Chapter Twenty-Seven: The American Family Comes Again
Chen Kai said with a smile: "One is filled with loofahs, and the other is filled with eggs." ”
Ding Yuan was stunned: "Loofah, eggs, you wholesale so much, you are ready to rely on loofah scrambled eggs to dominate the rivers and lakes, right?"
Chen Kai smiled and said, "Is there anything you can't do?"
Ding Yuan had an expression of "I really convinced you".
"Big brother, our plan is to make a net profit of 7,000 yuan in three days, at most five days, how much profit can you make from your loofah scrambled eggs, and how much are you going to sell for it?"
Chen Kai was a little puzzled: "How much is it? My family's rice bowl has always been ten yuan." ”
"Ten yuan?" Ding Yuan covered his face with his hand, and after a moment, he put it down and let out a sigh.
"Whew...... Forget it, I'll sell more grilled squid, I still have some old inventory, don't talk to me tonight, I'm going to be open until 11 o'clock, and there are scattered barbecues in the middle of the night. ”
Chen Kai shook his head and said with a smile: "You just sell your skewers, I said, and I will handle the money." ”
Ding Yuan looked at Chen Kai like a fool all the way, and the two came to Chen Ji's booth not far away.
After parking the car, Ding Yuan and Chen Kai carried the big bags and big boxes into the pavilion and piled them up.
Ding Yuan estimated that he attached great importance to the matter of opening a store, and it was rare that he did not continue to talk to Chen Kaikan Dashan today, and went back to his stall to prepare for the opening after saying hello.
Today is the second day after the rainstorm, the efficiency of the property is not bad, and the drainage system is finally dredged.
The food street specially hired cleaning staff to clean up the dead branches and leaves and stagnant water and dirt, probably the last Dragon Boat Festival event earned advertising money, and by the way, several new trash cans were replaced.
The day after the rain, the sun was particularly strong, and the temperature rose sharply, Chen Kai wiped the sweat on his face while opening his mobile phone to look at the real-time temperature, it was not yet noon, it was already 35 degrees.
After the stagnant water and garbage in the food court were cleared, there was still a slight smell of moisture coming out of the ground, but it didn't affect business at all.
All the stall owners are also cleaning their homes in an orderly manner, and most of them have been cleaned up, the stalls of the stalls, and the tables and chairs of the tables and chairs.
It's almost eleven o'clock, yesterday the food street was not opened because of heavy rain and water, and today the property cleaned up the street and posted a large opening notice on the street billboard.
Residents who are accustomed to eating in the food court may have seen the notice in advance, and although they have not yet fully arrived, they have wandered around the street, and there are many people in twos and threes.
Some impatient stall owners have already started to light fires and prepare to greet customers, yes, including Ding Yuan.
Chen Kai looked at Ding Yuan in the east with a serious face and hurriedly began to brush oil on the iron plate, shook his head, and began to prepare step by step.
First, I cleaned up the surroundings roughly, set up the tables, chairs and benches in the dining area, opened the awning, and then brought out the vegetable basins and buckets.
Scoop the raw rice from the rice bucket, put it in an iron basin and wash it two or three times, put the washed rice into a large rice cooker, pour in water and plug it in to steam first.
Chen Kai also experienced the feeling of being wealthy, turned around and took out more than 20 loofahs from the pavilion in one breath, and began to clean.
Holding the cleaning ball in one hand and the loofah in the other, gently rub the skin of the loofah with the cleaning ball, and then rinse with clean water.
After cleaning all the loofahs, they were put into the small vegetable basket, and Chen Kai himself washed his hands carefully, took out a planer, and began to scrape the skin after dividing it by two.
The old skin of each loofah is removed, and a thin inner green skin is left slightly, so that the fried vegetables have more aroma of the loofah, and it is also more conducive to the effect of the loofah to reduce fire.
Chen Kai peeled and cleaned all the more than 20 loofahs, soaked them in a large plastic basin with water to prevent oxidation, and turned around and took out a plate of eggs from the pavilion.
I was just about to start beating eggs, but suddenly I heard a crisp shout from the side.
"Take a look at it, many of the United States have launched a new secret chicken package, try it first and then buy it, and the special offer is only 16 yuan a piece. ”
Why did the people from the American family come to West Street again?
Chen Kai was surprised in his heart, put down the egg in his hand, and saw that the little girl from the United States family at the previous Dragon Boat Festival event was standing on the street holding a plastic loudspeaker to promote.
Next to him, two young men in American uniforms each pushed a fast food station nearby.
Huh, isn't that Li Chao?
Chen Kai was a little surprised, Li Chao, the owner of the Meijia family, actually came to West Street to publicize it in person today.
When he signed up for the Dragon Boat Festival before, after Ding Yuan's introduction, Chen Kai had an impression of Li Chao.
Today, Li Chao put on a work uniform, wore a gold-rimmed full-frame glasses, combed his hair meticulously, and stood behind two male clerks with a calm face.
A few people from the Meijia family walked along the street while pushing the cart, and stopped when they came to Chen Ji's stall after a while.
Unexpectedly, Li Chao actually walked over to Chen Kai, stood in front of the stove, and said calmly:
"You are Chen Kai, hello, I am Li Chao, the owner of Meiduo, and I have been operating on East Street. ”
I don't know what Li Chao is doing, Chen Kai nodded: "Although I haven't communicated much, I'm quite familiar with the American family, I've eaten your set meal, and it tastes very good." ”
Li Chao pursed his lips: "The previous set meal sold well on this food street, after all, people in the small county town have only eaten some cheap food, and they don't have much knowledge." ”
Chen Kai was a little surprised that Li Chao would say this, so he didn't answer, and looked at him quietly.
Li Chao changed his familiar expression and said:
"In the last Dragon Boat Festival event, your secret zongzi won the prize against the street vendors, including my experimental product luxury fat beef rice, which is not an opponent, I haven't congratulated you yet. ”
Chen Kai smiled: "I'm just lucky." ”
"Good luck is also a manifestation of strength, in the past two days, I have thought about it a little seriously, and designed a Thai secret chicken set meal with spicy sauce, if you have time, remember to come and try it." ”
Chen Kai nodded: "If you have a chance, you must try it." ”
Li Chao smiled, turned around and went back to the small food cart to explain to the clerk.
Hu Yuqin was standing next to him and had been secretly watching the excitement, and when she saw Li Chao leaving, she came over and said to Chen Kai while looking around:
"Xiao Chen, what did Li Chao tell you?"
"I didn't say anything, I said that I developed a new course today, so please try it. ”
Hu Yuqin smiled and pouted with some disdain: "You are quite sincere, last time your zongzi pressed him, I think he wants to come here to find the field." ”
Chen Kai scratched his head: "Is it that complicated?"
Hu Yuqin shook her head: "You are still too young, if you didn't come to find a venue, how could Li Chao come by himself."
People have come to the door, what are you going to do today?"
"Donburi rice, isn't it good for rice bowls to sell here? ”
"What's the dish?"
"Loofah scrambled eggs. ”
Hu Yuqin had an incredulous expression: "What? loofah scrambled eggs?
Chen Kai smiled and shook his head: "I bought a lot of loofahs this morning, I'm afraid I can only do this for the past two days, I urgently need money now, it's too expensive to buy meat, and you can save some costs by buying eggs." ”
Hu Yuqin shook her head, laughed sharply, and said with mockery: "Xiao Chen, your awareness of operating cost control is really worth learning from me, okay, get busy." ”
Seeing Hu Yuqin twisting the bucket waist back to the stall, Chen Kai suddenly came back to his senses.
Aren't you going to crack eggs?
