Yang's resume

Yang is from Yangjiazhai Village, Xuzhuang Township, jizhou city City, Hebei Province. When I was a child, I came to Beijing to make a living because my family was poor. When I first came, I bought and sold raw chickens and ducks on a street in the meat market outside Qianmen. Yang knows the methods of selling ducks like the back of his hand, and his business is booming. He scrimps and saves on weekdays, and his accumulated money snowballs. Every day when Yang goes to the meat market to set up a stall to sell chickens and ducks, he will pass by a dried fruit shop called "Dejuquan". Although the signboard of this store is eye-catching, its business is declining.

After three years of Tongzhi (1864), the business of "Dejuquan" dried fruit shop collapsed and was on the verge of bankruptcy. Smart Yang seized this opportunity, took out his savings for many years, and bought the "Dejuquan" shop. What brand name should I have if I have my own shop? Yang invited a Mr. Feng Shui to discuss. The gentleman walked around the shop twice, suddenly stopped, twisted his beard and said, "Oh, this is really a land of feng shui!" " Look at the two alleys on both sides of this shop, just like two sedan chairs. Building a building in the future is like eight sedan chairs, and the future is limitless! Mr. Feng Shui rolled his eyes and said, "However, in the past, this store was very unlucky and it was difficult to get rid of bad luck. Only by reversing the old font name of' De Ju Quan' can we embark on the smooth road. "

Yang's words made me smile. The name "Quanjude" is just to his liking. On the one hand, his name has the word "power", on the other hand, "gathering virtue" means gathering virtue, which can flaunt one's career or talk about virtue. So he named the shop "Quanjude" and asked the scholar Qian Zilong to write the three characters "Quanjude" and made a gold plaque to hang on the lintel.

Under the careful management of Yang, Quanjude's business is thriving. Yang knows that if you want to prosper, you must rely on a good cook, a good waiter and a good shopkeeper. He often goes to various roast duck restaurants to explore the secrets of roast duck and visit the master of roast duck. When he learned that Jinhua Pavilion, which specializes in making royal roast duck for the imperial court, had an old master named Sun, he made great efforts to make friends with him, often drinking and playing chess together, and their relationship became closer and closer. Master Sun was finally persuaded by Yang and was hired to Quanjude with a large sum of money.

Quanjude hired Master Sun, which is equivalent to mastering all the techniques of hanging roast duck in Qing Palace. Master Sun changed the original oven into a hanging oven. The oven has a large height and a wide hearth, and one oven can roast more than a dozen ducks. You can also roast duck facing inward. The roast duck baked by him is beautiful in appearance, plump and full, bright in color, purplish red in color, crispy and tender in skin, crispy and delicious, fat but not greasy, thin and not firewood, which has won the reputation of "delicious in Beijing, better than duck" for Quanjude roast duck and gradually become another food brand in Beijing.
