Chapter 244 Leftovers
After putting all the duck and marinade into the bucket and covering it with a cage cloth, Zhou Mingqin prepared to cook.
When Old Mrs. Zhou came back from outside, she saw her grandchildren busy preparing dinner, so she immediately washed her hands and came over to help.
Zhou Mingshu finished cooking the stir-fried duck intestines and went out with the plate.
The room was a bit choking and there were some smoke eyes.
She was exhausted after working all day, so she decided to come out and take a rest.
"Uncle, buy some vegetables that can be cooked for a long time tomorrow, and some tofu skin and bean curd."
"A vegetable that can withstand cooking? Radish?"
Boss Zhou didn’t know what dishes his niece wanted, nor did he know which dishes were more durable to cook.
"Uh... a radish would be fine, and if there are lotus roots, you can buy some."
"In that case, you can buy some lettuce, Sanya, do you want to braise these vegetables?"
Liu guessed.
"Yeah, let's buy some and stew them ourselves."
These vegetarian dishes are relatively cheap and it’s hard to put a price on them, but they’re quite good when eaten by family.
"Okay, I'll ask your aunt to go to the vegetable market tomorrow and buy some vegetables if there are any suitable ones."
The matter was settled.
The main reason is that the radishes and other vegetables in my own vegetable garden have not grown up yet.
In addition to the fragrant roast duck, the roast duck stall also sells spicy and delicious duck products.
But looking at the prices above, everyone still feels that it is a bit expensive.
However, some people were still stimulated by the spicy and numbing taste and couldn't help but buy some to try it.
"Brother, your braised duck feet are really delicious. What's the seasoning on them? Can you give me two?"
The buyer looked at the red fruit on the board, was a little curious, and wanted two.
"Okay, this is called chili pepper, which is unique to my Zhou family. You can take it home and chop it up and stir-fry it into the dish."
"Okay, okay, thank you, boss."
He didn't mean anything else, he just thought the seasoning was flavorful!
He originally wanted to put two in his mouth and chew them, but he didn't expect that the peppers were covered with marinade. It was so spicy that he died after taking a bite.
As long as there are people who want to buy it, Boss Zhou won’t worry about not being able to sell the duck.
He cut two sections of duck intestines and placed them on a small plate so that any interested customer could have a taste.
If it tastes good to you, buy it. If it doesn’t, you don’t have to buy it. You can try it for free.
Once the tasting activity goes online, it will attract quite a few people to place orders.
"Don't worry, big brother. This small dish is not enough to go with a pot of wine. Call two relatives and friends and pour a plate of peanuts. It will be very delicious."
"Boss Zhou, you are right. I bought it to entertain a few friends. You don't know that your roast duck is very famous in town. Everyone says it is delicious and fragrant. Now you have a new product. I have to buy some to taste it."
"Hahaha, good to go. Since you're an old customer, I'll give you two more sections of duck intestines. Come back after you've eaten your fill."
When Boss Zhou sees that people buy a lot, he gives more things as gifts, so that customers will be happy with their food and come back to buy more.
Orders for roast duck are coming in very quickly. Forty roast ducks were slaughtered yesterday and they were sold out soon after they were put on the street.
There were only some duck products left on the stall.
Although it tastes good and many people buy it, it is still inferior to roast duck.
"Boss, should we lower the price?" Liu said nervously.
This year, they have not encountered the problem of slow sales, whether they are selling jelly or braised meat.
But these duck products seem to be slow to sell.
"Wait and see. Once you lower the price, they won't be able to hold back. When they see that we can't sell, they will lower the price and won't buy from us anymore."
"Yeah, that's right. What you said makes sense. I'll go to the vegetable market now since I'm not busy."
"Okay, go ahead, I'll take care of the stall."
As soon as the roast duck was sold out, the crowd dispersed a lot.
Even though many people were interested in duck products, they still hesitated and left because of the price.
Boss Zhou couldn't figure out the reason. There were a few customers buying things just now, why is there no one now?
After picking up a piece of duck intestine and putting it in his mouth, Boss Zhou nodded in satisfaction at the taste.
Everyone worked so hard to clean the duck intestines and added so many seasonings. This bundle of duck intestines doesn't make much money at one cent. It's purely hard-earned money.
If no one buys, then no one buys. I’ll go home and have a drink with the second and third brothers.
Thinking of this, Boss Zhou felt a lot more relieved.
Although business is not as good as before, a deserted stall is the norm.
But we still received a few orders.
When Liu came back with the basket, more than half of the duck was still left on the board.
"Boss, it's not really not to everyone's taste, is it? It doesn't feel much less than before."
"Yeah, it's okay. It's cold today, so it won't go bad even if it's left over."
The two of them usually packed up and went home before noon, but today they didn't go home until noon.
And there were still some duck goods left in the car.
Although I sold most of it, it was the first time I brought home any leftovers.
"Uncle and aunt, you are finally back. Lunch is ready. Come eat and take a rest."
Zhou Mingshu kindly pulled the little donkey over and touched its nose to comfort it.
"Sana, why don't you ask us why we came back so late?" Liu's face didn't look very good.
Zhou Mingshu didn't know why her aunt said that, but as her eyes moved, she seemed to have grasped the reason.
"Aunt, isn't it leftovers?!"
"Ah~ You really got it right, there really are leftovers! There are still quite a lot left."
Liu sighed and looked unhappy.
"Haha, it's okay. I've already thought of that. Whatever's left is left. We can keep it for ourselves."
"Ah? How did you come up with that?"
Liu expressed his incomprehension of Zhou Mingshu's statement.
"You said before that your family didn't eat duck heads and duck necks before. Even if they are braised now, they may not eat them. Besides, they have never eaten these things. They are so expensive. If they don't like them after buying them home, it will be a waste."
"Ah? What should we do then? Are we going to continue to sell it in the future?"
Liu frowned, feeling that the braised duck business was going to fail.
"Sell it. This business makes a lot of money. It would be a pity not to sell it. Those who don't like it may never like it in their entire life, but those who like it will like it no matter how we make it. Uncle and aunt, you might as well go around more in front of restaurants and wineries. These places are mostly filled with people who love wine. When they drink and go to restaurants, they will buy some."
"That's a good idea. There are many wealthy people in these places who are willing to spend money."
"Aunt, you are right. You can go and have a look tomorrow."
"Okay, okay, now that you say that, I feel much more relieved. I was just worried that these vegetables wouldn't sell, and we would lose money."
Liu breathed a sigh of relief, and a smile gradually appeared on her face.
"Hahaha, relax, auntie. Don't worry. We have made back our investment just by selling roast duck. We can sell as many ducks as we can. It's all profit."
Zhou Mingshu laughed and gave some advice, the effect was obvious.
