There are many unique delicacies in Dahe Village.
Two hundred acres of lotus pond produces hundreds of thousands of catties of bamboo shoots every year. A small part is reserved for the river banquet, and the rest is made into lotus root powder. Other businessmen have no chance to participate in this business.
Chili peppers, a fresh product that has just emerged, are currently only grown in Dahe Village and a few nearby villages. However, only Suigong people have the secret recipes for various sauces made from chili peppers. Although they have been introduced to the market, the quantities are too small. , there are not enough businessmen in Ping'an County, let alone businessmen from outside.
There are also preserved eggs, which are all produced by an old woman and a few children. The output is very low, and merchants cannot sell them wholesale in large quantities elsewhere.
Another example is ice powder. This thing is actually very popular. Even if you only do summer business, you can make a lot of money, but they can't get the secret recipe and can only watch.
In addition, the tomatoes and potatoes she cultivated using the name of Laji Country are already mature and are unique in this era. They will definitely cause a huge sensation in the market.
Not to mention crayfish...
During this time, Cheng Wanwan has been busy in meetings, and she must take care of every detail.
While she was busy, the entire Dahe Town was also busy.
The victims from Nanyang are digging canals in full swing every day. The newly settled craftsmen cooperate with Ping'an County to build various tools for the canal. Villagers with land in Dahe Town have to harvest cotton if they want to harvest rice. People doing business in the market are doing more and more business. Things are getting better and better, and the businessmen who have just obtained the operating rights are busy decorating their shops in preparation for opening...
Zhao Tiezhu and the village management staff released the news about the food festival.
This food festival is divided into two phases. The first phase is at the end of the month, July 28th, and the second phase is on the eighth day of August. The first phase is to build momentum for the second phase.
This time, instead of putting up notices, we distributed leaflets.
"The investment conference has just ended, why is there another food festival?"
"Did you see it? It says that everyone can taste the newly launched food once for free. There are more than 20 new delicacies."
"The first thing to say is that you need to pay an entrance fee, which is twenty cents per person."
"I said you are a native of Dahe Town after all. You only have twenty pennies, so you are worthy of your attention."
"That's it. If you pay twenty cents, you can eat the delicacies prepared by the people of Suigong for free. This is a business that will make a profit without losing any money."
"I quickly tell everyone the good news!"
"..."
There was a large flow of people in Dahe Town, and these people spread the news about the food festival. In just three or four days, it spread throughout Yun Province.
July 28th is getting closer and closer, and Cheng Wanwan is getting busier and busier.
The location of the food festival is set around the big locust tree in Dahe Town, allowing craftsmen to temporarily build many stalls. Anyone from Dahe Town can become the host of this food festival, and can use the stalls to promote their own delicacies and attract businessmen to buy them. A secret recipe for gourmet food, or a long-term cooperation with a certain businessman. Whether this business can be successful depends on your own skills.
No matter how many delicacies there are in this food festival, it is mainly to create momentum for crayfish.
The night before, Cheng Wanwan's family invited hundreds of people to clean the crayfish in preparation for the food festival the next day.
Before dawn, the kitchen in her house started to move. A large pot of lobsters was poured into the pot and cooked pot by pot. First, they made the delicious braised shrimp. This thing can be cooled after it is cooked. After eating, I made hundreds of kilograms of braised shrimp, and then started making spicy crayfish and braised prawns...
By this time, it was already getting light.
Businessmen and people from all over the world who had been waiting for a long time came to hear the news.
Zhao Tiezhu and Xu Kun stood at the entrance of the town to greet the guests: "On the left, hand over the twenty-liter head fee to receive the admission ticket. With the admission ticket, queue up on the right to enter. After entering, go straight and then turn right to reach the food festival venue. , everyone, don’t be crowded, take your time..."
The copper plate clattered into the box, and Zhao Tiezhu smiled happily.
He really didn't expect that so many people would come spontaneously after the gimmick of a food festival was released.
These twenty coins are nothing, the focus is on the flow of people. As long as these people enter Dahe Town, they must eat. If they can’t get enough from the free food, they will naturally spend money to buy other food. They also need to rest when they are tired from walking. I went to sit in the teahouse for a while. Some people played too late and didn't want to go back. Isn't the business of the inn coming again...
He increasingly believes in Aunt Zhao's words, that is, the flow of people is money. As long as there are people, there is no need to worry about making money.
Everyone lined up and entered Dahe Town in an orderly manner. The first thing they felt after entering was the fragrance. The fragrance was so strong that it made everyone salivate.
They couldn't wait to walk to the square of the food festival.
Here, there have long been filled with various stalls.
The stalls of Donghua and Qiuhua had lotus drinks and other drinks based on recipes. Naturally, the two girls would not give them away for free. If Cheng Wanwan had not given an order not to rip off customers, they would have The price will be raised, and now we can only sell it at the original price.
Mrs. Zhu took out two hundred preserved eggs and cut one egg into six parts, a total of one thousand two hundred parts. You can taste one part for free with your admission ticket.
Cheng Yuanyuan and her two daughters, Da Ya and Er Ya, guarded the ice noodle stall and stayed up late last night to make a lot of it. In order to support Cheng Wanwan's food festival, their ice noodle was given away for free.
In addition to selling food, some villagers also set up stalls on the roadside, selling whatever they have at home.
The biggest highlight is Cheng Wanwan’s stall.
She has prepared a total of more than 20 kinds of delicacies. There are more than 20 stalls in this area, all of which are owned by her family, and all of them are free to taste.
The first thing to come out is the delicious braised shrimp, which is placed in an oversized basin. It is extremely bright in color and exudes a strong fragrance. Although they look weird, they still make people want to take a bite.
Zhao Ergou is in charge of this stall. He said loudly: "One admission ticket can taste one braised shrimp for free. The quantity is limited, first come first served... Hey, don't crowd, the kitchen is still cooking, there are many more many!"
The first person in line hurriedly took out the ticket, and Zhao Ergou wrote the word "stewed" on it, and then asked someone to pick up a stewed shrimp and pass it over... As for the tableware, of course there was no one, because he didn't prepare it at all. Don't come.
The man didn't care. He caught the braised shrimp with his hand and walked to the side to study it.
After looking at it for a long time, I don’t know where to start.
Several familiar people gathered around to study.
"It is said that this thing is called crayfish, and it was cultivated by the Suigong people by the emperor."
"It looks a bit scary, but it tastes so good. Is this really edible?"
"Even the emperor has not tasted something, but we are the first to taste it. We are so lucky. Let me try it and see what it tastes like."
A man tore the crayfish in half, took a look at it, and then stuffed the shrimp tail into his mouth. When the taste bloomed on the tip of his tongue, his pupils instantly enlarged.
People on the side asked eagerly: "How is it? How does it taste?"
Where did he have the energy to answer these questions? He swallowed the shrimp tail in three mouthfuls, then broke off the pliers and sucked out the soft meat inside, then peeled off the shell of the shrimp head, stretched out his tongue to lick the taste inside, and waited until one shrimp was finished. , he was still not satisfied and couldn't help but licked his fingers.
After licking his fingers clean, he really couldn't lick them anymore. Only then did he notice that there were many people around him waiting for his answer.
He coughed and said: "The meat of this thing is too old and not delicious at all. Don't eat it to occupy your stomach. I will help you get rid of it."
