Food: Random stalls, customers chase me all over the country

Chapter 517 - Purchase
The taste of any dish is determined by two factors: the quality of the chef and the quality of the ingredients.

Just as a good cook cannot cook without rice, it is also difficult for a chef to make high-quality food with poor ingredients.

Beggar's Chicken is well-known and has become a household name thanks to various TV dramas. However, not many people have actually eaten it and feel that it lives up to its name.

Ultimately it's all about money.

In the past, Xiaoshan chicken was used to make this dish. Xiaoshan chicken is one of the eight famous chickens in China. After being fattened, the meat of Xiaoshan chicken is tender and smooth, with fat and delicious fragrance that fills the whole garden. It is known as the "big red-haired castrated chicken".

But this chicken is expensive!

How much does it cost to make the same dish, Three Yellow Chicken?

I bought a Sanhuang chicken at the price of a Xiaoshan chicken. Apart from knowing that the meat is a little tougher and the aroma is a little weaker, if you are not an expert you will never know that the chickens used are different.

Some people who know how to make a fortune buy White Rock chickens and sell them as Xiaoshan chickens, which saves a lot of costs.

Anyway, the diners don’t understand what it means, so at most they will say that this beggar’s chicken is not worthy of the taste. What else can they say?

The breed of chicken is one thing, and the environment in which the chicken grows is another.

Wang Fan had studied this before. He could not think of any other good words to praise a chicken that had never been free to run in nature for less than 30 days from birth to being put into the pot, except to say that the meat was really tender.

His West Lake Vinegar Fish was sold out in just over four hours, so it was only around 5 o'clock in the afternoon.

The person who delivered the chicken to him was a very simple-looking old man, not very tall, with skin tanned by the sun. The old man was driving a Shifeng tricycle. The processed chickens were all in the bed of the tricycle, sealed in sealed bags, and there were many ice bags on the side to prevent them from spoiling.

The village where the old man lives is not too far from here, and it only takes half an hour to drive here, so these chickens are extremely fresh.

When Wang Fan touched the elastic white thighs of the chickens transported this time, he knew that these chickens must be high-quality products containing the essence of nature.

The old man who delivered the chicken had a simple look on his face and was eagerly waiting for Wang Fan to pay him.

Wang Fan was very satisfied with the quality of the chickens and said to the old man with a smile, "Uncle, you raise these chickens really well."

The old man smiled innocently: "No, no, not as good as you city people."

Wang Fan asked, "How can we raise chickens? Are you raising all these chickens by yourself?"

The old man shook his head and said, "No, the village chief said someone wanted to buy a large number of young capons, so we found all the suitable young capons in the village. There are only 174 of them in total."

Wang Fan nodded. It was indeed a good thing that he had searched for in the system mall for a long time. It was not the chickens from the farm.

The old man rubbed his hands nervously and said, "Boss...would you like to settle the remaining money?"

When Wang Fan ordered the product in the mall, he paid a deposit of 1000 yuan, so the old man wanted the balance.

The large RV quietly standing behind Wang Fan put a lot of pressure on the old man, and his small three-wheeled motorcycle parked beside him felt ashamed.

Wang Fan said readily, "You ordered it yesterday at 12 yuan per pound, right?"

The old man quickly responded: "Yes, 12 yuan!"

This price is really high for them. A normal chicken seller would be considered to have a change of heart if he gave 6 yuan. This refers to the chickens that have been cleaned.

Wang Fan picked up a few chickens and weighed them, estimating that each one weighed about 1.78 jin (5.67 kg), with the fluctuation not too big.

The old man's heart nearly jumped into his throat when he saw Wang Fan's actions. This routine was too familiar. Those chicken vendors would complain about the chickens after picking them up, and then finally lower the price to make a small difference. But Wang Fan would never do such a thing.

People in his hometown don't earn much anyway, and he won't become the richest man overnight if he bets a few dollars. Looking at the old man's simple and worried face, Wang Fan smiled and said, "How about this, let's save some trouble. These chickens seem to be about the same size, so how about we settle for 30 yuan each?"

"Absolutely not, boss! These chickens are the lifeblood of us villagers. The price is already very low. You must not… huh?"

The old man was just about to start crying as he always did to the chicken vendor, but suddenly he realized something seemed wrong.

"Boss, how much do you want?" the old man asked Wang Fan uncertainly.

"30 each."

"30 each?!"

Although the old man has not been to school for many years, he can still understand this kind of elementary school arithmetic problems.

12 yuan per pound. These chickens were weighed before they were sold out. The heaviest one was only 21 pound, which means it would be worth a little over 9 yuan at most. This way, you can make at least yuan more from each chicken, which is enough to buy more than half a pound!

"Boss, you are kidding me, right?"

The old man couldn't believe his ears.

After selling things for so many years, this was the first time he encountered a boss who did not bargain but instead raised the price.

Wang Fan shook his head: "No kidding, the quality of these chickens is very good, I am very satisfied."

When buying things in the system mall, there will generally be discounts if you buy more than 100 kilograms. These chickens were originally 13 yuan, and the more you buy, the cheaper it will be one yuan.

If it was a professional chicken farm, Wang Fan would not give up the profit, but since he bought it directly from such a fellow villager, Wang Fan felt that he could not eat up the profit no matter what.

After all, it is much easier for me to make money than these fellow villagers.

But he can't give too much, otherwise the price will have to be high when selling. If the price is too low, the system will not accept it.

"There are 174 chickens in total, which costs 5220 yuan. After deducting the 1000 yuan I paid, there is still 4220 yuan left. Here's the money, please count it."

Wang Fan has the habit of carrying cash in the car. After all, he has to deal with emergencies. Some people may not bring their mobile phones and can only pay with cash. If he doesn't accept it, he will be breaking the law.

The old man rubbed his hands hard on his pants before taking the small stack of brand new banknotes.

A simple smile appeared on his honest face, and the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes were so piled up that his eyes were almost invisible.

"Boss, if you want anything else, we have it all here. Wild mushrooms, day lilies, wax gourds, sea buckthorns, jujubes, pheasant eggs, and fresh vegetables. If you need anything, just give me a call and I'll find them for you in our entire village!"

It was rare to meet such a generous boss, so the old man began to actively promote the village's local specialties.

Not to mention, there are actually a few things that Wang Fan is quite interested in. He needs sea buckthorn, wild mushrooms, fresh vegetables and pheasant eggs.

Since the quality of the chicken is so good, the eggs laid by the hens must be of good quality. Although pheasant eggs may not be more nutritious than ordinary eggs, the aroma and color of the eggs are definitely incomparable to ordinary eggs.

Add some lard and some green onions and fry them. The delicious taste will make anyone addicted to it.
