Chapter 563: Tryout
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
There were all kinds of standard and innovative mixtures for bean products. All chefs could come up with all kinds of new dishes as long as they thought about them carefully.
But what Qiao Xuan told them were just ordinary ways of making those dishes.
Roasted chicken nuggets with yuba, stir-fried dried bean curd with celery and vegetables, shredded fried bean curd in cold sauce, glutinous rice with diced bacon stuffed with tofu puffs, and one of these bean products for a huge mixture with chili.
Those bean products would sell well when they were cooked with other side ingredients. Meat could be added too, but the price might be a bit too high for the common civilians to afford.
So, vegetables as side dishes for the wok should leave some s.p.a.ce for the original taste to show.
Also, dishes with meat would have a better taste.
Tofu could be good either with vegetables or with meat, thus being really popular.
The two daughter-in-laws of the Yan Family got busy. They killed chicken, soaked yubas and washed the smoked meat, getting ready to cook lunch.
Shao Yunduan and Qiao Xuan had a casual conversation and Ms. Yan showed them around the village. Soon, it was time for lunch.
When the dishes were done, they were served warm to the table. Mr. Yan asked the two guests to take the seat, followed by his own family.
The dishes looked really good, and the smell was so appealing, that the Yan Family had already understood what Qiao Xuan meant.
Mr. Yan tasted the cold dish first while he asked the others to start with the dishes. He was taken aback when he took the first bite. It was soft and chewy, and the more he chewed, the better it became. It had an attractive bean fragrance, which was completely different from tofu.
The dried tofu, yuba and puffs all had different textures when cooked with vegetables or meat. They would be equally popular as tofu itself.
Moreover, it could be preserved longer than tofu, especially the sun dried yuba and cream skin.
The three men of the Yan Family exchanged an excited look between themselves. This was wonderful.
It was such a pie from the sky! Everyone would want to have this business for themselves.
With these bean products, the Yan Family should be able to make a huge progress in their business!
The Yan Family would be able to get rich very soon!
“Please, let’s eat first. Help yourself, we can talk about business after we are done with the food!”
“Okay, Uncle Yan.”
Shao Yunduan and Qiao Xuan understood that the Yan Family was quite willing to take the offer.
After lunch, Mr. Yan and the two sons of the Yan Family asked Shao Yunduan and Qiao Xuan to take their seats and started to discuss this business vividly.
The couple would pa.s.s on the craftsmanship to the Yan Family without concealing anything, but they wanted 30 percent of the profits after 30 percent of the capital. They promised not to get involved with other affairs, which would be under the Yan Family alone. That was finally agreed between the two parties.
They knew clearly how precious the craftsmanship was, and when the couple offered 30 percent of the profits whilst offering 30 percent of the capital, the
couple did not take any advantage in the deal.
The Yan Family had years of experience in making tofu with good quality and reputation, so they had many old clients who were willing to buy stuff from them. They had acc.u.mulated a lot of money.
So, they decided to invest 100 liang, with the couple offering 30 whilst they put in 70.
70 liang was enough for the Yan Family, and comprised almost all the savings they had..
