Chapter 56: Grocery shopping with Jiang Hua

Originally, early this morning, Zhang Tong was going to buy ingredients for Niu Ben and his mother Niu Xiaoli to make soy sauce and Western food. But as soon as he opened the door early in the morning, he happened to bump into Jiang Hua.

It seems that Jiang Hua still wants to knock on the door of his house. Zhang Tong greeted Jiang Hua: "Yo, morning, Comrade Xiaojiang." I got up so early, and my store hasn't opened yet. Although my food is delicious, I don't sell breakfast. ”

Zhang Tong thought that Jiang Hua had come to breakfast, of course, this was a joke.

Jiang Hua already knew that the Boss Zhang in front of him was a person who liked to be witty, and his mentality was also positive and optimistic. So she didn't care about Zhang Tong and her jokes.

Jiang Hua said with a somewhat solemn face: "Lao Zhang, you come out." I have something to tell you. ”

Zhang Tong looked at Jiang Hua's serious expression and asked with some curiosity: "What's the matter?"

Jiang Hua pulled Zhang Tong's shoulder close to Zhang Tong's ear and whispered, "That's the case, I just got the news." That Teacher Ji is Ji Xiaochun, who I took him to your store before and paid 50,000 yuan to eat king crab, you remember. ”

"Of course I remember, great man. So expensive king crab is wrapped up by one person. Zhang Tong was very grateful to Ji Xiaochun for his generosity, allowing him to earn 50,000 yuan. The money was the same as the one he picked up, and the day after he got the money, he bought himself a laptop and an oven for the store. It cost 10,000 yuan at once.

This kind of bold guest made all the profits of Zhang Tong's plan for a month at once, and there are more. Zhang Tong plans that the profit of his small shop should be about 500 a day at the beginning, and after a few months and a half, there will be more returning customers, and it should stabilize at about 1,000 to 1500.

When the profit stabilizes at 1,000 a day, I have to hire a helper to help. Because the rent doesn't cost money, it should be about 30,000 to 40,000 yuan per month. That's pretty much it.

In Huaihai, he is not very wealthy, but because he has his own house, Zhang Tong does not need to worry about the biggest expense of buying a house. He had already asked, and the current valuation of his store was more than 18 million! Tsk, he was also a dead rich man.

As long as there is a profit of 30,000 or 40,000 yuan a month, you can still live a very comfortable life.

However, this profit takes time to accumulate slowly, and he has just stabilized the daily profit at 500 per day in the past few days of opening the store. Although the store has not been open for a long time, word of mouth has begun to come out. Many white-collar workers who came to his house for dinner after work in the neighborhood have become repeat customers.

There are also many people who have told Zhang Tong that they want him to be able to do Meituan and Ele.me at noon. But Zhang Tong is troublesome, because his menu is not the same every day, and it will be very troublesome if he has to use his mobile phone to modify the menu and pricing every day. He's not familiar with these software yet.

So Zhang Tong temporarily gave up the takeaway. It's better to maintain a profit of 500 a day for the time being.

However, Ji Xiaochun's arrival made a small fortune in his small shop in advance, although Ji Xiaochun was a little crooked about Jiang Hua, but this kind of God of Wealth was still good.

So when Jiang Hua said Ji Xiaochun, Zhang Tong naturally remembered.

Jiang Hua said to Ji Xiaochun seriously: "Teacher Ji was uncomfortable after eating your king crab that day. ”

"Ahh Didn't we both eat? Zhang Tong immediately said that his food was fine.

Jiang Hua shook his head: "No, it's not a matter of eating." It was Mr. Ji's own physical problems. ”

Zhang Tong raised his eyebrows: "I said that he is indeed kidney deficiency." "Zhang Tong's inner OS: blood urine scare and scare him! This trick should work.

"Oops, it's not kidney deficiency. It is the big three yangs, that is, hepatitis B. Jiang Hua pulled Zhang Tong: "This is contagious, we had dinner with him that day." Although he used different utensils and didn't touch his things, he should check it out. ”

Jiang Hua recently wondered why Ji Xiaochun hadn't been here for a few days, she went to Ji Xiaochun's research room and the Huaihai University Medical School where she taught, and she learned that Ji Xiaochun was hospitalized for hepatitis B and cirrhosis.

Well, I wish Teacher Ji a speedy recovery. But she thought about it, no! I had dinner with him, so I had to check it myself, otherwise I would have fallen for the hepatitis B virus, and there would be no reason.

This matter was really urgent, so Jiang Hua had to take half a day off to deal with this matter. And she ran to Zhang Tong early in the morning and took him to do a virus test.

Fortunately, Zhang Tong didn't have time to eat in the morning, and after hearing Jiang Hua say this, she happened to be pulled down by her to the Central Hospital of Puda District for a blood test.

In order to know the results early, I also did an urgent examination. But fortunately, both of them tested negative.

But after waiting for so long, the store can't be opened at noon today. Zhang Tong shook his head helplessly, it seemed that it was really not easy for him to get a sum of money from Teacher Ji, and it would delay his business for a day.

