Lin Xiazhi's words, Li Xiu clicked her tongue: "Five hundred catties is not a lot."
After counting the quantity, Lin Xiazhi took out a clean piece of paper and copied it, and said while writing: "It doesn't have to be [-] catties at a time, but [-] catties at the beginning, and then [-] catties and [-] catties later." For the rest, we will launch sausage and bacon this year, and next year when my uncle’s pigs are ready, we will make more sausage and bacon.”
Lin Xiazhi's handwriting improved a lot after practicing for a period of time, at least the copy on paper is still readable, but it's hard to say how strong it is.
"Your little uncle said last time that he wants to add another seven hundred chickens, so he doesn't have the energy to raise pigs." Li Xiu clicked her tongue.
"Raising pigs can make money, why not?" Lin Xiazhi smiled, "You can't do it yourself, you can buy or hire people, there are many ways, the youngest and uncle are smart people, don't worry about them."
After the plan for the sausage and bacon was laid out, Li Xiu arranged for the family to purchase pork. It was not worthwhile to buy [-] cents a catty of meat from a pig butcher, so she went to sell the whole pig and came back to kill it.
The pigs raised in the farm are only about [-] catties. The servants of the Lin family bought a live pig from the family of the Lin family. They invited a butcher to slaughter it on the spot. Except for the large intestine, the pig was sold cheaply to the villagers on the spot. Half a pig's head As the butcher's wages, it was given to the butcher.The useless bones were removed and sent to each family. In the end, only the ribs with meat and pure meat were left. The ribs were used to marinate the ribs, the minced meat was used to make sausages, and the whole meat was used to make bacon.
Lin Xiazhi and Yang Yusheng were studying the marinade in the kitchen when they slaughtered pigs for the meat.
Relying on his intuition, Yang Yusheng adjusted the marinade that Lin Xiazhi prepared last year.
Lin Xiazhi didn't know where the difference was, but smelling Yang Yusheng's tune made her feel even more fragrant: "Brother, I really think it's a pity for you to marry my elder brother."
After Yang Yusheng understood what he meant, he couldn't laugh or cry: "It's not as exaggerated as you said."
The pork was washed and cut and brought into the kitchen. Yang Yusheng leaned over to look at it. Before he could get close, a raw meat smell hit his face, his stomach convulsed, and Yang Yusheng ran out covering his mouth.
"Brother, what's the matter with you?" Seeing this, Lin Xiazhi quickly ran out, "Xiaoqiu, go invite Hu Langzhong."
"Ugh—" Yang Yusheng retched while leaning on the wall outside the house, his face turned pale.
Lin Xiazhi stepped forward and gently patted him on the back. Seeing that Yang Yusheng was no longer retching, he asked him, "Is it better? Is there any discomfort?"
Yang Yusheng shook his head: "It's okay, the smell of pork just now was a bit disgusting."
Smelling raw meat disgusting?Lin Xiazhi boldly guessed whether Yang Yusheng was pregnant, but Hu Langzhong hadn't come yet, he didn't say anything, if it was just stomach upset, everyone would be happy for nothing.
