MTL - Food: How Did I Become a Chef When I Set Up a Stall?

Chapter 17 A big deal has come!

 Jiangfeng’s stall is doing very well.

 The taste of braised pork is really fragrant.

His soup stock seems to have some magical ingredients added to it, and the fragrance spreads for ten miles.

 Every guest who comes here to eat braised pork is amazed.

 It is now a working day, so there are relatively few tourists in the resort, but there are more people during meal time.

Even so, around two o'clock in the afternoon, Jiang Feng sold two hundred kilograms of meat.

 The system task is successfully completed.

 The task was completed, Jiang Feng felt relaxed all over.

The blue panel displays information:

  【Sell braised pork: 201/200 jins, the day's task is completed. 】

 【Obtain additional reward: Black Iron Kitchen Knife*1】

 This time the reward is a kitchen knife.

Jiang Feng took out the kitchen knife when no one was around.

This kitchen knife is entirely silver in color, with patterns carved on the side. It looks extremely beautiful.

The kitchen knife has been sharpened, and the blade is extremely sharp. Even the ribs, which are difficult to chop, can be cut easily with this knife.

Jiang Feng held the Xuantie kitchen knife in his hand and shook it. The kitchen knife was not heavy and was light enough to do some knife work.

 “Good stuff, you’ll need it later.”

Jiang Feng was satisfied with this.

 He looked at the braised pork in the pot.

 Today he prepared a total of about 300 kilograms of braised pork, and now only one third is left.

 He planned to do business for a while, and if there were no more customers, he would drive back to rest.

By the way, make the soup stock for tomorrow, buy the ingredients, and prepare to come back tomorrow.

 At the same time, Shuize Resort Happy Ranch.

 Happy Ranch is the main tourist ranch here. The environment inside is very good. After entering, you can see the cattle and sheep pens with calves and lambs.

There is a grassland behind with free-range sika deer for tourists to feed.

There is also a tent camp in the ranch, where you can take photos and check in, and you can also eat special hot pot.

 It is an excellent place for holiday travel and rest.

Dashan, the owner of Happy Ranch, is forty-five years old. He was chatting with his friends just now and learned that there was a new guy selling braised pork in the snack street outside. The taste of braised pork is unparalleled.

Zhang Dashan loves meat very much, otherwise he would not start a ranch. When he heard about the delicious braised pork, he immediately became greedy.

 “Xiaoya! Xiaoya!”

 He called for his daughter.

Zhang Dashan’s daughter is called Zhang Xinya, she is twenty-two years old and has just graduated from college.

 Happy Ranch’s business is very good, Zhang Xinya doesn’t have to go out to work, she just helps out at the ranch.

 Zhang Dashan had a strict upbringing, and Zhang Xinya had never encountered any big troubles.

 “Dad, what’s wrong?”

 Zhang Xinya came out and asked.

“There is a braised pork seller coming to the snack street today.”

"Help me buy some braised pork, and I'll have some with Liu Gen'er tonight."

“Buy more, big knuckles, chicken feet, pig’s trotters, etc., buy them at four or five pounds.”

 Zhang Dashan opened his mouth and said.

Zhang Dashan wanted Zhang Xinya to move around and not just stay in the room every day.

 “Okay, I’ll go.”

Zhang Xinya nodded, then rode out of the ranch on her family's small electric car and rushed towards the small stall.

The ranch is not far from the snack street, just walk along the road after exiting the door.

 Zhang Xinya looked back and forth, looking for the stall selling braised pork.

 “There is no one selling braised pork here.”

 She thought to herself.

There are many vendors here, some of which have small shops, so it is not easy to find one selling braised pork.

But after riding in for a while, Zhang Xinya smelled a strange fragrance.

This aroma is like stewed meat. When you open the lid of the pot, the aroma of meat comes out. It requires good seasoning to achieve such a flavor.

 Her family runs a ranch and eats meat every day. Zhang Xinya has a certain ability to distinguish the taste of meat.

