Chapter 66 Sweet potato noodles and 4-wheel food truck
Sweet potato starch is an easy vegetable and food. When rice and noodles are not available, you can just use it as a staple food and still be satisfied. When you have rice noodles, add some sauerkraut and simmer it, and it becomes another dish.
If it is used to make bone soup or cooked with fatty meat, it will be extremely delicious!
For dinner that day, Shen Dongsu conquered everyone in the Shen family with a pot of pork stewed with vermicelli.
The next day, Mr. Jiang cooked another pot of vermicelli stewed with pickled cabbage and tofu for the workers to eat. The workers were all very happy after eating it, and no one believed that it was made from sweet potatoes.
Ayuan and Damai discussed whether they should sell dry sweet potato flour directly? Or are the food stalls selling dishes made from sweet potato flour?
At this time, Shen Dongsu gathered the ingredients for hot and sour rice noodles, sauerkraut, fried soybeans, Sichuan peppercorns, and dogwood instead of chili peppers, and cooked a bowl for each of several people.
Several patients could not eat it, and they could only swallow their saliva when they smelled the fresh, fragrant, numbing and spicy taste. Grandpa Shen stared at Dong Su for the first time: "I can't eat it either?"
Shen Dongsu smiled flatteringly and said, "Sir, you haven't recovered from your illness yet, so you can't eat heavy food. When you get better, my granddaughter will cook you a bowl every day."
The big fish here has finished a bowl of noodles, sweating profusely from eating, and praised: "In the cold autumn and winter, eating this is so delicious, my palms are sweating after eating!"
Shen Dongsu analyzed it carefully with A Yuan and Damai. First of all, sweet potato vermicelli cannot be sold directly. It is a new ingredient that no one has eaten before and no one will buy it.
Besides, mass production is currently not possible, and the quantity produced is limited, so it is not cost-effective to sell fans directly.
You can't make dishes and sell them. There are a lot of things to buy to make dishes, and there is no shop. No one wants to eat on the roadside with a bowl in this cold weather.
The snack hot and sour noodles are different. It is simple to prepare, quick to cook, hot soup and hot noodles, and it is not too cold for customers to eat on the roadside.
Shen Dongsu drew a small hand-pushed dining cart and asked Da Yu and Father Shen to try making it.
Then he said to A Yuan and Damai: "My eldest aunt and my second aunt will definitely not let you two go out on the street alone. You can discuss with them that when there is no farm work in autumn and winter, why not mother and daughter go out on the street to sell snacks together."
I am responsible for providing the noodles and side dishes, and you are responsible for selling them, and the profits will be split 50-50. "
Damai said worriedly: "What if we don't sell it and we lose money?"
Shen Dongsu smiled and said: "Then let's eat it ourselves! We don't have much capital, how much can we lose?"
Damai immediately said happily: "Then there is no need to discuss with my mother, Dalian and I will run the stall together."
Shen Dongsu shook his head: "No, you must be accompanied by an adult. It is not safe for girls to go out alone."
Mrs. Jiang hurriedly asked: "Then I will also set up a stall, and I will set up a stall near Zhongyang Academy." She felt that setting up a stall would be more profitable.
Shen Dongsu shook his head and said, "You have to make powder at home, I'm busy with other things."
Several people calculated how much a bowl of vermicelli should be sold for. Shen Dongsu calculated the account carefully. Three pounds of sweet potatoes can produce one pound of vermicelli, and one pound of vermicelli can produce four bowls of vermicelli.
In other words, the cost of four bowls of noodles is one penny. Adding ingredients, firewood, labor, and losses, you can make money by selling a bowl of pure noodles for two pence.
Don't think the price is too low. In this small town, you can eat a big bowl of noodles for two cents, and an ordinary worker only earns about eight cents a day.
More people's choice when eating out is to buy a mud cake for a penny and unlimited tea...
“Sold together with some braised eggs, braised tofu, and braised gluten, it costs two cents. If you add side dishes, you’ll pay extra.
Ordinary farmers are reluctant to add side dishes, but guests such as young students and salesmen are still willing to add an egg. "
Ayuan and Damai listened carefully to Shen Dongsu's talk about business, and became more and more interested in it. In the past, they could only do needlework at home in autumn and winter.
When the weather gets colder, my hands are too cold to stretch out, so I eat two thin porridges a day.
Except for the young and strong people like Da Yu and Lin Zhong, who would go to the mountains and forests to catch some wild animals or collect firewood, the others tried not to move as much as possible to save energy.
There were no thick clothes to go out, no firewood for heating, and no way to make money. Not to mention making money, if the Shen family builds a house, many villagers will immediately be willing to work as laborers.
Because working as a laborer can save food for the family. In winter, whenever there is work in any wealthy household, people are eager to help out.
If this sweet potato flour can really be sold, it doesn't matter how much money they make, as long as they can earn clothes and food for their family for the winter, A Yuan and Damai will feel it is worth it.
At this time, Big Fish came over and asked Shen Dongsu for advice: "Uncle said that a small car can be built, just the four wheels at the bottom. He has never built one or seen it before."
Shen Dongsu asked Jiang and her two cousins to continue making sweet potato noodles. If they didn't have enough sweet potatoes, they would go to the village to buy them.
She went to help Father Shen and Dayu make the wheels for the small dining cart, and then she discovered that when she explained how to make four small wheels, not only Father Shen and Dayu were interested, but even Jia Shiba also listened very seriously.
He even made a set of small wheels with his own hands. He asked Shen Dongsu seriously: "Can I make these wheels bigger and put them on a big truck?"
Shen Dongsu thought for a while and said: "The current material is not up to standard, and the problem of the rotating shaft is not easy to solve. Do you want to carry people or goods with this big car?"
In fact, it is possible. It just requires testing and improving materials in many aspects. If you know people who are in the carriage and horse industry, you can let them test it. One day, you can build a four-wheeled vehicle! "
Jia Shiba thought for a moment and asked, "If it's transporting things, shouldn't the requirements be lower?"
Shen Dongsu turned over the drawings, took out the charcoal pen he was wearing, and quickly drew a wheelbarrow carrying the load:
"This car carries better things. It is light, stable and does not consume physical energy. It can go on any road, even over mountains and ridges!"
Jia Shiba looked at her with intense eyes, and asked solemnly: "Miss Shen has lived in the countryside for a long time, why does she know about this car-making thing?"
Shen Dongsu was shocked, it was over, and he even forgot to hide his clumsiness! Can we say that this was also taught by the white-bearded old miracle doctor?
At this moment, Father Shen laughed and said, "Dong Su has watched me do carpentry since she was a child, and I have also driven a cart. This kid is smart. Maybe he has thought of it after seeing too much!"
Shen Dong looked at Father Shen steadily, but saw that he was lowering his head to polish the wood and never raised his head to look at her.
Jia Shiba looked at Shen Dongsu: "Is that so?"
Shen Dongsu smiled dryly and nodded: "Yes! I often hear my father complain that the country roads are narrow and the cart cannot be pulled to the fields.
At that time, I thought, it would be great if there was a wheelbarrow that could pull goods. After collecting the grain, I wouldn’t have to carry it back home.
In the past, my family didn’t have the conditions, so no one listened to my ideas, and I didn’t have the materials to build them, so I never said anything. "
Jia Shiba then put away the blueprint and whispered to her: "If this car turns out to be as good as you said, I will definitely thank you!"
Shen Dongsu smiled and said: "You don't need to thank me too much, just give me one as a gift. You have helped me so much, just think of it as a thank you gift from me alone!"
