The first thing I did was to find out

Chapter 284 Master Xiao Qin will return like lightning

On March 3, Qin Huai boarded a plane to Shan City carrying large and small bags.

The six chopping boards and three sets of molds that Zhang Chu made for him were all sent by mail early in the morning.

In order to make it easier for Qin Huai to video chat with Cao Guixiang and take online classes while cutting the pier, Zhang Chu made a wooden mobile phone holder for Qin Huai with leftover materials, painted it and carved flowers on it. There was even a small word "Qin" on the back of the holder.

Qin Huai didn't know how Zhang Chu did it. This mobile phone holder is quite flexible. The only drawback is that it is a bit heavy. However, being heavy is also an advantage. It is not easy to be knocked over by external forces.

Cao Guixiang and Zhang Chu sent Qin Huai to the airport.

"Master Cao, I'm going through security. I'll message you after I land to let you know I'm safe. Don't freeze the four-happiness dumplings in the refrigerator for too long. They won't taste as good after a week. The same goes for the four-happiness dumplings. They taste better when they're fresh." Qin Huai waved goodbye to Cao Guixiang and Zhang Chu.

Qin Huai had basically never gotten up early since he moved into Cao Guixiang's house to learn his craft. But this morning, Qin Huai got up early at 4 o'clock, made four-happiness glutinous rice balls and four-happiness dumplings all morning, and made a hearty breakfast for Cao Guixiang and Zhang Chu.

"Don't worry, it won't take long. With Yunyun and Qingqing's appetite, they can finish it all in two or three days. The four-happiness dumplings I brought home from you on the sixth day of the New Year were eaten by Yunyun and Qingqing in one meal." Cao Guixiang smiled and waved her hand, "Don't practice cutting the mounds when you get home today, just have a good rest."

"I know Master Cao." Qin Huai waved his hand again and went through security check and registered.

This time on the plane, Qin Huai did not meet Chen Gong sitting next to him - there was not even anyone sitting next to him.

It can be seen that the airline business is not very prosperous today.

When there was no one around, Qin Huai let himself go and opened the game panel to watch video tutorials. Qin Huai had watched some of these video tutorials many times, but had barely watched some.

Qin Huai has almost watched so many video tutorials on making Guoer, Four Happiness Tangyuan and Sanding Bao.

Of course, there are some that I don’t dare to watch, such as rice cake soup. I can only watch it once, and I will remember it after watching it twice.

But Qin Huai had never really looked at some of the recipes. He only looked at them once or twice, and he couldn't cook them after reading them.

For example, glutinous rice cake and palace lantern buns with flower patterns.

Sorry for the glutinous rice cake and the qianhuai gongdeng bao, Qin Huai has watched the Chinese cabbage fried with meat recipe more times than these two recipes. Sometimes when Qin Huai doesn't know what to do before going to bed, he will watch the video tutorial of Chinese cabbage fried with meat.

The video tutorial of stir-fried pork with Chinese cabbage is very short, just a few minutes, but it is full of practical information. The key is that Qin Huai can really understand it. When there is no time to brush up the proficiency of the heat in the physical sense, you can only watch the video tutorial cyber brush up the proficiency of the heat.

As for Jiangmi Nian Gao and Qianhua Gongdeng Bao, they are not the tutorials to watch before going to bed. The latter is too difficult and you won't be able to do it even if you watch it. Qin Huai's fingering is only at the intermediate level. Qin Huai thinks that even the master-level fingering of S-level Qianhua Gongdeng Bao may not be able to do it. If you want to see some works of art, you can click on it and take a look.

As for glutinous rice cake, I simply haven’t made it yet.

When Qin Huai was trying to improve Qu Jing's favorability, he also practiced making glutinous rice cakes for a while. After he went to Huang Ji for communication, he rarely made them. The occasional snacks and rice cakes he sent to Qu Jing were made by Zheng Siyuan (Zheng Siyuan made better rice cakes than Qin Huai).

The buff of glutinous rice cake must be A-level to take effect. Qin Huai is very clear about his own strength. He simply cannot make A-level glutinous rice cake, so he simply has not even watched the video tutorial.

