Chapter 946 Strange Tea
The main reason is that the girls like sweets, and the pastries are small, so they can be finished in just a few bites.
For those with big appetites, one piece is not enough and they have to ask for another one.
Also, if you are hosting a banquet at home and don’t know how to make it yourself, a cake like this that costs only 70 or 80 cents a piece will cost dozens or even hundreds of dollars, which is a huge expense!
The old men looked at her in amazement.
Li said, "You have to know how to do business. Look at Lu County. It has been a few years. Now the most revenue a day in a month is only about ten strings of cash. That's because many families buy large round plates."
This was because of the customers attracted by the opening of the shop in Yunzhou. Before that, although the big round plates in the shop in Lu County were rare, they were not that popular. The most they earned on a single day was seven strings of cash.
Wu Ya said: "In that case, we should open one in Chengding as well. If it makes money, should we open one in Huaiyang as well?"
Zhou Guo said: "Of these places, Yunzhou is the richest and has many wealthy families, so they earn a lot. But in Chengding and other places, I'm afraid they can't earn that much every day."
It would be great if I could earn about twenty strings of cash a day.
Li said, "It's already good enough. Don't be so ambitious. How can every shop make so much money every day? It's not like they have too much money to spend. They send you sweets all the time. If you eat too much of this sweet stuff, you won't want to eat it for ten days or half a month, or even longer."
But as long as there is some profit, that's enough.
The old man nodded. Although he liked to eat dim sum, he was not very fond of sweet things. The dim sum shop of Zhou Guo was the one that he could eat a few pieces because of its sweet taste.
Zhou Guo said: "I am not too ambitious, as long as I don't lose anything, it's fine."
The tea and pastries in this shop are just not very suitable. The tea should be changed. Shouldn’t fruit tea or milk tea be more suitable with pastries?
Since she had nothing to do at home, she gathered all the ingredients and started cooking in the kitchen.
This isn't a difficult thing to do, the hard part is making it taste good.
When the old man saw her enter the kitchen, he sat in the yard and didn't plan to go anywhere.
Wu Ya was amused and whispered to Li: "Second Aunt, look at the gentleman."
Li smiled and said, "I saw it."
Everyone knows that the old man loves food. As soon as Zhou Guo enters the kitchen, there must be something delicious, so she doesn't want to go out.
It took several hours, until the evening, for Zhou Guo to make four flavors of milk tea with taro balls in them.
When Zhou Mai and the others came back, they just caught up.
Zhou Guo poured a large cup for each person and brought it out.
Everyone frowned as they looked at the gray, thick water. It didn't feel like milk, nor did it feel like tea. What was this?
Zhou Gu said: "What is this?"
Zhou Guo said: "This is the tea I made, you guys try it."
"Tea? Whose tea looks like this? Are you sure it's not stove ash water?" The old man disagreed.
When everyone took a closer look, they found that it did look a bit like kitchen ash water.
Zhou Guo said: "Just try it. If it doesn't taste good, I'll change it tomorrow."
In fact, she won't change. This is the best she can do.
As for cooking, she only said that it would not be very effective to do it by hand.
Looking at the old man, "Master, why don't you drink first? How can others drink if you don't?"
The old man swallowed and said, "I don't really like drinking tea..."
Everyone looked at him expressionlessly.
Well, the old man took a sip and almost spit it out. His brows were furrowed and he swallowed it with difficulty, as if he was drinking poison. "What is this? This taste is too weird! Why is the tea sweet?"
When the others heard this, they unconsciously moved away from the cups.
The old man is half a gourmet and he is not picky about food. He eats basically everything.
He said this stuff tastes bad, it's really bad.
Zhou Mi stood up and said, "I, I, I...I still have homework to do. I have a lot of homework today. Why don't I go back to the study to do my homework first."
"Sit down!" Zhou Guo gave an order, and Zhou Mai immediately sat back down after raising his butt.
She said, "Everyone has different tastes. Master may say it's not tasty, but maybe you think it's delicious. Try it. I've been busy in the kitchen all afternoon."
Zhou Gu muttered, "Mr. didn't say it's not tasty, he just said it's unpalatable."
Zhou Guo didn't say anything, but decided, "You must drink this tea today, even if it's just one sip."
As he said this, he took a sip and found that although it was not as delicious as he had imagined, it was not as unpalatable as the old man said, right?
Xiaohua took her own cup and took a sip. Her eyes lit up and she said in a clear voice, "Aunt, this tea tastes good. I like it!"
Ok?
Everyone was stunned. Is this another one he likes?
Everyone looked at each other, picked up the cup and took a sip.
Zhou Gu and Zhou Mai didn't like it. Like the old man, they thought it tasted strange, sweet and heavy. "Tea is better!"
Zhou Su liked it very much, and Li Lai didn't reject it either.
Li, Wu Ya, Xu and others don't like drinking tea. Instead, they like drinking wine and they also like this sweet milk tea.
Everyone was expressing their opinions.
Zhou Guo gave them a spoon each and said, "There's something under the cup, try it."
"Oh? Is there something underneath?" Several people took the spoon, scooped a spoonful, and found small purple balls.
Xiaohua exclaimed, "Wow, this color is so beautiful, just like a flower."
Li looked at the small ball curiously, "What is this?"
Zhou Guo said: "Try it."
As she said this, she took a bite first. Although her milk tea was not very good, the taro balls were still good, soft and sticky.
Everyone ate as instructed.
Everyone nodded after eating it, it tasted good.
Li took a few more bites, looked at the contents of the cup, and suddenly realized, "Isn't this another kind of glutinous rice balls and fermented rice? There are small dumplings inside."
"Yup!"
Everyone realized that it was fermented glutinous rice and asked Zhou Guo, "Are you going to sell fermented glutinous rice in the snack shop?"
Zhou Guo said, "What do you think? I just want to make some more variations of the tea in the pastry shop. What do you think of this tea with pastries?"
Everyone shook their heads in agreement, "No, it's too strong. Dim sum has a strong taste to begin with, and drinking this will make it even stronger."
Zhou Guo was not discouraged. "It's okay, Mom. You can adjust it. Sometimes some customers who come to the shop only drink tea. You can change it. Even if they may not like it, it's good enough that some people want to drink it."
Li looked at her in surprise. "How can I do that? I only know how to make snacks and steamed buns. I have never made tea. Isn't this something you came up with? You can modify it yourself."
Zhou Guo rolled his eyes and looked at the old man opposite him, grinning, "Master, you like drinking tea and eating snacks the most, so give me some advice. Aren't you the one who has the most say in what kind of tea goes with what kind of cake?"
