Go Back To 1980 and Enjoy It - Chapter 332

Chapter 332: The soldiers and horses have not moved, but the food and grass go first



 Tsinghua University.

In a certain boys’ dormitory, Deng Yunsong was organizing the first dormitory party. He looked at his five roommates and said: “Brothers, the National Day is coming soon. We have been at school for a while, and we haven’t gone out to play together. How about that?” Let’s go out and have fun together on this day of universal celebration?”

Zuo Chuanfeng from Henan was the first to respond: “I agree. After all, I have come to the capital. If I don’t go out to play when I have time, when I go home for the Spring Festival, the folks will ask me what the capital is like. I I don’t know how to answer them.”

Qiu Yongnian from Fujian said with a smile: “I also agree with Yunsong’s proposal. We are both from border areas. If we have the opportunity, of course we should go out and have fun to expand our knowledge.”

Yu Zhenping from Sichuan smiled and said: “I have no objection.”

Deng Shirong was not surprised when he heard this. The total area of ​​the seven floors of Naye Deng’s community is only 4,480 square meters. It would cost 2 million to renovate it. The first floor of Wuyue Plaza has an area of ​​3,000 square meters. Now it needs to be renovated. , second and fifth floors, that is 9,000 square meters, plus the decoration of the exterior walls is a lot of money. Overall, it is normal to spend so much money.

A descendant of the Chen family said: “It will take at least more than one year. If you need to make the best quality bean paste, it will even take three to five years.”

Hua Haiyang said generously: “Yunsong, I don’t have your financial conditions. I don’t know how to calculate the cost of going out to play?”

 That is to say, the decoration of the first and second floors is relatively simple, otherwise the money will not be available.

Of course, the price is also quite expensive. He spent more than 20 yuan to eat the hot pot by himself. If he went out to eat with a family or a few friends, it would cost 40 to 50 yuan. This era is indeed considered high-consumption.

At the top are Deng Yunsong and Tan Chuan. Both of them claim that their families are engaged in business, and they usually have enough money for food and drink. There is no serious comparison of who has better financial strength. No one knows.

Dean Huang smiled and said: “Boss Deng, you can rest assured. Our institute’s business covers the entire autonomous region and there are sufficient construction personnel. Moreover, you are a major customer of our design institute. We will definitely give you priority in the allocation of construction personnel.” This way.”

Hua Haiyang from Shaanxi hesitated for a moment, but still nodded and said, “I agree too.”

Tan Chuan responded: “How embarrassing is this? Let me also contribute!”

 Deng Shirong is looking at the decoration design renderings of Wuyue Plaza given to him by Dean Huang.

Although the Doubanjiang produced in Jiangyuan is now industrially produced, the traditional skills of their Jiangyuan are still there, but the Doubanjiang made with traditional skills is not as cost-effective as the Doubanjiang produced industrially, so in recent years it has Just brewing some on a small scale.

Dean Huang nodded and said, “No problem. If the decoration at Naye Deng’s Community is not urgent, then I can allocate manpower back and go all out to decorate Wuyue Plaza, ensuring that it will be decorated before New Year’s Day next year. “

The more Deng Shirong looked at it, the more satisfied he became, and praised: “Dean Huang, I am very satisfied with your design. I have only one request, and that is that the wood used for the decoration of the fifth floor of Wuyue Plaza should still be Hainan huanghuali, rosewood, These three types of wood are golden nanmu.”

Zuo Chuanfeng’s parents are workers, and their family conditions may be a little better than those of Qiu Yongnian’s family. He also uses the university subsidy for himself and does not need to send it home.

Let’s talk about the decoration of the exterior wall first. The decoration provided by the Architectural Design Institute is to inlay the most fashionable and popular large-area glass mosaic in this era, and partially inlay marble. Although the effect cannot be compared with that of later generations, it is indeed considered good in this era. It’s getting taller.

 So, the two parties began to negotiate the purchase price.

Hua Haiyang breathed a sigh of relief and said, “Okay, then I won’t be polite to you!”

