MTL - Serve as Contrast Team in a ‘Dad with Baby’ Show-Chapter 88 New product
Hu Mao's family next door got up early as usual and started preparing Xiaolongbao and soybean milk.
When they saw Lin Cheng and Lin Momo who had already washed up at the door, the couple were stunned for a moment.
"Why did you father and daughter get up so early today?" Yang Fang asked in surprise.
Lin Momo stepped forward and explained: "We have thought of a new product that can be sold. Get up earlier and try to see if it can be successful."
"That's it," Yang Fang nodded, and asked again: "Should we still use bean dregs?"
"right."
Hearing this, Yang Fang laughed, and said again: "That's just right, we plan to make more soy milk and tofu today, and we can provide you with more bean dregs."
Business was good yesterday, and the tofu they had prepared was sold out early, so the husband and wife decided to make more tofu.
"Great, I can help you." Lin Momo volunteered.
Seeing Lin Momo's enthusiasm, Yang Fang did not refuse her, she nodded and said, "Okay, you can add beans for us, and Auntie will treat you to eat bean curd later."
"good!"
…
The work that Hu Mao and his wife have to do early in the morning is not easy. In addition to grinding beans, cooking soy milk and some tofu, they also have to make steamed buns.
With the help of Lin Cheng and Lin Momo, their efficiency is much higher.
Soon, four large pots of tofu, a large vat of soy milk, and more than thirty cages of steamed buns were ready.
Hu Mao took the wrapped Xiaolongbao and steamed them in a pan, while Yang Fang prepared breakfast.
Lin Cheng and Lin Momo took some bean dregs and tried to make thin slices.
There are not many materials available, so Lin Cheng didn't take too much bean dregs during the experiment, but took half a bowl of bean dregs from each of the six small bowls.
Then, Lin Cheng began to add some existing materials and seasonings to the bowl to mix with the bean dregs. The materials and amounts added to each bowl were different.
At this time, Yang Fang came over to serve the bean curd to the two of them. Seeing Lin Cheng's clean and confident operation, she was a little surprised, and couldn't help asking: "Do you know how to make that thin slice? Or did you do it before?" Pass?"
She has seen many flakes made of grain, but she has never seen one made of bean dregs.
"Never." Lin Cheng replied calmly.
Yang Fang on the side was not calm anymore, and asked again: "Then how do you know how much of these things are added?"
"I don't know, but it's not difficult in theory, but try it." After a pause, Lin Cheng continued to add: "Add water if it feels dry, add some flour if it can't be formed, add some glutinous rice flour if it is not sticky enough If the ductility is not enough, add more flour."
Yang Fang: "..."
Not only Yang Fang, but also the viewers who got up early in the live broadcast room are not so calm:
【So casual...】
【Really, Lin Cheng said it so easily...】
[I feel that the eldest sister next to me is dumbfounded, probably because I didn't expect someone to cook so sloppily. 】
[Haha, but thinking about it carefully, what Lin Cheng said seems quite reasonable. 】
[Don't roll over. 】
…
Here, Lin Cheng quickly kneaded 6 parts of bean dregs with different material ratios into dough.
Lin Momo numbered the dough with different grains of sesame seeds, and after that, the two of them steamed six **** of bean dregs on a steamer lined with gauze by taking advantage of the heat from Hu Mao's family's tofu cooking.
After some steaming and cooking, the properties of the six okara **** have undergone some changes.
Among them, three **** of bean dregs that were not sticky enough, or could not be formed, were directly added a spoonful of sauce by Lin Momo and became the breakfast snacks for the father and daughter.
After the remaining No. 3, No. 5 and No. 6 were cooled down, the father and daughter took them to the chopping board and flattened them with a rolling pin.
It's just not easy to flake the okara balls.
"It can be like this..." Lin Momo on the side remembered the rolling method she learned from the aunt next door when she lived with her grandma: put three pieces of bean dregs noodle cakes on both sides of a layer of food preservation bags, then stack them together, put them on the chopping board Put two thin wooden strips of constant thickness on the left and right sides, put the bean dregs noodle cake in the middle, and press the two ends of the rolling pin on the two wooden strips to roll the noodles.