Alas, it was he who neglected the glutinous rice cake.

Qin Huai felt very guilty and decided to watch it a few more times on the plane.

Then I couldn't stop watching.

This action, this technique, this control of the steaming temperature, this...

A master, absolutely a master.

Hey, which chef made this glutinous rice cake?

Qin Huai glanced at the menu.?

Oh, that monster I met by chance.

I really didn't expect that there would be such a cooking master among the monsters. It turns out that there are many masters among the people.

Qin Huai spent the entire flight watching the video tutorial, enjoying it so much that he didn't even eat the airplane meal. When he got off the plane, Qin Huai was still thinking about how to make glutinous rice cake in the video tutorial, and he felt like trying it.

Qin Huai decided to go home and lie down for a day today, and make glutinous rice cake tomorrow afternoon. He has been making four-happiness dumplings for so long, and has dealt with glutinous rice a lot. Qin Huai is confident that he can make B+ grade glutinous rice cake!

What, you asked him why he didn't have the confidence to produce an A-grade product?

Because he really has no confidence.
.
"Qin Huai! Old Qin! Godfather! Dad!"

At the airport gate, Ouyang rushed towards Qin Huai excitedly. As the distance between them got closer, the way he addressed him became more and more intimate.

Qin Huai: "...I find that you are becoming more and more shameless."

Ouyang is increasingly looking like a profiteer, as he can call out the latter two names in public. He is quite shameless.

"Help! Didn't you say at the beginning that you would be back in two days? It's been more than a week now, and I, your brother, almost died here!" Ouyang cried with tears in his eyes, but there was only thunder but no rain. His voice was full of tears, but there was not a single tear in his eyes.

"What's the situation? Hasn't your grandfather been discharged from the hospital? I see that you are not missing any limbs, your father didn't beat you half to death, and your uncle and aunt didn't blame you. You are the man who sent your whole family to the hospital on New Year's Eve." Qin Huai said with a smile.

"I didn't beat you half to death, but I'm almost broke." Ouyang looked up at the sky stubbornly, because only in this way could he stop his tears from falling. "I borrowed Sister Hong's car to pick you up this time, and I don't have money to fill up the gas tank."

"By the way, Sister Hong asked me to tell you that I'll meet you at Mr. Luo's house at 4pm. I have something to talk to you about."

Qinhuai understood immediately, tea party.

After several months of online tea parties, we can finally hold offline ones. This fruit is only sweet when eaten at Luo Jun's house. The fruit that Luo Jun specially sent to Qinjia Village always tastes a little less delicious when eaten at Qinhuai.

Qin Huai followed Ouyang to the parking lot and asked as they walked, "Your poverty should have nothing to do with me, right? You are poor because you quit your job at the neighborhood committee and have no salary, and your parents have suspended your credit card and don't give you any extra pocket money?"

"Yeah, now I'm counting on the opening of the hand-made lemon tea shop to make some money back. My dad said that if the shop doesn't open, he won't give me a penny."

"How much money did the business owner give you?"

"Two hundred thousand loss funds."

Qin Huai: ...Sometimes I really want to compete with you guys, a bunch of rich second generation.

There was a moment when Qin Huai suddenly didn't want to give Ouyang the fruit tea recipe that Cao Guixiang wrote for him.

"Have you assembled all the employees in the lemon tea shop?" Qin Huai asked.

"Yes, one regular worker and four college students, that's enough."

"I have a question, do you mind taking the high-end route?" Qin Huai asked.

Ouyang:?
Can hand-made lemon tea be high-end?

The two walked to Chen Huihong's Bentley, put their luggage down, and got in the car. Ouyang navigated the route and asked, not quite understanding, "Why do you want to take the high-end route?"

"It's like this. I've been learning the craft these days. My master heard that you were going to open a hand-made lemon tea shop. She was very enthusiastic and gave me a few fruit tea recipes she had researched. I looked at the recipes. They are very simple and easy to use, but the cost is very high. The quality of sugar, tea, fruit and juice is very high. You must not use inferior products as good ones."

