Chapter 309: Pricing

Qin Huai sent a message to Chen Gong to inform him of what to prepare tomorrow after watching the first video tutorial. As a result, after sending the message, he watched the video tutorial again and again, and stayed up late, waking up late.

When Qin Huai woke up the next day and saw the time, his first reaction was that it was fortunate that the flight was changed to the evening, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to catch the flight this morning.

Chen Gong found a parent-child kitchen very close to the hotel for Qin Huai. Qin Huai had been to the parent-child kitchen and knew it very well. The parent-child cooking activity at Chen Huihui's school was held in the parent-child kitchen, and Qin Huai's first side quest was also completed in the parent-child kitchen.

Chen Gong booked the venue for Qin Huai very generously. Of course, it is also possible that the generous one is Han Guishan, Han Zong. Because when Qin Huai steamed the mung beans and ground them into mud, Han Guishan and Wang Jing arrived.

According to Han Guishan, he and Wang Jing happened to be handling some work nearby, and just happened to think that Qin Huai was going to make mung bean cake here today, so he came to see it by the way.

Regarding this, Qin Huai very sensibly smiled slightly to indicate understanding. Han Zong is really busy with work, and he didn't forget where he was making mung bean cake in his spare time.

Han Guishan and Wang Jing each moved a small chair and sat away from the kitchen table, waiting to eat obediently.

Qin Huai had to sigh that this couple really knew how to pinch time.

The production process of mung bean cake is not difficult, and it can even be said to be very simple. Qin Huai's method of soaking peeled mung beans for 6 hours and then steaming them and grinding them into mud is already a very complex ancient mung bean cake. Ordinary people who want to make mung bean cake at home can just buy ready-made mung bean powder, and the complex and time-consuming steps in front can all be omitted.

After grinding the mung beans into mud, you need to stir-fry. Add an appropriate amount of butter to the pot to melt, and use butter to stir-fry the mung bean mud. From the perspective of ingredient matching, butter has its own milky fragrance, which is more suitable for making mung bean cake than traditional vegetable oil.

And from the perspective of the era,? Using butter to stir-fry mung bean cake is definitely a very novel method in that era.

Qin Huai is stir-frying the mung bean mud very seriously. When the melted butter has fully integrated into the mung bean mud and began to emit the clear fragrance belonging to mung bean cake, add sugar.

The fragrance in the kitchen is getting stronger and stronger. The clear fragrance of mung bean cake began to mix with the sweet fragrance, and Han Guishan couldn't help but want to smack his lips just by smelling this fragrance.

He and Wang Jing really happened to be on the side, thinking that Qin Huai was making mung bean cake here, so they came over to see.

Of course, it would be even better if they could eat two bites.

Han Guishan is actually not very interested in mung bean cake; his wife Wang Jing loves to eat mung bean cake. Wang Jing likes to eat mung bean cake that is not so sweet, and especially likes to put the mung bean cake bought from outside into the refrigerator for a few hours.

In Wang Jing's words, the cold mung bean cake tastes better, and the sandy feeling melting on the tip of the tongue has a feeling of eating ice cake.

Han Guishan doesn't understand.

He feels that the mung bean cakes Wang Jing bought back are all small pieces, and if you pinch them with two fingers and use a little force, you are afraid they will break. Besides having a mung bean taste and being relatively refreshing, there are no big characteristics. Honestly, the cold mung bean cake tastes a little better than ordinary mung bean cake, but only a little.

Not to mention that the mung bean cakes Wang Jing likes are not very sweet, and they don't feel like anything when eaten. Usually, it's not bad to eat one or two when you open the refrigerator door at home, but it's very bland and boring to eat as a serious dim sum.

But now Han Guishan understands a little.

It's really fragrant, this rich mung bean fragrance is really fragrant!

It smells delicious!

"Jingjing, is this mung bean cake particularly delicious just after being baked like an egg tart? So this mung bean cake cannot be put in the refrigerator to eat cold, it must be eaten hot," Han Guishan asked.

