Transmigration: To Be His Man-Chapter 47 Tasty Restaurant
The things that happened in front of the house soon reached Qin Mian's ears, but he did not take it to heart at all. On the other side of the old residence, he couldn't avoid in time. In the future, it would be best if Lei Daqiang and the Madam Du didn't provoke him and Lei Tia again. If anyone offends me, I will not offend them. If anyone offends me, I will definitely become a prisoner.
After the well was completed, Qin Mian and Lei Tia drove the oxcart to the town. In order to advertise their "delicious" food in the restaurant, Qin Mian specially drew twenty flyers, on top of them was a hotpot and on the bottom a spicy hot pot, and at the bottom was the address of the restaurant and the opening time. The promotional painting was very realistic and looked very appetizing. It was all thanks to the fact that he had studied painting for three years in his previous life before being able to paint so well. It took him a day just to paint them. When they entered the town, he and Lei Tia stuck the painting to a conspicuous place in the town. He left two and posted one in front of the store.
In order to save time, Qin Mian went to the Dental Hall and invited a worker called Zheng Liu. His home was in town, and he was only fourteen years old. It was agreed that he would get five hundred gold coins every month. He would get a bonus if he did well. Qin Mian had once asked around, but this month's money was already higher than that of an average worker. As long as the shop assistant was honest with himself, he didn't mind being generous.
Returning to the shop, Qin Mian gave the last promotional picture to Zheng Liu and told him to beat the gong on the street while shouting, "Delicious food at the eatery".
Qin Mian and Lei Tia stayed in the shop, busy preparing the pork and vegetable pills.
Zheng Liu paced back and forth in the town, and every time he passed by the store's entrance, he would hear's clear and light voice say, "The restaurant will open for business tomorrow, and all the delicious food will be sold at 10% off, both the hot and hot pots." The restaurant will open for business tomorrow, and the delicious food will be served at 10% off the hot and hot pots!
"He does look like a reliable person." Qin Mian said to Lei Tia as he rubbed the pills.
Lei Tia said: "Long time no see."
More than two hours later, Zheng Liu finally stepped into the store.
"Two bosses, I'm back."
Qin Mian said: "It's been hard on you. Are you thirsty? Pour some water for yourself. "
"Thank you, Little Boss."
Qin Mian took a glance at Lei Tia, and said with a stern expression: "I am the big boss, and he is Little Boss."
Zheng Liu was startled, he looked at Lei Tia suspiciously, and muttered in his heart: Was it the other way round?
Lei Tia nodded, "He's the big boss."
Qin Mian said smugly, "Did you hear that?"
"Yes, Big Boss." Zheng Liu replied happily. After drinking the water, he consciously squatted beside the large wooden basin and helped with the vegetables.
The kitchen had a corner door that led to the back of the house. There was a well at the back of the house that was shared by several families nearby. It was very convenient to wash the vegetables.
Qin Mian instructed Zheng Liu, "You must wash all the vegetables. If I find worms or rotten leaves in there, I'll make trouble for you. "
Zheng Liu patted his chest and said: "Big boss, don't worry. If you find insects or rotten leaves in the vegetables I've washed, you can just kick me out. "
"Yes." Qin Mian kept rubbing the pills, "We do the food business, we are just afraid that the food will not be clean, you know that even without me saying. However, you don't have to be too nervous. If you do well, I, your big boss, will reward you. "
"Yes sir!"
After that, the three of them did not continue their conversation.
After the pills were done, Qin Mian taught Lei Tia and Zheng Liu how to cook.
"The bamboo sticks with red lacquer are used for skewers of meat dishes, while the bamboo sticks with no red lacquer are used for strings of vegetarian dishes. This can be convenient for us to collect money, meat dishes two pieces of money a string, vegetables one piece of money a string. When you collect money, count the bamboo sticks. Pork balls, four on a stick; vegetable balls, four; fillets of fish, four; pork balls, four; potato chips, six... "As for the noodles, each piece is worth two coins..."
The pot in the kitchen was cooking until it gurgled. When Qin Mian went in to stir it, the fragrance was even stronger.
Zheng Liu took a deep breath, "It smells so good! Big Boss, what did you cook? "
Qin Mian said: "Big Bone Soup. Our hotpot and spicy gluten are not suitable for breakfast. The shop will be open for business at around three-quarters of an hour, and Little Boss and I will be here early, so we'll bring the dishes over as well. Little Boss and I will be in charge of making the pills. Your job in the future will be to boil the large bone soup you want to use every morning, wash the dishes, and make the concoction. After opening the door, the store was in charge of receiving guests. "Since you've put in a lot of effort today, you should eat di
er with us before returning."
Zheng Liu was overjoyed, glad that he had found a good owner, "Thank you Big Boss, thank you Little Boss!"
Qin Mian praised him secretly for being clever, and did not miss Lei Tia. He glanced at Lei Tia and could not help but smile, and joked: "Little Boss, put in more effort. Otherwise, it will be dark by the time we get home from di
er. "
Lei Tia looked at the remaining bamboo sticks, there were about 40 of them, he stood up and said, "I will go cook di
er."
