Time flies so fast, in the blink of an eye, Chen Zhaozhao has been back for half a month.
The weather is getting colder and colder, and everyone is wearing sweaters.
The chili sauce in the village has been produced and the first batch will be ready to taste in two days.
A total of 3,500 kilograms of chili peppers were divided into five batches. Because of the addition of ginger and garlic, the chili sauce has some moisture.
The final weight of the chili sauce was more than 4,300 kilograms.
In this way, you end up making more money than originally expected.
With the money each family has pooled together, there will definitely be some left over to buy things, but you still have to pay for shipping costs, so it can basically be used up.
There are five batches of chili sauce, the first three batches are made one day apart, and the last two batches are made five days apart.
As long as the first batch tastes good, the rest can be shipped together.
The collective production of chili sauce is over, and everyone's busy focus is on the vegetable plot.
However, the vegetable plot area is limited and does not require too many people to work. Each family can work on it one person per day.
Of course, you don’t have to go. Others will be busy preparing for the winter.
Chen Zhaozhao was busy in the backyard today. The vegetables grown in the backyard were all out of season.
The strawberries no longer bear fruit and have entered the growing stage, so she sealed the strawberries and simply built a greenhouse.
In this way, during the Chinese New Year, you can use the name of the greenhouse to eat strawberries all season long.
The vegetable plot is planted with carrots, celery, cabbage, and coriander that we eat, and the rest of the plot is planted with white radish.
This winter, she plans to make pickled radishes to sell.
The fungus was already completely out of season, so Chen Zhaozhao dug a three-square-meter cellar at the foot of the hill in his backyard and made three one-meter-long bags of shiitake mushrooms to grow shiitake mushrooms.
As for the peppers in the front yard, I can still pick them once.
"Mom, your letter." Chen Xiaoni ran in from outside.
Followed by Chen Damei, "It was just delivered."
"Okay." Chen Zhaozhao washed his hands, kissed Chen Xiaoni's little head, took the letter and read it, it was from Fang Dongchao.
She frowned slightly and quickly opened it.
Reading the contents of the letter, she frowned more and more.
"What's wrong?" Chen Ermei asked.
"Something happened at the provincial capital food factory, but..." Chen Zhaozhao folded the letter and smiled, "It's okay. You guys go ahead and I'll answer the letter."
Fang Dongchao said in the letter that they originally agreed with the meat factory to buy only pork belly.
But because people from the second factory interfered.
The meat joint factory said that if they want to buy pork belly, they have to buy the pigs together.
They reported to their superiors that it was useless to negotiate with the meat processing factory. If they did not want pigs in the water, the meat processing factory would not provide them with pork.
Another thing is that there are still more than two months to celebrate the New Year, and the supply of pork belly is insufficient. The meat factory may reduce the supply or replace it with lean meat. I asked her if there is any other way to keep the production line from stopping.
People these days like fat meat, and lean meat will become processed meat.
But lean meat is not a big deal, the main thing is pig offal, including pork liver, pork loin, pig heart, pig lung, pig intestines and pig belly.
In later generations, if they were sold separately, they would be quite expensive.
But now, no one knows how to do these stinky things, and most people despise them.
Originally, the pig waste processed by the meat processing factory was sold at a low price to the fertilizer factory to be used as fertilizer or to feed fish. Now it is deliberately difficult to require the factory to buy it all.
They also raised the price by half a millimeter. If the factory sells it again, it will lose money.
Moreover, the fertilizer factory will find trouble and lower prices for sure.
You will lose more this way.
But if you don't sell it, you will suffer even more losses if it rots in your hands, and it will be troublesome to deal with it if it rots.
The second factory's alliance with the fertilizer factory is not just too much money, but it's just disgusting.
They were sure that a factory would resell the pigs to a fertilizer factory, so that the fertilizer factory would make a profit.
A little at a time, it adds up.
This was considered a gift from the second factory to the fertilizer factory, and both families were disgusted by Fang Dongchao.
Fang Dongchao was very angry about this, because the price increase was very low and did not need to be reported. The meat factory decided on its own.