He didn't find the stick, so Lin Cheng found two chopsticks and operated it in the way Lin Momo said, and it worked once.
"Is the bean dregs noodle rolled out in this way thin and well-proportioned?!" Lin Momo said from the side.
"Can."
Lin Cheng divided the bean dregs dough into six pieces, and rolled them out a little thinner.
The rolled bean dregs dough is taken out to dry next to the fire.
Borrowing the temperature around the fire, the six pieces of bean dregs dough soon began to lose water and harden.
When the bean dregs were half dry, Lin Cheng took them out and cut them into small diamond-shaped pieces. Although the color was not as pretty as the millet flakes he saw yesterday, it still looked like that.
The father and daughter waited aside until the small pieces of bean dregs were almost completely dry, and then they put those thin slices into the oil pan for frying three times.
Lin Momo's eyes lit up when she saw the thin slices of bean dregs in the oil pan began to slightly foam, curl, and turn yellowish-brown little by little.
"We seem to have succeeded!" Lin Momo said excitedly.
"Stand farther away, be careful not to burn it." Lin Cheng reminded.
Lin Cheng took out the bean dregs slices in the oil pan one by one, controlled the oil, and let it cool down a bit before putting them separately on the plate.
Lin Momo's face was already filled with an expression of eagerness to try.
"Okay, let's try."
"good."
Because the bean dregs themselves do not foam, the fried bean dregs will not be as fluffy as shrimp chips and millet slices, but because they are pressed very thin, they do not feel hard, but have a crunchy texture.
The bean dregs in it are very rough, which is different from the other flakes that most people usually eat, but it is precisely this texture that has a special taste.
Lin Momo ate another two yuan, then looked at Lin Cheng excitedly and said, "It really worked!"
"This looks like potato chips." Lin Momo muttered, "But it's not the same as potato chips."
"This is the 'Momo Brand' special edition crisps."
Hearing Lin Momo's words, Lin Cheng smiled and asked, "Which one do you think is the tastiest?"
"Is it the best..." Hearing Lin Cheng's question, Lin Momo stared at the several plates of bean dregs crisps in front of him and compared them carefully, and finally pointed to one of them and said, "This, this is the best. A little crispy, not too hard, but very crisp and very fragrant."
Then Lin Momo mentioned several other reasons for being 'unselected': "This one is a little burnt, this one is not too brittle, this one is a bit hard, this one looks a little dark and not good-looking..."
"Okay, that's it."
Lin Cheng took a pen and paper, and wrote down the ingredients and proportions of the plate of bean dregs crisps that Lin Momo selected, and also wrote 'Fry until half-baked and fish out'.
This wave of operations by Lin Cheng was beyond the expectations of the audience in the live broadcast room:
[Fuck, I thought Lin Cheng was messing around just now, I didn't expect him to memorize the ratio of ingredients for each type of dough! 】
[It was shown by Lin Cheng's wave. 】
[Lin Cheng's mind is really good. 】
[Finally I know who my good girl goose is so smart from. 】
[I finally know the gap between me and a man who can earn 300 million in a week. 】
[Finally know the gap between big bosses and ordinary people. 】
…
Here, after confirming the materials and proportions, Lin Cheng took Lin Momo out to buy the materials he needed.
Because there were a lot of materials needed, the two went directly to the grain and oil wholesale market that they had visited once before.
However, unlike last time, when buying flour, grain and oil this time, Lin Cheng deliberately asked the store for the manufacturer's information, qualification certificate, receipt and other materials.
【What does Lin Cheng want these for? 】
Lin Cheng's actions caused the audience to be puzzled for a while.
[I want these materials to feel safer. ] Someone guessed.
[Is it for the convenience of relevant departments to check? ] Another conjecture was made, but this conjecture was quickly refuted by others.
[Who will come to check such a mobile food stall? 】
In the old towns of some cities, it is very common for the Hu Mao family to push a cart to sell breakfast, tofu, or some stalls selling roasted sweet potatoes and fried potatoes. It is almost impossible for such stalls to comprehensively check their licenses, qualifications, and various inspection reports.
