Chapter 983: Business

Mo Beihan said, “Then we won’t be driving. I’ll go and help you carry stuff.”

The three of them walked to the small alley at the back of the house.

It was indeed a small and narrow alley. The stalls on the two sides were mainly set up by farmers and small business owners who stayed nearby. They were selling some simple stuff.

Most of the stuff was vegetables and livestock. There were necessities like braided baskets and bamboo baskets.

There were a few shops along the alley. Though they were not large, all daily needs could be purchased from those shops.

Gu Qingyao brought Chen Qingqing to purchase a huge cooking stove, a large cooking pot, some pork ribs and three-yuan of meat.

People of this era commonly did not eat meat often. Pork was the most popular meat. Gu Qingyao requested lean meat when purchasing the pork, thus the price was cheaper.

Then she bought different types of condiments which were the key to the recipe. Lastly, she bought some fresh chilli and dry chilli.

They bought a lot of stuff, but the three of them managed to carry everything back.

When they returned to the yard, Gu Qingyao and Chen Qingqing entered the kitchen.

“Qing Qing, I’ll teach you how to make a simple dish, sliced pork noodles. It looks simple, but the soup base is more complicated. And the key ingredient is the chilli paste.

“You can set up a stall after you have learned the recipe. This business is not commonly seen in the market yet. Even if there is, most of them are not willing to put more condiments, and the taste is totally incomparable. Remember, the most important thing in cooking is making the food delicious.

“There will be people who’ll try to mimic what you’re selling. You can sell one serving for forty cents. Use a bigger bowl. Though the price is cheap, there will be profits when you sell in large quant.i.ties. Even if others try to sell sliced pork noodles, they won’t put in as much meat as we do. They also won’t spend so much effort in making the soup base. And most importantly, no one else can make this chilli paste.”

Chen Qingqing nodded and sighed in relief after hearing that.

She was right!

It was simple to mimic a normal bowl of sliced pork noodles. Then the business would get difficult in the future.

Gu Qingyao first used the pork ribs to cook soup broth. She added different types of condiments. Then, she washed the meat and boiled it as well,

“After you boiled the meat, cut them into slices. Put it into the bowl when you need it. Pour some hot water in, and it’s ready to eat.”

Chen Qingqing nodded and memorised every single step.

Cooking the meat also required different condiments to make the meat delicious.

It was easy to make and easy for Chen Qingqing to learn. However, it was easy for others to mimic. She must spend more effort in the details to make the most delicious dish.

The price Gu Qingyao set was not high. Even if others tried to reduce their price, they would not make much money. Customers would definitely choose more delicious food at similar prices.

After putting all ingredients in the pot, Gu Qingyao started teaching Chen Qingqing the secret recipe to the chilli paste.

Mo Beihan had nothing to do outside and came inside to watch over the fire. Chen Qingqing felt slightly embarra.s.sed. She knew Mo Beihan was not a mediocre person from his clothes. She had heard about the news when she was in her hometown. Mo Beihan was recognised by a renowned family in the capital. He found his father and grandparents and became the young master of the family.

Now he was here to watch over the fire for her…

Chen Qingqing’s lips twitched. Gu Qingyao did not notice what she was thinking and pulled her over to chop the chilli.

The two girls were busy preparing. Mo Beihan sat by the stove. Though there were two girls in front of her, his eyes were always fixed on one person.
