Chapter 120 Butter Cheese
Stone pot fish and wax gourd crisps are the signature dishes in old father Gu's private restaurant.

After several generations of the Gu family, it has been improved very well when it comes to Papa Gu.

Qian Hongxian has been exposed to these dishes since she was a child, and she can cook them almost with her eyes closed.

The original name of winter melon cake should be pineapple cake, but because the cost of pineapple is too high, most restaurants like to use winter melon instead.Papa Gu’s private restaurant is probably the only winter melon cake called winter melon cake instead of pineapple cake.

The most rare thing is that the winter melon cakes in Gu Laodi's restaurant are even more delicious than the real pineapple cakes sold outside.

Qian Hongxian only cooked these two dishes once for Qingyan, but she didn't expect the other party to remember them.Foodies who want to come to food always have an extraordinary memory of food.

After Qian Hongxian finished these two things, she suddenly remembered that Qingyan had said that Ji Nanjin didn't like sweets. After a moment of hesitation, she turned and walked out of the small kitchen.When I came back, I already had a bag of tea and other things in my hand.

Ji Nanjin loves tea, so there are many good tea leaves in the house, and Qian Hongxian easily obtained a pack of high-quality Tieguanyin from the warehouse.

She personally used a stone mill to grind Tieguanyin into finely ground matcha powder, and then began to make matcha cookies.

She thought of doing this because she met a businessman from the Western Regions on the way back from Juxuan Building.The other party was in a state of desperation, and was actually selling butter and dry cheese.

It is said that the other party was robbed on the way to business, and only these two things were left, which were originally intended to be exchanged for some travel expenses back home.But no one knows these things here, and they sell them very expensively, so no one buys them at all.

There was an old lady who wanted to buy it back and try something new, but she was only willing to pay two pennies.

Qian Hongxian could see that the other party was very conflicted. On the one hand, two pennies were too little, and it would not be an exaggeration to sell these things for ten taels of silver.But people here don't know these things, so even if the other party drops from five taels of silver to one tael, no one is willing to buy it.On the other hand, these things don’t last long. If they don’t sell them now, they will break down in two days, and they won’t even be able to get back two cents.

In addition, he has been here for two days, and there are very few people who even ask, let alone someone who is willing to pay for it.

Moreover, he has not eaten for two days.

Although the two pennies are a little less, it is better than throwing them away in the end.

Just when the other party was struggling and ready to agree, Qian Hongxian suddenly appeared and said with a smile, "I want these things."

The aunt didn't really want to buy it at first, but when she heard that someone wanted to grab it from her, she immediately became unhappy, grabbed the butter and cheese, stared at Qian Hongxian and said, "What's the matter with you? I like it."

Qian Hongxian didn't argue with the other party, she looked at the Western Region merchant and said, "I'll pay you two taels of silver."

When the aunt heard that she was going to buy it with two taels of silver, her face immediately changed. She looked at her as if she was insane, and finally dropped those things unwillingly and walked away cursing.

On the contrary, the businessman from the Western Regions looked at Qian Hongxian with a surprised face, and said in substandard Chinese: "Young lady, do you really want to buy it?"

Qian Hongxian took out his pockets, only to realize that he didn't even have a single copper plate on him, let alone silver, and only two boxes of snacks were left besides a hanging sheep intestines.