【It seems to be...】
[There are quite a lot of them in front of our school. I still eat them every day. I usually buy the ones that look clean. Some of the bosses are quite conscientious. 】
[The downstairs of my house is also the same. There are people pushing small carts and riding small tricycles. There are also some elderly neighbors who boil tea eggs and sell them. 】
[This kind of thing is really hard to control, and most of them just control their business activities. 】
[Based on the standards of small vendors, Momo and his family make really conscientious things! 】
[That is, after all, something made by the father and daughter who are obsessed with cleanliness. 】
[And we have hundreds of thousands of people online to 'supervise' their entire production process. 】
[Unfortunately, they are not in my city, otherwise I would definitely buy them, haha. 】
…
The father and daughter who bought the ingredients returned to their residence.
At this time, Hu Mao's family had already gone out to sell breakfast, but they left a big pot of bean dregs for Lin Cheng and the others, and lent their big pot, stove and chopping board for making buns to Lin Cheng and the others for use.
With the previous experience, this time, Lin Cheng and Lin Momo's movements were much quicker, whether it was mixing ingredients, rolling out the thin skin of bean dregs, drying the skin, or cutting into pieces.
In half the morning, Lin Cheng and Lin Momo had already made half of the pot of bean dregs into thin pieces.
While continuing to dry the thin pieces, the two made the remaining bean dregs into bean dregs cakes and bean dregs vegetarian **** according to yesterday's practice.
Bean dregs cakes, vegetarian meatballs and dried thin pieces are fried in sequence.
Bean dregs cakes and vegetarian meatballs have a certain taste, so there is no need to reprocess them. After frying and letting them cool, they can be put into paper bags.
Although the bean dregs crisps taste good, they don't have any seasonings. Therefore, after removing the oil and controlling the oil, the two sprinkled chili powder, five-spice powder, salt and pepper powder, etc. on the slices.
Afterwards, Lin Cheng was in charge of bagging, while Lin Momo was making labels.
For the small label of the cartoon image, Lin Momo wrote the name and different flavors in the blank area with colored pens.
"These are plum flavored, these are tomato flavored, this is pepper and salt, this is spicy..."
"Is the name just 'bean dregs chips'?" Lin Momo looked at Lin Cheng and asked.
"Yes," Lin Cheng nodded, and suggested again: "You can also add the 'Momo card'."
Hearing Lin Cheng's words, Lin Momo frowned vividly: "I just said that in the morning."
"'Momo Card' feels so earthy..." Lin Momo whispered to herself.
This whispered complaint was relayed verbatim to the live broadcast room.
【Haha, I'm dying of laughter, is Momo despising her own name Tu? 】
[I want to know what Momo's father is thinking at the moment. 】
…
In the end, after a lot of deliberation, Lin Momo gave their okara pancakes a resounding and pleasant name: Doudou brand okara crisps.
Seeing the name Lin Momo wrote on the label, everyone in the live broadcast room burst into laughter:
[My god, I can't stop laughing. I thought Momo would get along with such a gorgeous name, but I didn't expect it to be Doudou? 】
【Doudou...】
[Is this the name that Momo had in mind? 】
[It turns out that in Momo's mind, 'Doudou' sounds better than 'Momo'? 】
【Hahaha, I'm about to laugh, I really don't think the name Doudou is more foreign than Momo. 】
[However, since the female goose likes it so much, why don't you apply to Papa Lin for a name change and change it to 'Lin Doudou' (dog head). 】
…
Lin Momo, who didn't know that she had won a new nickname "Lin Doudou" on the Internet, looked at the name she had chosen and the label she had written, and nodded with satisfaction.
Then, Lin Momo took the label she made and went to 'show off' to Lin Cheng.
"Dad, what do you think of this? Doesn't the name feel better."
Lin Cheng: "..." Not very good.
However, seeing Lin Momo's happy face, Lin Cheng still nodded his head against his conscience, and replied, "It's okay."
"You can add another logo, which is a unique pattern logo." Lin Cheng suggested.
Lin Momo thought about it, it seemed to be good, so she took the colored pen and got back to work.
