Cultivation of Immortals Begins with Drilling Wood To Make Fire

At this time, the young man said a little embarrassingly:

"I was a little anxious to say goodbye yesterday. I haven't asked your name yet. My mother scolded me. This is a bit rude. Let me apologize."

Fang Chang glanced at the young man, then smiled and said:

"I can't be rude. My surname is Fang, so the name doesn't matter. Just call me Shopkeeper Fang."

The young man nodded quickly, and didn't dare to ask any more questions. He looked at Fang Chang who was about to get busy, and asked cleverly, "Treasurer Fang, what can I do?"

Seeing that the young man had quickly entered the learning state, Chang Fang started from the beginning and said, "Well, help me arrange these things and light the fire. I'll tell you what these things do."

Hearing this, the young man was greatly encouraged.

He immediately stepped forward to help Fang Chang move the stove, light the fire, mix batter, and chop green onions. He was so busy that he was sweating profusely.

The weather is very hot today. Now that the sun has come out, everyone who works is exuding heat from the inside out. Only the continuous sweat can make people cool down.

After the stall was set up and the fire heated up the iron plate, Fang Chang handed over a bamboo tube:

"Here's water for you. Remember to drink plenty of water in hot weather, otherwise you won't be able to withstand the sun. Have you eaten in the morning?"

Yang Yiyuan was obviously thirsty, he politely thanked him for taking the bamboo tube, raised his head and gulped it down, then wiped his mouth, returned the bamboo tube to Fang Chang, and replied:

"I drank a bowl of porridge in the morning."

"Well, watch my next move and wait for me to share with you." Fang Chang said to the young man, "Look, after the iron plate is heated, first wipe it off and apply a very thin layer of oil, and then put the Scoop a good batter into a flat spoon—regardless of the size of the spoon, you must ensure that there is no more or less each time, so as to control the amount—lightly pour it on the top, and then spread it into a cake. It must be spread evenly... "

The young man carefully watched Fang Chang's movements, listened to his words, and carefully remembered in his heart, for fear of missing half a step and missing a word. Before peeking from the side, the movement was fast from a long distance, so I could only get a rough look. Now, in order to let myself see clearly, the shopkeeper Fang deliberately set the speed to full speed, which made the young man feel grateful and cherish this opportunity very much.

Fang Chang then asked:

"I have already taught you how to make this batter just now, remember it clearly?"

The young man nodded quickly, and the batter in front of him had completely solidified into a cake due to the heat of the iron plate. Fang Chang immediately picked up an egg from the side, tapped it lightly on the edge, and pinched it into two pieces on the top of the pancake. The egg white and yolk fell instantly. On the cake, it is then broken and spread evenly.

"Sprinkle some green onion on the eggs at this time, which can enhance the fragrance. In fact, it would be better to sprinkle some cooked sesame seeds, but I don't have any materials at hand. The eggs and the fried dough sticks in the next basket are all from the city this morning. I bought it, since you live in the city, you can't raise chickens and lay eggs yourself."

"But if you are willing to spend more time and fry some fried dough sticks as ingredients yourself, it will be much cheaper than buying them from outside. Moreover, the fried dough sticks are wrapped in pancakes, so you don't care much about the appearance. You just need to practice how to use them. The noodle with the least amount of oil, just fry the fritters with a suitable and good taste.”

While talking, he kept moving his hands. He had already turned the pancake over and put the side with eggs and chopped green onion on the bottom. Then he took the sauce from the jar and gently brushed it on the pancake. The amount was just right and thin A thin layer, and then cut the fried dough sticks into two pieces and put them inside.

After the smell of the eggs wafted away, Fang Chang put the four sides together, then took a piece of yellow paper and wrapped it in it.

He asked Yang Yiyuan, a young man next to him: "Have you seen it? The process of doing this?"

Yang Yiyuan nodded: "I can see clearly."

Fang Chang was quite satisfied with the young man's answer, he said:

"That's good, this is not something that can be learned once or twice. After a while, there will be guests, and you will watch while I am doing it. Then I will not slow down like I am now, but you have learned After reading it again, you should be able to keep up."

"When I'm making it, you should think about it carefully. By the way, when the batter is not enough, help me adjust some. When there are few people in the afternoon, I will let you try to make two more. If the one you make is still eye-catching, you will come in the afternoon. Make pancakes for customers."

Hearing that the progress is so fast, young people feel pressured.

However, the young man had the pride of daring to accept the challenge. He nodded immediately and stood there solemnly, ready to wait for customers to come to his door.

Unexpectedly, Chang Fang handed him the pancakes he had just made, and said:

"Come on, eat this. Anyway, there are no customers now, so it won't taste good after it's cooled."

The young man was startled, looked up at Fang Chang and said, "This is not allowed, shopkeeper Fang, you should eat."

Fang Chang shook his head and said: "When I was buying fried dough sticks, I was already full at the stall. If you only drink porridge in the morning, you will be hungry very quickly. If you are hungry, your head will also become stupid. You can eat it to get better. Learn something quickly."

"Besides, since you are here to learn something from me, then you have to listen to me and tell you not to shirk what you do, the same goes for eating pancakes—how do you know what it tastes like if you don't try it yourself?"

Yang Yiyuan was finally persuaded by him, took the pancake with attractive aroma, chewed it silently, feeling the taste of the pancake.

He hadn't eaten it before, he only knew that it smelled delicious, and there were many people who came here to buy pancakes, but now he was a little excited to actually eat them. Thinking that such a delicious snack can be prepared with only a few simple ingredients, he immediately had great confidence in his future business.

The aroma of the pancakes just made spread, and people around were immediately attracted.

A returning customer saw Fang Chang's stall opened, and also came here, planning to buy something to fill his stomach, as breakfast or a second breakfast.

"People are coming, don't worry about eating slowly."

Fang Chang said to the young man, and then turned his head to take care of the customers. Everyone lined up here, and Fang Chang heated up the stove under his feet, and moved his hands quickly. Pancakes were formed one by one from the iron plate, and then Wrapped in yellow paper and sold.

There were jingling sounds in the money basket next to it, and it quickly increased.

After Yang Yiyuan finished eating the pancakes, he immediately walked to the side, while beating Fang Chang cleverly, while carefully watching Fang Chang's every movement, trying to memorize, and trying to understand the reason for such actions. His comprehension was very good, and before noon, he felt that he was somewhat sure.

However, there are the most customers at noon, and Fang Chang's busy hands occasionally show afterimages. Naturally, there is no time for him to try.

It wasn't until ten o'clock in the afternoon, when the sun was at its strongest, that the passers-by on the street had eaten enough and started to take care of their own livelihoods, Fang Chang said to Yang Yiyuan:

"There's no one around right now, so you can make two for our lunch. Well, add an extra egg to each pancake."
