Chapter 150 Ambush

Stinky tofu is a very popular snack in modern times. Basically, wherever there are Chinese people, there is such a smell. It smells stinky and tastes delicious. If you don't eat it every now and then, you will even miss it.

A taste.

Different regions have derived different flavors, of which Changsha stinky tofu is the main representative. There are various varieties of stinky tofu, and the sauces of stinky tofu are also quite different. Take Changsha stinky tofu as an example. Changsha stinky tofu is mostly known as

Soup and chili sauce are the main seasonings.

The characteristic of Changsha stinky tofu is that it has a pungent smell at first and a strong aroma that is tempting when you take a closer breath. The difference between the regions of stinky tofu is mainly reflected in the difference in brine. The brine ingredients of Changsha stinky tofu are mostly black in color.

Nanjing stinky tofu tastes crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, with a strong flavor. Cut this type of stinky tofu into small pieces, skewer it on bamboo skewers, and brush it with chili sauce, sesame sauce and other sauces. It tastes very delicious and chewy.

Hakka stinky tofu, in Liancheng Hakka in western Fujian, the locals like to collect snow in a vat in winter, add straw ash and some seasonings to the snow water in the next summer, and then use it to make brine to soak the fresh tofu, and fish it out a day later

Wash and add sesame oil, green chili, minced garlic, minced coriander, soy sauce and a little salt.

Shaoxing stinky tofu, Shaoxing stinky tofu is crispy and tender on the inside, salty and fresh, delicious, fragrant and smelly.

Jiang Ning still remembered these information. As for whether it can be made, he still needs to experiment. The most important one is brine.

This afternoon, Jiang Ning explained his ideas to Liu Sisi in the yard, and simplified the production methods. Naturally, varieties from different regions cannot be made. The current Hangzhou is not the same as the Hangzhou he knows.

The latitude has increased by at least several degrees, but the Qinling Mountains are on the south side of Zhejiang Province. The simplest way is to make them uniformly and then use marinade seasoning to distinguish them. When conditions are available, continue to expand.

But Liu Sisi was extremely repelled by this kind of smelly thing. She had always dealt with rouge and gouache, but now she had to deal with "stinky" things. Everyone has a love for beauty, let alone her.

But seeing Jiang Ning praising this thing, Liu Sisi felt that she had no way out. After struggling, she had only this option.

Jiang Ning wrote down the production method and the preparation of the brine. It was approaching the end of the year, and he estimated that there would be various matters at home, and he should be able to make it before the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.

"These pots and bowls of yours are a bit simple. Buy some good-looking ones and classify them into categories so that they can be sold more easily." Jiang Ning said, "It's just a personal suggestion, for reference only."

Liu Sisi also thought about replacing a batch, but she hadn't opened the business yet. With such a large investment, once she suffered a loss, she couldn't afford the price of losing all her money, but she still nodded: "Well, I want to buy some good ones, but the former

I have been busy these days and never thought of this."

"Well, if there is nothing you don't know, you can ask me at home or at the academy." Jiang Ning added.

"So, thank you very much, sir." Liu Sisi smiled slightly.

Jiang Ning smiled, then took the garbage out and threw it at the corner of the street. It was already approaching dusk, the 22nd day of the twelfth lunar month, and tomorrow would be the Little New Year.

When they arrived at the gate of the palace, they saw a carriage parked and eight officials surrounding it. Just as they were about to go in, they saw a group of people walking out of the house.

"My grandpa stayed here. If we delay any longer, I'm afraid my old mother will blame me when I go back. Haha..." The leading man is wearing an official uniform. There are landscapes painted on the red uniform. He should be an official above the fifth rank and below the third rank.

, and the governor of Hangzhou is the third rank, and the general is the third rank. The person in front of me has eight guards, so his official position should be quite high.

Jiang Ning naturally hid aside. It would be better if he could not be seen.