This question stumped Wang Jing.

Wang Jing was a waitress in a state-run hotel back then, mainly responsible for eating small stoves and not responsible for cooking. The state-run hotel where she worked didn't sell much dim sum, at most selling some buns and mantou. Wang Jing didn't know how mung bean cake was made.

Wang Jing was led astray by Han Guishan.

"So that's how it is," Wang Jing was enlightened, "It seems that mung bean cake cannot be put in the refrigerator in the future, it must be eaten just out of the pot."

The couple both understood, sat on the small bench and continued to wait to eat, staring at the mung bean mud still stir-frying in the pot with burning eyes.

Qin Huai, who was stir-frying the mung bean mud:...

Are this Han Zong couple... hungry?

That shouldn't be right. Didn't they prepare a lot of raw embryos of Four Joy Tangyuan, San Ding Bao, and fermented rice mantou yesterday? Could it be that they were too busy with work and didn't have time to eat breakfast?

It must be like this. Sure enough, those with "Zong" after their surname cannot be relaxed.

After the mung bean mud stir-frying is finished, it needs to be shaped with a mold, and then pressed and demolded.

Because butter was added during the stir-frying process, there is no need to brush extra oil on the mold, and it can be easily demolded.

There are ready-made molds in the parent-child kitchen, and Qin Huai went to get the molds.

Seeing that Qin Huai had taken the molds, Han Guishan couldn't sit still, hesitated for a moment and went forward directly: "Master Qin, can this mung bean cake be eaten hot now?"

Qin Huai:?

Eat mung bean cake hot?

Such niche words, such strange words.

Qin Huai was stunned for a moment, seeing that Han Guishan really wanted to eat, and thinking of Han Guishan's consistent eating style, he felt that Han Zong was not a person who would be constrained by the shape, so he nodded: "Theoretically, it can be, but mung bean cake is generally eaten after demolding."

"I suggest you put it in the refrigerator to chill for a period of time after demolding, the taste is better."

If you eat it directly, what you eat is not mung bean cake, but pure mung bean mud.

Han Guishan was stunned: "Isn't mung bean cake eaten hot?"

Qin Huai: "...... If you have this hobby, you can also eat it hot, but be careful of being scalded. The temperature of the mung bean mud just stir-fried is still quite high."

Seeing that Han Guishan was still stunned, Qin Huai simply found two small plates and served a small plate for Han Guishan and Wang Jing each. When serving, he specifically spread the mung bean mud out so that it wouldn't dissipate heat.

Han Guishan carried the two plates of mung bean mud back and ate with Wang Jing.

"Jingjing, Master Qin said that the mung bean mud just stir-fried is relatively hot, let us be careful when eating. And just now Master Qin said that mung bean cake should be iced..."

Wang Jing didn't pay attention to her husband at all, ate it on her own, and praised it repeatedly.

"Mmm, although it's a bit hot, this taste... this rich mung bean taste, this delicate and sandy feeling, this warm feeling in the mouth, this is the mung bean cake I want to eat that is not sweet but not bland, not bland but has a sweet taste, and the mung bean taste is very rich!"

Han Guishan silently swallowed the remaining words and wolfed it down.

Just one bite.

Han Guishan:!

Mung bean cake is actually so delicious!

I eat, I eat, I eat!

When Chen Gong came to the parent-child kitchen, what he saw was this scene.

His beloved Han Guishan, Han Zong, was burying his head and eating a plate of green mud-like unknown objects.

His respected Wang Jing, Wang Zong, was elegantly chewing a plate of green mud-like unknown objects.

Qin Huai, who helped him wake up and is currently his true best friend, was stir-frying the mung bean mud in the pot with a blank face, occasionally looking at Han Guishan and Wang Jing with eyes full of question marks.

Wait, stir-frying mung bean mud.

Han Zong and Wang Zong are not eating the mung bean mud that hasn't been shaped, right?