Finally, Lin Momo's label was completed—on the top was a funny-looking soy bean cartoon with stickman limbs, below it was written Doudou' bean dregs crisps, and the bottom row was marked with different colors with colored pens. taste.
Bean dregs chips of different flavors are packed in food-grade kraft paper bags, and finally sealed at the mouth of the bag with a label with adhesive backing.
Such a bean dregs crisp looks a lot like that.
[It feels okay. 】
[I also think that it looks quite delicate. 】
[Curiosity, want to eat. 】
【I want to eat, too…】
[I want to try to make the same style myself! 】
[What I make is not Momo brand, bah, it is not Doudou brand, haha. 】
[The one who wants to eat Doudou brand. 】
…
Lin Momo didn't know at this time that her Doudou brand bean dregs crisps had become popular online before they were sold. Together with Lin Cheng, they packed all the remaining crisps into bags and sealed them. Time went to the pedestrian street yesterday.
At this time, there were still not many people on the pedestrian street.
But what surprised Lin Momo was that she met some customers who had bought bean dregs cakes from them yesterday.
"Are you going to buy bean dregs cakes today too?" Seeing those people walking in front of her, Lin Momo asked in surprise.
"I came here on a special trip to buy bean dregs cakes today." One of them said, paused, and continued: "I bought two yesterday, and my kids really like them, and they still want to eat them after arguing today."
However, there are not many shops or stalls selling bean dregs cakes, and it is too troublesome to prepare ingredients for making bean dregs cakes, so she had to come here again.
"It's a good thing you're here. I'm afraid you won't be selling here today. Just bring me six today, three big and three small."
"good."
"We still have new products today, do you want to try them?"
Lin Momo recommended her own okara chips to the other party.
"Is this potato chips?" Seeing the small crispy chips that Lin Momo took out, the other party asked.
"No, these are bean dregs chips, which are also made from bean dregs." Lin Momo explained.
Thinking of something, Lin Momo added: "Although this tastes a little like potato chips, the main ingredient is bean dregs, which only contain a little carbohydrate."
Lin Momo heard the word 'carbohydrate' when she was with Zhou Qi and Wang Xi in Lin Cheng's company.
Every time Wang Xi ordered takeout, she liked to order Orleans-style hamburgers and chicken wings. When Zhou Qi asked her why she didn’t order fried chicken burgers or fried chicken wings, Wang Xi’s answer was: Orleans-style without flour, less carbohydrates, and healthier…
I don't know if this magical theory is also applicable in the eyes of this woman in her early thirties. Hearing what Lin Momo said, the other party is obviously interested in this little snack in front of her.
The woman tried a piece of crisp: "It feels okay."
"The one you ate is salt and pepper flavor. In addition, we also have plum flavor, spicy flavor, tomato flavor..."
"Really, how did you sell it?"
"3 yuan for the small bag, 5 yuan for the big bag."
"Then give me a packet of each flavor."
"OK."
After the first order was completed, the second and third orders also came.
Soon, many people gathered in front of Lin Cheng and Lin Momo to join in the fun or buy their bean dregs cakes or bean dregs crisps, and there was even a vague queue formation.
Lin Momo's business was very good. In one afternoon, all the bean dregs cakes, vegetarian meatballs and bean dregs crisps they brought were sold out.
—
In the evening, Lin Cheng, Lin Momo and Hu Mao's family next door sat at the door and had dinner together.
Because the business of buying tofu in the past two days was good, Hu Mao was obviously in a good mood at this time, talking about some interesting things he saw when he was buying tofu in the past two days and selling Xiaolongbao at night.
"What's the profit of tofu?" Lin Cheng asked during the chat.
Hu Mao waved his hand, and said, "This tofu is originally an ingredient that people usually buy as an addition to their dishes at night. If it is too expensive, no one will buy it."
"Originally, we mainly sold breakfast steamed buns and soy milk. We thought that we could make soy milk and buy some tofu. It would be good to earn a little more, but in terms of profit, the profit of tofu may only be so much. "
Hu Mao gestured to Lin Cheng.
"That's it. It's much less profitable than Xiaolongbao, but it's easier to make than Xiaolongbao."