Take dried chili peppers as an example. The taste of dried chili peppers produced locally in Guangxi is far inferior to those produced in Sichuan.

“Boss Deng is too polite. This is what we should do.”

　　Nanning.

Deng Shirong nodded and said: “I understand this, but I don’t know how long the production cycle will be?”

After Deng Shirong arrived in Chengdu, he walked around and found that hot pot restaurants had begun to rise on the streets of Chengdu in this era.

In recent years, with the rapid development of Sichuan cuisine, the demand for Pixian Douban in the catering industry and ordinary people has been increasing. This has prompted Pixian Douban manufacturers to adopt industrial production to increase the output of Pixian Douban.

As the saying goes, before the soldiers and horses are moved, food and grass go first. Deng Shirong felt it was necessary to go to Sichuan and Chongqing to purchase or reserve a batch of Pixian Douban in advance, and if possible, establish a long-term cooperative relationship there.

Even though we haven’t been together for a long time, everyone still has some idea of ​​the financial strength of the six people in the dormitory.

After knowing the price, Deng Shirong asked: “Dean Huang, does your architectural design institute have enough construction personnel?”

Deng Shirong stood up and said with a smile: “Then I’ll leave first.”

 As soon as these words came out, the five roommates in the dormitory who came from different provinces were all shocked.

The first person Deng Shirong looked for was Yifenghe Jiangyuan, the founder of Doubanjiang. After explaining his purpose, he met the head of Yifenghe.

Now, since there are bosses who are willing to purchase goods at high prices, there is no reason not to do this business.

Especially, the design of each table and chair is completely ahead of this era. It uses the built-in hot pot table of later generations, which is not only safer but also more beautiful.

 He made a note of the hot pot restaurants with better taste, so that if necessary, he could come and poach them.

 Because Pixian Douban produced using traditional techniques has a much stronger taste than industrially produced douban.

Other roommates are also full of praise. One of the brothers is from Tsinghua University and the other is from Peking University. This kind of thing is a legend no matter where it is placed.

 And these two large soy sauce gardens are no exception. If they do not engage in industrial production but use traditional techniques to produce, their output cannot keep up and they cannot develop.

 Architectural Design Institute.

I have to say that whether it is now or in future generations, this decoration is a bottomless pit. If it is a simple decoration, hundreds of thousands of dollars will be more than enough. But once the decoration is more elaborate, any amount of money can really be poured in.

Qiu Yongnian was born in a fisherman’s family, and his living conditions are not that good, but they are not as bad as those of Hua Haiyang’s family. Anyway, he can keep his college subsidy for himself instead of sending it to his family. As long as he doesn’t spend money lavishly, It’s still enough.

  Until later generations, Chengdu, as a first-tier city, still ranked high.

Dean Huang already had the answer in his mind and said with a smile: “The overall price is 3.28 million.”

Tan Chuan said: “We really need to go to the Great Wall, but we won’t be able to see the most beautiful scenery of the Great Wall if we go at this time. I heard from elders that the snow scenery of the Great Wall is the most beautiful.”

After the two parties met and exchanged a few words, Deng Shirong explained the purpose of his visit and said: “Boss Chen, the main reason I came here this time is to entrust Guixiang Garden to help you make a batch of high-quality bean paste using traditional techniques. I wonder if Guixiang Garden can help you make a batch of high-quality bean paste.” Accept my commission?”

Deng Yunsong waved his hands and said: “Brothers, we are all still students now. Apart from receiving subsidies from the school, we have no other income. Everyone’s family conditions are different. I am relatively lucky. My family conditions are not bad. I can go out to play.” This fee is nothing to me, so you don’t need to be polite to me. We still have a few years to get along, and there will be plenty of opportunities if we want to contribute. “

Seeing that everyone unanimously agreed, Deng Yunsong happily discussed with them: “Then where would it be better for you to go? To see the majesty of the Great Wall, or to feel the magnificence of the Forbidden City? Or to appreciate Tiananmen Square The majestic momentum?”

 …

Dean Huang also stood up and said, “Boss Deng, it’s getting late. I’m the host. How about we go have a meal together?”