"Mix two tablespoons of cheap saccharin, peel off the rotten parts of rotten fruits and make juice. This method should never be used for this recipe."

"According to this recipe, the cost of each cup of fruit tea is about 8 to 15 yuan." "If you want to sell it, you may have to sell it for more than 30 yuan a cup, and the portion cannot be too large."

"Forget it. I can't explain it to you. Your store should have been renovated, and all the equipment should be there. You should have bought some materials as well. I'll go to Mr. Luo's house and get some fruit. I'll make you two cups according to the recipe, and you'll know what it tastes like after you try it."
.
For the sake of Ouyang's hand-made lemon tea business, the first thing Qin Huai did when he entered Yunzhong Community was not to carry his luggage home, but to ask Ouyang to help him put his luggage away, and he went straight to Luo Jun's house to buy fruit according to the recipe written by Cao Guixiang.

Cao Guixiang specifically noted on the recipe that fresh fruit should be used instead of fruit juice. The most important thing about her fruit tea is the freshness of the ingredients.

Qin Huai returned with two large bags full of fruits, despite Luo Jun's contempt.

At the moment when Qin Huai closed the door and left, Luo Jun, who had been sitting on the sofa watching TV without moving his butt, shouted at the top of his voice: "Xiao Zhang, order the fruits that Qin Huai just picked, and buy two boxes as well!"
.
Qin Huai carried two large bags of fruit and went straight to Ouyang's hand-made lemon tea shop.

It can only be said that Ouyang’s investigation in Suzhou some time ago was not without value. He learned the essence of hand-made lemon tea shop decoration - making the door front green.

It would be better if the green was dark green instead of emerald green. I don’t know what Ouyang was thinking, the green of the store is a bit too bright.

Ouyang’s hand-beaten lemon tea shop is right opposite the Yunzhong Canteen. Its name is Xiao Ou’s Hand-beaten Lemon Tea, a very simple and unpretentious name.

The store is not big. Qin Huai vaguely remembers that this store used to be a coffee shop that sold cheap coffee, ranging from 9.9 to 29.9. Chen Huihong complained to Qin Huai that the 9.9 coffee in this coffee shop was made from coffee concentrate that cost less than two yuan on Taobao. It was definitely a black-hearted merchant, so Qin Huai was told to avoid buying it.

By the way, Luo Jun also gave a bad review to the takeaway of this coffee shop. It was said that the review was very dirty. The review had more than 700 likes, all of which were from the merchant.

The merchants who have been scolded by Luo Jun like to like the negative reviews of other merchants scolded by Luo Jun.

Qin Huai couldn't understand why Luo Jun wanted to drink coffee, especially one that cost 92 yuan. He was already 9 years old and had an irregular schedule.

All I can say is that ordering all kinds of takeout and then giving bad reviews is Mr. Luo’s hobby.

There are no employees in the hand-made lemon tea shop, and Ouyang doesn't want to pay more wages before the opening. After the basic training is completed, Ouyang asked the employees to wait for notification at home/school.

It can be seen that Ouyang was very cautious in this business venture in order not to lose money.

Qin Huai took a rough look at the decoration and found it was OK. The store was not big to begin with, and apart from the operating table, there were only two small tables and four chairs in the store.

At first glance, the operating table seems very clean, and all instruments are clearly visible. It is a very normal configuration of a milk tea shop.

Ouyang is ready.

Cao Guixiang wrote four fruit tea recipes for Qin Huai, and named them according to the raw materials: strawberry fruit tea, blueberry fruit tea, mango fruit tea and coconut drink.

The main raw materials of the coconut drink are coconut milk and the famous brand of coconut juice. According to Cao Guixiang, this was because Zhang Zhiyun loved drinking this brand of coconut juice for a while. In order to let her grandson drink better, Cao Guixiang came up with this coconut drink.

Ouyang was dumbfounded when he saw the recipe. He pointed at the recipe for the coconut drink and asked, "Can this...really... be sold?"

Why does he feel like it's just drinks mixed with drinks?

"Don't worry about it, just do it." Qin Huai said calmly and started making strawberry tea.

