I’m Not a Scumbag

The value of the factory was not easy to estimate, so Lin Fang had to bring in foreign aid.

Sister Hua sent two girls to help. Besides Linxia, ​​there was another girl named Jiangxia.

Linxia was a little talker, and Jiang Xia was even less talkative than her.

Anyway, Linxia can still communicate with people normally.

Jiang Xia's situation was even more serious.

Except for work, Xia was dumbfounded and unresponsive to everything.

Speaking of which, it's all the fault of the "Flower Boat Gang".

They almost perfectly transformed Xia into a beautiful humanoid puppet.

Lin Fang didn't want to use the word "blessing in disguise" on Jiang Xia, even if he could see that, under the influence of other emotions being suppressed, when Xia faced work, he was able to burst out 120% of his enthusiasm - he would not. willing.

With the help of Linxia and Jiangxia, the previously complicated work has been changed easily and quickly.

Lin Fang didn't need to know the exact number, he just needed to know that he wasn't taken as a scapegoat, that's enough, he signed all contracts happily.

When the old man Yang took the bearer bond and left with Qian Duoduo happily, Lin Xia breathed a sigh of relief.

"Mr. Lin, you have made a lot of money!"

"You mean I have no loss?"

"..." Seeing Lin Fang's regretful expression, Linxia suddenly felt that she shouldn't be here, she should be outside the door.

"Yes, Mr. Lin." After being strongly stimulated by Lin Fang, Linxia lost her excitement and said with a blank face: "The factory that Mr. Robert transferred to you is a small pharmacy factory. The production is penicillin, and there is absolutely no need to consider the issue of sales. It can be called a hen that can lay golden eggs."

"Penicillin?" Lin Fang knew the relatively ancient name of penicillin, and he had to thank those anti-Japanese dramas in his previous life, "I see."

"???" Linxia was speechless, "Sir, don't you want to know how much income this pharmaceutical factory can bring you every year?"

"I don't want to." Lin Fang shrugged indifferently, "That would reduce the fun of spending money for me."

Lin Fang vaguely remembered that he once saw an interesting question and answer on the forced call. The title and Gao Zan's answer seemed to be like this:

Question: Why do rich people like to spend a lot of money on useless things?

A: Because spending money makes people happy. The more you spend, the happier you are.

Lin Fang didn't understand it before, but now he finally experienced the happiness of a rich man.

Linxia actually wanted to deprive him of his happy experience, it was so annoying!

Linxia: "..."

Half an hour later, the clothes that Lin Fang and Qi Ruizhu bought were delivered.

The three-story western-style building also changed its plaque and officially hung the signboard of "Lin Mansion".

Outside the door, Linxia couldn't hold back even though she knew she shouldn't ask, "Sir, don't you and Miss Ruizhu live here?"

"No." Lin Fang replied calmly, "I bought a place to put clothes, and I'll come back later when I change clothes."

"..."

I know, I already knew I shouldn't ask!

Linxia didn't say a word, and was about to leave with Jiang Xia's little hand, but was stopped by Lin Fang.

"It's so late, come back with me to have a meal and then go back!" Lin Fang smiled happily, "It just happens that there are so many people, I will invite you to eat hot pot tonight!"

As a traditional delicacy in a food-loving country, hot pot has a long history and can be traced back to the Warring States Period two thousand years ago.

In this world of the Republic of China, it is more common for families to eat hot pot at dinner.

There are also special hotpot restaurants, but most of them are more common in the north.

There is no such atmosphere in Shiliyangchang.

Lin Fang proposed to eat hot pot, but the three girls present were a little indifferent.

Seeing this, Lin Fang smiled very happily.

The less I feel now, the more my face hurts when it smells so good!

After looking for four rickshaws to go back, Lin Fang realized that no matter how old-fashioned the classic cars of the Republic of China were, they were still useful for traveling.

When the four of them go home together, they are forced to line up. It’s okay to experience it occasionally, but it’s not comfortable to do so often.

Lin Fang had just paid to get off the rickshaw when two shadows rushed over.

Bang! Bah!

"Ah... the owner!" ??2.

Lin Fang kicked people, and he heard the screams that were familiar. He took a little effort and came back, but he didn't kick Da Mao and Xiao Hei to death.

"You two, do you want to die?" Lin Fang's anger remained unabated, "If I hadn't discovered it in time and had gathered some strength to come back, the two of you would have waited for someone to collect the corpse!"

"I'm sorry, the owner..." Da Mao apologized while covering his stomach, "I and Xiao Hei finally waited until the owner came back. We were so excited that we couldn't help it!"

