Chapter 269 Tripe
Seeing the expressions on their faces, Lee Seungri thought to himself, “Let’s see if you guys will eat it after I make it.”

Just as Li Shengli was feeling a little indignant and the other four were feeling a little embarrassed, the five of them enjoyed a meal of delicious and tender hot pot meat.

After the meal, Li Shengli paid the bill and prepared to go back and study it carefully. The peppers and chili peppers needed for the hot pot needed to be purchased again, and many things were hard to find.

After a good night's sleep, Li Shengli went to the vegetable market the next day to buy some groceries. After arriving at the restaurant, he taught his two new apprentices some skills. Then he rode his bicycle to the bank and made an appointment with the bank staff to withdraw money the next day.

"Are you going to withdraw all this money?" The bank staff held Li Shengli's passbook and looked at him in disbelief with wide eyes.

My God, what is this person trying to do by taking out so much at once?

This person has worked in the bank for a long time, but this is the first time he has seen someone withdraw so much money at one time.

"Look at what you said, of course you withdraw money for consumption." Li Shengli was not annoyed. Even in later generations, people would ask you this question when you went to withdraw money, not to mention that it is the 1980s and what you withdrew is not a small amount. One hundred thousand yuan in the 1980s is equivalent to how much money in later generations.

After hearing what the bank staff said, the people who were doing business in the bank looked at Li Shengli in surprise, wondering how much money this man was withdrawing and how surprised the staff was.

"Can I pick it up tomorrow?" Li Shengli looked at the staff in front of him calmly.

"Yes, of course." The bank staff member retracted her surprised look, but the way she looked at Lee Seung-ri gradually became a little strange. There was something wrong with the way Lee Seung-ri looked at her, and he felt a little uneasy. If he hadn't seen that the staff member was quite old, Lee Seung-ri would have thought that she had a crush on him.

In fact, what the staff member in front of him was thinking in his heart was to find out more about Lee Seung-ri's family situation. It would be great if he could become a relative of Lee Seung-ri, who is so rich and old.

In the end, Li Shengli left the bank with some fear amid the staff member's enthusiastic smile.

After leaving the bank, Li Shengli planned to open his own hot pot restaurant. Nowadays, most of the hot pot restaurants opened in the old city serve the most authentic copper hot pot. Li Shengli wanted to try out whether there was a market for Sichuan hot pot first.

Thinking of this, Li Shengli remembered the most important things in Sichuan hotpot: beef oil, chili pepper and Pixian bean paste, and the other spices are regular spices.

Li Shengli thought about it and there were still a few strings of dried chilies hanging in his kitchen. He also cooked Sichuan cuisine at home, so he had Pixian bean paste at home. What was lacking at home was beef tallow, which he had to make himself. Moreover, tripe also required the rumen of the cow.

As a chef, Li Chunli often deals with people in these slaughterhouses. Li Shengli also knows that it is easier to meet the devil than to deal with the devil. He has a good relationship with the people in these factories.

Although beef tallow is not easy to get, Li Shengli still managed to get five kilograms of beef tallow through his own connections. As for the rumen of a cow, almost no one wants it. Now no one is saying that the price of tripe will be raised for hot pot. Now these things are in a state of half-sale and half-giveaway.

Li Shengli bought two sets without hesitation. You can't just take half of it just to eat the tripe. The people in the slaughterhouse won't separate it properly for you.

After the tripe, the next thing to get is the cow's throat. This thing is the aorta above the cow's heart. Generally, no one eats it. Li Shengli easily got a lot of cow's throat from the factory.

I simply cleaned the cow's stomach and threw out everything inside, but it wasn't cleaned thoroughly yet, so I had to go back to the courtyard to do the next step.

In addition to these, Li Shengli also bought some tender lamb meat. Meat alone is not enough, this hot pot must have some green vegetables, so Li Shengli rode his bike to the vegetable market and bought some lettuce, mushrooms, frozen tofu, and other vegetables. Li Shengli carried these things back to the courtyard.

"Oh, what's that smell?" Yan Bugui was tidying up his pots of flowers and plants at his doorstep when Li Shengli walked into the yard carrying two pairs of ox stomachs and beef throats. Li Shengli had simply processed the ox stomachs, and there was still a little smell on them.

"Hey, Li Shengli, you're no longer eating meat but are eating tripe instead." Yan Bugui was a little gloating. Could it be that Li Shengli's restaurant lost money and now he has no money to eat meat and can only eat tripe?

Li Shengli put the meat he bought into a bag and Yan Bugui didn't see it.

Li Shengli glanced at Yan Bugui indifferently and ignored him. He just snorted in his heart and said, "You'll be in trouble later."

Li Shengli took out a large basin from his home and took a bucket to get water from the faucet. Li Shengli planned to give it a quick clean to remove everything on the cow's stomach.

Li Shengli didn't plan to wash it directly in the central courtyard. Jia Zhang's bad mouth was really annoying. What's more, Li Shengli couldn't do the smell of washing a cow stomach in front of the faucet. It was better when he was at home.

Li Shengli washed the cow's stomach twice with water to remove the smell. After washing, only some cow smell remained on the cow's stomach.

Next, Li Shengli put the cow stomach in a basin and placed it under the pool in the middle courtyard. He rinsed it with water and scrubbed it vigorously with his hands.

"Some people don't know how to live a good life. Now they can't even afford meat." Jia Zhang became interested when she saw Li Shengli cleaning the cow tripe. She pretended to be washing clothes and made sarcastic remarks.

"Oh my, I said I should have cleaned here just now. They say a dog will always eat shit, and some people come here just because they smell the smell." Li Shengli would not tolerate Jia Zhangshi. The more she talked, the more excited she would get. Only by confronting her head-on would he not be offended.

"Who are you calling a dog?" Jia Zhang became angry. This man was making an indirect accusation and thought she didn't hear it.

"Well, whoever agrees will be the one to say it." Li Shengli retorted while busying himself with the things in his hands, "By the way, I advise some people not to swear so much. There are no masters in the courtyard now. If anyone scolds me, I will give him a slap in the face."

Everyone in this courtyard knew Jia Zhang's character very well. Li Shengli took a glance at Jia Zhang's face and knew that she was about to start scolding.

"Oh, by the way, I almost forgot. Now I am not afraid of being blackmailed by others. If someone really provokes me, I will beat them to death. As long as I am not killed, it is no problem to cripple them." Li Shengli added lightly.

Jia Zhang's face suddenly turned red. She might not believe what others said, but Li Shengli really dared to hit people. He dared to hit people when there were three uncles in the yard before. Now that Yi Zhonghai is no longer a uncle, he dares to do it even more.

The most important thing is that everyone in the yard knows that Li Shengli has made a lot of money since he opened the restaurant. Now he is not afraid of being blackmailed by others. And with Li Shengli's temper, if someone blackmails him, he will really beat them to death.

Jia Zhang didn't dare to speak, but she felt a little annoyed. Tell me why you provoke him.
