Song Tan Jishi

Chapter 1356 1356. Snow Meringue and Strawberry

The sour smell from Zhang Yanping almost filled the whole kitchen, and with his resentment, Lu Chuan's first pot of test product failed.

The seventh cousin was also quite interested in desserts, and at this moment he stood by and pointed out: "After the mugwort juice was mixed with the flour, the effect of putting it into the oven was not good... the bitter taste was too strong."

"Yeah." Lu Chuan also stared at the failed light olive green puff crisp shell and shook his head: "This color is not good-looking, Qiao Qiao will definitely not like it, I will try another one."

Only Zhang Yanping was happy: "Oh! How come this dessert failed? What a pity! Otherwise, you can help carry bamboo shoots, and we can drink milk tea."

Hmph, you are biased!

Lu Chuan remained calm: "It doesn't matter. There will be a failure rate when trying out new products. By the way, I bought two sets of homestay management systems. Brother Yanping, if you have so much free time, why don't I return one set?"

"Manual management is not difficult."

For their small homestay, the price of customized management system is very cheap, but no matter how cheap it is, it is not something that the two brothers who were penniless before can afford.

So Zhang Yanping quickly knelt down: "What are you talking about, master! I'm afraid you don't have enough materials. What else do you need? I'll go prepare it now!"

Seventh cousin laughed: "Tsk! Zhang Yanping, you are so tall and strong for nothing."

Looking at the mighty and majestic man who dared not provoke him easily, who would have thought he was just an embroidered pillow?

Zhang Yanping was flexible: "Seventh cousin, you don't understand. We young people today are very sensible."

While they were talking and laughing, Lu Chuan thought of the new product again, so he asked: "I remember that the strawberries in Yanran's experimental field on the mountain should be a little ripe. If you are free, can you help me get a small basket?"

Every day when he took a walk to the mountain, he could see scattered red fruits exposed in the fenced strawberry field. Not to mention that Yanran and others were so excited that they posted tracking records on WeChat Moments every day...

The day before yesterday, he specially picked 10 for everyone to taste - not stingy, but it's not the season yet, and there are not many ripe ones.

It's a big piece of land, and I only picked a few after turning it over and over.

It's been a few days, there should be more, right?

Zhang Yanping's eyes glared, it seems that he is not going to pick strawberries, but a gang fight: "Do you know how much they cherish their strawberries?"

Just like Tian Tian and others transplanted strawberries scientifically, each strawberry is numbered! Now that he asked for a small basket, Yanran and the others would definitely not refuse, but Zhang Yanping would probably be nagged all day!

Lu Chuan was helpless: "There is not much fruit at home now, I plan to make a snowy Mei Niang, the taste of strawberry and cream will be better... Especially the quality of the strawberries they grow is not bad - I still have two taels of old tea, can you help ask them if they want to change it?"

The tea was bought from Song Tan last year, but it was not finished. Now to take away someone's favorite, naturally there is a price to pay.

Zhang Yanping straightened his chest instantly: "You should have told me earlier that you have tea! Don't worry, it's fine."

He went out in style, found a big basket in the yard and went up the mountain!

After all, although strawberries are good, they are not as good as tea!

Zhang Yanping was right!

When he handed out the huge basket in front of him, Yan Ran's eyes seemed to be about to spit fire:

"No, no! If you want to eat, I'll pick 10 for you, no more!"

"I watched these strawberries like I was watching a child until they bore fruit. It was not easy. Why not make desserts instead!"

This kind of seasonal and ripe open-air strawberries tastes better than greenhouse strawberries. In addition, they use seedlings cultivated by Song Tan. They have tasted the first batch of mature ones, and they taste so good!

Although they are slightly worse than those grown by Song Tan last winter, they can be said to be the leader in the current strawberry market!

The first batch of this good stuff will be sent out for inspection, and then the seeds will be kept in batches, and then at Tian Tian's house farther away, they will be propagated by vines and germinated by seeds, and then observed for 3 to 5 years to see if their characteristics and advantages are stable after being away from the Feng Shui treasure land of the old Song family...

In short!

With these, their graduate students can be stable, but whether they will be masters or doctors in three to five years depends on these!

Zhang Yanping smiled triumphantly and held out two fingers.

Yanran: "..."

After a moment, she hesitated and said, "Yeah!"

"Yeah is not okay. Don't try to be cute. You look really inappropriate."

Zhang Yanping was furious: "I'm talking business with you. Why are you attacking my appearance?! I'm asking you if you want to exchange two taels of tea!"

I'm really angry. Not only do I have no status in the old Song family, but I also have no status in front of these external employees? !

But Yanran blinked and smiled like a mountain flower in an instant: "Look, Manager Zhang, you are really something. Strawberries are grown for everyone to taste. Why are you so polite? Is it really two taels of tea? From Boss Song's home?"

Zhang Yanping sneered. Seeing through this hypocritical world, contemporary young people are too sensible.

But thinking that Lu Chuan was still waiting at the foot of the mountain, he said "um": "It's our tea, but it's last year's old tea. Two taels for a basket. If you are willing to exchange, help pick it."

Oh!

What does old tea mean? The law does not stipulate that green tea cannot be kept for the second year! Anyway, Yan Ran has quickly summoned two classmates:

"Two taels of tea leaves for a basket of strawberries. The three of us get 33 grams each on average, and the extra gram belongs to me - after all, I'm the first one to negotiate business!"

"How is it? Is it okay? If it's okay, come down and pick them!"

Good guy!

Qi Lin and Tang Xiaodong put on their notebooks in an instant - "I'm coming!"

Although strawberries are very precious, they have a whole field, and there will be a steady supply of them that will mature later. And the current value of tea leaves is too high for them to afford with their wages. If they want to have it, they can only wait until the holidays to get a little bit.

In short, this business is not a loss!

It's just that extra gram, oh, it hurts! Doesn't Yanran know how to negotiate the price? He should ask for two more grams.

At the foot of the mountain, Lu Chuan had already mixed the dark green mugwort juice into the low-gluten flour and glutinous rice flour, and then carefully weighed the corn starch, milk, and sugar...

After the dough was mixed evenly, the color showed a beautiful light green. The seventh cousin came over to take a look and nodded:

"Not bad, much better than the paste shell just now-this one needs to be steamed, right?"

"Yes," Lu Chuan nodded: "After steaming, you have to rub the butter into it, so that it will taste smooth and sweet, and the special bitterness of the mugwort will not be so irritating."

However, when the steamer was set up, Zhang Yanping, who went to pick strawberries, had not returned yet.

Lu Chuan couldn't help wondering: "It's just a small basket, twenty or thirty are enough, haven't you picked them all?"
