Chapter 361 Feng Daniu's return and the arrangement of chickens and ducks
Li Youran was thinking about something in the office, and the sound of saw blades coming from the corridor was very harsh.
He stood up, opened the door and went out to take a look.
I saw several workers in the corridor cutting and laying floor tiles. There was cement and sand everywhere on the floor. About two-thirds of the paving work was completed.
These workers are construction workers from a decoration company hired by the logistics department. After a month of busy work, the VIP room and corridor decoration project is almost complete.
Li Youran stepped on the wooden board specially designed for walking and came to the sun room. A clerk from the logistics department was inspecting the supervisor. When he saw him, he quickly said hello.
Li Youran nodded in response, and then observed this new VIP private room of more than 20 square meters. The floor was covered with dark red carpets, covered with protective pads, and the walls were made of dark wood veneer, with soft wallpaper and wooden grids.
There are grilles, flower-edge windows, and a chandelier with a bronze lamp stand and a marble cover hanging from the middle of the ceiling. The overall look is somewhat antique.
However, the decoration style of the private room is set as modern Chinese style, which is naturally not as complicated as pure classical Chinese style. After the completion, a few Chinese paintings will be hung on the wall, and the calligraphy will come alive.
The work in the room has been generally completed, and two decoration painters are doing partial repair work.
Li Youran checked several details in the room. The joints were smooth and tight, and the construction quality was good. He nodded with satisfaction. It seemed that the supervisor sent by the logistics department was very responsible.
He has also considered the use of VIP private rooms a few days ago. Since the room is larger, it can accommodate more guests. It is easy to host a banquet for ten or twelve people.
The decoration is also more upscale than the previous four private rooms of plum, orchid, bamboo and chrysanthemum.
So, in addition to being used as a mobile reserved venue, can the level of banquets here be further improved? For example, beyond the current highest-end Class A banquets.
After such a long time in business, he has a deeper understanding of the high-end consumer market.
In the current social consumption structure with great disparity between the rich and the poor, the more high-quality or even high-quality luxury goods, the more people will support them and flock to them. As long as the goods and services you provide are of high quality, no matter how high the price is, you don't have to worry about the problem of being high-end.
High-end sports cars worth tens of millions of dollars each, luxury yachts worth tens or even hundreds of millions of dollars, private business jets, etc. still have corresponding consumer groups to pay for them. And they seem not to be affected by the economic recession at all.
In view of this, you can be a little more courageous. Imagine that in addition to anchovies, mandarin fish, crabs and other ingredients, porcini, morels, copri mushrooms and other high-end edible fungi are also included in the dishes. Well, maybe in the future
There is a strong addition of matsutake.
As for the meat, all green meat will be purchased from the countryside by Feng Daniu.
You can also provide some home-grown special fruit compotes or Cuifeng tea at the banquet.
Think about it again, yes, when making soup, add a small amount of space stalactite water to the space stream water to make the soup more delicious.
Putting these factors together, a VIP banquet for ten or twelve people is completely different from a Class A banquet.
Li Youran leaned against the window and fell into deep thought.
When the man from the logistics department who oversaw the work saw this, he didn't dare to disturb him and went out to the corridor to watch the bricks being laid.
At this time, a call from Uncle Qi interrupted Li Youran's meditation. He said that Feng Daniu, who was sent to the countryside to collect goods, had driven back. Li Youran looked at the time and saw that it was close to five o'clock in the afternoon. So he went out and went straight downstairs to the backyard.
go.
When Leopard Ball saw him, he hurriedly swung his head and tail to greet him. Li Youran patted its head and let it follow behind.
The gate to the backyard was open, and the car was parked outside the yard without coming in. Uncle Qi was standing in front of the truck, discussing something with Feng Daniu.
"Daniu, you're back. Did your trip go well?" Li Youran walked over to say hello.
"Oh, boss. Everything went smoothly this time. Uncle Tian Gui helped a lot." Feng Daniu responded.
Li Youran looked towards the car. The chicken cages piled up in the car were covered with colorful strips of cloth. The insides could not be seen. They were probably used to block the wind on the road.
"Boss, this time we collected a total of 423 chickens, 31 ducks, two goats, and 637 pounds of eggs. There is nothing we can do about the native pigs. They still have to keep them.
We are eating it during the Chinese New Year." Feng Daniu reported the results.
"Yes, that's a lot. Thank you for your hard work, Daniu. Please hand over the things and go to rest early." Li Youran looked at Feng Daniu's dusty look and said with concern.
"Hey, it's not hard. I have to get these goods into the warehouse first. Leaving them outside won't work." Feng Daniu said, lifting a corner of the colorful striped cloth to see what was going on inside.
"However, our backyard is small and the house is not enough. We made some plans and rented a new warehouse in the east warehouse area to temporarily house these chickens and ducks." Uncle Qi explained to Li Youran.
"That's it, that's fine, let's go and have a look together." Li Youran nodded in approval.
These chickens and ducks cannot be slaughtered immediately after they are brought back. They must be raised for a few days first, and fed with space water, special vegetables, bread crumbs and other foods, which can further improve their health and meat quality.
Since Xiao Xia and others from the logistics department were out driving, Uncle Qi asked a few kitchen guys to help.
Chef Liu, the manager of the private restaurant, came over after hearing the news, so everyone went to the warehouse together, and Leopard Ball naturally followed him.