Why don't they eat the mung bean cake that has been shaped on the mold side?

Question marks also appeared in Chen Gong's heart, but he didn't show it on his face.

Seeing Chen Gong come, Han Guishan was very happy, moved a chair for Chen Gong and let him sit, telling him that the mung bean mud just stir-fried is particularly fragrant and must be tasted, and he and Wang Jing had already tasted several plates.

Chen Gong:...

Since waking up, Chen Gong's loyalty to Han Guishan has not decreased, but the filter is not so deep.

Chen Gong silently went to get a plate, and chatted with Qin Huai in a low voice.

"Han Zong, he is actually still very... in his daily life," Chen Gong still wanted to explain for his Han Zong.

"I just suspected that Han Zong might be a monster who loves to eat things very much," Qin Huai said with a blank face, "So I asked Han Zong a question."

"What?"

"I asked him if he had any other wishes."

"I know this is very abrupt, but I also know that Han Zong is a person of temperament. He doesn't really catch problems in other people's language in daily life, so I hesitated and asked."

"And then?" Chen Gong was curious. "Han Zong said he wanted another plate."

Chen Gong:...

Chen Gong thought for a while and could only continue to explain: "Han Zong is just like this... not sticking to small details. This personality of his is actually very good. Many business partners feel that Han Zong is straightforward, atmospheric, and doesn't play tricks, and are very willing to cooperate with him. And Han Zong's business ability is very strong, and there will be no problems in work, so Hao Weidao has been able to grow bigger and stronger for so many years."

Qin Huai sighed: "I know, and I also admit that Han Zong is a good person."

"I'm just a little disappointed that he is not a monster. If he were a monster, his quest would definitely be particularly easy to complete."

Chen Gong smiled: "I don't think you need to be bound by quests, Master Qin."

"Not all games have to be played to perfect clearance, and 12 illustrated books don't necessarily have to be collected. Everyone's life is their own choice, and every monster's failure is their own choice. You don't need to have a burden."

"Even if one day you really meet a monster like Mr. Luo who cannot be helped, and this monster's situation may be worse than Mr. Luo's, and he has reached the final end destined to fail, that is also his own choice and cannot blame you."

"Don't have too much psychological burden."

"I know," Qin Huai nodded, "Chen Huihong and Qu Jing also mentioned this to me."

As he spoke, a pot of hot mung bean mud was out of the pot.

Qin Huai directly took the plate from Chen Gong's hand and served him a plate: "It's very hot now, eat it later."

"Although I don't understand why Han Zong and Wang Zong both want to eat the mung bean mud just stir-fried out of the pot."

"It's really not bad."

"However, for the rest that have been shaped into mung bean cake, I suggest putting them in the refrigerator to chill, the taste is better."

"By the way, where did you get this batch of mung beans? The quality is really good. Can you get me some and send them to Shan City?"

Chen Gong smiled slightly: "Of course, if you need it, Master Qin, I will help you contact and provide it in large quantities."

"Peeled mung beans, ensuring that every mung bean is peeled clean."

Qin Huai made B-grade mung bean cake in the parent-child kitchen for an afternoon, and cut radishes for half an hour by the way. Because the ingredients Chen Gong prepared were really, really many, the mung beans were not finished until Qin Huai left the kitchen.

However, it will not be wasted. According to Chen Gong, the remaining mung beans will become mung bean soup in the company canteen tomorrow noon.

By the way, the mung bean cakes Qin Huai made this afternoon only show the grade after demolding and becoming serious mung bean cakes. The mung bean mud just stir-fried does not show the grade.

Obviously, the game system does not admit that the stir-fried mung bean mud is mung bean cake.

However, the impact is not big. Qin Huai doesn't have the ability to make A-grade mung bean cake. He made B-grade all afternoon, not even B+ grade, no buff, whether eating mung bean cake or mung bean mud is the same.

Han Guishan and Wang Jing are not short of that confidence.