However, it is rare to have the opportunity to come out with Jiang Hua, although they came out to see a doctor together, Zhang Tong can also find a chance to talk.

When the test results came out, it was already past 11 o'clock in the afternoon. Zhang Tong said to Jiang Hua: "I haven't eaten all morning. Let's go and eat something in my store. Just take a break after eating, and you'll be on your way to work in the afternoon. ”

Jiang Hua didn't refuse, she was already hungry.

However, Jiang Hua was curious that Zhang Tong did not walk directly in the direction of his own store, but walked to the other side. Jiang Hua asked, "It's a mistake, it's another direction." ”

"Yes, yes. I still have to buy groceries. Let's go to the wet market and see what you like to eat. Zhang Tong sent out an invitation: "You look at what you like to eat and buy." ”

Zhang Tong smiled brightly, Jiang Hua had an illusion that Zhang Tong was not an invitation to him for a date.

But it's a strange date, and if someone else is going on a date, it's either a movie theater or a stylish restaurant, or a café. Well, it's actually a bit of a distraction.

Walking in the vegetable market, Zhang Tong greeted some familiar vegetable sellers: "Oh, this baby cabbage is good today." It looks pretty fresh. Yo, this river tuanyu is very spiritual. This pork chop is ready, cut me fifty pieces. ”

Zhang Tong was familiar with the selection of dishes, and at the same time asked Jiang Hua: "Xiao Jiang, what do you like to eat?" Zhang Tong's inquiry was very skillful, and there was no flattering meaning at all. It's as if everything is as it should be, without any politeness.

This is a way of communication that can make people feel relaxed, Jiang Hua said unconsciously: "The big chop is very good, do you want to sell the big chop today?"

"Yes, I'm going to make a soy sauce Western food for my little chubby Ding today. So prepare some big chops," Zhang Tong bought some potatoes at a stall selling vegetables.

"Who is Teacher Chubby?" Jiang Hua followed Zhang Tong around the vegetable market, and this Zhang gave people an involuntary feeling of relaxation. When Jiang Hua walked with him, there was a real feeling of being with an old friend again.

"Ah, a good boy who taught me how to fit in with modern society. Taught me how to surf the internet, use my phone, and told me about Bilibili and AC URLs. And also downloaded the Seven Points Chinese Internet APP and mobile Taobao APP for me, and also taught me how to shop online as a good child. Zhang Tong said.

But Jiang Hua couldn't help but shrank his head, hmm? It's hard to say the front, but it's really a good thing to teach online shopping?

Jiang Hua shook his head and continued to ask, "So what is soy sauce Western food?" Jiang Hua really hadn't heard of this thing.

Zhang Tong smiled: "It is a means of using Chinese materials and Chinese cooking techniques to cook Western food." To put it simply, it is a localized Western food in China. ”

"There are two factions of soy sauce Western food, one in Guangzhou and one in Huaihai. Huaihai is also called Shanghai Western food, what I want to do is Shanghai Western food. Zhang Tong said.

After hearing this, Jiang Hua thought thoughtfully: "But this is not authentic Western food." ”

"Ha!" Zhang Tong smiled: "Actually, where is there so much authentic and inauthentic food." It would be nice to adapt to the local tastes. You see, the breakfast shop outside us sells fried steamed buns and also sells curry beef soup. But the beef curry soup we sell at our breakfast shop is definitely not authentic if it is eaten by Indians. ”

"Wherever there is curry that is as clear as water, they must think that the curry soup is slimy. In the end, what to eat and how to eat it has always been based on the individual. ”

Zhang Tong looked at Jiang Hua seriously and said: "It's like giving you one of two choices at noon today: fried pork ribs with hot and sour noodles or raw eggs with salmon roe rice bowl, which one do you choose?"

"Big row of hot and sour noodles. Jiang Hua made a choice without thinking about it.

"Yes, because you are from Sichuan and Chongqing, China, so choose a large row with hot and sour noodles. If it was an Oriental standing in front of me, she would have chosen a rice bowl with raw eggs and salmon roe. It has nothing to do with which food is better. It's just because we like it. ”

Zhang Tong turned his head and said to Jiang Hua seriously: "So, if you like to eat fried pork ribs with hot and sour noodles, do you want to go to the spice shop to choose Sichuan pepper and sea pepper? How about Director Jiang showing his little hand today?"

"Haha! This is really what I'm best at, and I'll show you a hand today. Listening to Zhang Tong say this, Jiang Hua was in a good mood.

I chose sea peppers, picked peppercorns, and bought a box of cloud cake at the dim sum shop at the entrance of the vegetable market to reward Jianghua. followed Zhang Tong to buy vegetables in the vegetable market, and occasionally chatted with Zhang Tong for a few days, which made Jiang Hua, who rarely went to the kitchen and rarely bought vegetables, feel that visiting the vegetable market also had another kind of fun.

Although the crowd is full and the environment is not as good as that of a big supermarket like Wal-Mart, there is another feeling of life here. Looking at Zhang Tong's back, Jiang Hua felt that this man was quite interesting for the first time.