Qin Mian said: "Boil the spicy hot spicy perm. Save the time. Just cook the noodles together with the noodles. "
By the time Qin Mian and Lei Tia returned home, the sky was already completely dark. At dawn the next day, the two of them once again drove to town. On the car, there were noodles made with a noodle machine, so they also bought some food first. When he returned to the store, he bought some steamed buns for breakfast.
Zheng Liu was a diligent person, he appeared at the entrance of the shop at almost the same time as them. The three of them had breakfast, each with their own division of labour.
Just at this moment, Lei Tia lit up the firecracker and took off the red cloth on the signboard with Qin Mian.
There were a total of eight tables in the restaurant, and four tables in the restaurant were used to entertain customers eating hotpot. These four tables were modified by Qin Mian when he brought them in to the woodshop. Each table had a charcoal stove embedded inside to cook the hotpot. The four tables outside the restaurant were provided to customers who were eating hot and spicy food.
The big pot of hot and spicy Ma La was placed at the entrance. After the thick soup with hot pot was boiled, the rich fragrance drifted in all directions along with the autumn wind, causing people in the distance to look over with curiosity.
Yesterday's promotions were quite effective, and soon, a group of people swarmed into the store.
Zheng Liu shouted loudly, "Delicious hotpot and spicy hot pot, try to eat it a second time!"
There were three levels of shelves in front of the door and all sorts of vegetables were lined up on them. Seeing a young noble who was around twenty years old looking around curiously at the various dishes on the wooden shelf, Zheng Liu immediately took out an empty small wooden basket and passed it to him, "Delicious Ma La Pao, a vegetable dish costs a string of coins and a meat dish costs two coins each! Cheap and delicious. Young Master, you can pick whatever you want to eat. "
The young master picked up all the vegetables he wanted to eat and put them into the basket, then handed them to Lei Tia at the entrance for him to cook.
Not long after, a second person arrived. A third person ??
"Buddy, we brothers want to eat hotpot!" Four burly men in short-sleeved shirts walked into the store.
Zheng Liu quickly ran over, "Masters, please sit. We have all the dishes on that shelf in our restaurant, you guys can order them immediately after you've finished ordering. "
"Fish fillet, pork ball, pork ball ??"
Zheng Liu listened and nodded. After waiting for the customers to order the dishes, he quickly ran to the kitchen and brought the ingredients onto the table. With the addition of the black charcoal, the fire became even hotter. Soon, the broth in the pot began to boil, and the fragrance lingered in the air.
On the table outside the restaurant, a man was eating a spicy hot spicy perm, and he was full of praise. "Delicious." It's both hot and numb. It's so spicy and satisfying! "
More and more people came, and soon, there were no empty seats.
Qin Mian watched the scene with a smile. From the looks of it, the turnover today would not be bad.
"Boss, the bill." A young couple waved at Qin Mian.
Qin Mian immediately walked over, "Coming."
He glanced at the bamboo sticks on the table and smiled. "Seven bunches of vegetables and six bunches of meat, a total of nineteen coins. After twenty percent discount, it's fifteen coins. Thank you so much for your patronage, please come back next time."
The couple happily paid the bill, and after only two steps, their seats were taken by the new customer.
An old man with a short beard and two boys around the age of ten walked in. When he saw that there were no more empty seats in the shop, he frowned and asked in dissatisfaction, "There are no seats left?" f𝔯𝒆𝚎𝚠𝑒𝚋𝓃૦νℯƖ.co𝘮
Qin Mian went forward to welcome the three guests, "Welcome, guests. From the looks of it, the three of them should be from the town. Would you like some hot pot or a spicy hot spicy perm? The hotpot was the same as the spicy hot soup. It was equally delicious. If the three of you were to eat hot pot, I am afraid you will have to wait. If you were to eat hot pot, you can pack up and go home.
The old man could not help but laugh, he sized him up, "You, Little Boss, sure know how to save trouble."
Qin Mian also laughed, "I'm just speaking the truth."
"Grandfather, I don't want to wait." The bigger boy pulled the old man's hand and hinted.
The old man looked at him with a smile, "Then let's eat the Ma La Pao."
Qin Mian gestured, "Please come in, pick whatever you want to eat."
Qin Mian did not expect that the packed seating lasted until the sun went down in the west. Some of the nearby residents even brought a bowl for themselves to eat the Ma La Pao.
"Big Boss, we ran out of hot and spicy dishes!" Zheng Liu reported in time, using the cloth around his neck to wipe the sweat off his face, and quietly rubbed his stomach. There were too many customers today. Not only him, the two bosses were too busy to eat lunch and had been starving until now.
Qin Mian was both happy and worried, "It sold out so quickly? It was too late to do anything about it now. Forget it. When the dishes are used up, close the door. "
After serving two more hot pot customers, the dishes in the kitchen ran out.
Lei Tia asked Zheng Liu to close the shop.
Qin Mian looked at the sky and regretfully said: "Our estimates are still too conservative, if we were to sell it for another two hours we could earn a lot of money."
Lei Tia comforted her: "Just prepare more dishes tomorrow."
Qin Mian thought about it and felt the same way. He looked at the silver and copper coins in the drawer happily and took out 10 copper coins to hand to Zheng Liu, "Xiao Liuzi, go buy some steamed buns. I will count the money with your Little Boss."
"Alright."
Qin Mian divided the money into two piles. He counted one pile, Lei Tia counted one pile.