With such a fragrant taste, the texture of the meat is definitely not bad.

So, Zhang Xinya rode her bike, looking for the smell, all the way inward.

Not long after, she saw Jiang Feng’s dining car.

Jiang Feng was cleaning up outside the dining car at this time. He took off the hanging sign and prepared to clean up and go home.

 “Boss, wait a minute!”

 Zhang Xinya hurried over on an electric bicycle.

At this moment, Zhang Xinya had unwashed hair and no makeup. She was wearing loose casual clothes and a pair of cute rabbit-shaped slippers. Zhang Xinya has good looks. Today’s young girls pay great attention to appearance and have high self-esteem requirements. Most of them are not bad.

Jiang Feng turned around and looked at Zhang Xinya who was coming.

Zhang Xinya was a little annoyed when she saw that Jiang Feng was quite handsome, and felt that she should put on a little makeup.

 “Boss, I’ll buy some pig’s trotters and elbows.”

"You are the new one here today, right?"

Zhang Xinya looked at the sign in Jiang Feng's hand and asked.

Jiang Feng nodded, "Well, I just came to Shuize Resort today to set up a stall."

 “What do you want? There isn’t much braised pork left.”

 Zhang Xinya looked at the sign and said:

“Here are five pig trotters, five pounds of elbows, five pounds of chicken feet, five pounds of fat intestines, and five chicken legs.”

Hearing her words, Jiang Feng was slightly surprised.

 Big business!

I didn’t expect this pretty girl to be so unconventional and so generous with her actions!

Looking at it this way, the girl’s appearance has become a little better.

　　It looks good no matter how you look at it.

 “Okay, let me take a look.”

Jiang Feng returned to the dining car, opened the iron pot, and checked the condition of the braised pork.

“There are not enough pig trotters, there are four left.”

 “The sausages have been sold out.”

　　“There are enough elbows and quite a lot of chicken feet.”

 “Chicken legs are enough too.”

Hearing Jiang Feng’s words, Zhang Xinya immediately said:

“I’ll take whatever elbows you have left, and I’ll take eight pounds of chicken feet.”

“How many stewed vegetables are there? I want them too, as well as dried bean curd and bean curd.”

“Five chicken drumsticks are enough.”

Jiang Feng immediately took out the transparent lunch box and began to pack the braised meat, weigh it, and calculate the price.

“You have an appetite, buy this much.”

Jiang Feng chatted with her.

 “My family is over there at Happy Ranch, and my dad and the ranch employees love to eat meat.”

 “If your braised pork is delicious, he will have to buy it every day.”

 Zhang Xinya replied.

 Looking at it this way, this is indeed a big business.

“Okay, the braised pork I made is delicious when it’s hot.”

 “It’s best to heat it up when you eat it.”

Jiang Feng prepared the braised pork that Zhang Xinya asked for, packed it, and put it in the frame of the electric car for her.

“Okay, it smells really good. I’ll have a taste first when I go back.”

 Zhang Xinya paid the money, got on the electric bike and left.

 Her business is over, and there really isn't much braised pork left in Jiangfeng Pot.

 There are only some chicken feet left.

 “It actually sold out, faster than I thought.”

Jiang Feng sighed with emotion.

If he sets up his stall until after 6 p.m., it will definitely not be a problem for him to sell out all the braised pork.

 It’s only around 2:30 in the afternoon, so it’s still early.

Jiang Feng didn’t intend to be so tired.

 A moderate amount of work can make people live a fulfilling life, but a little too much work can make people irritable.

 “Xiao Hei, get ready to go home.”

Jiang Feng shouted at the little black dog in the car.

 “Wang’er!”

 The little guy responded with a milky cry.

Jiang Feng couldn't help but laugh when he saw how smart this little guy was.

 This kind of life is so leisurely.

 Especially when you are about to leave, a guest comes and buys up all your stock.

 That would be even more comfortable.

Jiang Feng drove the mobile dining car slowly away from the resort.

 He opened the car window, and the wind blew in, feeling free and comfortable.