Mash fresh strawberries, add ice to make a smoothie, add sugar, water, and then pour in a famous brand of green tea.

Ouyang was exchanging this, then that, then this and then that.

Making coconut drinks gives me the feeling of cooking when I was a kid playing house.

Ouyang studied the recipes given by Cao Guixiang carefully again and found that except for the mango fruit tea, which was very normal and made with good ingredients, including fresh pulp, fresh juice, good quality sugar, and tea brewed from specified varieties of tea, the other three recipes were not normal.

It's all about exchanging this for that, exchanging that for this.

It doesn't look like a recipe written by a master chef, but rather a recipe written by a beverage expert who is well versed in making beverages.

"Qin Huai, is this prescription really a prescription?" Ouyang was confused.

Ouyang thought that if these fruit tea recipes were good, then his innovative recipes for hand-beaten lemon tea would also be very good.

The raw materials are also very rich, with this mixed with that, and the most important thing is that he also has hand-squeezed lemons!
"Don't worry about it, just do it." Qin Huai said without raising his head, "Just tell me if the cost is high or not."

How can we afford to mix fresh fruit pulp with all kinds of expensive drinks?

The door of the shop was open when Qin Huai and Ouyang were making fruit tea. Sitting by the window of Yunzhong Canteen, looking at the street outside, Xu Tuqiang, who was holding his mobile phone and hesitating whether to send a message to Qin Huai, looked across very sadly.

Why hasn’t Master Qin come back yet?

Didn't you say you would come back after the Chinese New Year? It's already March, where are you?
They didn't go to Suzhou either, so what should the Suzhou house-buying group do?

Xu Tuqiang looked across sadly, thinking that he might be hallucinating because of his sadness. Why did he feel that the young man at the operating table in Ouyang's yet-to-open lemon tea shop across the street looked like Master Qin?

Wait, Master Qin!
Xu Tuqiang looked around calmly, and when he found that no one was paying attention to him, he stood up quietly and muttered, "Where's my cigarette?"

He left with great acting skills.

In the hand-made lemon tea shop, three kinds of premium fruit tea have been blended.

Ouyang held the coconut drink and prepared to drink it, but before drinking it, he wanted to ask what this thing was called.

Before Ouyang could open his mouth, Xu Tuqiang appeared in the store.

"Master Qin!" Xu Tuqiang's surprised voice cut through the sky, "Why didn't you tell us in the group that you were back? I have written a lot of eating experience of Four Happiness Glutinous Rice Balls, and I am waiting for you to come back and give them to you!"

"Uncle Xu, good afternoon." Qin Huai smiled and handed the strawberry tea in his hand to Xu Tuqiang, "I just got off the plane. Ouyang's hand-made lemon tea shop will open tomorrow. I came here to help him try the recipe."

"Please help taste it too."

Xu Tuqiang took the iced strawberry tea and took a big sip decisively in early March, a season when people still need to wear cotton-padded jackets.

"Good... Hey, it's really delicious." Xu Tuqiang was surprised. He was ready to praise without thinking just to show his support. But after taking the fruit tea, he didn't need to praise without thinking. It was really delicious.

Xu Tuqiang smacked his lips, temporarily retracting the compliments he had practiced throughout the New Year, and took another sip: "Xiao Ou, it's great. You learned real skills in Gusu."

Ouyang:?
Uncle Xu, are you acting or is this real? Your acting is pretty real.

Ouyang took a sip of the coconut drink.

"Fuck."

"I'm going to be rich?!"

Five minutes later, Master Qin returned like lightning and was trying out new products with Ouyang in Ouyang's Xiao Ou Hand-Made Lemon Tea Shop. The news that new and old customers were welcome to come and taste the tea spread throughout the circle of diners in Yunzhong Canteen.

The office workers were all excited and felt that life finally had hope.

Luo Jun who saw the news of Qin Huai’s return:?

Mr. Qin, are you coming to my house for a tea party at four o'clock this afternoon?
You won't come if you get some fruit, right? Then Zhang Shumei's fruit plate would be wasted.