 In later generations, when the city of Chengdu is mentioned, there are only two things that come to mind immediately for many people: one is hot pot and the other is beautiful women.

Because there were so many diners, the waiters were very busy and the greetings were not very good. Deng Shirong kept this in mind. When his daughter’s hot pot restaurant opened, he must recruit more waiters so that every diner could enjoy the best meal. good service.

Deng Shirong didn’t get on the train back to Nanning until he had almost finished sightseeing in both places.

Deng Shirong declined politely: “Thank you, Dean Huang. I won’t eat this meal. I have to go back to Bobai later. I’ll treat you to dinner when I come next time.”

However, there is no need to be as exaggerated as Haidilao in later generations. It just needs to be more considerate than other hot pot restaurants. After struggling for more than 40 minutes, Deng Shirong finally had his first spicy hot pot meal since coming to Chengdu.

 My younger daughter will graduate from high school next year. Based on her current academic performance, it is unlikely that she will continue studying.

Yu Zhenping said: “Yes, let’s all contribute. We can’t let Yunsong bear the burden alone.”

Thinking of this, Deng Shirong, who had nothing to do, took a bus to Nanning, and then took a train from Nanning to Chengdu, Sichuan.

Qiu Yongnian said: “Then let’s all go. They are all places that have been famous for a long time.”

 After finishing the hot pot, it was getting late, so Deng Shirong asked the locals and found a high-end hotel to stay at.

 Dean Huang knew that the big customer in front of him had a special liking for these three types of wood. When he heard what he said, he readily responded: “Of course there is no problem with this.”

Further up, there is Yu Zhenhua. According to him, his father is a township leader and his mother is a middle school teacher. His family conditions are much better than those of Zuo Chuanfeng and Qiu Yongnian. Not only can he use the subsidies for his own use, but his family can also provide support when needed. Some money and food are pretty good.

At the same time, we are looking for a group of Sichuan cuisine chefs with excellent cooking skills. When the younger daughter’s hot pot restaurant opens, we will poach them with high salaries.

“Dean Huang, I’ll have to work hard for you next time!”

Dean Huang said a few polite words, but when he saw that Deng Shirong really had no intention of staying for dinner, he gave up: “Well, boss Deng, please go slowly, I won’t send him away!”

The descendants of the Chen family were a little surprised when they heard this. Without answering, they asked: “Boss Deng, I want to ask first, how many batches do you mean?”

 After everything was settled, Deng Shirong said goodbye and left.

ˆ It truly takes traditional culture as the inner core element and presents it with modern design concepts.

 The decoration of the hot pot restaurant on the second floor was mainly based on Deng Shirong’s opinions. The overall layout is very reasonable.

This hot pot restaurant is not very big, and it is dinner time in the evening. The business is very booming. The open space at the entrance of the hot pot restaurant is also filled with tables and chairs. The diners are eating hot pot while setting up a dragon gate formation with their friends and family.

The descendant of the Chen family was slightly shocked. This business was really big. He immediately said: “Boss Deng, we can accept your commission, but there is one thing that needs to be explained in advance, because the high-quality bean paste produced with traditional techniques is not only The production cycle is long, and the process is relatively complex, requiring a lot of manpower, and the price will definitely be much higher than that of industrially produced doubanjiang. “

As shown below:

As soon as Deng Shirong approached, he smelled an extremely overpowering fragrance. He had smelled such a fragrance in his previous life, and it was the first time he smelled it after his rebirth.

Deng Yunsong smiled and said: “Let’s digress and return to the topic just now. If we don’t go to the Great Wall now, where would be a better place to go?”

There are currently no plans to decorate the third and fourth floors, but the decoration of the mansion on the fifth floor was designed by Dean Huang himself. After his last communication with Deng Shirong, he clearly understood his requirements, and now he has achieved this effect. Deng Shirong was very satisfied with the picture.

The other roommates said nothing more after hearing this. Just like Deng Yunsong said, they will just contribute again when they have the opportunity in the future.

 Next, if nothing else happens, the younger daughter will start to follow the path arranged by Deng Shirong and open a hotpot restaurant.