Because the flight was changed to the evening, it was already after 0 o'clock when Qin Huai landed in Shan City.

Assistant Xiao Qin, who went on a business trip for two days, returned like lightning again.

The person who picked up the plane was still Xiao Qin's good brother Ouyang.

It's just that this time Ouyang started late and was still on the road. Qin Huai needed to carry his luggage and wait for Ouyang at the airport.

Idle is idle, Qin Huai simply checked the main quest.

The completion progress of the main quest is very gratifying.

The quest requires 5 daily praise rates not lower than 98%, and at least 1000 guests think this is the most delicious dish they have ever eaten. Currently, Qin Huai has completed four.

Chen Pi Tea, Fermented Rice Mantou, Premium San Ding Bao, and Four Joy Tangyuan.

Originally, Qin Huai intended to choose one from longevity noodles and apple face fruit to complete the quest.

Now he intends to change to a new one.

Change to mung bean cake.

From the production process of mung bean cake this afternoon, Qin Huai found that although he felt that his process of making mung bean cake had not changed, and he had not learned any small tricks, advanced experience, and outstanding skills from the question mark video teaching, the mung bean cake he made was indeed more delicious.

To be precise, it is more delicious.

Mung bean cake is a very common, very ordinary, and very cheap dim sum. Its cost, production difficulty, and output volume determined that its price could not be high.

It's not that Qin Huai is bragging. Although the recipe says 666 portions a day, each portion is no more than half a jin, and 333 jin a day sounds like a lot. But really doing it, Qin Huai making 333 jin of mung bean cake a day is definitely done easily.

Because mung bean cake is really simple, and it really sells well.

It is more suitable for completing this quest than longevity noodles and apple face fruit, because it is more popular and cheaper.

If each portion of mung bean cake is 100 grams and the price is 50 yuan, no matter how exquisite and beautiful it is, and no matter if it is B-grade mung bean cake, it is just delicious.

If each portion sells for 30, it is delicious.

20 is God.

15 is God among Gods.

Slightly cutting corners, changing 100 grams to 80 grams or 60 grams is the same.

Qin Huai is not prepared to sell mung bean cake very expensively, just price it at 15~20 per 80 grams.

Cloud Canteen already has dim sum with very high profits. Qin Huai doesn't need to price the mung bean cake, which could have been very cheap, into expensive dim sum. Even if this mung bean cake is B-grade, even if he can kill 99.9% of mung bean cakes on the market without suspense.

In Qin Luo's childhood, mung bean cake was a delicious and affordable dim sum that could be bought at the school gate at any time by taking out two yuan from her pocket.

Two pieces of mung bean cake could make Qin Luo, who had been in school for a day, have a good mood, jumping and walking home to do homework.

Qin Huai feels that Cloud Canteen can also use two pieces of mung bean cake to make office workers who have worked for a day have a good mood, humming songs and walking to the subway to go home and play with their mobile phones.

Thinking so, Ouyang arrived.

"Qin Huai, Qin Huai! Here, what are you thinking about?" Ouyang waved at Qin Huai frantically.

"Thinking about the pricing of dim sum," Qin Huai said.

"You learned new dim sum again?" Ouyang was shocked, "Didn't you go on a business trip to make a birthday banquet for others? Where did you get the time to learn new dim sum?!"

"Old dim sum, mung bean cake."

"Intend to put it on the regular menu tomorrow, come over to eat when you are free. How is your lemon tea business recently?"

"Need to ask? It's simply full of guests. Did you see the muscle lines on brother's arm? They are all exchanged for drinks! No need to go to the gym."

"... you can exchange drinks for muscle lines?"

"Okay, I did secretly go to the gym to exercise."

"No way, the drinks are too delicious. I couldn't help but drink two sips while exchanging. I gained 6 jin in a week."

Qin Huai:...

No, brother, you also secretly drink when you open a milk tea shop?

Worthy of being you.