"The price of selling in the vegetable market is a bit higher, but you have to pay and pay to enter the market. We thought that we were just selling by the way, and there was no need to go to the market, so we sold next to the market every day. Come back when you're done." Yang Fang added from the side.
Lin Cheng nodded, turned to look at the two of them, and asked, "Have you considered finding a shop to do business with?"
"Are you talking about renting a shop to sell tofu? I don't think you can earn back the rent, or are you talking about selling breakfast steamed buns?" Hu Mao asked.
Lin Cheng shook his head, and said again: "Tofu is one aspect. I mean to build a special category store to sell soy products, including primary processed soy products, as well as other soy-based snacks and desserts. , snacks, etc."
"Primarily processed soy products may not be profitable, but other non-staple foods are not." This is also a fact that Lin Cheng discovered in the past two days selling bean dregs cakes.
"From the initial processing to other by-products, this can just make the whole business process a closed loop. Calculated as a whole, the income will not be too low..."
Hu Mao's family understood Lin Cheng's words, and so did the audience in the live broadcast room.
[I see, no wonder Lin Cheng asked for those materials from the merchant when he went shopping today. Did Lin Cheng plan to open a store? 】
[This is great, open a store formally and formally. 】
[I also think that Lin Cheng has a good idea. If he can succeed, opening a store will definitely be more stable than being an unlicensed vendor. 】
[I feel that Lin Cheng actually wants to help the family next door. If they start their business in the past few days, even if Lin Cheng and the others leave after this period of filming, this family can continue to operate the business. 】
[There is also a free advertisement for the program, I think it can be done. 】
…
"Is this really feasible?" Hu Mao asked uncertainly.
Seeing the look of curiosity and anticipation on the other party's face, Lin Cheng explained his plans and ideas to Hu Mao's family again in as simple words as possible.
Lin Cheng's consideration is to make such a store a standardized and branded store.
"At the same price, customers who buy pre-processed products will naturally choose a more convenient and cleaner place to purchase. As for other by-products, the on-site pre-processed product production project is a kind of publicity and branding effect."
"The point is that the cost of such a store is not high." Lin Cheng said.
He suddenly thought of this because of the inspiration brought by Lin Momo's "Momo brand" bean dregs in the morning.
Hu Mao's family was moved by Lin Cheng's persuasion, and there was a look of surprise on their faces.
"This idea is very novel." The two said with emotion.
"It's just that it's not difficult to do these things. When we do it, will someone else do it soon?" Hu Mao expressed his concerns.
"meeting."
"this…"
But Lin Cheng quickly changed the subject and said: "However, when it comes to food and brands, diners are prone to have preconceived ideas. As long as they are good enough and can maintain the quality, they will not be surpassed or replaced by latecomers."
"What's more, the profit of the commodity itself is not high, because such an industry is not suitable for capital to invest or fight price wars. The general retail investors do not imitate for a long time, and capital will not choose such an industry for investment."
"How do you know this?" Hu Mao asked in surprise.
—Because I am a capitalist.
Lin Cheng said something to himself in his heart, but he didn't say it out.
"From the perspective of the value of the product itself and the manpower invested, this is the case." Lin Cheng said simply.
"And the goal of such a store is not to become an online celebrity store, but to make it a characteristic old store through its own persistence and hard work, which can last for many years."
【Let's go to Lin Cheng for business. 】
[A businessman who was delayed by his career in the entertainment industry. 】
[Lin Cheng's idea is really good. 】
[The family next door is not very educated, but they are all able to bear hardships and stand hard work. Although it is impossible to get rich overnight by opening such a store, at least they can have a stable income every day. 】
[Indeed, there are many old shops like this outside our old community. They sell ordinary food, but they do well. They are all repeat customers. They have been open for more than ten or twenty years. Compared with ordinary part-time jobs, although it is a little harder, but the income is very good, the boss who lives downstairs in our house does nothing but make fried potato chips. I bought a house myself. 】
…
Here, after listening to Lin Cheng's words, Hu Mao was still a little uncertain, but when he thought about the decision he had made with his wife, he wanted the family to settle down here, and the two children could study with peace of mind in the future. Hu Mao felt relieved He nodded in response.