"Brother Mao, don't you say that the food outside is not delicious, or the owner's food is more delicious. When the owner comes, can we two be more enthusiastic?"

"Go away! Stop talking nonsense!"

Lin Fang didn't believe a word of what Da Mao said.

On the contrary, Xiao Hei is more sincere, and what he said may be closer to the truth.

"Stay on the side!" Lin Fang was too lazy to give these two lazy guys a good look, especially Da Mao, this **** just treated himself as a free canteen here!

Although Lin Fang's cooking skills are excellent, the food he makes is extremely delicious.

You can get two words for free, and you can naturally add 50 points!

Back in the store, Lin Fang greeted everyone, making everyone busy.

The most important soul of hot pot is the bottom of the pot.

Without a good pot bottom, the cooked dishes are bland and tasteless.

The second most important thing is the dipping saucer.

The ingredients that are scalded in the red pot, even if the dipping sauce is slightly less flavorful, still have a strong fragrance of their own.

But if there is no suitable dipping saucer for the ingredients that come out of the white pot, how can it taste so bad!

Lin Fang is responsible for the bottom of the pot and the dipping ingredients.

He left the rest of the dishes to Qi Ruizhu and others.

When he came back, Lin Fang was well prepared. He bought beef, pork chops, mutton and offal at the butcher's shop, and fresh mullet, prawns and squid at the dock. The shop had potatoes, lotus root, lettuce, and even more. Had homemade tofu and bean curd.

Kill another chicken, get some chicken blood, chop off the chicken wings and feet for a while and scald the hot pot, stir fry the chicken offal and some chicken with pickled peppers, and boil the remaining chicken head and chicken skeleton together with the soaked mushrooms. Make a white pot.

There is nothing to say about the white pot, it is mainly delicious, mostly chicken soup, pork bones or mushroom bottoms.

If you don't care about the cost and want something delicious, then it is naturally the best to boil it with dried mushrooms. Not only are the hot ingredients delicious, but the soup is also delicious.

The red pot was the focus of Lin's great effort tonight.

When he bought beef, he also bought some butter.

You must put butter in the red pot, in order to have the mellow and rich aroma of authentic Sichuan style hot pot.

Simply cooking with vegetable oil always feels less soulful.

Douban, dried chili, ginger, garlic, pepper, green onion, grass fruit, bay leaf, cinnamon, star anise, these dry ingredients are prepared early, monosodium glutamate, rock sugar, and white wine are set aside for later use, and the butter is almost cooked, in order put in.

Soon, a spicy and mellow fragrance filled the store.

Qi Ruizhu and others who were processing the ingredients, washed, cut, or sliced, could not sit still when they smelled the fragrance.

"It's so fragrant, why is it so fragrant?"

"Didn't you mean to eat hot pot? What kind of fairy taste is this!"

"Sure enough, the owner's food is delicious!"

Da Mao and Xiao Hei exchanged glances quietly, his eyes were full of remorse.

Remembering that at noon he and Xiao Hei spent a full 3 yuan on a table of dishes in that shabby store, and it was not good to have a full stomach.

Speaking of materials, the materials on that table are really good things.

There are chicken, duck, fish, and meat, but no matter how you eat it, it doesn't taste right.

Xiao Hei has a rather reckless personality, and even yelled at the shopkeeper to deceive people. Fortunately, Da Mao stopped him in time, and secretly took a bite of chopsticks at the next table, and found that it was equally unpalatable.

Only then did they settle the bill angrily, and gave all the dishes on the table to the beggars in the alley.

Before they knew it, their stomachs had been fed by Lin Fang.

From morning to night, we eat exquisite food.

Even the bean curd rice cooked in a large pot by Lin, and the salted duck eggs and preserved eggs that were marinated in batches, were better than the chicken, duck, and fish at this table.

If they had known that eating out would be such a result, killing the two brothers, Da Mao and Xiao Hei, they would be reluctant to waste these three dollars.

Who would have thought that a large table costing three yuan for a meal would not be able to catch up with a serving of beancurd rice that costs 20 copper yuan!

Where does this make sense?

Now smelling the strong aroma of Lin Fang's hot pot base, the two brothers, Da Mao and Xiao Hei, who were already hungry, felt that their stomachs were even more shriveled.

"very hungry……"

"starving!"

Da Mao and Xiao Hei suddenly felt that their strength was drained, and their work movements slowed down.

"You two are delicious slackers!" Qi Ruizhu saw this, curious and funny, "If the owner sees it, be careful not to let you eat!"

"No!"

"You can beat me once, but you have to give me a meal!"

Da Mao and Xiao Hei were threatened by Qi Ruizhu, and it was as if they had been beaten with blood. They regained their energy and worked hard.