The old man sent this man out in person, which also shows how important this man is to the Wang family. The Wang family can achieve its current scale without dealing with the government. The prefects and generals in Hangzhou City are the first to bear the brunt, and I have heard from outsiders.

There is a distant relative who serves as the Imperial Prince in Luoyang. He was of great help to the Wang family when they first started their business. After all, he is an official of the imperial capital. If he writes a letter to Hangzhou, the local officials will still give him some face. It is helpful to help.

No need, as long as you don't cause any trouble, you're already well on your way.

Looking at this middle-aged man, his gestures were all polite. He should be the prince who was offering wine. Among the people bidding farewell, Wang Ruoyan was naturally among them. Wang Ruoyan walked to the back of the crowd and waited for everyone to enter the house.

, Wang Ruoyan then turned around and walked towards Jiang Ning.

"Ms. sir, why did you come back just now?" Wang Ruoyan asked: "Uncle Lu asked about you just now, but he couldn't find you. Fortunately, he didn't see you. Otherwise, he would have asked a few questions to make things difficult for you."

"Is that the guy just now?" Jiang Ning pointed to the carriage that disappeared at the corner of the street.

The two of them talked as they walked towards the house.

"Yes." Wang Ruoyan and Jiang Ning walked side by side: "Today's Guozi sacrifice wine was raised from the third level last year. This year he came back to visit his relatives. It can be regarded as a return to his hometown in fine clothes. His mother and grandfather are cousins, so they are also related."

"I heard from my father that when the Wang family started to engage in business, my mother, my cousin, was always taken care of by my father. Therefore, there was no shortage of help from the officialdom. At least the governor of Hangzhou and the general's office did not cause any trouble for our family.

Although there have been some ups and downs over the years, overall it has been smooth sailing, so I came to visit Grandpa after I came back."

"Listening to what you said, other businessmen have suffered a lot, right?" Jiang Ning said with a smile.

Wang Ruoyan sighed and said: "It's not entirely true, but it's almost the same. The Yang family can achieve its current status because it is said that there are relatives working in General Tiance's Mansion, one of the Eight Pillars of the Eight Kingdoms, and the general takes care of it, but the annual expenses in this regard

It’s quite big too.”

"Most of the He family, the Sun family, and the Han family are like this. They have some relationship with the prefect and the general. But because of Uncle Lu, we have some relationships with the Ministry of Revenue and maintain a balance with both parties.

status."

"By the way, tomorrow is the New Year, and the younger generation will have a smaller family dinner in the evening." Wang Ruoyan reminded.

Entering the Bieyuan, the setting sun has disappeared. Only the red lanterns that decorate the Bieyuan are like daylight, reflecting on the snow, which looks particularly dazzling. As the Chinese New Year is approaching, there is naturally a lot of fish and meat at home. Wang Zihan also arrived at the Bieyuan.

They had dinner together, took a hand stove, sat in the garden of the yard, talked about some interesting things, and then went back to rest.

Crescent Moon fetched hot water and brought it to Jiang Ning's room. She washed her feet and was about to go to bed.

However, Yue Ya went out and ran back: "Uncle...tomorrow night..."

Yue Ya hesitated, Jiang Ning saw this and smiled: "Why, why are you hesitating? Is there something wrong?"

"Tomorrow night, the young lady's cousins ​​will be here. I heard... they want to take a test on my uncle, and they all blame me. If I hadn't taken out the poem, my uncle wouldn't have so much trouble..."

"Haha, don't worry about this. Since I can write it down, I'm not afraid of them taking the exam. If anyone wants to come, just let them come. I, my uncle, will accept everything as ordered..."

"But……"

"Go to bed quickly..." Jiang Ning said these four words almost in a commanding tone. It was already cold winter, but Yue Ya was wearing a thicker nightgown at the moment, which was not close to the body. She was standing at the door. If she was wearing

With the wind and cold gone, this year may not be easy.