Even if Fang Dong reported it to his superiors, because the matter was not serious, the meat factory's behavior was not considered a violation and would not be accepted.
Fang Dongchao had no choice but to ask Chen Zhaozhao for help.
Chen Zhaozhao returned to the room and wrote directly to reply.
Pig offal is produced and sold in factories, and of course brine is the most suitable.
Pig waste has a strong smell. If you want to make it delicious, it is very important to wash it well.
With the help of her spiritual spring, the odor can definitely be washed away, plus her formula.
Everyone dislikes the stinky pig's urine, and if it is stewed out, it will definitely make the kid next door cry.
Although Fang Dongchao did not say in the letter how much he paid for the pig offal, the meat factory and the fertilizer factory wear the same pants, so the price that the meat factory sells at a low price must be really low.
If you bake it according to her recipe and sell it, you will definitely make a lot of money.
The people in the second factory thought that the first factory would suffer a huge and disgusting loss and took advantage of the fertilizer factory.
When they see it, will they be so angry that they become deformed?
Chen Zhaozhao wrote eloquently in the letter, emphasizing the cleaning of pig waste.
In order to reduce costs, her cleaning method is to wash with her special white vinegar, and then soak and clean with well water from the factory.
In this way, she can make money by selling a wave of white vinegar.
This money is much easier to make than chili sauce.
Chen Zhaozhao wrote the letter happily.
As for the lean meat, of course it is pressed into minced meat to make canned luncheon meat, but the completely lean meat will be dryer, so some pork belly that is too fat happens to be cut out and pressed together.
If there is too little lean meat, it is not cost-effective to make luncheon meat alone. You can process the lean meat separately and make lean braised pork separately.
The lean meat processed by her method will be meatless and delicious after braised.
The last problem is the problem after the lack of meat.
Chen Zhaozhao thought about it carefully and decided that considering the situation in Southwest China, it would be best to make canned braised tofu.
After finishing the letter, she added the marinade recipe.
When I mailed the letter the next day, I also mailed a small bottle of her special white vinegar.
In fact, I bought half a pound of ordinary white vinegar, added one third of it to well water, and added two drops of Lingquan to make one pound of special white vinegar.
She had bought pig waste before and knew how much spiritual spring water was needed to clean it just right.
Fang Dong looked forward to the stars and the moon, and finally received a reply four days after the letter was sent.
He is still negotiating with the meat processing factory, and he has not accepted the pigs being put into the water, so he has stopped working for a few days.
After all, there is no way to deal with the pigs when they are taken back from the water, which is a big trouble.
He wanted to wait and see if Chen Zhaozhao could do anything, but there was really no way, so he had no choice but to endure this disgusting situation.
When he saw Chen Zhaozhao's reply, he was very happy, even excited.
But after getting excited, he began to question and worry again. Is it really delicious to marinate pig offal?
He immediately asked someone to buy a pig and put it in the water, and then he personally dealt with it according to the method Chen Zhaozhao said.
Looking at the pig being cooked in the pot, smelling the smell of braised food in the air, it is really fragrant and has no peculiar smell.
He knew that this would definitely happen.
Chen Zhaozhao is indeed reliable.
After the pig was marinated, he immediately tasted it and was moved by the delicious taste.
He never imagined that smelly pig waste could be so delicious.
After he tasted it, he quickly called others to try it, and the comments they received were all very delicious.
Fang Dongchao tried the recipe and went to the meat factory to negotiate the next day.
"Oh, you finally agreed, compromised?" Director Li of the Meat Factory asked with a sinister smile.
"What will happen if you don't agree?" Fang Dongchao said pretending to be angry.
"Don't be like this, Factory Director Fang, you look like you're being bullied by us."
"Stop talking nonsense and sign the contract."
"No need, we are all old acquaintances. It will be fine if we have the documents issued by the above."
"After what happened this time, do you think just one file will be enough?"
The previous time I let them take advantage of the loopholes in the documents.
This time, he will write the contract well and never let them take advantage of any loopholes.
Director Li smiled and stopped talking. He looked at the contract drafted by Fang Dongchao. There was nothing wrong with it. He signed and stamped it coolly and said...
