Yong'an Blacksmith Shop and Chengxi Liuli Shop are both very efficient.
It didn’t take long for the first samples to be made.
But it was immediately rejected by Gu Beichuan because it was really difficult to meet the requirements.
There is nothing we can do about this, as craftsmen are not taken seriously in Daqian.
As a result, the quality of many processes is relatively low.
Fortunately, Gu Beichuan was generous and the price he gave was several percent higher than the market price.
So they are willing to take the trouble.
In this way, it was changed more than a dozen times before it was finally finalized and mass production started.
By this time, Fu Bo had also returned.
Not only did they bring back a large amount of sugar cane, chickens and poultry, they even brought back many young people from the countryside.
This is not surprising, after all, Feihong’s wages and benefits are there.
Working in Feihong is much better than digging in the fields.
So when Uncle Fu said that he wanted to recruit people to work, people in the village, ranging from the octogenarians to the children of fourteen or fifteen years old, were all vying to come.
In the end, even if Uncle Fu only wanted the young and strong among them, there would still be a lot of them.
The last step is the purchase of salt.
Originally, it was not allowed to purchase so much at once, but it was not until Gu Beichuan produced the deed of Feihong Restaurant that the government agreed.
It can be seen that the Daqian Dynasty still had very strict control over salt and iron.
After everything was gathered, Gu Beichuan became completely busy.
Although he has already written down the [Sucrose Production Method], [Chicken Refined Production Method] and [Refined Salt Production Method].
But to his surprise, most of the masters were illiterate!
And even if you are literate, you can't understand the meaning.
In desperation, Gu Beichuan could only demonstrate it himself.
The method of making refined salt is actually the simplest, which is to mash the purchased sea salt, dissolve it in water, and then filter and distill it.
The method of making chicken stock is not difficult, just remove the bones from the chicken, shred the chicken, add mushrooms, hammer and press, and finally grind it into powder.
The most difficult part is the cane sugar. You have to squeeze out the sugar cane juice first, then add limestone to precipitate the turbidity, and then filter it several times to get relatively clear sugar cane juice.
Finally, the sugarcane juice is used in a series of steps of distillation and filtration to obtain sucrose.
But whether it is table salt, chicken essence or cane sugar, they are only rough versions.
First of all, Gu Beichuan couldn't remember the complete method of making it, he could only remember a rough outline.
Furthermore, the equipment is not professional enough, and many modern equipment are not available, but even so, it is enough.
…
Huainan City Center.
Tenglong Restaurant.
Zhao Tenglong looked at the crowded and bustling Feihong Restaurant across the street, and then at his own deserted and deserted Tenglong Restaurant, and for a moment he couldn't help but feel desolate.
Perhaps, in less than half a month, Tamron will have to close its doors.
Zhao Tenglong has been tall and strong since he was a child. He likes to make friends with people from all walks of life and fight bravely with others. Therefore, a head-on encounter can often give people an unspeakable ferocity.
But now, he was just slumped on the bench, his face pale, as if he had just recovered from a serious illness, and there was no trace of evil spirit left.
Bang bang bang!
At this moment, someone knocked on the door of Tenglong Restaurant.
Zhao Tenglong's eyes narrowed, he sat up and cheered up a little.
But after seeing clearly who was coming, he lay back lifelessly.
"What? Dong Zhao's family doesn't want to see me so much?"
The speaker was a thin old man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks, and shrewd eyes.
Zhao Tenglong recognized him, the owner of Liuji Restaurant in the east of the city, and he was an enemy of the same trade.
If they met on a regular basis, he would still pretend to be a bit cool and exchange pleasantries with him.
But now that he was like this, he naturally lost interest. It was a good thing that he didn't say anything to drive him away.
"Dong Zhao's family has suffered a big change, and they have lost their morale. Naturally, they don't want to talk to me." Another voice came, this time from the owner of Zhouji Restaurant in the north of the city.
Immediately afterwards, figures appeared one after another.
Small-scale restaurant owners from all over Huainan, at this moment, actually gathered in Tenglong Restaurant!
It was only then that Zhao Tenglong's eyes filled with surprise and he said:
"What kind of wind is blowing today that has brought you all here to me?"
"Dr. Zhao, we are old acquaintances, so let's get straight to the point."
"Since the appearance of Feihong Restaurant and four famous wines, our business has been getting worse day by day!"
"In the past, I could earn hundreds of taels of silver a month, but now, I can earn less than half of it!"
"If Feihong Restaurant is allowed to continue, we may all have to close down."
Hearing this, Zhao Tenglong was surprised.
He knew that Feihong Restaurant was very popular, but he didn't expect it to become this popular.
It has actually threatened the entire Huainan restaurant.
"When it comes to restaurants now, everyone thinks of Feihong. How can anyone still remember me?"
"So, we must find a way to rub Feihong's spirit." Liu Dongjia, on behalf of everyone, finally expressed his intention to come.
But Zhao Tenglong shook his head and said:
"You are thinking too simply. Feihong's dishes are good and he has four famous wines. How can we compete with him?"
"Just because we can't compete doesn't mean others can't compete either."
After hearing this, Zhao Tenglong finally realized that something was wrong.
These people are not here to discuss ideas with me. But he came to me after he already had an idea!
"Tell me what solution you have come up with!"
Zhao Tenglong suddenly stood up from the recliner, with a flash of light in his eyes.
In the past few days, he has been thinking about how to defeat Feihong and regain his customer base.
It can be said that among everyone present, no one has a greater hatred than him and Feihong.
If Feihong hadn't become an unstoppable force, he would still be disgusted with Gu Beichuan even if he went to Tenglong Restaurant.
If he hadn't suddenly appeared, Huai Cai would have sold the restaurant to me!
This is all the property of our Zhao family!
Why sell it to an outsider?
If it were given to me, Tenglong would still be the bustling one among the bustling crowds!
By then, Tenglong may replace Feihong and become the largest restaurant in Huainan!
But now, there is nothing!
How can you not hate him?
"Does the Zhao family know about the imperial chef Sun Huaimin?" Seeing Zhao Tenglong's reaction, everyone knew that the matter was probably settled.
"Imperial Chef Sun Huaimin!"
Zhao Tenglong was shocked. This was the royal chef of the Daqian Palace, cooking for the royal family and nobles!
Moreover, Sun Huaimin was also a leader among the royal chefs, and he could cook all kinds of dishes at his fingertips.
If such a person were begging for bones, restaurants all over the world would be fighting to snatch them.
After all, Yuchu’s signature is too big!
Just when Zhao Tenglong was still immersed in Sun Huaimin's reputation, Liu Dongjia's next words almost made him jump in shock.
"Imperial Chef Sun Huaimin is coming to Huainan!"