In Pixian County, there are two most famous brands of doubanjiang. One is “Yifenghe”, which invented doubanjiang, and the other is its competitor “Yuanfengyuan”. These two major soybean gardens each had their own brands during the Republic of China. With a drying area of ​​nearly 10 acres, 25,000 vats, nearly 40 craftsmen, and an annual output of about 400,000 jins of watercress, the scale is already spectacular.

Deng Shirong thought for a while and said: “Boss Chen, do you think this will work? I want Doubanjiang in these periods, whether it’s one year, three years or five years. We can sign a contract first and how much should be paid.” Please pay as much deposit as you want, and I will come to pick up the goods when the time is up.”

 …

As roommates, they all know that Deng Yunsong’s college entrance examination score is the first in science in Guangxi, and now there is a brother from Peking University. Are these two brothers too awesome?

Yu Zhenping couldn’t help but ask: “Yunsong, is your second brother still studying, or has he graduated and started working?”

Deng Yunsong said: “He graduated last year and started working!”

 My younger daughter’s hot pot restaurant must have spicy hot pot.

A descendant of the Chen family said: “Of course.”

Deng Yunsong smiled and said: “Don’t worry, I have already asked my second brother, and I will be responsible for leading the way.”

 …

Hua Haiyang praised with admiration: “Yunsong, you brothers are so awesome!”

Although the main purpose of this trip has been achieved, Deng Shirong has no plans to go back immediately. Instead, he walked around Chengdu and then went to Chongqing, the birthplace of spicy hot pot.

 After everything was explained clearly, Deng Shirong signed a decoration contract with the Architectural Design Institute and paid a portion of the decoration funds in advance.

The selection of these seasonings is closely related to the taste of the hot pot restaurant, so Deng Shirong naturally has to pay attention to it.

Although the people of Guangdong and Guangxi are not as good as other provinces in eating spicy food, later generations have proved that spicy hot pot still has a very huge market in Guangdong and Guangxi, and the appeal of this thing is really overwhelming.

Chengdu has been known as the “Land of Abundance” since ancient times. It is one of the first batch of national historical and cultural cities, the birthplace of ancient Shu civilization, and the best tourist city in China. The Jinsha ruins within the territory have a history of 3,000 years. Shun named it Chengdu because “it takes one year to form a gathering, two years to form a town, and two years to form a town, and three years to form a city.”

The two parties signed the contract, and Deng Shirong paid a deposit of 5,000 yuan in advance.

Of course, there are still potential safety hazards when using gas tanks, but although induction cookers of this era are available, they have not yet become popular, and the version cannot be compared with the induction cookers of later generations, so the current design is still based on gas tanks. Wait until after 2000 to replace the equipment!

As for safety issues, as long as the boss pays attention to this and checks frequently, safety accidents can be minimized.

 During the Tang Dynasty, Chengdu and Yangzhou became the two most economically prosperous cities in the country. At that time, they were known as “Yang Yizhou and Yangzhou”, with Yangzhou first and Yizhou second. Yizhou at that time was basically the area where the capital is now.

Zuo Chuanfeng said: “If you don’t want to go to the Great Wall, you can go to Tiananmen Square or the Forbidden City. They are not far away anyway.”

Deng Yunsong smiled and replied: “My second brother is from Peking University next door.”

At present, Hua Haiyang’s economic conditions are indeed at the bottom of the dormitory. After receiving the subsidy from school every month, he has to send part of it home, leaving only part for living expenses. If it is too expensive to go out for fun, He can’t take responsibility.

During this period of time, Deng Shirong also ate hot pot at least a dozen times, all at different hot pot restaurants. Some tasted good, while others were relatively ordinary, but there was nothing bad because he chose all the hot pot. It is a popular hot pot restaurant.

As soon as the news came out, Deng Yunsong’s weight in the hearts of the five roommates became even heavier.

 For spicy hot pot, dried chili peppers, Sichuan peppercorns and Pixian bean paste are essential seasonings.

So, the matter was settled!

