Chapter 546: A rare kindness
"Tell me, what bullshit suggestions do you have?"
When mentioning the advice given by Li Shengli, Sha Zhu felt a little annoyed. Jia Zhang was doing just what Sha Zhu had learned from Li Shengli.
"What do you mean by bullshit advice? Let me tell you, my advice is actually insightful."
Li Shengli was not very satisfied. He always made suggestions for the good of Sha Zhu, but Sha Zhu never listened to him.
"Okay, okay, tell me what you say."
Sha Zhu really couldn't imagine what his life would become.
"Silly Zhu, have you ever eaten this pancake outside?"
"Of course I've eaten pancakes. This is something I only eat on ordinary days. It's pretty good for breakfast and midnight snacks."
How could Shazhu have never eaten this thing?
"Silly Zhu, didn't you think about doing this business in the morning?"
Li Shengli began to encourage Sha Zhu. This thing is easy to make, the cost is not high, and most importantly, there are many varieties.
In later generations, there are all kinds of dishes stuffed in the food, and every place has its own flavor.
"That thing is not rare at all. It is sold outside now. It would be too cheap for me to make that thing."
Sha Zhu shook his head. He didn't think such a stall could make much money.
"Silly Zhu, you really don't have any business sense at all. Look at the regular pancakes out there. Why don't you make some innovations? For example, add eggs, sausages, tofu and meat jerky, etc."
What Li Shengli was talking about were the breakfasts that made a lot of money in later generations. As long as you find the right place for this kind of thing, the money will come in.
"That's not a pancake. A real pancake should be mung bean flour with fried dough sticks in it."
After hearing what Li Shengli said, Sha Zhu's face was full of disgust. He had been a chef for so long and had never heard of this kind of pancake making method.
"Are you stupid? No wonder your nickname is Shazhu."
Li Shengli looked at Sha Zhu with a look of a fool and couldn't help but complain.
"Li Shengli, don't think I won't beat you up just because I owe you money."
Sha Zhu was getting a little anxious.
"You can pull me down."
Li Shengli looked at him with disdain.
"You couldn't beat me when your arm wasn't injured, let alone now that your arm is injured."
"So, you injured your arm for the three children of the Jia family. Do you regret it now?"
Li Shengli stabbed Sha Zhu's wound again.
Sha Zhu gave Li Shengli a resentful look, which made Li Shengli shiver uncontrollably and get goose bumps all over his body.
"Regret, what do you regret?"
Sha Zhu said this with forced stubbornness.
"Okay, I won't argue with you. Whether you regret it or not, this is just my little suggestion."
Li Shengli was too lazy to argue with Sha Zhu, he just gave him a suggestion on a whim.
"Nowadays, most people are young, and they are tired of eating old-fashioned pancakes. Besides, people's lives are better now, and they pay more attention to the combination of meat and vegetables. Of course, not many people eat the old dry pancakes with sauce. Only older people like it."
Li Shengli understands very well that in the current market, the real main consumers are those in their twenties and thirties.
Li Shengli's statement has been verified by the market, otherwise why would the old pancakes in later generations also have to be added with eggs and meat.
"It's not as easy as you say."
Shazhu still didn't believe it. Now Li Shengli couldn't help it. You can doubt whether he came to see the joke, but you can't doubt him on such a professional matter.
After all, Lee Seung-ri has been a chef for decades. How could he tolerate such professional doubts?
"You wait here."
Li Shengli stood up and looked around, and there were indeed vendors selling multi-grain pancakes nearby.
"It's fine if you don't believe it, I'll spread this idea out now, and then you can just follow others and eat dust."
Li Shengli was also angry. He originally thought that they knew each other after all, and this was the way to make a fortune. Since you, Shazhu, didn't want it, then I would give it away.
The recipe for this snack, especially the pancake recipe, cannot be kept secret from anyone.
If someone says that he can make money from this, it doesn't fit Lee Seung-ri's current identity. He is now a big entrepreneur and has opened several factories in his family. It would be too cheap for him to come out and sell pancakes.
There is no patent for this snack. The most important thing is that Lee Seung-ri has discovered that there are already improved pancakes out there.
It’s just that most of the stalls nowadays still stick to tradition.
So Li Shengli started to walk around the entire night market.
After a while, Li Shengli got everything he wanted.
Not to mention lettuce and eggs, barbecue is also ready.
So Li Shengli took his things to the pancake shop and borrowed his equipment.
The pancake seller was originally not happy about it because this was his livelihood.
It’s just that what Lee Seung-ri gave was too much, so he gave up his position readily.
Li Shengli spread the multi-grain flour very skillfully, and when it was cooked to perfection, he added the eggs.
Then add the sauce, fried dough sticks and the like.
It didn’t take long before a pancake that was a bit unconventional from the traditional one was ready.
In just a short while, a lot of people gathered around Li Shengli.
"Master, give me one too."
Someone who wanted to do something nice shouted loudly, no matter how big the event.
This pancake looks so tempting.
Li Shengli ignored them, but the original stall owner shouted and asked him to have one too.
Li Shengli's movements are more skillful than those of a man who specializes in selling pancakes.
But he did learn Li Shengli's techniques.
"You guys can help yourself. The essence of this pancake is to add whatever you like to it."
Li Shengli rolled out the pancakes and wrapped them in a paper bag, then casually gave out his secret.
If Lee Seung-ri was still a small vendor, he would never tell others such things easily, but it doesn't matter now, and don't underestimate people's ability to imitate.
As long as this pancake is delicious, it will be known all over the streets in less than a week.
Li Shengli took the pancakes he had made and returned to Sha Zhu's stall.
"Eat it and try it to see if what I said is right or wrong."
Li Shengli casually handed half of the pancake to Sha Zhu.
"Hey, I didn't expect I'd have the chance to taste Chef Li's cooking again."
Shazhu is a man who will die if he doesn't talk too much. Even if he gets the pancakes from Lee Seungri's stall, he still has to complain.
