The boss must really think she’s a kid to mess around with.
An old pot that hasn’t sold for over eight hundred years and he wants to sell it for eight yuan?
Ni Yang laughed and said, “Boss, quit joking, I’m serious about buying. I’ll take it for one yuan and fifty cents.”
The boss replied speechlessly, “Young lady, you’re the one who’s joking. A pot worth eight yuan for one fifty? This pot is the most sought-after this year, if you come any later, you might not be able to buy it.”
Ni Yang said, “I’ve never seen any sought-after item that has been stored in the warehouse for several years and not sold. If you don’t really want to sell it, then I’ll leave you alone.”
With that, Ni Yang turned and left.
Seeing that Ni Yang had walked several steps and had no intention of turning back, the boss immediately shouted, “Young lady, come back! Come back quickly! I’ll sell it to you for one fifty!”
Although one yuan and fifty cents wouldn’t make much profit, it was better than it rotting in the warehouse and turning into a piece of waste.
She originally thought that this young lady was easy to fool, but she never expected that this young lady was very shrewd!
Successfully buying a pot and groceries, Ni Yang returned home.
When she returned home, it was after five in the afternoon, just in time to cook.
Ni Cuihua was washing vegetables, while Ni Yang went to start a charcoal fire to grill fish.
The grilled fish had to be grilled with charcoal fire to be authentic, grilling in a bread oven would definitely not work.
So Yi Yang started a charcoal fire in the stove, split the fish in half and skewered it on a bamboo stick, and started grilling.
Before long, there was a ‘sizzling’ sound in the air. After seeing the fish oil come out, she started adding chilli powder, cumin powder, table salt, and other spices. After all the spices were added, a distinctive barbecue aroma came out. Ni Yang seemed to have returned to the time in her past life when she sat on the street grilling skewers.
After the fish was grilled till both sides were golden brown, Ni Yang started to stir fry the grilled fish ingredients.
First, she stir-fried the bean paste to bring out the red oil, then added spring onions, ginger, and garlic to bring out the fragrance. Then she added green chili peppers, onions, Sichuan peppercorns, soy sauce, beer and water. After it was boiled on high heat, she poured the red soup over the grilled fish. Instantly, an enticing aroma filled the air. The fragrance of cumin, the spiciness of the red oil, and a sprinkle of cilantro as decoration, a look- and taste-appealing grilled fish was ready.
Ni Yang brought the grilled fish to the table and lit the small stove. Immediately, the red oil soup in the grilled fish started to boil and the aroma became even stronger. At this time, she added the side dishes and you could eat while dipping in the soup.
When Ni Chenggui walked in, he was immediately shocked by this enticing aroma, “Yangyang, what are we eating today? It smells so good!”
Ni Yang smiled and said, “Ni aunt, we’re eating grilled fish today.”
Ni Chenggui had had braised fish, steamed fish, sour fish, and even sashimi, but he had never had grilled fish! No need to think about it, he knew this taste must be amazing!
Upon hearing this, Ni Chenggui couldn’t wait and said, “I’ll go wash my hands.”
Grilled fish is different from sour fish, it’s numbing and spicy at first bite, then crispy on the outside and tender inside. It’s so soft that it melts in your mouth as you take a light bite!
Even the side dishes boiled in the soup are so delicious that people doubt their life!
After finishing a pot of grilled fish, the soup left in the pot can be eaten with several bowls of rice.
Why can fish be made so delicious?
Ni Chenggui was almost crying!
“Yangyang, I have nothing else to say! Just two words, phenomenal!” Ni Chenggui held a thumbs up to Ni Yang.
Ni Yang laughed and said, “It’s good that you like it, Ni Auntie.”
Although Ni Cuihua didn’t say anything, she was equally shocked. She thought the sour fish was already delicious! To her surprise, the taste of this grilled fish made it irresistible! In comparison, she felt that the food she used to eat at the Mu family was not even as good as pig’s food…
After the meal, Ni Chenggui finally had the chance to discuss something important, “By the way, Yangyang, two of my colleagues want me to buy your aloe vera gel and facial cleanser for them. Do you sell those?”
The results of the facial cleanser and aloe vera gel that Ni Yang made were incredibly good. Not only could it make the skin smooth, but it also made the skin more elastic and made their skin look rejuvenated!
This caused wherever she went, people would ask her what brand of skincare she was using.
“Of course, I sell it!” Ni Yang nodded.
Ni Chenggui asked again, “How much are they?”
Ni Yang replied, “The facial cleanser is 15, and the aloe vera gel is 20.”