Chengdu is one of the few ancient cities that has been prosperous from ancient times to modern times. It was the second largest city in the country during the Western Han Dynasty and one of the five capitals in the country during the Eastern Han Dynasty.

He has provided the best conditions for his little daughter anyway. If he can’t do this, then don’t bother and just stay at home and be a rich second generation.

In the end, the price of doubanjiang with a one-year fermentation period is 0.16 yuan/jin, the price of doubanjiang with a three-year fermentation period is 0.22 yuan/jin, and the price of doubanjiang with a five-year fermentation period is 0.28/jin. This price is nothing to Deng Shirong. , and readily agreed.

Tan Chuan said: “If you are sure you are going to these two places, then ask local classmates, otherwise you will be stupid and don’t understand anything, and you may not be able to figure it out after a long time.”

Deng Yunsong smiled and replied: “Don’t worry about the cost. Just pay for the bus ride and I will arrange the rest.”

As for the supermarket decoration on the first floor, the architect had seen the Yongjia Supermarket in Bobai County, and he also made certain innovations based on this decoration. Judging from the renderings, it is already the prototype of the supermarket decoration in later generations.

The price is so expensive and the business is so good. This proves that the charm of hot pot is really big enough. Letting my youngest daughter run a chain of hot pot restaurants is definitely the right route. As for whether she can do it, it depends on her business ability. .

Qiu Yongnian asked in surprise: “Yunsong, your second brother is also studying in the capital?”

Deng Shirong said: “I want as much as your soy sauce garden can make.”

 Dean Huang said with a smile: “No problem, don’t worry, Boss Deng, we will definitely do what you ask for.”

Tan Chuandao from Zhejiang: “I agree too.”

 Next, the two discussed some details of the decoration in detail.

Yifenghe’s founder’s surname is Chen, and those who are now in charge of the soy sauce garden are descendants of the Chen family.

There are not many Pixian Douban produced using traditional techniques, and the production cycle is long. If you don’t reserve it in advance, you may not be able to buy it temporarily.

Deng Shirong said: “As for the first and second floors, the wood used, Dean Huang, is up to you. My only requirement is that it be strong and durable.”

Originally, there are so many douban in Pixian County that there is no need to buy or reserve them in advance. However, the Pixian douban that Deng Shirong plans to purchase does not want to be industrially produced, but only the one produced using traditional techniques.

 …

By the Song Dynasty, Chengdu and Hangzhou became the most prosperous cities at that time, with a population exceeding one million.

Zuo Chuanfeng said excitedly: “I proposed to climb the Great Wall, and the chairman even said that he is not a true man if he cannot climb the Great Wall. I have really been yearning for the Great Wall for a long time!”

Just as he was hungry, Deng Shirong went to a hot pot restaurant called “Re Bonsai Hot Pot Restaurant Business Hall”.

Deng Shirong nodded with satisfaction, and then asked: “Dean Huang, please do the math, what is the overall price?”

Pixian Douban, known as the “soul of Sichuan cuisine”, is a very important seasoning for making spicy hot pot.

 In the same business, some people can make it bigger and stronger, some can only maintain success, and some can close down. This all depends on personal ability.

 …

 Deng Shirong is a good cook, so he naturally understands that the taste of spices produced in different places, even if they are the same thing, is very different.

Deng Shirong said: “That’s good. I hope you can speed up the decoration progress of Wuyue Plaza while ensuring the quality of decoration. You can even suspend the decoration of Deng’s Community in Naye, the county town, and give priority to the decoration of Wuyue Plaza. , try to finish the decoration before New Year’s Day next year, I wonder if that’s okay?”

 Next, those with better conditions than Hua Haiyang are Qiu Yongnian and Zuo Chuanfeng.

The taste is really good, no wonder this hot pot restaurant’s business is so booming.

Deng Yunsong nodded and said: “Tan Chuan is right. A few years ago, my second brother and a group of his classmates went to climb the Great Wall when it snowed in winter. I heard from him that the snow scene at that time was indeed very beautiful. ”

“goodbye!”

“goodbye!”
