Chapter Thirty-Eight: An Instant Hit
Lu Cheng just said casually, and didn't really have any objections to the price of crayfish, he ordered a few more dishes and said, "What kind of wine do you have here?"
"We have good farmer-brewed rice wine in our store, and it tastes mellow!" Li Liang said.
"Aren't there any other wines, such as Site?" asked Song Liangren.
"What kind of four special products do you want to drink, let's buy them now!" Li Liang did not miss any opportunity to make money.
"That's it, it's far away from Wei Town or the county seat, you go to the small restaurant of the guest house in our factory to find the director to get two bottles of 54 degrees and four specials, and report my name to Song Liangren!"
"Okay!" Li Liang went to the back kitchen to report the dishes, handed over the menu to Chen Run, and walked to the cement factory.
The cement plant is 100 meters east of the restaurant. This cement plant is the leading enterprise in the county, built at the foot of the mountain, which is full of high-quality limestone, which is a good material for firing cement. The factory was very dusty, and the leaves on both sides of the road were covered with thick dust. found the small restaurant in the guest house, got two bottles of special wine, and when they returned to Wangkelai, Lu Cheng and Song Liangren had already eaten, and a pot full of crayfish had already been eaten by them, and there were high shells piled up on the table.
At this time, there are more and more diners in the store, most of the customers are drivers who come to pull goods, they basically know Song Liangren, the head of the sales section, and from time to time there are guests who greet Song Liangren and hand over two cigarettes. Everyone saw that Song Liangren ate sweetly, and couldn't help but be greedy, and several tables of guests followed and ordered this crayfish, and the big pot of crayfish that Li Liang fried just now quickly bottomed out.
Li Liang saw that everyone loved to eat so much, so he was busy with the teenagers who had already eaten the shrimp outside the house to clean up the remaining shrimp. Carrying the remaining two buckets of shrimp into the kitchen, Chen Li saw Li Liang coming in, and said with a smile: "Brother Liang, you are really good, such a big pot of crayfish has been ordered!"
"Then do you still say that this dish costs oil?" Li Liang quipped.
Crayfish are worthless, what is the point of a little more oil, as long as someone orders a pot of shrimp, the cost of that pot of shrimp will be returned. Chen Li adored, "Brother Liang, you have to make us a big pot when the guests leave." ”
Chen Tao, who was about to help him light the fire, also said, "Zhenhua and I haven't eaten enough!" Chen Tao referred to his little friends.
"No problem, Taotao, hurry up and burn the fire!" Li Liang agreed.
When the business ended at noon, Chen Runyi, who was in charge of the statement, was stunned, and sold 12 pots of crayfish at noon, and the turnover of this piece alone was as high as 36 yuan. Correspondingly, several catties of oil in the kitchen were used, as well as ginger, onions, garlic, dried chili peppers, bean paste, and cooking wine, but no matter how you calculate it, the profit of this dish far exceeds that of other dishes, which also makes the turnover at noon today break through the 150 yuan mark, and the profit is nearly half.
Chen Chunhua fried a few more dishes, beckoned everyone to eat, and several of Chen Tao's friends also sat down.
"Liangzi, you have invented a good dish for our store!" Chen Chunhua said as she sandwiched a shrimp to Li Liang.
"Auntie, I'm also fooling around. Li Liang said modestly, "But in the future, Chen Ze and Chen Tao, you can send two buckets of shrimp every day!"
"No problem, Brother Liang!" Chen Ze promised.
Chen Chunhua thought for a while and said, "Zeze, in the future, if you give your aunt a crayfish, your aunt will give you 1 cent a catty, how about it?"
At this time, no one eats crayfish in the countryside, and most of the crayfish caught are used to feed poultry, and basically no one wants to sell them. A bucket of shrimp has more than ten catties, and two buckets of shrimp a day is an income of two or three yuan, and this thing is easy to fish, and you can get a few buckets in an hour or two. Coupled with the income from selling fish, it is easily a few yuan a day, which is more than the adults in the family. Chen Ze and Chen Tao responded happily. The other three children were also very interested, but they all knew that Chen Chunhua was the aunt of Chen Ze's brothers, and the reason for this high price was opened.
At noon, neither Chenchen nor Zhang Junjie came to the store, Li Liang had lunch, saw that there was still about a pot of crayfish left in the pot, and hurriedly sent it to Chenchen. Chen Ze, Chen Tao and their friends did not have the habit of taking a lunch break at noon, they discussed finding a pond with lotus pods to pick lotus pods to swim, Wang Chao was also very interested, and was ready to follow a few of them to play together.
Li Liang returned to Chenchen's grandmother's house with a pot of crayfish, it was already more than 2 o'clock in the afternoon, and there were several bamboo plaques about 1 meter in diameter under the sun, which were full of steamed sweet potato chips. The house is quiet, and everyone seems to be still taking a nap. When I entered the living room, I saw Chenchen sitting on a bamboo chair in the living room, holding a book in a daze.
"Chenchen, what are you reading?" Li Liang whispered.
Zhang Chen looked up and saw Li Liang coming in with a pot of vegetables, and said, "Liangzi, what are you carrying?"
"Oh, spicy crayfish, you can taste it!" Li Liang said as he brought the crayfish to Chenchen.
"Is it delicious?" asked Chenchen as he grabbed a shrimp.
"You'll know if you taste it!" Li Liang said with a smile.
While the two were talking, Zhang Junjie walked out of the inner room and asked with sleepy eyes, "Sister, what are you eating?"
Li Liang asked Zhang Junjie to catch one and eat it, and after the sister and brother finished eating, their eyes couldn't help but light up, this taste was so delicious, the two of them didn't stop eating.
"Brother Liang, did you do this?" asked Zhang Junjie as he ate.
"Yes, how is it, is it delicious?" Li Liang replied.
"Well, it's delicious, I've never eaten such delicious crayfish!" Zhang Junjie said.
"If it's delicious, let's go fishing in the afternoon later, and continue to cook it for you in the evening!" Li Liang said.
Speaking of crayfish fishing, Zhang Junjie said a little unhappily: "Brother Liang, why don't you take me with you when you go out to play in the morning!"
"You little lazy pig, when Liangzi came over in the morning, you were still sleeping!" Chenchen said teasingly, "If you want to play, remember to get up early in the future!"
After eating shrimp, Zhang Junjie couldn't sit still, he got up late in the morning, and took a nap at noon, it was when he was energetic, he begged Li Liang to go out to fish for crayfish now.
The clock in the house had just struck three times, and it was three o'clock in the afternoon, and the sun was scorching, and it was not necessary to peel off a layer of skin when fishing for shrimp. Li Liang shook his head and refused: "With such a poisonous sun, if you go out to fish for shrimp now, you will be sunburned!
Hearing that he could go swimming in a lotus pod, Zhang Junjie's attention was instantly diverted.
"Okay then, I know where they usually pick up, I'll take you there!" Zhang Junjie lives at his grandmother's house for a period of time every summer, and knows where the Chen Ze brothers often play in the summer.
"Chenchen, I'll take Junjie to pick lotus pods, and I'll bring you a few big ones later!" Li Liang didn't forget to say to Chenchen.
"Well, you have to pay attention to safety!" Chenchen admonished, "Junjie, you have to listen to Liangzi, don't run around, pay attention to safety!"
"Got it, sister!"
