Rebirth and farming: the prosperous days of the eldest sister of Nongmen

Chapter 97 Peach Blossom Crisp

On the day of Tomb-sweeping Day, Ye Xing was originally waiting to discuss with Shen Xi the local conditions and customs of various places in the Dade Dynasty, but Shen Xi never mentioned the "Tale of the Taiping Universe" until they parted and went home.At that time, Ye Xing only thought that she was temporarily distracted by the matter of Zeng Chu and Lin Xuelan and forgot about it, but after the Ching Ming Festival, she waited and waited but couldn't wait, and even Qiu Ju didn't come to the shop very often.

Ye Xing thought that Shen Xi was ill, so she wrote a letter to Shen's residence to greet her.Shen Xi was a bit entangled when she saw Ye Xing's caring words as usual. Ever since she found out that her brother might like Ye Xing, she felt a little helpless to face Ye Xing.She carefully reviewed Shen She's various strange behaviors in the past few months, and the more she thought about it, the more she felt that it was certain.If it hadn't been for the elder brother to have a liking for Ye Xing, then how could such a glamorous person like him lie when he met Ye Xing in Baimaguan, and why would he be so angry with Ye Xing because of Yan Jing.

"But, but I still don't know what Ye Xing thinks. If she knows what her brother is thinking, what will she think? Is it happy, or..." Shen Xi paced back and forth in the room by herself, she quickly shook her head Denied, "No, no, no, how could you hate him? My brother's family background, appearance and conduct are all good, even if Ye Xing is a maverick and doesn't like his brother, he won't be disgusted."

Shen Xi comforted herself like this, but she was still in a mess.Ever since the lie was exposed before, Shen Xi regarded Ye Xing as a true friend. She told herself that she must never lie to Ye Xing again.So now she couldn't face Ye Xing calmly for a while, so she could only pretend to stay behind closed doors.She still decided to take some time to calm down, maybe the relationship between the two of them will become clear after a while, so she wrote a letter to Ye Xing, telling her that she is a little sleepy now, and she will go to her after a while play.

When Ye Xing saw the letter, she had no doubts about him, not to mention that people like Shen Xi were prone to spring sleepiness, even she felt very tired recently, but it was a pity that her shop did not allow her to rest.

"Myolie, the weather is getting hotter now, but there is no ice water, so it's not easy to whip the cream, but it's not easy to store it anymore, you must calculate very accurately every day, otherwise the hard-working cream will be wasted It’s gone.” Wang came back from the countryside as soon as the spring plowing was over, and the family’s cattle were also entrusted to Dazhu’s family. She found that the most popular butter in the shop was not easy to handle when the temperature was high.

Ye Xing also discovered this matter. Even though Wang and Lin are back to work in the shop now, it still takes more time and energy to maintain the sales volume of cream products than in winter.It is estimated that it will be more reluctant to wait for a while. There are indeed two houses of ice in the countryside, but Ye Xing does not want to use the ice here so early.

"Since we can't increase the supply of cream products, we should reduce the amount of sales." Buying and selling is nothing more than supply and supply. If one cannot meet the demand, then the other can only reduce to achieve a balance. Ye Xing made a decision like this.

Da Niu often chats with customers in the shop. Basically, Ye Xing knows the psychology of customers best in the shop. She said with some hesitation: "But at present, many customers come to the shop for cream cakes. The limited number of cream cake rolls will be limited again, I am afraid that customers will have opinions."

"Yeah, when the time comes, other dim sum shops in Fucheng may say that we are out of skills, and these harsh words will still affect the customers." Chun Ni thanked Ye Xing for accepting their sisters as helpers. Now the family life is much better than before, so she I am also very concerned about the shop, "Anyway, the cream just needs more time to pass, I will work hard, it doesn't matter if I work an extra hour in the shop every day, anyway, it will be dark later."

Ye Xing glanced at Chunni and was very moved, but this was not the way to go, and she couldn't do anything to force them to work regardless of their hands.So he said to several people: "I know that you really care about the shop, and I appreciate your intentions, but after this intensity goes down, do you want to use your hands again? How about this, I will think of a new product that does not require whipped cream as soon as possible, In this way, customers are attracted by the new products, so naturally we can make less cream cakes. I will also go back to Tongjia Washe to lobby for them to buy more new products.”

For the next few days, Ye Xing kept thinking about what new products could quickly gain market recognition, until she saw that there was a garden in Fucheng where the peach blossoms were in full bloom, and people in Fucheng flocked to the garden to enjoy the peach blossoms. People stop to admire every peach blossom.Many dim sum shops on the street have begun to make peach blossom cakes to meet the occasion, which can be regarded as an early season limit.

Ye Xing thought that she could also follow the trend and sell peach blossom cakes, and when she was studying on the Internet, she found that there were not only peach blossom cakes, but also various flower cakes such as crabapple cakes, daisy cakes, and four-leaf clover cakes. The spring flower crisp gift box, which also coincides with her previous flower cakes.In addition, the traditional shortbread uses lard, which has a very good shortening effect, but leaf apricot can be replaced by butter, which not only gives the shortbread a milky taste and maintains the characteristics of the shop, but also uses them to divert customers' interest in cream cakes. part of the demand.

Now that Ye Xing has decided to make it unique, she does not have the dexterous craftsmanship of many shop masters, so she can only add differences in raw materials and creativity.In addition to adding butter to the milky taste, she also deliberately uses a mixture of ordinary flour and homemade low-gluten flour to make the pastry of the pastry, which can ensure the extensibility and stickiness of the pastry during the production process. It can also make the finished product more crispy, which is better for flower crisps with more petals such as crabapple crisps.

Secondly, she is not sticking to the traditional taste of red bean paste and jujube paste for the filling, but boldly added the recently popular salted egg yolk meat floss, and also made oolong matcha, which relieves the greasy tea flavor, so that it matches the flowers in the gift box The pastry is not only rich in shape, but also has many flavors. Even if one person eats it all, it will not be too greasy.

"Why do you sell it in a gift box? What if the customers don't like the taste?" Wang didn't understand Ye Xing's difficulty in mixing up various flavors of flower crisps. She naturally thought that all of them were delicious, but Customers don't necessarily think so.

"Mother, you said that the shop on the street sells peach blossom cakes for decades, and they look and taste good. Why do they insist on buying expensive ones from our house?" Ye Xing had thought about this question before, but she It was discovered that customers did not blindly pursue her shop.Even if the milky taste and color are added, the fact that the flower cakes are more expensive than the time-honored brands will still affect part of the business, so customers will definitely only be willing to buy novelty styles like oolong matcha four-leaf clover cakes from her. The Peach Blossom Crisp of the Eight Classics is no one cares about it.

Moreover, she has to calculate the sales volume of each flavor every day to sell it separately, which adds a lot of work to her.And making gift boxes can save effort and earn more money, and supply a certain amount of single-quantity to Tongjia Washe every day, so that customers with different needs are met.And she also wanted to take advantage of this time to settle accounts. It would be best to expand the shop before the arrival of summer. By then, the cold drinks in the hall would be very popular.
