Chapter 45: Chapter 45 Launching New Products



At 7:30 in the evening, the number of people in the shop had started to scatter.

Actually, the shop was always teeming with people, largely because customers often had to wait quite a while for their turn.

Moreover, many people just bought food to take home and didn't sit down to eat.

Now with the cooperation of two kitchens, this problem was naturally solved.

After seeing the crowd thin out, Tong Ya wanted to take out the fish she had bought and stew it.

However, the kitchen in the shop was vastly different from a home kitchen.

There were some things she simply didn't know how to use.

Especially the wok, it was so large and sometimes even required an open flame, which made her feel a bit apprehensive just thinking about it.

"I'll do it!" Chen Yu appeared behind Tong Ya very gently and took the knife from her hand.

Tong Ya quickly stepped aside, feeling a bit embarrassed as she stood by to assist.

In no time, Chen Yu, whose cooking skills had reached a miraculous level, had a table full of lavish dishes ready.

At Chen Yu's call, the six girls temporarily put down their work and gathered around.

"Brother Yu, I want to make a suggestion," Chu Hong suddenly spoke up.

"What suggestion?"

"We have been discussing these past two days and feel that the tasks given by the shop seem a bit too easy."

Chen Yu was slightly taken aback, as the staff in other shops yearned for 24 hours of rest a day.

Yet these girls actually complained about having an easy time.

Li Yu also nodded in agreement: "And if our shop only sells fried cakes and vegetable turnovers, it's a bit monotonous, shouldn't we introduce some new products?"

Chen Yu smiled faintly, "I have been planning on that. Braised delicacies will be added to the shop tomorrow, then you will be busy."

"Really?" Tuan Tuan suddenly got excited, "My dad used to braise pig trotters for me, and they were especially delicious."

Tong Ya had a face full of anticipation.

If simple fried cakes and vegetable turnovers could be made so delicious, then the braised delicacies would certainly be no less.

Chen Yu didn't say much more, and after dinner, he led everyone to start tidying up the shop.

By 8:30 in the evening, Chen Yu heard the prompt in his mind.

It had to be said, the six girls' professional abilities were getting stronger by the day.

In just about ten minutes, they had already cleaned up the shop.

Even the system approved of the cleaning results.

[Congratulations to the host for perfectly completing a day's business. Today's net profit is forty-four thousand yuan, earning forty-four thousand points. The current total accumulated points are two hundred and thirty-nine thousand seven hundred and eighty.]

Chen Yu exhaled softly. Today he finally had a point addition.

Furthermore, Chen Yu's payment account had already accumulated more than one hundred and seventy thousand, and the cash in the bar was also seven or eight thousand.

Chen Yu immediately transferred one hundred and thirty thousand yuan to the demand account, adding to the seventy thousand already there, rounding it up to two hundred thousand yuan.

On Chen Yu's hand, including the few thousand left over from before, was a total of over fifty thousand yuan.

The six girls and Chen Yu said their goodbyes, then went back to the apartments behind the shop with Tang Xiaowei.

However, before they left, Chen Yu gave the keys to the shop's main gate to Chu Hong.

In case one day the girls arrived too early and he had not woken up.

It would be unreasonable to let them stand outside in the wind!

Tong Ya also gave Chen Yu a meaningful glance, then went upstairs to the third floor with Tuan Tuan.

Without hesitation, Chen Yu called the meat supplier he had used before and directly ordered them to deliver five hundred pounds of pig heads and five hundred pounds of pork knuckles.

After all, the supplier recommended by the system was definitely reliable.

Although he had specified the parts of the meat, the supplier still charged Chen Yu eight yuan per pound.

But Chen Yu was cautious when buying seasonings.

He had the supplier deliver some of everything, necessary or not.

After all, these condiment sellers were very shrewd, even able to derive recipes based on the customers' needs.

Less than twenty minutes later, the butcher arrived at the door, driving a large truck.

The deliveryman this time looked burly, with a sullen face.

He didn't want to say more than necessary and helped Chen Yu carry the pork into the cold storage as soon as he got out of the truck.

After the butcher left, Chen Yu went upstairs to sleep.

It wasn't until five o'clock the next day that Chen Yu finally got up.

When he came downstairs, he found that the shop was already operating in an orderly manner.

However, Chen Yu did not see the figure of Tong Ya.

It seemed that Tong Ya had not gotten up yet.

After all, she had been busy with him for so long; it was time for her to have a good rest.

Moreover, yesterday, all of the raw materials had already been turned into semi-finished products for fried cakes and vegetable dumplings.

There were no worries about sales for the next three days.

Chen Yu didn't bother to manage too much, so he rolled up his sleeves and went straight to the kitchen on the first floor.

He took out three pig heads and three large elbows from the refrigeration room.

Since it was his first time, he didn't dare to make too much at once.

Although the system had provided him with an accurate recipe, he still had to do the handiwork himself.

Chen Yu roughly processed the elbows and pig heads with a kitchen knife before immersing them in clean water, adding cooking wine and ginger slices.

After simmering for a while to force out the blood and scum,

he washed them clean, then used a tool full of spikes to jab at them repeatedly.

At the same time, he applied soy sauce and other seasonings evenly.

After processing the elbows and pig heads, Chen Yu began to blend the soup.

In the world of braises, there's a distinction between clear braise and spice braise.

Clear braise requires the simmering of a special broth, which is extremely troublesome.

And the ingredients needed are very expensive.

The broth used for the famous Poached Sliced Beef in Hot Chili Oil is known as a clear braise.

In comparison, spice braise seems simpler, but its essence lies in the recipe.

Every person who makes braise has a unique spice braise recipe.

Even those century-old shops that have been handed down for hundreds of years use spice braise for their century-old broth.

Soon after, Chen Yu mixed various seasonings into a large pot.

When the temperature reached sixty degrees Celsius, Chen Yu placed the elbows and pig heads into the pot and covered it with a lid.

He first cooked it on high heat for nearly twenty minutes before switching to a low heat for a slow simmer.

After two full hours, Chen Yu finally turned off the heat.

The instant the lid was opened, the overflowing aroma instantly spread everywhere.

Even Chu Hong, who was earnestly making fried cakes and vegetable dumplings, couldn't help but look over.

"Yu, what's that smell? It's so fragrant!"

"Five-spice sauce elbows!"

Chen Yu replied, then took a small bowl, scooped out a small piece of pig head meat, and passed it over.

Chu Hong quickly took it and stuffed it into her mouth.

"Wow, this is delicious! Yu, your cooking skills are really good."

The enticing aroma also attracted the attention of customers outside.

A few neighbors even went around to the kitchen doorway to peer inside.

If the kitchen door wasn't locked from the inside, they might have rushed right in.