The warehouse is located in the warehousing and logistics area not far to the east of Baozi Pu. The truck slowly drove to the door of the warehouse and stopped. After Uncle Qi took out the key and opened the door, the guys started unloading the goods and moving them inside. Feng Daniu directed
They are stacked in order against the interior wall.
The chickens and ducks in the cage seemed to be in good condition, and all of them were in good spirits. It was probably because they were fed special water before departure.
Living animals are not like the cold fresh meat that is usually purchased. They need to be eaten, drank, and cared for, which is quite troublesome to take care of. You have to assign someone to take charge of this matter.
It would be easier to kill them all, clean them up and put them in the freezer, but after all, the meat is not as delicious as the fresh ones.
Chef Liu looked carefully at the chickens and ducks in the cage, nodding his head with a satisfied look on his face.
While the guys were busy working, Li Youran, Uncle Qi, and Chef Liu held an impromptu meeting in the warehouse to discuss the whereabouts of the new poultry.
Chef Liu said that since the establishment of the private restaurant, the ingredients used to support the store are basically fish, shrimp and special vegetables, but the meat is much worse. Like the ingredients used in the bun shop, they are all purchased from the market by the logistics department.
Cold fresh beef, pork, etc.
Now with these chickens and ducks, the quality of related dishes can be further improved, and the private restaurant can continue to consolidate its golden name in the high-end catering industry in Tianhai City.
Therefore, this batch of goods should be reserved for private restaurants.
Uncle Qi thought for a while and agreed with Chef Liu.
He said that the steamed bun shop makes large quantities of steamed buns every day. It consumes a lot of raw materials, and the number of chickens and ducks is limited, which cannot meet the requirements. Moreover, the current seven kinds of steamed bun products only have ingredients, and the difference in taste is not divided into high and low grades.
.Even if these green meats are used in a small amount of steamed buns, the significance is not obvious.
In fact, Baozi Shop is positioned in the mid-range market, and the quality of its current products is sufficient.
Li Youran thought about it for a while and felt that what the two of them said made sense.
Therefore, the meeting made a decision. These local products will all be supplied to private restaurants. They will be conditioned for a period of time with special water and special food, and then slaughtered as needed to ensure the freshness and high quality of the raw materials.
"Baa. Baa." "Woof! Woof!"
The three of them had just finished their discussion when they heard dogs barking and sheep barking outside.
Li Youran hurried out. After taking a closer look, it turned out that the leopard ball was tied to a billy goat tied to the iron fence.
The leopard ball grinned, arched its body in a striking posture, and roared from its throat; the goat did not hesitate, opened its frame, fastened its feet to the ground, lowered its head and pointed a pair of horns at the wolfdog who wanted to do something wrong.
"Leopard Ball, you are naughty again. This is not a roe deer. Just give it a horn and you will be at ease." Li Youran scolded.
Since I went camping in Lingfeng Mountain and hunted twice, Leopard Ball's wildness has increased a lot, and he can easily treat other animals as prey when he sees them.
Leopard Ball whimpered when he heard this and gave up his offensive state. The man quickly untied the goat's rope and led it into the warehouse.
"Hey, Leopard Ball's attack is very strong now." Uncle Qi said a little worriedly.
"It's okay, it's just that the last time I took him out for hunting, he got addicted to it. He will stop after a while." Li Youran comforted him.
"These two goats are quite good. I think they were raised by farmers and grew up eating grass. They should weigh about forty or fifty kilograms each." Chef Liu said and walked out of the warehouse.
"That's for sure. I will go down this time and tell them that no matter what kind of poultry or livestock they are, they will not eat finished feed." Feng Daniu added at the side.
"The mutton in this portion is the most tender. Haha, it's not bad to eat hotpot mutton in this winter." Uncle Qi suggested with a smile.
"Well, we don't need the finished products on the market. We can make our own hot pot base and toppings. I think about it, chive flowers, coriander, sesame paste, fermented bean curd, chili oil, cooking wine, vinegar, and sugar. It's really quite good to mix these ingredients together.
Not bad." Chef Liu nodded in agreement.
Hearing what he said, everyone immediately felt their mouths watering.
"Okay, I have the final say on this matter. These two sheep will not be exposed to the outside world. They are reserved for our internal staff to have dinner together. They are enough for shabu-shabu several times." Li Youran immediately followed the public opinion and made a decision that satisfied everyone.
Feng Daniu immediately suggested that the dinner party should be held as soon as possible. Don't wait until he returns to his hometown to start the dinner here. It would be frustrating just to leave him behind.
Everyone laughed, even Director Feng was said to be a foodie.
After cleaning up the scene, Uncle Qi left a waiter to take care of the chickens and ducks, fetch water and feed them, and clean up the excrement.
The others immediately left the storage area.
Feng Daniu arranged for his assistant Xiao Dai to return the car, and then he followed Li Youran back to his boss's office and reported to him the entire process of going to the countryside.
Li Youran felt some comfort when he heard that many villagers were actively involved in green farming and had signed supply contracts with agricultural product companies.
After all, Lijiagou Village is my hometown. I grew up there, and my feelings for him are naturally extraordinary. It is my duty to do something for my hometown and help the villagers live a richer life.
After talking about work, Li Youran urged Feng Daniu to go back and rest, and the financial procedures would be handled tomorrow morning.