As Lin Fang added different spices, the flavor of the hot pot base became more and more intense.

Different spices, under the roasting and integration of butter, seem to be condensed into a rope, as if they have a soul, and the fragrance they emit has become invisible little hands, which drill into everyone's nose. , scratching the heart, scratching the stomach.

The gluttons in everyone's stomach were hooked out.

The secretion of saliva is accelerated.

Even the most expressionless Jiang Xia Du couldn't help but turn his head to look in Lin Fang's direction frequently, and his small mouth couldn't stop swallowing.

So fragrant!

Another feature of Sichuan-style hot pot is that the pot is very large. It is actually an iron pot rather than a pot.

Even the mandarin duck pot does not need to be specially customized.

Just put a piece of iron in the middle,

Lin Fang poured the fried red pot base material into one side, and then poured the chicken soup that had been boiled for a long time on the other side, holding the steaming bottom of the pot and placed it on the small stove that had already been ignited. A hot pot feast is ready to begin.

As for the dipping ingredients, Lin Fang had already prepared them in the gap between frying the hot pot base.

He made three kinds of dipping sauces.

One is a more northern sesame sauce dish: sesame sauce, chive flowers, and fermented bean curd sauce.

One is the authentic Sichuan style sesame oil dish: garlic, coriander, spicy millet, sesame oil, sesame oil dip.

One is a relatively universal dry dish: a combination of chili noodles + crushed peanuts.

The first type of dipping sauce does not require additional salt, and the fermented bean curd already acts as a provider of salt flavor.

The other two require the adjustment of salt and monosodium glutamate, especially the second Sichuan style dipping sauce, and some oyster sauce should be added to make the dipping sauce more delicious.

Lin Fang chose the sesame oil dish and the dry dish by himself, and sat in front of the hot pot. "Everyone can take the dipping dish, whatever you like to eat, and put the ingredients that are not easy to cook first."

"okay!"

"Finally we can start eating!"

"Long live the owner!"

As Lin Fang sat down, the house was noisy for a while. Everyone sat in front of the hot pot with their chosen dipping plates, staring at the boiling soup pot, waiting for the ingredients to be cooked.

The ribs, beef tendons, beef intestines, chicken feet, chicken wings, shiitake mushrooms, tofu, and lotus root that are not easy to cook should be thrown away first.

Half of the red pot and half of the white pot.

If Lin Fang ate it by himself, he wouldn't throw the ingredients into the white pot, but considering that some people can't eat spicy food, it's a compromise.

Beef, hairy belly, mutton, which are easy to cook, can be cooked as you eat.

"Come on, let's eat!" Lin Fang was not polite to others, he took a piece of beef first, put it in the red pot and shook it a few times.

The temperature of the boiled butter red pot is always kept at a very high temperature, because it is full of butter on the surface, and it is also shabu-shabu. The speed of the beef in the red pot is faster for a few seconds.

Lin Fang scalded it a few times, and when he saw that the beef was discolored, he took it out decisively, put it in a sesame oil dish and stirred it lightly.

With the familiar taste, Lin Fang couldn't help but sighed contentedly.

The hot pot base he made himself was actually better than the best hot pot he had ever eaten.

I have to say ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ In this world, his biggest gain is probably the improvement of his cooking skills.

Every day, Lin Fang could clearly feel the progress of his cooking skills.

If one day he could return to the Earth Era and see Mr. Peng again, Lin Fang would be able to pat his chest and say proudly: "Master, my cooking skills have surpassed yours!"

After eating the first slice of beef, Lin Fang rinsed another slice, but this time, he changed the dipping plate, smeared the beef with chili noodles, pepper noodles, and then wrapped it in crushed peanuts.

But this time, he eats slowly, waiting for the temperature of the beef to cool down.

The sesame oil dish has its own cooling effect. You can almost put it in and stir it for a few times, then pick it up and eat it.

The dry dish does not have this special function. You have to wait for the temperature to drop before you can enter it, otherwise it will burn your tongue.

Next, Lin Fang chose to attack the mutton.

The beef is tender, but the mutton is fresh.

Generally, when you eat plain mutton, you need to consider the problem of removing the fishy smell.

Eating hot pot has no such concerns at all.

Especially when it is scalded in a red pot, under the neutralization of the butter, the fishy smell hides and turns into a special aroma. Mix it in a sesame oil dish and put it in your mouth, it is a supreme delicacy.

Then again, hairy belly, fish fillet...

After eating all kinds of ingredients, Lin Fang felt the atmosphere of his hometown that he had not seen for a long time.

Sure enough, the hot pot is still delicious!
