The business of Guoqiang's store has become even more prosperous since April.
Not only workers from the agricultural machinery factory came to eat, but also people from several units in the town started to come here.
Workers from the supply and marketing cooperative, the post and telecommunications office, and even the chefs from the town government cafeteria came to eat secretly.
I still learned to make it when I went back, but no matter how I tried it, I couldn't make it taste like Lin Guoqiang.
Someone asked Lin Guoqiang: "Master Lin, what ingredients did you put in this braised pork? Why is it so fragrant?"
Lin Guoqiang smiled and said nothing.
It wasn't that he was hiding it, it was that it was useless even if he said it.
Even if I tell you the recipe for braised pork, the heat, time, and texture cannot be mastered just by listening to it.
In his previous life, when he worked as a cook in the county town for more than ten years, he watched Master Sun make hundreds of pots of braised pork, and he practiced it countless times before he got the taste he has today.
On April 10th, Lin Guoqiang settled the accounts.
After opening the store for more than three months, after excluding costs, rent, and wages, the net profit was nearly 3,000 yuan.
Three thousand dollars.
In rural areas in 1981, this was a lot of money.
If a strong laborer works in the production team for a year, the dividend at the end of the year will only be about 100 yuan.
In three months, he made what others had earned in 20 or 30 years.
Lin Guoqiang divided the money into several parts.
He set aside two thousand yuan as working capital, saved three hundred yuan for emergencies, and planned to spend some of the remaining several hundred yuan.
"Zhijun, come with me to the county town tomorrow."
Zhao Zhijun was cleaning the table. When he heard this, his eyes lit up: "Why are you going to the county town?"
"Buy something."
"What to buy?"
"You'll know when we get there."
Zhao Zhijun chuckled and wiped the table harder without asking any questions.
Early the next morning, Lin Guoqiang and Zhao Zhijun took the town's tractor to the county seat.
When he arrived at the county town, Lin Guoqiang first went to the department store.
He stopped at the bike counter and looked at the row of brand new bikes behind the glass counter.
Flying Pigeon, Forever, and Phoenix were lined up one by one, the black paint on the frames shining brightly under the fluorescent lamps.
"Comrade, how much does this 28-inch big bar cost?"
Lin Guoqiang pointed to a black permanent car.
"One hundred and eighty." The salesman didn't even raise his head.
"Where's the women's car?"
He pointed to a small bicycle next to him. The frame was curved and dark green in color. There was a red plastic streamer tied to the handlebars.
"Phoenix brand, twenty-six inches, one hundred and six inches."
Lin Guoqiang thought for a while, took out a wad of money from his pocket, counted three hundred and forty yuan, and put it on the counter.
"I want both."
